I helped many students who had previously given up hope to pass the CLAST exam and I taught the math portion of an SAT prep course through FGCU's CAA. I tutored LD students through Adaptive Services at FGCU I taught labs at FGCU for intermediate and college algebra, statistics and business calculus. I taught AP Calculus and AP Statistics at a private school. I taught Pre-calc and Algebra II through Lee County School District. Practice-Theory-Practice. I try to stay very focused on doing examples and practice problems. Some theory is necessary for a deep understanding, but it has to come at the right time. The student first needs some practice or at least an attempt to appreciate the process involved in solving a problem. Then I try and bring to light any issues and cover some theory. Then we do more practice.

I have done private tutoring of high school students in math from pre-algebra to calculus and in other subjects. I have also home schooled adopted daughters from lower grades to high school level, including teaching English as a second language. In graduate school I was a teaching assistant in an electric machinery laboratory for non-electrical engineering majors. My own experience with standardized tests includes having taken the ACT in 1971 with scores ranging from 22 (76th percentile) in English to 31 (97th percentile) in math with a composite of 27 (93rd percentile) and having passed the GRE in 1975. Other previous experience includes 34 years experience as a communication system engineer. This experience includes satellite communications and other communications for the US military, NASA, FAA, and commercial customers. Antennas and radio propagation were special areas of profe

I am a professional teacher. I have 15 years of experience teaching. I have taught Math and Computer Science in college. Also I have taught in both public and private school systems. I have experience private tutoring for students in school, college and also university. I do understand that all students learn at different degrees but they all can learn better. So I am always teaching my students with considering their individual characteristics. I enjoy teaching because I very often hear from my students that they really start to understand Math or Computer Science better only when I take them to learn. Working one-on-one with a student is a great opportunity to really focus on the individual characteristics and academic needs of the student and helping them to be more successful in learning.

One on one or group. Lessons taught, homework assigned, then follow up of homework assignment. My experience, (both academic and work)has been widely varied, ranging from research and engineering to financial management in a corporate environment, followed by golf course design and landscape management. In addition I used my experience in construction and woodworking to build and market patio furniture. Unfortunately the housing depression of the mid 2000's caused the business to be non profitable and was closed. Since 2005 I have been semi retired and used my construction experience to work at a lumber and hardware store.

Growing up the son of an English teacher, and a high school principal, education was obviously paramount in the home environment. I graduated from Indiana University with Business Degree, most of my work experience was in training and development of new employees, with a strong emphasis on demonstration, explaination and using real world applications. As a licensed commercial pool contractor, math, physics, chemistry, hydraulics, technical interpretation and common sense are all necessary skills used everyday in a real setting. Having two children in high school, I have been a math and science tutor for many years. I remember thinking years ago: "What will I ever use this for?" In tutoring my children, sometimes their friends, in addition to training my employees, I strive to create excitement by showing a need and an application for new information. I tend to retain information if I h

I have 25+ years experience in most aspects of Computer Science. I am currently a Senior Systems Analyst at Fidelity Investments, Boston Mass, and have been working there since 1981. I was an independent Cousultant developing and implementing computer-based systems for 10 years prior. I was a volunteer Mathematics tutor at my daughters Elementary School for 2 years. I can show many ways to solve a problem, depending on the students way of processing information. I make learning fun and can adapt easily to each individual students learning style. Having the student finally understand new concepts is the most rewarding part of the process. I teach because I enjoy it, not because I need the money.

I have always been fascinated by numbers and how the analysis of numbers can be used in nearly everything we do. I have a MBA from a top 20 program that has helped me further develop my mathematical skills in statistics and calculus. I have helped tutor children in various after-school volunteer programs and was a paid tutor while in undergrad and grad school. While the tutoring ran the gamut, I tended to focus on math (algebra, stats), finance/accounting and writing (typically logical essays not creative writing). I believe the first step is to always ascertain where a student is in their comprehension of the subject and what their propensity is to learn (i.e. quick learner, learns by examples etc.). That gives me an idea of how fast/slow to go and how best to get to cement actual learning. Generally, I like to get the student to arrive at answers by asking pointed questions

I have a lot of passion when in comes to teaching. I believe that everyone is capable of learning Chemistry, Biology, and Mathematics. You just have to be able use different learning techniques. Each person is different and I believe I am capable of teaching all ages and an array of learners. I encourage learning by using a number of different manipulatives, hands on activities, and various forms of experiments. By incorporating open-ended questions, and cooperative learning I am able to facilitate a highly interactive and inquisitive learning environment. In addition, I utilize weekly quizzes, weekly labs and monthly tests to track the student’s progress. With over eight years of hands-on, successful teaching experience, I am confident in my ability and passion to become a tutor for either Mathematics or Chemistry. I have earned a Bachelor’s degree in Biology, a minor in Math

As a non-traditional student, my college experience awarded me many advantages, as well as, many opportunities to uncover hidden skills. I began tutoring for Student Support Services while attending community college in Southwest Virginia. I worked with adults, disabled and traditional students in many subject areas. This led to establishing the Eagle's Wing Mentoring Program while attending Florida Gulf Coast University for the first two years. I later transferred to the Office of Adaptive Services where I am currently still working with a wide variety of students. As I discovered while in college, I have been instructing people all of my life. While working in the food-service industry for the past twenty-plus years, I have held supervisory positions and provided training to literally hundreds of employees. This natural ability to work with others became apparent when I began tut

It is important for all children to have an equal opportunity to learn. This means that I must teach in various styles or to multiple intelligences so that each student is able to understand materials taught. In the appropriate environment and with appropriate materials, it is possible that each child can be a success, given that the teacher understands that not all students learn in the same manner. With degrees from one of the nations top universities, I have many experiences working with students. I have worked with students through Jumpstart (an AmeriCorps program), as a youth camp specialist, and as a after school program coordinator at an elementary school in Naples. I am currently working on a graduate degree in School Counseling. I believe that helping youth succeed to be their best is very important and must be a priority.

My educational background has given me a strong foundation in several areas of higher education. My undergraduate training began in Biomedical Engineering; however, I switched my focus to Biological Sciences, with an emphasis on Neurobiology and Physiology, in order prepare myself for further education in dentistry. I attended dental school, which relied heavily on my understanding of math, science, and engineering. My undergraduate studies also included a wide array of fine arts course work. My writing skills are strong and were utilized in writing essays, research papers, and laboratory reports. I worked during dental school as a teaching assistant for laboratory and lecture courses, which included tutoring students in dental course work. Additionally, I was hired upon graduation from dental school as an assistant professor, and taught clinical and laboratory courses in dental prost
