As a 2012 graduate of Temple University’s College of Education, I have student teaching experience on the sixth and seventh grade levels, as well as, teaching and directing experience in a qualified pre-school, and have assisted students within both suburban and urban school districts. Recently, I finished student teaching within a sixth grade general education classroom. This position enabled me to provide these students with a comprehensive curriculum in mathematics, literacy, social studies, and science. I was challenged to actively provide a positive classroom climate, create an interesting curriculum, and keep the students engaged in learning. In my junior year at Temple University, a passion for, ‘Going Green’ created an opportunity for me to aid in the construction of Greenworks Preschool Academy. This position allowed me to design the curriculum, mission statement, and daily

My beliefs about teaching are to educate and challenge students to become skillful communicators, independent thinkers, and life-long learners. I believe every child has a different learning style. Learning should occur in a safe, supportive, and stimulating environment. I will be accepting of my all my students as individuals and encourage them to do the same with their peers. It is my belief that children are at various levels of intellectual, emotional, social and physical development. Therefore, I will be oriented toward the unique students’ needs and interests and I will provide a flexible educational program. I received my B.S degree The Pennsylvania State University and my Masters Elementary Education from the University of Phoenix. I have always known that I wanted to become a teacher. I believe educating our future, our children, is one of the most important jobs anyone could

My teaching style is one in which I find ways to relate content to the students' everyday lives. I like to balance textbook knowledge with practical applications and cultural relevance. I also am a firm believer in planning lessons that require higher order thinking skills yet do not become overwhelming. Since the beginning of the era in which the special education population has began being mainstreamed into regular education classrooms in most schools, I have developed a great practice of differentiated instruction. I also am aware that there are people who are a specific learning style as well as the people that are a combination of any two or three learning styles. That's who I teach for. I like to tell people that i did not choose teaching; rather I believe it chose me. I have always worked with children that were struggling whether it was socially or academically. I was typically w

Mathematics is a joy and privilege to teach students because of its extensive relationship to the world and connection to everyday life. I believe that you need to relate to a child’s prior knowledge in order to gain an understanding of future material. I value a child’s discovery of a topic and act as a guide in my students learning. I challenge my students to think critically but also acknowledge their need to learn differently. One benefit of mathematics is the ability to teach a topic various ways so that all children can succeed. Using manipulative, visuals and technology my students can master material in a way that is meaningful to their learning style. I have always been intrigued by mathematics especially it’s connection and explanations for various fields of science. By teaching my students the foundations of math I have grown to enjoy and appreciate it even more. I look

I believe teaching others a skill or new information is a gift, to both myself and the student. When the light goes off in their head, and the "I got it!" look comes across their face, I feel a sense of accomplishment. I am very patient, and understand that each student learns at their own speed. Additionally, I know that each student is different, which will sometimes require a new teaching technique. I believe everyone can learn; sometimes it just takes the right teacher for the right student. I was a teaching assistant for three of my four years at the University of Delaware. I taught courses, as well as tutored students and graded exams. Additionally, I have a great deal of experience in sciences and english, specifically biology and microbiology, as well as excellent grammar skills.

As a graduate student at Immaculata University, I have learned what it means to be an effective teacher. I will be student-teaching 11th and 12th grade English at Renaissance Academy in the fall. I have also been hired as the head men's golf coach at Valley Forge Christian College and have worked with kids of all ages at my church for the past 3 years. Additionally, I have worked as a band coach at the Rock & Roll After School in Phoenixville. I firmly believe in affirming the gifts/talents in each child that I come in contact with. I believe that by working hard and being creative that I can inspire your child to achieve his/her goals. I am assertive, creative and encouraging. My number one goal is to get to know who I am working with and focus on their strengths.

As a teacher of highly technical subjects for secondary students, I believe over the last 15 years in the classroom I have exhibited an energetic and enthusiastic style which draws my students into the subject matter. Using interesting anticipatory sets to start the lesson- whether it's a discussion on the physics of sports cars, athletics, music, or technology- I believe I help give students a reason to be interested. From that point, I use an interactive teaching style which allows students a chance to demonstrate their mastery through carefully calibrated examples to allow them to master each concept before going on to the next. Using a slow steady approach, I believe I can enable students to recall their key math skills and then to apply them in Physics class. Some students have even told me that Physics was fun for them! I believe I can bring this level of expertise and enthusiasm t

As a former business owner, part-time educator, and father of two, I can say with certainty that I have been constantly instructing or teaching in one form or another for the past 15 years. As my children and previous students will attest, I have a calm patience when it comes to educating, particularly I think because education and learning did not come easy to me as a young student. I was always a visual learner who needed examples and samples to help guide me and I have always tried to provide the same visual learning atmosphere whenever I have been an instructor. I always appreciated when a teacher or professor was accessible to answer my questions and have followed suit in my brief teaching career. I have both a BA and MA in English and have taught and tutored at a variety of levels including time spent at the Community College of Philadelphia. As a result of over eight years of e

As a recent college graduate from Temple University, I learned the techniques and disciplines to excel in my education as well as developing the drive to instill this practice in others. I have earned a BA in Mathematics, with other substantial course work in Philosophy, Physics and Music, showing I am a well rounded individual who can adapt teaching methods to accommodate a struggling student. I have current work experience at Kumon Math and Reading Center, where I am the primary math instructor. Learning to explain the same material in different ways has really help my success as a tutor. I have also tutored privately at Temple University for the last 3 years. My success lies in the ability to explain the same material in many different ways. There is no one way for all children to learn. I have a passion for teaching that is insatiable. Seeing my students become as excited about a con
