I have lead several study groups with varying success. Students need to discover that the education they seek is well within their grasp. I have tutor students of various ages and learning levels, no one is unteachable and every student has the potential to grasp any concept. Students need the proper motivation and learning to be fun and engaging. When abstract concepts are related to real world subject matter students grasp the ideas with more success. It is my goal to help your learner find uses for everything they feel that they learn in school without purpose.
I believe in the constructionist theory of education, children come with some knowledge of the world and need that to be the basis of anything new they learn. Build on the ideas they already have and make learning fun.

More About This Tutor...

I worked full-time for Okeechobee Eckerds Juvenile home for boys and the Polk County School District. In these positions, I was a reading teacher. I did work many years as a teacher, aide, and assistant that taught special needs learners to strengthen writing, math, and reading difficulties. Hence this gave me experience with many learning situations like one on one and whole group studious conditions. At all academic levels at Elmira College, I helped students to succeed at their scholarly endeavors. As a parent, I guided own daughters to be successful learners. This makes me an excellent candidate to help the next generation to be set on the pathway to thrive in their life vision.
My teaching is guided by the needs of my learners; hence, I create learning by setting my students on their needs and interests to life-long academic endeavors. On this journey, I help to develop stra ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My style is a hands on approach to problem solving by trying to look at a problem or question and breaking it down to its simplest level and then building it back up to the level necessary to answer the question or solve a problem. I encourage students to think logically and completely so that they do not stop as soon as they think of one way of solving a problem but that they look to see if there are other, better ways to do so, specifically to see if there is a method that will help them solve not just the problem presently before them but one that will guide them to a correct answer in similar situations.
I have practiced law for more than 25 years. From 1987 to 1997 I taught paralegal classes, mostly to older teens and adults. In 2006-2007 I substitute taught at the local school district in New York where I lived at that time. I am able to effectively share my knowledge and ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have taught elementary through high school special education as well as regular education course loads. I have experience in alternative school settings, juvenile justice, and public school, as well as GED prep work. I regularly integrate technology into instruction and attend professional development opportunities when they are provided.
I believe instructors should be fair and knowledgeable in order to be effective educators. I believe allowing students to have some flexibility and leadership in their own learning makes a more enthusiastic and motivated student. I believe instruction should be purposeful, meaningful, and appropriate for what each student is required and capable of attaining. I also use assessments (formal and informal) to measure and adjust learning goals for all students regularly.

A Little Bit About Me...

I attempt to increase student self-esteem in my teaching style, promoting trust through clear communication. Students differ across cultural, financial and personality traits. Accepting and respecting these differences is key to providing each child with the best possible education. I’ve learned to develop respect and trust through clear communication of expectations, establishment of boundaries, positive reinforcement and encouraging students to provide feedback. I also work to increase student self-esteem and sense of achievement. As a martial arts instructor, I’ve developed the skills to ensure that even the meekest child can become a leader. I achieve this progress through a disciplined environment and through the use of formal recognition, which increases each student’s sense of accomplishment.
I have over 15 years experience instructing martial arts to children as young as ... read more

I have an Interdisciplinary Social Science degree from the University of South Florida. While attending college, I worked as a nanny/tutor for 2 years. My time involved tutoring a young boy in all school subjects in 4th, 5th, and 6th grade. Not only did I help him with homework, but I also helped him learn study skills and organizational strategies. During the 2 years I spent with him, he went from a “B” student to an” A” student. I have knowledge in most school subjects, but I do especially well in anything involving history, geography, and basic math.
I love spending time with children and teaching them new things. It is exciting to see children learn and make progress in school. When dealing with a child that I do not know, I like to have them talk. I think talking to children about anything, not just school, can help form a relationship with them. I also like the parents to b ... read more
