Individual & Group Tutoring. Project-Based Enrichment

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:)

A Little Bit About Me...

No matter what field I have worked in over the years, I have always made teaching a component of what I do. I love teaching children. It is a challenge to engage them in the process. I adapt my style to each child's needs and personality. Although I set boundaries, I am not comfortable with being a stern taskmaster. I always try to engage the child by listening to his or her concerns and anxiety. I find that once the student feels that you are interested in him or her as an individual, they are much more responsive to the efforts we can make together to help them with their school work.

More About This Tutor...

I subscribe to a comprehensive overview initially to provide a basic structural outline of course content and criteria for learning goals. Students can then "fill in" this overview outline as new content is introduced, with open discussion and query to gain additional insights. Daily affirmation of progress with focused discussion addressing areas of needing improvement to keep engaged with consistent monitoring. Assessments should be brief with subsequent feedback soon after testing. Keeping within the overview outline while working each course section will serve to assist in learning comprehension and retention while developing a long term knowledge of the overall course curriculum.

A Little Bit About Me...

As an ESE Instructional Assistant at McNair Magnet School I provide one-on-one assistance to students. I also hold a tutoring position there where I assist ESOL students in an after school program. I received a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from UCF where my internship led to my certification in Applied Behavior Analysis. My training as a behavior analyst has provided me with excellent skills for working with individuals with a number of developmental disabilities from ADHD to Autism spectrum. As a private tutor for the last 6 years I have covered all subject areas of academia. I have recently been accepted into UCF’s Master of Teaching Social Science Program where I will pursue an advanced degree in Education.

I love teaching because it is one of the most optimistic and proactive ways to change the world for the better that I can think of. I know my students leave our lessons with something more than they came in with and that their lives will be better for it. I am extremely patient, understanding, and kind. My ultimate goal is the success of the student in reaching his or her education destination.
Education and continued learning have always been an important part of my life and something I strive to share with future generations. I have two Bachelor of Science degrees, one in Biological Science and the other in Dietetics. While science and math are among my favorite subjects, I also enjoy teaching English and recently had the pleasure of teaching this subject abroad. Over the course of the last fifteen years I have had the opportunity to tutor students in English, mathematics, and ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy working with diverse groups of students. My beliefs of teaching are to listen, encourage learning, and respect an individual’s efforts. In addition, with careful observation of human behavior patterns, I can develop strategies that address collaboration amongst various people groups and cultures within a classroom setting. This is key to communicating effectively with students and will promote success in learning. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given an opportunity to communicate their learning experiences with the instructor and peers. I believe that with assessment preparation and giving motivational feedback to students, they can reach attainable goals.

More About This Tutor...

First and foremost, I am passionate about education. I believe education is key to success for any person, young or old, as well as society as a whole. Before starting into my bachelor degree in Social Science Education at UCF, which I will finish in approx. one year, I worked at a Tutor Time in Phoenix, AZ. I worked with babies to 12 yr olds. I also volunteered at a live-in rehab center, which took in habituates and ex-cons. This year I have volunteered on a weekly basis at a local high school and elementary school, tutoring students in reading, writing, art, social studies, and economics.
My teaching style comes from much of who I am as a person. I am easy going and laid back. I enjoy having fun, but not at the cost of flagrant misbehavior. I believe children can and do make mistakes. It takes the proper coach to guide them in a direction of better choice making. As far as learni ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Due to my extensive background in languages & cultures, I have been able to address individual learning and studying needs quickly, effectively, and definitively. As a multicultural linguist in the field of education, I have been on the forefront of curriculum design and I have presented at five TESOL conferences. Furthermore, my deep-structural understanding of a language's grammar allows me to analyze linguistic needs and perspectives inductively.
Teaching and showing are synonymous and in some languages it is the same word. I am not an instructor. As a teacher & educator my principal aim is to clarify objectives and show the student (client) how s/he can reach her/his goals. I facilitate the process profesionally as well as wholeheartedly. From a personal perspective, I feel good about what I do ONLY when it is validated by the student's satisfaction.

I believe with the right guidance and role modeling any child can enjoy learning. Education is very important to me, I think that a good education can not only advance one’s career but also make life a more enjoyable experience. I am a hands-on practical type of teacher. There is always more than one way of learning a concept. I have taught many different learning styles and learned that when a student is engaged and participating in the lesson they get the most out of it. I believe that one on one or small group tutoring offers one of the best chances for a student to be interactive with the material and really grasp it.
I am a highly motivated professional that works well in many diverse situations. I have a Bachelors degree in Psychology from a highly rated private college. I have taught high school and middle school Integrated Science for three years. Before teaching in the ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I was raised in the Montessori teaching environment, so I am very involved with hands-on teaching methods, and relating subjects to real life experiences. I enjoy watching children grow and progress into self-motivated, independent individuals, who are self-confident in many areas. I believe all children no matter what age have the potential to do amazingly well in school and with their education depending on how much individual attention is placed on them, including constant positive reinforcement.
While I was in college I began working as a teachers assistant at a Montessori School, I soon started privately tutoring students after school at the same location. I am a very hard working, organized, and outgoing person. I tutored students in Math, English, History, Behavioral Sciences and also taught private dance lessons.

I believe tutoring is best done in small goups, ranging anywhere from four to twelve students per class. Due to the large descrepancy of abilities between students, I believe it is important to modify lesson plans over the course of class. I always emphasize hands-on learning and real life examples as essential when learning new concepts. It can not be stressed enough the importance of flexibility when preparing for any class.
During my time as an undergraduate student at New York University I tutored a wide range of subjects to students with varying abilities. My experience ranges from tutoring reading skills to elementary school children through the America Reads program, to teaching illiterate and non-English speaking adults basic math and literacy skills under Literacy Partners, Inc., and helped prepare high school students for the reading and math sections of the SAT throu ... read more

My teaching style varies with the needs of the learner. Having been trained to assess the primary modality of a learner (visual, oral/aural, kinesthetic or tactile), I can plan activities and approaches that will best use the student's strengths to overcome challenges. I think humor is very important in learning and teaching. I work well with students who are able but resistant to learning, and those who have a particular challenge that they will admit. Because I believe that everyone can learn something, and no one can learn everything, I focus on helping students win at learning. I try to teach students how to learn, as well as mastering content, so that they are prepared no matter what the content area might be.
I have been teaching children since I was a child myself, first in community settings, and then in church and later, in elementary and middle schools. I train teachers f ... read more

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.
