ASVAB Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Clearwater, FL

I use the material that the student is familiar with to enhance the students understanding of the principles and processes that are being emphasized. I bring supplemental material for the subject area and use it as needed. Primarily, the student works problems or exercises that are required in front of me. The student verbalizes the steps and thinking processes about the subject so that I can correct fundamentals and errors in logic. I have tutored math, business and science courses for high school students and adults for the last 20 years. I have tutored for standardized tests (ASVAB, FCAT, PSAT, SAT, ACT, etc) for the last 15 years - saving parents many thousands of dollars in tuition fees. I have also assisted students with homework help, time management and study skills.

I have been a full-time tutor since 2009, and have worked with almost 500 students! I specialize in making concepts clear and meaningful by adapting my tutoring to each student's individual learning style and experiences. I also use many hands-on materials and provide concise notes pages to give students the tools to be able remember and apply the material we have worked on. I tutor in my home, in Palm Harbor (off Tampa Rd., near Belcher), and have converted the front part of my home into a tutoring studio, where I provide a quiet, distraction-free, positive learning environment with many hands-on materials and other resources.

Consistently helped raise scores in the AFQT (Language and Mathematics); can also provide strategies for vocational portions of the test. After attending (and teaching in) a graduate program in American/British Literature and Language at L.S.U., I realized that my true calling was teaching. I began teaching English, Journalism, S.A.T. Prep., Latin, and other subjects in Springfield, MA in 2003 in an alternative, urban high school. I taught (and tutored after school) until I moved to Florida in 2009, when my spouse began graduate studies at U.S.F. Since then, I have continued to tutor a wide range of students in subjects ranging from high school Latin, 5th grade Math, college English, S.A.T. and G.E.D. Preparation, and graduate level writing, and I have extensive training and experience with students who struggle with dyslexia, ADD/ADHD and ESL issues, as well as with children diagnose

I have three years teaching experience, mainly with disadvantaged populations, and five years tutoring experience. My rigorous teaching experience gives me the advantage of being able to work with any type of student with patience and courtesy. I coached volleyball at the Junior Olympic level for five years, working with girls from 12-18. When they had trouble in school, I tutored them before practice in a wide variety of subjects. The students told me they were appreciative of my ability to explain concepts and my unwavering dedication to achieving the goals set out for us. My teaching style is one of patience and encouragement. Not every student learns at the same pace. It is important to me to analyze the student's style of learning and try to comprehend where they might be having trouble understanding the concept or problem. For example, if the student has trouble with spellin

Having a love of knowledge and learning, I have always been interested in teaching. I tutored other students both officially and unofficially from grade school through college level. Just last year I spent most of the year instructing students in various computer-related subjects. I have always been proficient in Math and Sciences, as well as good knowledge of history, social studies, and all other general subjects. I enjoy seeing anyone's eyes light up when they learn something new. Everyone has the capacity to learn, and I reflect that by tailoring my teaching style to each individual. In a classroom setting, I am patient and frequently ask questions and wait for students to ask their questions. While the students are working on their exercises, I will answer any questions. I try to get the student to work through the problem him- or herself rather than giving the answer straight-out.

During all of my years of high school and college, I was very motivated and always strive to do my best. I graduated from Eastern Michigan University with a bachelors degree in Elementary Education where my major is Math and minor is Science. Being an Elementary Education graduate, I have experience in all different academic areas, as well as experience in effective teaching methods and strategies. Also, I really enjoy Math and Science and have knowledge in many areas of those two subjects. After my student teaching, I was a substitute teacher for grades K-12 for about a year before I moved to Florida. Teaching is one of my biggest passions. My student teaching experience in a second grade classroom was the most memorable experience I had during my years in college. I believe that all children have different ways of learning and I feel that I can meet the needs of every child. Since all

I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am determined to assist your child in obtaining academic success in any way possible. I am understanding, outgoing and kind. I want all children to succeed and I am willing to find any way possible to help them do such a thing.

My career in teaching and counseling has covered several regions of the USA and international work in two foreign countries. Besides teaching in a classroom setting, I have enjoyed tutoring experiences in writing labs at the college level and extensive tutoring situations with foreign nationals, elementary through high school age. My expertise in Language Arts, my personal writing, my travel journals – all add to my ability and enjoyment in teaching others the joys of reading and writing. I am very comfortable with math, science, and history at the elementary and middle school levels. My experience with college and career counseling at the high school level would be valuable to high school students. Most rewarding for a teacher is seeing the difference she makes in her students’ lives. When I began teaching to smaller groups and individual students, I realized how dynamic personal att

I look at each student as an individual with specific learning styles that they respond best to. My goal is to identify the learning style or styles of your student and then apply my creative mind to finding ways to present information. Positive reinforcement has given me the best success with students through the years. I believe there are no stupid questions and assess continually until I know that a concept has been grasped. Celebrations of milestones and victories are a large part of what I do as I believe self-esteem and failure can be the biggest obstacle a student must overcome. As a graduate of Humboldt State University with a BA and a 2 year post-graduate certificate to teach, I have been led through an array of opportunities over 28 years. I have dealt with special needs children, teens, preschoolers, elementary children and taught any subject placed in front of me. In ad

I believe knowledge is the key to success and without that key the future will never be unlocked. My goal is to pass that key onto the next generation as it was passed onto me. I'm humble; understanding, firm, encouraging and I believe in learning through “trial and error.” My style is to guide students by providing them the key fundamentals and allowing them to blossom to surpass their full potential. Success only comes before work in the dictionary. I'm a recent graduate with my BA in History with a Minor in Political Science and mentored students in before/after school programs for the past six years. Throughout my studies I have acquired a ubiquitous amount of knowledge in how vital education and structure is to every culture. Furthermore, I have learned critical thinking, grammatical, and public speaking skills through writing and presenting numerous independent research projects.
