Although I have never tutored professionally, I have had extensive experience tutoring friends and family in need. I am experienced in tutoring young children as well as classroom peers at my level. I have two bachelor degrees from UCF, Bio-medical Science and Psychology, and I feel confident in my ability to help anyone learn. I'm looking to earn extra money while completing my Master's degree at UCF.

I have tutored several people on line. I go to an advanced school of choice. I am a straight a student, and I am taking all honors and ap classes. I have tutored 5 different people in person. I prefer tutoring middle school and elementary school students since I am almost a sophmore in hs, but I have tutored a senior taking calculus before. I really enjoy tutoring and I hope I can find the right job.

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:)

I rely heavily on Socratic questioning, to strengthen the students own thinking; my goal is for him/her to not need me. I use symbol and concept imagery language to ensure the student is not simply repeating, but seeing and understanding. Learning, especially at the lower levels, need not be boring, and I enjoy teaching through games, and in counter culture environments such as reading on bean bags or under a tree. I am flexible and creative.
For five years I taught swimming lessons. While swimming isnotan academic subject, this experience taught me the essentials of teaching. I worked with a large range of ages, from six months to sixty years. While in college I was a tutor/editor in the writing center all three years. Upon graduation I took two part time jobs tutoring English at elementary and secondary levels, at Knowledge Points of Tampa Bay and Lindamood- Bell learning process ... read more

I love kids and I'm definitely looking forward to the time when I will have some of my own. I firmly believe in the value of education and hope to help convey that to our youth. I am an extremely understanding, patient, positive, and honest person. I am always willing to help someone in need, especially children, and I would love to have the opportunity to help educate our next generation. I know that for many children, one-on-one tutoring sessions can be more constructive than a classroom full of noisy distractions. Any child can become as successful as they want with help and encouragement in the right areas. I am determined to provide that help and encouragement to our students.
I have attended private schools for my entire educational career except for the last few months of high school. I was raised to believe that education is one of the most important things one can a ... read more

I am a strong believer than learning should be fun. I enjoy working with children and work to serve as a mentor and role-model for them. I try to discover how the student learns the best and tailor tutoring sessions to the their needs. I strive to make the session fun by giving the student information in ways they are familiar with or can understand, i.e., using sports, music or other interests as examples. The student's success is the most important thing.
I hold 4 college degrees through the Masters level. I am currently working on my doctorate degree. I have taken math courses through Calculus and have successfully tutored school-age students through Algebra. I also have experience in teach Biology, Chemistry & Human Anatomy. I worked as a Lab Assistance at Brevard Community College.

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.

Very hands on type of person. I am the type of person that needs visual reminders to get my work done. I know that everyone learns in different capacities so I try to incorporate that into my teaching style. I work on identifying the students learning style and then we go from there.
I am currently working at Challenger 7 Elementary School as the only Guidance Counselor. I have created a study group club with students that need study skills, organizational skills or assistance getting their work done! I have been employed as a substitute teacher and mental health counselor in the past. I enjoy working with students because a lot of their stress is due to frustration of not knowing a concept. If you work with the students on their frustration you begin to see improvement in their grades!

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a great believer in Learning Styles instruction and try to approach each student with the understanding that students learn in so many different ways there is no "right" approach to instruction. I try to maintain an "approachable" manner because I know that stress interferes with learning. I also have worked with a very diverse student body so I am very comfortable instructing students for whom English is not their first language.
During my tenure as a Title 1 Reading Instructor I served students with reading difficulties. I was instrumental in developing curriculum which aligned with the Massachusetts Frameworks. In addition to my Mater's Degree, I kept my teaching practice current by enrolling in the prestigious New Hampshire Writing Program and in the LINKS Reading and Writing Across the Curriculum Program. Since my retirement in 2006, I have served as a tutor in the Middl ... read more

I approach each day with enthusiasm because I believe it's contagious. My greatest strength lies in the fact that I am a good communicator and I am always looking to develop myself as an instructor. In the first few weeks, whether it's with one student or 30 students I like to develop a partnership or team with them. An example of this is when we discuss, and agree upon the classroom rules. It gives the student a sense of responsibility and accountability. Depending on the age group I think it's important to establish and develop organizational skills so that they can be set up for success.
I have been teaching for 5 years in a private school. It was a great introduction for me in so many ways. Not only did I experience teaching large classrooms but also smaller ones. I also learned a great deal from my colleagues and I'm always looking to improve myself. I taught Math, Scienc ... read more

I am proficient in finding new and different ways of presenting and explaining information in a way that is customized for the student's particular needs of understanding and comprehension. Each student has a different strength in learning and I enjoy finding what works best for that student and seeing their self-esteem boosted as a result of their success. I am compassionate in working with youth, especially those who need extra guidance and enrichment. Every child needs the kind of support that says “I believe in you! Keep on going! I see your effort!” Encouragement means acknowledging progress—not just rewarding achievement. It's this positive attitude and encouragement that makes the biggest difference in the life of a child.
