High School Physics Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Longboat Key, FL

My major complaint with the current pedagogy of STEM fields is there focus on teaching students to be able to produce answers so a slew of canned and frankly uninteresting problem sets. There is so much interesting literature, philosophy, and history in the fields of science and physics that it makes very little sense to muddle with these less helpful and dull techniques and problems. Physics and math education has become so perforated with cliche that shows like Cosmos and the elegant universe can become hits by just regurgitating the same buzz-theories (Schrodinger's cat, Black holes, the multiverse etc.) in the same, cloddish language (space-time is 'warped' and twisted, quantum 'weirdness', etc). This lack of original language and analogy is not a semantical issue; it's suggestive of the philistine cleaving of the sciences from the arts and it's very disturbing -- these truly awesome

I have tutored in the tutoring center at the Florida Gulf Coast University in Fort Myers, FL and also a few students taking classes at St.Petersburg College. I also currently work at the Greater Ridgecrest YMCA and formally worked at the Clearwater YMCA so I am good at interacting with children. I also helped a few children with homework after school before my shifts started at the Ridgecrest YMCA. My mother also has been a special needs teacher since before I was born and I have worked with a few special needs kids at my YMCA job. I am dedicated to work with students until they understand the subject matter.

One on one or group. Lessons taught, homework assigned, then follow up of homework assignment. My experience, (both academic and work)has been widely varied, ranging from research and engineering to financial management in a corporate environment, followed by golf course design and landscape management. In addition I used my experience in construction and woodworking to build and market patio furniture. Unfortunately the housing depression of the mid 2000's caused the business to be non profitable and was closed. Since 2005 I have been semi retired and used my construction experience to work at a lumber and hardware store.

I achieved Summa Cum Laude honors from Sacred Heart University (SHU) and Magna Cum Laude honors from the University of South Florida (USF). In addition, I also graduated with the Gold Medal of Excellence (as the #1 computer science graduate in my class) at SHU. I have tutored students at the high school and college level for over nine years in varying disciplines: mathematics, sciences, computer science, psychology, and writing to name a few. Aside from my tutoring experience and academic success, I have real-world experience working in the computer science and healthcare industry. This knowledge allows me to create a simple to understand, yet powerful "connection of interest" between the student and their enthusiasm to learn. In other words, I am able to justify why the information the student is learning is relevant and how it applies to the real world. I enjoy challenges and help

My education is a private-based curriculum comprised of small student-teacher ratios. Since 4th grade I was taught intensive Spanish. A prep student, I excelled in English, Algebra and Geometry. My BA in Political Science included History and theoretical modern political thought and processes with a year in Latin. I studied worldwide economical and political research, often including statistics. My MBA in Marketing and Management Strategy concentrated focus in an MBA program stressing disciplines in business including Financial Analysis, Accounting and Statistical Analysis. I have informal experience as an English, Political Science and Marketing tutor to my prep, college and MBA peers. I have taught private guitar for the past 10 years.

Beginning with my undergraduate career at Dartmouth College, I have gained manifold experience in the needs of students. I was a Apprentice Teacher for the College's Language Study Abroad program in Puebla, Mexico in 2005. There I learned to accommodate the learning needs of a diverse group of more than 20 students. I continued language instruction as an Apprentice Teacher for the Rassias Foundation's Summer Program in Gijón, Spain. I gained extensive experience in writing and translation as I worked on a World Bank funded study of social institutions in Ecuador with the public policy NGO Grupo FARO. I returned to teaching this past year as a Spanish teacher at Prospect Hill Academy Middle School, an urban public charter school in East Somerville, MA. I am now continuing my education at the graduate level, pursuing an MA in cultural anthropology with a focus in environmental anthropology

I have been working with children for over ten years. My teaching style combines creativity, positivity, and flexibility. I believe that students learn in many ways; some learn by listening, some by looking, and some by doing. In my classroom I incorporate all these learning styles so that I can meet the needs of my diverse classroom. It is my philosophy that all students can succeed if given the chance. A part of my undergrad included an internship that I completed overseas at an international school. This has inspired my love for English Language Learners and helping them to succeed in school. I currently hold a BA in Elementary Education and am in the process of obtaining my MEd in ESL. My graduate program has challenged me as a teacher to strive for excellence in all my students, as well as in my own teaching practices. Over the past five years I have tutored students in Lang

Throughout my education I have been driven to achieve academic excellence by applying myself the best that I can. I have obtained a bachelors degree in science with a major in biology and a minor in chemistry; this has given me an outstanding understanding in many areas of mathematics and the sciences. I have also learned research skills and great biological writing skills from my research, laboratory reports, and various other essays during my studies. During the last two years I have tutored students in physics, organic chemistry, biochemistry, immunology, and calculus. I love to tutor and work with students of all ages. Every student has their own learning style that must be found to help the student efficiently and substantially. I want to provide the best education possible by learning about the student and finding the best way to display topics to them. Every student already posses

I have my professional certification in Elementary K-6 and Physical Education K-12. I recently taught Kindergarten and I have more than 30 years experience working with children of all ages. Along with teaching I have twice owned my own school and been the Director of many schools and summer camps. My strength has always been teaching Mathematics and I am taking the certification test next week. One of my gifts with working with children has always been the ability to relate well with them. I know what motivates children and have always shown patience and understanding. I have always tried to have children learn while having fun and try to give them multiple experiences because not all children learn in the same way.
