More About This Tutor...

I teach either one on one or in groups with the same subject, depending on how many students I get.
I have been taking classes at Daytona State for 1 semester, but like my credentials said, I have gotten awards through them from my Middle School, and high school. I have been tutoring since 2003. I have had multiple students at one time, so group sessions may be common in my teaching. I am in all advanced classes, and I can tutor in just about ever subjects.

Online Music Lessons and Elementary Test Prep/Homework Help

I am currently a general music teacher at Samsula Academy, an elementary school in New Smyrna Beach, FL. I teach general music classes to students in grades K-5, as well as chorus and band. I received my Bachelor's degree from Marywood University in Scranton, PA and began my Master's studies at University of Central Florida. I currently aspire to study Irish traditional music in Ireland in the near future, and would continue to offer online tutoring services during those studies. At Samsula Academy, I offer private music lessons. I have mostly taught piano, but I also have taught trumpet, trombone, drums, flute, clarinet, saxophone, and violin. As a part of my undergraduate studies, I took methods courses in all band and orchestra instruments, so I am trained to teach most anything. I also have experience assisting in the elementary classrooms in reading, writing, and math, and preparing ... read more

My comments on tutoring Florida Writes : I grew up in Florida, so I am familiar with the content.

Although I have never tutored professionally, I have had extensive experience tutoring friends and family in need. I am experienced in tutoring young children as well as classroom peers at my level. I have two bachelor degrees from UCF, Bio-medical Science and Psychology, and I feel confident in my ability to help anyone learn. I'm looking to earn extra money while completing my Master's degree at UCF.

A Little Bit About Me...

Educating children is something I’ve always had a passion for. When the time came to pick a career I knew education was right for me. After completing four years of college courses and many volunteer hours, my passion has only strengthened. I’ve had extensive experience with one-on-one, small group, and large group tutoring/teaching. Throughout my education at the University of Central Florida I had a strong focus on teaching ESOL students and even had the opportunity to tutor an ESOL student one-on-one. After graduating with a B.S. in Elementary Education, I completed the Emergent Literacy for VPK course which enabled me to teach Voluntary Pre-Kindergarten for a year.
Through my education and personal experience teaching there is one common theme; all students learn differently. In my classroom I’ve used many different teaching styles to accommodate each student’s learning n ... read more

I have a wide range of teaching experience with K-12 students who have difficulty learning in a mainstream classroom. My academic background consists of a M.A.T. in Elementary Education, a B.A. in Audiology, and seven credit hours in graduate coursework. I have a valid Florida teaching license. My work history includes being a EDEP group leader and substitute teacher for Volusia County School District, teaching first grade, and working as a teacher of the hearing impaired and speech assistant for K-12 students in several public school systems.
My teaching style addresses each student as an individual with unique abilities and strengths. I believe that it is important to create a positive learning environment for the child and instill a "can-do" attitude. I approach the teaching of a difficult concept by evaluating the child's current level of knowledge and using task analysis ... read more

I enjoy children very much, feel each is unique and has an avenue thru which to best learn. Being educated (Masters)in special needs I am more sensitive and equipped to meet individual needs and styles. I use lots of positive reinforcement when I teach, praise, stickers, and redirection when needed.
I am a former teacher and I taught 2nd grade as well as learning disability resource grades K-5. I tutored last Spring with SES in Greenville SC. I have a valid certification for life in the state of Kentucky in Elementary and special ed.

I enjoy working with adults and children of all ages. I recognize that every one learns differently and at variety of paces. My method focuses on grasping the "big picture" and exploring the details there after. Fun is a critical element of my approach and I encourage chidren and adults to relax and enjoy the learning experience.
With six years experience privately tutoring basic mathematics and algebra, I am excited for the opportunity to tutor for Advanced Learners. I have earned a Bachelors Degree in Psychology and have completed up to College Pre-Calculus. These experiences have provided me with the tools necessary to be a viable asset to your team.

A Little Bit About Me...

What is my teaching style? My teaching style varies as to the students I am working with. Every child is unique in his/her own way. Children learn differently and it is up to us as teachers to investigate how do they learn best. This way, we can better serve the needs of ALL our students. A child can be a Visual, Auditory, Tactile/Kinesthetic learner, and/or a Musical learner. What is my teaching style? I teach according to the needs of my student. I believe that every child has the potential to succeed! As teachers, we need to accommodate to their learning styles because not every child learns the same way. Students should not be accommodating to ours!

I am used to giving a good deal of individual instruction. I always begin at the skill level that will insure success of the student. I believe in finding the positives and abilities of the student. When working with small groups, I have strategies to see that each student is attending. I also believe that one must convey an attitude of care and concern for each student. However,it is also important to remain professional so the student knows that business is at hand.
I have been employed by Volusia County Schools for the last 20 years. I recently retired due to the fact that I was ready to work part time. I taught 16 years at Middle School. During that time I worked as a self-contained teacher for the mildly handicapped. I also taught ESOL for five years. After that, I spent four years teaching Elementary. Additionally, I tutored in the home bound program for a few years. ... read more

I spent much time in college working with local teachers and tutoring their students. Upon graduation, I spent a year teaching 4th grade in a private school. In Florida, I continued teaching in a private setting, which was unique as it provided enriching education opportunities year-round. Here I developed my philosophy of education through instructing multi-age classrooms, developing and tailoring curriculum, and participating in entry-level administrative duties. In my recent Public Charter School experience, I instructed multi-grade and single-grade classes, continued tutoring, served on the REA Executive Board, functioned as the school-wide Testing Coordinator, and was an Assistant Principal Trainee.
My goal as a teacher is to meet the individual needs of students, teaching them “how” to learn, and guiding them towards their full potential as learners and citizens. I strive ... read more

I teach by example, by first modeling my expectations or skill. Then letting the students model the skill with me. Then, I allow the students time to practice the skill. I believe the proper term is scaffolding. I am a direct teacher there is no misunderstanding in the messages or instruction that I convey. I am also a good listener and understand when a student is struggling. I have effectively taught reading to students and have brought up their ORF scores, comprehension scores, and vocabulary scores in a nine week period. I have done this with hard work, persistence, and determination on both my part and the students part.
I have worked as support staff for six years. This November I passed my state boards and received my 5 year professional teaching license in ESE K-12 education. This past April I passed my NCLB qualifications for Elementary Education K-6. I am currently purs ... read more
