Possessing strong academic qualifications and leadership give me the advantage in helping others. I offer great ideas and have established expectations that administer consistency and fairness as a leader overseeing the needs of others. Communication is not only speaking but active listening. As an active listener, I offer feedback and answer questions that assist in the learning process. My proactive role in lesson planning is geared toward guided learning. Engaging creatively and intellectually with the students in multiple languages at the secondary and adult levels allows me the unique opportunity to create, maintain, manage, and consistently improve educational relationships with diverse populations. As a contented student at Full Sail University, I am pursuing a Master's in Fine Arts in Creative Writing. I volunteer for Graduate Honors research in Latino/a Caribbean Studies at the

Tutoring is not my part-time job, it is a full time endeavor. I tutor in many subjects including Elementary, Middle and High School curriculums. I tutor all ages. By working with my students, their parents and teachers, we formulate a plan and goals for our sessions. Sometimes I am a tutor for a test, or a coach for a project or a study skills adviser. I have experience working with students with ADHD and those with specific learning issues and IEP's.

After attending (and teaching in) a graduate program in American/British Literature and Language at L.S.U., I realized that my true calling was teaching. I began teaching English, Journalism, S.A.T. Prep., Latin, and other subjects in Springfield, MA in 2003 in an alternative, urban high school. I taught (and tutored after school) until I moved to Florida in 2009, when my spouse began graduate studies at U.S.F. Since then, I have continued to tutor a wide range of students in subjects ranging from high school Latin, 5th grade Math, college English, S.A.T. and G.E.D. Preparation, and graduate level writing, and I have extensive training and experience with students who struggle with dyslexia, ADD/ADHD and ESL issues, as well as with children diagnosed with Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) and Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD). I believe that all students can and will achieve academ

Qualified in this subject by WyzAnt. In my teaching, I make every effort to engage the attention of my students. While covering the subject at hand, I bring into my lessons references to a spectrum of other subjects when relevant such as historical context, cultural elements, literary allusions, modern and historical implications and facts and trivia relating to the subject which I believe will not only be of interest to the student but will also provide a more rounded appreciation of the benefits of a wide ranging education. For the greater part of my life I have been involved in various facets of education. I have acted as substitute teacher at the middle and high school levels for a total of 10 years, 8 of which were spent at 12 schools in Vermont and 2 at 10 schools in Hernando County FL. I held the position of Senior ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages) with a highly re

I emphasize individual techniques tailored to the needs of each student. I am patient and work at rates and times suitable to each student. I have tutored in Social Studies and English. Because I am very literate, I am able to work with students to help them learn difficult language and social studies constructs. I taught for thirty years at Oak Hills High School in Cincinnati, Ohio. I taught Social Studies with an emphasis on Psychology and History of the American West. I taught at the College of Mt. St. Joseph on the Ohio during the 1980's with an emphasis on Psychology and Technical Writing. I tutored two students while we lived in Key West, Florida during 2003.

As a graduate of the University of Florida, I earned a BS degree in Education and Business. While interning at Gainesville High School I learned that understanding teen-agers was the key to teaching. Students are sometimes confused that education and goal setting are much more important than social satisfaction/needs. Key here is to listen, learn and be patient with the student to grab their needs and utilize their strenths. Thank you. When you figure out the motivational and emotional needs of a child, teaching becomes easier but still a challenge. When a student can grasp the basics/core of a subject and really absorb this beginning information, we can move forward using their abilities of discovery regarding the subject. I look forward to assisting in the future of their educational development. Thank you.

I am truly passionate about teaching and instruction of any kind. Born in Manchester, England, I have taught English, French and Math to students in England, France and the United States respectively during summer school as well as part of a National Service program. I have also mentored and instructed teenage girls in Washington, DC. as part of a girls mentoring program initiated by former First Lady Laura Bush. I continue to “instruct” on my own time and give assistance to kids/teenagers where and when they need it. Having earned a BA in English as well as a BA in French, I had the opportunity to strengthen analytical reading and writing in both languages; design and construct essays/reports. Both undergrad and grad school prepared me for the world of consulting. My instruction skills in my place of employment included designing and developing a global sales model to help streng

With a Bachelors of Science degree in Biology, minor in Mathematics and pursuing M.A.T Mathematics, I have taught foundational to advanced levels of mathematics, chemistry and biology. In addition I have developed proven strategies to succeed and improve PSAT, SAT, ACT, GMAT, NET, CRCT, EOCT, GRE, COMPASS, and GED Scores. My strengths include over 5 years of experience of breaking down tougher concepts into smaller, easy-to-understand concepts, connecting concepts to real life, inspiring a love for learning, and exploring new ways of teaching. I like to lay a strong foundation with rudimentary concepts, and make learning fun for all grades, ages and backgrounds. Every child has a unique learning style; some learn by reading out a loud, some learn better through visual representations, but many have a mixed learning style. My teaching style depends on my students’ learning style. I us

During the last eight years I have tutored students in all subjects I have taken - math, physics, chemistry, biology, etc. I am especially fluent in the sciences as a result of having attended MIT. My writing skills are especially strong as well, due to my choice of major, and I believe I could be an asset to all types of students, especially older students. I enjoy tutoring children of all ages. I have nephews whom I tutor that are five and six, and have during the last eight years tutored many children in middle, high school and college. Because I have been very succesful myself in academics, I am often able to show children the simplest path to becoming successful - whether it is a trick to solving algebra problems or creating an outline to make an essay seem like an easily surmountable task. I believe there are very few children who do not want to excel in school and even fewer

During the fall of 2008, I worked for the USF Honors College as a tutor for the Jenkins Scholars Program on campus. I was responsible for the academic progress of a student throughout the semester in her main classes. I served as an outlet of moral and social support as well, aiding her in decisions regarding career choices, acting in the role of mentor. I relayed methods of stress relief, time management, test anxiety, and various strategies to overcome the freshman experience. I assisted this student as well as others in finding other mentors. I expanded upon this experience by tutoring other students in mathematics, particularly for college entrance exams. One of the styles I used and obtained from this experience is the relaying and thoroughly explaining information to others in a one-on-one situation. I learned to evaluate learning styles and to adjust information for it to be best
