Calculus I Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Jupiter, FL

My name is Alex and I'm going to graduate from the University of Miami in 2018. I find that the classes that I excel in are the ones I am most interested in, and the classes that I find myself less interested in, I make more interesting. I believe there is no way to retain information that is taught unless there is a general wanting to learn. My main goal is to improve a student's mind by finding ways that they can fall in love with a particular subject. Personally, I love microbiology and immunology because I find it being a very relevant to the human body. Economics, on the other hand, is less applicable to my likes, but I found a way to love it. I love sports, so after doing some basic research on major economic markets in the sports industry, I found a way to relate to the subject and my grade in the class skyrocketed. Rather than forcing knowledge to a student, I find it much more e

Our tutors are trained to be able to relate problems to the real world, making them concrete and simple. For example, a question may ask what is 7 times 25? This problem is abstract and challenging to some people. Thus, I rephrase it to, "If you have 7 quarters in your pocket, how much money do you have?" By making the problem more relatable to the student, the problem suddenly appears easier and less intimidating. Our tutors go through training on how to assess each student's individual learning style, and know how to adapt to each student. Being able to adapt to different learning styles is what sets out tutors about and ensures that the students learns! I work at the corporate office for Owl Tutors. We help match students to the perfect tutor in the South Florida area. Our tutors have been tutoring for many years and work with elementary through college students. Helping people and se

In a society where students are affected by science and technology on a daily basis, it is important to let students develop meaningful understanding and make the connection between the science we do in the classroom and the science of the world we live in. In a discussion on science education, the American Physical Society News repeated the intriguing line, "Science is something that children should do, not something that should be done to them.” I believe in this statement and the idea that "learning is doing." In order to integrate these ideas into my approach to teaching, I believe in implementing aspects of the learning cycle in which students get a chance to explore, develop, and then apply the content we are investigating. I think that it is important for students to be guided to receive a balance of content and process in their development of meaningful understanding. After

As a pastor,coach, and mentor of our community youth, I enjoy watching each person realize their individual potential. This is accomplished by identifying their strengths, but allowing each person to participate at the level they are comfortable with. Once I see a person's talents and interest, I like to proactively encourage them. I will press a person who recognizes their own potential into realizing that perfect practice makes perfect. Discipline and boundaries are rquired to cultivate success. Knowledge is one thing but wisdom is the ability to use that knowledge and successfully comunicate that into a productive environment and lifestyle. Excellence comes from mastering the details. With my BS I became a Research Assistant at the University of Alabama. I went to a Teledyne company to become their Quality Assurance Manager. With my MBA, I became a plant Chemical Engineer for P

Although I have little formal experience with teaching teens, etc., I know that the greater need is to reach them in a way as to help them want to learn and gain knowledge. If they find accomplishment and value in what they learn, they will want more. A true teacher knows this. My goal is to add value to their life therefore adding value to mine. As to structure, each student will have individual needs based upon their current lack of knowledge and the goals set into place. My background is mostly in computers. I have taught programming langauges to IBM customers and have had training contracts here and in Asia. I have a BS in Math and 31/2 yrs in Chem. I have taught and trained many people in business and am very comfortable in one-on-one environments and working with new people. I am well liked by children and feel that I can add value to their learning experience.

I feel that the relationship formed between tutor and student is as important as the information being taught. A sincere concern for people is the foundation for successful and influential teaching. I gladly spent extra time planning an English lesson if it allowed the student to connect better with the material. To keep interest levels high, I would teach a lesson and then create practice exercises around one of the student's favorite hobbies such as cooking, surfing, or music. These exercises aided comprehension and retention while providing a fun and enjoyable learning experience. I believe in challenging students, giving them the tools they need to meet that challenge, and watching them succeed! I recently graduated with the highest honors from the University of Florida. I double-majored in economics and international relations with a minor in business administration, giving me bot
