I know the basic moves and strategies. My style is student centered. I always try to provide a positive atmosphere for learning. My jokes were a technique to help accomplish that goal. As a GED teacher I always began with a pretest and documented student progress to correct any deficiencies. I believe in positive reinforcement and helping students achieve their goals which gives us both a sense of accomplishment. I am an honors graduate of U.S.F. with forty years of teaching experience. In addition to my B.A. and M.A. degrees, I completed all cousework for the ED.D. I have taught FCAT preperation in middle school in math and reading. I have also taught GED Prep in the evenings. I taught junior high math one year. I have also written two books. One is a history jokebook. The other is a memoir of humorous classroom incidents. I believe that these experiences qualify me to tutor social stud

After completing my undergraduate degree in English Literature at Florida State University, I worked as a substitute teacher in Hillsborough County for two years. In 2009, I completed my Master's Degree in Communication at University of South Florida while simultaneously employed at the Department of Special Education. I have been tutoring with Advanced Learners for 1 year and am currently an Adjunct Instructor of Public Speaking at HCC Dale Mabry. Once while subbing, I entered a classroom where the students had been allowed to watch Jerry Springer on TV for the last two weeks. I couldn't let this continue, but I saw how emotional the class was about the show. I encouraged them to write their own talk show and told them we would perform it the next day. I find that connecting student's interest with the subject matter to be learned is the best way to teach.

As a professional athlete, I know what kind of work ethic it takes to excel in athletics as well as education. I had a double major and minor in college and earned my degree with a 3.5 GPA while playing baseball full-time. I have always excelled in mathematics and Spanish and feel more than competent teaching other areas as well. Through my two years of teaching students ranging from 3rd grade through community college, every single student improved their grades, a fact that gives me much pride and satisfaction. I enjoyed teaching all age groups, but I feel that there is one continuing thread that I try to keep in all my tutoring sessions. The teachers from my past that made the greatest impact on me pushed me to be a better student that I thought I was capable of, and I try to use this tact when I teach. I also try to keep it as low-stress as possible, since most students are alrea

My teaching style is one that is more interactive than instructional. I continue to be amazed while I observe the thought process and problem solving techniques, of the many different and varying individuals and personalities. I am at my best in one on one situations, where I can troubleshoot and identify learning challenges in their early stages. I believe we retain 30% of what we hear and 50% of what we do. The remainder is acquired through repetition, which is a byproduct of a passion waiting to be discovered. My experiences involve the teaching and performance of music education. I am a skilled performer on the trombone, keyboards, drums and percussion. I am qualified to teach brass instruments at levels k-12 and stringed instruments at k-5. I have performed professionally in 7 states, Italy and Belgium, while serving in the military. I have created a choir for prime-time Europ

I have taught to all ages in many different settings and subjects. I find one on one tutoring to be the most rewarding and effective. I would not only teach students to create a positive learning environment but work to build study and learning habits to nurture their knowledge and critical thinking skills in a developmentally appropriate manner for each age group and skill level. I have my Florida state teachers certification a strong letters of recommendation from my previous principals and have years of experience teaching k-12 students. A few of my career high lights are as follows, I have taught both disadvantaged children in Brooklyn, NY and gifted and talented highschool students in MD, as well as substitute teaching in all subjects for the Teachers 2000 Program. I am currently working toward my master’s degree in art education from The George Washington University.

I encourage students to be well versed in the basics; reading, writing and arithmetic. I am also a believer in making sure students take as many college ready courses as possible. The full math and science venue are of utmost importance. At the community college, I acted in an advisory capacity, one-on-one, to the high school students that I dealt with. I am a technical and business oriented individual, having an MS in Civil Engineering and an MBA in Finance. I worked my way through school, having started at a community college. My last position, Program Director, was at that same community college, Monroe Community College, in Rochester, NY. With my education and work experience, I am well versed in several areas of science, business and math. During the last 5 years as Program Director, I created and delivered SAT review courses for high school students and vocational construction cour

Good English instructors should persist in cultivating knowledge in the disciplines of reading and writing, as well as teaching. They should also develop insights into the obstacles faced by a wide range of students and be able to provide specially formulated guidance necessary to motivate them. As a tutor, more than just teaching students how to pass their assigned material, my goal is to encourage students to realize their full potential as scholars and proactive citizens. As an Honors Program graduate, my BA in English literature has motivated me to develop strong reading and writing skills. While writing research essays and my Honors thesis, I developed a critical understanding of grammar, sentence structure, as well as how to develop a strong, provocative thesis and support it with evidence. For the past several years, I have helped my fellow students study various subjects, partic

Coming from a family comprised exclusively of teachers, education has been a highly valued and often discussed aspect of my life. While I chose not to earn my degree in education, I made sure teaching was still a part of my personal development through substitute teaching and tutoring while traveling abroad. Today I continue to enjoy learning and increasing my grasp on a wide variety of subjects. The world of today is marked by an over abundance of information. An internet search on any subject yields thousands of results, often with conflicting ideas. Critical thinking is now more important than ever. I take this point of view into tutoring sessions in that I challenge the student to understand the process, as opposed to just memorizing the steps. Through strengthening general thought processes and decision making skills, the student benefits in all subjects while learning a particular

I taught using signs and symbols such as phonics, letters, numbers mainly because of the age of children. Children may learn at certain phases, not everyone learns at the same level. I worked at the First Baptist Day Care as a Pre-K teacher. I was involved with teaching 3 - 5 years old children in Arts, Language and Math.

I was taught by my mentor to allow the tutee to teach themselves. Instead of making corrections for them, it was our writing center's policy to insist that each student held their own pen and made their own corrections. We would engage in discussion and challenge them to spot their own mistakes, acting as an invisible hand guiding them towards the knowledge that would serve them throughout their academic career instead of us becoming a quick fix for the present tense. Nothing is better than the look of recognition on a tutee's face when the light bulb goes off and you know that they simply "got it." While I was employed as a writing tutor in college, I was also taking additional courses to improve my skill set as a tutor. We focused on interpersonal communication and reaching out to students regardless of any baggage brought into the tutoring session. I worked as an undergraduate teachin
