Experienced Tutor

As an engineer and I have taught planners and engineers how to use software to do calculations. I have taught GRE preparation for Kaplan (analytical and verbal reasoning) both to small classes of 3 to 7 students and individual tutoring. In 2009, I was accepted into the Educators of Change program by the Duval County School Board. I am now a certified teacher in Mathematics and Physics (grades 9-12). I have a bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering and a master’s in Public Administration. In addition, I have learned extensive grammatical skills through writing articles for publication and many professional reports.
I enjoy teaching and working with children. While I believe that all children can learn, they do so in their own ways and at their own pace. It is the tutor’s responsibility to ensure that the student(s) understand the material. It is important to show students how one id ... read more

All students have the ability to learn, but they do not learn the same way. It is the job of the teacher or tutor to evaluate each child's learning style and adapt the lessons ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

A good description of my teaching style sould be very descriptive, and easy to follow. I break down the math into a series of steps, and practice them until they are mastered. For the students that have already decided that they hate math, I try to excite them with topics that they can relate to, such as sports, or cooking. We both make compromises, and I offer treats, or other incentives.
In high school I served as a big sister, and that's when I gained my passion for kids, and the importance of educating others. That experience led me to apply for a service scholarship which I earned to attend Florida State University. In college I volunteered at a local elementary school, following a group of students as their tutor until I graduated college. This service led to the beginning of my teaching career in Broward County. I sponsored an after school step team, and served as ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I taught in a classroom for one year as a teacher. I have taught title 1 for 3rd and 4th grade for one year. I have subtaught for about 3 to 4 years. I have tutored for about 11 years in all levels of math and basic reading.
I am a visiual learner but I understand that all students learn differently.So, I like to change the way I teach to the needs of the student and constantly turning the tables of their questions with questions that make them think and answer for themselves. I can read and write upside down very fluently and I believe this helps the students understanding. I have been voted teacher of the month continuously and students request me by name frequently. I currently work in a tutoring center where I work with 3 on 1. I try to make the student comforable and wants to work as well as enjoys it. I have been told numerous times that they have enjoyed coming to me that th ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I throuroughly enjoy teaching high school and allowing my students to learn Hands-on kinesthetic learning. I am a teacher and a mother. I believe in the success of all my students, whether socially or academically.
I always enjoyed Science as a child and majored in Biology in college. My love for science carried me to the class room where I have enjoyed educating my students with passion so that my love for Biology would carry over to them. An advantage that I feel I have for the success of my students is majoring in Biology and having a great amount of experience in laboratory techniques.

I believe in earning the trust of my students before I'm able to teach them. I earn their trust by trying to understand who they are and what interests them. After learning as much as I can about my students, I tell them a little about myself: what I like to do, where I grew up, and some of my accomplishments. As time passes, I use my life and teaching experience to help my students understand concepts, principals, and procedures. Example: I like to encourage my students to make illustrations, diagrams, and charts to help them understand fractions, human anatomy, or English compostion. In conclusion, I strive to motivate my students by giving them positive reinforcement and praise.
I have sixteen years of experience teaching science to middle and high school students. I've taught Earth-space science, Biology(Life Science), and Physical Science. I also have experience t ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have extensive experience teaching students in grades 2-12 (and college) in both the classroom and one-on-one settings. I have worked for several nationwide education companies, including Kaplan, Huntington, and C2 — I am very familiar with their methods, and I have incorporated the best of what they have to offer into my teaching style. I graduated with a degree both in science and liberal arts, so I am qualified to teach most subjects at the 2-12 level, including language arts, advanced math, and science. I also have lots of experience in SAT/ACT prep, which I enjoy very much! Lastly, I have spent considerable time teaching special needs students, so I am comfortable with meeting different needs and different learning styles.
Teaching is a passion of mine and a joy. I have had a diverse range of students, each with different needs and approaches to learning. Over time I h ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I would say that my teaching style varies depending onthe person I am teaching. There are several ways that people respond to in order for them to understand. I thik that everyone has a unique teaching style but still needs to be flexible in order to help the student understand.
I have been at Fccj for a little over two years. I have studied and mastered a variety of subjects. I am starting JU next summer to earn my BSN. I currently have my AA degree in nursing.I've spent a lot of time in the student life and leadership department that works one on one with students to help them with college success.
