Tutoring By Sam! Core Studies Tutor with over 13 years Exp!

I gear my teaching style to the individual I am working with. In 14 years I have learned that even though a method may work for one student, it does not necessarily mean it will work for another. In the first few session I test a small variety of applicable teaching methods and adapt them as time goes on.
I have been working with students in both one-on-one and group settings for going on 14 years. I began tutoring groups of children at an inner city after school program in Language Arts and Reading Comprehension. I went into further training at my high school and became a designated math tutor for those in Pre-Algebra, Algebra I and Geometry. After high school I revisted my loved for tutoring at Jefferson County Community College where I tutored Reading Comprehension, Composition, and Study Skills. Throughout the years I have tutored a variety of students in various areas through ... read more

I believe that while students may forget specifics of what they are learning, they will never forget how teachers make them feel. I also belive that the best teachers are the ones that make themselves less needed the longer they teach specific studdents. I want to empower the students I teach to be able to learn and excell on their own in the future. I hope to make a difference by empowering the students I teach to learn to edcuate themselves bu giving them the skills they need.

A Little Bit About Me...

The thing I love most about teaching is opening up someones eyes to something new and seeing the "wow" look on their faces. Sometimes certain subject matter is not always easy for a person to learn. I've always appreciated the teacher that went out of their way with a great amount of patience to make sure I understood. I take a lot from the amazing teachers I've had and would hope to be able to pass that on.
I began my higher education at Tallahassee Community College in 1997. After receiving my AA Degree I transferred to F.S.U where I majored in Criminology with a minor in Spanish and graduated in 2003. Since that time, I've worked as a legal assistant/paralegal with different law firms in town. Recently, I decided to return to school and received my certificate in Massage Therapy.

I love using fun interactive games to help facilitate learning. Singing songs that get children to count and spell. Memorization games, like telephone or memory tag. Its my experience that the more engaged you keep students, the more they will retain information. In my 4 years experience as a camp counselor and tutor I have found that keeping an open mind and always spotting opportunities for children to learn and experience growth is the best style for teaching.
As a gifted student in my primary education, I always excelled in consuming the world around me through knowledge. I wanted to share my love of information with others. My favorite subject is Black and African History. I decided to major in those fields at Florida State University.

I love helping children reach their potential, seeing their eyes light up at learning something new. I believe any child can learn given the opportunity, tools, and a constructive and positive teacher. I would welcome the opportunity to help a child or children reach their full potential.

A Little Bit About Me...

For three years at Florida State University I was enrolled in an excellent teacher education program. At the end of the program I received a Bachelor’s Degree in Secondary Social Science Education. While at Florida State University I received three certifications, Social Science Education (6-12), Professional Educator for (All Grades) and Integrated Curriculum (5-9). Obtaining the Integrated Curriculum certification made it so I can be certified to mentor and tutor students in all major subjects. Since then I have worked with multiple young students on both strengthening their education and building character. I feel that I develop not only better students, but better young men and women.
Each student learns in their own way and sometimes that way is not in a classroom setting. A teacher to me is someone who has developed a way to make each student understand the subject matter. Th ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that to engage and educate children requires a personal, hands-on, and creative teaching style. I recognize that everyone learns differently. However, I believe that a child can learn anything if he/she sees the connection between the information and their daily life. I am patient and open-minded. I don't mind working hard for results. The best way to cover information is by showing all sides of it. I believe in developing trust within the teacher-student relationship. I try to make the learning environment as comfortable and relaxed as possible.
My experience with children and education are linked through my travels. I worked in a day care in Asheville North Carolina. I also volunteered at a mosque when I lived in London. I visited many schools when I went to Morocco. I am a student at Florida State University, working for a double-major in Creative Writing and Middle ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that the relationship between student and teacher is one between equals, and that each must actively work together in order to accomplish a student's goals. This educational relationship and teaching style is heavily influenced by the Fine Arts and other creative pursuits that also maintains a strong hold on basic concepts in every subject. My role as a tutor, therefore, is to find each student's particular learning style in order to communicate fundamental knowledge in a subject, while also giving them the critical thinking and problem solving skills that will allow them to grow and enlarge their educational experience far beyond any single tutoring session.
