Florida Writes Tutoring
Florida Writes is an assessment of writing proficiency which incorporates the assessment of higher order skills, since students are required to generate and develop the ideas that form the basis for their written responses. Looking for help? Select a tutor today. Beginning in 2010, each essay was scored by one rater. In previous years, two raters were used and the scores were averaged. Prior to 2010, a student could have received a half-point score, such as 4.5; whereas since 2010, no half-point scores are possible. Additionally, beginning in 2010, each student within the same grade level was required to write an essay using the same mode of writing (narrative, expository, or persuasive).

Miriam W - Baltimore, MD 21201 (9.6 mi) - Florida Writes Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I have been teaching and doing research in chemistry, biology, and genetics for many years. I am an avid tutor and teacher for all sciences. As with all laboratory sciences I have written many research papers; therefore, I am confident I can also assist students with writing papers and essays. I like to figure out whether a student learns best by words, diagrams and pictures, or analogy. I enjoy finding ways to simplify things and help someone else learn. In addition to all the teaching I've done at the graduate level, I've also helped my two children with homework when needed for the past 20 years.

Thiago P - arnold, MD 21012 (10 mi) - Florida Writes Tutor - $45.00/hr.
My one to one teaching style is tailored to adapt to the students learning style. However, my experience shows that keeping the student active during the learning process promotes a better learning.
I use Microsoft Excel during my lessons. I create formulas, graphs, etc. and the Excel spreadsheet and ask the student to enter the data so that he/she can see how things change with different entries.
This interactive process increased the student interest, kept them focused and helped them to hold the knowledge in many instances. Most of my teaching experience is from one to one tutoring. I have tutored over 20 students and always received compliments regarding my reliability, punctuality, style and patience.
I have tutored for students with ages raging from 14 to 25 years old and included algebra, geometry, calculus, physics, etc.
I worked as an 8th grade math teacher for a Catholic Sc

Reif A - Aberdeen, MD 21001 (20.3 mi) - Florida Writes Tutor - $39.00/hr.
Stylistically, I am a showman, a questioner, and possessed of a strong desire to reach every one of my students. I try to connect with each student on a friendly and comfortable level so that confidence-building is easy.
It is important for me to find ways to evaluate quickly what the student already knows and still needs to know. I have taught every grade level from Pre-Kindergarten to college in my 30 years in the schools of Connecticut, New York, and Maryland. I was an assistant principal for six years, have taught both academic classroom core subjects and dramatic arts, and have written curriculum for a great variety of settings. I love teaching mathematics and writing, because they are logical and marvelous as life-long tools. I believe the same for reading and literature. My formal training as a stage actor and radio announcer/dj allow me to use my voice as a valuable tool in comm

Nji A - Upper Marlboro, MD 20772 (29.6 mi) - Florida Writes Tutor - $40.50/hr.
Teaching is a passion to me and I have a sense of accomplishment when I share or give back what I have been privilleged to acquire in my studies of sciences and math. I teach by example. For instance I will know that my students have understood when they perform a return demonstration. I am a nice guy and work with my students by establishing a sound relationships based on mutual trust. I believe that a sound understanding of basic math and science skills would have a great impact on the future accademic lives of individuals as well as in the real world when they grow up. I have extensive experience in working with children of apparently all age groups. As a University of Buea graduate with a bachelor of sciences degree in Chemistry and Botany I have a sound knowlege in Sciences and Mathematics. I have been a paraeducator at Mongomery County Public Schools (MCPS) Maryland for over three

Pamela S - Takoma Park, MD 20912 (30 mi) - Florida Writes Tutor - $42.00/hr.
The past two years I have been teaching Freshman Composition at Florida Atlantic University. I was required to teach critical thinking skills, writing, grammar, and reading. Previously, I taught 10th grade English (regular and honors) at Cypress Bay High School in Weston, FL. Before teaching high school I was a middle school Language Arts teacher (7th and 8th grade). With both my jobs in Broward County, I was required to work with my students on reading, writing, and grammatical skills. Furthermore, throughout my years of teaching I have been tutoring all ages and abilities. I am a born teacher. I truly love teaching and seeing my students learn. My philosophy is that all students are capable of learning at any level but some need more attention and different perspectives in order to achieve their goals. In my years of teaching I have worked with all levels and abilities which I b
