I believe that implementing the right tools, along with clearly stating what the student needs to learn, along with discussion, will ensure student success.Using multisensory resources, creatively using the newly formed knowledge, along with pre-testing will foster memory and recall. The experience I have gained while studying Education and Psychology, along with administrating exams for Wonderlic Scholoastic Testing and tutoring has enabled me to learn through understanding, hard work and dedication. I have learned through extensive courses in Psychology on how we learn, education courses that break learning down, and working with children and adolescence for over ten years with tutoring and patience, that with the proper tools and guidance, anything can be achieved.

Tutoring is not my part-time job, it is a full time endeavor. I tutor in many subjects including Elementary, Middle and High School curriculums. I tutor all ages. By working with my students, their parents and teachers, we formulate a plan and goals for our sessions. Sometimes I am a tutor for a test, or a coach for a project or a study skills adviser. I have experience working with students with ADHD and those with specific learning issues and IEP's.

I believe that all students can and will achieve academic success given appropriate instruction; i.e., instruction that is differentiated according to students' specific needs, learning styles, interests, and personal goals. As a classroom teacher and as a personal tutor, I have seen almost miraculous results in a relatively short period of time, both in terms of academic achievement and student confidence. Passion and enthusiasm for learning is contagious, and I am a carrier. For a dedicated instructor, nothing is more satisfying than watching a student "catch" the learning bug. After attending (and teaching in) a graduate program in American/British Literature and Language at L.S.U., I realized that my true calling was teaching. I began teaching English, Journalism, S.A.T. Prep., Latin, and other subjects in Springfield, MA in 2003 in an alternative, urban high school. I taught

As a contented student at Full Sail University, I am pursuing a Master's in Fine Arts in Creative Writing. I volunteer for Graduate Honors research in Latino/a Caribbean Studies at the University of South Florida, and serve as a freelance consultant for an aspiring media entertainment company. In addition, my Bachelor’s Degree in Literary Studies, Associates Degree in Education, and professionally polished communication skills are invaluable as a tutor. I have learned to be disciplined and skilled in the acquisition of critical thinking, written communication, analysis, logic and reasoning. To be literate and articulate in various languages is not only handy, but eases the transition of language barriers which allows me to continually acquire polished skills in all forms of expression. Possessing strong academic qualifications and leadership give me the advantage in helping others. I off

Qualified in this subject by WyzAnt. In my teaching, I make every effort to engage the attention of my students. While covering the subject at hand, I bring into my lessons references to a spectrum of other subjects when relevant such as historical context, cultural elements, literary allusions, modern and historical implications and facts and trivia relating to the subject which I believe will not only be of interest to the student but will also provide a more rounded appreciation of the benefits of a wide ranging education. For the greater part of my life I have been involved in various facets of education. I have acted as substitute teacher at the middle and high school levels for a total of 10 years, 8 of which were spent at 12 schools in Vermont and 2 at 10 schools in Hernando County FL. I held the position of Senior ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages) with a highly re

Each student is an individual and they give cues to the teacher on how to best reach them. I use a variety of tools when I tutor. I have created a cookbook with a student to help teach spelling, dictionary skills and math. I created a puzzle book with another to promote reading, logic, as well as math and science skills. With non-native English speakers, I often use music. I believe in patience and praise. Each person learns in a different way. While earning my bachelor's degree, I tutored reading and language arts in grades 2-5. I also worked at the speech lab at my alma mater. For students who had phobias about public speaking, I worked on helping them overcome fears and succeed in composing and presenting a speech. I also did extra course work in linguistics, which prepared me to tutor speakers of other languages as they learned English. I have tutored foreign speakers from

With a Bachelors of Science degree in Biology, minor in Mathematics and pursuing M.A.T Mathematics, I have taught foundational to advanced levels of mathematics, chemistry and biology. In addition I have developed proven strategies to succeed and improve PSAT, SAT, ACT, GMAT, NET, CRCT, EOCT, GRE, COMPASS, and GED Scores. My strengths include over 5 years of experience of breaking down tougher concepts into smaller, easy-to-understand concepts, connecting concepts to real life, inspiring a love for learning, and exploring new ways of teaching. I like to lay a strong foundation with rudimentary concepts, and make learning fun for all grades, ages and backgrounds. Every child has a unique learning style; some learn by reading out a loud, some learn better through visual representations, but many have a mixed learning style. My teaching style depends on my students’ learning style. I us

I enjoy tutoring children of all ages. I have nephews whom I tutor that are five and six, and have during the last eight years tutored many children in middle, high school and college. Because I have been very succesful myself in academics, I am often able to show children the simplest path to becoming successful - whether it is a trick to solving algebra problems or creating an outline to make an essay seem like an easily surmountable task. I believe there are very few children who do not want to excel in school and even fewer that do not have the ability to do so. I hope that I can help my students excel in whatever subject area they choose, and in doing so, improve their self-esteem. During the last eight years I have tutored students in all subjects I have taken - math, physics, chemistry, biology, etc. I am especially fluent in the sciences as a result of having attended MIT.

I am a firm believer in starting out and "listening critically" to a child's specific needs. Tuturing gives one an opportunity to focus on your student's weakness and devise strategies as to how best to assist in strengthening those areas. Children love attention and if given the motivation, will shine in due time. My goal is to listen, be collaborative with both the children as well as the parents in order to provide the best instruction and assistance possible. I am easy to get along with and have no difficulty in getting children/students alike to open up. I look forward to being of service. I am truly passionate about teaching and instruction of any kind. Born in Manchester, England, I have taught English, French and Math to students in England, France and the United States respectively during summer school as well as part of a National Service program. I have also mentored and

My experience has been varied. I taught many learning impaired as well as advanced and average high school and middle school students from 5th to 12th grades. I also have travelled internationally (mostly in the summers, of course)a great deal, which has added greatly to my experiences and ability to communicate. I have taugh in small classes or tutored in English, Literature, some math, humanities, history and study skills. I also taught age 5 through 14 in London, England. Here I implemented small classes of writing, study skills, homework support, history and humanities, as well as strictly tutorial. Teaching with animation to keep the kids interested and encouraging their participation with Theater techniques and improvisation has helped to keep them interested in learning. I do so like to teach with positivity, listening, understanding but also limit-setting and consistency. I like

I love working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am determined to assist your child in obtaining academic success in any way possible. I am understanding, outgoing and kind. I want all children to succeed and I am willing to find any way possible to help them do such a thing. As a recent graduate, I was very driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I am a strong promoter of education advocacy and I truly feel "no child should be left behind". I have earned my Bachelor's degree in Biology/Pre-Med with a minor in chemistry which has enabled me to gain a vast understanding of various types of science.

Upon completing my degree in Marketing at Notre Dame and after internships in the banking and advertising agencies, I knew the corporate world was not for me. I took a position in the development office of a private high school in Philadelphia. Working there for three years, I was passionate about raising money for education, but realized I would prefer to be in a classroom rather than an administrative office. I moved to a small town in New Jersey, where I found a job teaching Math to 5th-8th graders. Teaching middle school was a challenge I embraced. My goal was to build the students’ confidence and help them enjoy math. I spent two wonderful years there, learning much in the process myself. In the fall of 2007, my husband was transferred to the Coast Guard Station in Clearwater, FL. In January, 2008 I began a new teaching job at Academy Prep in Tampa- again teaching Math, incl
