ACT is one of my top subjects! I have tutored several students for ACT. I can help with both the subject matter and test-taking strategies.

As an engineer and I have taught planners and engineers how to use software to do calculations. I have taught GRE preparation for Kaplan (analytical and verbal reasoning) both to small classes of 3 to 7 students and individual tutoring. In 2009, I was accepted into the Educators of Change program by the Duval County School Board. I am now a certified teacher in Mathematics and Physics (grades 9-12). I have a bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering and a master’s in Public Administration. In addition, I have learned extensive grammatical skills through writing articles for publication and many professional reports.
I enjoy teaching and working with children. While I believe that all children can learn, they do so in their own ways and at their own pace. It is the tutor’s responsibility to ensure that the student(s) understand the material. It is important to show students how one id ... read more

Better academics combined with more fun is the goal.

I consider it my duty to do what it takes to make the tutoring FUN for the person being tutored.
I have helped friends (and their children) to prepare for exams since when in high school I won various awards for my performance on exams. I won the top score for the Regents exam for Duval County in 1971 and for this I was recognized by the downtown Rotary Club. Also I won the top statewide scholarship award for the Chamber of Commerce and for the N.H.S. due to performance on exams. Also I won the Merit Scholarship award. I have only recently started to do tutoring for pay. Over the years I have helped my children, my grandchildren, and friends and others to prepare for exams ranging from kindergarten phonics up to and beyond SAT exams.

As an educator in the public sector, I recognize the growing gap in education. I also understand the pressure put on teacher's and the lack of time to get student's to where they need to be. It is imperative that students have the opportunity to be provided with academic assistance that is relative to what is needed to progress through school and life. With over twelve years of experience, a Masters in Business, and a Specializing in Educational leadership, I have the qualities that is needed for students achieve academic success.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a former attorney, currently in work-release. The undercapitalization of my practice kept me from being able to withstand a series of family financial disasters, and I stole to make ends meet. For this, I take complete personal responsibility. I have been a good, hard worker for my entire life, and I respectfully ask for a second chance. Bonded to $10,000.00.

Extremely patient, cool tutor wanting to help you

Extremely patient, but organized. Teach students how to be organized, how to properly prepare for tests and to be able to recall information when needed.
Seven years of experience as a case manager with Healthy Families, where we helped teach families for to be better parents and to become self-sufficient. Besides being extremely organized, I am very patient and try to reach everyone on whatever level they are currently on. I don't just shove a bunch of information at you and hope you get it. Instead, I build on what strengths you already have, and show you how to use your unique, individual learning style when I am tutoring you. My strengths have always been writing, spelling, and all things related to Language Arts/English Comp. Also, I have always been pretty successful at test taking and study techniques.

ACT is one of my top subjects! I have tutored test preparation and test taking for the ACT for many years. There are specific approaches necessary to ensuring a high score on this exam that are different from the SAT, and I will coach you into achieving your goals and qualifying for the school of your choice!

Starting as an English major, and working as a tutor for Huntington Learning Centers, I have always loved working with students of all levels in the English language - in all its facets: from grammar to style. At a time when proper use of the language is increasingly rare (but required to master tests) it is a special interest of mine to promote successful language arts skills and strategies in students. Good writing can be persuasive, informative, or entertaining, and each has its particular components. Having been a professional writer, editor, tutor and teacher, I am intimately aware of what it takes to excel in each.
Having been tutor at Huntington Learning centers and a private tutor, I excel at one on one tutoring relationships. It is essential to understand the level of competence of the student and moving from that to gradual improvement of skills. Each student is an i ... read more

I Will Meet You Where You Are!

I believe every student can learn! School was never meant to be a struggle, an effort yes, but not a struggle!
Hello! I have 15 years of teaching experience in the classroom and have been tutoring now since January of 2012. I have a true passion for teaching! I have taught in the parochial, private, and public schools. I taught at Assumption Catholic School from 1997-2004, English and Reading to 6th-12th grade ESE students at The Broach School from 2004-2008, and Intensive Reading to 11th and 12th graders at Andrew Jackson High School (public inner city urban in Duval County) from 2010-2011. I have also conducted FCAT, ACT, and SAT prep, as well as study skills in the summer months when students don't have schoolwork! While in the classroom my average student came up 3-4 grade levels in a year in reading comprehension, fluency, vocabulary, spelling, and language mechanics. My certi ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have experience in working with children and young people in my missions and humanitarian work. I have lead teams of teenagers and worked with children in local schools, orphanages, and community organizations. I also worked at a daycare during my internship in 2004.

I utilize a very structured teaching style that usually utilizes a lot of examples and visual aides. It also takes getting to know your student and what they best respond to. I'm a very no nonsense kind of teacher and do not allow my students to veer off track in the middle of sessions. I do believe that every individual child requires different methods to best absorb the topic which they're trying to understand. I do have strong skills in finding what works best for each child.
I have an affinity working with chldren. I was as a social worker/court worker through the Department of Children and Families, a teacher at a school in Mims, FL for ESE kids for about a year and a half. This was from 200-2001.I worked as a therapeutic mentor for Devereux of Florida and also teaching social skills for the Department of Juvenile Justice/Board of Education for Volusia Co. Florida.
