Shayla Brown
Tutoring/Homework Assistant, Hollywood
My name is Shayla Brown and I am currently one the GED Tutors and Homework Assistant staff members working in the Education Department for the Seminole Tribe of Florida. I have always adored working with children and have done so for a number of years. I find it both exciting and rewarding. In fact, I cannot imagine any other profession that would bring me such joy! I even volunteer my time working in the Nursery, Youth Department and Dance Team at my church. My educational background is in Psychology, but in terms of my philosophy of education, I am dedicated to working hard to help students find their strengths and build upon those strengths to reach their highest potential.
I am here to offer assistance in any way that I possibly can and believe in creating a positive learning environment that facilitates thinking, where students feel safe to push themselves, engage their minds, encourage risk and cultivate dreams. I love seeing that "light bulb" moment when students grasp a difficult concept. I believe that all children are capable and have a desire to learn. I let children know that I want them to always do their PERSONAL BEST!
I take immense pride in building relationships and having a good report with the students and families I am fortunate to work with. I, myself am the mother of a little girl; so I understand firsthand the joys and challenges that come from navigating the Educational System; and communicate, educate and guide my students in the same manner I would want for my own daughter.
I believe that each student is a unique lantern awaiting a spark to ignite their natural passion for learning. As an educator, I believe it is my responsibility to spark the flame of knowledge that will illuminate their future.
During my free time, I enjoy watching movies, listening to music, eating good food and appreciating great company.
Favorite quote: “Be the blessing you wish to receive.”
I am committed to supporting your children/child and look forward to meeting and sharing my excitement for learning with you all.
