More About This Tutor...

Upon enrolling my children in school, I decided to be an active part of their education. So, I assisted their teachers with everything I could. Eventually, I became a trusted part of the school system (an honorary teacher, so to speak). They began giving me more responsibilities, concerning the children of the school. I tutored hundreds of students to increase their FCAT results, single-handedly; I corrected documents, daily; I worked on setting up the computers for the teachers and students, and I trained both to use them. I even learned magic, so that I could help teach the students their studies, in a fun and exciting way. Previously, I opened my own computer shop, and thus, I had a tremendous advantage of all sorts of software, and Internet knowledge, that would help educate the students. Since I had an ADHD student at home (my son,) I was quite active with the ESE program. I helped ... read more

15 years experience in a broad variety of subjects!

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 Humanit ... read more

More About This Tutor...

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 educatio ... read more

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 differen ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Teaching is what I love to do. I worked as a paraprofessional for 2 years. I received my BS degree from University of South FL. I worked for Wahneta Elementary for 3 years, as a 1st and 3rd grade teacher. During those 3 years at Wahneta, I tutored for Wahneta, A + Tutor U, and Century 21.
Teaching is a part of who I am. I enjoy helping my students reach their full potential by helping them realize that they can do almost anything with a little patient,understanding, and fun. I use different strategies and manipulatives to help my students learn. To teach, reach, and make your child feel good about him or herself and their education is my goal.

More About This Tutor...

As a SUNY Oneonta graduate, I sought to continue my goal of becoming an elementary school teacer. I became employed in Schenectady city school district, working in a magnet school for almost two years. As a first grade teacher, I became very experienced and well versed in balanced literacy frameworks. This passed year, all 22 of my students showed impressive gains in their reading/phonics skills assessment based on Fountas and Pinnell, that I was required to give three times a year. Most of my students began the first grade unable to read at level A, which is the beginning of Kindergarten. By the end of first grade, 90% of my students were reading at the beginning of second grade level.
I believe that children are life-long learners and that they continue to learn long after they leave a school setting. Children all learn in different ways, but I believe they are all capable of lea ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have had many years of teaching experience in both the public school system as well as the private. I have taught first, fourth, fifth, sixth, Spanish and P.E. My most recent employment was at All Saints' Academy in Winter Haven where I taught fifth grade. I have a large, active family that was hard to balance with a full time career. I enjoy children and I enjoy teaching so I feel that tutoring would be a logical choice as a part-time career.
I have always enjoyed working with children and having my own has made me exceptionally patient. Not all students grasp meaning the first time around, and slower learners are just as capable of learning if given the support they need. These students often "fall through the cracks" if teachers only teach to the top of the class. I have always offered extra help before and after school for those that need extra support. I feel like I ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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.

I enjoy very much teaching anyone that is eager to learn. I am able to seek information an all resources necessary to provide your child with the best education possible. I believe that everyone has the ability to learn, in many different ways, depending on each individual skill. I also believe that education is the most important tool that anyone can have in their life and that educators are the main resource for making the difference in a child's or an adult's life and education.
During my 13 years of working experience at the Employment Office in Lowell, Massachusetts in conjunction with a year of working experience at CTI YouthBuild, also in Lowell, Massachusetts, I was able to provide extensive classroom training to public assistance customers and also to young adults in many different areas; to help enhance their skills in the work force field.

My efforts have resulted in three achievements that continue to directly benefit my students. (1) I maintained classroom decorum by assigning classroom positions of responsibility. (2) I introduced and encouraged the self-beneficial learning strategies of metacognition in order to combat low motivational issues. (3) I created a computer-based assessment system in order to increase the quality and completion rate of homework assignments. I believe that my students’ academic success depends not only on mastering the content, but also on learning how to teach themselves anything they wish to learn. “You can give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach him how to fish and he will feed himself and others for the rest of his life.”
In early 2006 I decided to give back to the community and entered the teaching profession in the public sector. In 2009 I became a Professionall ... read more

I started my experience as a counselor at YMCA for 4 years. Here I discovered that I had a passion for teaching young minds. I went on to working for MOSI as a teachers assistant for 2 years. Here I was able to practice my teaching style by tutoring and teaching children with science experiments. I applied to Nova in 2008 to get my Bachelors Degree in Elementary Education. I just recently finished my internship teaching 5th grade at Garden Grove Elementary School in Winter Haven. I have passed the General Knowledge and Professional Education exam and am still in the process of taking and passing my Subject Area test in Elementary Education.

I love working with children of all ages and assisting them in all areas of their lives. I love to help children succeed in areas that they are struggling in and finding new ways to help them learn. I believe all children have the ability to learn and succeed in all areas of their lives.
I graduated in 1994 from Florida Southern. For the next several years, I stayed at home to raise my three children. I then went to teach at First Methodist School in Bartow for three years. I taught fourth through eighth grade where I specialized in English, writing, and science. I am competent and able to teach any subject.
