CLAST Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Elfers, FL

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.

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.

My teaching style is entirely dependent upon my learner. Reflective practice guides my analysis of an individual's abilities, interests and potential which in turn guides my own instructional practice. While some learner's do require discipline and a strict agenda, I frequently relinquish powers to the learner in an effort to fully engage them in their own learning (while maintaining teacher authority of course). Through instructional facilitation, constructive practice and reflective play I look to encourage a well-rounded experience to advocate the love of learning to my student. My experience in education is at once formal & casual, specific & broad. From working in the school setting with reading intensive students to conducting experiments and demonstrations on the floor of the MOSI science museum, I have gained a world of knowledge on teaching methodology and student assessment.

I love teaching. My style tends to be very hands-on, drawing analogies from many areas to clarify student understanding. I do this through games and word play. I usually utilize mnemonic devices to facilitate memorization of difficult concepts. I have always excelled at mathematics. I once was certified K-12 in math. I have taught math at the high school level and have tutored adults prepping for the GRE. My degree in Humanities was fulfilled by taking coursework in American Literature and English, which I have also taught at a local career college.

I love working and learning with students of all ages. I enjoyed working in a magnet high school that concentrates on leadership, career development, and breaks the mold teaching methods. I earned a Masters degree in Library Information Science and now work as a School Librarian and Technology Coordinator. Elementary school libraries/tech labs are a happening place! During these years, I also worked as an in home tutor through Get Smart, tutored with Sylvan Learning Center, and shared a classroom with another high school English teacher at Night School. I find it very satisfying to work with students as they supplement their education. A positive environment and methodology is very important in the learning experience - especially if that learning experience is rooted in frustration. I do my best to connect the concept to a student's personal experience so they may relate and build co

My teaching style varies depending on who I am teaching and what I am teaching. The consistent skills I use in teaching are getting people to develop and use different skills, particularly learning material and being able to apply it to life, ensuring people, and learning analytical (problem solving) skills. My goals include not only teaching material and skills that will help students, but truly making a profound difference in their lives. As an undergraduate, I worked as a volunteer tutor in the Robles Park/Seminole Heights area for two years. I tutored kids in math, science, English, and social sciences. I also tought sunday school in my church where I was involved in designing the curriculum and planning lessons. I am also an experienced substitute teacher. I've been recently certified to teach social science's in grades 6-12 by the Florida Department of Education.

While completing my B.A. in Management at Eckerd, I learned how to write effectively and enhanced my understanding of grammar, mathematics, history, social studies and economics. As a volunteer tutor at a public school and at my church, I began to develop my teaching skills. These rewarding experiences motivated me to become a full-time teacher. Teaching English and Learning Strategies for four years has taught me how to address students’ individual needs. I enhanced my knowledge further by successfully completing two American Literature courses last summer. I continue volunteer teaching children and young adults at two different organizations. I discovered my love of teaching when I started volunteering as a reading tutor and youth group leader. I am most effective when I work with students in a one-on-one or small group setting, which allows me to focus on individual students’ stren

Maria Montessori, one of the most powerful women in the foundation of educational philosophy, once said "Education cannot be effective unless it helps a child to open up himself to life.” Each child must be seen as the individual that they are. Special attention needs to be placed on a child's growth both physically and emotionally and the education of that particular child should be the focus of the teacher. Each student should be viewed as a success.Focus should be placed on a child's strengths while working to build and boost those areas which are not their strongest. As a teacher, you have the power to make an impact. During my time as a student in the University of Florida's Proteach Program I had many opportunities to work in various classroom settings and ultimately receive a Master's Degree in Elementary Education with a specialization in children's literature.

I'm a recent graduate with my BA in History with a Minor in Political Science and mentored students in before/after school programs for the past six years. Throughout my studies I have acquired a ubiquitous amount of knowledge in how vital education and structure is to every culture. Furthermore, I have learned critical thinking, grammatical, and public speaking skills through writing and presenting numerous independent research projects. I believe knowledge is the key to success and without that key the future will never be unlocked. My goal is to pass that key onto the next generation as it was passed onto me. I'm humble; understanding, firm, encouraging and I believe in learning through “trial and error.” My style is to guide students by providing them the key fundamentals and allowing them to blossom to surpass their full potential. Success only comes before work in the dictionary.

My goal is to make certain that I know each child's own particular learning style and use the tools to make him or her successful. I use a variety of strategies, especially in writing, to make certain that students know how to write successfully. I use several graphic organizers for teaching the writing process and work with students until they find one that is a good fit for their learning style. I also believe in incorporating technology to help them become better writers through the use of online materials as well. I believe in finding the best approach for the student to help achieve success. I have 14 years of teaching experience in secondary and post-secondary education in the fields of English/Language Arts, Social Studies/History, and a minor in French. I have taught English/Language Arts at every grade level in middle school and high school as well as the collegiate level.

I believe all children can enjoy eating broccoli. I find this works best if the broccoli is smothered with cheese and accompanied on the plate with something fried. I have found that overeating is a very effective way to teach the student dangerous gastric consequences. I demonstrate this by ordering pizza, allowing them to eat as much as they want, and then immediately afterwards giving them free reign to various quarts of ice cream. I know I can make a difference in every students' stomach. After graduating cum laude from Yale University with a PhD in Eating, I interned for two years at Dunkin Donuts, fine tuning my skills in eating pastries. I've also spent two summers eating in various food malls, specializing in China One, Chick Fil-A, and Baskin Robins. I have tutored students Overeating, Pizza, and Alka Seltzer.

My teaching style is very specific to each student I tutor. I try to tailor my thoughts so that any student at any level in the subject can understand me. At the teaching center, the focus was to help guide the student to get the correct answer and not just give the answer. Sometimes the thinking process to achieving the correct answer is more important than the answer itself. I also try using diagrams and figures when they are called for to explain some of the topics. I frequently use positive reinforcement so the student feels even more encouraged to learn. As a microbiology student at the University of Florida, I have taken rigorous courses in the sciences as well as math. The laboratory classes that accompany the science classes also provided first hand knowledge and the ability to write research papers and lab reports. This along with my passion for chemistry led me to take a positi
