I have been tutoring since my Sophomore year of high school. I have experience tutoring elementary, middle, high school, and college students in Science, Math, English and History. I am really passionate about helping others succeed academically, because I know first hand how much work is required if you want to master tough concepts! I try to find unique and fun ways to explain difficult concepts. I do this with many different techniques, including visual aids. I'm very patient and will find new ways to explain a concept until it is mastered.

As an educator in the public sector, I recognize the growing gap in education. I also understand the pressure put on teacher's and the lack of time to get student's to where they need to be. It is imperative that students have the opportunity to be provided with academic assistance that is relative to what is needed to progress through school and life. With over twelve years of experience, a Masters in Business, and a Specializing in Educational leadership, I have the qualities that is needed for students achieve academic success.

I am an Elementary Education Major at the University of Florida and have helped many students succeed in all subject areas, with a strong focus on Elementary Education. Some subjects that I particularly tutor in include: math, science, english, social studies, and language arts. I also supply a student with supplemental material I feel will help them learn better and at their own, individual pace. For instance, I believe that some students may learn better through visual exercises, and them others may learn through auditory (hearing) exercises. Either way, I try to figure out what a students learning style is and work on that with a student.

I believe that anyone can learn material if it is presented in the correct way. Every child has their own learning style and it is important to find out what the style is and to utilize the child's strong points. I am a flexible teacher that can adapt to presenting information in various ways that will best help the child learn. I am very patient and understanding to the fact that not every person will understand the material right away. I will continue to work and present the material in various ways to ensure that the student understands thoroughly. I received my bachelor degree from Ohio Northern University, a BS in Biology with a concentration in Physical Therapy. After graduation, I moved to Florida to attend the University of North Florida to obtain my Doctorate in Physical Therapy. I am currently in my second semester and will have my Doctoral degree completed by April 2012. At th

I believe that all students can learn. It's just a matter of finding the instructional style that matches their learning style. I am a firm believer in the theory of multiple intelligences, developed by Dr. Howard Gardner and adapted to the education field by Thomas Armstrong. It's not how smart you are, but how are you smart! To me there is nothing better than seeing the lightbulb go on in students' eyes when they "get it." My job as a teacher is to figure out how to bring each individual student to that point and guide all of them to reach their fullest potential. I have 19 years experience as a high school teacher. In that time, I have taught several different English classes and reading. I have been a department chairperson, a reading coach, and have taught a variety of graduate level education courses to teachers as well. I was honored as Wentzville High School teacher of the

From a young age, I greatly enjoyed school and excelling in all that I put my mind to. To this end, I have earned a BS in Psychology and a minor in biology, both with Honors, and am applying to continue my education in graduate studies. Through my undergraduate work I have gained a greater understanding in biology, math, and writing papers and research manuscripts. During the college education I tutored other groups of college students in biology and tutored children in science. I love being able to give other students the passion that I have for learning and understanding something new. During my undergraduate work in psychology and training to be a tutor, I learned the different types of learning styles and how to test for them. I use this technique with every student I work with, so that I can teach to their form of learning. I believe that children learn best through practical

For the past four years, I have dedicated my life to training dolphins and mentoring and educating guests, interns, and junior trainers alike on conservation, morphological, psychological, behavioral, and research topics related to the marine animal field. I have taught lectures at high schools, colleges, and adult seminars on marine mammal biology, and in general psychology. My high-performance at the University of New Hampshire provided me with opportunities to tutor other students struggling in areas in the fields of Biology, English and Russian languages. My academic experience and my career have provided me with countless educational experiences with all age groups. My background in dolphin training and my experience in tutoring and educating has taught me that positive reinforcement is the most effective way to teach. My teaching methods have inspired people to take initiative to

My teaching experience consists of leading the Upper Elementary classes of the Key West Montessori Charter School and currently Discovery Montessori School of Jacksonville Beach. Under my guidance, my 4th-5th grade Charter School students led Monroe Co. in standardized testing scores, both fulfilling the Montessori curriculum expectations and exceeding the state curriculum standards specifically in writing, math, and reading. I am presently teaching a class of 3rd-4th graders who I will continue teaching next year as 4th-5th graders. My teaching style is consistent with that of the Montessori philosophy, i.e. hands-on learning activities providing a concrete basis of knowledge that extends to the abstract. Moreover, I firmly believe that if a love of learning is instilled in the student, there is no challenge too great to overcome. I have always been able to win over a hesitant stude
