A Little Bit About Me...

I love educating children and adults and strongly believe in lifelong learning. Since I have taught at several levels and even in different countries, I use different teaching techniques. My goal is to help the learner to get the best education possible.
I have taught for 20+ years in Germany (mainly Math, English and Reading) and for 4 years in Kansas City, MO. There I taught all core subjects: Math, Language Arts, Science and Social Studies. Right now I have got several part time jobs: I work as a sub at a colligiate high school (all subjects), I will teach German at the Edison College in Fort Myers (Continuing Education) and I tutor for a private company doing SES tutoring - Reading and Math. I have prepared young people to do their GED, too. The subjects I did there were Math, Science and American History.

More About This Tutor...

Throughout my education and career, I have functioned as tutor, trainer, and coach to a variety of different ages and levels of learners. I began tutoring younger children when I was ten years old and continued helping my peers during both high school and college with topics such as writing, math, french, and political science. Once I joined the work force, I continued to teach at the corporate level in business subjects and various writing styles. My passion for teaching has now become the focus of my future. Once I reach PhD (abd - all but dissertation) status in August I plan to dedicate my life to teaching full-time. I enjoy creating an active and interesting learning environment while inspiring others to reach their full potential. The joy of helping others learn and achieve their goals is without comparison and I would love to help your students succeed.
I am an experienced a ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Helping people is a top priority in my life. Knowledge is important and necessary for success. I believe that everyone can learn given the right teaching method. I try to individualize the ways I use to help each student. I use hands on learning techniques whenever possible and I feel it is important to use many different teaching methods(oral, written and example) to get ideas across and maintain student interest.
I received my BS in 1978 and my continuing certificate 3 years later. I have worked with youth(6th grade-12th grade) in a classroom setting. I have also worked with adult learners to re-train them for the workplace. Another population of students I have worked with were imprisoned youth aged 13-21. As a substitute teacher I did a great deal of tutoring, especially in math. I also taught several home-schooled courses. Most recently I have been a fitness instruct ... read more

I am certified to teach both math and reading in Florida. I am particularly strong in helping students to understand the basics. I became a teacher because I feel that I can make a positive difference in my students' lives while providing them quality instruction from a teacher who truly cares. My last teaching assignments were in preparing high risk students to pass the FCAT and the GED. My students exhibited a ninety-seven percent pass rate on both tests upon passing my class.
Students should be taught as individuals based on their particular learning styles. People learn at their own rate. My philosophy is that all students can be successful if taught by a caring qualified teacher in a positive learning environment. I thoroughly enjoy the challenges of teaching. My reward comes when my students are successful in learning and develop positive self-esteems towards learning ... read more

Teach a man to fish...is for life. Tutoring is the same, especially with younger children. I haven't met a student yet who is unable to learn. My job is to find the method that will best enable students to self-actualize their learning. A success is converting the child's approach and passion for learning. If I helped to change the child's mind about learning, I have literally altered the course of his/her life in a positive way.
I have a versatile background that began with two business degrees and progressed to a professional career in purchasing and sales. I discovered along the way that my true passion was teaching and I can be more effective in a tutoring one-on-one situation than a classroom setting. I am highly proficient and have tutored nearly all subjects and grade levels.

Even though I hold a business degree I have always had a love for working with children. As a college student I worked for two different families as a nanny, where I assisted a total of five children with their school work and projects among other things. After obtaining my BS in Finance from the University of Central Florida I went on to get married and work in a bank. It was shortly after that when I realized that my real passion was with children. When I became pregnant I left my banking position to be a stay at home mom. Since then I have had four children and currently subsitute teach for Sarasota County School Board.
I love working with children and seeing them get excited to learn new information. I feel that all children are very capable of learning, just some need that extra one on one attention that is not possible to receive in a classroom setting. I love that loo ... read more

I am very passionate about my profession and take it seriously, but still make learning fun. I taught two years of Intensive Reading and worked with students who scored a level 1 on Reading FCAT. My students made remarkable gains on their scores, many earned a grade-level score in Reading on the next test. I have also taught elementary and high school students as a tutor and test prep coach. I enjoy working with students of all ages and helping them reach their goals and succeed.
My teaching style is serious, but fun. I want students to know that I care about their success and believe they are capable of doing great things. I am a very caring, very patient teacher. I like to build motivation in my students, as well as a desire to become a life-long learner. I teach many learning strategies, but emphasize students to learn how to activate these strategies at the right time.

As a graduate of Indiana University, I was driven to academic success as a Dean's List student in attaining a degree in Business Management. During my time at Indiana I tutored students in English, Social Studies, Math, and History. The students ranged from elementary to college level and my retention for these students from year to year was nearly 100%. Now that I am here in Florida I want to continue to tutor, mentor, and foster educational improvement.
I love helping students succeed. I believe all students are capable of academic success. However, I have come to learn that learning styles differ greatly and to be an effective tutor it is imperative to analyze the student and find the most effective tutoring style that suits his or her learning style. My goal is to improve results through patience, hard-work, and confidence building. I believe a good educator can make a world of ... read more

After graduating from Jacksonville University with a BS in Business Administration, I joined the field of professional baseball. I have been playing professionally in the Tampa Bay Rays’ organization for the past 5 seasons. During my off-seasons, I have been working for the Sarasota School Board as a preferred substitute mostly at Sarasota Middle School. I have taught in every subject at the middle school level with my specialties being math, science, and reading. My last assignment was running a tutoring program at Sarasota Middle. I have a true passion for helping children and young adults succeed, and would like to help your children as well.
Apart from baseball, my second love is education. I feel that every student has the ability to grasp a subject or a certain idea. It is all a matter of finding out how that student learns. My main style of teaching is threw the Socr ... read more

I believe in the power of education. I have a reputation for honesty. I make students work harder then they ever thought they could. I can make students sit through 45 minutes of instruction when thier own parents cannot make them sit for 5 minutes. I have the ability to make students wonder, question, have respect and take responsibility for thier actions. I teach them to write, read, read, read. I make my students feel safe and tell them if they use the gifts that were given and follow thier hearts, they can succeed. I make a difference that is what is important.
Holding a BS in Business Management and a BS in Criminal Justice and going on to earn my MS in Criminal Justice, I was driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style revolves around the student's learning style though I prefer to be "hands on". I am a firm believer that grades reflect effort. Because most students have difficulty in math or just do not enjoy it, my personality becomes an asset. Learning should be an enjoyable experience and it is most enjoyable when a student understands the concepts. Building confidence in a student leads to success and I believe I have a gift for achieving this.
After graduating college with a degree in Finance I pursued careers in that field which were very rewarding. My wife is a school adminsitrator and I thought a career in teaching might be a nice change as the school schedule appeared generous. I tried it and what happened next can best be expressed as; "a calling". I have taught mathematics at the middle thru high school levels encompassing Pre-Algebra thru Calculus.

A Little Bit About Me...

With the Sarasota County School Board I was a contractual educator / substitute teacher. Educating all levels of students and curricula K-12. Focusing on proactive and interactive methods of teaching. Instilling praise vs. critism and encouraging full student participation. The students responded very well to this method and were able to excell in their assignments. Being an educator is one of the most rewarding experiences; It is one of the only professions where I felt that I was contributing, adding value and making a positive difference. There is nothing more rewarding than knowing that my contribution made a positive difference is someone's life.
