One on one or group. Lessons taught, homework assigned, then follow up of homework assignment.

Unfortunately the housing depression of the mid 2000's caused the business to be non profitable and was closed. Since 2005 I have been semi retired and used my construction experience to work at a lumber and hardware store.

My teaching style is mostly relaxed, like a causal conversation. I have found people to be much more responsive to learning in this kind of atmosphere. I like to find out what my clients understanding level is, work with them towards strengthening that understanding, and use a verity of learning approaches to help them become self-sufficient in the area. "In the second grade my mom sent me to tutor. She was an older women and had once been a prominent local educator. She would sit me at her dining room table and have me do my homework while she watched soap operas in the next room. My experience was stagnant. I hated going to her house and I hated school work. In elementary and middle school, I was a C and D kind of student." "In the eighth grade we moved to a new city and I got a new tutor. It was at an after school program. There was one paid professional and two high school studen

Even though I hold a business degree I have always had a love for working with children. As a college student I worked for two different families as a nanny, where I assisted a total of five children with their school work and projects among other things. After obtaining my BS in Finance from the University of Central Florida I went on to get married and work in a bank. It was shortly after that when I realized that my real passion was with children. When I became pregnant I left my banking position to be a stay at home mom. Since then I have had four children and currently subsitute teach for Sarasota County School Board. I love working with children and seeing them get excited to learn new information. I feel that all children are very capable of learning, just some need that extra one on one attention that is not possible to receive in a classroom setting. I love that look on a

I always seek to educate by exploiting a child's natural curiosity. I first try to build trust and discover what motivates each individual student. I rarely need to use authority as a teaching tool, but much prefer to use an agreed reward system and set achievable short term goals. I like to use a scientific method allowing the student to propose the direction of study and act as a guide to learning through experimentation with several approaches to the task. I always want to be prepared to arrest frustration with a prepared alternative method of accessing the same material. I like lessons that combine subjects into integrated projects that challenge the student but are composed of small successes that eventually show the student how much they can achieve. I do not emphasize time-based skills but I hold myself to continuous improvement and measurement. I have many years experience in pro

I love helping students succeed. I believe all students are capable of academic success. However, I have come to learn that learning styles differ greatly and to be an effective tutor it is imperative to analyze the student and find the most effective tutoring style that suits his or her learning style. My goal is to improve results through patience, hard-work, and confidence building. I believe a good educator can make a world of difference in any child's education. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives. As a graduate of Indiana University, I was driven to academic success as a Dean's List student in attaining a degree in Business Management. During my time at Indiana I tutored students in English, Social Studies, Math, and History. The students ranged from elementary to college level and my retention for these students from year to year was nearly 100%. Now that I

Excellent with children, I can adjust my teaching style with the personality of the child. No child learns the same, so it is important to create a learning plan that builds trust and respect between the child and tutor. I have found my greatest attribute is the ability to make learning fun and “cool.” I am passionate about teaching. If the children you teach can sense your passion for the subject, they will absorb that energy and want to excel. I also consider myself very patient - frustration has a very negative effect when trying to create a positive learning environment. Finally, I believe in creating a benchmark style constructional curriculum. I strive to instill the same love for learning my teachers gave me. Learning is for life. My education is a private-based curriculum comprised of small student-teacher ratios. Since 4th grade I was taught intensive Spanish. A prep student,

My teaching style revolves around the student's learning style though I prefer to be "hands on". I am a firm believer that grades reflect effort. Because most students have difficulty in math or just do not enjoy it, my personality becomes an asset. Learning should be an enjoyable experience and it is most enjoyable when a student understands the concepts. Building confidence in a student leads to success and I believe I have a gift for achieving this. After graduating college with a degree in Finance I pursued careers in that field which were very rewarding. My wife is a school adminsitrator and I thought a career in teaching might be a nice change as the school schedule appeared generous. I tried it and what happened next can best be expressed as; "a calling". I have taught mathematics at the middle thru high school levels encompassing Pre-Algebra thru Calculus. I have students attendi

I am a firm believer that every child has the ability to learn, but not every child learns the same way. As a child, I was home-schooled so alot of my learning experience was on hand. I believe that in order to effectively reach a child you do have to come down to their level, and in doing so it has to be an on hand experience. I believe that everyone has the ability to be great if they have positive influences in their lives encouraging them to reach greatness. I have made it my goal in life to positively touch every young person's life for the better whose path I cross. As a recent college graduate, my passion for numbers was the driving force behind my attaining both an AS in accounting and a BS in finance.Through my educational experience, I was able to grasp a better understanding on many different subjects and how to use them to my advantage in life. During the last few years I hav
