Lauren M. - Gainesville, FL 32601 (14.9 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $25.00/hr.
I have tutored for the SAT (and related PSAT) in the past. I have taken the PSAT myself and was a National Merit Scholarship Finalist. I am a big proponent of the theory of multiple intelligences and believe that each student has certain styles of learning that work best for them. I aim to help students figure out how they learn best. Once they realize where their strengths are, they can incorporate the concept into all of their studies, not just the subject for which I happen to be tutoring them. I have tutored a wide variety students on many subjects. I am most experienced tutoring high school students for the SAT. I worked with Let's Get Ready, a non-profit organization dedicated to preparing high school students for the SAT and their college search process. I typically tutored students for the Math section, but I am capable of tutoring for the Critical Reading and Writing sections as

I have 12 years tutoring experience at the college level.

Sean B. - Gainesville, FL 32608 (19.7 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $20.00/hr.
I'm a rising senior in high school who has been tutoring peers/coaching the math team at my high school for three years. Both my PSAT and SAT scores are in the 99+ percentile and include perfect scores of 800 in both the Mathematics and Writing Sections of the SAT. I also received a score of 800 in SAT Math Level 2. I have thoroughly studied the SAT/PSAT and can pinpoint exactly what the tests are asking for and how to raise your scores. I firmly believe anyone can raise his or her scores drastically with the proper techniques and guidance, as I have helped several people do so and have done so myself. I am also willing to tutor anyone who is interested in the following subject areas: Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, Statistics, Pre-Calc, and Calculus (up to the AP calc BC level or calc 2).
$20/hr. Contact me if interested and I will get in touch as soon as possible.
Thanks

Wenli S. - Saint Johns, FL 32259 (30.8 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $25.00/hr.
My lessons can range from private lessons to group lessons of no more than five at one time. I prefer to be very involved in my students' progress, and will readily explain any questions that they do not understand. My main strategy is basically to lay out the concepts that will be covered that day, go over several practice problems, and give three or four practice problems for the students to work on independently. For art students, I will demonstrate with explanation the concept that we will be covering in that lesson (be it portraiture basics or still life basics), draw diagrams with the steps clearly labeled, and have the student independently work on a similar piece which applies the same concepts. I will supervise the student's progress and correct any lasting errors, but I prefer to have the students produce an almost entirely independently produced piece each session. I have work

Howard S. - Jacksonville, FL 32207 (37.9 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $37.50/hr.
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 idea bui

Heather H - Keystone Heights, FL 32656 (6.6 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $36.00/hr.
Hands on teaching and kinesthetic learning are key to success in my mind. I love to involve the student's entire body in the learning process. From their senses to their movements to memory device techniques in the form of song or poem, using alternative methods of teaching seems more effective in the learning process. As a Cum Laude graduate from the University of Florida, I continue to hold a high level of discipline in every aspect of life. Whether it be at work, at home, or at school, I feel it is imperative to do your best no matter what the situation. Upon graduation at the age of twenty, I began teaching undergraduate courses for UF. This was an honor, but it was not challenging enough. It was not until I helped students with severe mental and physical disabilities that I felt fulfilled in my profession. Being able to teach student who are eager to learn, but have obstacles

Jeremiah G - Keystone Heights, FL 32656 (6.8 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $35.50/hr.
Every subject has its own teaching style, yet there are some consistencies throughout. I teach based on how the student learns. This may require adapting typical styles to meet the individual student's needs.
You or your child will benefit from my focus on repetition and consistency, yet at the same time my desire for a variety of learning techniques. I encourage every student to do his or her own best work before bringing it to me, then allow me to help enhance his or her work to help the student excel.
It is my firm belief that every student has the potential to excel with the right environment, style, and motivation. It is my goal to figure out what this is for you or your child and provide you the opportunity to do so. In every subject I am qualified to tutor I have taken high school, college, graduate, and/or professional courses and earned at least a "B+" (91%), with except

Rebecca D - Gainesville, FL 32609 (13 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I love teaching art to all age levels. I really enjoy it when I show someone an art technique, they learn it, and make it their own. When teaching art, I feel it very important to demonstrate a technique, discuss how the technique has been used in different cultures, and then for the student to mimic my actions. Once the technique has been mastered, the student can take the technique and use it in their own way.
As a math tutor, I work closely to find a method that clicks for the student. I am very patient, and I use various ways of solving a problem to find the one that the student can most understand. As an art teacher of over 15 years, I have taught painting, drawing, sculpture, ceramics, graphic arts, art history, and darkroom photography. I received my Bachelor of Arts degree in Fine Arts at Christopher Newport University and my Master of Arts degree in Teaching and Lear

elizabeth s - gainesville, FL 32653 (13.1 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I have taught Language Arts and Reading for 15 years at the middle school level. My Florida certification includes Middle School and ESOL endorsements. For the last six months, I have been employed as a tutor in the athletic program at the University of Florida. I am also pursuing a Master's Degree in English Education at this institution. My idea of a perfect classroom is one in which all students are actively involved. I believe in encouraging students to work together to create their own understandings of the subject matter and how it relates to their lives. It is important that students are able to apply school studies to the real world outside of the classroom.

Charles D - Gainesville, FL 32609 (13.2 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I have always had an inclination to teach. To me, there is something very exciting about conveying understanding of a concept to another person. I think I have a particular ability for identifying precisely what aspect of a problem a student does not understand and then elucidating that point. I think much instructional time is spent inefficiently in explaining what a student already understands and not explaining what he or she does not understand. This is why I believe engaging the student in a conversation is vital, helping them identify their difficulties so that I can address them specifically. I have always been an avid reader and writer, as well as a natural teacher. As early as middle school, I was tutoring my fellow classmates at the request of their parents. I studied Latin for five years, which provided an exceptional foundation for the study of English, which I pursued as my

Herbert P - Gainesville, FL 32641 (13.3 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $37.50/hr.
The teaching style I use is completely dependent on the particular student being taught. I'm a big fan of the adage 'Give a man a fish, and he will eat for a day. Teach a man to fish, and he will eat for the rest of his life'. My objective is to teach a child not only the material, but how they best learn so that they can teach themselves. I enjoy using applicable references that are relevant to the child so that they will more easily grasp the concepts. I believe a personalized approach works best. I have earned a bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering with a software focus along with a Sales Engineering minor. I was 3 credit hours away from both my Math and Business minors. In the last 5 years, I have tutored students in Basic Math, Algebra 1 and 2, Geometry, Calculus, Visual Basic, Physics, and Differential Equations.
