I'm currently a senior attending Winter Park High School. I have a slew of education and extracurricular related accolades, and have been commended highly for my skills in writing (both creative and professional). My transcript has a long history of Advanced Placement courses and my standardized exam scores are impressive to say the least least (30 ACT, 1800 SAT, multiple AP Exam credits).
I actually don't have much experience as a tutor beyond helping classmates study, however throughout my experience in high school I've experimented with and adopted many avant-garde and unorthodox studying techniques and thought processes that have served gratuitously to my benefit, and I'm positive will serve yours as well.

Tutor with Real Life Experience

I have always approached a teaching lesson as a learning opportunity. Learning is a fundamental skill. If you don't have your basic fundamentals, your student will have difficulty advancing. So, I always start with basic fundamentals such as; note taking, study skills, and comprehension! All sciences demand the ability to link concepts together. Ex. cells make up tissues, tissues make up organs, organs make up organ systems,etc.....! By understanding the make-up of cellular structures and relating that to tissue functions the students can fully understand a subject. This proves true with all subjects. By impowering the student with good base fundamentals, my students find it easier to link concepts together.
I obtained a B.S. in Biology, with a concentration in aquatic science, from Wittenberg University in 2006. During my undergraduate studies, I tutored elementary students i ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have eight years of tutoring experience for students ranging from second grade to high school seniors. This tutoring has been in a variety of topics, from elementary phonics to high school geometry to handwriting. I have also had experience in tutoring for standardized tests such as the SAT, ACT, and FCAT.
Every student has strengths and weaknesses, and these should be determined for efficient tutoring. I believe in helping the student to learn and making sure they have the knowledge and help to understand the material themselves.

I have been teaching for over 20 years, both in the traditional classroom and online. My Bachelor’s Degree is in Physics and Math, and my Master’s Degree is in Physics Education. I have taught Physical Science, Physics, Conceptual Physics, Physics Honors and AP Physics as well as Earth Space Science, Algebra, Consumer Math, and Geometry. Helping students learn and be successful has been a natural part of my teaching experience and one of the most rewarding. I have also coached students in special projects including Physics Olympiads where our team won first place.
My teaching style has always been to treat each child the way I would want my own children to be treated. I teach with respect, honesty, humor and patience. I have the experience and ability to quickly assess where a student is in their learning and where they need to be. I like to “show” and “do” whenever possibl ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I was the valedictorian of my graduating high school class and one of the top high school math and science students in the nation, but I was not always a stellar student. For instance, I received a “D” in math in the second grade. I attribute my transformation to an "A" student at least partially to my third grade teacher in whose class my math grades improved dramatically and I jumped from the lowest to the highest reading group. She helped boost my confidence, made me feel like I could actually do better, and made me excited about learning. My tutoring reflects my strong belief that achieving some or all of the latter can positively impact students' long-term learning.
I am just as comfortable tutoring students in math and science as in reading and writing. As a secondary school student, I received a number of top science honors, such as first place honors in several state scienc ... read more

Although I have a well-rounded education, most of my knowledge and work experience is in mathematics (algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and calculus plus the related fields of accounting, computers, and engineering). My college education at Purdue University was interrupted due to financial reasons, but I returned to Lake-Sumter Community College at night while working full time and earned an AA degree. I know how important education is! I believe I am a natural teacher when it comes to mathematics and related fields - I helped my fellow students in high school during study halls, tutored through the National Honor Society, was my son’s private tutor, and assist my co-workers with their accounting and computer skills.
I am fascinated with the concept that the more senses you utilize in teaching the better the child learns and retains what was taught. Some children respond to v ... read more

Active participation defines my teaching style. I truly like and enjoy my students. Because of this sincerity, the students seem to enjoy it as well. "Hands on" seems to work best for my subject matter. Students learning is reinforced with many varied activities. A few examples include,writing and performing skits,acting out novels and plays, assuming the roles of peritnent characters, cooking, library research projects,etc. I have not only hosted many European trips, but have arranged many cultural activities for the benefit of my students as well.
I have 32 years experience at high school and college level.Upon retirement in NY, I moved to Florida and obtained my Florida Teaching certificate. I spent 4 years Homeschooling a number of students.I also have tutored adults in French. Teaching remains a passion in my life. I also have taken many students with me on trips t ... read more

I obtain a Bachelor’s degree in Speech and Language Pathology, I worked very hard to receive my B.A in a field I enjoyed learning. I also hold an Exceptional Student Education Certification K-12. I have experience with exceptional education and mainstream students. I contain many years of experience working individually with students to achieve their educational goals.
Work well with accomidating others in the different learning styles. Having a hard time explaining to teachers and professors about their teaching approach made me aware of the situation. I love to teach others how to long for self motivation. I believe that anyone can learn as much as they would like if they think positive and continue to focus.

A Little Bit About Me...

I became a teacher with the goal of not only instructing children but of also making a difference in my students' lives. I am an enthusiastic, creative teacher; I am able to meet my students where they are, understand how they perceive the subject matter, and work with them to enable them to learn. I respect my students' individual learning styles and needs and am patient and understanding of my students' strengths and weaknesses. My goal is to help students become academically successful.
Although I began college with the intent of becoming a teacher, I wound up with a B.A. in Business Administration. After many successful years in the business world, I finally returned to my original plan - teaching. I've taught math successfully at both middle and high schools and hold a Florida professional certificate in Mathematics 5-9, Middle Grades Integrated Curriculum, and Physical E ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a high school student, I tutored elementary and middle school students in their homes. In college, I tutored elementary age migrant children after school in english, math, and with homework studies. I also have three years experience in a public school system as a substitute teaching all grades in all subjects ranging from math and english to agriculture and special education.
I teach according to each student's learning style. I pay special attention to verbal and physical queues to understand if and how I need to change my style. I have learned that not all students can learn in the same manner and need specialized teaching in order to achieve the greatest success.

A Little Bit About Me...

When I begin tutoring a new student, my first objective is for us to get to know each other. The student will not be able to receive very much from me until he/she is comfortable with me. Once they feel that I care, they open up and the learning really begins! When I really get a feel for the personality and whatever particular challenges are unique for this person in this class, I am able to determine the best way to communicate the subject and improve the skills. I like to think outside the box to find the best way for that student to have that "got it" moment!
Literally all my life I have been asked by students, parents and teachers to help students who were having trouble. I get tremendous fulfillment from watching someone who has been frustrated finally "get it." In addition to teaching music lessons, tutoring all subjects, and homeschooling my own two children, I have worked ... read more

Tutored students for GED exams at Seminole Community College and was a Adjunct instructor for accounting and federal taxation at several colleges in the Orlando area. As a owner of a CPA firm and as a tax manager in a local CPA firm I have always enjoyed teaching and training the young employees in the firm. I believe one on one teaching is the most effective and successful way to teach a subject.
I love teaching young students and helping them succeed in their lives through education. I believe a good education is the one sure way any young person can succeed to better their lives and increase their options for good jobs. I also believe that one good teacher with the right passion and patience can help change the life of a willing student.

I believe in "Yes, You Can!", instead of "No, You Can't." Positive reinforcement and an emphasis upon disciplinary "best practices" can fertilize the seeds of personal and academic growth. In particular, I believe in focusing upon HOW a student learns. For instance, if a student learns visually, I like to tailor learning strategies toward that student's strength.
My educational background is stellar. The most important tool that I have acquired during all of those years, however, is NOT memorization, NOT spelling or grammar - it's the ability to THINK. Looking at the "Big Picture" enables me to see beyond the immediate problem, to find long-term, sustainable solutions. This skill extends across disciplines--whether they be English, mathematics, history or Spanish.
