A Little Bit About Me...

I truly enjoy working with students of all ages. It doesn't matter what they don't know because I believe anyone can be taught anything, at least as long as you have the right teacher and materials at your disposal. I believe students are like little sponges. They're taking in everything around them. Obviously, if you fill their heads with garbage, they will learn garbage. However, if you fill their heads with quality information, you explain it in a way that they understand, and you make it fun for them to learn, then they will learn everything you're trying to teach. There are thousands of educators, but only a few real teachers who can get a message across in such a way that the student doesn't just do the work, they UNDERSTAND what they're doing and why. As far as I'm concerned, if a student doesn't learn something, it's not because he didn't try. It's because I failed to teach him i ... read more

As a graduate of Indiana University, I was driven to academic success as a Dean's List student in attaining a degree in Business Management. During my time at Indiana I tutored students in English, Social Studies, Math, and History. The students ranged from elementary to college level and my retention for these students from year to year was nearly 100%. Now that I am here in Florida I want to continue to tutor, mentor, and foster educational improvement.
I love helping students succeed. I believe all students are capable of academic success. However, I have come to learn that learning styles differ greatly and to be an effective tutor it is imperative to analyze the student and find the most effective tutoring style that suits his or her learning style. My goal is to improve results through patience, hard-work, and confidence building. I believe a good educator can make a world of ... read more

Teaching for me was not a job, but my life. Greeting my students daily in the hallway was a joy. Every day with my students was a challenge to make it better the the day before. I truely love working with children. I believe that avery child can learn, although some may need a different approach. Each child has a way of learning and understanding information. I find it a challenge to find that the specific approach that will trigger learning. Making a child believe that he /she can learn is the first step. My style is to connect with a student, get to know his/her needs, meet those needs, and show that I care.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am passionate about all students having an equal opportunity to learn. I believe all children can and will learn if given the right environment. I empower and encourage students through many different strategies. Making learning fun and exciting is often the tool that is missing in the classroom as well as differentiated instruction. Students learn though discovery and using all senses. I incorporate music as well since it has power to change moods and make connections in learning. I inspire students to make a difference in their own lives by empowering them to achieve success.
As a graduate of Florida State University I always have had a passion for music and education. I have earned a BS and MS in Specific Learning Disabilities, Varying Exceptionalities, and English Speakers of Other Languages. I have always had a desire to work with students who have difficulties learni ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Depending on the subject I use a highly academic and focussed style of teaching. If it is communication like English, Writing and Journalism , I use a lot of teacher-generated materials. I am very flexible and would like to meet the needs of a particular student by administering some kind of a skill inventory survey to identify his or her style of learning. An inventory of his interests and skills will also be a good tool for me to assess the student's strengths.
I taught public school in Florida from K-12 for the last 16 years. I taught for more than 10 years in the private school. I am still teaching part-time at a private company. My passion for teaching and the diverse subjects and levels of students that I have taught are two of my great assets that can be very useful in the tutoring profession. I teach to help my student reach his or her highest potentia ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I began tutoring as a para-educator for the Tacoma school district in 1997. While I worked at two different elementary schools, I tutored children in all grades and all subjects, with a focus in reading and writing. I facilitated my own reading circle with the fourth graders, tutored the first graders in how to tell time and count money, and conducted science experiments with the third graders to name a few of my accomplishments. My life's journey has also taken me down the path of teaching English as a Second Language. I tutored Asian children 12-18 years of age with minimal understanding of the English language. I have also tutored ESL privately. While going to school to obtain my ECE degree, I had to complete a practicum. Within this learning arena, I completed three months as a preschool teacher which helped me hone my skills as a facilitator of learning. While attending the ... read more

I started in 2001, teaching in a Pre-K Classroom with thirty students. I taught them the early foundation skills that led them to gain the necessary information to prepare for Kindergarten and beyond. I am now teaching in a Kindergarten classroom and tutoring students during the day that are below level, preparing them for the Stanford tests and helping them build the necessary skills so that they will be prepared for the Stanford tests and FCAT in the upcoming years. I have tutored elementary and middle school students in math, English, and reading comprehension. I am presently in graduate school working towards my M.ED in Elementary Education. I am excited about helping students learn and acquire new information that will be benefit them for a lifetime.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have taught to all ages in many different settings and subjects. I find one on one tutoring to be the most rewarding and effective. I would not only teach students to create a positive learning environment but work to build study and learning habits to nurture their knowledge and critical thinking skills in a developmentally appropriate manner for each age group and skill level.
I have my Florida state teachers certification a strong letters of recommendation from my previous principals and have years of experience teaching k-12 students. A few of my career high lights are as follows, I have taught both disadvantaged children in Brooklyn, NY and gifted and talented highschool students in MD, as well as substitute teaching in all subjects for the Teachers 2000 Program. I am currently working toward my master’s degree in art education from The George Washington University.

My teaching style would be based on the direct method of teaching. I like to show my students the way to the information or how to solve a problem and then have the student find their way to solving a problem. Working with these special students is very satisfying. Being able to watch them be successful and feel that they can is the greatest experience in the world. I believe that ALL children can learn. This is why the strategy of differentiated instruction is so crucial to a special needs child. I attempt to work based on the difficulty the student is having. I love to see my students succeed and feel like they are special. This makes all my efforts worthwhile. I would like to be able to extend my love and commitment of education.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love Reading myself and enjoy passing on that love to students. I enjoy working one on one or in small groups with students, which allows you to really see the growth and progress. I believe all children have an innate ability to learn; but some simply need more than the traditional classroom setting provides. I believe in using the student's learning style, and building upon that to strengthen their areas of need.
I have been a special education teacher for 10 years, teaching primarily Reading, although I have taught other subjects. I have tutored numerous students both privately and through a local tutoring organization and the Learning Resource Center of Polk County. Through my educator preparation and Master's degree programs at Warner University, I was taught to treat students as individuals and to utilize their areas of strength in order to remediate their areas of nee ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Throughout my 21 years of teaching, my desire to pass on my love for education to children has never wavered. All children should be provided with the opportunity to learn all that they can. Everyone is an individual and must be provided with the tools that will enable them to succeed. As a teacher: I am patient, respectable and creative. Teaching is not just about textbooks, but about providing students with other tools to enhance their learning experience. Working together, we can make a difference.
