A Little Bit About Me...

I have a Bachelor's of Science degree in Elementary Education with a minor in math. I have a Master's of Science degree in Elementary Education K-6 with a math concentration. These degrees and the nine credit hours in Gifted Education have enabled me to have an extensive understanding of mathematics, logic and critical & creative thinking. I have taught second, fifth, and sixth grade self-contained classes, sixth and seventh grade math, and I was the coordinator/teacher of the Gifted & Talented program for our district which included grades K-8. I have tutored students in mathematics and language arts.
For me, teaching is not just a career, it is a passion. I enjoy the challenges it has brought me through the variety of grade levels and concentrations that I have taught. I have been lucky to have worked with diverse populations at all grade levels K-8. I encourage students to be cr ... read more

I am qualified to assist with aspects of their education and training, if this something you'd like. I had a teaching credential and at one time as a full time teachers aide, with experience in grades first to six and train staff in a variety of software programs. I am currently retired from the classroom, but have the ability to tutor basic subjects and to oversee homework assignments and special curriculum-related projects.
What I like most about tutoring is the great nervous energy and excitement I feel as I work with children, this despite the fact that I have been tutoring for over 5 years. The anticipation of meeting so many new people and working with other students and starting adventure in learning gets my juices flowing. It is the excitements of the students that I come across keep my interest each time I interact with them. It never ceases to amaze me how every student ... read more

My compassionate teaching style is relaxed; stressing self-discipline and time management skills while learning to focus on the fundamental concepts in any discipline in a concrete and consecutive manner. Positive recognition and rewarding good behavior is a fundamental part of my style including clearly communicating the subject matter in a concise, practical, sequential manner from the the basic simpler material to the more difficult material, one step at a time. I hope to help all students that I meet to first and foremost feel good and positive about their abilities and themselves and strive to achieve their educational goals and do their best.
As a graduate of Florida International University with a Master of Science in Education, I learned the importance of teaching by studying various subjects to enhance my teaching abilities and help me communicate in a positive and clear ... read more

I have been a volunteer Sunday School Teacher for about twenty years teaching children and adults from ages 3 to 93. I have also taught scores of friends and relatives how to sail and water ski over the past three decades. I enjoy imparting knowledge to others so that they might learn and grow and so that their lives might be enriched because they have met me.
I am patient and kind. I simplify subjects and teach using examples and stories. I try to engage the student with practical examples and when possible actual experiences. I put my heart and soul into teaching and my students appreciate that and enjoy my company, too.

I have taught many subjects and sports throughout my life. I have always enjoyed teaching. My tutoring results are mirrored in the grades of my students. I usually assess the present situation, attempt to bring the student current, then cover material expected for the grade level that may have been missed. A good basic knowledge and ongoing supervision with attention to student organization provides lasting results.
I spent 6 years tutoring my children who were ESE and ADHD and have been tutoring others for a year. My students range from first grade through college in mathematics and grades 1-8 in all subjects and preparation for FCAT, SAT, ACT. I have a BS in Mathematics with a minor in physics and and AAS in data processing. I use a variety of methods to teach effectively.

I like to teach by example and immersion. So much of what schools preach today is rote memorization, and to a certain degree, this cannot be avoided. But whenever possible, I like to try and find real world applications and demonstrations to get my lessons across to my pupil.
Throughout high school and college, I've always excelled in my school work. I was president of the math club and often tutored my peers during my spare time. The University of Florida has provided me with a well rounded education, and I feel myself knowledgable in many areas, from languages like french, spanish and hindi, to the sciences like chemistry, biology, and physics. I'm also very familiar with writing term papers.

More About This Tutor...

My passion for language and literature drives my desire to teach; I love to share everything from a basic grammar lesson to an in-depth, critical exegesis of a foreign novel. I strive to provide an individual-based educational experience for each child. I draw on each student's strengths and weaknesses to tailor each lesson. As the poet Stanley Kunitz once wrote, "live in the layers / not on the litter."
As a graduate of a private liberal arts college, I was educated in English and multi-cultural literature. As a reflection of what I was learning, I became interested in participating in the literary tradition, and began to take creative writing very seriously. I developed a passion for both poetry and literature and wish to share it with my students. I have tutored English, writing, history, ecology, and screenwriting.

I learn best when I am to teach someone. I love the fact that I have to be enthused or they cannot be. My goal is to make a subject interesting. I am a firm believer in teaching through curiousity. I like William Glasser's approach to education and how it can be a joyful experience for all.
I graduated with a teaching degree and taught high school as well as junior high. Since then, I have also been involved with elementary, kindergarten, and one on one reading (volunteer). I recently completed courses in Inclusion and Classroom management. Being involved in post-rehab and fitness, I have experience of working with adults as well. I am quite capapble of dealing with all types and ages of students.
