My style tends to range based on who I am trying to teach, and I suppose is most accurately labeled as adaptive. I understand that different people learn things in different ways, and so I try to accommodate that with my teaching. For instance if I found that a student learns better visually then I would attempt to use visual cues and examples in lesson plans to make the material as easy to understand as possible. I also believe in keeping a very loose and pleasant atmosphere, and making sure that everyone feels comfortable and safe, which I believe also assists in the learning process. My first major mentoring/teaching experience occurred in college when I began leading study groups and eventually organizing tutoring sessions with a number of my fellow English, Calculus, and Physics students. I then obtained a position as a youth counselor with the YMCA and quickly moved up t

My experiences as the oldest of seven children instilled in me the desire to educate others, so I obtained my BS degree in Biology and Secondary Education. I taught 7th and 8th grade sciences for five years before staying home to be a full time mother and substitute teaching on the high school level for 3 more years. I operated a small daycare during my children's growing years before returning to work fulltime in the business world. I have trained, mentored and supervised many, many young people over the years and still enjoy great personal reward from helping them grow as individuals, gain self-confidence and learn. I feel that the most important step to being an effective teacher is to make the material relevant. If the student does not see a relevant reason to learn the material, the learning curve will be much steeper. Then, I work hard to be sure the student understands my com

I am able to relate to students using their learning style and references that connect them to the material for better success. I am patient and use my sense of humor to figure out how a student learns to get the best results. I do not believe that one method works for everybody. I have a lot of experience with students with learning challenges. I love it when a student says "Wow." I like to support and reward their path to understanding. It's best when you see that they are proud of themselves and they did it! After graduating with a double major in Psychology and English with an emphasis in Literature, I started my graduate work in English and a teaching position as a high school English teacher. I took education certification courses and passed the state exam for the State of Florida for middle school and high school English. I was an instructional aide for Adult Education at Martin C

I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education from the University of Missouri in 1993. Since graduation, I have acquired 15 years of experience through classoom teaching, tutoring and educational coaching. Most of my classroom experience was spent teaching 5th grade. I tutored elementary students for 12 years, and was recently trained as a Reading Coach. My certifications are in the areas of Elementary Education 1-8, Reading 4-8, and Social Studies 4-8. My greatest strength is making learning fun and academic, so students are engaged and excited about what is being taught. Almost all students get excited about learning when it is presented in a manner that fits their learning style and is appropriate for their ability/level. Assessment of both is mandatory before you can begin effective and meaningful instruction. Once these assessments are completed, learning obj

I started tutoring at a learning center where I tutored children ages 5-17. I tutored every subject including the FCAT test. I decided to offer private tutoring on my own and travel to the students' houses. I found that the students felt more comfortable and it also gave me chance to discuss the progress of the child with parents to a better extent. I then became involved with a program dealing with foster care children who were court ordered to receive tutoring. Many of the cases were challenging and required much more patience and compassion than I had needed in the past, but it is always rewarding to see a child learn and grow. The subject that students need the most help with is math. I have noticed the differences in difficulty when trying grasp mathematical concepts and have found ways to somewhat cater to their specific trouble areas. It is very important to give lots of e

I am a graduate student in the PhD program in physics at Florida International University. I have a very strong academic background in both physics and mathematics and have completed my M.S. degree in physics in 2009. I have a lot of experimental research experience, approximately 5 years experience. I also have approximately 3 years of teaching experience teaching introductory physics and astronomy labs as well as fundamentals in problem solving for general physics at Florida International University. Therefore, I have experience teaching in the class room as well as in the laboratory. I first begin by determining what areas of a students particular subject do they know and which areas are they struggling with so we can begin to target those areas they are struggling with by focusing on which concepts the students have a particularly hard time grasping.

As a student at Plymouth State College, I learned a great deal in the early childhood education field. I learned to refresh my english, writing, and reading skills, with extensive research papers and essays, as well as the observations I completed at day cares. During my four and a half years of college education, I was a volunteer teacher's aide, which I had started when I was in tenth grade (high school). I tutored children in mathematics, and spelling, for grades two and three. I got most of my experience from working one-on-one with the children and had a great mentor there. I love working with children, however my main focus is on elementary (grades Pre-K through third grade). I believe that every child deserves to be successful at something, whether it's math, or soccer, or even spelling bee's. My favorite subjects in school were always math, reading, and english; therefore t
