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.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have 10+ years experience helping ESL students prepare for the TOEFL and IELTS. Beyond exam preparation I also instill unique lessons and rules of the English language to help students better grasp the skills it takes to function in the daily demand academically and socially of being a non native speaker.

Online Music Lessons and Elementary Test Prep/Homework Help

I am currently a general music teacher at Samsula Academy, an elementary school in New Smyrna Beach, FL. I teach general music classes to students in grades K-5, as well as chorus and band. I received my Bachelor's degree from Marywood University in Scranton, PA and began my Master's studies at University of Central Florida. I currently aspire to study Irish traditional music in Ireland in the near future, and would continue to offer online tutoring services during those studies. At Samsula Academy, I offer private music lessons. I have mostly taught piano, but I also have taught trumpet, trombone, drums, flute, clarinet, saxophone, and violin. As a part of my undergraduate studies, I took methods courses in all band and orchestra instruments, so I am trained to teach most anything. I also have experience assisting in the elementary classrooms in reading, writing, and math, and preparing ... read more

I teach either one on one or in groups with the same subject, depending on how many students I get.
I have been taking classes at Daytona State for 1 semester, but like my credentials said, I have gotten awards through them from my Middle School, and high school. I have been tutoring since 2003. I have had multiple students at one time, so group sessions may be common in my teaching. I am in all advanced classes, and I can tutor in just about ever subjects.

I enjoy teaching children and helping them accomplish their goals. I believe that learning should be fun. I try to motivate each child by focusing on their strengths. I encourage each child to try their best. I believe that each child has the potential to do well in school and I feel that it is my job to help them succeed. I have helped several of my students improve their math and reading grades, dramatically! One of my students was failing math and he received a B on his last report card! The other student went from a fourth grade reading level to a seventh grade reading level in less than three months. I enjoy seeing the smiles on the children's faces when they get a good report card and it makes my job worthwhile.
I have taught kindergarten for several years. I have taught beginning readers in kindergarten, as well as reading comprehension to older students.I have homeschoole ... read more

As a Social Science teacher, I have worked with middle school and high school students. I currently teach reading at Daytona State College in the Adult Education Department. I have tutored students in the fields of social science, math, language arts, English, and job interview skills.
I love teaching and I am great at it. I believe that anyone can learn anything if the information is presented in a certain matter. I have used soccer to teach math, pool to teach geometery, current event to teach history. I like to use a hands-on approach to learning. Students need to see, hear, and write information to remember it long term. They also need to understand why and believe it is important information to learn.

After graduating with a degree in Elementary Education in 2001, I taught 2nd grade for one year. As a first year teacher, I completed the Teacher Induction Program, also known as the TIP Program. Additionally, I took and passed the following state exams: Professional Ed, Elementary Ed, and Middle Grades Mathematics. A desire to to attain specific math certification arose when I relocated to a different county and accepted a position teaching middle school math. I enjoyed this position very much, but resigned upon the birth of my son. Now, I believe a position utilizing my teaching experience with flexible, afternoon hours would be an ideal fit for me.
I am a teacher who realizes all students can improve if they receive motivation and instruction appropriate to their specific circumstance. I believe it is important to encourage individuality, creativity, critical thinking, and ... read more

I spent much time in college working with local teachers and tutoring their students. Upon graduation, I spent a year teaching 4th grade in a private school. In Florida, I continued teaching in a private setting, which was unique as it provided enriching education opportunities year-round. Here I developed my philosophy of education through instructing multi-age classrooms, developing and tailoring curriculum, and participating in entry-level administrative duties. In my recent Public Charter School experience, I instructed multi-grade and single-grade classes, continued tutoring, served on the REA Executive Board, functioned as the school-wide Testing Coordinator, and was an Assistant Principal Trainee.
My goal as a teacher is to meet the individual needs of students, teaching them “how” to learn, and guiding them towards their full potential as learners and citizens. I strive ... read more

I have worked as support staff for six years. This November I passed my state boards and received my 5 year professional teaching license in ESE K-12 education. This past April I passed my NCLB qualifications for Elementary Education K-6. I am currently pursuing the FLDOE Reading Endorsement and am 2 courses away from finishing. I am a high achiever, focused, and determined individual and expect the same excellence in my students.
I teach by example, by first modeling my expectations or skill. Then letting the students model the skill with me. Then, I allow the students time to practice the skill. I believe the proper term is scaffolding. I am a direct teacher there is no misunderstanding in the messages or instruction that I convey. I am also a good listener and understand when a student is struggling. I have effectively taught reading to students and have brought up their ORF s ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been a substitute teacher for ten years and a classroom teacher for 10 years, most of it spent in a third-grade classroom. I have also been a home instructor for 12 students and have spent many hours in students' homes. Both Florida and Ohio have been my home, one in the city and one in the rural section of Ohio, giving me experiences with many types of people and situations. The subbing experiences exposed me to all grade levels and students. The classroom experience taught me how to relate with parents and paperwork. I am an accomplished piano player and have a great appreciation of the arts and the importance of education for a better life. Reading is my great passion in life; I believe it is the key to everything.
I am very easy going. My style of teaching often makes those students that resent structure or pressure feel comfortable and relaxed enough to tackle ev ... read more

Since third grade I have always wanted to become a teacher. My third grade teacher inspired me to work hard and to never give up. I want to become that same inspiration in the lives of children. I believe that all children should be given an opportunity to learn. Children learn in many different ways. From my college experience and working in a classroom, I gained knowledge and strategies that would be beneficial for all students. Students should be given a chance to go above and beyond their potential when given appropriate learning experiences. I am a firm believer in becoming a life – long learner where learning never stops. I want to make a difference in the lives of children because they are our leaders of tomorrow.
In May 2009, I graduated from Florida Gulf Coast University with a BA in Elementary Education. I had a wonderful experience in college where I gained a phil ... read more
