Committed To Helping You Achieve!

I taught in two public high schools in Orange and Osceola Counties in the Central Florida area for 5 years where I earned the Professional Educators Certificate to teach mathematics 6 - 12. For the past 10 years, I have been teaching at a Huntington Learning Center while privately tutoring students from the area middle, high school, and community colleges.
My teaching style adapts to the students current level of knowledge. I always model 2 or 3 problems step by step before asking the student to try a problem. A student is comfortable knowing that I have "their backs" and won't let them be frustrated for long. This gives a student confidence to try problems on their own.

Individual & Group Tutoring. Project-Based Enrichment

I have extensive experience as a k-12 and adult teacher of all subjects (excepting advanced math and science) and as a teacher of technology to all ages, including technophobes:) I offer specific subject tutoring, as well as project-based enrichment programs tailored to a student's interest. My experience is wide-ranging. I have taught home school groups in mixed age groups, created a wilderness eco-learning program in Hawaii, and managed a computer lab for middle/high school students that also trained teachers and developed technology-based curriculum. I love to teach:)

More About This Tutor...

For five years I taught swimming lessons. While swimming isnotan academic subject, this experience taught me the essentials of teaching. I worked with a large range of ages, from six months to sixty years. While in college I was a tutor/editor in the writing center all three years. Upon graduation I took two part time jobs tutoring English at elementary and secondary levels, at Knowledge Points of Tampa Bay and Lindamood- Bell learning processes of South Tampa.
I rely heavily on Socratic questioning, to strengthen the students own thinking; my goal is for him/her to not need me. I use symbol and concept imagery language to ensure the student is not simply repeating, but seeing and understanding. Learning, especially at the lower levels, need not be boring, and I enjoy teaching through games, and in counter culture environments such as reading on bean bags or under a tree. I am flex ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I love kids and I'm definitely looking forward to the time when I will have some of my own. I firmly believe in the value of education and hope to help convey that to our youth. I am an extremely understanding, patient, positive, and honest person. I am always willing to help someone in need, especially children, and I would love to have the opportunity to help educate our next generation. I know that for many children, one-on-one tutoring sessions can be more constructive than a classroom full of noisy distractions. Any child can become as successful as they want with help and encouragement in the right areas. I am determined to provide that help and encouragement to our students.
I have attended private schools for my entire educational career except for the last few months of high school. I was raised to believe that education is one of the most important things one can a ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style varies depending on the learning style of the student. I strive to make every chance to ensure your child receives the best opportunity to learn and absorb all of the information. I believe that teaching should be tailored by the student. In saying that, I am patient and have a clear way of communicating that children and young adults seem to get the most out of what I am teaching.
I attanded and graduated from the University of Florida with my BS in Health Science, graduating Cum Laude. Although my degree is in the Health Sciences field, I have extensive background in all the science fields, 4 years plus of chemistry and biology, as well as extensive experience in the reading/writing fields.

More About This Tutor...

I am a former high school math teacher. I have taught and tutored in all math levels ranging from Basic Math to Calculus. I graduated from Faulkner University with a B.A. in Math while also taking classes in Music and participating heavily in Theater. This well rounded education led me to not only teach math at Gateway High School but to also become very involved in my students extra-curricular activities. Because of this, I can easily apply math to several different fields of study including the arts. This helps to keep the student engaged and see the relevance of the math being studied.
I love teaching and working with students. As a teacher, I create an atmosphere that encourages the student to explore and rewards the student for his success. I am strong believer that the student learns best through discovery. All students can reach their potential if given the appropriate guida ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As an Ivy League graduate, I studied many different fields, including Economics, Sociology, Literature and Visual Art. I graduated as valedictorian of my high school class and scored a 2340/2400 on my SATs (800 Verbal, 800 Writing, 740 Math), as well as 800s on my French SAT II and Math IIC. I have tutored elementary, middle and high school students before, and greatly enjoy the challenge of communicating difficult material in accessible ways to students.
I prepare lesson plans for each lesson so that you as a parent will see what we are covering, and I constantly monitor the student for understanding. I strongly believe I can help your child not only do better in their studies, but also believe in their own abilities. Everyone can succeed with hard work and patience!

My professional career was in the design and development of computer-based software applications. I worked for nearly 30 years on various computer platforms, using several different languages. I also spent two years at Gateway Community College (New Haven, CT) as ad hoc instructor in Accounting, Management, Computer programming and system design. Part of my work experience included in-house presentations of new computer technology to both programmers and the end user community.

I like the child to feel comfortable with me to where they are at ease and readily ask questions. I prefer to ask the student leading questions to aide them in coming to the conclusion on their own as opposed to simply telling them information. After a few questions have been answered then I am able to help them with the details of problem and a help them build a method for solving similar problems in the future.
I have a BS degree in Interdisciplinary Natural Science and a Minor in Public Health. I worked for USF Housing and Residential Education. I also was a Peer Leader for Chemistry where I was basically a Teaching Assistant and led two sections by myself.

A Little Bit About Me...

I like to encourage and support my students. Many students don’t want to learn or do not feel they can succeed. When a student is positive and feels that sense of pride; he will open himself up more to the idea of learning. Secondly, I will always do readings and visuals to stimulate both areas of the brain to ensure it is absorbed. I also believe in repetition of information once a student comprehends what has been learned. Lastly, I like to be consistent. I have always kept the learning styles very similar. I also explain to the student what exactly is expected of him and how I will do things so he will be fully aware. This way we are on the same page as to what the teaching session will entail.
I have always had a passion for education, whether it is teaching youth or adults. I have gained about 3 additional years of teaching and now am working in a higher education setting. I ... read more
