I have a Bachelors (BA) degree in Child Education with my Masters degree (MA) in Special Needs Education. For the past three years I have worked as an SEN teacher working with both Autistic and Epileptic people both in school and and as a private tutor / carer in their homes. Whether working in a classroom or one-on-one at home I treat my pupil as a friend and confidant working with him/her to gain the pupils confidence and trust as the building block for their educational needs. I am an outgoing person and try to to make learning as fun as can be but with a strict approach to achieving goals. As well as educational needs I also work with the pupil on lifestyle needs, whether going shopping, tying shoelaces painting pictures all of this falls under SEN education. I have traveled the world with my husband for the past 8 years before moving to the USA. I have vast experience of working wi

As a graduate student I taught pre-service teachers educational psychology and multicultural perspectives on learning. As a graduate student in school pscyhology and practicing school psychologist I assessed students learning ability and designed interventions to improve their academic skills. My writing and editing skills are very good. I have extensive experience working with special education students. I have experience tutoring students in reading and teaching students with autism. I work best in a one-on-one situation. I feel that students learn best in a relaxed atmosphere where learning is fun. Students also need to see that they are making progress and feel confident in their ability, so I try to devise a system that shows them their progress and motivates them toward a stated goal. I also believe strongly in variety. All students learn differently and it is important to

I am qualified to assist with aspects of their education and training, if this something you'd like. I had a teaching credential and at one time as a full time teachers aide, with experience in grades first to six and train staff in a variety of software programs. I am currently retired from the classroom, but have the ability to tutor basic subjects and to oversee homework assignments and special curriculum-related projects. What I like most about tutoring is the great nervous energy and excitement I feel as I work with children, this despite the fact that I have been tutoring for over 5 years. The anticipation of meeting so many new people and working with other students and starting adventure in learning gets my juices flowing. It is the excitements of the students that I come across keep my interest each time I interact with them. It never ceases to amaze me how every student devel

I worked teaching and tutoring children and young adultos for the past 20 years, back in my country and in the USA. I have earn two bachelors degrees, Law and Social Psyhcology, in Argentina and a Family Mediator certification in Florida. I tutored children in Spanish and elementary shcool themes as a counselor for victims of Domestic Violence. I have a long experience in writing both English and Spanish due my grammatical skills learned in my two careers. I have a very unique way to approach children to teach them a specific theme, because I use my knowledge in human behavior in which I've been trained for more than 10 years. I am able to give them time and consideration for their own way to go into the learning process. I am a beliver that we learn from them too in that process. My experience as a tutor is a balance of my proffesional and personal skills to provide children the ri

My compassionate teaching style is relaxed; stressing self-discipline and time management skills while learning to focus on the fundamental concepts in any discipline in a concrete and consecutive manner. Positive recognition and rewarding good behavior is a fundamental part of my style including clearly communicating the subject matter in a concise, practical, sequential manner from the the basic simpler material to the more difficult material, one step at a time. I hope to help all students that I meet to first and foremost feel good and positive about their abilities and themselves and strive to achieve their educational goals and do their best. As a graduate of Florida International University with a Master of Science in Education, I learned the importance of teaching by studying various subjects to enhance my teaching abilities and help me communicate in a positive and clear manne

I am a seasoned professional Tutor for the past 5 years; all subjects all grades. I have a BS from Florida International University and MS from Nova University (all coursework completed earning all A's). Having success in learning has as much to do with attitude as it does understanding and retention. This is the ultimate goal not only for the student, but the Tutor as well! I've worked with children for the past 20 years and know the importance of helping children develop a positive attitude towards learning! Chances are if a student is having difficulty achieving academic goals, then they probably don't enjoy that subject and naturally resist that, which they need most. There are ways to develop a child's self esteem so they want and even enjoy learning!

I enjoy working with students of all ages and ability levels. I meet them and determine their learning style as well as general abilities. Helping each student to discover his or her strengths is key to success in tutoring each client. Working with classroom teachers or counselors is also very important as communication should be a strong link in the ability to pinpoint areas of need. Being positive and encouraging is a hallmark of good and successful tutoring. My students enjoy our sessions and the older students recommend me to their friends as well. I worked in California for one year as a substitute teacher; I worked for three years in a Christian School first in a 3-4 combination, then a 5-6 combination, then a 4-5 combination. I then moved on to tutoring. My first year was with Sylvan Learning Center, then with a private tutoring group, One to One Learning Center in Santa Ro

I love teaching. I have worked in the field for over 40 years, my experience and knowledge are a benefit to every child I work with. At the core of my teaching philosophy are the concepts of Respect, Reality, and Responsibility. I am a child advocate and believe in making sure that every child receives the very best education he/she is entitled to. I have had a positive impact on the education of thousands of children through my teaching and my training of teachers. I started my career in NYC teaching at Rikers Island Prison.

Currently I am working in elementary school as an ESOL (English learners) tutor, recently received my letter of elegiblity to teach Biology 6-12 and ESOL. The high school that I attended was a vocational school focused on social work; therefore I had the opportunity to work with different community development programs, including teaching academics, arts & crafts, and directing recreational activities, etc. During my college education I had a semester of practice teaching biology and chemistry in public school, when I immigrated to the USA I privately taught Spanish. Now I am a certified substitute teacher for the Collier County School District. I also applied for the teacher certification and I am expecting the 'letter of eligibility", from the Florida Department of Education, in the near future.
