Statistics Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Fort Myers Beach, FL

Practice-Theory-Practice. I try to stay very focused on doing examples and practice problems. Some theory is necessary for a deep understanding, but it has to come at the right time. The student first needs some practice or at least an attempt to appreciate the process involved in solving a problem. Then I try and bring to light any issues and cover some theory. Then we do more practice. I helped many students who had previously given up hope to pass the CLAST exam and I taught the math portion of an SAT prep course through FGCU's CAA. I tutored LD students through Adaptive Services at FGCU I taught labs at FGCU for intermediate and college algebra, statistics and business calculus. I taught AP Calculus and AP Statistics at a private school. I taught Pre-calc and Algebra II through Lee County School District.

My experience has been primarily with high school students. Sometimes I have to present a concept in several different ways before a student can understand. I present several different approaches to understanding a particular function and enjoy imparting knowledge to my students. I tutored students for 3 years while living in St Pete Beach, FL from 1995-1998. I specialized in mathematics at any level but also taught chemistry and physics. For the last 3 years I have been tutoring here in Lee county, in math and physics and helping 2 older students prepare for GED mathematics

As a non-traditional student, my college experience awarded me many advantages, as well as, many opportunities to uncover hidden skills. I began tutoring for Student Support Services while attending community college in Southwest Virginia. I worked with adults, disabled and traditional students in many subject areas. This led to establishing the Eagle's Wing Mentoring Program while attending Florida Gulf Coast University for the first two years. I later transferred to the Office of Adaptive Services where I am currently still working with a wide variety of students. 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 tut

I have been teaching on a part time basis as an Adjunct Professor at Edison State College (previously Edison Community College, Edison College) for the last 10 years as the Surveying instructor in a vocational oriented program. I have received several certifications through the Florida Dept. of Education for middle and high school grade levels. My experience teaching kids has been as a youth coach in several sports. I enjoy the experience of sharing my knowledge with others and have a special interest in the success of children, as the father of three and a grandfather of one. Helping build a solid foundation for youngsters and young people is very important to everyone's future. I always have my student’s best interest at heart. I like an interactive and experiential approach to teaching where the students share in the process, rather just given material to digest and be tested on what

I believe the best way to teach is to relate the subject to the children. A child may not understand fractions but if you ask them to divide up a candy bar, they know how many pieces they want to split it in to and how many they want. I believe that listening is the key to teaching. A good teacher and a good listener is the difference between a child attending school and a child excelling in school. While living in Japan, I taught English to the Japanese nationals and was a teacher's aide in the Department of Defense Dependent's Schools in the special needs department. I worked directly with middle school children who had ADD, ADHD as well as other physical handicaps including Cerebral Palsy. I have 3 children that I have had to help with their homework and projects throughout the years. I enjoy working with children and believe education is the key to developing responsible adults

My teaching style would be the same way I teach my son. I give him the opportunity to learn. I work with him. I put the time in to help him. I take the time to help him, and if he get a problem wrong I help him correct it. I have been working in the banking field for over 15 years since I graduated with a degree in business. In Jan. 2009 I was laid off from a banking job for the second time. I am doing a career change to teaching. I have been hired as football coach at Estero High School, I will be working as a teacher this fall 2009. I have been fingerprinted by Lee County School and I am cleared to be employed. I have a son that is 8 years old I help with his home work every night. Last year in the second grade they wanted him to stay back, I said I would help him. This year in second grade he is making E & S Honor Roll.

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.

I think learning and discovering is a "magical" experience. My memories of the first time I learned about the solar system and space exploration was mind-boggling. That is what I seek to bring to students--to find their interests and develop them so they have the drive to learn. I sincerely believe the process of learning and interacting with adults or mentors is how we learn social skills and the art of personal interaction that will ultimately determine our level of success. Tutoring is more than helping students achieve academic excellence; if done well, it's about instilling habits for success. As a United States Air Force Academy graduate, I believe in the value of leadership, quality teaching and training. I have a BS in Basic Sciences; my strengths are in math, science and writing. I have strong spatial orientation skills and have written analyses of world military operations

Communication of ideas is key to helping the student learn what is being taught to them. If your student understands and grasps ideas-concepts-formulas, reinforce them with exercises. But you must be keenly aware if they have difficulty, then you must help them to overcome problems by solving problems and awakening the power of thought. My name is James and I am currently working for AXA-Advisors on a non-contractual basis enrolling public school employees into 403(b) retirement savings plans. The school year now-ending frees time for me to pursue a summer tutoring job for more personal income. I am interested in your position as a math/finance tutor. I am a 2010 graduate of Florida Gulf Coast University with a BS in Finance.

I enjoy the challenge of bringing the best out of a student's ability. My demeanor in the classroom is very calm and patient, which creates a relaxed atmosphere. I am a firm believer in keeping the students involved during my class and will frequently call on students to participate in solving problems. Every student has the ability to do well in school. I think it is just a matter of how badly they want to succeed and as a teacher I try to tap into their potential. I graduated from Florida State University with a bachelor's degree in secondary math education. During my internship in the fall of 2006, I taught Algebra 2 Honors and Geometry. Upon graduation, I was hired to teach Algebra IB at Lakeland High School and taught there for the spring semester of 2007. Due to my desire to be closer to my family in Charlotte County, I attended the Lee County Job Fair in April of 2007 and w

I taught for 8 years in a Title 1 Elementary school in North Fort Myers. The population was and still is over 90% free and reduced lunch. I taught 4th and 5th grades for 4 years and then taught science as an exploratory to all of the students for 4 years. I developed my curriculum for all grade levels in science, connected them to the building block and Sunshine State Standards, and created assessments. Currently, I am teaching Life Science to 7th graders at a Cape Coral middle school which is 5 miles form my home. I taught Science for 6th, 7th and 8th ESE students who had learning disabilities there for two years and ESOL students last year. I like to teach science because it gives me many opportunities to teach using my preferred styles. I like to use cooperative learning, have the students investigate questions, and use hands on activities with real world examples. I try to build rel

My style is to give detailed examples and descriptions and then let the students try to work through the problems I have selected for them. Throughout a given session I coach the students by answering all their questions along the way and providing positive feedback. Through this method I hope for each student to increase their proficiency in the material by the end of the session. Each new session is begun with a review of the previously learned material. My style, can be best summed up as patient, methodical and constructive. As a Chemical Enigineering graduate, I was exposed to many courses in higher level mathematics as well as all subject matter ranging from physics, chemistry, organic chemistry, biochemistry, and biology. In addition, I have written many papers and essays, both scientific and artistic in nature. I have even been published in a scientific research journal as a co-au
