Students learn best from doing things. I try not to lecture, but to involve the student in the learning process. I can lecture, but I haven't found it to be as effective as other methods. I very much prefer tutoring to classroom teaching, mostly because I am helping people learn what they want to learn, and solve problems they are having troubles with. I have worked part time as an adjunct instructor since the '70s, including 22 years with the Orlando Program of Florida Southern College, and 11 years with Valencia Community College. The later provided me with dozens of short courses in education. I also completed and retired from a civilian career with the US Army and Navy, starting as an intern, and reaching Senior Executive levels.

In addition to my undergraduate degree in mechanical engineering I am currently working towards my masters in the same field. I am specializing in Thermal Fluids and for the most part it deals with the mathematical interpretation of fluids in motion. In my undergraduate studies I had the opportunity to tutor freshman and sophomore students in the field of math and physics. I also had the opportunity to help teach 4th and 5th graders basic math at Pineview Elementary in Tallahassee, FL. My math skills range from easy to hard and I've had the experience of explaining the sometimes confusing world of math to students. One of the most difficult things about math is comprehending the concept. Many learn through repetition, or visual demonstration. I would think that my tutoring skills involve both. Repetition allows one to get an idea of what they are doing and it also helps develop que

As a teacher, I believe in keeping the students engaged by varying activities and engaging different styles of learning (ie using visuals, interactive lecturing, and hands-on activities). When I tutor, I also try to use similar tactics to keep the students engaged in the activity at hand. I believe in being very patient and easy-going, but firm when needed. Students must want to learn, but also I believe a good teacher can help facilitate that process. For three years, I have taught reading and remedial English part time at Valencia Community College. I also have four years' experience tutoring English, reading, and algebra at Valencia and Rollins College. Working in two writing centers, I have helped create grammar exercises for remedial students. I also have done one-on-one tutoring and online writing consultations.

My philosophy is to encourage and listen to students, and while giving them clear direction and guidance, to also strive to teach them to learn how to write on their own. The goal of the Rollins Writing Center was to create better writers, not better papers, and my teaching style follows that thinking. I listen to students and ask them questions, giving them concrete examples when needed. I provide them with strategies for better analysis and writing, but also encourage them to think originally and to develop their own ideas, since I believe it is important for students to learn to think and write independently, rather than just blindly follow directions. As a double-major in English and Religious Studies at Rollins College, I know how to read, write, and analyze effectively. I graduated with Honors in the English major due to the senior thesis I wrote, in which I conducted independe

During my time at UCF, I was a teaching assistant for Comparative Vertebrate Anatomy and a tutor for Ecology. I have also published research in invasion plant biology and have spent time performing underwater research in Roatan, Honduras. I have a strong understanding of biology and the related fields and good written or oral communication skills. I love helping students learn and discover new interests. I understand that people learn in different ways and I am capable of adjusting to each child's style. I am personally a visual and tactile learner so that is where I typically start and then adjust to each child.

I taught math and English to 9th and 10th grade students for 2 years. My capacity for imparting knowledge to the students was so profound that I was considered as a very effective teacher.

I completed my BS in biology in 2007, and would like to go on to grad school. In the meantime, I am interested in tutoring because of the positive experience I had while tutoring in my college's writing center. I have a year's worth of tutoring experience and strong writing skills due to the many English, philosophy, and science papers I have written over the years. My understanding of the principles of biology is also strong, as is my knowledge of chemistry. I graduated with a GPA of 3.77 and received high grades in nearly all of my science courses. My tutoring experience has solidified my love for teaching. In my training, I was taught to be more of a guide than a lecturer, leading students through difficult subjects by suggestion and example rather than by rote statement of facts. I often approach teaching as puzzle solving. I will ask myself how I can best explain a topic to a

I have over 20 years experience teaching mathematics at the community college and university levels. I have also worked as a tutor at the Mathematics Laboratory and the Academic Success Center for Okaloosa-Walton Community College. I have worked as a private tutor on numerous occasions in the past. Most recently, I worked as a tutor for a private school in the Dominican Republic where I tutored eleventh graders in pre-Calculus. From my own experiences as a student I have come to the opinion that the most valuable educational accomplishment one can achieve is to “learn how to learn”. This seems to be a state of mind, an epiphany if you will, which hopefully will be realized at some point in the course of an individual’s intellectual development. Such a state of mind is not usually due to the efforts of a particular instructor, nor is it the result of having taken a certain class. Rather

Having been an educator for over 30 years, I love and enjoy the opportunity to work with students individually. It allows the teacher to customize the setting to be encouraging, positive and workable. The learner is able to adapt well and know that their questions and concerns will be dealt with in a safe and supportive learning envirionment. By being patient, understanding, supportive and encouraging; this will lead to a sense of achievement. Every child has that opportunity to learn, no matter what their deficits are! Nothing is more rewarding to see how a student reacts to achieving something that was unachieveable before! As an experienced professional in education, I value it's importance. Learning how to read is an essential skill that should be taught in a personal manner. By being certified in Special Education, I've kept myself abreast with current teaching styles and approa
