Entrance Exams Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Bay Pines, FL

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 taught

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.

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 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.

Possessing strong academic qualifications and leadership give me the advantage in helping others. I off

I work with any student that is welling to put some effort into learning. The students work for improvement and I work for different avenues of presentation. Math learning takes time and memory skills, without good practice techniques the material studied will just be lost in memory. The key to success is knowing what to learn and how to learn it. I am an USF graduate, GO BULLS. I have 6 years as a substitute teacher with Pinellas County Schools in math, science, social studies, language arts and a few other subjects. I have tutored in Math and Science free of charge. I like helping people if I can.

As a teenager, I became an Eagle Scout and was a peer mentor (Big Bro./Big Sis.). I am an Earlham College graduate with a BA in Japanese Studies. After graduation I went on a study-abroad program to Japan and taught English to junior high students, and tutored elementary students in Japanese upon returning to the U.S. I was a counselor at a camp for teenage boys with behavior issues where I provided therapeutic action and wrote daily individualized reports. I have assisted in two classrooms and instructed P.E. at a Montessori school. I lead a classroom of lower elementary students (6-9 yo). I have extensive experience tutoring, teaching, and managing individual and groups of children. Each child is unique and learns in different ways. By being an active participant, children are able to 'construct' their education more impressionistically, with the understanding that auditory and visu

Teaching and tutoring, while similar, are actually two distinct practices. While teaching presents a subject to a large group of students, tutoring requires the tutor to work with an individual to determine his or her strengths and weaknesses, and go forward from there. As a tutor, it is extremely important to identify an individual's needs and work together accordingly. I am currently a middle school math teacher in Hollywood Florida. Prior to accepting my current job, I taught English in Japan for two years. My teaching experience, along with a liberal arts education at Emory University, has primed me to be a successful tutor in a variety of different subjects.

My teaching style is very hands-on and creative. I try to incorporate technology whenever possible, and try to create lessons that use multiple mediums (video, music, writing, discussion, etc) so a student will have the opportunity to grasp concepts in a variety of ways. I am a very patient person, and while I want my students to succeed acidemically, I also want them to have an interest in what he/she is learning, which is why I try to keep my lessons creative and develope them based on the interesets of my students. I have had the privelage of growing up in a family of educators. My great grandmother started a Montessori school in my home town that is owned and operated by my mother and grandmother to this day. I am a recent graduate of FSU with a BS in English education. I am passionate about helping students learn confidently, and pride myself on innovative lessons to achieve these

As a graduate of Humboldt State University with a BA and a 2 year post-graduate certificate to teach, I have been led through an array of opportunities over 28 years. I have dealt with special needs children, teens, preschoolers, elementary children and taught any subject placed in front of me. In addition, I taught Drama, Speech, Creative Writing, Script Writing and Math at local Cooperative Groups in the state of Florida. The growth that each student achieves is my best reward. I love learning and love to pass that on. In tutoring, I first work at instilling confidence and apply small victories to achieve that goal. I find the learning style of the student and modify the information in ways that can make them more successful. I look at each student as an individual with specific learning styles that they respond best to. My goal is to identify the learning style or styles of yo

I have developed my teaching style by watching the best and worst teachers I have had, and learning from them. I am a patient teacher who gives students praise for their accomplishments and the tools to correct their mistakes. I find the best way to teach a lesson is to lay the foundation, and then make the connections to the next level. Having a pupil fully understand the subject, not just get the right answer, is what drives my teaching. I have been a swim coach, teaching children ages four to seventeen how to swim. I have a bachelor degree in Biochemistry and Biophysics, giving me a firm grasp of the sciences. My degree is a liberal arts degree, requiring of me work in all subjects and an ability to fully express myself. Currently, I own my own business and train new employees in operations and sales.

I am an applied scientist with extensive experience in the Air Force, industry and education. My doctorate is in physics but I have been a weather forecaster, a school board member and president of a state dairy goat association. I have written numerous technical reports and project proposals and have graded thousands of lab reports. My vast and varied background enables me to connect math and science concepts to everyday life, thus enhancing understanding and retention. I have tutored students in English, physics, mathematics and earth science. I believe learning is easiest when students are having fun. It is for this reason that I always try to connect concepts to things the student knows or wants to know. There is a real joy in learning new things and my goal is to nurture the excitement of discovery. I am patient, easy going and considerate. I realize each student has a unique
