As a graduate from the University of South Florida, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I earned my bachelor degree, BA in History, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of the social sciences as well as reading and writing. I had to learn extensive grammatical skills due to writing research papers and thesis papers, along with essays in many various areas of study. During the last five years I have tutored students in history, English, psychology, the arts, mathematics, and sciences. I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am available to help your child find academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providing a constructiv

I was a music specialist for one semester. It was a great experience that I truly enjoyed. I taught grades K-5. I was responsible for creating my own lesson plans and activities for the 40 minutes of music class. I introduced recorders to the 5th grade. Then I put together a booklet for them to teach themselves how to play more songs. They looked forward to working on this summer project independently. I tutored 5th and a 3rd graders this last year. A fifth grade student of mine was falling behind in her work load and brought home a below average report card during the first quarter of school. After my help her grades climbed to almost the A/B honor roll. Her parents were pleased with her improved grades, attitude, and self concept. I enjoy meeting new students and learning what their individual needs are to better teach them the concepts they need to know. I individualize t

My teaching style is one that is more interactive than instructional. I continue to be amazed while I observe the thought process and problem solving techniques, of the many different and varying individuals and personalities. I am at my best in one on one situations, where I can troubleshoot and identify learning challenges in their early stages. I believe we retain 30% of what we hear and 50% of what we do. The remainder is acquired through repetition, which is a byproduct of a passion waiting to be discovered. My experiences involve the teaching and performance of music education. I am a skilled performer on the trombone, keyboards, drums and percussion. I am qualified to teach brass instruments at levels k-12 and stringed instruments at k-5. I have performed professionally in 7 states, Italy and Belgium, while serving in the military. I have created a choir for prime-time Europ

I love to teach. There is nothing more fulfilling than to see a student succeed who was previously having difficulties in a subject. I believe that patience is the key. I believe that you need to also listen to what the student has to say if they have anything to say at all, then observe while they work to see what works and doesn’t. Each student is different and should be taught as such, which is how I tutor. I also like to get to know the student so that they feel comfortable enough to speak freely especially if they do not understand something. I graduated from the University of Cincinnati majoring in Civil Engineering. While in school, I had two different tutoring jobs. The first job I had was with Mathnasium now known as Lumen Learning Center in West Chester, Ohio. At this job, I taught first grade through Trigonometry. This gave me the experience of working with groups of

I think in order to truly learn students need to be in control of what they are learning and have as many hands on experiences as possible. It is best to teach students how to learn, so that they continue to be life-long learners. I also believe that students need to be given choices in regards to their learning so that they learn how to make responsible decisions. It is up to me as the teacher to help inspire students to want to learn and help them see the rewards of their work. Each student is different, and it is up to the teacher to figure out what that student needs to be a successful learner. I love using learning strategies and hands-on methods to help students understand difficult material. I have been tutoring students at the Northwest Alachua County Boys and Girls Club, and similar sites, for 4 years. I have received my Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education (k-6) and m

After receiving a Bachelor of Music in Education degree from Youngstown University, Youngstown, Ohio I was employed by the Crestwood Schools, Mantua, Ohio to teach instrumental music. I taught this subject at the middle school level while assisting with the high school program. My entire thirty year career in instrumental music was with the Crestwood School System. During my tenure at Crestwood Middle School the instrumental music program evolved into a vital program within the school involving four bands and over 250 students. During these years and to the present I still am involved in private music lessons and aiding music stores with their instrument recruitment process. My teaching style is based on student needs and abilities. I feel that every child is capable of learning and enjoying music as well as any other subject. A students progress is determined by their learning rate

I love teaching and working with children of all ages. I believe all children can become educated but each child is different in terms of how they obtain and absorb information. In many cases, this can be challenging. Some students, such as my self, back in middle school, need additional one on one assistance. I am excited to help your child find academic success! I am patient, respectful, and considerate of your child's learning abilities and will take as much time as needed to learn their pace. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. I look to bring success to you as a parent and to your child academically. The sky is the limit! Hello. I bring experience in mentoring and volunteering with students in my local community. Having been a member of community groups, we were able to reach out to youth and mento

As mentioned above I have worked with various individuals. I had the pleasure of working with special needs children to attention defficit children. My teaching style and approach to each individual in unique. Everyone has a diffrent way of learning. I will have to work closely with the individual to understand and acknowledge their learning style. This will be for the betterment of the individual who is learning. As a recent University of South Florida graduate, I feel as if I have been exposed to various people and various situations which allows me to utilize my knowledge and expertise in diffrent areas.

Enabling a child to realize his full self-worth is the reward a teacher gets when he is able to work individually with a student and show that child that he can learn whatever he needs to learn. By recognizing the child’s interests and valuing him as a person, I can reach him and together we can work toward the goal of understanding. It is very important that the student understands the “how” and “why” of the subject rather than just memorizing facts. I feel that I have the secrets to unlocking that for students. Since earning a Bachelor of Arts degree from Baylor University, I taught English, Drama and Journalism in Texas and in New Jersey for several years, after which I spent another 10 years tutoring students from kindergarten through high school in all subjects when they were required to be home from school due to illness or other situations. I subsequently went into the corpora

I like the child to feel comfortable with me to where they are at ease and readily ask questions. I prefer to ask the student leading questions to aide them in coming to the conclusion on their own as opposed to simply telling them information. After a few questions have been answered then I am able to help them with the details of problem and a help them build a method for solving similar problems in the future. I have a BS degree in Interdisciplinary Natural Science and a Minor in Public Health. I worked for USF Housing and Residential Education. I also was a Peer Leader for Chemistry where I was basically a Teaching Assistant and led two sections by myself.
