PSAT Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Lorida, FL

My primary aim in tutoring students is to assess exactly where they are academically, including reading level and math skills. Then I teach to their exact level. I help them to set up realistic goals and strive to meet those goals. Encouraging students and helping them to see their progress is a big part of their feeling satisfied that their efforts are showing dividends. I have worked with both the extremely bright, gifted students as well as those with learning disabilities so I understand the importance of proper pacing and the use of various modalities for successfully tutoring each individual. I have always endeavored to excel academically and so sought after and received a top-level education at Duke University. Having a love of language and having a desire to be able to teach at all levels, I obtained an MA in English from the UNC-G. I have had 43 years of teaching and tutoring at

My teaching is guided by the needs of my learners; hence, I create learning by setting my students on their needs and interests to life-long academic endeavors. On this journey, I help to develop strategies, techniques, and skills that will direct them on the path to help my pupils to want to succeed and to have the desire to victorious in their dreams and perceive the idea that life is predetermined by where you are; instead, they catch a glimpse of who, what, and where they can go in the creation to develop a dream. I worked full-time for Okeechobee Eckerds Juvenile home for boys and the Polk County School District. In these positions, I was a reading teacher. I did work many years as a teacher, aide, and assistant that taught special needs learners to strengthen writing, math, and reading difficulties. Hence this gave me experience with many learning situations like one on one and who

I am certified to teach both math and reading in Florida. I am particularly strong in helping students to understand the basics. I became a teacher because I feel that I can make a positive difference in my students' lives while providing them quality instruction from a teacher who truly cares. My last teaching assignments were in preparing high risk students to pass the FCAT and the GED. My students exhibited a ninety-seven percent pass rate on both tests upon passing my class. Students should be taught as individuals based on their particular learning styles. People learn at their own rate. My philosophy is that all students can be successful if taught by a caring qualified teacher in a positive learning environment. I thoroughly enjoy the challenges of teaching. My reward comes when my students are successful in learning and develop positive self-esteems towards learning.

I graduated Summa Cum Laude with a BA in Spanish and Religion. I have been tutoring for over four years at all grade levels. I won the scholarly writing award for my writing and grammar skills, and have a broad knowledge of English and Spanish grammar. I have tutored various subjects including math, history, Spanish, and language arts. I love teaching, especially one on one where I can give my full attention to the student. I taught K-8 Spanish, then third grade. I understand that each child learns differently, so many methods may need to be incorporated. Repetition is something I rely on to learn vocabulary words or important concepts. Music and games are a fun way to help children and adults learn difficult or lengthy concepts. I want to be able to not only help the child understand what they're supposed to be learnilng, but also to enjoy learning it.

I have been trained and always believed that all students can learn, under the right instructional forms. I use a variety of teaching styles to reach all of my students. Hands on, power points, lectures, movies, worksheets, diagrams, and even realouds provide learning for each individual in a different way. Exposing these learning methods to all students helps them find the best choice for them, while learning to learn through other methods. After graduating from high school, I felt that I could return to the high schools to provide a more engaging, caring education to many more students. Throughout the past fifteen years, I have taught various levels from gifted to varying exceptionalities, coached several sports, and enjoyed participating in many after school clubs and organizations. Since completing my masters degree, I want to continue to educate as many students as possible to

I believe allowing students to have some flexibility and leadership in their own learning makes a more enthusiastic and motivated student. I believe instruction should be purposeful, meaningful, and appropriate for what each student is required and capable of attaining. I also use assessments (formal and informal) to measure and adjust learning goals for all students regularly.
