Although I have a well-rounded education, most of my knowledge and work experience is in mathematics (algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and calculus plus the related fields of accounting, computers, and engineering). My college education at Purdue University was interrupted due to financial reasons, but I returned to Lake-Sumter Community College at night while working full time and earned an AA degree. I know how important education is! I believe I am a natural teacher when it comes to mathematics and related fields - I helped my fellow students in high school during study halls, tutored through the National Honor Society, was my son’s private tutor, and assist my co-workers with their accounting and computer skills.
I am fascinated with the concept that the more senses you utilize in teaching the better the child learns and retains what was taught. Some children respond to v ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Throughout my experience tutoring students, I have learned that everyone has a unique learning style. No single rule applies to teaching someone. I spend time figuring out how a student learns and then adjust my style to their needs. After tutoring students for the past two years, I have learned that many kids have the ability to excel in school, and I enjoy helping them acquire the drive to learn.
As a graduate in the world of technology, I believe education never ends. Things change constantly therefore we must continue to educate ourselves. In addition, I have volunteered with high school juniors and seniors to help them through courses such as math, science, computers, and English in their preparation for college. While in college, I also tutored classmates in statistics, algebra, and technology courses. Beyond that, I have learned valuable lessons about teaching others in the ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate, I understand the struggles each individual student may endure throughout their course work. Throughout my years as a student I have worked diligently and now applying to master's and PhD programs for neurological psychology. During the last 5 year, in high school and throughout college I have tutored others that needed help in psychology, algebra, statistics, geometry, and microbiology.
The best way for a person to learn depends on the person, of course. It is well known that people have different leaning styles that work best for them. The best approach for a tutor is to learn which learning style fits the student best. Everything can take into account, for example lighting of the room or even background noise. All students regardless of age should be able to succeed and its a privilege to help students that want to reach their top potential

Every student has the capability to succeed given that the conditions foster and nourish that success. Providing educational tools to the student in a higher education setting is critical to the independence and empowerment of the student. As an instructor, one must be cognizant of the fact that every teaching experience is an opportunity for professional growth and delivering instruction is a reciprocal process. Instilling in students the expectation of excellence has a pre-requisite that the instructor model by way of organization, preparation, enthusiasm, trust, and content expertise; inherently, upholding an effectual instructional leadership role. Teaching must be conducted with passion in order to awaken learning; perhaps, this is why we’ve moved to a classroom without walls. I believe that I exercise instrumental ways of connecting with others and am skillful at building constitue ... read more

I believe each child learns in their own way. It is the job of the instructor to facilitate the child's learning. Patience is key and a comfortable pace.

My teaching style is quite universal in such that I believe in hands-on learning. I love teaching and working with all types of students. I am very patient, polite, and understanding of the needs of students who are trying to understand math. My goal is to provide a service where my teaching style will help them discover a math experience like never before. I believe all children and students can learn once given the opportunity to. My philosophy is to promote positive thinking and to let all children succeed in math.
As a mathematics graduate, I have strived to teach and tutor mathematics in such a way that everyone could have a general understanding of it. I have earned a BA in mathematics, which has given me the opportunity to gain an understanding of how to make math an enjoyable subject. Many people that I have spoken to do not like math. I have made it a goal of mine ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have over 20 years experience teaching mathematics at the community college and university levels. I have also worked as a tutor at the Mathematics Laboratory and the Academic Success Center for Okaloosa-Walton Community College. I have worked as a private tutor on numerous occasions in the past. Most recently, I worked as a tutor for a private school in the Dominican Republic where I tutored eleventh graders in pre-Calculus.
From my own experiences as a student I have come to the opinion that the most valuable educational accomplishment one can achieve is to “learn how to learn”. This seems to be a state of mind, an epiphany if you will, which hopefully will be realized at some point in the course of an individual’s intellectual development. Such a state of mind is not usually due to the efforts of a particular instructor, nor is it the result of having taken a certain class. R ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My experience teaching children started in the water. That is a difficult place to start as many children fear the water. I quickly learned that individual students learn in different ways and at different paces. After studying Marine Biology in an academic setting I finally became able to share my passion for science and knowledge for math with students in a way that enabled me to not only share knowledge, but motivate students to become passionate about the subjects I find so interesting. I've been a professional full time Middle School Science teacher for two years and look forward to continue sharing my experiences and knowledge with students in various settings. As I've learned through hands-on experience as well as through formal training, patience and positive reinforcement are the best ways to get results and help children succeed in any area. Combine those two qualities in ... read more

I taught both general education and exceptional special edcation students who have been well below grade and reading level as a tutor and as a subsitute teacher in elementary education.I worked in elementary education for 3 years and have been tutoring for 2 years. As a late bloomer in education, I worked these areas of education until I finished my Bachelor's Degree and presently working toward a Master's in Education.
teaching children to read and read more fluentely is the teaching approach I find necessary to meet academic achievement. I beleive a child's determination to learn to read and learn is directly effected by the approach of the educator that is providing the learning experience. The challegnge of finding literature where students connect helps them discovery more about word strengths and weakness as well as their surroundings and experiences.I believe children can ex ... read more

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 child left behind as well as private tutoring while in college. I feel that I have a purpose. A purpose to change the world. Sounds impossible, probably is, but why not test the waters by helping a child or adult to feel happy in knowing that they do "get it". Every time I bring a smile or hope to someones face, I feel like I have helped to start a change that through time could evolve into something great. I have tutored Math, English, Psychology, Arts, Sciences, and more. I feel the best way to help others is to help yourself, I know through tutoring, I am not only helping myself, ... read more

I prefer to work with children who have learning disabilities and/or with a dislike for education. I find that my teaching style is interesting to this particular type of student. I acknowledge the childs dismay in learning and I allow them to help me to adjust the teaching material to a teaching style that best suits the childs learning style. Science and english are subjects that many children don't enjoy. I make it much easier for them to learn the subject and then we expound thier knowledge from there.
I graduated from UCF with a Bachelors in Communicative Disorders (speech therapy). I love english and science and found this to be a perfect mix. I worked with children with language delays in group settings and also tutored children individually. I am currently in the process of obtaining my teaching certificate in science and working towards my masters degree.
