CLAST Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Maitland, FL

I taught in two public high schools in Orange and Osceola Counties in the Central Florida area for 5 years where I earned the Professional Educators Certificate to teach mathematics 6 - 12. For the past 10 years, I have been teaching at a Huntington Learning Center while privately tutoring students from the area middle, high school, and community colleges. My teaching style adapts to the students current level of knowledge. I always model 2 or 3 problems step by step before asking the student to try a problem. A student is comfortable knowing that I have "their backs" and won't let them be frustrated for long. This gives a student confidence to try problems on their own.

Teaching is an art. It can and does vary for each individual. When I teach, I first attempt to assess what type of learner the child is. What causes the child to become a sponge? My goal is to provide the best understanding of the material possible. I firmly believe that with a if you allow the person to do the work and just simply facillitate them, they will come to realize they more than likely know alot more than they originally thought. This process helps to boost self-esteem which can at times are shown by the grades of the students after our tutoring sessions and even during. As a future physician, working with people I find is necessary in order to be as efficient in every way possible. In the last five years, I have enjoyed working with kids of all ages as a tutor to middle school kids in high school, and then a tutor to college kids when at Valencia, and then as a tutor for no c

My philosophy is to promote positive thinking and to let all children succeed in math. As a mathematics graduate, I have strived to teach and tutor mathematics in such a way that everyone could have a general understanding of it. I have earned a BA in mathematics, which has given me the opportunity to gain an understanding of how to make math an enjoyable subject. Many people that I have spoken to do not like math.

Students learn best from doing things. I try not to lecture, but to involve the student in the learning process. I can lecture, but I haven't found it to be as effective as other methods. I very much prefer tutoring to classroom teaching, mostly because I am helping people learn what they want to learn, and solve problems they are having troubles with. I have worked part time as an adjunct instructor since the '70s, including 22 years with the Orlando Program of Florida Southern College, and 11 years with Valencia Community College. The later provided me with dozens of short courses in education. I also completed and retired from a civilian career with the US Army and Navy, starting as an intern, and reaching Senior Executive levels. Very recently I have been tutoring fifth grade and seventh grade students attending Lake Highland in Orlando. Also worked with math students wo

I believe each child learns in their own way. It is the job of the instructor to facilitate the child's learning. Patience is key and a comfortable pace.

I like working with individual from all walks of life. Some are meant to be leaders while others tend to be followers. But in general, we all want to be heard! I normally encoruaged people to speak their mind and be heard off. Communication is a must in order to understand individual person. Education becomes effective if you can establish goals and objectives on students. It becomes more enjoyable and fun when you have a clear vision of what is expected. I have several years of work experiences in management, hospitality business and in teaching others in the field of taxation and financial strategies. My BS degree in Industrial Engineering and Post graduate studies in Business Administration enhanced my ability to percieve others of their needs and wants.

I have over 20 years experience teaching mathematics at the community college and university levels. I have also worked as a tutor at the Mathematics Laboratory and the Academic Success Center for Okaloosa-Walton Community College. I have worked as a private tutor on numerous occasions in the past. Most recently, I worked as a tutor for a private school in the Dominican Republic where I tutored eleventh graders in pre-Calculus. From my own experiences as a student I have come to the opinion that the most valuable educational accomplishment one can achieve is to “learn how to learn”. This seems to be a state of mind, an epiphany if you will, which hopefully will be realized at some point in the course of an individual’s intellectual development. Such a state of mind is not usually due to the efforts of a particular instructor, nor is it the result of having taken a certain class. Rather

As an undergrad at UCF, I spent time tutoring fellow classmates in english and math classes. I began teaching a student leadership class and continued that while in graduate school. I spent a year in Japan teaching english through a variety of teaching meathods. My master's degree education provided a great deal of technique and methodology in which to tutor students with special needs. I believe in determining the needs of each specific child. Some students need more structure, while others need more freedom and more creative pathways towards learning. I can facilitate both, specilizing in transformative, participatory learning. To see and hear are one thing, but learning by doing is the most successful. My goal in life is to provide opporuntity, motivate, and inspire others as others have done for me.

It has been my experience that all students have the ability to learn given the time, attention and support they need. Nothing brings me greater joy then finding the right way to explain something to a student so they finally “get it” and watching their eyes light up with understanding. As a tutor it is my job to find the exact explanation your child needs to understand the material. I am patient and kind and will do all I can to ensure the success of you child, I have excelled in Mathematics from High School, Collegiate and Post graduate levels including the Naval Nuclear Power Program. I have receive an AA from Valencia Community College and a BS from Almeda College. I am a certified Nuclear Reactor operator by the US Navy.

teaching children to read and read more fluentely is the teaching approach I find necessary to meet academic achievement. I beleive a child's determination to learn to read and learn is directly effected by the approach of the educator that is providing the learning experience. The challegnge of finding literature where students connect helps them discovery more about word strengths and weakness as well as their surroundings and experiences.I believe children can exceed and my expectations as a teacher is for them to exceed. I taught both general education and exceptional special edcation students who have been well below grade and reading level as a tutor and as a subsitute teacher in elementary education.I worked in elementary education for 3 years and have been tutoring for 2 years. As a late bloomer in education, I worked these areas of education until I finished my Bachelor's Degree
