More About This Tutor...

I am patient and treat kids with the same respect I am given. since I am young, I believe teaching kids will be easier because I can understand any troubles they may be having and the material is fresh in my head.
I am graduating high school this year and I am the oldest of three children. My sister is in first grade and my brother is in PreK. After school we come home and work on homework and sight words. I have babysat family friends and neighbors for three years now. I completed two years of Early Childhood Education classes with a built-in VPK. In this program, we designed and taught our own lesson plans for the children in VPK. I have experience working with children ages 3-5 and teaching science, social studies and math skills. I am also certified in CPR.

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.
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.

As an educator my passion is helping children become successful learners. I hold both a BS and M.Ed in elementary education with specializations in curriculum & instruction along with early childhood. My life experiences provided opportunities to teach many different age groups, and develop learning experiences that were developmentally appropriate. Teaching K-5 involved general grade level instruction. Additionally, I enjoyed several years of substitute teaching and adjunct instruction for a local university which fit into the schedule of raising my own children. Other training and teaching experiences have involved working with middle and high school students in after school programs and providing various prevention curriculums.
The joy of teaching is finding interesting, enjoyable methods for children to learn necessary skills & knowledge. I believe all children can be success ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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.
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.

A Little Bit About Me...

I hold a B.S. in Wildlife Biology and an M.S. in Environmental Biology. I entered college later in life and worked and paid my own way through. I have excellent writing skills and am proficient in nearly all areas of biological sciences. Specifically, I am well versed in the areas of taxonomy, evolutionary biology, and anatomy of both plants and animals.
Though I am an easy going person, I am no nonsense when it comes to learning. I am non judgmental about a person's ability to learn, only their dedication and willingness. I believe anyone can excell in any subject, if they simply have the will to do so.

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

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a natural gift for teaching and I very much enjoy it. I am an upbeat person who is a natural encourager and I am a patient person. I am very methodical and organized in my teaching. I tend to come from a different angle, presenting information with a different perspective that allows for greater understanding. I love to see the "ah-ah" moments when someone understands something they had previously been unable to grasp. I find it very rewarding and exciting.
I have 5 years of volunteer teaching experience. I have worked with ages of children ranging from infant to 5th grade. In addition I have a years worth of experience teaching adults. I have worked in the areas of memorization, art, music, stories and use of analogy. I have also focused on reading and writing.

Growing up, I never thought that I would want to be a teacher. After taking a job as a Childcare Counselor with the YMCA, I realized the I was meant to teach and work with children. I have been working with the YMCA for close to three years. I graduated from Manatee Community College with my Associate’s degree in May of 2009. I am currently attending the University of South Florida in Sarasota to receive my Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education. I have also been a tutor for various English Language Learners over the past two years. This is truly my passion, and I am considering getting my master’s degree in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages after I get my bachelor’s degree.
I wholeheartedly believe in the power of education. I believe that education is the key to our freedom in life. I hope to teach this philosophy to my students. As a teacher, ... read more

10 years experience training space operators for US Navy and US Air Force. Training includes orbital mechanics, space operations, and computer operations. Education includes 10 semesters of calculus, differential equations, and other higher math. Other education includes physics, geometry, trig, electronics, mechanical engineering. Happy to help in any of these areas.
I like to start with where the student feels comfortable, then go from there. I do not dictate, but listen and understand first, then try to explain in a style the student likes. I am happy to get into other areas learning if the student or parent wishes.
