15 years experience in a broad variety of subjects!

I have a way of perceiving the difficulty the student has, and am able to explain the material in a simple way that makes it easy for students to grasp. I have a good rapport with my student and have had several that have told me that I am the best teacher they have ever had(which didn't hurt my ego!!) I also have a good sense of humor which puts students at ease- and it is proven that a tense mind can not learn, only when the student loses their anxiety over the material will they absorb it!
I have been tutoring for over 15 years both in students homes or at public locations such as coffee shops or the public library. My education and experience are broad. I was educated at "Ivy League" level schools and purposefully educated myself in a large variety of the humanities, which in essence all tie together. Basic courses up through most High School material outside of the Humanit ... read more

Upon enrolling my children in school, I decided to be an active part of their education. So, I assisted their teachers with everything I could. Eventually, I became a trusted part of the school system (an honorary teacher, so to speak). They began giving me more responsibilities, concerning the children of the school. I tutored hundreds of students to increase their FCAT results, single-handedly; I corrected documents, daily; I worked on setting up the computers for the teachers and students, and I trained both to use them. I even learned magic, so that I could help teach the students their studies, in a fun and exciting way. Previously, I opened my own computer shop, and thus, I had a tremendous advantage of all sorts of software, and Internet knowledge, that would help educate the students. Since I had an ADHD student at home (my son,) I was quite active with the ESE program. I helped ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a later graduate (36 years young), I consider myself to be driven, goal-oriented, and motivated. I have worn a lot of hats throughout my career and I have trained or taught many people across all age groups. I've earned my BA in History and am currently working on my MA in American History. With my experience and knowledge, I would be able to help you with your academic needs.
I love teaching and all aspects of teaching. I believe we are all capable of learning our required material, that every one of us just learns in different ways and at a different pace. I am energetic, encouraging, patient, and considerate. I want to see people succeed and I am here for anyone that needs help. I like to use traditional and non-traditional methods until I can figure out the best way the child is going to learn. I want to make an impact in our children's lives to show them learning can be fun ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am committed to helping each person reach his or her highest and greatest potential. My goal is to provide each student with an educational environment conducive for a successful learning experience. The tutor must establish the learning setting by creating parameters for the emotional, physical, and mental safety of each student. Specifically, this means the physical location must be without distracters, while the learning content is perceived as helpful, fun, exciting, relevant, and beneficial. The demeanor of the instructor must be serious while being neither stern nor judgmental.
Over the years, I have consistently maintained both high moral values and excellent academic standards. While earning my two BA Degrees, I served both as a tutor and substitute teacher in several elementary schools. My second BA Degree was earned from Warner University in the elementary educatio ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My approach to tutoring is one of patience, practice and fun. I believe in staying on topic but also be available to detour to relevant topics that may broaden the application of the subject being studied. Through the use of computers, research and practical examples, my students are given different approaches to enhance their study skills. For me, learning any new subject begins with learning its language. For example, in math and science, vocabulary and usage are keys to understanding processes basic to any application. Finally, I welcome the opportunity to explore you or your child's talents, helping to identify and adapt a personal style of learning to ensure educational success. )
The last four years I have tutored at risk teenagers for a NY public school district. I also tutored privately. In NY I was a substitute teacher for K-12 which gave me experience in the differen ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have had many years of teaching experience in both the public school system as well as the private. I have taught first, fourth, fifth, sixth, Spanish and P.E. My most recent employment was at All Saints' Academy in Winter Haven where I taught fifth grade. I have a large, active family that was hard to balance with a full time career. I enjoy children and I enjoy teaching so I feel that tutoring would be a logical choice as a part-time career.
I have always enjoyed working with children and having my own has made me exceptionally patient. Not all students grasp meaning the first time around, and slower learners are just as capable of learning if given the support they need. These students often "fall through the cracks" if teachers only teach to the top of the class. I have always offered extra help before and after school for those that need extra support. I feel like I ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that children are life-long learners and that they continue to learn long after they leave a school setting. Children all learn in different ways, but I believe they are all capable of learning.A teacher's responsibility is to find those ways and help open the doors for their students. I believe strongly that students learn best by doing and through positive reinforcement. I strive to give my students the best possible learning opportunities , each and every day.

As a first grade teacher, I became very experienced and well versed in balanced literacy frameworks. This passed year, all 22 of my students showed impressive gains in their reading/phonics skills assessment based ... read more

Teaching is a part of who I am. I enjoy helping my students reach their full potential by helping them realize that they can do almost anything with a little patient,understanding, and fun. I use different strategies and manipulatives to help my students learn. To teach, reach, and make your child feel good about him or herself and their education is my goal.

I started my experience as a counselor at YMCA for 4 years. Here I discovered that I had a passion for teaching young minds. I went on to working for MOSI as a teachers assistant for 2 years. Here I was able to practice my teaching style by tutoring and teaching children with science experiments. I applied to Nova in 2008 to get my Bachelors Degree in Elementary Education. I just recently finished my internship teaching 5th grade at Garden Grove Elementary School in Winter Haven. I have passed the General Knowledge and Professional Education exam and am still in the process of taking and passing my Subject Area test in Elementary Education.

More About This Tutor...

I recently graduated from the University of Florida with my Bachelors Degree in Health Education and Behavior. I am currently working on my Masters Degree at the University of South Florida in Physical Education and Exercise Science. I am also substituting for the Polk County School System. I have held private tutoring sessions for the past 2 years with elementary and middle school aged children in the subjects of science and reading.
Working with children and young adults is my passion. My dedication for being an educator has developed tremendously these past few years. I like to be able to help children overcome the obstacles they face to help them become better students. I am very patient and personable with children and when I am tutoring a child, I try to ensure I meet the needs of each particular child's learning style.
