More About This Tutor...

For me, teaching is not just a career, it is a passion. I enjoy the challenges it has brought me through the variety of grade levels and concentrations that I have taught. I have been lucky to have worked with diverse populations at all grade levels K-8. I encourage students to be creative, independent thinkers looking beyond the usual, to be flexible with their thinking, looking "outside the box". I want active, engaged students joining in class discussions, questioning and looking for connections. I like learning to be fun for my students; I constantly look for different ways to meet the needs of all learners through the use of differentiated instruction; scaffolding lessons, tiered tasks, hands on activities, discussions, and use of technology. My goal is to inspire students to be life-long learners.
I have a Bachelor's of Science degree in Elementary Education with a minor in m ... read more

I am qualified to assist with aspects of their education and training, if this something you'd like. I had a teaching credential and at one time as a full time teachers aide, with experience in grades first to six and train staff in a variety of software programs. I am currently retired from the classroom, but have the ability to tutor basic subjects and to oversee homework assignments and special curriculum-related projects.
What I like most about tutoring is the great nervous energy and excitement I feel as I work with children, this despite the fact that I have been tutoring for over 5 years. The anticipation of meeting so many new people and working with other students and starting adventure in learning gets my juices flowing. It is the excitements of the students that I come across keep my interest each time I interact with them. It never ceases to amaze me how every student ... read more

I have a very unique way to approach children to teach them a specific theme, because I use my knowledge in human behavior in which I've been trained for more than 10 years. I am able to give them time and consideration for their own way to go into the learning process. I am a beliver that we learn from them too in that process. My experience as a tutor is a balance of my proffesional and personal skills to provide children the right tools and learning experiences. Education is, in my opinion, the key to have a better world.
I worked teaching and tutoring children and young adultos for the past 20 years, back in my country and in the USA. I have earn two bachelors degrees, Law and Social Psyhcology, in Argentina and a Family Mediator certification in Florida.

I enjoy working with students of all ages and ability levels. I meet them and determine their learning style as well as general abilities. Helping each student to discover his or her strengths is key to success in tutoring each client. Working with classroom teachers or counselors is also very important as communication should be a strong link in the ability to pinpoint areas of need. Being positive and encouraging is a hallmark of good and successful tutoring. My students enjoy our sessions and the older students recommend me to their friends as well.
I worked in California for one year as a substitute teacher; I worked for three years in a Christian School first in a 3-4 combination, then a 5-6 combination, then a 4-5 combination. I then moved on to tutoring. My first year was with Sylvan Learning Center, then with a private tutoring group, One to One Learning Center in Sa ... read more

I have a passion for teaching, and that is the way I teach! I am a high-energy instructor who encourages children to not only reach their goals, but to also readily accept the next challenge as well. I do not teach "at" my students...instead, I teach with them, keeping them engaged and interested in the material...and wanting to learn more! I take a sincere interest in each and every one of my students, and feel that teaching extends far beyond the academics...I essentially make a positive difference in a child's life as their instructor, and knowing that is consistently my greatest reward. .
Having taught and tutored Honors English for both the private and public sector on the elementary, middle, high school, and college level, I am a dynamic enthusiastic instructor with a results-driven mindset.

A Little Bit About Me...

I spent 6 years tutoring my children who were ESE and ADHD and have been tutoring others for a year. My students range from first grade through college in mathematics and grades 1-8 in all subjects and preparation for FCAT, SAT, ACT. I have a BS in Mathematics with a minor in physics and and AAS in data processing. I use a variety of methods to teach effectively.
I have taught many subjects and sports throughout my life. I have always enjoyed teaching. My tutoring results are mirrored in the grades of my students. I usually assess the present situation, attempt to bring the student current, then cover material expected for the grade level that may have been missed. A good basic knowledge and ongoing supervision with attention to student organization provides lasting results.

More About This Tutor...

Throughout high school and college, I've always excelled in my school work. I was president of the math club and often tutored my peers during my spare time. The University of Florida has provided me with a well rounded education, and I feel myself knowledgable in many areas, from languages like french, spanish and hindi, to the sciences like chemistry, biology, and physics. I'm also very familiar with writing term papers.
I like to teach by example and immersion. So much of what schools preach today is rote memorization, and to a certain degree, this cannot be avoided. But whenever possible, I like to try and find real world applications and demonstrations to get my lessons across to my pupil.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is based on; first instilling in the student that they "can" learn and there is nothing they cannot achieve. I teach them through building on successes and the skills they already know, then introduce new skills and practice applying them to real life situations where this step allows the students to see the relevancy of what they are doing. I believe in providing a multitude of verbal praise for each step of learning. I believe in encouraging students to ask questions and not be afraid to say for the one hundreth time, "I dont get it".
My work experience over the last 25 years has been a variety of private tutoring, public schools, and a residential treatment center. I have experience working with all ages of children from kindergarten to college level. I specialize in teaching children with learning disabilites, or students who seem to struggle with learning ... read more

The cultivation of a positive relationship with the student is at least as important for successful teaching as is a thorough understanding of the subject matter. Even a teacher who sees a student for just an hour a week can become a mentor and role model who has a profound and lifelong impact. Confidence is contagious--positive reinforcement and unwavering enthusiasm for the process of learning can, with patience, ignite even the most reluctant student's natural impulse to grow and improve. High standards are best maintained by repeated expressions of faith in the student's ability to meet them. Teaching is a creative process: the individual personality of each student is the starting point for the creation of a teaching method subtly different from any that has existed before.
