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

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. One on one or group. Lessons taught, homework assigned, then follow up of homework assignment.

Tutoring is not my part-time job, it is a full time endeavor. I tutor in many subjects including Elementary, Middle and High School curriculums. I tutor all ages. By working with my students, their parents and teachers, we formulate a plan and goals for our sessions. Sometimes I am a tutor for a test, or a coach for a project or a study skills adviser. I have experience working with students with ADHD and those with specific learning issues and IEP's.

I believe that all students can and will achieve academic success given appropriate instruction; i.e., instruction that is differentiated according to students' specific needs, learning styles, interests, and personal goals. As a classroom teacher and as a personal tutor, I have seen almost miraculous results in a relatively short period of time, both in terms of academic achievement and student confidence. Passion and enthusiasm for learning is contagious, and I am a carrier. For a dedicated instructor, nothing is more satisfying than watching a student "catch" the learning bug. After attending (and teaching in) a graduate program in American/British Literature and Language at L.S.U., I realized that my true calling was teaching. I began teaching English, Journalism, S.A.T. Prep., Latin, and other subjects in Springfield, MA in 2003 in an alternative, urban high school. I taught

Wyzant certified in SAT - Math and SAT - Verbal; 1390 PSAT score. I bring a friendly and patient approach to tutoring. I know hiring a tutor can be a challenging process and a tough decision to make.

I owe it to my students to make the material fun and interesting. I have over 5000 hours (nearly 10 years) of tutoring experience, including the SAT, ACT, GRE, GMAT, LSAT and other selected subjects. I have been helping high school and college students get accepted to undergraduate and graduate programs all over the United States, including UF, Michigan, Stanford, FSU, UCF, and many others. My first teaching experience was with the Department of Juvenile Justice when I was fresh out of college. It was, believe it or not, a lot of fun! When I went on t

I was a National Merit Semifinalist, meaning my PSAT score was in the top 5% of the country sophomore year. I prefer to work with motivated students. I enjoy one on one tutoring best, but I can work in a group setting. I think I am best at explaining concepts verbally. Particularly when I tutor math, I like to explain the reasoning and concepts behind what I am teaching, rather than encouraging rote memorization. For SAT and ACT prep, I think it is primarily a matter of explaining the structure of the test and teaching ways to address different questions. The content is important and I can teach that as well, but the key to high scores is familiarity with the layout of the test. I have tutored in math from 6th through 12th grade previously. I have a 4.5600 GPA and have often helped my fellow students. I have tutored my friend's brother in various subjects, and have been able to work wit

I use the material that the student is familiar with to enhance the students understanding of the principles and processes that are being emphasized. I bring supplemental material for the subject area and use it as needed. Primarily, the student works problems or exercises that are required in front of me. The student verbalizes the steps and thinking processes about the subject so that I can correct fundamentals and errors in logic. I have tutored math, business and science courses for high school students and adults for the last 20 years. I have tutored for standardized tests (ASVAB, FCAT, PSAT, SAT, ACT, etc) for the last 15 years - saving parents many thousands of dollars in tuition fees. I have also assisted students with homework help, time management and study skills.

Teachers,as well as students, need to take responsibility for their actions. I have always given 100 percent to my students, and I expect students to give their all in return. I understand all too well, however, that many students suffer from disabilities which interfere with their educations. I have taken that understanding under consideration when instructing. I love more than anything a student who thanks me for my influence or teaching ability; I love more than anything opening a world of learning in a student. Holding a BA in English Education, I graduated valedictorian from my college. During my formal years of education, I worked as a tutor for the Manchester, N.H. School District. After graduation, I obtained seventh-grade teaching position. After three years, I obtained an English teaching position in an academy, where I taught the following courses for seven years: British L

I am very passionate about my profession and take it seriously, but still make learning fun. I taught two years of Intensive Reading and worked with students who scored a level 1 on Reading FCAT. My students made remarkable gains on their scores, many earned a grade-level score in Reading on the next test. I have also taught elementary and high school students as a tutor and test prep coach. I enjoy working with students of all ages and helping them reach their goals and succeed. My teaching style is serious, but fun. I want students to know that I care about their success and believe they are capable of doing great things. I am a very caring, very patient teacher. I like to build motivation in my students, as well as a desire to become a life-long learner. I teach many learning strategies, but emphasize students to learn how to activate these strategies at the right time.

As a person with a Bachelors degree and masters, I feel as though I am fully qualified to teach in numerous areas. I always excelled in subjects in high school, undergraduate courses and my master's level classes. Teaching to me comes quite easy. I have a great way of making sure the student fully understands all concepts and can apply them to any question or problem that the student may see in the future. I will adjust my learning techniques to fit the student to ensure the student is learning at an optimal level.
