Florida Tutors

Students have to experience success. This is done by recognizing strengths and needs of each individual student. Once you know a student you can challenge and motivate them, while working towards eventual interdependence.
I believe that education should act as a mirror. Essentially students should have an opportunity to see themselves and their lives reflected in their studies in order to design a meaningful and relevant learning environment.
From my educational experiences, I know how valuable teacher encouragement and motivation is for personal motivation. I motivate students while teaching them to be intrinsically motivated through challenging yet supportive lessons and assignments.
