Florida Writes Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Pinellas Park, FL

Tutoring is not my part-time job, it is a full time endeavor. I tutor in many subjects including Elementary, Middle and High School curriculums. I tutor all ages. By working with my students, their parents and teachers, we formulate a plan and goals for our sessions. Sometimes I am a tutor for a test, or a coach for a project or a study skills adviser. I have experience working with students with ADHD and those with specific learning issues and IEP's.

Taught state test writing preparation for many years in Massachusetts public alternative schools. Tutor extensively to prepare students for state and college exams. After attending (and teaching in) a graduate program in American/British Literature and Language at L.S.U., I realized that my true calling was teaching. I began teaching English, Journalism, S.A.T. Prep., Latin, and other subjects in Springfield, MA in 2003 in an alternative, urban high school. I taught (and tutored after school) until I moved to Florida in 2009, when my spouse began graduate studies at U.S.F. Since then, I have continued to tutor a wide range of students in subjects ranging from high school Latin, 5th grade Math, college English, S.A.T. and G.E.D. Preparation, and graduate level writing, and I have extensive training and experience with students who struggle with dyslexia, ADD/ADHD and ESL issues, as we

I have some experience with teaching writing skills at the middle school level and as part of the GED. I am an honors graduate of U.S.F. with forty years of teaching experience. In addition to my B.A. and M.A. degrees, I completed all cousework for the ED.D. I have taught FCAT preperation in middle school in math and reading. I have also taught GED Prep in the evenings. I taught junior high math one year. I have also written two books. One is a history jokebook. The other is a memoir of humorous classroom incidents. I believe that these experiences qualify me to tutor social studies, reading, and math. My style is student centered. I always try to provide a positive atmosphere for learning. My jokes were a technique to help accomplish that goal. As a GED teacher I always began with a pretest and documented student progress to correct any deficiencies. I believe in positive reinforcement

Possessing strong academic qualifications and leadership give me the advantage in helping others. I offer great ideas and have established expectations that administer consistency and fairness as a leader overseeing the needs of others. Communication is not only speaking but active listening. As an active listener, I offer feedback and answer questions that assist in the learning process. My proactive role in lesson planning is geared toward guided learning. Engaging creatively and intellectually with the students in multiple languages at the secondary and adult levels allows me the unique opportunity to create, maintain, manage, and consistently improve educational relationships with diverse populations.

I have tutored students in many subjects, including language arts, math, science, and reading. I have worked with students under NCLB and with FCAT (Florida's Comprehensive Assessment Test program). Some of my past students had learning disabilities, such as Dyslexia, ADD, ADHD, or diagnosed as "Slow Learner." Several of these students were being medicated and were repeating at least one grade. I was able to help them with their educational needs. I have an extensive academic background, possessing AA, BA, and MA degrees. I have a reputation for high personal integrity and positive results. All of my students have made significant improvements as I worked with them. In addition to tutoring, I have proctored grade school students in various subjects and adult learners in the GED as well as employment exams.

I have strong classroom management skills and a passion for helping kids gain a better understanding for anything under the sun! I have high expectations of what my students can do, and help support them in achieving those expectations. My philosophy is that "can't" is the worst 4 letter word in the dictionary, as a result, I work to motivate my students to become life long learners and to enjoy learning new things.

As a young person and recent graduate, I can understand the difficulties that students may face in education. I myself have had to overcome these obstacles, and I could not have succeeded without patient teachers who were interested and involved in my success. A good tutor is able to attend to the unique needs of each student through empathy. A good tutor realizes that simple regurgitation of information is useless. A personal approach that is tailored to the individual needs of a student is essential. I make a good tutor because I realize this, and I am able to take the point of view of the people with whom I work. In addition, I am a patient individual, and I enjoy children immensely. My friendly, warm demeanor makes me unintimidating, and the perfect person to work with children who need a learning environment that is more accesible and personal than a class room. I also view children

I love teaching with all aged children. I have experience tutoring kids as young as 7 and adults as old as 35. I bring the subject matter down or up to their level. I feel that many teachers and professors don't remember how to dummy the material down some times because it has been so long since they were taught the subject. I try to meet my students on a personal level so I can teach them at their needs because each student learns differently. There are a multitude of strategies to teach every subject so I believe that there is a way, no matter how hard it seems at times, to teach a subject to any person. I love teaching and seeing people learn. I am very patient and try to make sure my students know exactly what is going on every step of the way. As a sophomore in college, I am extremely qualified for this position. I started tutoring in my Senior year of high school with two college s

IAs a graduate student working to improve my teaching philosophy I realized that every child has a voice and is able to achieve more with time, guidance and modeling. Maria Montessori created her curriculum for the educator to first model the lesson, then guide the student through the lesson and then watch the student complete the lesson independently. Further, I have taught at every level including adults for 18 years and still strive to use the best practices as I encourage my students to do their best. Besides teaching for Pinellas County, I have worked for private tutoring companies and businesses instructing in all subject areas and social skills. I look forward to working for you. I am originally from Switzerland and found myself hating school as a child. As an educator I work to respect my students’ individualities. I truly believe that every child can learn and enjoy findin

It has always been my dream tohelp children of all nationalities and disabilities. I can bring to the table lots of experiences but in order for a child to fully get the understanding of any subject, I feel the best way is by "hands on" experience. A child can relate more to objects in front of them and by using simple concepts to solve a problem. My goal is to provide a variety of ways to solve varies issues and concepts that your child may be falling short in. Every child can learn but not every child has the same technique. Learning should be fun not a struggle and I am a strong believer in "No Child Left Behind". As a graduate of Cum Laude from Edward Waters College, located in Jacksonville, Fl, it has been my deepest desire to teach. With a bachelors in Elementary Education, and a minor in Special Education I have gain to understand the concept of patience. I have been tutoring for
