Fun and Loving Tutor!

I have tutored fellow classmates, and I have often helped my siblings and friends with homework. I have helped students with reading. I graduated high school with a 3.99 GPA, and I was the valedictorian of my sixth grade class. I won a spelling bee in fifth grade. I placed second in a spelling bee in eighth grade.
I teach in different ways depending on how the student learns best.

I have earned a bachelor’s degree in History and English, as well as a master’s degree in teaching. My educational background has given me a wide range of knowledge in the humanities, and my liberal arts education has helped me develop high reading and writing skills. I have four years of experience running writing workshops and tutoring first-year college students and non-native English speakers in study skills. From these experiences, I have gained expert knowledge in teaching literacy and study skills. Also, from my time teaching at a public high school, I am very familiar with the types of expectations teachers have of students and can help students "crack the code" of multiple choice, short answer, and research assignments and tests.
My teaching philosophy and style is founded upon the belief that all children are brilliant and can succeed. My approach to teaching is highly in ... read more

Teaching has been my career ever since I entered a primary classroom at age 16 and finished teaching graduate and undergraduate students. I was trained as a teacher at The Leewards Teachers' Training College (in Antigua), an affiliate of University of the West Indies (Jamaica). As a Primary and Secondary School teacher, I taught English Grammar, Mathematics, and the Social Sciences. Although I have strong mathematical skills, I present myself here primarily as an English teacher, because of my expert facility with the grammar, usage, and vocabulary of the language. At my last graduate school (Vanderbilt U., Nashville, TN), I was employed by the Graduate Dept. of Religion as the Writing Tutor for graduate students who were preparing their term papers for professors. My assignment was to help students present papers free of grammatical errors and with correct stylistic composition, precise ... read more

Education is more than valuable

I usually review the assignments,its objectives,and apply reasoning to the work, so the end result makes more sense. It's easier to remember when it makes sense to you.
I typically provide homework help,studying tips, and methods of memorization. My strength is in writing, proofreading, spelling and punctuation,grammar, and reading comprehension. Other skills include public speaking skills, presentation skills, and thinking through the problem in order to move past the problem. In most instances, the metbod to overcoming academic obstacles, the way to overcome is in your approach.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been working with children since mine were in school (2001). I have assisted Teachers in every grade from K through grade 5, I absolutely love it. It is my passion to help students learn and excel. It is my belief that reading and understanding is the key to success. I also believe that children should feel comfortable with their abilities that is why I use a calm approach and depending on the child a "playful" approach to learning. We learn and retain through our muscles so the more we move the more we retain, outside is great place to learn, if possible. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help your child achieve their goals to success. You can email me at mandihartman@embarqmail.com

A Little Bit About Me...

I taught an Introductory Geology lab for 2 years. I have been tutoring out side of that for the last year or so. I have tutored elementary students all the way up to college students. One of the elementary students I tutored had ADHD. The subjects I have prominently tutored are math and science. Although I am confident in English as well.

"Knowledge is power & enthusiasm pulls the switch" -S. Droke

I don't like to tell you what to learn, but rather guide you to see it for yourself, allowing you to come to the right conclusion on your own. Helping you teach yourself, so that when the time comes for that test or that epic paper, you will know you can do it because you know it.
I have my A.A. degree in Theatre and Communications and will be receiving my Bachelor of Arts degree in Creative Writing with a minor in Film Studies in December of 2012. I have experience with children ranging from grades K-12th. I have been a Teacher's Aide since 2004 and a Summer Counselor since 2006. I am also bilingual and although it is not on my list for tutor availability, I do have experience in the language barriers concerning English and the Spanish language. I am Cuban American and wouldn't trade that for the world. It allows me to enjoy the cultures around me as well as given me a thirst to e ... read more

I have worked with the following populations throughout the many years of professional experience: mental health patients - (children & adults), special needs, developmentally disabled, people with learning disabilities, those with ADD/ADHD, Children, Adolescents, and Adults of varying ages and skill sets. I know some sign language so I am able to communicate with others who have little to no hearing. I have worked within the schools and have experience aiding students. I am very flexible and willing to adjust for the needs of the student and meet them where they are in the learning process.
Get to know me and let's discuss your needs.

Out with the old in with the new! Get a tutor today!

My experience has been primarily with children within my school or those around my neighborhood. I find that children are more capable of learning in a stable environment that they are familiar with. Children respond well with well timed incentives and subtle reprimands of lost focus. Students are more likely to acknowledge a lack of concentration skills once their intelligence is put into question. Under my tutoring students are able to concentrate more and see an improvement in their grades. Ill behaved children are more likely to round out their behavior once an appropriate hobby is acquired for them and holds their interests. All materials should be produced based on the individual child's rights.
Repetitious in manner.

My comments on tutoring Reading : I have several, recent years' experience in instructing elementary-level students in the language arts, including Reading Comprehension and Composition.

I enjoy teaching and observing my students' different learning styles. I respect each student's individual method of assimilation. I work hard to accommodate his or her particular needs. I delight in the dynamics of the classroom and strongly believe that I can make a difference in whether the student becomes engaged in the learning process.
I place a high value on formal education and believe strongly in lifelong learning, for the betterment of the individual and, ultimately, for society. While raising three young children, I obtained my undergraduate degree in business administration. In later acquiring a law degree, I was introduced to the rigorous demands of such study and to the fascinating arena of reasoning and analytical thinking required by this discipline. I have tutored young children intermittenly over several years, with one stint of four years length as a Literacy Vo ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have 20 years experience in the marines, so I have a no nonsense approach to teaching and tutoring. My own two children (boys, now grown) will tell you that despite my military bearing, I am patient and understanding with kids. I believe the best way to teach children (or anyone) is to create the conditions that will encourage and allow them to teach themselves. I believe that adults model for children continuously. Children mimic our thought processes and our problem solving techniques. We teach best through example. My goal has always been to give children the tools and self-confidence to think and explore for themselves. I model self-confidence and creative problem solving. I encourage kids to ask questions and develop the skills for finding the answers. I mentor as much as I tutor.
I have always excelled in school. My master's degree GPA is 3.8. my undergraduate degree GPA is ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My role as a teacher is one where I facilitate a process of discovery. When a concept is presented in a lesson, it is followed by practice. In my class, there is room for risk-taking, and the mistakes only help to clarify the idea or concept. I approach the teaching of Reading as a Whole Language process, and also as a set of applied skills. Even though phonics, vocabulary, context clues, and other skills are important, reading for meaning is the ultimate goal.
Summary of Experience I have taught for the last three years (2005-2008) at an Elementary school in Palm Beach County. I taught third grade. This is the grade level where students are expected to pass the Reading portion of the FCAT test in order to be promoted to the next grade. Therefore, one of my main responsibilities was to maintain records of the students’ progress. Prior to that, I was a substitute teacher in ... read more
