Praxis Exam Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Crescent City, FL

To me teaching is about solving puzzles. Each student needs different devices or strategies to learn at their full potential. This is why I believe in experimenting with how class or a learning session is conducted. I pride myself on my courage to try something new and original in order to reach a student, even if it means failing; but from that failure I still learn. I feel the most important thing to teaching is to make a connection with the individual person - not just the student. I recently completed my education to be a communication and English educator at the University of Minnesota - Duluth. Through the program I spent a year as an apprentice at a middle school and high school. At these locations I not only observed, but also conducted the classroom a day each week. Also at this time I spent a day tutoring a low functioning reader one-on-one for the entire semester. The

I am a teacher/instructor by nature. I do not believe there is but one method to solve any problem. I make every attempt to relate the use and application of math to the students’ real world environments and situations. I believe in the demonstration/performance method of instruction: explanation, demonstration, student performance and evaluation. My students are very aware that my goal is their success. The following is an extraction from a letter written on my behalf by a colleague: “I frequently teach students who have taken prerequisite math courses from Marc, and those students are always very well prepared and do very well. I respect his ability to adapt, innovate and succeed in the classroom. Beyond the classroom, Marc holds informal study sessions with students, generously giving his time to help students succeed. Marc genuinely enjoys teaching, cares about student su

I have been teaching for seven years-mostly math and some language arts. The math teaching included geometry, algebra 1, algebra 2, basic high school math and middle school math. One year my students had the highest improvement in standardized math test scores in the district, for the lower level students. My student test scores have always been high so I retained the scores. I tutored psychology for two years in college for a Buffalo State College program called SEEK, and received many compliments from the students. In Rutherford County, TN, I worked with medically homebound students and found I was very good working with the disabled students. I am also fluent in the Spanish language. I like to have the students actively participating in the lessons. They enjoy working out the lesson examples and problems on the media that is used so all of the class can see the successes and whe

All students can gain great benefits from participating in rigorous coursework and being encouraged to think critically. I am a firm believer in using differentiation techniques to allow students, regardless of level, to access and engage with the subject matter in a meaningful way. Students I work with are provided with a variety of tools and techniques to use as they create meaning, and fit that new learning into their own schema. I am patient and kind with students I teach, without sacrificing high expectations to do so. I strive to create an environment where learning is valued, students are respected, and the joys of learning are discovered. Reading, writing, and speaking are essential skills that students of all levels would be well advised to hone and perfect. Throughout my teaching experiences, I have striven to assist both teachers and students to use words thoughtfully to
