I have been working with children for several years. I started by teaching dance at a local dance studio while I was in high school. It was from this experience that I chose to go to college to become a teacher. I have a degree in Elementary Education and am ESOL certified. I have experience as a substitute teacher and have worked with both elementary and middle school students. I understand that all children learn differently and I am able to adapt my teaching style to fit the child. I am both patient and positive and I like to give the student confidence. My goal is to not only help the child learn, but to also give them a sense of confidence. It is important that each student believe in his or herself as well as their capabilities.

I enjoy teaching children of all ages. With the continuous stress on academic achievement it is of great importance to excel at every level. I believe everyone has their strengths and weaknesses and it is up to a teacher/tutor to find the patience to help their student discover not only their strengths but to strengthen their weaknesses as well. Education is the backbone to a well-developed, successful society and everyone should be given the opportunity to succeed in every aspect of it. As a University of Delaware graduate and a current MBA student I pride myself on my education. Throughout my carreer as a competative figure skater, education has been a priority and I feel it is the foundation to a person's successes in every aspect of life. Studying art history in college I was able to gain extensive experience in research and writing as well as a variety of basic college level courses

I wholeheartedly believe in the power of education. I believe that education is the key to our freedom in life. I hope to teach this philosophy to my students. As a teacher, I would describe myself as laid-back and patient. I have found that my patience is what helps me in helping students comprehend the information they are learning. I teach to every learning style and intelligence. I believe all children can learn much more than we expect of them, they just have to be taught the way they learn. Diversity is what makes our world go around, and that is what I teach to my students. Growing up, I never thought that I would want to be a teacher. After taking a job as a Childcare Counselor with the YMCA, I realized the I was meant to teach and work with children. I have been working with the YMCA for close to three years. I graduated from Manatee Community College with my Assoc

I am a very passionate and dedicated teacher. I strive to be a positive role model for my students and I provide compassion that children need at such a fragile stage in life. I believe that children learn best when engaged and involved in the learning process. I provide goals to children and hold them accountable for their learning. Children need positive encouragement and timely and constructive feedback. I want to place a positive, lasting impression on my students and give children a positive view towards learning early on in life. As a graduate at Baldwin-Wallace College, I was very equipped for a teaching position in the Elementary level. I spent many hours in the classroom during my college experience and received a Bachelor of Science in Education and a Reading Endorsement. My teaching experience continued when I got a position as a first grade teacher at Guy B. Teachey El

Teaching is my passion and I thoroughly enjoy working with children. I especially enjoy working independently with children to help their social and academic needs. I strongly believe all children can learn; the mission is finding out HOW they learn. I believe once a child learns HOW they are unique, and how they learn, then they will become life long learners and will become eager and confident to learn. Creating a confident life long learner is my goal. I seek to first identify strengths in every child and use that as my foundation to build their knowledge upon. As an Education major graduate I am driven to challenge and reinforce students in order to obtain a high level of performance. In college I achieved a triple minor in English, Psychology and Science. I did this with the intent that strong content knowledge will greatly affect student achievement along with excellent teaching st

I believe in every child or person's ability to learn no matter what the challenge presented. I believe everyone has a unique way of learning and the key lies in capitalizing on the appropriate learning style. Patience is vital when teaching something new and to be one of my biggest strengths. I will do everything possible to ensure that your child excels. I am also willing to work with different cultures respecting all aspects of the same. As a native of another country, I was placed in the position of having to adapt and learn the English language quite quickly. Six months after my arrival, I was helping other children learn the language. In the years that have followed, I have had the pleasure of teaching/tutoring children and young people in the core academic subjects as well as diverse areas such as dance, language arts, etiquette, personal hygiene, self-esteem, and job skills.

All children are capable of meeting and or exceeding potential expectations if given the chance. Every child is different and must be evaluated in such manner to meet and exceed these expectations. Students given diverse learning experiences find they are more confident and are more willing to strive to meet and exceed these expectations. As an educator, I strive to bring out this confidence and passion in my students. I currently have completed 7 years in the North Carolina school system with a documented record of success as a middle school Theatre Arts and Dance teacher. I will be settled in Tampa, FL within the next month. In college, I worked for the Dean of Academic Affairs, initially conducted tasks for a photographer, local top 40 radio station, NBC and FOX affiliate upon graduation, and have done promotional modeling throughout the years. Ultimately, my goal is to go back to sch

I love children as of ages, and am eager to teach the writing skills, hoping they can find as much joy in writing as I do. I am patient and understanding, having worked with mentally ill persons both in my job, and in my volunteer work. I enjoy working one on one with students and believe every student can look within themselves and discover their true potential if encouraged properly. Having a great love for learning, I strive to achieve the highest level of education. I have an Associates degree in Secondary Education from HCC. During this time I completed 45 hours of observation with elementary and high school students. I earned my Bachelors degree from USF, majoring in English-Creative Writing. Here, I learned the skills I would need to teach my future students the joy of writing. I am currently working to attain ABA approved paralegal certification; in this field writing and gramm

In my current job, I feel I am a strong trainer because I am able to determine people's learning styles. By determining their style, I am able to train them in the way that they will learn more quickly. In tutoring, I would have the skills to determine how the child will learn the information. Some children might work better by watching someone else solve the problem while explaining the steps. Some might learn by just reading a complete step-by-step process. Some students may want to try the problem on their own, and then explained where they went wrong. They may also want a combination, by doing the problem themselves while the tutor talks them through. I have trained employees in all of those ways, based on their personal learning styles. I would be able to complete the same process with children. I have been in management for six years. In those six years, I have found the mos

Throughout high school and college I tutored algebra, statistics, anthropology, English and sciences. I am very excited to be able to help students again as I continue my own education. I am currently attending the University of South Florida for both a masters and a doctorate degree and have experience and education in math and writing. Individual students have different ways of learning. It is important that I help them find their own unique way to comprehend the subjects they are studying. I truly enjoy working with kids of all ages and use my own experiences to help them remember and understand what they are studying. I love to help students understand concepts in many different subjects by using fun and interesting ways to memorize things.

I love interacting with children. I believe that everyone has the ability to learn any subject given the approprate attention and attitude. The greatest pleasure for me is seeing the faces of these children when they understand something that they were having difficulty with. My overall goal and objective is to just to help and if I can reach one child I would consider that a success. I have not had any formal experience teaching however I did take two semesters of early childhood education in college as well as two semesters of internship in elementary schools. I have tutored several students including my younger brother and his classmates. I feel that my broad education and personal experience as well as my personality encourages as well as inspires the children I have tutored. I tutored students in English, Algebra and Geometry.
