I have tutored math, business and science courses for high school students and adults for the last 20 years. I have tutored for standardized tests (ASVAB, FCAT, PSAT, SAT, ACT, etc) for the last 15 years - saving parents many thousands of dollars in tuition fees. I have also assisted students with homework help, time management and study skills. I use the material that the student is familiar with to enhance the students understanding of the principles and processes that are being emphasized. I bring supplemental material for the subject area and use it as needed. Primarily, the student works problems or exercises that are required in front of me. The student verbalizes the steps and thinking processes about the subject so that I can correct fundamentals and errors in logic.

After 33 years of trial law, I decided to teach full time. I have taught various classes off and on since 1972. I have tutored students for the last two years, including 15 middle school english and math students this last year in Hernando County. I also helped these students with science, geography, and social sciences. I now live in Tampa. All children can learn if properly motivated. I use a modified socratic method of teaching, engaging the child in a dialogue about the subject matter. We explore together using books and the internet to find answers. All of my students improved in their school work in a dramatic fashion. Some saw their grades jump as much as 60%.

I have a great interest in accounting. My study has provided me with ample knowledge of accounting as well as sharpened my analytical and logical reasoning skills. I have had 2 years tutoring computer applications while in school and enjoyed it greatly. I believe the best way to learn is to teach and the best way to teach is to learn. As we alternate between these roles, we all grow together. I am well versed, patient and easy going. I think each individual has their own aptitude and tendency but if the teacher, with humor and practical experience, can encourage and challenge the student to think independently and bring the student to the next level, any subject can become interesting and useful to the student. Also, my goal is to bring education close to the real world, so the student, besides succeeding in school and make good grades, also has a solid practical background contrib

I believe one of the most vital components of teaching revolves around guiding the child to find a sense of accomplishment in their work. Learning can often be difficult and frustrating but even the smallest sense that they are getting it, picking up something really helps an individual find the motivation to stay focused and work hard. I find patience and encouragement are also very important. Everyone learns at their own pace and learns best through different mechanisms. My time as an undergraduate at Duke University sharpened my intellect to an incredible degree. At Duke, I obtained a BA in Public Policy, a minor in Economics and graduated Magna Cum Laude. The rigorous academic environment at Duke taught me vital study skills while pushing me to improve my writing abilities and problem solving skills. I was further fortunate enough at Duke to have the opportunity to serve as a Teachin

My career as an attorney has afforded me many opportunities to instruct people from various educational backgrounds on many complicated subjects that have affected their lives. I am extremely patient and model my instructional method to fit the cognitive mindset of the person I am teaching. Having taken bar examinations in three states, I can teach your child to take tests to the best of their ability, and to use the preparation methods to develop skills that will cross over into other subjects and other aspects of their lives. My methodology is to provide students with the personal guidance they need in order to get back on track to reach their goals. I have been a practicing attorney for 20 years and have recently relocated to FL, seeking a career in teaching. I am eligible for a FL teaching certificate in Physics for grade levels 6-12.

I was taught by my mentor to allow the tutee to teach themselves. Instead of making corrections for them, it was our writing center's policy to insist that each student held their own pen and made their own corrections. We would engage in discussion and challenge them to spot their own mistakes, acting as an invisible hand guiding them towards the knowledge that would serve them throughout their academic career instead of us becoming a quick fix for the present tense. Nothing is better than the look of recognition on a tutee's face when the light bulb goes off and you know that they simply "got it." While I was employed as a writing tutor in college, I was also taking additional courses to improve my skill set as a tutor. We focused on interpersonal communication and reaching out to students regardless of any baggage brought into the tutoring session. I worked as an undergraduate teachin

10 years experience training space operators for US Navy and US Air Force. Training includes orbital mechanics, space operations, and computer operations. Education includes 10 semesters of calculus, differential equations, and other higher math. Other education includes physics, geometry, trig, electronics, mechanical engineering. Happy to help in any of these areas. I like to start with where the student feels comfortable, then go from there. I do not dictate, but listen and understand first, then try to explain in a style the student likes. I am happy to get into other areas learning if the student or parent wishes.

I have three years teaching experience, mainly with disadvantaged populations, and five years tutoring experience. My rigorous teaching experience gives me the advantage of being able to work with any type of student with patience and courtesy. I coached volleyball at the Junior Olympic level for five years, working with girls from 12-18. When they had trouble in school, I tutored them before practice in a wide variety of subjects. The students told me they were appreciative of my ability to explain concepts and my unwavering dedication to achieving the goals set out for us. My teaching style is one of patience and encouragement. Not every student learns at the same pace. It is important to me to analyze the student's style of learning and try to comprehend where they might be having trouble understanding the concept or problem. For example, if the student has trouble with spellin
