Logic Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Alva, FL

Hi, my name is Brittany G. I am a graduate of Southeastern University where I earned a B.S. in General Biology with a minor in Chemistry and Western Governor's University where I earned a Master's in teaching Science. I have been teaching for Sarasota County since 2007. I've taught a variety of different subjects for all grade levels from basic middle school math and science to Honor's Anatomy and Physiology, Algebra, Informal Geometry, Physical Science, and have recently been tutoring for college level algebra and trigonometry, probability and statistics, chemistry and biology. It is my belief in order to effectively teach a variety of students the information needs to be presented and taught in a variety of ways. It is my goal as a teacher and tutor to discover how you learn best and help you gain a deeper understanding of the subject matter.

The breadth of my experience has enriched my teaching life, but left me without a luxury some of my colleagues enjoy-the sense, as embarked upon a new challenge,tutoring students, that I know what students will need, and how best to share it with them. This is not to say that I've been tossed blind into the classroom. In most cases, I've had enough prep time to gather what seem like appropriate materials, and find out something about the students I'll be working with. What I have not had is the critical mass of sameness that accrues to the teacher who stays in the same setting, at the same level, for many years in a row. I enjoy teaching and watching my student growth and development. My teaching technique the students differ greatly in their ability to acquire knowledge depending on their previous backgrounds and learning styles. Therefore, it is a very challenging task as a tutor to cr

I have a wealth of experience tutoring kids. My knowledge gains from college and in the work force allows me to provide accurate tutoring to students seeking help. I have tutored in subjects such as Math and Science. For the last 3yrs I have tutored students in inner city after school programs. I find great joy in providing assistance to students in the academic areas and to help improve our wonderful public school system. Teaching is natural for me, especially kids. Every responsible adult is a teacher whether they know it or not. I teach and tutor on the premise of; with discipline, a child can accomplish anything set before him or her, and overcome any obstacle laid in front of him or her. I believe when giving kids the proper tools to succeed in life it is not a matter of will they succeed but it is a matter of when they will succeed.

As an Engineer major, I am interested in math and science in particular. I carried a 3.85 GPA throughout college, and earned a Golden Key International Honor Society award. I believe that working hard to achieve the top grades of your class will make you successful, and a good student. I enjoy working with children of all ages. I enjoy children who can appreciate being challenged, wanting to learn, and children who truly want to succeed. I always strive for the best. I believe anyone can meet their potential if they are willing and able to put the time, effort, and sacrifice into what they need.

Throughout my studies I have learned that all students learn differently. When teaching in a classroom, I will have to discover the way each student learns individually. An important aspect of my teaching experience has been to get down on that students level, and look at the struggles each student has in the classroom. I modify lessons in order to have each student adapt them to his or her own learning style. I believe that each student is willing to learn, but needs to discover the best learning style suitable to their abilities. As an English Education major, I have had numerous encounters in the classroom with each of my classroom practicums. After completing my degree in the fall of 2009, I will have over three semesters of classroom experience, working with students from the sixth grade to the twelfth grade. I have also worked as a childcare provider for several years, in add

In working with children I have learned that it is important to be excited about what you are teaching. That excitement is contagious and creates a desire to self learn and creates long term study habits. That excitement will be reflected in a students' progress as they gain more knowledge about a certain subject. My goal is to inspire a child to realize what they are able to accomplish through hard work and fun. During my years as an undergraduate student I took on extensive study habits that included working in study groups and tutoring other classmates who were struggling with material. In my undergraduate experience I have acquired the knowledge and skills necessary to comprehend extensive material including math, physics, chemistry, and life sciences. As an honors student I was required to speak in front of large groups of people and explain complex subjects in areas that I had rese

I am a 2010 graduate of the Teacher Immersion Program (TIP) from Florida Gulf Coast University. I have my Florida Teaching Certificate and am Florida certified in Math (Middle Grades 5-9) and Elementary Ed. K-6. I have experience volunteering in intensive/ESE math classes (grades 6-10) and a 9th grade Algebra I class. I have always been good at math. I took Trigonometry, Statistics, and Calculus I & II in college and achieved B's or better in each of them. Currently, I am proficient in Algebra, Geometry (middle grades), Probability, and of course basic math skills. In addition to math, I can also teach Language Arts (reading and writing). I chose the teaching profession because I wanted to be a positive adult male role model for students. I believe all kids can learn and can achieve academic success with a teacher who is patient and supportive to their needs. I have a systematic approach

During my coursework as an undergraduate student, I completed several hours devoted to art education, educational leadership and educational psychcology. I also completed the on-the-field teaching of art lessons to a mildly autistic elementary student for several weekly visits. In addition to my undergraduate experience, I was a teaching assistant for four college classes and I served as an instructor for a beginnning metalsmith course during my graduate studies. It was also at this time that I assisted international students in the writing and editing processes of written theses, necessary to complete their graduation requirements of their degree programs. More recently, I've been an in-home tutor for the past year, working with students in reading and mathematics. This summer I became an SES tutor, working one-on-one with a student here in Lehigh through the NCLB program. Every student

I cannot say that I am set in any teaching style. I am green and haven’t exactly got a teaching style. I know through years of schooling and interacting with peers people learn differently and do better or worse depending on the teacher they have and that teachers style. I believe teaching methods in a tutorial environment need to be adaptive to the student. You’ll need to communicate with the student and feel him/her out and see how he/she learns best. I am patient and confident in my ability to be able to help others learn. My sister had a learning disability and I enjoyed helping her get through school as we grew up. I think it is essential that a student has confidence in himself/herself and believes they can do it. While I attended Auburn University and studied civil engineering I found myself enjoying group projects and helping other students get through the difficult curriculum. I

My passion for teaching has allowed my students to excel in their studies. I am committed to giving the best to each child. I recognize the struggles that students face and I break it down into bit size pieces in which the child not only feels confident in the subject matter but enthusiastic to learn on his/her own accord. Nurturing a student to reach further and to go above-and-beyond is essential, as they are our future leaders Having completed a Masters degree in Elementary Education at Medaille College, New York and earned two bachelors degrees from Wayne State University and University of Windsor I feel I am equipped to teach the most challenged child. My passion for teaching is a gift in which I enjoy very much. I also have taken science courses such as Anatomy & Physiology, Physics, and Chemistry at D’Youville College in New York.

As a Chemical Enigineering graduate, I was exposed to many courses in higher level mathematics as well as all subject matter ranging from physics, chemistry, organic chemistry, biochemistry, and biology. In addition, I have written many papers and essays, both scientific and artistic in nature. I have even been published in a scientific research journal as a co-author. For two years during college I tutored my fellow students in organic chemistry, averaging about 10 hours per week. My style is to give detailed examples and descriptions and then let the students try to work through the problems I have selected for them. Throughout a given session I coach the students by answering all their questions along the way and providing positive feedback. Through this method I hope for each student to increase their proficiency in the material by the end of the session. Each new session is begun wi

I enjoy the challenge of bringing the best out of a student's ability. My demeanor in the classroom is very calm and patient, which creates a relaxed atmosphere. I am a firm believer in keeping the students involved during my class and will frequently call on students to participate in solving problems. Every student has the ability to do well in school. I think it is just a matter of how badly they want to succeed and as a teacher I try to tap into their potential. I graduated from Florida State University with a bachelor's degree in secondary math education. During my internship in the fall of 2006, I taught Algebra 2 Honors and Geometry. Upon graduation, I was hired to teach Algebra IB at Lakeland High School and taught there for the spring semester of 2007. Due to my desire to be closer to my family in Charlotte County, I attended the Lee County Job Fair in April of 2007 and w

As a consistent honor student with a bachelor's degree, cum laude, in Physics, I have always believed in the importance of an excellent education. I come from a family of educators who nurtured my love of knowledge. In university, I was editor-in-chief of the school paper, a literary annual, and a bi-annual magazine of international circulation. After winning a prestigious national honors award, I was offered a managerial position in a large commercial bank. After ten years in banking, I decided to pursue the career I consider noblest -- teaching. I earned distinguished marks in my Elementary Education certifying exams and was hired as a first grade teacher in Fort Myers, FL. My proudest achievement thus far is watching my students earn fantastic marks in their Stanford 10 exams. I love teaching students that many others before me gave up on, and then watching them achieve and exc
