More About This Tutor...

I truly enjoy working with students of all ages. It doesn't matter what they don't know because I believe anyone can be taught anything, at least as long as you have the right teacher and materials at your disposal. I believe students are like little sponges. They're taking in everything around them. Obviously, if you fill their heads with garbage, they will learn garbage. However, if you fill their heads with quality information, you explain it in a way that they understand, and you make it fun for them to learn, then they will learn everything you're trying to teach. There are thousands of educators, but only a few real teachers who can get a message across in such a way that the student doesn't just do the work, they UNDERSTAND what they're doing and why. As far as I'm concerned, if a student doesn't learn something, it's not because he didn't try. It's because I failed to teach him i ... read more

My comments on tutoring Florida Writes : I grew up in Florida, so I am familiar with the content.

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 believe I have a good mental connection with children. Teaching Math is not just about solving problems, using specific methods, equations & formulas that the student has to memorize, and then will forget after a couple days. It's about understanding the problems, it's about knowing where the problem is, and how to solve it using basic Math knowledge and some axioms, step by step, even reinventing the answer, if possible. Teaching Spanish is a lot different, its more methodical, I use some mnemonic "tricks" for the kids & adults to remember the important words & translations.
My best skill is Math, I have always been proficient at it. As an Engineer, I have had the opportunity to learn more and take advantage of this skill, and I want to share it, I love teaching. I am also a member of MENSA. I have been tutoring children and adults since 1999, teaching Math, Physics & Spanish. ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I left the hospitality industry after 10 years to pursue teaching so that could use my gift of patience and determination to mold young minds and help them learn. I quickly became a long term substitute and become attached several to children with learning disabilities. After working on specific studying skills, and social skills with family where possible, I was able to increase standardized testing score as much as 33% in several students. As a substitute teacher, I have worked and taught with all ages of students from 5-13 in all academic areas for extended periods of time since 2007.
I believe that very child is unique. I teach with the ideal that every child deserves to be treated with respect and developed to their highest potential, academically, physically and emotionally.

More About This Tutor...

Every child deserves to be educated. I love making a difference in a child's life! And I thoroughly enjoy being a teacher!
I have, for the most part of my adult life, been involved with teaching children in one way or another. I have been a baseball, basketball and soccer coach. I have always wanted to tutor children because I truly enjoy watching a child's eye's light up, when they have finally grasped a concept they thought was impossible for them to understand. I currently teach at a charter school in Davenport. As in all my other teaching experiences, I believe it is important for the child to feel comfortable learning new things, and I believe that I have the necessary abilities to relate to the children I am working with.

More About This Tutor...

Immediately after I graduated with a double-major BA in Political Science and History, I began teaching and tutoring at a boarding school in the Northwest corner of Connecticut. I taught Early American history, in addition to an English course; I have tutored on a wide range of subjects from Algebra to Spanish, Earth Science to literature. I felt it was always important for my students to not only gain a solid understanding of the course material, but also increase their self-confidence. Tutoring was a wonderful medium to work with students on an individual basis to ensure that both their academic and personal needs were being met. In addition, it gave the students a great opportunity to increase their abilities to self-advocate.
In an evaluation after an observation of one of my history classes, a colleague of mine quoted that "it was evident from the beginning that the studen ... read more

Every child is different, but one thing all children need is some patience and motivation that they can do it. I am easy going and have great qualities to be there for children like I am for my own. I love to help children and anyone who needs help.
I have a degree in Criminal Justice. I have always been a good student. I have never directly taught children, but I have 2 kids who I help everyday with their homework and they are in junior high and are in all advanced classes. Since I feel that I am a great motivator and know how to study for certain things, I show my kids the encouragement they need and now I feel I can offer this to other kids as well. I have great grammer skills and can help with studying as well.

I'm currently attending American Military University, with less than a year to graduate with a bachelor degree in Public Health, which allows me to have a better understanding in health science related subjects. I have learned extensive grammatical skills due to writing research papers. In addition I have experience in teaching, coaching and mentoring soldiers in the United States Army as a squad leader.
Each child learns in different ways, and as a Tudor/teacher it is my responsibility to discover the method of teaching that matches a child’s way of learning. I am patient, understanding and provide a constructive approach to learning. All children have the potential of learning; some simply require a different method and approach to grasp the information and it is my duty to provide such approach.

During my four years of undergraduate studies, I have spent three years tutoring in the subject area of English. While maintaining a full course load and working full time, I have managed to tutor over 107 students during this period. The majority of the material covered included essay writing at a college level, (scholarship essays, admissions essays, formation of a thesis paper, etc.). After graduating with a BA in English, I went on to pursue a career in teaching. Over the last year, I have had the opportunity to teach at both a middle school and a high school level. This has given me the experience necessary to tutor a younger age group, and has helped me learn new ways to assist students in understanding the material. Currently as a 10th grade teacher, I volunteer both my lunch and planning period to tutor students for the FCAT, assist them with essay writing, grammar and usage, as ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As an undergraduate at Temple University, I developed a love of the written word, in both its simple meaning and its esoteric meaning. I have a passion for interpreting both poetry and prose, as well as helping students learn new vocabulary. As a parent, I have fostered my love of reading with my children which has promoted their learning in other areas as well. I believe that with reading comprehension comes more opportunity to learn in subject areas beyond English.
I enjoy working with students and encouraging them to do their best. I am patient and understanding, and will work with your child's strengths in order to help them overcome their weaknesses. I enjoy all ages of students, as I believe that one should never stop learning. Therefore, I am willing to work with children of all ages and adult learners as well.
