I am an Elementary Education Major at the University of Florida and have helped many students succeed in all subject areas, with a strong focus on Elementary Education. Some subjects that I particularly tutor in include: math, science, english, social studies, and language arts. I also supply a student with supplemental material I feel will help them learn better and at their own, individual pace. For instance, I believe that some students may learn better through visual exercises, and them others may learn through auditory (hearing) exercises. Either way, I try to figure out what a students learning style is and work on that with a student.

I believe that all students can learn. It's just a matter of finding the instructional style that matches their learning style. I am a firm believer in the theory of multiple intelligences, developed by Dr. Howard Gardner and adapted to the education field by Thomas Armstrong. It's not how smart you are, but how are you smart! To me there is nothing better than seeing the lightbulb go on in students' eyes when they "get it." My job as a teacher is to figure out how to bring each individual student to that point and guide all of them to reach their fullest potential. I have 19 years experience as a high school teacher. In that time, I have taught several different English classes and reading. I have been a department chairperson, a reading coach, and have taught a variety of graduate level education courses to teachers as well. I was honored as Wentzville High School teacher of the

For the past four years, I have dedicated my life to training dolphins and mentoring and educating guests, interns, and junior trainers alike on conservation, morphological, psychological, behavioral, and research topics related to the marine animal field. I have taught lectures at high schools, colleges, and adult seminars on marine mammal biology, and in general psychology. My high-performance at the University of New Hampshire provided me with opportunities to tutor other students struggling in areas in the fields of Biology, English and Russian languages. My academic experience and my career have provided me with countless educational experiences with all age groups. My background in dolphin training and my experience in tutoring and educating has taught me that positive reinforcement is the most effective way to teach. My teaching methods have inspired people to take initiative to

I follow Gardner's Theory of Learning Styles, students do not learn in the same way, as a tutor you must look for the approach that is right for the student. Also, working with at risk students, who have experienced failure in traditonal school settings, an educator must work on the negative beliefs of the student, including that the student sees themselves as "dumb" and " not able to learn." One or 2 point increase on a TABE test, needs to be recognized. I enjoy working with students to asist them in discovering the joy of learning, the feeling of succes when they achieve a goal of passing a test or completing an assignment. I have professional experience as a Career Development Counselor working with at risk youth, assisting the students develop their education and career goals. I have taught classes part time at a post secondary private school for 2 years. Also, I have tutored el

I truly enjoy working with children and realize each child has a unique way of learning. Tutoring allows this one-on-one contact to discover how each child learns best. My teaching style focuses on improving a child’s memory and understanding of subjects. I like to alternate subject examples with practice to develop the student’s problem-solving strategies. I also help the student connect abstract concepts with things they can relate to in their own life. I use a lot of positive reinforcement and encouragement. To promote long term understanding I ask the student questions to encourage the student’s explanation to foster a deeper understanding of concepts. My teaching degree is in Special Education with certification to teach Elementary School and children with Learning Disabilities. I’ve worked with children and teens in schools, teaching reading to adults, and art education to b

Along with tutoring, I have also led clinics on learning styles and how to discover the ways you learn. Because of this, I am able to help a student who may not know the ways by which they learn best. I can not only help them discover effective study skills to use while alone, but I can adapt the way I teach however I need. My philosophy is to teach a student to become self-sufficient when it comes to studying and learning. The day a student no longer needs me is the day for which I strive. During most of my time in college, I tutored my peers. Striving for degrees in Biology and Chemistry, I was required to take a wide range of math and science courses. Because of the wide range of classes I took, I was able to use what I learned to help others and break things down into a way they could understand. Also, because I was a science major, I am able teach the proper ways to write and struct

I have earned a management degree and in my professional experience, I have trained employees for 20 yrs. I have always been the manager to whom the staff will go to for questions and answers. I am very approachable, and I pride myself in the fact that I am like a psychologist, teacher, and friend to my staff. In my personal experience, I have raised two children, tutored them through the years, and also, volunteered in both of their classrooms and helped other students who may have required additional assistance to achieve their goals. I enjoy working with children. I sometimes wish my children were still of school age because I miss the atmosphere of the classroom. I am a strong advocate that any child can succeed, as long as they are given the necessary tools to help them achieve. I also believe that patience is a virtue that many people do not hold to anymore, which results in

Each child is different. I always try to notice and acknowledge what benefits each student, as I think this applies to all forms of teaching from academics to athletics. Getting on their level is what ultimately benefits the child from the get go and gains their interest. If I'm interested, then the child is interested. I do my best to make sure the child is setting their goals and doing their best to achieve them in the way and style for which they are best suited. I have two bachelors degrees, however, I believe it is my experience teaching children that has helped me develop a good sense on how to approaching teaching scenarios. I have years of experience teaching children in academics, music, and dramatic arts, as well as coaching basketball and teaching golf at the professional level.
