Social Studies Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Port Saint Lucie, FL

I believe in the constructionist theory of education, children come with some knowledge of the world and need that to be the basis of anything new they learn. Build on the ideas they already have and make learning fun. I have lead several study groups with varying success. Students need to discover that the education they seek is well within their grasp. I have tutor students of various ages and learning levels, no one is unteachable and every student has the potential to grasp any concept. Students need the proper motivation and learning to be fun and engaging. When abstract concepts are related to real world subject matter students grasp the ideas with more success. It is my goal to help your learner find uses for everything they feel that they learn in school without purpose.

Each and every student is capable of success, no exceptions.No two students are alike; therefore, they do not learn the same way. Consequently, it is up to the teacher to explore what works best with each child in order to lead them on their path of academic success. I am passionate about teaching and I believe in learning through doing. Providing students with an opportunity to actively participate in their education by creating visual arts projects, multimedia activities and portfolios enhances their confidence as well as comprehension. As a life long learner, I have committed myself to the field of Education. Teaching is my passion and it empowers me to share my education, training and experiences with students. In addition to my Bachelor of Arts in History and Graduate level classes in Education, I am a graduate of the Educator Preparation Institute at Indian River State College.I ha
