PSAT Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Christmas, FL

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:)

I'm currently a senior attending Winter Park High School. I have a slew of education and extracurricular related accolades, and have been commended highly for my skills in writing (both creative and professional). My transcript has a long history of Advanced Placement courses and my standardized exam scores are impressive to say the least least (30 ACT, 1800 SAT, multiple AP Exam credits). I actually don't have much experience as a tutor beyond helping classmates study, however throughout my experience in high school I've experimented with and adopted many avant-garde and unorthodox studying techniques and thought processes that have served gratuitously to my benefit, and I'm positive will serve yours as well.

I have always approached a teaching lesson as a learning opportunity. Learning is a fundamental skill. If you don't have your basic fundamentals, your student will have difficulty advancing. So, I always start with basic fundamentals such as; note taking, study skills, and comprehension! All sciences demand the ability to link concepts together. Ex. cells make up tissues, tissues make up organs, organs make up organ systems,etc.....! By understanding the make-up of cellular structures and relating that to tissue functions the students can fully understand a subject. This proves true with all subjects. By impowering the student with good base fundamentals, my students find it easier to link concepts together. I obtained a B.S. in Biology, with a concentration in aquatic science, from Wittenberg University in 2006. During my undergraduate studies, I tutored elementary students in math

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. 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.

I am currently a general music teacher at Samsula Academy, an elementary school in New Smyrna Beach, FL. I teach general music classes to students in grades K-5, as well as chorus and band. I received my Bachelor's degree from Marywood University in Scranton, PA and began my Master's studies at University of Central Florida. I currently aspire to study Irish traditional music in Ireland in the near future, and would continue to offer online tutoring services during those studies. At Samsula Academy, I offer private music lessons. I have mostly taught piano, but I also have taught trumpet, trombone, drums, flute, clarinet, saxophone, and violin. As a part of my undergraduate studies, I took methods courses in all band and orchestra instruments, so I am trained to teach most anything. I also have experience assisting in the elementary classrooms in reading, writing, and math, and preparing

I have experience with all age groups and types of children. I volunteer at a school for children with learning/emotional disabilities, and I have also worked with troubled at-risk students through my time doing SES tutoring. These particular experiences, as well as others, have clearly demonstrated that all children are capable of learning, but it is imperative that certain children just have a little extra time and help. I believe tutoring is essential for this reason, because the tutor gets the chance to work a bit more closely with students, so that it is slightly easier to learn their style and capabilities. On my end, I offer this attention to my students and keep detailed info about all of their setbacks, successes, learning styles etc. This, paired with the appropriate instruction based on individuals instead of groups, is what propels me forward. In addition, I am consistent, pa

As a recent college graduate from the University of Central Florida I know what it takes to face a difficult situation and make the best of it. My first two years at a local community college were spent working 40+ hours a week so I could save up and have the opportunity to move away and further my education. During my time at UCF I was given the opportunity to become an Avid tutor at a local Middle School. My experiences learned as an avid tutor were invaluable and helped shaped what I want to do with the rest of my life: teach. As an avid tutor I was required to follow the avid tutoring format. Before I joined the program I was unaware of what exactly this entailed. The avid program suggests groups of 5-7 students gather around a table with the avid tutor being placed at the head of the table. My job is not to tutor, but to rather facilitate the learning as students take turns proposi

As a conscientious and dynamic teacher with 7 years of experience, I have had a great deal of training in a variety of teaching styles and methods for reading, writing, and math. As an elementary and middle school teacher, I have had experience tutoring and teaching children of all ages. I have had extensive training and experience in teaching students how to write and in remedial reading. During the last ten years I have tutored students in reading, writing, and math; as well as helped students with organizational and study skills. I am a patient and encouraging teacher and believe that all children can learn. I feel it is important to meet children where they are at and grow them to reach their full potential. Since all students learn differently, I believe it is important to be flexible in my teaching methods. If a student is not understanding a concept, it is my job to find new

My personal philosophy about education blends guided practice, academic rigor, and personal discipline with student autonomy, creativity, and exploration. I not only teach students how to complete a task but also how to become self-assessing so they can have success long after the tutoring session is over. I relate well to students of all ages and have the patience to explain, illustrate, or demonstrate a concept in multiple ways until I find the one the student understands. It is my goal to reach each student where she is and guide her to the desired level using the teaching styles that meet her individual needs. I taught High School English 3 and 4 for two years at Evans High School. Previously, I have tutored peers and students in grades 6-college level in subjects such as algebra, physics, writing, and reading for the FCAT. I am especially skilled in teaching writing and in helping s

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. 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.

In my classroom I have one rule, Respect. I start the class with a warmup and then either choose a student or have one volunteer to write the answer on the board. I take homework questions and then go over the new material. After giving classwork and new homework, I allow and encourage the students to work together to complete the classwork/homework. I go around the room and answer questions they might have. Then we go over some of the assigned problems at the end of the class. I also play games, give puzzles and have them do foldables and crafts of that nature. I love to teach. I have tutored, unofficially, since I was in middle school. Officially I have tutored for a state university, a lerning center, and on my own for 5 years. I have a BS in Math Education and have received awards for my excellent math background. I graduated from Bowie State University in 2003 and taught for

I believe practical examples and practical knowledge will help the students to get their nearest theories, I am available to help your child find academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providing a constructivist approach to learning. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. As I am an Electrical and Electronics Engineer, i have experience in the mathematics and science. In addition, I have learned extensive grammatical skills due to writing research papers and laboratory reports, along with essays in many various areas of study.

During my undergraduate studies at the Wilkes Honors College at Florida Atlantic University, I have gained a passion for learning about math and the social sciences. I have earned a bachelor degree in Liberal Arts and Sciences with a concentration in Environmental Studies. I have taken math courses ranging from College Algebra to Calculus II to Math for Liberal Arts. I have used statistical sampling for my undergraduate research thesis. In addition, I have learned to hone my research and literary skills through the many articles, books I have read and written papers that have been assigned. I am comfortable tutoring math, biology, and economics as well as a few other areas in the social and biological sciences. Through working for youth camps and volunteering I have gained a passion for teaching and encouraging youth to develop themselves into successful leaders, and it is something
