Political Science Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Goldenrod, FL

I'm currently a senior attending Winter Park High School. I have a slew of education and extracurricular related accolades, and have been commended highly for my skills in writing (both creative and professional). My transcript has a long history of Advanced Placement courses and my standardized exam scores are impressive to say the least least (30 ACT, 1800 SAT, multiple AP Exam credits). I actually don't have much experience as a tutor beyond helping classmates study, however throughout my experience in high school I've experimented with and adopted many avant-garde and unorthodox studying techniques and thought processes that have served gratuitously to my benefit, and I'm positive will serve yours as well.

I have tutored children in group and individual piano lessons. I have tutored them in math and social studies. I have spent over 20 years in business in the accounting field and prepared countless financial statements and income tax returns. I am skilled in all things mathematical. I also speak Spanish through over 9 years of instruction. I like to allow the student to read the material once and clarity any areas that need more explanation. Then I will allow them to answer questions from the material read and help them where needed to choose the correct answer and understand the reason for the answers. I like to reward a certain level of correct answers with points that can be redeemed for interesting small prizes. I also consider myself very patient and interested in the student having a strong foundation for future learning.

One of the few classes I wish I could retake in college. I have always approached a teaching lesson as a learning opportunity. Learning is a fundamental skill. If you don't have your basic fundamentals, your student will have difficulty advancing. So, I always start with basic fundamentals such as; note taking, study skills, and comprehension! All sciences demand the ability to link concepts together. Ex. cells make up tissues, tissues make up organs, organs make up organ systems,etc.....! By understanding the make-up of cellular structures and relating that to tissue functions the students can fully understand a subject. This proves true with all subjects. By impowering the student with good base fundamentals, my students find it easier to link concepts together. I obtained a B.S. in Biology, with a concentration in aquatic science, from Wittenberg University in 2006. During my und

I have always enjoyed teaching and helping others to learn. I don't believe in "I can't do it" or "I can't learn". I believe that anyone can learn anything as long as they're willing to learn and put an effort to do so. What is different is that some people have more ability than other to learn certain tasks, but eventually, everyone can learn. It is all a matter of adapting oneself to the student's need and ability to learn. My goal is to make the student learn what they set up their mind to learn in the first place, and help them improve their condition. It is very rewarding to see that you have made a difference in their lives. Having parents that place a great emphasis in achieving higher education, I graduated from high school with the age of 15 years old and was accepted in National Tsing Hua University, Taiwan, for the degree in Life Science Biology. While studying in Taiwan,

I have a way of perceiving the difficulty the student has, and am able to explain the material in a simple way that makes it easy for students to grasp. I have a good rapport with my student and have had several that have told me that I am the best teacher they have ever had(which didn't hurt my ego!!) I also have a good sense of humor which puts students at ease- and it is proven that a tense mind can not learn, only when the student loses their anxiety over the material will they absorb it! I have been tutoring for over 15 years both in students homes or at public locations such as coffee shops or the public library. My education and experience are broad. I was educated at "Ivy League" level schools and purposefully educated myself in a large variety of the humanities, which in essence all tie together. Basic courses up through most High School material outside of the Humanities ar

I have extensive experience as a k-12 and adult teacher of all subjects (excepting advanced math and science) and as a teacher of technology to all ages, including technophobes:) I offer specific subject tutoring, as well as project-based enrichment programs tailored to a student's interest. My experience is wide-ranging. I have taught home school groups in mixed age groups, created a wilderness eco-learning program in Hawaii, and managed a computer lab for middle/high school students that also trained teachers and developed technology-based curriculum. I love to teach:)

As an undergraduate I attended Elon University in North Carolina. During my tenure there I tutored at the local elementary school as well as with the Boys and Girls Club. Writing has been a very important part of my life since I was little. My father is an author with over 20 young adult books published and he instilled in me the passion to read and write from a young age. I still edit his books to this day. The reason I am involved in education is because I love the process of learning. Being a tutor is more than just telling someone what to do or how to do it; you must be friendly and you must let the person know that you care about their success. Seeing the expression on a students face when they "get it" is priceless. Tutors must be able to scaffold students, to help students incrementally until the student is capable of becoming an independent learner.

After finishing my degree in Computer Science, I felt that the education I obtained wasn't completely aligned with my ultimate goal as a professional, Video Game Developer. Video Games creation requires many different disciplines, usually combining art (Audio/Visual, theater) and science (Math, programming) to produce a highly immersive interactive experience. Having professional experience in multimedia production, creating Educational CD-ROMS for children, plus finishing my degree at Full Sail, has allowed me to teach Video Games at a university level and become part of the Game Developing community. My favorite moment in the classroom is right after some laughter occurs; students are open and receptive to more knowledge. Even better, their inhibitions are put aside for a second and they're unafraid to ask the questions they need. I like to be light-hearted and fun, while understanding

As a future physician, working with people I find is necessary in order to be as efficient in every way possible. In the last five years, I have enjoyed working with kids of all ages as a tutor to middle school kids in high school, and then a tutor to college kids when at Valencia, and then as a tutor for no child left behind as well as private tutoring while in college. I feel that I have a purpose. A purpose to change the world. Sounds impossible, probably is, but why not test the waters by helping a child or adult to feel happy in knowing that they do "get it". Every time I bring a smile or hope to someones face, I feel like I have helped to start a change that through time could evolve into something great. I have tutored Math, English, Psychology, Arts, Sciences, and more. I feel the best way to help others is to help yourself, I know through tutoring, I am not only helping myself,

Throughout my years of tutoring I have found that there are many different ways that people learn. Once you figure this out learning is easy and enjoyable. I first go over what my students have been doing to learn and study the material. Once we have established their individual learning style, we go over what they can do to improve in that subject and perhaps with the overall learning of any material. I want my students to feel comfortable with the material, to understand it on many levels, not just to memorize the information. I strive to annihilate the fear students’ feel of any subject they know little about or have problems understanding. I want to make a difference in how people learn and how they feel about learning difficult or different materials. While earning my degree in physics at the University of Central Florida I found that tutoring was an excellent experience for both my

I have dedicated my life to working with children from kindergarten to the college level. It is my belief that all students can learn if provided the tools to do so. The key to their learning is embedded in the way in which their specific learning needs are met. I believe in active participation by students through the use of hands on activities that allow for discovery and a constructive approach to learning. I am very easy going and patient but at the same time expect and encourage students to reach their fullest potential and to utilize what they have learned to critical think and apply what they have learned in new and different situations. I want students to seek their very best. As a professional educator I have taught for over 20+ years at all levels including the college level, I have learned to look for the very best in students and to encourage them to reach their fullest

I believe that authentic learning experiences are the most powerful. Each of us learns differently and for different reasons and we all have disabilities; some are just easier to see than others. Any true learning experience must begin with the educator understanding the learner. The purpose behind learning anything can not be dismissed using the rationale "because I said so". Still, I also believe that there is a skill set that we must all possess. Therefore, I believe that a curriculum should be followed but, in addition to a curriculum, an effective educator must be able to bring any lesson to life and insure that it is meaningful and memorable; only then can we be sure that the content was actually learned and retained.
