Stephanie F. - Sebring, FL 33870 (8 mi) - Literature Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I am a hands-on, visual learner, but not everyone is the same. I am able to adapt to each child's specific learning style. If I am explaining something and the student is unable to grasp the concept, I want them to feel completely comfortable asking me to explain it in a different way. I like to be able to know the student a little more personal level, to understand their way of thinking. That way I can think of ways that will hopefully help them overcome the obstacles they are facing. I am a recent graduate from Purdue University - Calumet. I majored in English Literature and plan on obtaining my teaching certificate in the state of Florida. I have not had much experience. I have helped friends and family when in need of assistance with English. I have always been a good speller, and am willing to help anyone who is looking for it. I know how hard school can be and want to help your chi

Matthew D. - Kissimmee, FL 34746 (38.9 mi) - Literature Tutor - $32.50/hr.
I have a way of perceiving the difficulty the student has, and am able to explain the material in a simple way that makes it easy for students to grasp. I have a good rapport with my student and have had several that have told me that I am the best teacher they have ever had(which didn't hurt my ego!!) I also have a good sense of humor which puts students at ease- and it is proven that a tense mind can not learn, only when the student loses their anxiety over the material will they absorb it! I have been tutoring for over 15 years both in students homes or at public locations such as coffee shops or the public library. My education and experience are broad. I was educated at "Ivy League" level schools and purposefully educated myself in a large variety of the humanities, which in essence all tie together. Basic courses up through most High School material outside of the Humanities ar

mary R. - Melbourne, FL 32904 (45.9 mi) - Literature Tutor - $27.50/hr.
As an English major in Education at the University of Alabama, I took many specialized courses in writing and reading. I learned many techniques for teaching creative writing and reading comprehension skills. For the past five years I have tutored students in FCAT writes techniques, reading skills and comprehension, and basic mathematics. In my position of Title I teaching assistant I taught small groups (6 or less students) and one-on-one reading, phonics, and comprehension as well as creative writing. I absolutely love teaching and working with children. Children learn in unique and individual ways and sometimes struggle in school work because they learn at a different pace than the class as a whole. Individual and small group instruction greatly benefits these children in many ways. They have a chance to ask questions, to deal with specific areas of difficulty and to have bet

Rhiannon H - Avon Park, FL 33825 (2.9 mi) - Literature Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I understand that all children learn differently and I am able to adapt my teaching style to fit the child. I am both patient and positive and I like to give the student confidence. My goal is to not only help the child learn, but to also give them a sense of confidence. It is important that each student believe in his or herself as well as their capabilities. I have been working with children for several years. I started by teaching dance at a local dance studio while I was in high school. It was from this experience that I chose to go to college to become a teacher. I have a degree in Elementary Education and am ESOL certified. I have experience as a substitute teacher and have worked with both elementary and middle school students.

Trawyn B - Sebring, FL 33870 (7.6 mi) - Literature Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I believe all children are capable of learning. We need to adjust to help everyone learn. Student- centered learning and constructivism are key components in student learning. Once again, my personal belief of education is "You only get out what you put in". I have taught for a total of 11 years. I taught in Prince George's Public schools for 5 years, Hyde Leadership Public Charter School in DC for 1 year, Avon Park High School for 2 years, Hardee Junior High for 1 year, and Bill Duncan Opportunity Center (alternative school) for 2 years. I have a Bachelor's in Biology and certifications in Math (5-9), Biology (6-12), and Middle Grades Integrated Curriculum (5-9). I plan to also attain a certification in ESOL and Reading by the end of the year.I am also interested in getting two Master's, in Counseling and Nursing. I have learned many skills, especially High Yield Instructional Strategie

Roy B. - Lake Wales, FL 33859 (14.9 mi) - Literature Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I am committed to helping each person reach his or her highest and greatest potential. My goal is to provide each student with an educational environment conducive for a successful learning experience. The tutor must establish the learning setting by creating parameters for the emotional, physical, and mental safety of each student. Specifically, this means the physical location must be without distracters, while the learning content is perceived as helpful, fun, exciting, relevant, and beneficial. The demeanor of the instructor must be serious while being neither stern nor judgmental. Over the years, I have consistently maintained both high moral values and excellent academic standards. While earning my two BA Degrees, I served both as a tutor and substitute teacher in several elementary schools. My second BA Degree was earned from Warner University in the elementary education majo

Glenda L - Wauchula, FL 33873 (15.1 mi) - Literature Tutor - $38.50/hr.
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. 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.

Carol S - Winter Haven, FL 33884 (24.3 mi) - Literature Tutor - $39.00/hr.
My approach to tutoring is one of patience, practice and fun. I believe in staying on topic but also be available to detour to relevant topics that may broaden the application of the subject being studied. Through the use of computers, research and practical examples, my students are given different approaches to enhance their study skills. For me, learning any new subject begins with learning its language. For example, in math and science, vocabulary and usage are keys to understanding processes basic to any application.
Finally, I welcome the opportunity to explore you or your child's talents, helping to identify and adapt a personal style of learning to ensure educational success. ) The last four years I have tutored at risk teenagers for a NY public school district. I also tutored privately. In NY I was a substitute teacher for K-12 which gave me experience in the different subj

Jessica D - Winer Haven, FL 33881 (27.2 mi) - Literature Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I have vast experience teaching many subjects at various levels ranging from preschool to high school. The subjects I have taught include reading, writing, grammar, advanced literature, and history. In addition to graduating with honors with a Bachelor's degree in English Education, I am currently enrolled in Montessori training, which offers me additional teaching strategies to enrich students' learning. I strive to adapt my teaching strategies to the individual needs of each student. My goal is to plan lessons that will be effective and enjoyable for each student. I believe in encouraging students to use higher-level thinking skills and in providing hands-on opportunities for learning. One of my strengths is determining each student's weaknesses and planning lessons that will lead them on the road to success.
