Vocals Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Neptune Beach, FL

I have always been a teacher. I taught swimming when I was 14 and French to fifth graders when I was in high school. I love working in education. I believe that all people, young and old, can learn and reach their potential. My teaching style is calm and patient. I have a good sense of humor and am creative. However, I have high expectations for my students and for myself. I find joy in learning and believe that teaching allows me to share this joy. I have been a teacher for 40 years. I retired because family care-giving required my full attention. My studies prepared me to teach and my experience prepared me to meet the needs of each student. I am experienced in all areas of Language Arts; reading, writing, grammar and literature as well as elementary math, history, psychology and the arts. I can help students with the organizational and learning skills that are important in

Rock/Blues are my main influences. I also teach Metal and Folk (sounds crazy, I know!) I've been a professional guitarist for 25 years. I've Played on and/or produced countless records. I opened The Music Studio in 2006. The main focus was Rock n' Roll (Guitar, Bass, Drums, Keyboards and Vocals. We had 4 teaching rooms where me and my staff would teach each student the same song in the same time slot, and they would perform it after a 2 or 3 month period. We also had a top of the line recording studio where I produced bands from around the US and Sweden. We also used it to record our students

I believe that you need to learn a language with an expert. A person who not only speaks the language, but someone who can teach it. A language instructor needs to be a professional teacher/trainer with the necessary education and experience to lead students of all ages and backgrounds, to an enjoyable learning experience. Someone who is comfortable and competent teaching a large class, a small group or one-on-one tutoring. Although computer programs, web sites, online lessons, audio and video lessons can be helpful, they do not replace the face to face interaction with an experienced native language instructor. My credentials include Spanish teaching at Florida State College at Jacksonville since 1997, Scala Language Consultants, and Sea Coast Christian Academy in Jacksonville, Florida, as well as English as second language at the ESL Institute. I have taught private lessons in othe

Each student engages homework in a different way. For example, some with a lackadaisical approach, some with a sense of being overwhelmed, some that are missing fundamentals and some unable to self-check. The one thing all students have in common: the desire to learn is in their minds. It may be pushed aside, but all students feel the power of knowledge. I am very friendly and tolerant, yet straightforward. I am clear about responsibilities and expectations. I won't waste anyone's time, nor take a paycheck for accomplishing nothing. I can communicate in a simple way the circumstances of a situation and make insightful assessments on student's work. For the last nine years, except for one break to finish my college degree, I worked at the Boys & Girls Club of Erie County. My primary job was director of education, where most of my time was spent tutoring, teaching and helping with homew

I am very driven to achieve a high level of education. I have a Bachelors in Accounting and Masters in Business Administration. I am working to complete my law degree and have worked as a CFO and CAO in Fortune 1000 companies. I am technological savy and have been a CIO in Fortune 1000 companies as well. The only experience I have with students is working as a adjunct professor in Accounting at UNF. I can work with students in math,English,business and accounting. I also recently received my Law degree and passed the LSAT test. Students learn at different rates and are motivated to learn many different ways. You have to quickly identify their passion and then incorporate that passion in their education. All people young and old can reach their goals if you have patience and let them know you care about them and their future.

Since high school, my passion for telling stories led me to my degree in Journalism. I worked as a professional news reporter for two medium market stations and was on my way to work for a larger market. My career took a turn for the better and I found my calling was education. I have always coached and been a choreographer, so working with children and helping them succeed was also a passion. I hope to utilize my skills in writing and communications, as well as my discipline and focus skills I acquired in band, cheer and dance, to help students succeed. My teaching style is very hands-on. I believe in practical knowledge and showing students several different ways to understand something. I also believe in providing students the opportunity to figure out solutions to problems on their own with encouragement, instead of just having them copy what I say. I also believe that all lea

I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children are smart and can learn they just need someone who has the patience and ability to teach them as I do. I like it when children discover knowledge on their own so I like giving them feedback to help them realize the answers on their own and feel like they really have accomplished something. The look on the face of a child when he or she finally understands is priceless! I hold dual Masters degrees in Architecture and Construction and I have a passion for teaching. While earning my masters degree in construction I was a teachers assistant for construction courses and enjoyed teaching and helping over sixty students learn the material. While I was getting my first degree, which was in architecture, I worked at a music school and taught classes to children ages 4 and up. Currently I have been mentoring a middle school ch

As the parent of a college student with Asperger’s and several learning disabilities, I know firsthand that connecting with a teacher who is kind, creative, patient, and most of all, who believes in her students, can make a world of difference to someone who is struggling to learn. I am that teacher. I strive to understand my students’ individual learning styles, drawing upon Multiple Intelligence theory when appropriate. I have high expectations for my students and will not let them take the easy way out. I am also my students’ biggest cheerleader, celebrating every learning victory, big or small. I have yet to meet a child who cannot or does not want to learn; the challenge is finding the key that will unlock their door to success. I started tutoring students in Hebrew when I was fourteen years old, and continued as a teacher's assistant throughout high school. I loved teaching a

I have both the educational credentials as well as the work experience to be an effective tutor. As a professional, I have experience working in both the education and social work fields. This has given me a unique perspective on working with at-risk students. I have not only tutored and mentored elementary and middle school students, I have worked with them on goal-setting and behavior modification, provided counseling and family advocacy, and coordinated community services. My one and only passion has always been children. I strongly believe that every child should be respected and given an equal opportunity for success. In my experience, most children learn best through hands-on learning opportunities. Paper-and-pencil work has its place, however, I find it's important to provide other methods of teaching that cater to different types of learners such as kinesthetic and auditor

During my time in high school, I started going to math tutoring to work on my homework. There was one fantastic teacher, and many students. When I would finish my homework, I would help others. Later, in college, I passed math and once again found myself helping others. When a work-study position opened up, the learning assistance program hired me as an in-class tutor/teacher’s assistant. The program switched directors, and I began working one-on-one with students who required an individual instructor. During the summer, I worked for the ‘Bridge’ program wherein we assisted students who had difficulty transitioning between high school and college. I like to encourage people to pursue their potential. I hate busy-work, and try to give assignments that work on multiple levels; therefore, even if the student may not immediately see success in a trouble area, the student can be encouraged by

I thoroughly enjoy teaching all ages, and because of my wide variety of experiences, I am able to keep the learning activities varied, relevant, and interesting. Working with so many ages and nationalities, I've become acutely aware of the many different styles of learning, and work hard to find methods that appeal to every learning style. I took the Montessori Method courses in my twenties, and was so fascinated by it I decided to get a degree in Elementary Education with a minor in Early Childhood. From there, I went to on to teach all elementary grades and subjects in both private and public schools. For a time, I taught English as a Second Language to both children and adults, and then moved into my favorite area, music! Throughout all these fields of interest, one constant remains: learning is what keeps life dynamic, no matter what our age might be!

My B.S. in Elementary Education has provided twenty-five years of teaching in a wide range of experiences. I have taught K3-8 grade students, including those considered “at-risk” due to emotional and behavioral difficulties or learning differences, in traditional and outdoor classroom settings. I was able to integrate numerous evaluation methods and projects, including construction of 3-D artistic replicas, and student written, directed and acted skits. In addition, I incorporated the Internet and other news sources to further current event discussion. The emphasis of my work has been on teaching critical and effective reading and writing skills in regards to all subjects. A thinking student is a student who understands. Throughout my teaching, I have adapted the classroom to complement and enrich each student’s learning style, a challenge I thoroughly enjoy. I believe in consideri

I have experience in working with children and young people in my missions and humanitarian work. I have lead teams of teenagers and worked with children in local schools, orphanages, and community organizations. I also worked at a daycare during my internship in 2004. Everyone is special and unique in how they learn and incorporate new information. I like to get to know people to understand how they can learn on their skill level. Patience and understanding is key when working with students and young people because everyone is different and special.
