I have a bachelor's degree in psychology and am very knowledgeable on the subject. My master's degree is in epidemiology, which required me to take several courses in biostatistics, so I have a good handle on statistics as well, from the basics to linear and logistic regression. I also have experience using statistical software packages, including SAS and SPSS.

I have always excelled in school. My master's degree GPA is 3.8. my undergraduate degree GPA is 3.85. As a retired marine officer, I have had many opportunities to teach in a military environment. In addition, I served as the School Liaison Officer for the U. S. Naval Base Guantanamo Bay School system for 3 years.

I achieved an AA degree at Florida Community College at Jacksonville. I am currently continuing my education at Florida State University where I am pursuing a Bachelors Degree in Biology. I will graduate in Spring of 2010. After, I will continue to Dental School to become a dentist.
I enjoy teach with all different age levels. Most recently, I taught 4th grade science through the FSU Teach Program. It was fun and really showed me how to teach students and make the lessons engaging and fun. Its important to keep the child focused. My goal is to make sure a student learns something new everyday that she/he will remember.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am currently a senior at FSU, due to graduate this fall 2010, with a dual major in philosophy, minor in English; and political science, minor in psychology. After I complete my degree I hope to go on to graduate school and law school. Where I intend to focus my research and efforts in the field of civil and social advocacy. I believe that the only way to a better future for humanity is education. Due to the rigorous reading and writing requirements of my studies I have developed excellent skills both in verbal and written communication. For the past several years while I worked to complete my degrees I tutored fellow classmates in the areas of statistics, psychology, English, philosophy, natural sciences and social studies.
Having a minor in psychology gives me a unique approach to teaching and dealing with children. I have taken several classes dealing with human cognitive and ... read more

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. This is where I feel I differentiated myself from my classmates and colleagues. I have been successful with my students because I take the time to get to know a student’s strengths, weaknesses and interests. If my student is excited to come talk to me about one of their hobby’s, that means to me they are excited to come learn and grow as a student and a person. Most recently as a College Reach Out Program (CROP) mentor I have developed un-motivated students into happy and driven students and to me there is no greater gift.
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 ... read more

I am a very hands on and visual teacher that believes the best way to learn is by seeing and doing things yourself. In order to provide the best teaching expereince I would teach through multiple examples and putting difficult subject matter into a context the student can understand and visualize. I believe in working with each student to develop a system that works best for the individual, which will give them the tool to learn more easily in the future.
While obtaining my Master's degree I had the chance to study many different subjects as well as tutor student from Kindergarten to undergraduates in many areas of study.

A Little Bit About Me...

I teach in the hope that students will discover the wonders of knowledge for themselves and take that experience with them wherever they go. I use analogy and humor to give insight and make facts interesting. I relate to people by understanding what matters to them. I build interpersonal rapport as a counselor would, but discipline people's minds and behaviors when necessary. I encourage people to follow their joys and work to improve their lives passionately.
I’m a 2007 Masters graduate in Communication, concentrating in OD and interpersonal communication. As a paralegal I trained business people about legal topics and legal people about how to do their job. As an instructor for Princeton Review I worked with a world class test prep course. As a sub in Montgomery County MD I was a preferred choice of Reading and Social Studies teachers in the schools I served. I developed the ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a newlywed and young mother, I decided to pursue an education degree at the University of Florida. I maintained a 3.85 grade point average. While at the University, I discovered a passion for helping children reach their educational goals. I have spent the last seven years instructing my children. I have also been involved in Supplement Educational Services. I currently qualify for certificates in special education (k-12) and elementary education (k-6).
I believe that all children are special and have unique learning needs. There is nothing better than watching a child have an "ah-ha!" moment. Sometimes a child (or an adult!) needs a little help to make that connection though. I enjoy the challenge of finding what works for each child. I am a creative individual and take the time to research and experiment with different teaching methods. I believe in positive reinforcement and ... read more

More About This Tutor...

After graduating from Marymount Manhattan College with my BA in psychology, I began tutoring mathematics and psychology for their tutoring center. Having great success tutoring students, I was given the opportunity to teach a select group of incoming freshmen who were struggling in their college algebra class. Four out of my 5 students doubled their pre and post placement test scores and had the highest range of scores in the entire program. I have tutored from pre-algebra through pre-calculus and psychology at the college level as well as teaching college algebra and a GRE math prep class.
I love tutoring and finding different ways for the students to understand the topic. I like to make math not only understandable for my students, but also enjoyable. Everyone should be able to feel confident in their abilities and should be able to reach their maximum potential which I try to ge ... read more

To be able to teach takes time and patience as well as numerous other skills, I feel that I have the qualities to teach children ranging of all ages as well as older individuals. In my time working in a lab setting my goal was to teach an unknown skill to individuals. I feel that I was able to understand that each person learns at a different pace and with different strategies and this is important when trying to teach. I feel that with my patience, understanding, and knowledge of learning situations I can be that one person that helps that one child breakthrough and realize how a little more hard work can make all the difference.
In the process of achieving a bachelors of Science degree in Psychology I spent time working in a lab as well as being a lead counselor in a private after school program. In the school, my duties ranged from helping with homework to planning structured ac ... read more

I thoroughly enjoy working with children and watching them discover new things. I am especially passionate about making science approachable and enjoyable for everyone. I am very relaxed and patient in my approach, and believe learning is best acheived through hands on, individually paced experience. I have spent many years as a student and feel I understand how to be a successful learner. In turn, I am eager to help others achieve academic success and gain experience as an educator.
While I have not had a great deal of formal teaching experience, as an undergraduate I had the opportunity to tutor fellow students in biology and serve as a laboratory teaching assistant. I have also worked as a collegiate athletic coach, where I was able to foster teaching skills and develop and implement original daily learning plans.

My teaching style is mostly form-fitted to each child. I assess what level they are at, how quickly they learn, and what areas they need help in or should strengthen. I cannot stress the importance of patience when it comes to tutoring children, which I have an abundance of, having taught various ages. Also, having studied psychology, I understand that children are very sensitive to negative feedback. I have experience in how to give constructive criticism to children and how this can only encourage them to do better.
Although my bachelor's degree is in psychology, my interests throughout my education have been to study children; how they learn, how they think, and what I can do to help them better themselves. Because of this interest, I have tutored children for a couple of years some years back, and was recognized for my efforts. I have excelled in mathematics, English, and p ... read more

My philosophy of education focuses on student-centered learning. When students learn to be accountable for their own behavior and learning, they become practiced in valuable life-skills and become better prepared for the future. Further, I believe student-centered learning to be most effective, because students relish the idea of being entrusted to make their own decisions.
I am a licensed teacher and have a degree in English Education. My real-life experience has indoctrinated: strong organizational skills, teamwork and independent thinking. I have held several positions of responsibility and am self-motivated and self-directed.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been teaching for the last 8 years. I have a Bachelors of Science Degree from Greensboro College in North Carolina. I am Florida certified in Exceptional Student Education and Middle Grades Integrated curriculum. I am currently teaching Science, Math, Life Skills and Social Personal Skills. I have a great deal of teaching children who have difficulties grasping subject matter. I utilize proven research based protocols to ensure that my students are getting a quality education.
I am a firm believer in that every child can succeed in whatever they strive for if they are given proper instruction. Even difficult learners can succeed if the proper teaching methods are employed. Different students have different stimuli that they respond to. There is no one cookie cutter mold for teaching. After all, each student is an individual and responds in their own way.
