ACT Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Felda, FL

I have personally took the ACT and did very well on it. More recently I have assisted in ACT preparation. I have done private tutoring of high school students in math from pre-algebra to calculus and in other subjects. I have also home schooled adopted daughters from lower grades to high school level, including teaching English as a second language. In graduate school I was a teaching assistant in an electric machinery laboratory for non-electrical engineering majors. My own experience with standardized tests includes having taken the ACT in 1971 with scores ranging from 22 (76th percentile) in English to 31 (97th percentile) in math with a composite of 27 (93rd percentile) and having passed the GRE in 1975. Other previous experience includes 34 years experience as a communication system engineer. This experience includes satellite communications and other communications for the U

I have been working in education for the previous 9 years and have worked with students in all grade levels including K-12, college, and adult learners. My experiences include teaching college level courses, substitute teaching in grade school, and in home private tutoring. I believe that all students can be successful if some one is able to teach them in the way that they learn the best.

I am a professional teacher. I have 15 years of experience teaching. I have taught Math and Computer Science in college. Also I have taught in both public and private school systems. I have experience private tutoring for students in school, college and also university. I do understand that all students learn at different degrees but they all can learn better. So I am always teaching my students with considering their individual characteristics. I enjoy teaching because I very often hear from my students that they really start to understand Math or Computer Science better only when I take them to learn. Working one-on-one with a student is a great opportunity to really focus on the individual characteristics and academic needs of the student and helping them to be more successful in learning.

One on one or group. Lessons taught, homework assigned, then follow up of homework assignment. My experience, (both academic and work)has been widely varied, ranging from research and engineering to financial management in a corporate environment, followed by golf course design and landscape management. In addition I used my experience in construction and woodworking to build and market patio furniture. Unfortunately the housing depression of the mid 2000's caused the business to be non profitable and was closed. Since 2005 I have been semi retired and used my construction experience to work at a lumber and hardware store.

As an employee of Collier County Public Schools for 10 years, I have been in the education field and enjoy working with students of all ages.

My tutoring has been math, reading, writing, science, history and other areas like SAT testing preparation. Currently I hold a BS in Management and have a teaching certificate pending for grades Pre Kindergarten - 3rd grade. I have tutored in private homes as well as at school, public libraries and educational centers. Throughout my tutoring experiences I have tutored one on one as well as group tutoring, depending on the need of each child and what the subject being tutored in. I have my own tutoring materials and am familiar with pre and post testing the students. I have been working with children for 10 years and absol

A degree in Bioethics reflects the importance I place on interdisciplinary studies. As an undergraduate, I completed all of the Pre-medicine requirements with the exception of a few labs. I believe literature and philosophy to play an essential role in all our respective endeavors but found in lacking in a Biology major. Thus, I took it upon myself to develope my own major which integrated the sciences and the humanities. After college I taught as a substitute teacher and have experience working with children of all levels of intelligence and of all different backgrounds. I can provide tutoring assistance for college and graduate level courses in law and literature. I am able to provide assistance for a variety of college level courses from Biology to Philosophy. I can edit and proof graduate and college-level works for any class. Learning to write well will impress your professors and g

I have always been driven to succeed, especially in school. I graduated magna cum laude with my BA in Communication this past December. This degree increased my own ability to communicate effectively and I am now pursuing a BA in English this Fall so that I can teach high school English. I am fortunate in that I have done well in all of my general education classes, making me confident in my ability to tutor algebra I and II, geometry, chemistry, biology, earth science, and of course English, whether it be writing, reading, or grammar. This past year I have been tutoring Algebra, as well as basic math skills in order to catch my students up to their current grade level. I have worked with children for what seems like my whole life, mostly through church. I know that every child can succeed with the right help. I myself am caring, compassionate, patient, and encouraging. I believe that my

My teaching style is conversational and relaxed. I am an expert at overcoming school-related anxiety, especially related to math. I have excellent listening and communication skills and quickly pick up what my students needs are. I am quick on my feet and am able to flex with nearly any situation so that the student's needs are met. I very much enjoy connecting with my students, and relating their personal interests to the material being learned. I believe that modeling is one of the best ways to teach, and students learn quickly when I explain the concept and then we model together how to find a solution. I began my education at Purdue University, where I completed three years of a Construction Engineering and Management program. I then changed to an education program at Trinity International University and graduated with a BS in Secondary Math Education. During college and in t

I enjoy working with children of all ages. I enjoy children who can appreciate being challenged, wanting to learn, and children who truly want to succeed. I always strive for the best. I believe anyone can meet their potential if they are willing and able to put the time, effort, and sacrifice into what they need. As an Engineer major, I am interested in math and science in particular. I carried a 3.85 GPA throughout college, and earned a Golden Key International Honor Society award. I believe that working hard to achieve the top grades of your class will make you successful, and a good student.

I have worked extensively with students with special needs over the past ten years as a paraprofessional. These experiences as well my post secondary education in Elementary and Special Education have given me the confidence and skills needed to become an experienced tutor. I have assisted students in various areas of the general education curriculum by modifying instruction to meet the needs of the individual student's needs. My goal in teaching students is to assess the best way I can provide instruction to utilize each student's individual strengths and manner of learning. I strongly believe in combining methods of instruction to most effectively fit the individual's needs thereby making the learning process successful as well as meaningful and memorable. My teaching style is creative, supportive and dependable. I aim to make the student comfortable enough in his or her own learning s

It is important for all children to have an equal opportunity to learn. This means that I must teach in various styles or to multiple intelligences so that each student is able to understand materials taught. In the appropriate environment and with appropriate materials, it is possible that each child can be a success, given that the teacher understands that not all students learn in the same manner. With degrees from one of the nations top universities, I have many experiences working with students. I have worked with students through Jumpstart (an AmeriCorps program), as a youth camp specialist, and as a after school program coordinator at an elementary school in Naples. I am currently working on a graduate degree in School Counseling. I believe that helping youth succeed to be their best is very important and must be a priority.

After graduation I taught English for 28 years. During this time I became a Dept. Head. I also was trained to train teachers in learning styles and hemisphericity. I have adult AD/HD. I began working on teaching methods for AD/HD students. I have also trained over 200 teachers. I have tutored students for the GED, ACT, SAT, LSAT, and MCAT. I believe strongly in approaching each child with a variety of techniques. I let the child explore why, then give concept information. The student then needs to practice, and finally personalize the information. This must be done using both analysis (left brain) and synthesis(right brain).

As I discovered while in college, I have been instructing people all of my life. While working in the food-service industry for the past twenty-plus years, I have held supervisory positions and provided training to literally hundreds of employees. This natural ability to work with others became apparent when I began tutoring. I have strong organizational skills and have been trained in many aspects of tutoring through my involvement in the Supplemental Instruction Program at Florida Gulf Coast University. As a non-traditional student working toward overcoming disability, I have compassion and determination in my own personal presentation which lends to my authenticity. As a non-traditional student, my college experience awarded me many advantages, as well as, many opportunities to uncover hidden skills.
