ACT Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Lake Harbor, FL

I make learning fun. My teaching style is built on developing the students' understanding of the subjects. My goal is to develop the students' analytical thinking, and help them develop the math skills that will serve them a lifetime. I help my students transition from thinking that "math is hard" into believing that "math is fun and easy". I build the students' confidence and help them achieve their full potential by making it fun to learn. I have taught Math at all levels, from Elementary to College classes. I have tutored students of all ages, with excellent results. At this time, I have 8 students under my tutelage. Four (4) of these students are in the process of becoming completely independent, and will soon not require my help since they have reached a level where all 4 of them are constantly achieving test scores in 90-100 range. it is always my goal to help my students rea

Business student at Florida Atlantic University. I graduated from A.W. Dreyfoos School of the Arts with honors in the visual arts, specializing in Architecture and Mathematics. I have also tutored for 4 years now while in school by teaching a wide variety of subjects to students from the ages of 5-20. I use a Reciprocal/Practice based tutoring style. This an effective method because it allows me to interact with the student and help them grow more efficiently while holding an open discussion environment in each lesson. I then reinforce it with practice based assignments which are followed up with reviews in the beginning of the following class. This makes the student not only memorize definitions, but to also understand the reasoning behind different concepts.

My name is Alex and I'm going to graduate from the University of Miami in 2018. I find that the classes that I excel in are the ones I am most interested in, and the classes that I find myself less interested in, I make more interesting. I believe there is no way to retain information that is taught unless there is a general wanting to learn. My main goal is to improve a student's mind by finding ways that they can fall in love with a particular subject. Personally, I love microbiology and immunology because I find it being a very relevant to the human body. Economics, on the other hand, is less applicable to my likes, but I found a way to love it. I love sports, so after doing some basic research on major economic markets in the sports industry, I found a way to relate to the subject and my grade in the class skyrocketed. Rather than forcing knowledge to a student, I find it much more e
