High School Life Science Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Felda, FL

I define teaching as the process by which I help students to learn. I guide learning by helping students individually, at other times instructing an entire class, and still at other times by encouraging class participation. Spontaneity is a valued part of teaching. If the teaching appears memorized, not spoken diaphragmatically, not spoken with eye contact, and if there are no visual aids, learning will likely not take place. Learning is, of course, the main purpose of education. It is the goal of every student and the task of every teacher to increase knowledge and understanding in the classroom. I feel that the concept of learning should be focused around four main areas. Independent thought is essential to the development of each student. Being able to form unique independent ideas to solve problems will serve them both in and outside of the classroom. Group interaction is also an imp

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 like to make teaching fun! If a student is bored they aren't going to be putting 100% into their work. I also use a positive reward system and celebrate all achievement. Even if it is minor. I have been working with kids of all ages for a long time. I love to see them learn and grow. That moment when they "get" something is magical! I spent the 2011-2012 school year teaching at a title 1 school in Collier County and have grown exponentially from it! I had several students in my class who needed special help, and half of my class were English language learners. These students have helped me to strengthen my skills and adapt to different student's styles.

I am an extremely passionate teacher who believes that all children deserve a chance to excel. I believe that children all learn at different levels and in different ways, and that needs to be taken into consideration. I am patient, compassionate, and intuitive to the specific needs of children and young adults. I enjoy being around children and it gives me great pleasure to see them improve in all subjects and gain self-assurance in themselves. I have dedicated my life to the improvement of the lives of children and am adept in doing so. I can be the one who gives your child the confidence in themselves and their work and instill a love of learning. I graduated Cum Laude from Barry University with a B.S. Ed with ESOL endorsement. The ESOL certification trained me in the best practices for reaching students of other languages and nationalities. My student teaching internship and it gav

I have been working with children for 10 years and absolutely enjoy it. My belief is that all students can succeed when given the chance. During my pre test I assess the student and observe to implement the best tutoring tactic for each and every child. All children are different and special in each and every way. The best reward in tutoring is to see the student being tutored academically succeed. When tutoring not only does the tutor need to know the material being taught but also be able to communicate well with the child and bond in order to get across and be effective. Another important thing is to communicate with the parents and the teachers regularly to that the areas in need are being reinforced in all aspects. 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. Since 2004, I have bee

I like more interactive methods, as that is the basically what I did the majority of the time. I don't enjoy seminars with large groups as much. I try to be very patient and articulate and if one avenue of explanation is not working I will try another. I am an encourager - you can do it! I have 4 elementary age school grandchilden, two of whom are home schooled and like to help them discover new things. As a Nurse Manager of an ICU, I was tapped to teach IV Therapy and heart rhythm monitoring classes.That developed into a FT position as a Nursing Inservice Coordinator,then later as a Director of a hospital wide education department,either teaching classes myself(such as in CPR)or coordinating others to teach.My years as a consultant I either taught seminars having to do with quaility improvement or worked with smaller groups and on-in-one in business/hospital facilities.

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 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 Communication degree has given me the unique ability to be able to explain problems in concepts in many different ways, which allows me to discover which works best for each student. I also try to relate problems and concepts, especially those that students are not fond of, to their personal lives, whether it be through what they'll need to do in college in order to pursue their dream, or how it applies to real life. I strive to help children embrace the learning of all subjects. 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 effec

I am a recent Business graduate with a 4.0 GPA, who volunteers my time everyday at James Stephens International Academy, as a teacher assistant. I don’t have a specific age group that I prefer; I love inspiring children to make the right choices, when it comes to education. I tell my daughter all the time how blessed she is to do any kind of school activity, because I didn’t make those wise decisions, I chose to drop out of school in the eight grade. It’s nothing that I am proud of, that’s why I am committed to enhancing and supporting the education of my daughter and other children’s. I have a remarkable ability to deliver a one on one service focused on learning and skills development. Engaged in academic activities with selected students either one-on-one or with small groups.

I discovered my love for teaching and working with children in the Dominican Republic while on an alternative spring break working with at-risk youth living on the streets of the city of Santiago. With this experience I learned that one of the most important thing in the world is education, and I began my life as an educator. With tutoring I try to implement a facilitated teaching method that involves students pushing themselves to learn. As far as my teaching style goes, I think it is the role of the student to want to learn, and if they are struggling with this concept I work to motivate them to understand the necessity and great opportunities that education provides. I graduated from Florida Gulf Coast University with a degree in biology and chemistry minor. I finished with honors, while in the honors program and Phi Eta Sigma honor society and the Golden Key honor society. Throughout

My level of experience in the education world has gone onto the Masters Level and I am currently pursuing my double master’s degree in Psychology. While in college, I served as a tutor in the Psychology Department for freshman who needed additional help in their studies. During my master’s study, I worked for an agency that placed Foster Children in Foster Homes. It was my job to ensure that I effectively and accurately taught parenting classes to the potential foster parents. My strong areas are in English, Science, and Psychology as well as Reading. I have also worked in an academic environment for the last year, and had the opportunity to tutor college freshman at Southwest Florida College during my time with the college. Teaching has become something that I discovered a great passion for while I was educating parents in a Parenting Class for Foster Parents. Each student is different

Both my undergraduate and graduate degrees required a high level of excellence in writing papers.  I have learned extensive grammatical skills due to writing research papers and essays on various topics.  In addition, I have tutored several youth and children in math, history, and English. Many of these youth came from Korea and had to overcome language barriers in their studies.  This made my job as a tutor more difficult, but more rewarding as I was able to see them progress in the English language and their studies.  I work with youth on a weekly basis and strive to teach in creative and interesting ways. I love teaching and working with youth and children.  I am patient with students and teach in a way that empowers the student to find the answers for himself/herself.  I love when my students have "aha" moments and really begin to understand the topic of study.  I believe education i

I earned my Bachelors degree in Oregon and starting substituting there on my way to a permanent position. In Oregon, you must have a teaching certificate to sub. By the time my first year ended, they had passed a tax reform bill and were actually laying teachers off. I came to Florida in hopes of getting a teaching position, but found the attitudes on education much different and chose to go another route. I still substitute regularly. I also worked as a Teaching Assistant for a First grade classroom. I also tutored for a national franchize for one year until someone else took over the business. I tutored mostly reading and other elementary subjects. I plan to teach English to Spanish speaking students and adults next year and would like more experience with teaching adults. I like to teach with a hands on learning method. I believe both children and adults learn better when they can see
