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

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 undergraduate studies, I tutored elementary students in math

Every student has strengths and weaknesses, and these should be determined for efficient tutoring. I believe in helping the student to learn and making sure they have the knowledge and help to understand the material themselves. I have eight years of tutoring experience for students ranging from second grade to high school seniors. This tutoring has been in a variety of topics, from elementary phonics to high school geometry to handwriting. I have also had experience in tutoring for standardized tests such as the SAT, ACT, and FCAT.

I am currently a general music teacher at Samsula Academy, an elementary school in New Smyrna Beach, FL. I teach general music classes to students in grades K-5, as well as chorus and band. I received my Bachelor's degree from Marywood University in Scranton, PA and began my Master's studies at University of Central Florida. I currently aspire to study Irish traditional music in Ireland in the near future, and would continue to offer online tutoring services during those studies. At Samsula Academy, I offer private music lessons. I have mostly taught piano, but I also have taught trumpet, trombone, drums, flute, clarinet, saxophone, and violin. As a part of my undergraduate studies, I took methods courses in all band and orchestra instruments, so I am trained to teach most anything. I also have experience assisting in the elementary classrooms in reading, writing, and math, and preparing

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:)

My teaching style adapts to the students current level of knowledge. I always model 2 or 3 problems step by step before asking the student to try a problem. A student is comfortable knowing that I have "their backs" and won't let them be frustrated for long. This gives a student confidence to try problems on their own. I taught in two public high schools in Orange and Osceola Counties in the Central Florida area for 5 years where I earned the Professional Educators Certificate to teach mathematics 6 - 12. For the past 10 years, I have been teaching at a Huntington Learning Center while privately tutoring students from the area middle, high school, and community colleges.

I aspire to improve myself in hopes of improving other. I have experience in the classroom, leadership, and most importantly teamwork. I have worked with students (tutoring- elementary to high school) and have taught and substituted for middle and high schools. My areas of interest are math and science. I teach by the theory that every child is not alike but longs to be on the educational level. Although some students have the ability to go straight to the answer, others take the scenic route. I pride myself in being able to not only find the alternative(s), but to implement the alternative(s).

Teaching is an art. It can and does vary for each individual. When I teach, I first attempt to assess what type of learner the child is. What causes the child to become a sponge? My goal is to provide the best understanding of the material possible. I firmly believe that with a if you allow the person to do the work and just simply facillitate them, they will come to realize they more than likely know alot more than they originally thought. This process helps to boost self-esteem which can at times are shown by the grades of the students after our tutoring sessions and even during. 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 c

While earning my degree in physics at the University of Central Florida I found that tutoring was an excellent experience for both my students and me. I have tutored many different subjects including math(from algebra to differential equations), astronomy, physics, chemistry and biology. I taught middle school students through presentations of physics in films. I also aided my student in their research papers and power point presentations as I feel comprehension and writing skills are an important part of science. I truly enjoyed doing this and hope to continue tutoring and teaching. 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 wh

My philosophy to teaching and tutoring is to find what way that particualr person best learns and then approaching the subject that way. It must be broken down to tangible concepts that are easy to understand. I believe it takes patience and dedication to each child. My goal is to invest into children so thay can learn. I have a better understanding of grammar, English, literature, and biology. I have tutored studens in lower level maths, algebra, grammar, English, and psychology.

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

Over the past four years, I have been teaching both high school and middle school level mathematics (Pre-Algebra, Algebra, Geometry, Algebra 2, and Pre-Calculus) at both regular and honors levels. With a bachelors degree in Business, I have made myself useful as tech support for both students and faculty, and with a masters in Education specializing in secondary mathematics, I have extensive knowledge of both curriculum and the tools to break topics down. In addition, I have tutored in chemistry, basic sciences, Spanish, some English, and almost every level of 6-12 mathematics. My teaching style is a combination of traditional methodologies, and more current ideals of classroom participation. I like to keep my students active, involved, and engaged. I try to accomplish this goal by putting the ball in their court, so to speak. I believe that learning is an active process, not a pass

I enjoy tutoring because I believe that every child could benefit from one-on-one instruction. Since every child learns differently, it is difficult to reach every child in the regular classroom setting. When I tutor, I figure out what type of learner the student is and I work with him/her to find the best method of learning for them. Academic success is not only determined by intellectual ability, but also the ability to produce quality work in a timely fashion. With the help of a tutor, a child can reach their full potential. Throughout my academic career, I have had a myriad of success. I have consistently achieved high grades in every subject throughout school and have received many awards. I graduated from Wellesley College with a degree in Classical Civilization and Art History, but I excelled in several subjects, such as biological sciences and English. Because of this success, I

I create a learning-centered environment that is a welcoming, comfortable, and encouraging place in which my students feel safe enough to explore and share their thoughts and observations of the world. I consistently communicate my interest in and enthusiasm for the course material by demonstrating the real-world application of the skills we are learning and by illustrating how much I respect and value my students’ thoughts and ideas. I believe the old authoritarian model of classroom teaching, in which the student is a passive receptacle, creates a threatening environment that allows for very little room for growth. I follow a more democratic approach to teaching that is participatory in nature and promotes active learning. I have over ten years of college teaching experience and have taught a wide range of subjects, including English composition, English as a second language, remedial
