My teaching style is based on; first instilling in the student that they "can" learn and there is nothing they cannot achieve. I teach them through building on successes and the skills they already know, then introduce new skills and practice applying them to real life situations where this step allows the students to see the relevancy of what they are doing. I believe in providing a multitude of verbal praise for each step of learning. I believe in encouraging students to ask questions and not be afraid to say for the one hundreth time, "I dont get it".
My work experience over the last 25 years has been a variety of private tutoring, public schools, and a residential treatment center. I have experience working with all ages of children from kindergarten to college level. I specialize in teaching children with learning disabilites, or students who seem to struggle with learning ... read more

My compassionate teaching style is relaxed; stressing self-discipline and time management skills while learning to focus on the fundamental concepts in any discipline in a concrete and consecutive manner. Positive recognition and rewarding good behavior is a fundamental part of my style including clearly communicating the subject matter in a concise, practical, sequential manner from the the basic simpler material to the more difficult material, one step at a time. I hope to help all students that I meet to first and foremost feel good and positive about their abilities and themselves and strive to achieve their educational goals and do their best.
As a graduate of Florida International University with a Master of Science in Education, I learned the importance of teaching by studying various subjects to enhance my teaching abilities and help me communicate in a positive and clear ... read more
