Having been an educator for over 30 years, I love and enjoy the opportunity to work with students individually. It allows the teacher to customize the setting to be encouraging, positive and workable. The learner is able to adapt well and know that their questions and concerns will be dealt with in a safe and supportive learning envirionment. By being patient, understanding, supportive and encouraging; this will lead to a sense of achievement. Every child has that opportunity to learn, no matter what their deficits are! Nothing is more rewarding to see how a student reacts to achieving something that was unachieveable before! As an experienced professional in education, I value it's importance. Learning how to read is an essential skill that should be taught in a personal manner. By being certified in Special Education, I've kept myself abreast with current teaching styles and approa

I have worked part time as an adjunct instructor since the '70s, including 22 years with the Orlando Program of Florida Southern College, and 11 years with Valencia Community College. The later provided me with dozens of short courses in education. I also completed and retired from a civilian career with the US Army and Navy, starting as an intern, and reaching Senior Executive levels. Very recently I have been tutoring fifth grade and seventh grade students attending Lake Highland in Orlando. Also worked with math students working at Seminole State and Valencia. Students learn best from doing things. I try not to lecture, but to involve the student in the learning process. I can lecture, but I haven't found it to be as effective as other methods. I very much prefer tutoring to classroom teaching, mostly because I am helping people learn what they want to learn, and solve pr

From my own experiences as a student I have come to the opinion that the most valuable educational accomplishment one can achieve is to “learn how to learn”. This seems to be a state of mind, an epiphany if you will, which hopefully will be realized at some point in the course of an individual’s intellectual development. Such a state of mind is not usually due to the efforts of a particular instructor, nor is it the result of having taken a certain class. Rather it represents an ideal culmination of the educational process. Maybe, some would say it is the moment when the Scholar is born. Perhaps it is the moment when the true Student emerges. As instructors we may never know if we have ever contributed to such a moment of realization in a person’s life, but it is nice to think we can and it is nice to try, and over all that’s my philosophy of teaching. On a more specific level I have fo

As a teacher, I believe in keeping the students engaged by varying activities and engaging different styles of learning (ie using visuals, interactive lecturing, and hands-on activities). When I tutor, I also try to use similar tactics to keep the students engaged in the activity at hand. I believe in being very patient and easy-going, but firm when needed. Students must want to learn, but also I believe a good teacher can help facilitate that process. For three years, I have taught reading and remedial English part time at Valencia Community College. I also have four years' experience tutoring English, reading, and algebra at Valencia and Rollins College. Working in two writing centers, I have helped create grammar exercises for remedial students. I also have done one-on-one tutoring and online writing consultations.

My philosophy is to encourage and listen to students, and while giving them clear direction and guidance, to also strive to teach them to learn how to write on their own. The goal of the Rollins Writing Center was to create better writers, not better papers, and my teaching style follows that thinking. I listen to students and ask them questions, giving them concrete examples when needed. I provide them with strategies for better analysis and writing, but also encourage them to think originally and to develop their own ideas, since I believe it is important for students to learn to think and write independently, rather than just blindly follow directions. As a double-major in English and Religious Studies at Rollins College, I know how to read, write, and analyze effectively. I graduated with Honors in the English major due to the senior thesis I wrote, in which I conducted independe

I highly enjoy teaching and working with children. I understand that all children learn in their individual way and I make sure to cater to these differences.

One of the most difficult things about math is comprehending the concept. Many learn through repetition, or visual demonstration. I would think that my tutoring skills involve both. Repetition allows one to get an idea of what they are doing and it also helps develop questions. The questions help to get a full understanding of a concept. Sometimes to further complete understanding of a concept visual demonstration is needed. Based on my previous experiences in tutoring elementary school students, most of the time they really don't know the concept and are just going through the motions. If none of the two strategies mentioned above doesn't work I usually walk through everything slowly and find out where the problem is. In addition to my undergraduate degree in mechanical engineering I am currently working towards my masters in the same field. I am specializing in Thermal Flu

I take pride in my ability to be innovative and creative to teach all children the way that they learn. I truly believe that there are 25-different types of intelligence. As educators, it is out job to determine how kids learn and teach them that way; not expect them to conform to a formula or out expectation. All children are unique and are brilliant in their own unique ways. In my experience through course work and volunteer experience, I have instructed teens in mediation, leadership skills, and assisted them in making healthy choices, created a social skills curriculum, and learned various psychological techniques and skills for assisting people. By utilizing a multi-discipline approach, keeping accurate records of all sessions and interactions with the kids and their families, and communicating necessary information to team members.

As I have been training students and corporate members in communication, my clarity, conciseness and my effective body language have helped the students to understand the subjects clearly and obtain a deep mastery of the subjects. By teaching the students the thesis, the main points, and the glossary of the topic of any subject, I will make the subjects simple, logical, interesting, and easily comprehensible. I have a sincere love for the students and take real pleasure in developing in them knowledge and productive habits. Wouldn't you like to have me as a tutor! I taught math and English to 9th and 10th grade students for 2 years. My capacity for imparting knowledge to the students was so profound that I was considered as a very effective teacher.
