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.

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...

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 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.
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.

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.

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 Middlesex Community College Writing and Reading Center.
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 stud ... read more

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, Science, Social Studies, Language Arts and Life Skills. In preparing my lessons I utilized media and technology as well as developed learning centers in the classroom to make it exciting for my students. I also incorporated theatre/drama into specific lessons to motivate the child and keep them interested. My goal was to make the best learning environment each and every day.
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, w ... read more

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.
