More About This Tutor...

My teaching style is very specific to each student I tutor. I try to tailor my thoughts so that any student at any level in the subject can understand me. At the teaching center, the focus was to help guide the student to get the correct answer and not just give the answer. Sometimes the thinking process to achieving the correct answer is more important than the answer itself. I also try using diagrams and figures when they are called for to explain some of the topics. I frequently use positive reinforcement so the student feels even more encouraged to learn.
As a microbiology student at the University of Florida, I have taken rigorous courses in the sciences as well as math. The laboratory classes that accompany the science classes also provided first hand knowledge and the ability to write research papers and lab reports. This along with my passion for chemistry led me to take a ... read more

I have a strong background in science and math, giving me a passion for both subjects. I have always loved math, but when discovering a love for science, it seemed to be the perfect marriage for me to study chemistry. I earned a BS in Chemistry at USF and have also taught Chemistry to first year students my senior year giving me an edge on teaching. I have also taught martial arts to many students in the past, giving me an edge on being disciplined and understanding. I believe I am more than able to teach algebra, calculus, and science in your program. I also tutor Spanish.
I have been teaching martial arts since high school. I studied Wing Chun Kung Fu at an early age and later became my Sifu's helper in and out of class. I like to base my teaching like martial arts, teach the information by showing how its done, then use examples of it directly involving the student, and la ... read more

More About This Tutor...

The best way I learned to study was to see the information visually in a repetitive manner and practice many problems. However, I know that children are different in the ways they study; some may need an auditory or hands on approach and not just visual. I believe all students can learn and apply the information well if given the time and appropriate style for them. Thus, I use patience and encouragement when tutoring.
I have recently graduated from the University of South Florida where I earned my B.S. in Biomedical Sciences. I have taught and helped forty students in activities for General Chemistry as a Peer Leader employed by the university. I have also learned other sciences in my degree such as Physics, Biology, Microbiology, and Organic Chemistry. My strongest area was in the laboratories involving the laboratory reports, data collection, and application of what was learned ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I really enjoy the process of learning and believe that we all learn much from one another. I believe that a varied approach should be taken when teaching an individual. Also, I feel a teacher should be prepared to adapt their style to a student's needs. I am a patient person and will work tirelessly to help others.
I have had an interest in the sciences for the duration of my academic career. I earned my undergraduate degree at the University of Virginia and recently completed my master's degree at the University of South Florida. I have been accepted to medical school and will start in the fall. I previously taught in Virginia, and I loved sharing my passion for science, math, and economics with students.

More About This Tutor...

I have numerous styles to teaching all depending on what works best for each individual. I can walk students through material, or present it in a simulation/ real world format. I can also create a quiz based learning environment where you learn by answering questions. These are just a few ways I can teach subjects, each student is unique and therefore should be taught based on his or her preferences and I am always more than willing to adapt to whichever way a student feels comfortable. I also enjoy working with those who are not taking advanced sciences. I believe fostering a solid foundation in grade school students is essential and I have experience working with kids at young as 8.
For the past 6 years I have had the opportunity to be a tutor for both local area high schools as well as a tutor at the University of Central Florida. I just recently finished earning my degree in Mo ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a firm believer in starting out and "listening critically" to a child's specific needs. Tuturing gives one an opportunity to focus on your student's weakness and devise strategies as to how best to assist in strengthening those areas. Children love attention and if given the motivation, will shine in due time. My goal is to listen, be collaborative with both the children as well as the parents in order to provide the best instruction and assistance possible. I am easy to get along with and have no difficulty in getting children/students alike to open up. I look forward to being of service.
I am truly passionate about teaching and instruction of any kind. Born in Manchester, England, I have taught English, French and Math to students in England, France and the United States respectively during summer school as well as part of a National Service program. I have also mentore ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Every child has a unique learning style; some learn by reading out a loud, some learn better through visual representations, but many have a mixed learning style. My teaching style depends on my students’ learning style. I use engaging techniques to keep the student focused on learning. I like to bring a variety of resources to the study session like worksheets, reading material, rulers, balls, coins, playing cards, compass, tiles, graphing calculators, pictures, etc. I also utilize resources available online like math games and interactive activities.
With a Bachelors of Science degree in Biology, minor in Mathematics and pursuing M.A.T Mathematics, I have taught foundational to advanced levels of mathematics, chemistry and biology. In addition I have developed proven strategies to succeed and improve PSAT, SAT, ACT, GMAT, NET, CRCT, EOCT, GRE, COMPASS, and GED Scores. My stre ... read more

I love teaching and my goal is to help your child figure out how to become an independent learner. I believe the barriers to learning can be overcome by simply understanding what drives the learning process of your child and figuring out how he/she takes in, interprets, and utilizes information. This is the exciting part of teaching and takes good listening and observation skills as your child is likely unaware how he/she learns best. Breaking down the information into the basic units is key and takes patience and understanding. I am excited to open those doors with your child.
As a graduate from Purdue University with a BS in biology and of a US medical school, I had to excel in the sciences. I helped train other residents in both clinical and lecture settings during residency and continued training medical and nursing students once in practice. In addition, I have home-schoo ... read more

As a recent graduate, I was very driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I am a strong promoter of education advocacy and I truly feel "no child should be left behind". I have earned my Bachelor's degree in Biology/Pre-Med with a minor in chemistry which has enabled me to gain a vast understanding of various types of science.
I love working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am determined to assist your child in obtaining academic success in any way possible. I am understanding, outgoing and kind. I want all children to succeed and I am willing to find any way possible to help them do such a thing.
