My comments on tutoring Saxophone : Beginning / intermediate saxaphone

I have three years experience teaching in the best language schools in the world, including Berlitz International, CNA Language Schools, Brazil, and TAG IDIOMA, Brazil. I have experience as a private tutor, but also as a classroom teacher and an instructor trainer. I am fully fluent in English, Portuguese, Italian, and Swedish. ALSO... I am musically fluent in many instruments, I teach and undertand music theory, but I also can teach sight-reading and improvisational styles. I am particularly good with beginning students.
I am supportive, creative, gracious, understanding, but also clear with expectations and goals. I am well-versed in the most effective and enjoyable strategies for learning and retaining.

I am currently working at Challenger 7 Elementary School as the only Guidance Counselor. I have created a study group club with students that need study skills, organizational skills or assistance getting their work done! I have been employed as a substitute teacher and mental health counselor in the past. I enjoy working with students because a lot of their stress is due to frustration of not knowing a concept. If you work with the students on their frustration you begin to see improvement in their grades!
Very hands on type of person. I am the type of person that needs visual reminders to get my work done. I know that everyone learns in different capacities so I try to incorporate that into my teaching style. I work on identifying the students learning style and then we go from there.

More About This Tutor...

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. I was enrolled in numerous lecture and laboratory courses throughout my time at UF. In regards to teaching skills, I tutored throughout my time at UF and for the past 3 ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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.

More About This Tutor...

Before earning my BA in Communication Sciences and Disorders I began my college career as an Education major. I completed volunteer courses in “Brevard Reads” “Rolling Readers” and completed over 150 volunteer hours in Brevard schools while in the major. In small groups we went over elementary math skills, science, social studies, and reading. During my 2009 semester I volunteered as a teaching assistant in a Montessori school for children with Dyslexia and various reading difficulties. There, we used the very successful “LiPS” program to work on reading, vocabulary, spelling, and phonemic awareness in hands on ways that targeted different learning styles.
Since I myself did not learn the same way as other kids when I was a child, I find that it is easy for me to relate to my students. The best thing a teacher or tutor can do is listen and be patient. Every child can learn, i ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Every individual is different and understands things in different ways. Some learners are what I call “Book Learners” who learn well by reading books and theories taught in them while others learn much easier by hands on learning. “Hands on Learners” tend to retain more knowledge if the task or information to be learned is explained in situations that they deal with in everyday experiences. Having training and teaching experience in both the business world and in the culinary field, I am able to combine the techniques of these two types of learners to help students retain the most knowledge and be successful.
My background includes experience in restaurant training, program development, implementation, employee and student supervision, leadership as a Divisional Trainer, Culinary Program Coordinator, Instructor and Certified Executive Chef. I have experience in teaching all req ... read more

I believe in the potential of every child and am committed to their academic achievement. Through my work with children and adults with disabilities, I have learned patience and understanding; qualities that I believe make me a strong educator. I believe in modeling a learning curriculum to meet the specific needs of a child and pride myself on finding novel ways to make education fun and interesting. The best part of education, to me, is the opportunity that lies in every learning experience.
Throughout my educational career, I have gained a strong foundation of knowledge in various disciplines. I hold a BA in Psychology and have also completed pre-medical requirements during my time as an undergraduate. My liberal arts background has led me to develop extensive reading, writing, and analytical skills. These skills are complemented by a solid understanding of mathematics and ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Since earning a Bachelor of Arts degree from Baylor University, I taught English, Drama and Journalism in Texas and in New Jersey for several years, after which I spent another 10 years tutoring students from kindergarten through high school in all subjects when they were required to be home from school due to illness or other situations. I subsequently went into the corporate world and trained adults in the use of computer software and other technical needs. I also was a training coordinator at Walt Disney World for several years, which included providing Youth Education Seminars in American History and Literature.
Enabling a child to realize his full self-worth is the reward a teacher gets when he is able to work individually with a student and show that child that he can learn whatever he needs to learn. By recognizing the child’s interests and valuing him as a person, I can ... read more
