Lauren S. - Gainesville, FL 32601 (17.9 mi) - Guitar Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I am an intermediate guitar player and can teach basic concepts. I have experience tutoring children of all ages. Having younger siblings of my own, ages 10 and 14, has given me the ability to communicate and relate to kids. I find it very rewarding when my students make progress in their studies, and I enjoy tutoring various subjects ranging from science to history.

adam W. - Ponte Vedra Beach, FL 32082 (41.2 mi) - Guitar Tutor - $40.00/hr.
Rock/Blues are my main influences. I also teach Metal and Folk (sounds crazy, I know!) I've been a professional guitarist for 25 years. I've Played on and/or produced countless records. I opened The Music Studio in 2006. The main focus was Rock n' Roll (Guitar, Bass, Drums, Keyboards and Vocals. We had 4 teaching rooms where me and my staff would teach each student the same song in the same time slot, and they would perform it after a 2 or 3 month period. We also had a top of the line recording studio where I produced bands from around the US and Sweden. We also used it to record our students

Rebecca D - Gainesville, FL 32609 (15.6 mi) - Guitar Tutor - $36.00/hr.
As an art teacher of over 15 years, I have taught painting, drawing, sculpture, ceramics, graphic arts, art history, and darkroom photography. I received my Bachelor of Arts degree in Fine Arts at Christopher Newport University and my Master of Arts degree in Teaching and Learning (in the art classroom) from Nova Southeastern University. I have also taught German, tutored pre-algebra, and coached high school tennis. Currently, I am a freelance graphic and fine artist, as well as an art history research writer. I love teaching art to all age levels. I really enjoy it when I show someone an art technique, they learn it, and make it their own. When teaching art, I feel it very important to demonstrate a technique, discuss how the technique has been used in different cultures, and then for the student to mimic my actions. Once the technique has been mastered, the student can take the t

Charles D - Gainesville, FL 32609 (17.9 mi) - Guitar Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I have always had an inclination to teach. To me, there is something very exciting about conveying understanding of a concept to another person. I think I have a particular ability for identifying precisely what aspect of a problem a student does not understand and then elucidating that point. I think much instructional time is spent inefficiently in explaining what a student already understands and not explaining what he or she does not understand. This is why I believe engaging the student in a conversation is vital, helping them identify their difficulties so that I can address them specifically. I have always been an avid reader and writer, as well as a natural teacher. As early as middle school, I was tutoring my fellow classmates at the request of their parents. I studied Latin for five years, which provided an exceptional foundation for the study of English, which I pursued as my

Christine R - Gainesville, FL 32609 (18 mi) - Guitar Tutor - $39.50/hr.
I received my Bachelor's Degree in Psychology and I have a Master's degree in Family, Youth and Community Science, with a focus on youth and community development. I was a substitute teacher in the Atlanta area for one year which gave me the chance to mentor and tutor several high school students in math. I have worked with kids through volunteer opportunities as well, such as a local community garden at a middle school. I have excellent written communication skills as well due to writing a thesis, research reports and running a business for the past 5 years. I love mentoring and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but they all have different learning styles (auditory, visual, tactile, and kinesthetic). Also, learning must be relevant to each student. For example, using sports statistics to teach math. I am patient, easy going, and fun. I am a firm believer in t

Allie W - Gainesville, FL 32608 (19.5 mi) - Guitar Tutor - $40.00/hr.
Because I learn best from application and hands-on problem solving, I incorporate games, diagrams, metaphors and stories into my teaching. I am patient, fun, and organized. I enjoy leading an individual to discover not only the answer, but also the method to solve similar problems. I believe study skills and time management are the keys to academic success and strive to help my students develop habits that will carry them through the future. I will graduate from the University of Florida in April 2010 with a BA in Biology, which required me to take up to Calculus 1 as well as Analytical Chemistry and Physiology classes. I have excelled in courses requiring numerical analysis and have experience teaching and tutoring, both in academics and athletics. Over the past 7 years, I have tutored peers in College Algebra, Trigonometry, Biology, Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry, and have given ho

Grant C - Gainesville, FL 32607 (20.2 mi) - Guitar Tutor - $50.50/hr.
I love seeing people understand something once I explain it to them in a way that they can understand it. I also love working with kids and teenagers because I believe that if we have a positive influence on young people they will grow up to be the leaders that our nation needs. My teaching style is geared at making people think. Students don't learn when they are spoon fed their education but when they are lead in the correct direction. I am currently enrolled in the graduate engineering program at the University of Florida, in which I plan to graduate in the spring of 2012. I enjoy working with people and I have a strong background in numerical analysis. I have taken the GRE, ACT, and the SAT. Scores were high above the national average for math and at about the average for the written portion. I do have experience in writing research papers and laboratory reports, all in the field of

Joann H - Ocala, FL 34472 (30 mi) - Guitar Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I love teaching and working with children. I believe for my experience that all kids can learn but in their own ways and time. This means that there are approximately three kinds of learning: visually (visual things help this kind of children to learn better like drawings or putting color to difference things), auditory (this ones like to learn having backgrounds of sounds. It could be either with music, songs, etc). I'm a very peaceful but right person who loves to see kids grow in every way. I am patient, easy ongoing and considerate. I believe that a few good educators can make a difference not only in your child's life but in the whole world. I have a Bachelor's degree in Speech Language Pathology field as an Assistant. I graduated 11 years ago from University of Puerto Rico Medical Science Campus. During my bachelor's degree I took some curses of American Sign Language. Fro

Christian R - Belleview, FL 34420 (33.5 mi) - Guitar Tutor - $36.00/hr.
When I begin tutoring a new student, my first objective is for us to get to know each other. The student will not be able to receive very much from me until he/she is comfortable with me. Once they feel that I care, they open up and the learning really begins! When I really get a feel for the personality and whatever particular challenges are unique for this person in this class, I am able to determine the best way to communicate the subject and improve the skills. I like to think outside the box to find the best way for that student to have that "got it" moment! Literally all my life I have been asked by students, parents and teachers to help students who were having trouble. I get tremendous fulfillment from watching someone who has been frustrated finally "get it." In addition to teaching music lessons, tutoring all subjects, and homeschooling my own two children, I have worked for th

Danielle A - Orange Park, FL 32065 (35.9 mi) - Guitar Tutor - $34.00/hr.
I keep an open mind that most children learn in different ways. I try to provide lots of different ways of learning the same subject. I have a background in Anthropology and have traveled extensively throughout the globe and feel that it is my duty to make my teaching style multicultural and to make sure that no one is falling through the cracks. I try to laugh and smile a lot and find that students are more able to open up to me when I do. I always try to lead by example and do everything that I expect my students to do. It is very important to have high expectations for the students and to let them know what those expectations are. I was enrolled in the Master's Program for Elementary Education at the University of Florida and volunteered over 300 hours in the public school system. I have only one year left before obtaining my advanced degree should I decide to return to school.

Tamika M - Trenton, FL 32693 (38.4 mi) - Guitar Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I am a recent graduate from the University of Florida from the College of Education with a BA in Elementary Education. I entered the ProTeach program during my junior year at UF. I have been exposed to a lot of teaching strategies and ideas that have been used in the classroom from the past until the present. I had the opportunity to use these practices in actual classrooms by developing lesson plans to teach elementary students. I have the experience of being the teacher in the classroom and working with students one-on-one with reading and math. I’m currently completing my Master’s degree at the University of Florida in Elementary Education. I’m doing a full-time internship this semester in a 2nd grade classroom in Alachua County. I am very passionate about the job career I have chosen at the University of Florida. I take pride in being a highly qualified educator by being exposed to t

Patrick A - Flagler Beach, FL 32136 (39.6 mi) - Guitar Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I have two bachelors degrees, however, I believe it is my experience teaching children that has helped me develop a good sense on how to approaching teaching scenarios. I have years of experience teaching children in academics, music, and dramatic arts, as well as coaching basketball and teaching golf at the professional level. Each child is different. I always try to notice and acknowledge what benefits each student, as I think this applies to all forms of teaching from academics to athletics. Getting on their level is what ultimately benefits the child from the get go and gains their interest. If I'm interested, then the child is interested. I do my best to make sure the child is setting their goals and doing their best to achieve them in the way and style for which they are best suited.

Elizabeth M - Ponte Vedra Beach, FL 32082 (47.1 mi) - Guitar Tutor - $40.50/hr.
My teaching style in general is aimed at teaching independent critical thinking and problem solving skills, with much positive praise along the way. This approach tends to foster a sense of accomplishment and skills so that the student will learn how to learn, and learn how to approach confidently assignments and tasks independently. Of course, the specifics of this approach depend upon the age, individual needs, and processing style of the student. My ultimate goal for students of all ages is that they learn how to not need me, but learn how to reach their own potential. I strive to make learning enjoyable and want my students to feel confident that they can generalize their approach and skills to all areas. In addition to 3 years of formal college teaching, I have conducted many evaluations ages 3 through adult to identify learning disabilities, and made recommendations for optimizin
