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.

As a contented student at Full Sail University, I am pursuing a Master's in Fine Arts in Creative Writing. I volunteer for Graduate Honors research in Latino/a Caribbean Studies at the University of South Florida, and serve as a freelance consultant for an aspiring media entertainment company. In addition, my Bachelor’s Degree in Literary Studies, Associates Degree in Education, and professionally polished communication skills are invaluable as a tutor. I have learned to be disciplined and skilled in the acquisition of critical thinking, written communication, analysis, logic and reasoning. To be literate and articulate in various languages is not only handy, but eases the transition of language barriers which allows me to continually acquire polished skills in all forms of expression. Possessing strong academic qualifications and leadership give me the advantage in helping others. I off

I believe that implementing the right tools, along with clearly stating what the student needs to learn, along with discussion, will ensure student success.Using multisensory resources, creatively using the newly formed knowledge, along with pre-testing will foster memory and recall. The experience I have gained while studying Education and Psychology, along with administrating exams for Wonderlic Scholoastic Testing and tutoring has enabled me to learn through understanding, hard work and dedication. I have learned through extensive courses in Psychology on how we learn, education courses that break learning down, and working with children and adolescence for over ten years with tutoring and patience, that with the proper tools and guidance, anything can be achieved.

My teaching style varies according to the type of student. I have tutored at-risk students with attention and behavioral issues. With these types of students, they are indifferent about math, and I have to get them excited and interested by a rewards system. I get these students involved by putting the chalk in the student’s hand and have them explain the material to me, rather than lecturing to them, which results in their daydreaming. If they succeed, they get rewarded. With students who are willing to learn but are having difficulty understanding the material, I am persistent and supportive. I break complex materials down into pieces and work step by step so that students can reach their full potential. I recently graduated with a bachelor of science degree in mechanical engineering from Georgia Tech. At Tech, I volunteered three hours per week to tutor SAT's to immigrant stude

After having lived in Germany, teaching ESL in a middle school, I returned to the United States to teach in the Irving Independent School District in Irving, Texas. During that time I taught German, French and Spanish to middle and high school students. Subsequently, I was offered a teaching position for the Department of Dependent Schools, which is managed by the Department of Defense Education Activity. I taught Study Skills and German for three years in the Ramstein area in Germany. I then transferred to the United Kingdom where I taught these modern languages on an air base near Cambridge. Presently I am teaching ESL to businessmen in the Tampa Bay area as a free lance contractor. Having acquired skills in three foreign languages by three different learning methods, I have a good understanding of language acquisition as well as language usage.

I believe that all children can learn and are eager to learn if they are properly engaged in the material. If children are shown things within the subject matter that they can latch onto and find interesting, if learning is made stress-free and enjoyable for them, then they will learn and be excited about learning. I strive to make learning an enjoyable process, and to teach children things they may not have heard about before, and will always remember. An example of this is when I taught a unit on the Salem witch trials to my 4th and 5th grade students at Lake Eola Charter School...a subject they had not heard of before and found fascinating....and then to cap the lesson, I directed the children in a modified production of Arthur Miller's The Crucible, which we performed for their parents.

My teaching style is tailored to each individual student. During our first two sessions, I will be able to determine which teaching methods get the best response. Some students learn kinetically, with lots of motion necessary to avoid boredom, while others must have all their senses stimulated. For each lesson, in order to gauge the response of my student, I include audio/visual for listening skills and oral comprehension, picture identification for level of language skills, singing, repetition for pronunciation and language acquisition, conversation, reading and comprehension, and writing/cloze exercises for production of learning skills. Warning: I give homework! My specialties are reading, writing, and speaking. For over 20 years, I have done performances and workshops on literature, history, and acting in a variety of school and library settings. Most recently, I have expanded my

I truly enjoy working with all students. As you can see with my previous experience I don't give up on students. I believe that all students can learn however, they may learn differently. Through the use of brain inventories, I have helped students discovery the best way for them to learn. In my research I discovered that people learn through visual, auditory or kinesthetic. As a result I usually include activities in my lessons that cover the different learning styles. I began teaching long before I received my teaching degree. I have a B.S. in Social and Behavioral Science from USF; A.A Degree from St. Pete College. As a parent of a child with a disability I had to help my child which turned into a love for helping other children. I am certified in Reading k-12, EH K-12, VE K-12. I gained all these certification in order to expand my availability to others. I have mostly tutored studen

I encourage students to be well versed in the basics; reading, writing and arithmetic. I am also a believer in making sure students take as many college ready courses as possible. The full math and science venue are of utmost importance. At the community college, I acted in an advisory capacity, one-on-one, to the high school students that I dealt with. I am a technical and business oriented individual, having an MS in Civil Engineering and an MBA in Finance. I worked my way through school, having started at a community college.
