Law Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Hastings, FL

In accounting, finance and economics I believe using real life examples is a better way to get a student to understand principles. However, I do recognize that all students do have different learning styles and it is my job to adapt my methods to the manner in which a student learns best. I have spent my whole adult life working in the field of accounting and finance. I am a life long learner and believe in the power of education. I have been a CEO and COO of a publicly traded bank and am now employed as a VP of Project Management which gives me the flexibility to pursue teaching and tutoring. I am a licensed CPA in the State of Florida. I also teach accounting online for Rasmussen College.

I am a former attorney, currently in work-release. The undercapitalization of my practice kept me from being able to withstand a series of family financial disasters, and I stole to make ends meet. For this, I take complete personal responsibility. I have been a good, hard worker for my entire life, and I respectfully ask for a second chance. Bonded to $10,000.00.

I believe that all students can learn. It's just a matter of finding the instructional style that matches their learning style. I am a firm believer in the theory of multiple intelligences, developed by Dr. Howard Gardner and adapted to the education field by Thomas Armstrong. It's not how smart you are, but how are you smart! To me there is nothing better than seeing the lightbulb go on in students' eyes when they "get it." My job as a teacher is to figure out how to bring each individual student to that point and guide all of them to reach their fullest potential. I have 19 years experience as a high school teacher. In that time, I have taught several different English classes and reading. I have been a department chairperson, a reading coach, and have taught a variety of graduate level education courses to teachers as well. I was honored as Wentzville High School teacher of the

I took Spanish throughout elementary, middle, and high school. I then took two Spanish courses in college. I've travelled to Latin America on four occasions and did fieldwork for my MA dissertation in Spanish. My level of spoken and written Spanish is high enough for tutoring at lower to intermediate levels. I spent 10 months in Brussels, Belgium. While living there I shared a flat with two native French speakers. I also took private French lessons for 5 months. I was also able to carryout day to day activities such as getting/giving directions, shopping at the grocery store, and going to the laundromat using my French. My French skills are strong enough for tutoring only at the most basic levels. I like kids a lot and have been told several times that I have an uncanny ability to relate to the younger generation. My education philosophy is much like that of a trainer of ath

In addition to a B.A. in History and an M.A. in Legal studies, I completed (with an A for all) the 21 credit hours in education courses required to teach secondary education in Maryland. I then earned scores in the above-average range on all three sections of PRAXIS I: Academic Skills Assessments and recently passed the PRAXIS Social Studies Content Knowledge. Although my teaching experience has not been in a formal classroom, I have taught gymnastics to children and adult computer skills, sliding-seat rowing, calisthenics, and swing dancing. I am exceptionally conscientious, caring, and energetic and feel that my education, empathy, and desire to help others make me an excellent candidate for tutoring. I believe I would be a tremendous asset to your staff and am anxious to utilize the teaching skills I have learned to make a difference in students’ education.

I have always had a gift with teaching. I have conducted many training programs with the companies I have worked. I have taught college level management courses with Keiser University in Daytona. I am very gifted in Math and have tutored several students to assist them in understanding the importance of math in the real world. I am a believer in the old adage,” You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him drink.” I believe that it‘s the instructor’s job to try to motivate the student to learn the subject. The instructor need to teach the student that the information is important and worth the student’s time. If the student is not motivated to learn then the session will not be as productive.

I believe in using testing in varied, ongoing forms to drive instruction. I use student interest and favored learning styles as the core, but cross and reteach using multiple modalities so that my students enjoy the process and the outcome. For example, I have developed a core science program using historical biology to interweave physical, earth, space and biological sciences for the middle and high school grades. My goal as a teacher is to have my students develop a questioning, thinking independent mind that can support their thinking with data and creativity. Have taught all subjects k-8, and all English, general math, algebra, geometry, histories, and sciences 9-12, have worked at grad level as instructor and master's thesis supervisor, currently full-time teacher for hospital homebound (for ex. this year taught k,1,2,4,5,10,and 12th grades) and advisor for doctoral student.

The nature of my teaching style is to be highly adaptive to the needs of each specific student. As a teacher of students with various learning abilities or disabilities, I have focussed on individualized and highly varied approaches to learning. I have passion for teaching and empathy and compassion for my students. Their success is my fulfillment. I have a diverse background, having worked with a variety of student age groups and abilities. I have approximately three years of experience teaching Anatomy and Pathophysiology and Medical Law and Ethics at the college level. In addition, I have approximately three years of experience teaching high school English and one year of teaching Exceptional Students with learning disabilities. Likewise I have been an athletic coach for approximately fourteen years with experience working with athletes ranging in ages from elementary school to

Each child is different. I always try to notice and acknowledge what benefits each student, as I think this applies to all forms of teaching from academics to athletics. Getting on their level is what ultimately benefits the child from the get go and gains their interest. If I'm interested, then the child is interested. I do my best to make sure the child is setting their goals and doing their best to achieve them in the way and style for which they are best suited. I have two bachelors degrees, however, I believe it is my experience teaching children that has helped me develop a good sense on how to approaching teaching scenarios. I have years of experience teaching children in academics, music, and dramatic arts, as well as coaching basketball and teaching golf at the professional level.

My degree is in Financial Accounting. My teaching experience includes substitute teaching for high school level students in Computer Accounting, Business Math, Business English and Business Law. I taught all business classes in a position where the permanent teacher took a leave of absence for six months. I also volunteered at a senior center and taught computer classes. I have tutored college students in College Algebra and a student to take the CPA exam. At the present time I have piano students from the ages of seven to sixty-five. My eldest student is a retired principal. When a student needs tutoring, there is a breakdown in the understanding of the subject. As a teacher, I find out the individual student’s thinking process and make it click for that particular subject. Quite often it is just a small portion of the process that is missing or the process does not make sense to

My teaching style is different with each child. Some need more encouragement that others, more supervision, while others do better with an overview explanation followed by "hand off" approach, allowing their creative minds to think of the solution. I like to use practical applications wherever possible. One time, I was working with an 11 year old on fractions. With her parent's permission, I asked her to my home to help me make chocolate chip cookies. I deliberately did not use the "easy" measuring spoons or cups - I used the ones that forced her to figure out how many of a certain fraction would equal one whole. She did very well - and we enjoyed some wonderful cookies. After graduating Florida International University in 1987 with a bachelor degree in international relations, I attended the University of Idaho College of Law, graduating in 1990.

I find great joy in watching a child progress in their education. All children are capable of learning at their own pace, and through repetition. Your child will find success and ease in their academics through my assistance. I am patient and understanding, yet persistent. I firmly believe in encouraging a child to discover his/her strengths in order to overcome whatever obstacles may present themselves. I make learning fun by using everyday life siutations parallel to each equation. If more learning were hands-on, more students would be able to apply learned techniques to their situation at hand. As a college senior, I have accumulated countless hours towards tutoring and mentoring those in need. Whether it's Pre-K, Elementary, Junior High, High School and College students, I spend a great part of my life not just accomplishing goals, but taking the time to extend a hand and bringing th

I hold an AA in Liberal Arts with emphasis on computer science. I am currently in pursuit of BS in Biomedical at the University of North Florida. As a result I am well versed in most areas of general education. My mathematic skills are well honed; my scientific knowledge covers biology, chemistry, physics and technology. In addition, I am able to write effectively, clearly and correctly. I was a member of the honors program Edison College and now also at UNF. I have developed a love of learning that coincides with a love of teaching. I have an intuitive grasp of what an instructor is trying to accomplish. As a result I know how to target the key concepts in a way that combines the key ideas with peripheral ideas to produce not only a better grade, but a better understanding of the material.
