Communications Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Lloyd, FL

As a Training Coordinator for service-learning projects throughout Florida, I learned about the effectiveness of service-learning strategies. The opportunity to apply what is learned in classroom settings promotes retention of all subjects. In one project, students learned about homelessness in Palm Beach County, Florida and throughout the United States. Students empowered themselves when they spearheaded a food drive and conducted an assessment of homeless people in Palm Beach County. This process enriched their empathy for people in need. In addition, I challenge students with thought-provoking situations that increase their critical thinking ability and communication skills. One such example included the shootings at Columbine and why young persons might commit such an atrocity. This helps to promote self-discovery and critical thinking as well.

I am a mother of two school age children with entirely different learning styles and a college graduate who has tutored friends and family for the past 14 years. I believe that learning is an enjoyable process. I have tutored math, reading and writing from elementary school level to college level Algebra. Friends have sought my help to pass college entrance exams and to write essays. I have also aided my kids to advance in math and reading. Plus, I’ve tutored kids with developmental and physical disabilities such as Cerebral Palsy and dyslexia. In fact, I was employed by the Florida Dyslexia Research Institute for a summer. I also have completed graduate studies in Adult Ed., focusing on the unique needs of the adult learner. I firmly believe in students succeeding in school and life. Having a love for learning and school is the key to good grades and a healthy attitude. I don’t b

I have enjoyed each of my teaching and tutoring roles very much.

I believe that everyone learns in different ways and at different speeds; teaching begins with discovering the learning needs of each student. With this understanding, I believe that essentially any student can learn any subject if the curriculum is engineered to meet that student's learning needs. While the classroom encourages group learning, individual tutoring can meet the individual needs of each student. As a tutor, I enjoy overcoming barriers to learning, connecting with the student on his or her own level, and communicating the subject material through an individualized method. While earning my degree in English, I developed teaching and communication skills through both curricular and extra-curricular experiences. As an intended Secondary Education minor, I took many classes in education, including a middle and high school practicum. I also tutored students in grammar and c

I graduated from Florida State University in 2004 with a B.A. in Spanish and Italian with a minor in French. I have been tutoring with the Modern Language Department since 2001 and tutor in all three languages. I also spent a month in Spain teaching English to native Spanish speakers. As an undergraduate, I was involved with the America Reads program, where I was a reading coach/language arts tutor to elementary and middle school children. I am also qualified in tutoring basic math and college prep math. As a teacher/tutor, I find that being a good listener and paying attention to students needs creates a successful learning environment. Every child acquires information differently and their ways of learning should be respected. By creating lessons based on exciting, "real world" applications, students are more accepting to the content at hand.

My goal in tutoring is to create a comfortable learning environment for my students. I encourage them to ask questions and voice concerns so that they may be more receptive to the subject and truly enjoy what they are learning. My genuine interest and passion for teaching serves at a catalyst for student success.

I earned my bachelor degree in Communications and Creative Writing (double major), which has attributed to my excellent verbal communication skills as well as my writing skills. I've worked in a variety of environments from a newspaper to a radio station, in addition to my course work which emphasized research and reading for comprehension. As the poetry editor of FSU's literary magazine and the assistant editor of FSU's newspaper, I organized others into creative and critical ways of thinking and processing. My mother is a reading development teacher. She works with Title 1 children every day in her job. Before coming to college, I volunteered over 100 hours working with a Title 1 child on her reading, writing, and math skills. She was in the third grade for the second time that year, and by no means can I take credit for the fact that she went on to pass that year, but I do believe I h

A recent graduate with a double major in English and French, I have both academic and professional experience. During college, I maintained a 4.0 in all of my major classes while holding a top editorial position. Furthermore, I possess 3 years of tutoring experience. I have tutored students of various levels and various walks of life on both a free-lance and organizational level. I pride myself in my tutoring experience and truly enjoy the activity. I value shared goals for each session and encourage open conversation to cultivate ideas. Typically asked to assist on all levels of essay-writing, I start with the question and expectations. As an editor, I am extremely thorough. I make sure the student understands any edits that I mark are an attempt to help that student best learn. I walk through all edits with the student. I also take an approach of learning WITH the student and will not

I enjoy teaching children from elementary level up through college, especially in writing skills. My real-world experience as a public relations professional is appealing to my students, and I incorporate real-world examples and issues in my lessons. I love to see students realize their potential, and I am adept at assessing their abilities in order to give them the tools they need to succeed. I want to see children enjoy what they are learning, even if the subject is difficult for them. I think it is easier and more fun to "learn by doing"; I do not lecture students, but rather engage them in a way that keeps their attention. I am a patient and understanding teacher and feel confident I can help your child succeed. As an English major at a liberal arts college, I honed my skills as a writer early on. I have been a public relations professional for over 20 years, specializing in writing

I have been tutoring for four years, covering many academic subjects and ages. I have worked with four year olds, middle school students, high school students, college students, and even adults who were older than me. I have a natural gift that allows me to communicate with people from all different walks of life, which makes me a successful tutor. In addition to my strong communication skills, I also experienced a unique high school experience, so I find it easy to relate to students who prefer non-traditional methods of learning. I believe that students learn best from teaching and therefore owning the material. This means that whenever I teach, I first explain the concept, then model my thought process of solving the problem, and then I have the student teach the material back to me. By teaching in this style, this allows the student the create his or her own understanding of the

I have a very open teaching style and like my students to think and ask questions. As evidenced by my professional teaching evaluations, I care about my students and their progress. I furthermore place an emphasis on learning and practical application. In my classroom, every student has the opporunity to earn an "A" as long as he or she is willing to put in the effort. I am presently a visiting professor at the Florida State University Department of Communication in Panama City, Florida. I teach graduate level statistics and mass media, GRE preparation, and undergraduate business communications and research methods. While completing my Ph.D. in Mass Communication at Florida State University, I also taught public speaking.

I have always found myself adept at teaching. I have a great deal of patience and a genuine fondness for instruction. As a journalism major from UF, I gained extensive writing, research and grammatical skills. I am a proficient typist and have an intimate knowledge of computers and various programs. I am grounded in functional math: an essential skill in reporting on the economy and science. I went up to pre-calculus in high school and took both Algebra and Logic in college. Current events and history were both fundamental in my schooling. My recent tutoring history is not formal, but I have helped many students and peers edit papers, understand their math homework and prepare for tests. The teachers who continue to influence me and affect my day-to-day life are those who had a genuine passion for teaching and a contagious love for their subject. They were the best teach
