More About This Tutor...

Have been a high school science teacher in Broward county since 2006, teaching primarily Biology but have also taught Anatomy & Physiology, Environmental Sciences and Earth/Space sciences. I work with lower socio-economic status, underpriviledged and special needs children and believe anyone can learn and acquire twenty first century skills. To instill a love of science and learning in general is my core value.
Very humorous and hands-on

A Little Bit About Me...

I am able to relate to students using their learning style and references that connect them to the material for better success. I am patient and use my sense of humor to figure out how a student learns to get the best results. I do not believe that one method works for everybody. I have a lot of experience with students with learning challenges. I love it when a student says "Wow." I like to support and reward their path to understanding. It's best when you see that they are proud of themselves and they did it!
After graduating with a double major in Psychology and English with an emphasis in Literature, I started my graduate work in English and a teaching position as a high school English teacher. I took education certification courses and passed the state exam for the State of Florida for middle school and high school English. I was an instructional aide for Adult Education at Ma ... read more

My experiences as the oldest of seven children instilled in me the desire to educate others, so I obtained my BS degree in Biology and Secondary Education. I taught 7th and 8th grade sciences for five years before staying home to be a full time mother and substitute teaching on the high school level for 3 more years. I operated a small daycare during my children's growing years before returning to work fulltime in the business world. I have trained, mentored and supervised many, many young people over the years and still enjoy great personal reward from helping them grow as individuals, gain self-confidence and learn.
I feel that the most important step to being an effective teacher is to make the material relevant. If the student does not see a relevant reason to learn the material, the learning curve will be much steeper. Then, I work hard to be sure the student understands ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My first major mentoring/teaching experience occurred in college when I began leading study groups and eventually organizing tutoring sessions with a number of my fellow English, Calculus, and Physics students. I then obtained a position as a youth counselor with the YMCA and quickly moved up to Site Coordinator where I was in charge of my own after school care group, including being in charge of organizing activities and managing youth counselors. Most recently I underwent PADI Divemaster training where I had real world experience teaching and assisting PADI Open Water students with classroom, confined water, and open water training.
My style tends to range based on who I am trying to teach, and I suppose is most accurately labeled as adaptive. I understand that different people learn things in different ways, and so I try to accommodate that with my teaching. Fo ... read more

As a Teacher Assistant I used to assess changing curricular needs and offers plans for improvement. Providing an educational atmosphere where students have the opportunity to fulfill their potential for intellectual, emotional, physical, spiritual and psychological growth. With my BA in Social Science , it help me to ensure that the student growth and achievement is continuous and appropriate for age group, subject area, and/or program classification.
I think that we have to a pproach every kids needs in different manners since every kid dont learn at a same pace or way than others. Obviously I Like to use a plan or a Guideline which will help me to identify the need of the student and it will help to place the children in a group that will meet their potential. My Goal as a teacher is to provide to my student the right education and academic potential which are the tools to ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I thoroughly enjoy teaching young minds. Regardless of the reason that student is seeking tutoring, whether it be a demonstrated deficiency in performance, or a desire to excel in the subject matter, tutoring is an ideal method to provide individualized instruction to the student and tailor that instruction for maximum efficacy. As a tutor, one may vary their teaching style from student to student and further modify their approach with each student dependent upon daily emotional and motivational changes of said student. In all, I am firm in my overall teaching style but am malleable to the exigencies of the moment and the aspect of individualization is the component of tutoring that appeals most to me.
I am currently a doctoral candidate for my PhD in Organizational Leadership. I also hold a Masters degree in Human Relations, an applied social science; a Bachelor’s degree in Libera ... read more

I am passionate about mathematics and I enjoy teaching it. Various students have different styles of learning and it is only through individual exposure that I am able to find the right learning technique for any give student. Patient and faith in the students, however, are the most determining factors in teaching them.
I recently graduated from Florida International University. I have been working as a tutor in mathematics for various levels, particularly college, since I started my mathematics degree program. Ever since I have been working as a tutor, at least part-time, to help those who have problems in mathematics succeed. Every time a student improves it is truly satisfying and I consider it an achievement.

Honestly, I can’t see myself in any other profession. I love what I do. There are those days that always seem tuff but at the end of every school year I am able to sit back and look at the impact I have made. I value education and realize the need for good educators to not only teach our students but get them motivated about their futures and the endless opportunities. I am patient and will work alongside any student who is willing to learn and try their best.
I have truly enjoyed working with children from my early years in high school. Along with that I have always felt the need to help people in any way possible. Becoming a teacher has been such a great experience and opportunity. Overtime I have also realized that many students are unable to achieve their ultimate success due to external factors outside of school. That is one of the many reasons I have also chosen to become a ... read more

The subject that students need the most help with is math. I have noticed the differences in difficulty when trying grasp mathematical concepts and have found ways to somewhat cater to their specific trouble areas. It is very important to give lots of examples and practice problems. I think it is most important that I make the student feel comfortable, that I am creative in my teaching methods, and that I ultimately teach the material to reach a full understanding.
I started tutoring at a learning center where I tutored children ages 5-17. I tutored every subject including the FCAT test. I decided to offer private tutoring on my own and travel to the students' houses. I found that the students felt more comfortable and it also gave me chance to discuss the progress of the child with parents to a better extent. I then became involved with a program dealing with foster care c ... read more

I first begin by determining what areas of a students particular subject do they know and which areas are they struggling with so we can begin to target those areas they are struggling with by focusing on which concepts the students have a particularly hard time grasping. A lot of times the real problem is that the student has never had someone take the time and personal attention that student needs to explain certain concepts to the extent they may need to understand certain basic principles. I understand that different students learn in different ways and at different paces. Everyone has different learning capabilities, so I am very patient with all of my students.
I am a graduate student in the PhD program in physics at Florida International University. I have a very strong academic background in both physics and mathematics and have completed my M.S. degree in physics in 2009. ... read more

I am interested in teaching secondary science. Science provides a unique outlet for student growth, due to its explanations of the unknown. The challenges of science not only allow me to teach students how to investigate the world and acquire knowledge, but also to incorporate problem solving and life skills. The experience of seeing students use newly learned skills and information to conquer social problems or investigate a creative idea is priceless to me.
I possess certificates in the state of Florida to teach Biology and Chemistry grades 6-12. I have taught Earth Science to 9th graders for one year, and have worked as a substitute teacher for two and a half years. I have a BA in Theatre, and am currently working on a minor in Chemistry.
