I am a recent Bachelor of Science in Child Studies graduate of FGCU and hold a current FCCPC. I am considered a non-traditional graduate (which in my case means older), and I bring with me a range of personal and professional experiences that have developed and enhanced my capacity for learning, teaching, and adaptability. My primary interest in learning is focused on the social-emotional and cognitive influences that create the optimal conditions for brain function during the learning process. Providing both the necessary supportive social-emotional environment through positive guidance as well as the cognitive stimulation that physical, sensory, and creative and artistic activities produce are fundamental to implementing a brain-based learning approach, and I am trained to integrate hands-on activities across the curriculum and learning domains that relate to real world experiences. ... read more

Math can be fun and interesting if you have the right tools!

I have served as a guidance counselor in middle schools for almost forty years and retired in December, 2013. During the last twelve years, I have tutored students in math in groups and individually. I enjoy using incentives and finding ways to make concepts relative in the student's actual life experiences. I still hold a valid Florida certificate.
I enjoy using a variety of techniques with my students. We play games, use various software programs, and other helpful one on one devices to assist students in understanding and remembering concepts.

Computer and other skills available, what I know I share.

I go with the styles that fit the student. I generally use the first couple of visits to assess what works best for the student and then work with the student in a calm and patient yet firm manner. I do not try to force results, every student learns differently and has different aptitudes. Therefore, it wiser not to push the student too hard for results, rather I push myself to find new and inventive ways to help students learn the material.
Took three years of college courses on Psychology at Ashford University, trained with a Computer Troubleshooting Specialist for four years, have two books of my own written word poetry published. In my time at Ashford I picked plenty of shareable skills, study skills, time management, and using my keyboard to it's fullest potential to meet deadlines. While training with the Computer Troubleshooter, I learned more about how to use software and t ... read more

Let's get you an A!

I began tutoring math, composition, and biology in college for 3 years and loved it! I graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in Biology with and minor in math. After college I continued tutoring middle school and high school students in math and biology in both a one-on-one and small group setting. I have been tutoring now for over 4 years and genuinely enjoy helping students realize their potential and succeed!
I find it partucularly useful to take time to get to know the student's interests so that I can relate each subject to things that the student is familiar with. Making this connection between a difficult concept and the student's personal areas of interest helps the student feel comfortable with the subject and therefore more confident thinking through each question presented. Once confidence is established, it becomes easier for students to develop an understanding of the sub ... read more

More About This Tutor...

The Multiple Intelligence Theory considers various possibilities for children’s (and adults’) capacity to learn. Gardner believes that there are any number of ways a person can be successful. I feel that all children are capable if they receive encouragement and that all children have a talent to offer. I also believe that talent and intelligence should be nurtured because everyone is special and has something to contribute to society.
My career in education began thirteen years ago. I started by volunteering in my son's classes as well as in the library. While volunteering in the library, I taught children how to do to research, write essays and reports, construct Power Point presentations and, finally, how to present their work in front of their peers. I attended the substitute training course and, as a substitute, I have worked with children of all ages and backgrounds as ... read more

My career in education has spanned over 17 years and has included teaching in Special Education and regular education. I have a BS Degree in Special Education and a Masters Degree in Education. I have taught from preschool age to high school age in both Florida and New York. I am certified permanently in New York and held previous certification in Florida. I have also tutored in homes and in the public schools. I especially enjoy tutoring, as the environment and teacher-student ratio is much more conducive to student success.
Because of my background in Special Education, I have learned to adapt curriculum to the individual levels and learning styles of my students. I have also learned that there are many creative ways to make learning more inviting for students. I have adapted many subjects to games and activities that students enjoy while learning. I have a patient spirit wi ... read more

Through my experience I have developed my own techniques. I recognize the importance of individualizing instruction for each student. I also feel that a student's ability to excel is greatly increased by focused one-on-one instruction.
I am currently enrolled in a graduate program for counselor education. I have a Masters in Education from Harvard University and have been teaching high school English in Westchester County, NY for the past three years. During my time as an undergraduate, I developed and supervised the tutoring program for the Minority Student Education Guild, which offered free tutoring to underprivileged students in the Gainesville area. I have had extensive tutoring experience in reading comprehension and writing at all levels and have also tutored students from elementary through early high school in math and science. Over the years, I have worked with studen ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have strong desire and passion to work with children! I have a very positive and enthusiastic approach using differentiated instruction, Kagan Cooperative Learning strategies, and Bloom's Higher Order Thinking. I make learning fun for all children by finding out what interests them and develop my lessons around that.
As a student at the University of South Florida, I was required to complete three levels of internships. In my last internship, I was in complete charge of the class. I used assessments to plan my lessons, seeing if I could go on to the next lesson or needed to review. I am a very enthusiastic teacher, and I have had several of my interning teachers, students, and cooperating teachers tell me that I make learning fun. In addition to my BS degree, I have had experience tutoring co-workers and friends in high school algebra and college algebra. Lastly, I am a basketbal ... read more

Teach a man to fish...is for life. Tutoring is the same, especially with younger children. I haven't met a student yet who is unable to learn. My job is to find the method that will best enable students to self-actualize their learning. A success is converting the child's approach and passion for learning. If I helped to change the child's mind about learning, I have literally altered the course of his/her life in a positive way.
I have a versatile background that began with two business degrees and progressed to a professional career in purchasing and sales. I discovered along the way that my true passion was teaching and I can be more effective in a tutoring one-on-one situation than a classroom setting. I am highly proficient and have tutored nearly all subjects and grade levels.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that all children deserve the help they need to be successful in obtaining mastery of skills. I teach children individually and try to meet their needs where they are. I endeavor to get parents involved in the education process. I am responsible, trustworthy, and take pride in seeing children learn. I get to know my students and encourage them in all ways, including self-esteem; students need to feel good about themselves.
I taught elementary school for 43 years in Michigan. I taught 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades in private, public, and charter schools over that span of time. I moved to Florida in 2006 and most recently have tutored students at Sylvan Learning Center. These students ranged from first grade to high school. My expertise is tutoring reading for students from first to sixth grade and tutoring math students from first to the fifth grade level.

I love working with children and seeing them get excited to learn new information. I feel that all children are very capable of learning, just some need that extra one on one attention that is not possible to receive in a classroom setting. I love that look on a child's face when they finally grasp a new concept. By helping a child learn you are really changing their future.
Even though I hold a business degree I have always had a love for working with children. As a college student I worked for two different families as a nanny, where I assisted a total of five children with their school work and projects among other things. After obtaining my BS in Finance from the University of Central Florida I went on to get married and work in a bank. It was shortly after that when I realized that my real passion was with children. When I became pregnant I left my banking position to b ... read more

Apart from baseball, my second love is education. I feel that every student has the ability to grasp a subject or a certain idea. It is all a matter of finding out how that student learns. My main style of teaching is threw the Socratic method of dialogue and real world examples. However, I am very open minded, patient, out going, and I am not satisfied with doing things one-way. There are many different ways to climb a mountain but it is important to know the most productive.
After graduating from Jacksonville University with a BS in Business Administration, I joined the field of professional baseball. I have been playing professionally in the Tampa Bay Rays’ organization for the past 5 seasons. During my off-seasons, I have been working for the Sarasota School Board as a preferred substitute mostly at Sarasota Middle School. I have taught in every subject at the middle sc ... read more
