Eperienced results-based tutoring

I believe that the learner and instructor must work collaborative in order to be most effective. I believe in applied learnign which means that not only are the basics and mechanics necessary to form a foundation, but the learner must be able to see how the learning can benefit him or her now and in the future. I lean on case studies and items in the news to maximize interest in the learning program. Additionally, I am a consistent user of positive reinforcement. When the learner errs, I believe in facilitating their reasoning to discovering the best solution.
I have been blessed with an inventoiry of skills that can apply across many topics: - Music - can teach singing and percussion - English - I am an author of 2 books, and have always been involved in editing and creative writing - Psychology - Much of my career has been based on managing human behavior - Speech - I am a ... read more

Recent college graduate with school-aged nephews whom I help with school work, one of my nephews has ADHD.

"Half of knowledge is knowing where to find it."

Once while subbing, I entered a classroom where the students had been allowed to watch Jerry Springer on TV for the last two weeks. I couldn't let this continue, but I saw how emotional the class was about the show. I encouraged them to write their own talk show and told them we would perform it the next day. I find that connecting student's interest with the subject matter to be learned is the best way to teach.
After completing my undergraduate degree in English Literature at Florida State University, I worked as a substitute teacher in Hillsborough County for two years. In 2009, I completed my Master's Degree in Communication at University of South Florida while simultaneously employed at the Department of Special Education. I have been tutoring with Advanced Learners for 1 year and am currently an Adjunct Instructor of Public Speaking at HCC Dale Mabry.

Everyone deserves to love learning!

Relaxed, informal- students each learn in their own way, my objective is to learn from about an individual and cater to their own educational needs.
I am a recent graduate, having majored in biology and environmental studies. During my time in college I also had the opportunity to be a teaching assistant for a genetics lab and took part in an environmental education program in New Hampshire. My science and liberal arts background makes the the ideal candidate to teach a variety of subjects in ways that are interesting and informative to students.

My comments on tutoring Composition : This is an area of expertise. B.A. and M.A. in English; 15-plus years teaching or tutoring writing to all ages. Includes test preparation, academic and business writing.

I believe that all students can and will achieve academic success given appropriate instruction; i.e., instruction that is differentiated according to students' specific needs, learning styles, interests, and personal goals. As a classroom teacher and as a personal tutor, I have seen almost miraculous results in a relatively short period of time, both in terms of academic achievement and student confidence. Passion and enthusiasm for learning is contagious, and I am a carrier. For a dedicated instructor, nothing is more satisfying than watching a student "catch" the learning bug.
After attending (and teaching in) a graduate program in American/British Literature and Language at L.S.U., I realized that my true calling was teaching. I began teaching English, Journalism, S.A.T. Prep., Latin, and other subjects in Springfield, MA in 2003 in an alternative, urban high school. I t ... read more

I bring a friendly and patient approach to tutoring. I know hiring a tutor can be a challenging process and a tough decision to make. Accordingly, I promise to make the lessons as enjoyable as possible, while ensuring you (or your child) truly understand the material. I owe it to my students to make the material fun and interesting.
I have over 5000 hours (nearly 10 years) of tutoring experience, including the SAT, ACT, GRE, GMAT, LSAT and other selected subjects. I have been helping high school and college students get accepted to undergraduate and graduate programs all over the United States, including UF, Michigan, Stanford, FSU, UCF, and many others. My first teaching experience was with the Department of Juvenile Justice when I was fresh out of college. It was, believe it or not, a lot of fun! When I went on to Law School I was fortunate enough to be selected as a Teac ... read more

I hear and I forget. I see and I remember.I do and I get it.

The experience I have gained while studying Education and Psychology, along with administrating exams for Wonderlic Scholoastic Testing and tutoring has enabled me to learn through understanding, hard work and dedication. I have learned through extensive courses in Psychology on how we learn, education courses that break learning down, and working with children and adolescence for over ten years with tutoring and patience, that with the proper tools and guidance, anything can be achieved.
I believe that implementing the right tools, along with clearly stating what the student needs to learn, along with discussion, will ensure student success.Using multisensory resources, creatively using the newly formed knowledge, along with pre-testing will foster memory and recall.

My comments on tutoring Composition : Essays through Research Papers

Helping learners find solutions to their problems is my passion. My greatest strength is compassion. I believe that anyone can achieve. I enjoy helping others discover their innate joy of learning. I thrive on seeing the "light" in a learner's eyes. It drives me with a determination to find the best way to help each individual become a lifelong learner.
I was a teaching assistant throughout high school. I graduated Magna Cum Laude and was inducted into Kappa Delta Pi.

My comments on tutoring Composition : All of my ebooks and eclasses I consider compositions in the way each are arranged to communicate with the reader.

When you choose me as your tutor you are getting the advantage of not only my teaching skills but the benefit from my private Life Coaching Practice. In my practice I work with all types of people coaching them to sound thinking and to positive goals for success. For over 30 years I have been teaching, writing and administering basic life skills in all levels of learning in all aspects of Communications which have included: visualization, non-verbal skills, speaking, writing, teaching basic computer skills, assertive listening skills, conversation etiquette and public speaking. Most people are totally unaware that there is such a thing as developing good conversation etiquette. I have worked with elementary children, as well as my own, high schoolers, college students helping them with resumes, essays, reports, and thesis, and adults who were taking adult education.

More About This Tutor...

During my undergraduate, I had multiple field studies in middle and high school classes. I also had to tutor elementary students through my college for certain reading classes. During my last semester, I filled a permanent substitute position for 7th grade intensive reading. In the 2022-2023 school year, I taught STEM language arts for 6th, 7th, and 8th grade.
My teaching style focuses on modeled and guided discussions so that students can talk through their understanding so I can remediate and reteach to ensure that they are learning and they find confidence in their learning.

Composition is one of my top subjects! I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree in English from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) and a Masters degree in Teaching English. I have taught and tutored American and foreign students of all educational levels from elementary school to the university levels. As a composition instructor/tutor, I help students identify weaknesses in composition writing and teach them how to strengthen them.

I am a patient and understanding tutor and will never intimidate a student.
I have taught English and writing for various educational levels and specialize in essay composition. I teach students how to construct solid, unified essays in different writing modes with a developed thesis, strong supporting paragraphs, concrete examples, proper diction, grammar and proper English usage. I also teach students how to read and think critically about the author’s implications and then write a composition based on their understanding of the text’s main idea, point of view, explanation, and examples.
