PSAT Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Key Largo, FL

I am a native speaker of English born and raised in the US. I've been teaching/tutoring for over 20 years in Europe, Asia and the US both in the corporate and private setting. I specialize in working with people who need help with their conversation or writing skills. This could be from writing a paper or submitting a college application to doing a business presentation at work. I also work extensively with students preparing for the TOEFL, ACT, and SAT. Part of the key to being successful in work or at school in English is understanding how we organize information when we speak and write. It is very different than in the rest of the world! I also love to help people just get more confident with speaking English in everyday situations. I myself have lived in other countries and learned that language so I understand how challenging it can be! My teaching style is very interactive and stu

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. For inst

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.

As a teacher of elementary mathematics, I understand how students of similar age can work on completely different levels. I believe to maximize comprehension, it is my duty to meet each student on his or her level and work from there. I have found that students learn differently and with different techniques and tools. As many of our students are technologically advanced, I incorporate this component into the learning process. For my visual learners, I provide visual cues. In all, I make what ever adjustments are necessary to meet each student on his or her level. As a student at the University of Miami, I studied anthropology and busines administration. I graduated from the University with my BA. I have over 8 years of administrative and financial experience working in the County government and at the University of Miami. My passion to work with the youth led me to make a career

Not only do I have a willingness to go beyond the normal classroom experience, I challenge myself everyday to strive for the best. By the time I was in seventh grade, I knew I wanted to enter a Dual Enrollment program. I wouldn’t let any obstacle stop me from my desired course. When I attended Robert Morgan, I always felt like I was missing something. I felt like there was so much more that I could accomplish and nothing was standing in my way. I knew what my next goal was; I jumped on board to attend School for Advanced Studies. I love being challenged. I’m intrigued to see how much I could learn, to what extent of your capabilities. Furthermore, I’m currently a full-time Miami Dade Student while taking all Advanced Placement courses such as AP Euro History, AP Calculus, etc. In the past years, I have spent my free time doing service learning at the Miami Dade College Writing Cente work

The most important element of my teaching style is patience. I consistently receive positive feedback from my students about my patience. I think it is important that learning not be fear-based. That is, students should not feel compelled to learn material because they are afraid of disappointing their teachers or families. Instead, a supportive learning environment lends itself to creating a safe place for students to make mistakes without feeling embarrassed. In this way, students can learn through trial and error. I have a Bachelor's in Psychology, and I will complete a Master in Public Health in May. I have been tutoring for the past five years. I worked for The Princeton Review as a classroom teacher and as a private tutor. I have worked as a private tutor for the past two years. I can teach SAT, SSAT, and GRE preparation.

Students who struggle in the classroom have often lost confidence in their ability to learn. Such students often complain that they “hate math” or “hate reading." My overarching goal as a tutor is to overcome this frustration and thereby improve the scholastic performance of my students. Parents are often amazed at the complete reversal of a student’s attitude, once their frustrations are addressed in a one-on-one environment. I begin each new tutoring relationship with an initial assessment of a student's deficiencies and a discussion of their goals. Next, I design a program of study tailored to the student’s needs. In the long term, I keep students engaged by relating the material to their unique interests and challenging them with short, competitive exercises. To date, I have never failed to develop a rapport with each student, build up their confidence in their own abilities, and the

I have alwasy enjoyed the one-on-one tutoring experience. I have found memories of volunteering as a peer tutor while in high school.At the college level,within study groups for various courses I consistently find myself as the facilitator. The opportunity to be involved in the learning process is extremely rewarding personally. My love for the learning process is what drove me to pursue my AA in elementary education. However, now while pursuing my bachelor degree I have changed my major to psychology. The human cognitive process regarding memory and recall is quite fascinating. Advancements within this field will benefit countless students in comprehending and retaining material. Helping others "get it". I love the challenge of turning a frustrated student into one to hungers and proactively seeks out knowledge. My approach to teaching is very student-oriented. I impress on the student

Graduating from the University of Miami with my M.S. in Education, in which I studied Sport Administration, I had the opportunity to study a variety of subjects which can be applicable to various industries in a business sense, while this degree was a study of how these concepts apply specifically to Athletics. I have studied Marketing in addition to Legal Studies in order to obtain my B.S. degree. I have tutored at the elementary level beginning in high school and continued throughout college in all subjects including reading, English, language arts, science, social studies, and math.

My strength as a tutor lies in my determination to work with each student to discover how they learn and process best. In three years of teaching English and Writing at a small, independent school, I found that academic confidence plays a huge factor in a child's overall academic success. I have achieved numerous ways to engage children, from 11 to 18 years of age, in work that they previously found daunting, uninteresting or impenetrable. When working with a particular student, I tailor my approach to his strengths in order to help him to see himself as a viable student. I believe that every child can progress academically when given the support and the tools to do so. I have always had a love for working with children and for learning. For the last five years I have worked as a teacher with students ranging from grade 6 through grade 12. My last three years were at a small school

I do believe all students can learn. My style of teaching incorporates the reading strategies from the C.R.I.S.S. program which materializes what the students are reading and learning through the use of creatve methods. I do not like the students to just give me a one-page summary of what they have learned, that is the old-fashioned way. I want to know they learned something, and I like to use some of the following methods: drawing scenes, creating poems to match characters, explaining, creating pattern puzzles, and communicating their ideas and interpretations in creative ways that engage them in learning. In elementary school when I tutored others younger than I in the Future Educators Club, I knew my call was teaching. I really began my career in 1999, as an afterschool tutor at a local middle school. There I was able to help students in social studies, math, writing, and my passion w
