If it can be fun, make it fun. If not, make it short.

Throughout my teaching and tutoring career, I have often found that I can help my students achieve beyond what was expected of them. At the end of this process, my biggest joy is to see my student successfully working on the tasks without my assistance. I've taught in public school and private school from PreK through 12th grade and even adult learners. Elementary students have learned to read. A high school senior learned to do basic math for the first time in his life. Homeschooling my own children was another such amazing time in my growth as an educator. I love sharing my knowledge, or even learning together with my students. One such case was when I coached a parent through her citizenship exam practice. Another was when I prepped a friend for a lifeguard exam that she had failed twice. Seeing my students of all ages succeed is a joy.
My motto is if at all possible, I want ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I learn how the student needs to be educated and teach to the style that they need.
I believe that all children can learn and learn well. I enjoy working with students and teaching has always been a passion of mine. Before moving to Florida, I tutored at a community college in CT. I worked with students in the areas of French, Spanish and English. In Florida, I worked for six years as a paraprofessional at a school for children with learning disabilities. I have worked with many students in various areas for home school and public school. I taught grades 2 to 12 in math, reading and history. I am certified in Structure of the Intellect, that focuses on how a child learns based on 27 different intelligences in order to make proper gains in education. I am currently working for a private school in the Baldwin Oaks area as a math teacher for grades 3-9. Many of our children have lea ... read more

My comments on tutoring Dyslexia : I have over 15 years of tutoring experience, over 5 years of Academic Teaching Experience, which includes being a Student Advocate and Para-Educator. I have a degree in Psychology, and one of my focus is Learning Disabilities, ADD/ADHD, and Behavioral Modification. While working as a Student Advocate I had to: Work with at-risk elementary children Motivate children to learn and improve their conditions Meet with students one-on-one-, in groups settings, and do classroom presentations on character building lessons. Behavioral management and discipline plans Keep track on truancy problems Conduct Suicide Prevention Groups. As a Para-Educator my tasks included: Help elementary students from 2nd grade to 6th grade in their writing and reading skills. Work with students who have moderate to severe disabilities (learning, physical, and mental disabilities). Teaching functional and academic skills. Work with students in small groups. Use appropriate techniques for student and classroom management. Direct small groups of students in various areas of academics.

Having parents that place a great emphasis in achieving higher education, I graduated from high school with the age of 15 years old and was accepted in National Tsing Hua University, Taiwan, for the degree in Life Science Biology. While studying in Taiwan,I offered individual tutoring in Spanish and English for college students and adults who wanted to improve their knowledge on the language. After two years of studying in Taiwan, I decided to expand my horizons in education and applied for Brigham Young University Hawaii for the major of Psychology.During the time I spent studying in Brigham Young University Hawaii, I worked for the Counseling Department as tutor for a variety of subjects from Foreign Languages (such as Chinese and Spanish) to General Education (such as Psychology, Biology, History, Art, etc). I also worked as an Academic Advisor’s Assistant, where I could help my ... read more

I believe students have different learning styles, and I can adapt lessons based on their individual style and needs. I can challenge students without overwhelming them and causing balking or "burnout". I quickly establish a rapport by making the student feel at ease. By identifying the student's strengths and weaknesses I can help them without wasting time on skills they already have.
I have over a decade of experience working with both regular education students and those with exceptionalities. I have worked with elementary and middle school level students in all subject areas. My strengths are in reading and math. I am ESOL endorsed and can help children struggling with English experience success.

My comments on tutoring Dyslexia : I can help you with techniques you are practicing from your therapist and teacher, as well as offer you techniques that have worked with my students in the past.

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:)

As a veteran Specific Learning Disabilities (SLD) teacher, I have assisted hundreds of struggling students learning to read and write. During the past several years my job has been Support Facilitation, helping SLD students in the general education classroom. As a professional teacher, I can work well with all kinds of students.I have worked with all ethnicities and income levels. Teaching SLD students generally involves diagnostic/prescriptive teaching, which is very similar to the type of tutoring used by organizations working with Title 1 Florida schools.
My teaching style is very dependent on learner style. I identify the way the student learns best and go from there. Motivation of struggling students is often dependent on the relationship of the student to the teacher, so it is very important that teachers reach out to care and build trust with the learner. I am flexible, posi ... read more

My first teaching experience was in a private school for children with learning disabilities. After gaining that experience for several years, I was then employed in the public elementary school. While raising my family I spent 20 plus years homeschooling my own five children from K-12th grade. As my children grew up I developed a private tutoring service working with children of all ages on a wide range of skills from learning to read to Algebra I. I am also employed as a clinician with a private company that remediates and retrains the brain with special programs for people with specific learning disabilities.
Having many years of teaching and parenting experience I am comfortable with all ages and all personalities. I am a warm, soft-spoken person who is able to make children feel relaxed and comfortable, yet I maintain authority and stucture to challenge and motivate. I am libe ... read more

While earning my degree in physics at the University of Central Florida I found that tutoring was an excellent experience for both my students and me. I have tutored many different subjects including math(from algebra to differential equations), astronomy, physics, chemistry and biology. I taught middle school students through presentations of physics in films. I also aided my student in their research papers and power point presentations as I feel comprehension and writing skills are an important part of science. I truly enjoyed doing this and hope to continue tutoring and teaching.
Throughout my years of tutoring I have found that there are many different ways that people learn. Once you figure this out learning is easy and enjoyable. I first go over what my students have been doing to learn and study the material. Once we have established their individual learning style, we go o ... read more

Teaching is an art. It can and does vary for each individual. When I teach, I first attempt to assess what type of learner the child is. What causes the child to become a sponge? My goal is to provide the best understanding of the material possible. I firmly believe that with a if you allow the person to do the work and just simply facillitate them, they will come to realize they more than likely know alot more than they originally thought. This process helps to boost self-esteem which can at times are shown by the grades of the students after our tutoring sessions and even during.
As a future physician, working with people I find is necessary in order to be as efficient in every way possible. In the last five years, I have enjoyed working with kids of all ages as a tutor to middle school kids in high school, and then a tutor to college kids when at Valencia, and then as a tutor fo ... read more

I have experience working with children 1-15 years old. Over the last eight years, I have been a tutor, a full-time nanny, taught gymnastics classes, worked in a pre-school, taught second grade in a Seminole county school, and taught at an international school in Japan. I have a degree in Elementary Education from the University of Central Florida and a ESOL certification. I am comfortable teaching all subjects and believe learning can be fun!
I like to make learning fun. I include a variety of games and hands-on activities to help encourage learning. I also think it is important to help the students become more confident in their abilities. I truly love teaching and watching students grow.
