I am a man born to teach. The inner satisfaction of imparting new knowledge to someone else, especially of a subject I love, has been the force that drove me through teaching Spanish for 34 years. My writing and speaking skills are equally excellent in Spanish and English. My joy in sharing knowledge drew me to the degree of Media Specialist; helping others to find knowledge. Now retired, I sought out tutoring positions to continue to help others find joy in learning. My teaching style is one of great patience, understanding, and desire to help students individually. Tutoring provides the chance to be creative in finding the method that opens the door to learning that which is closed for a child. I am a quiet and laid back mentor who easily wins the confidence of a young person. I am persistent to a fault, until the student comprehends. I believe that practice is the key to learn

I have always been fascinated with language and how it is used. I dedicated myself to learning the details of the English language. I have extensive experience teaching all ages and all levels and students from all over the world from many varied cultures. I myself am a first generation American so I can relate to the difficulties of not only learning a foreign language but a foreign culture as well for the two cannot be separated from each other. I have been a language student, a language teacher and also a director of a language school. I also have a formal education and training in languages and teaching them. Also, I have a genuine interest in other cultures and languages as well. I believe that to be a great teacher you can never have just one style or method because we all assimilate knowledge in different ways. However, my teaching philosophy is to teach so students learn but

My work as a tutor has become quite systematic. First, I look to see what the children can do on their own. In this way, I learn both strengths and weaknesses and can begin working on problem areas immediately. With one-on-one tutoring or small group learning this is not difficult. If there are serious deficiencies in skill-level we go back to the basics. More often, there is a learning gap of one or more content areas and a mini-lesson will clarify any confusion. After the students learn what they missed, we practice using the same technique learned on a variety of new problems or questions. Since 2000 I have been heavily involved in tutoring various subjects. My first experience was through the Language Connection Tutoring Program at a local high school. The program began with the football team and ESL students seeking after-school tutoring in Math, Science, Reading and Languages. It e

I have consistently confirmed my ability to multi-task within a fast-paced environment and to identify and resolve problems of a wide assortment while displaying a good work ethic and attention to detail. My teaching style will thus be characterized as organized and disciplined. I believe in seriousness and dedication. However, I understand that we are all learning in different ways and each student must be approached on an individual basis. I am positive and have a strong interest in helping students achieve their goals. I received my Bachelor of Arts degree in Economics and Mathematics at a top liberal arts school, Kenyon College. I did work and research at Kenyon and in Romania. Throughout my academic career, I have developed my interpersonal and analytical skills by participating in intensive group projects and excelling in my curriculum.

I believe the keys to teaching any student, young or old, are patience and encouragement. I find that when I demonstrate a pleasant, usually fun, and encouraging environment for my students, they tend to thrive. There has not been a more fulfilling experience for me than to effectively teach a child something that they did not initially have the confidence to learn. My goal is to not only teach them the required material, but to also introduce a learning experience that positively impacts their self-perception. If they believe they can learn anything, they will ultimately thrive in other experiences that require self-confidence, patience, and leadership. The bottom line is that I love to teach, because very few experiences grant me this opportunity. During the course of my studies in Biomedical Engineering, I have gained extensive academic knowledge in Math, Biology, and Chemistry,

As a graduate of Curry College in 1970 with a BS degree, I was fortunate to be hired by the Boston Public School System. After teaching for three years, I began graduate school at Boston State College. The majority of courses were in special education, which proved to be useful in my career as a teacher. I have tutored students in most areas of education. I have thoroughly enjoyed teaching for the last 33 years. Although I am now retired, I still want to continue being an educator and I look forward to doing this through tutoring. I always enjoyed working with children in all areas of education. I have been tutoring children for over 10 years after my classroom duties ended. I have taught most subjects in grades 5-12. During the past 20 years, I have taught in the area of special needs. I am very organized, dependable, and relate well with children and parents. I look forward to being a

Since high school, I have been actively pursuing opportunities to teach individuals new skills. I started off in 1999 as a math tutor for an honor society and moved on to teach reading and vocabulary to children with learning disabilities and English to Spanish speakers by 2001. At the University of Florida, where I graduated cum laude in 2005 with a BS in psychology and BS in statistics, I continued my pursuit of teaching by giving lectures on psychological disorders and various statistical methods. During and following college, I worked with a company, Solutionex, developing programs to assist with everyday data entry tasks. I taught other workers at the company the computer skills they needed to run the programs via Microsoft Excel and Microsoft Word. My latest tutoring experiences have involved geometry, trigonometry, Algebra II, and calculus. Although I can teach any high school ski

I enjoy seeing the light bulb go on when students grasp a difficult concept. I provide students with a template for gathering information from word problems. This helps find out what the real question is and how to choose the right equation(s). This allows students to be comfortable solving problems with or without an instructor present. I have a bachelor of Science in mechanical Engineering. I have experience as a Physics teacher, test engineer, and Mechanical Engineer. I have obtained this experience with Broward County, Cordis a Johnson & Johnson Company, and Motorola.

As a Midwestern woman from Chicago, I grew up with a very strong work ethic. I put myself through college by working in the business world each summer and college breaks. I attended Illinois State University where I was taught how to be self-sufficient and how to really think. I am resourceful and know how to find information as well. But, most of all I am a good, concise writer. As words are all we have to communicate so I choose mine carefully. For the past year-and-a-half I have worked as a Broward County substitute teacher in a variety of schools. I enjoy the middle school age group a great deal. Children relate well to me. I am not a dictator and the work still gets done. Everyone has his/her own rate and style for learning. I want a child to feel comfortable around me and not nervous. As a teacher it is my job to find which method works for each child. Some children may pre
