Susan H. - Orange Park, FL 32003 (50.3 mi) - Florida Writes Tutor - $25.00/hr.
I believe every student has their own style of learing. I am very much a visual learner and utilize this style. Many students, though, are tactile learners and/or find their attention is kept using computers. I love discovering what type of learner each child is. I like to always be positive and instill in my students that they can accomplish anything we just have to work together and discover their "niche". Seeing a child grow and succeed is my greatest reward. I have earned a Bachelor's Degree in Social Work and have worked extensively with and for children including a Case Manager at Clay County Behavioral. I have always wanted to be a teacher so earned my Teaching Certification through St. John's River Community College in ESE and Pre-K through 3rd Grade. I have been a teacher's assistant at Wilkinson Elementary in the Trainable/Profoundly Handicapped class and am now in my 2n

Nancy L - Gainesville, FL 32608 (4.4 mi) - Florida Writes Tutor - $31.00/hr.
Two of my greatest strengths as a teacher include rapport with students and organization. I am usually able to develop a rapport with students, which I feel helps encourage a positive working environment. I am quite organized which helps me attend to my students' needs and to help students organize themselves. In working with a variety of age groups and a variety of subject matter, I feel that I have a strong understanding of learning needs for a variety of students. I have had a great variety of experiences in education. I spent two years teaching social studies, one year at the high school level and one year at the middle school level. Other educational experiences I have had include tutoring and working part time with elementary students, teaching science.

Toccoa G - Newberry, FL 32669 (5.4 mi) - Florida Writes Tutor - $34.50/hr.
I really like working with children from low income families. I think each child has a different interest and way of learning. I try to discover these learning styles before I begin the tutoring process. I try to allow them to be comfortable and having fun during our sessions. Most of the time I do a lot of question/conversation responses to allow them to find the answer for themselves. I like a problem based learning style, even for the youngest of children. I not only want to teach them how to properly concur their learning material but how to find the information they need if they do not know the answer. Additionally, I want them to have fun and enjoy quality time with a supportive mentor and gain an enthusiasm for school. I have a B.S in Animal Biology. I have had to take extensive science and math courses. Additionally, I have extensive experience working with children. Es

Audrey P - Gainesville, FL 32607 (6.3 mi) - Florida Writes Tutor - $36.50/hr.
As a University of Florida student, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I have one class left before graduating from the College of Journalism, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of reading, retention and comprehension. In addition, I have learned extensive grammatical skills due to writing research papers, essays and newspaper articles. I have previously tutored reading. I love teaching and working with children to help them achieve their educational success. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I enjoy tutoring students and helping them build confidence in their ability to achieve, both academically and socially. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible and to make learning fun. I am a firm believer in teaching through multiple ways to keep t

Avi R - Gainedville, FL 32608 (6.4 mi) - Florida Writes Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I spent some time in college tutoring other students in subjects such as mathematics and Hebrew. I was asked by the academic support office to tutor because my advisor knew I was a committed student with a strong knowledge of many subjects. I was honored to be thought of in such a way. I did well with my students and they respected me. I was serious about accomplishing the tasks at hand when I met with them and the overall reflection in their grades showed very positive results. I am an excellent choice if you are looking for a tutor who is hard working, intelligent, and devoted to helping his students really grasp the concepts at hand. I consider myself to be a very good people person. I have a way of relating to the students that I'm helping. As mentioned above, my students respect me and see that I am serious and focused on helping them succeed in their studies. I look forward to

Melissa M - Gainesville, FL 32608 (7.2 mi) - Florida Writes Tutor - $33.00/hr.
I will be graduating from UF this fall semester with a degree in marketing and mass communication. Although I am young, I have had some experience in teaching, as I have worked as a tutor during the summer. I have also served as a tutor at the University of Florida in all math related topics. I truly enjoy working with people of all ages and I am a registered substitute teacher. I have always been a diligent student, as my transcript can attest, and I have a passion for teaching anyone, especially in the areas of mathematics, economics, English, and writing. My teaching style embodies a combination of individualism and structure. Before I teach any subject, I dissect the topic to get to the fundamental root that may cause difficulties in learning. I break down the problem into a simple nature so that students can understand the logical reasoning of how to solve any problem. I believe

Erica D - Gainesville, FL 32608 (7.3 mi) - Florida Writes Tutor - $40.50/hr.
My degree from the University of Florida has sharpened my academic skills across a wide range of subjects. As a National Merit Scholar, I earned my way through college based on test scores and grades, and I am eager to help others achieve similar academic success at all levels of schooling. I have tutored many students of varied ages and ability levels in study skills, test preparation, and all core subjects. Teaching is my passion. I believe that all students can succeed; therefore, I strive to ensure that my students are always making progress. Because the learning experience can be different for each student, I individualize my approach in each situation. While learning through traditional methods is important, I like to engage students with supplements such as learning games and creative activities whenever possible. I endeavor to make every student’s academic experience a success.

Justine M - Gainesville, FL 32607 (7.3 mi) - Florida Writes Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I worked for Advanced Learning Centers to tutor both high school and middle school students in math. When no new math topics are of any trouble, I also aided them in working with both science and english.During my term in Colorado, I also tutored two girls for a year and half in math and english. I grew quite attached to them and the family and I hope to have lasting relationships with the kids and families I work with. As an undergraduate in Chemical engineering, I have always been known to strive to be the best that I can be. I have my BS in Chemical Engineering which displays my knowledge of both science and math. I was also a graduate student in pharmaceutical sciences in Colorado and helped to write scientific grant proposals. This experience shows my working knowledge of both science and english, as well.

Lauren H - Gainesville, FL 32608 (7.3 mi) - Florida Writes Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I am currently an English major at the University of Florida, looking to finish my undergraduate education in two semesters and graduate with honors and a Bachelor of Arts. I have had past experience working and volunteering with children on an individual level, teaching them various facets of English - including vocabulary, grammatical components, and have helped to develop comfort with such tests as the PSAT and SAT. This would be my first teaching opportunity specifically as a tutor, but I feel confident and capable that my education, passion for English language and literature, and past experience guiding children, will enable me to be a great tutor. If there is anything I believe about teaching, in any form, it's that you need to be passionate about what you are teaching, yourself, before you can translate that to others seeking knowledge. I am incredibly passionate about English, a

As a former student and professional athlete, I am a very self-motivated person. From the University of Florida I earned a B.A. in History and a Minor in Education. Last year, I worked in the classroom as a substitute teacher on all three major levels of grade school education. In addition, I have been a supervisor and counselor at various camps which require long hours and spendig individual time with children. I love teaching and working with children. I believe good communication is what makes life efficient. In my mind, good communication requires a positive, instructive, and detail manner. A better future requires a better education now, and how we pursue it is vital. Education empowers a mind, attitude empowers a lifestyle.

Bindi S - gainesville, FL 32608 (7.6 mi) - Florida Writes Tutor - $35.00/hr.
When I can help other students understand a concept that was once very confusing for them, I feel very satisfied. I am very flexible in my teaching methods. Primarily, I like to understand the learning styles of my student so I know what will best work for them. I will do whatever it takes to make sure the student understands the concept and succeeds. I also like to encourage students by implementing different incentive programs; this will motivate them to continue working hard. I am extremely confident that I will be able to teach my students successfully in a fun and engaging manner. Currently, I am a graduate student in the Counselor Education Department at the University of Florida. I graduated with my Bachelors of Science in Psychology and a Minor in Spanish from the University of Florida in May 2007. While I was earning my Bachelors’ degree I was a tutor for Upward Bound.

Mary P - Gainesville, FL 32608 (7.6 mi) - Florida Writes Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I love teaching and being around children. Their vitality and energy is contagious. I believe they are truly our nation's future and we must nurture them. I believe each child has unique skills and capabilities and you must tap into these capabilities to assure the student learns well. Each child has a unique way of learning and every child is capable of succeeding with the right tools at hand. I am a very hands on teacher and believe that a child can most often learn best through discovering for themselves. I believe it is important to not only be concerned for the child's education but also for the child's feelings and personal life. You must gain a respect for the child and give them the respect you feel that you deserve yourself. I graduated from the University of Florida with a Bachelors in English and Education in May 2010. I will be attending UF in the Fall to begin studying to re
