More About This Tutor...

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...

Literally all my life I have been asked by students, parents and teachers to help students who were having trouble. I get tremendous fulfillment from watching someone who has been frustrated finally "get it." In addition to teaching music lessons, tutoring all subjects, and homeschooling my own two children, I have worked for the last 17 years with a private school. There I have taught a wide variety of subjects, but they depend on me the most heavily for high school sciences and maths. I am currently a registered substitute teacher, state certified to teach music and high school math, and I am working toward certification in more subjects. Due to my own hunger for education, I am actively pursuing a Masters Degree in Math Education.
When I begin tutoring a new student, my first objective is for us to get to know each other. The student will not be able to receive very much from me ... read more

I discovered my love of teaching when I started volunteering as a reading tutor and youth group leader. I am most effective when I work with students in a one-on-one or small group setting, which allows me to focus on individual students’ strengths and challenges. I customize my approach with each student’s particular learning style in mind. My goal is that students understand and learn to think critically and independently, not simply memorize. When I see a child’s eyes light up with understanding and smile at accomplishment, I know I have succeeded in making a difference.
While completing my B.A. in Management at Eckerd, I learned how to write effectively and enhanced my understanding of grammar, mathematics, history, social studies and economics. As a volunteer tutor at a public school and at my church, I began to develop my teaching skills. These rewarding experiences mot ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My teaching style varies depending on who I am teaching and what I am teaching. The consistent skills I use in teaching are getting people to develop and use different skills, particularly learning material and being able to apply it to life, ensuring people, and learning analytical (problem solving) skills. My goals include not only teaching material and skills that will help students, but truly making a profound difference in their lives.
As an undergraduate, I worked as a volunteer tutor in the Robles Park/Seminole Heights area for two years. I tutored kids in math, science, English, and social sciences. I also tought sunday school in my church where I was involved in designing the curriculum and planning lessons. I am also an experienced substitute teacher. I've been recently certified to teach social science's in grades 6-12 by the Florida Department of Education.

As a college graduate, I was ready ti conquer the world with my BA in Communications, but once I begin to think about what I truly wanted to do with my life, I begin to also look into childcare. I begin at USAA Child Development Center for almost two years. I felt so comfortable with the kids and I relished in the fact of being able to mold their minds to learn their abc's and 123'. I knew right then, this is going to be my career. I went on to Hillsborough County Headstart program, where I taught 3-5 year old for almost two yearss as well. It was definitely a challenge, but it was a learning experiencr. After that I moved on to becoming a kindergarten teacher for walton academy for the performing arts and I stayed there for five years.
I am most comfortable teaching with prek-5th grade students, because that is my area of expertise. I love teaching these age groups because they ar ... read more

My goal is to make certain that I know each child's own particular learning style and use the tools to make him or her successful. I use a variety of strategies, especially in writing, to make certain that students know how to write successfully. I use several graphic organizers for teaching the writing process and work with students until they find one that is a good fit for their learning style. I also believe in incorporating technology to help them become better writers through the use of online materials as well. I believe in finding the best approach for the student to help achieve success.
I have 14 years of teaching experience in secondary and post-secondary education in the fields of English/Language Arts, Social Studies/History, and a minor in French. I have taught English/Language Arts at every grade level in middle school and high school as well as the collegiate lev ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is entirely dependent upon my learner. Reflective practice guides my analysis of an individual's abilities, interests and potential which in turn guides my own instructional practice. While some learner's do require discipline and a strict agenda, I frequently relinquish powers to the learner in an effort to fully engage them in their own learning (while maintaining teacher authority of course). Through instructional facilitation, constructive practice and reflective play I look to encourage a well-rounded experience to advocate the love of learning to my student.
My experience in education is at once formal & casual, specific & broad. From working in the school setting with reading intensive students to conducting experiments and demonstrations on the floor of the MOSI science museum, I have gained a world of knowledge on teaching methodology and student assessme ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I love teaching. My style tends to be very hands-on, drawing analogies from many areas to clarify student understanding. I do this through games and word play. I usually utilize mnemonic devices to facilitate memorization of difficult concepts.
I have always excelled at mathematics. I once was certified K-12 in math. I have taught math at the high school level and have tutored adults prepping for the GRE. My degree in Humanities was fulfilled by taking coursework in American Literature and English, which I have also taught at a local career college.
