Florida Writes Tutoring
Florida Writes is an assessment of writing proficiency which incorporates the assessment of higher order skills, since students are required to generate and develop the ideas that form the basis for their written responses. Looking for help? Select a tutor today. Beginning in 2010, each essay was scored by one rater. In previous years, two raters were used and the scores were averaged. Prior to 2010, a student could have received a half-point score, such as 4.5; whereas since 2010, no half-point scores are possible. Additionally, beginning in 2010, each student within the same grade level was required to write an essay using the same mode of writing (narrative, expository, or persuasive). Florida Writes is difficult for some students. Give your child an edge by selecting a tutor today on your terms, on your schedule, to suit your needs and within budget.

D Shane P - Denver, CO 80218 (0.9 mi) - Florida Writes Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I think learning should be fun. If a student doesn't enjoy what she is doing, she won't likely attain mastery of the discipline. Moreover, I think students learn best by doing as opposed to being told what to do (i.e. practice as opposed to lecture and explanation). This means that I leave a lot of space for students to try things without fear of making mistakes. Evaluation (especially critical evaluation) is an important element in the later learning process, but initially the priorities should be placed upon fun, experimentation, praise, and lots and lots of practice. As a graduate student, I worked as a tutor in the campus Writing Center. Later, just before graduating, I taught Writing, ESL and GED at the Denver County Jail. Since completing my degree, I became a Writing and Critical Thinking Professor for two separate Universities (Metro State College and Devry University), where I'v

I was interested in a teaching so I could assist children to reach their full potential. i have earned a BA in Elementary Education, which led me on to get my Ma.
This helped me gain an understanding of the many styles in which children learn. In addition I used the different styles of learning to complete papers to showcase in style.
As a retired teacher I have been doing tutoring in English for a Junior High Student. i have also tutored students in writing, reading and math. I love to teach and work with students. All children can learn to be life long student.
I have patient and consideration for where the child is at in any learning process. I believe in using what each child enjoys to bring them into learning. An example would be reading then with that book we move on to writing, spelling and creative thinking.
A good teacher can make a difference in a students life.

Paul S - Superior, CO 80027 (13.6 mi) - Florida Writes Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I have worked with students who are very bright, and just wanted to score a little higher on their boards, and students who had trouble passing their courses before they came to me for help. Whether I assist the student to get a "C" in their math course, or an 800 on the SAT math section, I have always enjoyed working with children. I know the material, and I have the patience to explain and make sure the student understands. As an ivy league graduate, I have attained a top-notch education and had access to the best professors in the world. Through my major I have studied mathematics, including Algebra, Geometry, Algebra II, Calculus, and Statistics. I have tutored high school students for several years in their homes, mostly for SAT prep and Algebra. My SAT I scores were 710M and 710V.
