Eric B. - Gainesville, FL 32608 (10.1 mi) - Literature Tutor - $25.00/hr.
I have aided many of my friends throughout high school and college with writing, editing and general English knowledge. In addition to helping many of my friends and classmates I also edited countless pages of my own work in a great variety of subjects. I graduated Cum Laude with a degree in English after taking courses in various fields on the subject. I received high marks in class ranging from general rhetoric to creative writing, as well analytical literature courses. I attempt to not only show students when a mistake has been made but teach them how to better avoid those mistakes in the future, as well as teaching them to better catch their own mistakes.

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.

Rebecca R. - Ocala, FL 34472 (24.6 mi) - Literature Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I have taught elementary school in private and public settings, in both New York City and Florida. I taught high school English and Global Studies in New York city. I have worked as a tutor in general subjects for elementary students, as well as for Reading, Language, and Biology for high school anc dollege students. I have also helped prepare adult students for the TABE, GED, and similar tests. I prefer to teach in a hands on fashion, but the most important aspect of my style is to adjust my methods to meet the needs of the student. I incorporate study and test taking skills into most tutoring sessions and specialize in tips and tricks for areas of difficulty.

Wenli S. - Saint Johns, FL 32259 (47.1 mi) - Literature Tutor - $25.00/hr.
My lessons can range from private lessons to group lessons of no more than five at one time. I prefer to be very involved in my students' progress, and will readily explain any questions that they do not understand. My main strategy is basically to lay out the concepts that will be covered that day, go over several practice problems, and give three or four practice problems for the students to work on independently. For art students, I will demonstrate with explanation the concept that we will be covering in that lesson (be it portraiture basics or still life basics), draw diagrams with the steps clearly labeled, and have the student independently work on a similar piece which applies the same concepts. I will supervise the student's progress and correct any lasting errors, but I prefer to have the students produce an almost entirely independently produced piece each session. I have work

HOW MAY I HELP YOU? CU CE VA POT AJUTA? WIE KANN ICH IHNEN HELFEN? COME POSSO AIUTARLA?
I am a woman of the world; I was born in Romania, went to school in Germany and I currently reside in the United States with my husband. We have lived in Jacksonville, Florida for the last three years. I have always been fascinated with languages, so much so that en route to getting my degree in linguistics in both English and German I decided to learn Italian as well. During the past ten years I've worked as an interpreter for police departments and hospitals, translated a wide variety of documents and tutored students of all skill levels. Assess the students proficiency (oral and written) and determine their aptitude with their desired foreign language.

Warren T - Gainesville, FL 32608 (9.7 mi) - Literature Tutor - $33.00/hr.
My favorite approach is to take it slow. I find that to teach a student a specific field of knowledge there is almost always a hindering block that cannot be seen at first glance. For instance, a student who is having trouble with division of decimal numbers may not realize that the whole issue stems from his lack of understanding of the multiplication tables. Allowing the student to show you what he or she knows and watching the student attempt the problem step-by-step will reveal this hidden block. Once this hidden block is taken care of, the information will flow easily and naturally. Throughout my education I have always prided myself in being an excellent student. Although this extended to all my subjects, my most passionate courses have always been in mathematics. This has been true from elementary all the way through college. Once in high school, I began tutoring students in this

Cristina C - Gainesville, FL 32608 (9.8 mi) - Literature Tutor - $33.00/hr.
I believe the best way to get ideas across to students and to help them become tangible, is to engage as many of the senses as possible. I realize every student has unique necessities when it comes to understanding different subjects, but I have found that the best way to teach is to create curiosity about the topic being taught and to apply the learning to real life. I use diagrams and real life stories that engage the curiosity of the student. I am patient and meticulous when teaching and make sure the student understands a matter before moving on to something more advanced. Teaching is more than drilling facts, principles, and formulas into the students. It is also giving them the tools necessary to perform critical thinking and conduct research on their own. In 2005, I earned a Master of Science in Animal Sciences from the University of Florida. I have done a lot of research and am p

Pruthu P - Gainesville, FL 32608 (9.9 mi) - Literature Tutor - $32.00/hr.
As a microbiology student, 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 let me to take a position at the University of Florida Teaching Center. I first started teaching as a math tutor but then I was moved to a chemistry position. I have also held a tutor position when I was a peer mentor to students in an introductory chemistry class. Also, my work through Big Brothers/Big Sisters has allowed me to focus on my tutoring skills. 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

Jessica A - Gainesville, FL 32608 (10.2 mi) - Literature Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I have a BA in Math and a love of logic. When I completed my degree, I was only a few courses shy of a second BA in philosophy. My other loves are spelling, grammar, poetry, literature, mind-activating games and puzzles, and similar activities. For the 2005-2006 school year, I took a long term substitute position for 6 months as a full-time instructor for drop-out prevention high school math students. Working with drop-out prevention students inspired me and showed me that I have a talent for sharing my knowledge in a way that is intelligible and absorbable, as well as transcendable beyond the average classroom environment. I prefer to educate by asking my pupils leading questions that encourage them to use their own internal skills to arrive at an answer, rather than being "spoon fed" or otherwise assisted. My attitude is professional but caring, and I feel that I'm able to relate

Christina T - Gainesville, FL 32601 (10.2 mi) - Literature Tutor - $34.50/hr.
Over the last year, I learned a Chinese saying that describes my attitude toward teaching: "Interest is the best teacher." I believe that the key to helping students learn is capturing their interest and helping them develop skills to learn for themselves. While many English and writing tutors simply edit papers for students, I emphasize other concerns such as writing good thesis statements, keeping clear focus, and writing good paragraphs and transitions. I also teach in an interactive way and enjoy getting to know a student so that I can adapt my teaching to his or her interests and needs. Far more important to me than helping students earn an “A” on assignments is helping them build skills and interest that will ensure future academic success. As an undergraduate, I earned a BA in English and a second BA in Writing, allowing me to hone my writing, discussion, reading, and analytic

Currently, I am a graduate student in the Counselor Education Department at the University of Florida. I graduated with my Bachelors of Science in Psychology and a Minor in Spanish from the University of Florida in May 2007. While I was earning my Bachelors’ degree I was a tutor for Upward Bound.

Ever since I can remember, I have enjoyed working with people; especially youth helping them become successful and build confidence in academics and other areas. When I can help other students understand a concept that was once very confusing for them, I feel very satisfied. I am very flexible in my teaching metho
