Entrance Exams Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Bradenton, 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.

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. I off

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 believe in meeting the student at his level of need and then individualizing the teaching as much as possible to fill the gaps in order to bring the educational level in line with expectations or even beyond expectations. I believe in the student's ownership of his own education and until the learning is internalized and made a part of his everyday existence, the learning is merely facts that are easily forgotten. Discovery and discussion are the primary forms of teaching that I use along with modeling. Through these methods, a student learns at his own pace and within the context of what he already knows. In most cases, the student doesn't even realize he is learning. To me that is goal: for a student to realize that learning is a life-long process and that learning for learning's sake should be a part of our everyday lives. That ability is what I seek for all of my students be

I love tutoring, especially when students get it! The "light bulb" goes on.The most remarks I get are - "why did'nt my teacher show us that way?" I was chosen to teach math at a charter middle school; but the Board of Education (Manatee) voted to shut down that school after three days on the job. Subsequently, I began tutoring Math at Manatee Community College for three years. I've taken several refresher Math courses at MCC (3.66 GPA). This included 2 courses with Dr. Paul Nolting, author of the book "Winning at Math"; which concentrated on visual, auditory and tactile methoda of learning. I tend to treat Math as a Game; how do I (the student) get to the answer? I go over the basics, set up the "plan of attack" to reach a conclusion. It's re-emphasizing the "Rules of the Game". I really want to get the parent(s) involved in this process.

I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but they each have their own learning style. They each have their own strengths, also. I like to encourage students who are struggling by showing them their strengths. Many times students become overwhelmed and discouraged when they are struggling in school. If they lose confidence in their ability to learn and achieve, it hinders their ability to learn. If a child is taught by someone who believes in him/her miracles can happen. One teacher can make all of the difference. I love being that teacher! I graduated from USF in 2000. I have taught in public schools, private school, middle school, elementary school, and adults how to read and to speak English. I have always wanted to be a teacher, but somehow have not found my niche. I have tutored one my neighborhood kids in 6th grade math. English is my speciali

I achieved Summa Cum Laude honors from Sacred Heart University (SHU) and Magna Cum Laude honors from the University of South Florida (USF). In addition, I also graduated with the Gold Medal of Excellence (as the #1 computer science graduate in my class) at SHU. I have tutored students at the high school and college level for over nine years in varying disciplines: mathematics, sciences, computer science, psychology, and writing to name a few. Aside from my tutoring experience and academic success, I have real-world experience working in the computer science and healthcare industry. This knowledge allows me to create a simple to understand, yet powerful "connection of interest" between the student and their enthusiasm to learn. In other words, I am able to justify why the information the student is learning is relevant and how it applies to the real world. I enjoy challenges and help

My teacher style reflects my strong beliefs in interaction and relevance as the keys to successful learning. Moreover, teaching in a wide variety of settings has instilled in me the importance of personal attention to the whole student. Professor John Rassias developed the Rassias Method (R)to rapidly teach language to Peace Corps volunteers. It engages the students on a logical, emotional and interpersonal level immediately, mimicking the immersion environment of real international settings to the greatest degree possible. While this level of instruction is the ideal, I have dealt with the most fundamental and challenging situations of homesick students and young people with serious challenges in their personal lives. Such challenges are primary needs, and the pursuit of mastery never overshadows such concerns in my instruction Beginning with my undergraduate career at Dartmouth College

As a graduate of Florida State University I always have had a passion for music and education. I have earned a BS and MS in Specific Learning Disabilities, Varying Exceptionalities, and English Speakers of Other Languages. I have always had a desire to work with students who have difficulties learning. I enjoy finding new ways to make learning come alive for these students. I have tutored for 4 years and even been an advocate for the parent in an IEP meeting. I have taught in the public schools all grades for 12 years. I am passionate about all students having an equal opportunity to learn. I believe all children can and will learn if given the right environment. I empower and encourage students through many different strategies. Making learning fun and exciting is often the tool that is missing in the classroom as well as differentiated instruction.
