Reading Comprehension is one of my top subjects! I am able to help rephrase a sentence or paragraph into a word or theme picture. Some kids are more visual and a word picture can Unlock the blockage! I am to show them how to take the confusing. And Simplify it into basic words and simple word pictures! As many kids are literal and abstract writing can easily confuse them!

Patient and kind .creating an atmosphere of fun That opens minds to learning ! Empowering kids to be enthusiastic about learning ! Finding individual weaknesses and humorously yet consistently overcoming them! Motivating with joy and love not fear and threats!
I have successfully taught home schooling! I have taken a fourth grader with all F's and Helped her to achieve A's and B's I can make math fun and easy to understand! I love taking the " I can't " and changing it to " yes, I can"! I have a phi beta kappa degree in psychology! I have 7 adopted children!

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is student centered. I will adapt the information according to the type of learner you are. I understand that no two students learn the same way. I create scaffolding lessons and activities focused on differentiated learning styles from hands-on learner to visual learner. My goal is to promote student learning, achievement, and success.
Since 2008, I have been a teacher and just relocated from teaching German at a high school in Pennsylvania to beautiful Sarasota. I do have my Pennsylvania Professional Teaching Certificate and am getting my Florida one. I love to teach and enjoying inspiring others to learn more about the world around them. I have lived in Germany and am fluent in German. I also am a huge history buff and have traveled to over 20 countries.

Experienced Educator who wants your child to love learning.

I have been a full-time classroom teacher at all grade levels for the last 12 years. I also have several years as a substitute teacher. I specialize in differentiating instruction for all learners. In addition, I can teach reading and writing skills using authentic sources and classroom subject matter so that students don't fall behind on content-learning at the expense of practice with unrelated materials.
I have a very engaging manner with students. I feel that learning is a joy, rather than a chore and I try to pass that attitude on to my students. I use frequent checks for understanding and reteaching when necessary. I also believe that a student's own insights and questions can guide learning to its highest levels.

More About This Tutor...

I am a recent Bachelor of Science in Child Studies graduate of FGCU and hold a current FCCPC. I am considered a non-traditional graduate (which in my case means older), and I bring with me a range of personal and professional experiences that have developed and enhanced my capacity for learning, teaching, and adaptability. My primary interest in learning is focused on the social-emotional and cognitive influences that create the optimal conditions for brain function during the learning process. Providing both the necessary supportive social-emotional environment through positive guidance as well as the cognitive stimulation that physical, sensory, and creative and artistic activities produce are fundamental to implementing a brain-based learning approach, and I am trained to integrate hands-on activities across the curriculum and learning domains that relate to real world experiences. ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My career in education began thirteen years ago. I started by volunteering in my son's classes as well as in the library. While volunteering in the library, I taught children how to do to research, write essays and reports, construct Power Point presentations and, finally, how to present their work in front of their peers. I attended the substitute training course and, as a substitute, I have worked with children of all ages and backgrounds as well as in all subjects. More recently, I received my BA in History and my certifications to teach Elementary Education, Art K-12, Earth/Space Science 6-12, and Social Studies 6-12 (which encompasses US history, World History, Geography, Psychology, Religion, and Sociology).

A Little Bit About Me...

I have attained a Master's Degree in Sociology, with an undergraduat degree in Criminal Justice and Sociology. I am also fluent in Armenian. My strenghth has been in the English language, which has helped me with many research papers and also writing my Master's thesis. I also have attained certification in many computer programs. I have been tutoring friends and family for over five years, and I would like to continue with my teaching certificate.
I love to teach people of all ages because I have so much passion in education and learning. I enjoy using different techniques to help each child learn at their own pace. The best gratification is to see a smile on a child's face after they have learned or accomplished a task which they didn't understand before.

My style of teaching is relatively comparisons and having the student recognize the use of information as it is used daily. Thus, middle school math is my choice and computer science to instruct. I use tape measures, yard sticks, beakers, pie charts money, and all visuals such as: dam’s bridges, and buildings for measurements.

I love children and I love teaching. I am extremely patient and very considerate. I take into consideration that each child has a unique way of learning. A child will learn success in various subjects when the child feels important as an individual. Children know their limits. I encourage each student to work hard and pursue a higher level of learning. With proper encouragement and loving support, students will work and do well in various subjects. I truly believe that all students have a genuine interest in learning and in doing well. I am very positive with each of the students that I tutor.
