Learning comes with a pinch of confidence & creativity. :)

I implement creativity, and ample amount of positive, fun energy into the way I teach. I believe the key to any child's learning is first instilling confidence into them. When a kid learns confidence, they begin to have the fuel needed to learn. As they grow in this confidence, they can begin to experiment in their learning and become creative in the skills they master.
I have tutored for Acers tutoring in Orlando for a full year. I have full experience with teaching reading and writing, as well as somer lower level algebra and mathematic skills. The kids have ranged from ages 8-14. As well, I have been giving guitar lessons to kids between the ages of 10-14. The children have all been able to pick up quickly, and being a song writer, I encourage the kids to seek full creativity in their music and learning. In college, I've spent my time volunteering with the youth group, and hel ... read more

I have had the pleasure of teaching English to high school students for 25 years. This was an occupation that I enjoyed immensely. My duties included teaching reading comprehension on a literal and figurative level. My background enabled me to present historical background on particular novels and authors. I have also taught all levels of writing. Some of these include written analysis of literature, first person narrative essays, creative writing, and writing for college.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been taking classes at Daytona State for 1 semester, but like my credentials said, I have gotten awards through them from my Middle School, and high school. I have been tutoring since 2003. I have had multiple students at one time, so group sessions may be common in my teaching. I am in all advanced classes, and I can tutor in just about ever subjects.
I teach either one on one or in groups with the same subject, depending on how many students I get.

A Little Bit About Me...

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 year and was asked by students to be the keynote speaker at graduation and an NHS induction ceremony. I have provided homebound services and private tutoring services to several students. My diverse background and proven education experience make me an excellent candidate for a tutoring position.
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 Arm ... read more

I am a patient teacher and take pride in taking the time to get to know what "works" for each individual student. I enjoy working with students in a one-on-one setting and in a classroom environment. I like asking questions of my students first to see where they are on the lesson and then after the lesson to check for understanding.
I worked at a residential summer camp for five years. I ran an after-school program (including tutoring) for three years. I tutored a native Vietnamese elementary student in all subjects for three years. I taught at a therapeutic boarding school for 15 months, teaching English and Social Studies.

More About This Tutor...

Each child is different. I always try to notice and acknowledge what benefits each student, as I think this applies to all forms of teaching from academics to athletics. Getting on their level is what ultimately benefits the child from the get go and gains their interest. If I'm interested, then the child is interested. I do my best to make sure the child is setting their goals and doing their best to achieve them in the way and style for which they are best suited.
I have two bachelors degrees, however, I believe it is my experience teaching children that has helped me develop a good sense on how to approaching teaching scenarios. I have years of experience teaching children in academics, music, and dramatic arts, as well as coaching basketball and teaching golf at the professional level.

I enjoy working with children and young adults, and am aware that everyone grasps learning at a different pace and in a different manner. An approach that works with one student might not work as well for another. I am patient, enthusiastic, and committed to your child's success. Great teachers have been a memorable part of my life and I strive to become one of those notable mentors with my students. My goal is to not only make learning constructive and fun, but to also make a real difference in your child's life and future.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a current graduate student I've learned to not only be a student but also a teacher, in assisting my peers and family in subjects beyond their understanding. I've earned my bachelors in science in Chemistry, and I am currently working on my Masters Degree In Aeronautical Science with A focus in Air traffic Management and operations.
I feel like the best way to teach a subject is to break it down to the basics and build your way up, I feel you cant have a full understanding of something if you cant teach it yourself. Im a positive motivator and I believe that with enough patience and repetition any student will be able to understand anything.

I have a tremendous love for children and place a high standard on learning. I possess a calm attitude and a superb understanding of children's needs. Family, friends, and those I have personally worked for tell me how comfortable their children feel with me.

I have been teaching for seven years-mostly math and some language arts. The math teaching included geometry, algebra 1, algebra 2, basic high school math and middle school math. One year my students had the highest improvement in standardized math test scores in the district, for the lower level students. My student test scores have always been high so I retained the scores. I tutored psychology for two years in college for a Buffalo State College program called SEEK, and received many compliments from the students. In Rutherford County, TN, I worked with medically homebound students and found I was very good working with the disabled students. I am also fluent in the Spanish language.
I like to have the students actively participating in the lessons. They enjoy working out the lesson examples and problems on the media that is used so all of the class can see the successes a ... read more
