Florida Writes Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Bay Pines, FL

Taught state test writing preparation for many years in Massachusetts public alternative schools. Tutor extensively to prepare students for state and college exams. 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 (and tutored after school) until I moved to Florida in 2009, when my spouse began graduate studies at U.S.F. Since then, I have continued to tutor a wide range of students in subjects ranging from high school Latin, 5th grade Math, college English, S.A.T. and G.E.D. Preparation, and graduate level writing, and I have extensive training and experience with students who struggle with dyslexia, ADD/ADHD and ESL issues, as we

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.

My teaching philosophy is that all children can learn if the teacher is patient and can tailor the learning experience to the child's preferred learning style. I am a highly energetic and creative teacher who believes that studentslearn best when the lessons ar presented in an engaging manner that encourages questions and creative thinking. I believe inter-active learning that supports each individual student's abilities and potential is preferable over traditional methods that rely on memorization and drills. Upon retiring from IBM I became certified as a teacher. I have taught as a substitute at all levels and in all subjects, including art and music. I taught 6th grade language arts at Pineview Middle School for 1 semester and most recently was a long-term sub for 6th grade math and science at a Pinellas County charter school

My teaching style is hands-on. I think that students need to experience as much of the concept as possible in order to learn about it. I know how to differentiate my teaching for all levels and learning styles, and I think that motivating students is the best thing a teacher can do to encourage learning. I have a bachelor degree from the University of South Florida where I graduated Magna cum Laude. After graduating I entered a teaching certification program and am now a certified elementary education teacher. I have a year of teaching experience in grades K-6 as well as experience with ESOL and ESE students.

I am a very energetic yet patient person. I believe in order for a teacher to be effective, they must possess these qualities. I must be extremely energetic to keep up with the students and their face pace lifestyles yet be patient when situations are more serious. Patience is a key factor in effective teaching. I must be patient when students are learning. I am understanding and considerate when I see that a student is struggling. I can identify a situation and then effectively solve it in the best interest of the student. My goal is to help every child learn. I believe that all children can meet their potential if they are given the tools and support they need to succeed. I love teaching and working with students because its my passion. While working in various schools in Pinellas County, I was able to venture out and experience different aspects in all grades from Kindergarten to 5th.

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. 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.
