Trumpet Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Putnam Hall, FL

The easiest way I can explain my teaching style is to begin with the fact that I have worked for Disney for the past 6 years. I always have a smile on my face, and I believe that encouragement is the basis for all true learning. Students need someone to encourage them more than feed them facts. By guiding students through new concepts and learning with them instead of for them, each student is building his or her own learning tools that are more likely to last than the tools their tutor may provide for one homework assignment and never use again. I love putting all the pieces of the puzzle together - those "a-ha!" moments when students have breakthroughs in learning and understand have to be some of the most rewarding feelings in the world. Through high school and college, I have always excelled in academics. I received a 3 or better on multiple AP classes through high school: AP Spanish

If there is anything I believe about teaching, in any form, it's that you need to be passionate about what you are teaching, yourself, before you can translate that to others seeking knowledge. I am incredibly passionate about English, and endeavor to transmit that to any pupil; furthermore, I am very understanding, patient, and sympathetic when it comes to a teaching style, but know how to motivate students to want to learn themselves. I do not teach merely to help students improve their grades, but look instead to further their understanding and develop their interests in subjects they feel uncomfortable with. I am currently an English major at the University of Florida, looking to finish my undergraduate education in two semesters and graduate with honors and a Bachelor of Arts. I have had past experience working and volunteering with children on an individual level, teaching them var

I am more capable as a teacher and mentor to students in middle school and high school. While I have a lot of experience with elementary students, I find my best impact on middle and high school students. I like to use the Socratic method in which I try to make the student answer there own question, by posing other logical questions in which they can deduce the resolution. As a graduate of the University of Florida, I studied Physics and played football as well. Earning a Bachelors degree in Physics, I studied all levels of Calculus, Differential equations, linear algebra, thermal physics, electromagnetism, chemistry 1 and 2, mechanics, quantum mechanics, and many other classes. Therefore, I am very skilled in the areas of math and science.

I come to you with thirteen years of teaching experience. I am the mother of three. I was raised and attended college right here in Jacksonville, Fl. I graduated from Edward Waters College in 1993.It is my vision and mission to give a student confidence and compassion in reading, writing, and history.All children can benefit! I enjoy working with children. There are several assessment tools that I use in order to see where I would need to begin with any child. One of my favorite forms of assessment is Great Leaps.I have used this program and have seen growth in all subjects with students. Some students who were reading below grade level are now functioning with confidence on grade level.We all are like candles someone sparked our fire and now look how bright our lights our shinning.I would love to be that spark for your child.

I enjoyed conducting cost accounting classes and one on one tutoring to three semester MBA students during my two years in the MBA graduate program at Emory University. I also passed the CPA exam in the State of Georgia. My undergraduate experience was well rounded and included sports, philanthropic and fraternal activites. I spent the last 12 years owning and operating twenty (20) Wendy's in the Jacksonville, FL area. The Wendy's experience was highly condusive to enhancing my interpersonal skills. I sold my business this year and have extra time on my hands and would very much like to help students succeed with their studies. I am patient and relaxed. I have to be - I have three children under age 11 at home. My experience with teaching has told me that each student can reach their goals if given the appropriate learning environment. Sometimes a single tutor can offer this chance. I wo

As a Post-Graduate student, I know the meaning of hard work that leads to success. In 2007, I have received my Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology with a minor in Criminology and currently completing my second degree in Biology. I applied my skills across a broad spectrum of science, math, behavioral studies, writing, research, and language skills. I have helped many peers in areas that were difficult for them. In 2006, I have participated in a short-termed program that provided help for grade school students struggling in classes. From that point forth, I have provided tutoring services to those that requested my help as needed. I have experienced that everyone learns differently; some people are visual, audible, physical, or a combination. I know because I struggled in classes before. I strongly believe that "no child should be left behind" due to lack of resources or lack of underst

I have earned my Bachelors of Science degree in mathematics, which has allowed me to ascertain advanced knowledge in all aspects of mathematics. By having this degree, I have gained teaching experience in the Education field at an elementary school. During my college years I tutored college students in mathematics as well. I enjoy teaching and working with anyone willing to learn and even those that aren't as willing, i try to help them become more comfortable and confident in acquiring knowledge. I have many teaching techniques, depending on the student. My techniques range from visual, auditory and tactile. I am very patient and observant while teaching and I try my best to accommodate whatever is needed to allow learning progress.

I believe teaching is as much about the experience of learning as it is about the subject matter that is being taught. Not every student learns in the same way, or at the same pace. I am sensitive to the students needs and existing background in school to know what is acceptable and what is not acceptable. I evaluate the students strengths and weaknesses to find the best way for the student to learn the subject matter so that the knowledge takes root. I have a high level of patience during the difficult starting phase when students are first grasping difficult material, and coupled with my creativity to find new ways of relating the subjects to students, help me to teach students in a way that is comfortable and encouraging for them. I am a graduate of Western Carolina University, where I received my Bachelor of Science in Education for the field of instrumental music. I have experience

My teaching style is very hands-on. I believe in practical knowledge and showing students several different ways to understand something. I also believe in providing students the opportunity to figure out solutions to problems on their own with encouragement, instead of just having them copy what I say. I also believe that all learning exercises can be challenging and fun, and not dull and boring. I plan to take what the child is interested in and apply it to their learning. Since high school, my passion for telling stories led me to my degree in Journalism. I worked as a professional news reporter for two medium market stations and was on my way to work for a larger market. My career took a turn for the better and I found my calling was education. I have always coached and been a choreographer, so working with children and helping them succeed was also a passion. I hope to utili

As a college senior, I have accumulated countless hours towards tutoring and mentoring those in need. Whether it's Pre-K, Elementary, Junior High, High School and College students, I spend a great part of my life not just accomplishing goals, but taking the time to extend a hand and bringing those once behind me to the forefront. I have grown to learn that the right amount of disciplne and nurturing go further than a full dose of either. The subjects I mostly excel in are mathematics, psychology, English, reading, and the Arts. I feel that the well-rounded education that I have received makes me versatile in the educational system as a multi-threat to the decline in graduation rates. I find great joy in watching a child progress in their education. All children are capable of learning at their own pace, and through repetition. Your child will find success and ease in their academics thro
