I am very passionate about the job career I have chosen at the University of Florida. I take pride in being a highly qualified educator by being exposed to the best practices to teach in the classroom. I want each child to become life long learners and set them up for success in the outside world. I have experience teaching lessons in different teaching styles. I know the importance of being patient with students and finding the best way that they can learn something. My goal as a tutor is to help your child learn skills that they can apply to different subject areas. I truly want the children who I tutor to have fun learning.

I am currently enrolled in the graduate engineering program at the University of Florida, in which I plan to graduate in the spring of 2012. I enjoy working with people and I have a strong background in numerical analysis. I have taken the GRE, ACT, and the SAT. Scores were high above the national average for math and at about the average for the written portion. I do have experience in writing research papers and laboratory reports, all in the field of civil engineering. I love seeing people understand something once I explain it to them in a way that they can understand it. I also love working with kids and teenagers because I believe that if we have a positive influence on young people they will grow up to be the leaders that our nation needs. My teaching style is geared at making people think. Students don't learn when they are spoon fed their education but when they are lead in the

I will graduate from the University of Florida in April 2010 with a BA in Biology, which required me to take up to Calculus 1 as well as Analytical Chemistry and Physiology classes. I have excelled in courses requiring numerical analysis and have experience teaching and tutoring, both in academics and athletics. Over the past 7 years, I have tutored peers in College Algebra, Trigonometry, Biology, Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry, and have given horseback riding lessons. Because I learn best from application and hands-on problem solving, I incorporate games, diagrams, metaphors and stories into my teaching. I am patient, fun, and organized. I enjoy leading an individual to discover not only the answer, but also the method to solve similar problems. I believe study skills and time management are the keys to academic success and strive to help my students develop habits that will carry t

I have excellent interpersonal people skills. I have a great passion for children and a sincere desire to help them learn. I was allowed the privilege to teach elementary, middle ,and high school as a substitute teacher on an as needed basis in the previous school year. I love to teach but I really love to see children of all ages learn. I believe that all children can learn no matter their individual challenges. I prefer to work one on one with children or in a small class setting.

I love teaching and working with young minds. I believe anyone can learn and meet his or her potential if he or she is given the opportunity. I am patient, easy going, and considerate to the needs of the learner. I hope to make a difference in a student's life and I am available to help you find academic success. As a graduate of Southwestern College, I was very much driven by a high level of excellence in education. While on active duty in the military, I completed my BS in Human Resource Development and I received Magna Cum Laude honors. I have learned extensive grammatical skills due to writing research papers and reports in various areas of study. During the last eight years of my military career I have counseled Sailors in pursuing a college education and tutored several of these same Sailors in English and mathematics.

I keep an open mind that most children learn in different ways. I try to provide lots of different ways of learning the same subject. I have a background in Anthropology and have traveled extensively throughout the globe and feel that it is my duty to make my teaching style multicultural and to make sure that no one is falling through the cracks. I try to laugh and smile a lot and find that students are more able to open up to me when I do. I always try to lead by example and do everything that I expect my students to do. It is very important to have high expectations for the students and to let them know what those expectations are. I was enrolled in the Master's Program for Elementary Education at the University of Florida and volunteered over 300 hours in the public school system. I have only one year left before obtaining my advanced degree should I decide to return to school.

Learning of any form comes from experience. I am willing as a tutor to help bring learning to a personal level for the student, making connections with their everyday lives and creating unique ways for the students to remember and retain the material being taught. I consider my approach to study to be that of patience, perseverance, and positivity. Students should be rewarded positively for grasping concepts that they are having difficulty with because too often in our schools small achievements are overlooked, and a few encouraging words can often make the difference between success and failure. If you give the student a reason to desire success, I believe they will find a way to make it possible. As a high school student, I spent time volunteering for a developmental learning center working with children who had mild to severe handicaps. While I found it to be a physically, as well as
