I have extensive experience as a k-12 and adult teacher of all subjects (excepting advanced math and science) and as a teacher of technology to all ages, including technophobes:) I offer specific subject tutoring, as well as project-based enrichment programs tailored to a student's interest. My experience is wide-ranging. I have taught home school groups in mixed age groups, created a wilderness eco-learning program in Hawaii, and managed a computer lab for middle/high school students that also trained teachers and developed technology-based curriculum.

My primary aim in tutoring students is to assess exactly where they are academically, including reading level and math skills. Then I teach to their exact level. I help them to set up realistic goals and strive to meet those goals. Encouraging students and helping them to see their progress is a big part of their feeling satisfied that their efforts are showing dividends. I have worked with both the extremely bright, gifted students as well as those with learning disabilities so I understand the importance of proper pacing and the use of various modalities for successfully tutoring each individual. I have always endeavored to excel academically and so sought after and received a top-level education at Duke University. Having a love of language and having a desire to be able to teach at all levels, I obtained an MA in English from the UNC-G. I have had 43 years of teaching and tutoring at

I actually don't have much experience as a tutor beyond helping classmates study, however throughout my experience in high school I've experimented with and adopted many avant-garde and unorthodox studying techniques and thought processes that have served gratuitously to my benefit, and I'm positive will serve yours as well. I'm currently a senior attending Winter Park High School. I have a slew of education and extracurricular related accolades, and have been commended highly for my skills in writing (both creative and professional). My transcript has a long history of Advanced Placement courses and my standardized exam scores are impressive to say the least least (30 ACT, 1800 SAT, multiple AP Exam credits).

I have always approached a teaching lesson as a learning opportunity. Learning is a fundamental skill. If you don't have your basic fundamentals, your student will have difficulty advancing. So, I always start with basic fundamentals such as; note taking, study skills, and comprehension! All sciences demand the ability to link concepts together. Ex. cells make up tissues, tissues make up organs, organs make up organ systems,etc.....! By understanding the make-up of cellular structures and relating that to tissue functions the students can fully understand a subject. This proves true with all subjects. By impowering the student with good base fundamentals, my students find it easier to link concepts together. I obtained a B.S. in Biology, with a concentration in aquatic science, from Wittenberg University in 2006. During my undergraduate studies, I tutored elementary students in math

I sincerely believe that I have the ability to draw on an individual student's strengths. By having goals that are clear and objectives that help the student sense progress and success, I work with students to take them from where they are to the next place for them to be. Many students have told others that I am one of their favorite teachers. I believe this is because my students know I care, and that I enjoy them as individuals. I have been a well respected teacher in the state of Maine for 18 years. My experience has been in elementary education, teaching middle school language arts and social studies, and also training and mentoring teachers to use technology in their classrooms. I currently have my Florida certification and if the opportunity presents itself, would consider a full time teaching position here in the Sunshine state. I would enjoy tutoring in all subjects, and bel

During my time as an undergraduate student at New York University I tutored a wide range of subjects to students with varying abilities. My experience ranges from tutoring reading skills to elementary school children through the America Reads program, to teaching illiterate and non-English speaking adults basic math and literacy skills under Literacy Partners, Inc., and helped prepare high school students for the reading and math sections of the SAT through the Let's Get Ready program. I believe tutoring is best done in small goups, ranging anywhere from four to twelve students per class. Due to the large descrepancy of abilities between students, I believe it is important to modify lesson plans over the course of class. I always emphasize hands-on learning and real life examples as essential when learning new concepts. It can not be stressed enough the importance of flexibility when

I find that incorporating creative and fun learning techniques into academic lessons greatly improves student motivation. I enjoy learning the strengths and interests of the student in order to create opportunities to help them reach their full potential. I believe in using positive reinforcement and natural incentives in the learning process. My experience has taught me that students need to know the boundaries for classroom behavior. I believe this can be done in a positive, guiding fashion that leads to mutual respect of both teacher and student. Activities and projects help bring learning to life, so I enjoy making decisions together with the student which projects they would like to create. For example, we may create the solar system or learn to do a "Landscape" painting. As a Social Worker, I have gained many skills in working with people. My field has allowed me to gain exp

My teaching style varies with the needs of the learner. Having been trained to assess the primary modality of a learner (visual, oral/aural, kinesthetic or tactile), I can plan activities and approaches that will best use the student's strengths to overcome challenges. I think humor is very important in learning and teaching. I work well with students who are able but resistant to learning, and those who have a particular challenge that they will admit. Because I believe that everyone can learn something, and no one can learn everything, I focus on helping students win at learning. I try to teach students how to learn, as well as mastering content, so that they are prepared no matter what the content area might be. I have been teaching children since I was a child myself, first in community settings, and then in church and later, in elementary and middle schools. I train teachers for chu

I am young and energetic with the ability to engage students. I have been told on numerous occasions that I make previously difficult subjects accessible to those that thought that it was not "their thing". I believe that all students have their own method of learning, and their success is dependent on how well an educator can adapt to their style. I am very flexible and innovative in creating lesson plans. I am patient, friendly, enthusiastic, and have an overwhelming love of teaching. Having earned a B.S. in Physics/Astrophysics and as an upcoming graduate from the Florida Institute of Technology Master's program in Space Sciences, I have an outstanding background in physics, mathematics, and other physical sciences. I also have a wide range of teaching experience, including high school Earth Science, middle school biology, and undergraduate physics laboratories. Within the last

I believe that my opportunities and experiences in life both personally and in the education arena have prepared me to work successfully with students. I have always believed that letting students learn by doing and sometimes failing gives them a chance to learn how to adapt to life’s situations. In my vocational programs it was important to let the student’s personality and learning style surface before I could adapt a program to meet that student’s learning style. I feel I have a strong sense of what makes kids click and I know I would be an asset to many kids struggling in today’s classroom settings. After earning my BS degree in Vocational Education at North Carolina State University, I received my first teaching position with an alternative education program working with at-risk students. The next year I received a position teaching in a regular school environment teaching and desig

I took every math course offered by a 4 year college, student taught for one 6 week session, and took some educational courses. After home educating my 4 children for 17 years, I returned to school to complete an AA degree in liberal arts and a BA degree in sociology. I now work as a math teacher working with children who range in age from 9-17 and have special needs. I never give up on a child or an adult. I recently tutored a law enforcement official to help him understand and pass algebra. He didn't think anyone could help him. The schools told me my son would never learn to read or write. He is my only child out of four who reads lengthy books for pleasure. Everyone has a different style of learning. My teaching methods I alter to suit those needs. I spent three years trying to help my dyslexic son learn to read one sentence. I have patience and I love helping people. I am also

I am extremely passionate about Mathematics education. I believe that Math can be fun and accessible to every student. My goal is to help students to understand why the answer is true because this is the only way they can comprehend the concepts to carry them forward. I use an inquiry based approach combined with thorough explanations and example problems. I am a recent graduate of the University of South Florida with two degrees in Mathematics and Statistics and two minors in Business and Music. I began tutoring my junior year of college and worked with college students in all levels of math, statistics, and business. I have tutored high school students in the classroom through the AVID program as well as in an online classroom setting. These experiences covered all high school level mathematics classes. I have participated in several training programs in inquiry based learning. I am
