I have earned a bachelor’s degree in History and English, as well as a master’s degree in teaching. My educational background has given me a wide range of knowledge in the humanities, and my liberal arts education has helped me develop high reading and writing skills. I have four years of experience running writing workshops and tutoring first-year college students and non-native English speakers in study skills. From these experiences, I have gained expert knowledge in teaching literacy and study skills. Also, from my time teaching at a public high school, I am very familiar with the types of expectations teachers have of students and can help students "crack the code" of multiple choice, short answer, and research assignments and tests.
My teaching philosophy and style is founded upon the belief that all children are brilliant and can succeed. My approach to teaching is highly in ... read more

i am a high school student. I have completed three years so far. I have always maintained A and B grades and recieved awards for attendance, grades, and extracurricular activities. I have always been bragged on about my personality, hard-work ethics, and ability to help others even when not asked. All my teachers have enjoyed having me in their class.
i like to aproach the lesson with fun tactics so the student will be interested and paying attention.

Leadership and learning are indispensable to each other.

I've never actually tutored someone, but I am very good at relating with younger kids and High Schoolers. I was in band from 8th grade to 12th grade where I participated in the Front Ensemble section with keyboards, vibraphones, marimbas, xylophones and various other instruments. I was in the Wind Ensemble which is the highest band class and my last year they introduced the Percussion ensemble where I was a soloist. I was also the section leader during my last year as well. I teach a bible study class at my church where I am not always given my lesson on time, so I usually do very well under pressure. I did very well in High School by graduating with honors. I have always been in the top reading and Literature classes and I did very well in my Art classes. My grade in history was high eighties to high nineties so that was a great set of classes as well. Im postive I can help your kids o ... read more

Fun and Loving Tutor!

I teach in different ways depending on how the student learns best.
I have tutored fellow classmates, and I have often helped my siblings and friends with homework. I have helped students with reading. I graduated high school with a 3.99 GPA, and I was the valedictorian of my sixth grade class. I won a spelling bee in fifth grade. I placed second in a spelling bee in eighth grade.

More About This Tutor...

Teaching has been my career ever since I entered a primary classroom at age 16 and finished teaching graduate and undergraduate students. I was trained as a teacher at The Leewards Teachers' Training College (in Antigua), an affiliate of University of the West Indies (Jamaica). As a Primary and Secondary School teacher, I taught English Grammar, Mathematics, and the Social Sciences. Although I have strong mathematical skills, I present myself here primarily as an English teacher, because of my expert facility with the grammar, usage, and vocabulary of the language. At my last graduate school (Vanderbilt U., Nashville, TN), I was employed by the Graduate Dept. of Religion as the Writing Tutor for graduate students who were preparing their term papers for professors. My assignment was to help students present papers free of grammatical errors and with correct stylistic composition, precise ... read more

Education is more than valuable

I typically provide homework help,studying tips, and methods of memorization. My strength is in writing, proofreading, spelling and punctuation,grammar, and reading comprehension. Other skills include public speaking skills, presentation skills, and thinking through the problem in order to move past the problem. In most instances, the metbod to overcoming academic obstacles, the way to overcome is in your approach.
I usually review the assignments,its objectives,and apply reasoning to the work, so the end result makes more sense. It's easier to remember when it makes sense to you.

Summary of Experience I have taught for the last three years (2005-2008) at an Elementary school in Palm Beach County. I taught third grade. This is the grade level where students are expected to pass the Reading portion of the FCAT test in order to be promoted to the next grade. Therefore, one of my main responsibilities was to maintain records of the students’ progress. Prior to that, I was a substitute teacher in Broward County at the elementary level. My spouse was transferred to Tallahassee this year, and this is what brought me here. At the moment I volunteer at the Leroy Collins Public Library as an ESOL (English as a Second Language) tutor. I am currently certified in the state of Florida in Elementary Education (K-12, and Spanish. I also worked for the Florida Department of Agriculture for eight years, and overseas at bilingual schools

All children are unique, and all need a secure, caring and stimulating environment in which to grow and mature emotionally, intellectually, physically and socially. My function and desire,as a teacher, is to aid students in meeting their fullest potential in these areas by providing an environment that is safe, supports risk-taking and invites a sharing of ideas. There are three elements that are conducive to establishing such an environment, (1) the teacher as a guide,(2)allowing the child’s natural curiosity to direct his/her learning and(3)promoting respect for all things and all people. My personality, love for teaching and love for students lends itself to these accomplishments.
I earned a BS degree in history, which I taught in high school. I had minors in Biology and English and tutored students in these areas. My second degree, MS in School Administration, led me to be prin ... read more
