PSAT Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Orlando, FL

I'm currently a senior attending Winter Park High School. I have a slew of education and extracurricular related accolades, and have been commended highly for my skills in writing (both creative and professional). My transcript has a long history of Advanced Placement courses and my standardized exam scores are impressive to say the least least (30 ACT, 1800 SAT, multiple AP Exam credits). I actually don't have much experience as a tutor beyond helping classmates study, however throughout my experience in high school I've experimented with and adopted many avant-garde and unorthodox studying techniques and thought processes that have served gratuitously to my benefit, and I'm positive will serve yours as well.

I have always approached a teaching lesson as a learning opportunity. Learning is a fundamental skill. If you don't have your basic fundamentals, your student will have difficulty advancing. So, I always start with basic fundamentals such as; note taking, study skills, and comprehension! All sciences demand the ability to link concepts together. Ex. cells make up tissues, tissues make up organs, organs make up organ systems,etc.....! By understanding the make-up of cellular structures and relating that to tissue functions the students can fully understand a subject. This proves true with all subjects. By impowering the student with good base fundamentals, my students find it easier to link concepts together. I obtained a B.S. in Biology, with a concentration in aquatic science, from Wittenberg University in 2006. During my undergraduate studies, I tutored elementary students in math

I have eight years of tutoring experience for students ranging from second grade to high school seniors. This tutoring has been in a variety of topics, from elementary phonics to high school geometry to handwriting. I have also had experience in tutoring for standardized tests such as the SAT, ACT, and FCAT. Every student has strengths and weaknesses, and these should be determined for efficient tutoring. I believe in helping the student to learn and making sure they have the knowledge and help to understand the material themselves.

I have extensive experience as a k-12 and adult teacher of all subjects (excepting advanced math and science) and as a teacher of technology to all ages, including technophobes:) I offer specific subject tutoring, as well as project-based enrichment programs tailored to a student's interest. My experience is wide-ranging. I have taught home school groups in mixed age groups, created a wilderness eco-learning program in Hawaii, and managed a computer lab for middle/high school students that also trained teachers and developed technology-based curriculum. I love to teach:)

I taught in two public high schools in Orange and Osceola Counties in the Central Florida area for 5 years where I earned the Professional Educators Certificate to teach mathematics 6 - 12. For the past 10 years, I have been teaching at a Huntington Learning Center while privately tutoring students from the area middle, high school, and community colleges. My teaching style adapts to the students current level of knowledge. I always model 2 or 3 problems step by step before asking the student to try a problem. A student is comfortable knowing that I have "their backs" and won't let them be frustrated for long. This gives a student confidence to try problems on their own.

I enjoying teaching all children. I think that diveristy is key to helping a child learn. I am positive, calm, and possess the ability to assess the style in which a child needs to learn. Being a graduate of a Liberal Arts College, I hold a diverse background with various subjects. My skills in reading and writing are extensive. I have tutored students in foriegn language, math, reading, and art.

My teaching strategies became wholly adaptive, tailored to fit the dynamic needs of each grade-level, class, and student. It was common in my classroom to listen to a topical audio excerpt, add to a daily journal geared toward personal contemplation, work in small groups on assignments that enriched the day’s lesson, and participate in whole group, collaborative exercises that reinforced models and worked out unanswered questions. My philosophy followed a strategy of shared learning, and I incorporated choice into my curriculum as an important tool to aide in developing an independently-minded, academically invested student. I have taught a range of curricula from a Sixth Grade Intensive Reading (FCAT Level 1) class that followed a script to an Eighth Grade Advanced Reading course for which I completely designed the syllabus. Such diverse learning groups provided ample challenge in my fi

I graduated from UCF with a Bachelors in Communicative Disorders (speech therapy). I love english and science and found this to be a perfect mix. I worked with children with language delays in group settings and also tutored children individually. I am currently in the process of obtaining my teaching certificate in science and working towards my masters degree. I prefer to work with children who have learning disabilities and/or with a dislike for education. I find that my teaching style is interesting to this particular type of student. I acknowledge the childs dismay in learning and I allow them to help me to adjust the teaching material to a teaching style that best suits the childs learning style. Science and english are subjects that many children don't enjoy. I make it much easier for them to learn the subject and then we expound thier knowledge from there.

As an Air Force spouse I moved with my husband overseas to the island of Guam. Because I have my BA in Christian Education, I was given the opportunity to teach at a school on the island. It was a small school so I was given grades 5th-8th. I taught science, health, and English (language arts, spelling). I have also been employed in the marketing arena in proofreading and copywriting. Currently I am an instructor of children ages 7-12 in a weekly acting class focused on improvisational comedy skills. It never ceases to amaze me how creative a child's mind can be. Due to my education background, I fully understand that each student will learn in a different way. Many are only visual learners, and many are only analytical learners with the remaining learners a combination of both. In my teaching I find each student's specific learning style so I can include it into each of my lessons. I al

I think it is important to give students successful experiences so that they understand learning can be positive and fun and so that they develop a sense of confidence. I am patient, reliable, and great at showing children their individual strengths and abilities, as well as helping them understand the way that they learn best. This means I seek to not only instill an understanding of the material, but I try to help students get better at learning in general and adapting the material for themselves. I really care about teaching and the children I work with, and I want them to become the best learners they can be. Teaching is my passion, and I very much enjoy working with students of all ages. I am currently pursuing certification and a Masters degree to work with students in an English Language Arts classroom, but I have taught and tutored in math, science, vocabulary, reading, writing,

Education, in or out of the classroom is what I do! As a Doctor of Education, I have developed eclectic skills to reach the seemingly most disenfranchised learners. My innate ability to empathize with students provides a bond that emulates my altruistic need to educate. My goal is to have my own tutoring and mentoring service that empowers clients not able to pay the high tutorial fees. I am a community educator! I teach to reach each student at His or Her level of academic competence, in all core subjects. As a retired United States man, the mission of education is my top priority! Education has become my life! I was voted Teacher of the Year at Orange Center ES in 2001, my first full-year of teaching. I received a Disney Teacherrific Award (Mathematics) the year before in 2000 for my enrichment/mentoring/ tutorial services. I teach the seemingly "most challenged" students. I aspire to

I have thoroughly enjoyed instructing young adults, both in the military and in the high school and college settings. Ideally, hands-on learning strategies will be applied to each student, specifically tailored to their needs and goals. In my experience, the linking of instruction to relevent aspects of the students existing knowledge and personal situation is a highly effective technique. Delivering personal education to students and making a difference in their lives has been my goal for many years, and I wish to continue to help those in need. As a former member of the United States Air Force, I have always believed in making a difference in the lives of children and young adults. I have earned degrees in Aerospace Maintenance (AS), History(BA) and Management (BA). I spent the last two years as a high school AP Macro-economics teacher. Currently, I am enrolled at the University of C

Currently I work at an alternative school for students with learning disabilities and behavioral problems teaching Math and Art. Although there is no art program, I voluntarily head up art contests and help students paint murals on the campus. My degrees are in Computer Information Systems, French, and Spanish. After being a Computer Programmer for five years, I decided to become more involved with education. I've taught Math at City College, ESOL at Valencia Community College, and all subjects in elementary schools. I've voluntarily tutored disadvantaged children at a local church and helped my sisters with their homework for years. Overall, I'm a jack-of-all-trades and enjoy discovering the many unique ways students think and learn. My teaching style is clay. It molds itself to fit individual needs. For example, some students need visual aids and some need verbal. Sometimes even these
