Economics Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in North Palm Beach, FL

My name is Alex and I'm going to graduate from the University of Miami in 2018. I find that the classes that I excel in are the ones I am most interested in, and the classes that I find myself less interested in, I make more interesting. I believe there is no way to retain information that is taught unless there is a general wanting to learn. My main goal is to improve a student's mind by finding ways that they can fall in love with a particular subject. Personally, I love microbiology and immunology because I find it being a very relevant to the human body. Economics, on the other hand, is less applicable to my likes, but I found a way to love it. I love sports, so after doing some basic research on major economic markets in the sports industry, I found a way to relate to the subject and my grade in the class skyrocketed. Rather than forcing knowledge to a student, I find it much more

Business student at Florida Atlantic University. I graduated from A.W. Dreyfoos School of the Arts with honors in the visual arts, specializing in Architecture and Mathematics. I have also tutored for 4 years now while in school by teaching a wide variety of subjects to students from the ages of 5-20. I use a Reciprocal/Practice based tutoring style. This an effective method because it allows me to interact with the student and help them grow more efficiently while holding an open discussion environment in each lesson. I then reinforce it with practice based assignments which are followed up with reviews in the beginning of the following class. This makes the student not only memorize definitions, but to also understand the reasoning behind different concepts.

I have had the opportunity to observe all levels and exceptionalities of education. I believe that each student has a unique learning style and unique interests. Therefore, it is my job as a teacher to tailor a lesson in a way that makes it relatable and comprehensible to each student. I graduated from Stetson University in 2005 with a major in Psychology and a minor in Education. While attending Stetson University I observed in all levels and exceptionalities within the Volusia County schools and completed a semester of student teaching. I also volunteered at DeLand Middle School where I tutored an eighth grade student, and at McGinnis Elementary School where I tutored first and second grade ESOL students. I then attended the English Nanny and Governess school and received my certification as a Governess. During the 2006-2007 school year I taught ninth grade World History at Spruc

I emphasize the fundamentals in whatever subject/discipline I am tutoring and try to do so in a positive, enthusiastic approach that respects and utilizes the specific skill sets and personality of the student. I graduated from Stetson University in 1979 with a B.B.A. in Finance and worked for the next 22 years as a full-time investment advisor. Therefore, I am well groomed in business administration and finance. In 2001 I graduated from UCF with a Master's in History and have taught history (American, European and World) at the college level, as well as tutoring at the junior high and senior high school level in a number of subjects. I am also an award-winning writer and editor having served as Editor in Chief for a number of publishers and possess exemplary writing/grammatical skills of which I am eager to utilize as a tutor.

While completing my Master's degree in Food and Resource Economics at the University of Florida, I was a teaching assistant holding office hours for students in two courses: Agricultural Economics and Data Analysis in Agricultural Economics. After completing my Master's degree, I began teaching mathematics on the high school level and became certified in mathematics grades 6-12 through the State of Florida. I taught high school mathematics for three and half years. I currently am not teaching in the classroom but want the opportunity to continue working with students through tutoring in mathematics and economics. I believe that all students learn differently and that there is no one correct teaching style. Teaching must be adapted for the learning style of each individual student. Through that type of teaching, I believe that all students are able to reach their full potential.

There are numerous reasons why a parent or guardian may want to hire a tutor. Perhaps their generally successful student is having trouble keeping up in math. Or maybe the child is having trouble focusing and needs someone to help them hone their problem-solving skills. Perhaps the student simply has poor organization or study habits. A successful tutor must be flexible, ready to cope with any circumstance that may arise. I believe that flexibility and patience are the most important traits a tutor can have. During my time at Rice, I tutored at-risk elementary school students for one year at an after-school day care program (mostly math and reading). A year or so later I began working for a private tutoring company, teaching middle school and high school students math, writing skills, time management skills, social studies, and science. After college I spent about eight months teaching E

People learn and retain information by doing and experiencing, so I teach through exercises and activity. Of course, some instances call for demonstration and explanation, but this would be boring and tedious if it was the main focus. Creative and proper use of language is my passion, as reflected in my educational background. While in school, I studied Journalism, Psychology, Marketing, Advertising, and Communications. I was a scholarship recipient and student of the University's Honors Program where I studied and analyzed art, literature, and architecture. I continue to use my grammatical skills to edit student papers and work as a freelance writer.

I feel that the relationship formed between tutor and student is as important as the information being taught. A sincere concern for people is the foundation for successful and influential teaching. I gladly spent extra time planning an English lesson if it allowed the student to connect better with the material. To keep interest levels high, I would teach a lesson and then create practice exercises around one of the student's favorite hobbies such as cooking, surfing, or music. These exercises aided comprehension and retention while providing a fun and enjoyable learning experience. I believe in challenging students, giving them the tools they need to meet that challenge, and watching them succeed! I recently graduated with the highest honors from the University of Florida. I double-majored in economics and international relations with a minor in business administration, giving me bot

I like to think of my teaching style as being able to adapt to the way the student learns. I believe being able to find the best way a student learns helps them by making sense of the subject. There are many different ways to relate different subjects to everyday life/events that can clearify a lot for a student. This is what I will bring as a tutor. In high school I tutored my peers in both Algebra I and Algebra II. I have found great accomplishment from the students I have tutored through their accomplishments in the classroom. As a college student I tutored in both writing as well as math. I am looking to get back into tutoring to feel the sense of accomplishment that I had previously felt with my other students.
