Praxis Exam Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Bradenton, FL

Teach a man to fish...is for life. Tutoring is the same, especially with younger children. I haven't met a student yet who is unable to learn. My job is to find the method that will best enable students to self-actualize their learning. A success is converting the child's approach and passion for learning. If I helped to change the child's mind about learning, I have literally altered the course of his/her life in a positive way. I have a versatile background that began with two business degrees and progressed to a professional career in purchasing and sales. I discovered along the way that my true passion was teaching and I can be more effective in a tutoring one-on-one situation than a classroom setting. I am highly proficient and have tutored nearly all subjects and grade levels.

One of the reasons I liked math when I was a student myself was because there is always one right answer. However, what I love to teach my students is that there are always multiple ways to find that answer. I often demonstrate several ways to solve a problem and look out at my students and see their “light bulbs” go off at different points of the lesson. Because children all learn differently and at different speeds, I think it is important to take the time to expose them to various methods of problem solving. In middle school, I believe it is crucial to give students all the tools they need to be critical thinkers. I also focus on teaching organizational skills and practical applications of concepts. Upon completing my degree in Marketing at Notre Dame and after internships in the banking and advertising agencies, I knew the corporate world was not for me. I took a position in th

The following is a list of the disciplines in science for which I have experience teaching: Biology (regular and honors), Ecology, Physical, Earth & Space, Anatomy & Physiology (regular and honors), and Marine Science. I also have experience tutoring high school and university students one-on-one and in small groups. I take a student-centered, hands-on approach to teaching. Individual learning styles must be addressed, and tutoring is an excellent way for a student to receive the type of instruction best suited for his/her learning style(s). Science can

I am a teacher because I enjoy helping students. I enjoy teaching and I enjoy seeing students reacting to unerstanding concepts. I strive to have students understanding the concepts they are working to learn. I teach at the rate of student's understanding. It is not beneficial to go on without students understanding the previous concepts. Since I have a lot of classroom experience, I can present several explanations for difficult concepts. My students have always done well on AP Physics exams, New York Regents exams, and other aptitude tests. I have taught physics and mathematics in Maine, New Hampshire, New York, and Florida. I have taught mathematics through calculus and AP Physics. The majority of my experience has been at the high school level. In addition I have tutored students at summer camps. I have also tutored students preparing to take the New York Regents Examinations.

Over the last three years I have worked in Hillsborough County as a Middle School Science Teacher. After three years of teaching Science I had a strong desire to work with ESE and Special Needs children so I became a Sub for Hillsborough County so I could travel where need and work with various children. Prior to teaching in FL, I taught in SC and provided reading pull out in WV. During my time in WV I worked on a dual Masters in Literacy and Elementary Education, but was unable to finish it due to lack of aid. While teaching FL, I have also tutored children privately and with a SES service. I love working with children of all ages. I feel that all children can learn and that even the most struggling learners can improve if given encouragement and success. I am easy going, creative, and patient when it comes to teaching.
