Tutoring By Sam! Core Studies Tutor with over 13 years Exp!

I gear my teaching style to the individual I am working with. In 14 years I have learned that even though a method may work for one student, it does not necessarily mean it will work for another. In the first few session I test a small variety of applicable teaching methods and adapt them as time goes on.
I have been working with students in both one-on-one and group settings for going on 14 years. I began tutoring groups of children at an inner city after school program in Language Arts and Reading Comprehension. I went into further training at my high school and became a designated math tutor for those in Pre-Algebra, Algebra I and Geometry. After high school I revisted my loved for tutoring at Jefferson County Community College where I tutored Reading Comprehension, Composition, and Study Skills. Throughout the years I have tutored a variety of students in various areas through ... read more

My comments on tutoring Life Science : Have tutored up through the 8th grade level.

I like to use working examples of principles. I also embrace the "why" behind the facts as a method of reinforcing knowledge gained.
Most of my training has been hands on experience. I consider this a bonus as it promotes practical application. I did attend Boston University in search of a biology degree and marine biology minor. Personal circumstances made completion unavailable. I have also received certification in varoius animal care related fields and also hold the status of First Responder for Marine Animal Strandings with the Clearwater Marine Aquarium.

A Little Bit About Me...

My BS in Secondary Education from Florida State University has equipped me with the knowledge and experience in educational psychology and teaching strategies through both course- and fieldwork in Leon County, where I assisted students in their reading, ESOL, and writing for grammar and composition. Because of my degree, I was also afforded the opportunity to student teach middle school Language Arts for one semester, where I learned to plan and apply instruction, and adapt it to the needs of varying students and levels of ability in grammar, reading comprehension, and essay writing. Over the last year, I have tutored college students in English, reading, writing, and the arts (including English as a second language).
I love helping students and believe every child has the ability to learn. I am passionate about encouraging them and inspiring them on the journey; sometimes, it m ... read more

My teaching style is supportive, creative and understanding. I have worked with patients from aged 2 to 102 and grasp much of the emphasis of the needs for each age group. I enjoy teaching because it brings forth a deeper understanding of the process. It also helps students feel they matter in their world and that they belong, rather than feeling insecure and alone.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that while students may forget specifics of what they are learning, they will never forget how teachers make them feel. I also belive that the best teachers are the ones that make themselves less needed the longer they teach specific studdents. I want to empower the students I teach to be able to learn and excell on their own in the future. I hope to make a difference by empowering the students I teach to learn to edcuate themselves bu giving them the skills they need.

Now that I have earned my Master's degree I would ... read more

As a high level accomplished Master Teacher, my main focus is student achievement and success. Currently, I am a 2nd Grade General Education Elementary Instructor. I have taught general education for 5 years and inclusion for 5 as well. My vast background experience equips me with the proper tools needed to assist individuals in reaching their maximum academic potential.
I strongly believe that each child has the ability to learn if given the proper instruction based on his/her individual academic need. Instructors should be versatile in their teaching strategies in order to insure each child is successful based on individual ability. My job as an educator is to "reach and teach" and is strongly driven by my philosophy that it indeed "takes a village to raise a child".

A Little Bit About Me...

I have taught kindergarten through eighth grade special education for the last twenty years. I have had experience working with students who were struggling learners including my own child. Sometimes teaching means showing a different way to do it. I have learned the skills needed for students to learn and remember what they have learned. I have tutored many students and all have been successful in the classes they were being tutored.
Learning needs to have importance to a student. They need to understand why they need to learn the things they are being taught. Then it makes more sense to them. If possible, teach to their strengths. If they like computers, find a website that gives them practice. If they are better writers than listeners, have them dictate and read it back to you. Flashcards work well for some while others have difficulty remembering things. It all depend ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a special needs teacher, I have worked with many students who simply needed someone to show them a different way to learn the material. Learning can be made so much easier when taught in a format that is fun. This makes it enjoyable and more likely to be remembered. In a tutoring one-on-one kind of setting, times tables could be taught with a deck of cards and using the two numbers thrown out as the problem. Reading and writing can be done by taking pictures and creating a story from the pictures you have taken. It costs the price of a throw away camera and the students love it. I bleieve learning must be fun.
I am a very patient, soft spoken person who understands what it is like to struggle. I also had difficulty learning in school and wish someone would have taken the time to notice I wasn't being 'lazy' but really had a hard time comprehending and remembering what I r ... read more

When I teach children I first look to see where they have the most need. I use a variety of assessments and tools to identify their areas of weakness and then plan activities for their learning to strengthen those areas. I believe that finding and filling the gaps that may hinder their learning will help them gain academic success in the future. I believe that children learn in different ways and I aim to provide a variety of approaches. For example, they can learn through games, graphic organizers, hands on examples, or other means. I try to find the best approach to help children succeed.
I have twelve years experience teaching students from 2nd to 5th grade. My first six years were spent teaching 2nd grade at Caroline Brevard and Florida State University Schools. Then, I taught Math to 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade for one year at FSU Schools using the Project CHILD method which invol ... read more

I adopt a simplistic yet effective 2 level approach. At the first level, I make sure that the concepts are crystal clear to my students and and at the second level I train my students to be competitive exam takers. Such an approach provides conceptual clarity as well as practical understanding of the subject.
I'm a researcher and educator. I earned a Bachelors and a Masters degree in Physics Hons. After graduating, I taught Physics, Mathematics and Science to high school, college and graduate students. My teaching experience was so rewarding that I won various awards. It also inspired me to pursue higher studies and I started my degree in Physical Oceanography at Florida State University. For the past 7 years I have been teaching, mentoring and helping students with Physics, Mathematics, Science and English.

My teaching style is positive, resourceful, and uses multi-media whenever necessary. I encourgae my students to seek their own answers and guide them on how to reach their learning goals.

I believe everyone has their interests to learn, has their ways to learn, to help them find their own style, explore their potential, reaching the goal of they dreamed, is my destination.

More About This Tutor...

My personal philosophy is to let children make their own discoveries. I am essentially a person that will guide a student to that discovery and ask questions all along the way to activate their brain in terms of problem solving. In my experience, a child will have a stronger retention of subject matter if they are allowed to discover it and understand it on their own terms. I am also a believer in bringing a child's confidence level up, as many children give up before they even start a project because of low self confidence. Simply by encouraging the child to believe in his/ her capabilities, I will increase the productivity of the session and build a relationship on trust and mutual respect.
