I graduated with my Bachelor’s degree in Biblical Studies from Trinity College of Florida. I went on to pursue a Master’s of Arts degree in Intercultural Studies from Alliance Theological Seminary. Both of these degrees have equipped me for ministry, which is my passion. I also pursued a Certificate in Teaching English as a Second Language, which I received through the University of Cambridge. I have taught in churches for over ten years, often working with underprivileged youth. My experience in ESOL began when I taught conversational English in Chiang Mai, Thailand over the summer. I taught ESL as a volunteer during my Master’s Program at a church in New Jersey, and most recently I have started private tutoring. I believe I am an effective teacher because I always prepare thoroughly for whatever I will teach, and I use a variety of means in teaching, in order to engage students

I discovered my love for teaching and working with children in the Dominican Republic while on an alternative spring break working with at-risk youth living on the streets of the city of Santiago. With this experience I learned that one of the most important thing in the world is education, and I began my life as an educator. With tutoring I try to implement a facilitated teaching method that involves students pushing themselves to learn. As far as my teaching style goes, I think it is the role of the student to want to learn, and if they are struggling with this concept I work to motivate them to understand the necessity and great opportunities that education provides. I graduated from Florida Gulf Coast University with a degree in biology and chemistry minor. I finished with honors, while in the honors program and Phi Eta Sigma honor society and the Golden Key honor society. Throughout

I am applying for the position that you advertised online for Tutors in Math and Science. Given my education and work experience, I would be an ideal match for this position. I began my college career at Penn State as an Education major and spent the first two years of course work studying the philosophy of education, educational psychology, current teaching trends, instructional analysis, etc.. I have always been "teaching" co-workers and employees in almost all of my positions. In my extensive professional experience, I have developed strong communication, instructional, and administrative skills. Teaching and/or training has always been a highlight in my life. After graduation, I accepted a position as an Adult Education Specialist; counseling and interacting with adults (18-65) returning to school for their GED's. I have worked in a variety of settings including open school, i

I would describe my teaching style as very patient, supportive and goal-oriented. I bring various activities to the class, including games and music, and generally let the students do as much work as possible, especially practicing speaking, writing, listening or reading. I learned that Student-Centered teaching is a good method and I try to use it as much as possible. I have a very clear speaking voice and most students find my classes to be fun and inspiring. I am used to being in front of people as a music performer and I find this helps in making the class more interesting and motivates the students to work hard. I have ten years of experience as an ESOL teacher. I began my career in Costa Rica in 2001 and upon returning to Sarasota began working for Sarasota County Technical Institute. I then moved to Barcelona, Spain to obtain the Cambridge CELTA certificate from International

I have a good understanding in math and its applications. I do not have formal tutoring experience as an adult, but have taken a break from my career in business to stay home and take care of my children, currently 5 and 7 years old. I have helped my daughter with most of her math concepts and homework and she is one of the best in her class, and I have helped both with their English and Spanish vocabulary and pronunciation. I would say I spend about 2 hours daily (during school days) teaching them and making sure they understand the concepts taught in school. In high school, I was also a member of Mu Alpha Theta (Math honor society), and volunteered as a math mentor after school for 1 year. My best trait as a tutor is that I will not give up on my student, even if they have given up on themselves. It is my belief that most concepts can be understood if taught properly, and relate

I have my professional certification in Elementary K-6 and Physical Education K-12. I recently taught Kindergarten and I have more than 30 years experience working with children of all ages. Along with teaching I have twice owned my own school and been the Director of many schools and summer camps. My strength has always been teaching Mathematics and I am taking the certification test next week. One of my gifts with working with children has always been the ability to relate well with them. I know what motivates children and have always shown patience and understanding. I have always tried to have children learn while having fun and try to give them multiple experiences because not all children learn in the same way.

My education is a private-based curriculum comprised of small student-teacher ratios. Since 4th grade I was taught intensive Spanish. A prep student, I excelled in English, Algebra and Geometry. My BA in Political Science included History and theoretical modern political thought and processes with a year in Latin. I studied worldwide economical and political research, often including statistics. My MBA in Marketing and Management Strategy concentrated focus in an MBA program stressing disciplines in business including Financial Analysis, Accounting and Statistical Analysis. I have informal experience as an English, Political Science and Marketing tutor to my prep, college and MBA peers. I have taught private guitar for the past 10 years. Excellent with children, I can adjust my teaching style with the personality of the child. No child learns the same, so it is important to create a le

Being aware of my compassion to help children succeed, earned my PA teaching certification after graduating high school. During college I received special recognition for volunteer services affiliated with tutoring at a "homework clinic" located inner city. All my life I have worked/volunteered assisting children in some capacity or another It simply is part of who I am. I believe every child can and will succeed given the proper environment. I am a stong advocate for positive, rewarding, fun and exciting atmosphere. This includes focusing on the child's natural interests.

My teaching style is focussed but relaxed and tends to incorporate real life and current events into the experience in order to provide a point of reference for the child. Mutual respect and effective communication of goals and expectations from both parties is an essential. I am a local professional with sixteen years of experiences in the Human Services field, most of those years in state and county government focusing on the protection of vulnerable populations. My other field of study in college was writing and I have strong grammar and vocabulary skills. I have edited medical research articles for several companies, edited newspaper articles, and I had a year of tutoring SAT prep courses through the Princeton Review.

Taught guitar independently for about three years in a music store in Connecticut. Also taught in Lisbon Middle School for one year. I've also been involved with teaching guitar and other subjects over a broad range of topics and years. While I can be flexible in style and content, I lean toward contemporary interaction with less rigid guidelines. As a child progresses, I feel it necessary to adapt the their specific needs and abilities.
