Every student has strengths and weaknesses, and these should be determined for efficient tutoring. I believe in helping the student to learn and making sure they have the knowledge and help to understand the material themselves.
I have eight years of tutoring experience for students ranging from second grade to high school seniors. This tutoring has been in a variety of topics, from elementary phonics to high school geometry to handwriting. I have also had experience in tutoring for standardized tests such as the SAT, ACT, and FCAT.

More About This Tutor...

As a Social Science teacher, I have worked with middle school and high school students. I currently teach reading at Daytona State College in the Adult Education Department. I have tutored students in the fields of social science, math, language arts, English, and job interview skills.
I love teaching and I am great at it. I believe that anyone can learn anything if the information is presented in a certain matter. I have used soccer to teach math, pool to teach geometery, current event to teach history. I like to use a hands-on approach to learning. Students need to see, hear, and write information to remember it long term. They also need to understand why and believe it is important information to learn.

I have always been of the opinion that a teachers' job is to inspire students and assist them in becoming the best they can be in life. I am patient and have an innate ability to know what a student needs to learn and how they learn.I believe in a combination of structure, enjoyment and imagination while learning. Students have personally thanked me for what I taught them.
As a graduate of a highly regarded private school I was able to expand on what I had already learned being a music prodigy and traveled through 5 countries in Europe on music scholarship I added Education to that experience and have not only some very good experience in the Arts but obtained a Masters' Equivalent in Social Services as well as over 6 years experience in ESE. I am highly qualified in ESE Language Arts, have taught Consumer Math as well and I am highly qualified in Music.

More About This Tutor...

I have a diverse background in teaching/tutoring. I have been a high school English teacher and a substitute teacher. Also, I have tutored for agencies as well as independently. The subjects I have tutored include English, composition, mathematics, geometry, and SAT preparation.
I like to use the Socratic style of teaching combined with using examples from historical and current events to convey an idea. I like for students to comprehend an idea through their own effort, guided by relevant questions from me. Finally, I want to instill in students a natural love of learning and curiosity about the world that they live in.

As a life long learner, the parent of two school age children, and a business professional, I continue to be intrigued and encouraged by the willingness of students to learn. As an adult student earning a bachelors and masters degree, I gained a passion for education as I was not the typical college student. Rather, I was a very typical high school student, and later a part time college student, who was not prepared for college. My passion is to bring out the best learner any student can be, plain and simple. Through my work as a school board member and Junior Achievement volunteer classroom teacher, I have expanded my passion for education.
As indicated previously, I believe all children can learn. More importantly, parents and teachers can learn a great deal from their children, specifically by listening and recognizing what motivates, excites, and draws the child in. I am e ... read more

I was the valedictorian of my graduating high school class and one of the top high school math and science students in the nation, but I was not always a stellar student. For instance, I received a “D” in math in the second grade. I attribute my transformation to an "A" student at least partially to my third grade teacher in whose class my math grades improved dramatically and I jumped from the lowest to the highest reading group. She helped boost my confidence, made me feel like I could actually do better, and made me excited about learning. My tutoring reflects my strong belief that achieving some or all of the latter can positively impact students' long-term learning.
I am just as comfortable tutoring students in math and science as in reading and writing. As a secondary school student, I received a number of top science honors, such as first place honors in several state scienc ... read more

Teaching is my passion. In the near future, I don't see myself doing anything else but that. My main objective in teaching is not only to promote learning of the subject matter, but also to help the students learn to think logically, learn problem-solving methods and techniques clearly and concisely, explain step-by-step processes and provide valid reasons for logical arguments. I just love to teach.
The position that I applied for is to teach/tutor College Algebra or advanced mathematics and physics. In term of education, I have a degree in Electrical Engineering with many hours in Mathematics. Regarding experience, I had taught Math from Entry Level up to Calculus at JLF University

A Little Bit About Me...

I like the Socratic methodology - asking lots of probing questions that help students eventually come to "see" the correct answer for themselves. I also use humor and current references to keep my teaching relevant and interesting to my students.
My professional career has been in the field of private club management. I currently serve as a Principal & Senior Partner in Master Club Advisors. As part of my duties, I have given professional development programs, leadership orientations and strategic planning sessions to individual private club leaders, students, and international club managers associations on six continents. I am the only person to have twice been named the club industry “Educator of the Year”. I have published two books, with my third due out later this year.

My educational background is stellar. The most important tool that I have acquired during all of those years, however, is NOT memorization, NOT spelling or grammar - it's the ability to THINK. Looking at the "Big Picture" enables me to see beyond the immediate problem, to find long-term, sustainable solutions. This skill extends across disciplines--whether they be English, mathematics, history or Spanish.
I believe in "Yes, You Can!", instead of "No, You Can't." Positive reinforcement and an emphasis upon disciplinary "best practices" can fertilize the seeds of personal and academic growth. In particular, I believe in focusing upon HOW a student learns. For instance, if a student learns visually, I like to tailor learning strategies toward that student's strength.

I have many years of experience working in the business field as well as tutoring and mentoring young individuals. My strong points are math, reading and english. Therefore, I have learned extensive grammatical skills due to my writing ability.
To make learning interesting and fun to the student, I use the participation approach to teaching. This interactive process makes the student interested in learning. I have taught on the college level as well as high school and leanred that this is the best approach.

I enjoy teaching and tutoring students because I really gain a high sense of gratitude in seeing a new level of understanding come from my students. And my teaching style is driven by this. First I attempt to teach things according to how I understand them. Second when a student doesn't understand something I think it's a waste of time to try to just repeat myself and hope they get it the second time. As Einstein said: “Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” Rather I will flip a concept around so the student can attempt to understand it differently, or draw images or make analogies to other concepts the student already understands, until there is understanding.
I recently graduated from Appalachian State University with a degree in Psychology with a minor in Chemistry where I was educated to understand learning and how the human mind ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have earned a BA in political science, and I will finish my PhD in May 2006. Through my graduate work, I have developed very strong math and writing skills that would enable me to be a very effective tutor for students in both math and reading. I have also worked with students to improve their writing style in the classes that I have taught, teaching them basic grammar and essay organization.
My goal in the classroom is to find a way to make my students relate to the material. I want my students to care enough to ask questions and work hard to understand the material. I enjoy teaching very much. I believe that it is an opportunity to teach my students that they can do anything that they want to do in their lives. I know that I have made a difference in the lives of my students, because they have told me that I changed the way that they see the world.

A Little Bit About Me...

I take pride in my ability to be innovative and creative to teach all children the way that they learn. I truly believe that there are 25-different types of intelligence. As educators, it is out job to determine how kids learn and teach them that way; not expect them to conform to a formula or out expectation. All children are unique and are brilliant in their own unique ways.
In my experience through course work and volunteer experience, I have instructed teens in mediation, leadership skills, and assisted them in making healthy choices, created a social skills curriculum, and learned various psychological techniques and skills for assisting people. By utilizing a multi-discipline approach, keeping accurate records of all sessions and interactions with the kids and their families, and communicating necessary information to team members. I am currently working on my Masters fo ... read more
