American History is one of my top subjects! History was my minor in college and I have remained an avid student of American and World History. Because I was a college and university professor for decades, I saw the value of incorporating history into the study of literature. They are mutually illuminating fields. My extensive European, Central American and Caribbean travels have enriched my knowledge of history.

I am a serious, dedicated professional educator who is also hip, easygoing and fun. I enjoy teaching and I will make sure you enjoy learning from me.
I have been a college and university professor of English for over three decades. I have also taught many history and humanities courses. I have taught all ages, from junior high students through traditional college-ages students to adults and seniors. I make learning fun and easy. I enjoy working with students of many nationalities, interests and cultures.

My comments on tutoring American History : Bachelor of Arts in History from the University of Miami. Cited as a source in a scholarly paper on abolition in the British Empire.

I have over 5000 hours (nearly 10 years) of tutoring experience, including the SAT, ACT, GRE, GMAT, LSAT and other selected subjects. I have been helping high school and college students get accepted to undergraduate and graduate programs all over the United States, including UF, Michigan, Stanford, FSU, UCF, and many others. My first teaching experience was with the Department of Juvenile Justice when I was fresh out of college. It was, believe it or not, a lot of fun! When I went on to Law School I was fortunate enough to be selected as a Teaching Assistant for Legal Research & Writing and Appellate Advocacy. I also tutored first year law students as a member of the Florida Law Review. Recently, I spent a quarter teaching bankruptcy law to paralegal students in Madison, WI, and had a great time doing so. My students seemed to enjoy it nearly as much as I did. Now that I am ba ... read more

Professional, Experienced, Passionate Teacher and Tutor

I believe that all students can and will achieve academic success given appropriate instruction; i.e., instruction that is differentiated according to students' specific needs, learning styles, interests, and personal goals. As a classroom teacher and as a personal tutor, I have seen almost miraculous results in a relatively short period of time, both in terms of academic achievement and student confidence. Passion and enthusiasm for learning is contagious, and I am a carrier. For a dedicated instructor, nothing is more satisfying than watching a student "catch" the learning bug.
After attending (and teaching in) a graduate program in American/British Literature and Language at L.S.U., I realized that my true calling was teaching. I began teaching English, Journalism, S.A.T. Prep., Latin, and other subjects in Springfield, MA in 2003 in an alternative, urban high school. I t ... read more

I hear and I forget. I see and I remember.I do and I get it.

I believe that implementing the right tools, along with clearly stating what the student needs to learn, along with discussion, will ensure student success.Using multisensory resources, creatively using the newly formed knowledge, along with pre-testing will foster memory and recall.
The experience I have gained while studying Education and Psychology, along with administrating exams for Wonderlic Scholoastic Testing and tutoring has enabled me to learn through understanding, hard work and dedication. I have learned through extensive courses in Psychology on how we learn, education courses that break learning down, and working with children and adolescence for over ten years with tutoring and patience, that with the proper tools and guidance, anything can be achieved.

I love teaching and all aspects of teaching. I believe we are all capable of learning our required material, that every one of us just learns in different ways and at a different pace. I am energetic, encouraging, patient, and considerate. I want to see people succeed and I am here for anyone that needs help. I like to use traditional and non-traditional methods until I can figure out the best way the child is going to learn. I want to make an impact in our children's lives to show them learning can be fun, and for most, it is easier than anticipated.
As a later graduate (36 years young), I consider myself to be driven, goal-oriented, and motivated. I have worn a lot of hats throughout my career and I have trained or taught many people across all age groups. I've earned my BA in History and am currently working on my MA in American History. With my experience and knowledge, I would ... read more

I enjoy to watch other people succeed and do better at the subject they find challenging as I can relate to such frustrations. -Enthusiastic, creative and patience are some of my qualities that I love using while I explain.

A Little Bit About Me...

Tutoring is not my part-time job, it is a full time endeavor. I tutor in many subjects including Elementary, Middle and High School curriculums. I tutor all ages. By working with my students, their parents and teachers, we formulate a plan and goals for our sessions. Sometimes I am a tutor for a test, or a coach for a project or a study skills adviser. I have experience working with students with ADHD and those with specific learning issues and IEP's.

Specializing in language skills, logic, and reasoning.

As a contented student at Full Sail University, I am pursuing a Master's in Fine Arts in Creative Writing. I volunteer for Graduate Honors research in Latino/a Caribbean Studies at the University of South Florida, and serve as a freelance consultant for an aspiring media entertainment company. In addition, my Bachelor’s Degree in Literary Studies, Associates Degree in Education, and professionally polished communication skills are invaluable as a tutor. I have learned to be disciplined and skilled in the acquisition of critical thinking, written communication, analysis, logic and reasoning. To be literate and articulate in various languages is not only handy, but eases the transition of language barriers which allows me to continually acquire polished skills in all forms of expression.
Possessing strong academic qualifications and leadership give me the advantage in helping others. ... read more

American History is one of my top subjects! I have extensive experience teaching this subject and I have an M.A. in social studies.

I am an honors graduate of U.S.F. with forty years of teaching experience. In addition to my B.A. and M.A. degrees, I completed all cousework for the ED.D. I have taught FCAT preperation in middle school in math and reading. I have also taught GED Prep in the evenings. I taught junior high math one year. I have also written two books. One is a history jokebook. The other is a memoir of humorous classroom incidents. I believe that these experiences qualify me to tutor social studies, reading, and math.
My style is student centered. I always try to provide a positive atmosphere for learning. My jokes were a technique to help accomplish that goal. As a GED teacher I always began with a pretest and documented student progress to correct any deficiencies. I believe in positive reinforcement and helping students achieve their goals which gives us both a sense of accomplishment.
