Experienced Tutor

I enjoy teaching and working with children. While I believe that all children can learn, they do so in their own ways and at their own pace. It is the tutor’s responsibility to ensure that the student(s) understand the material. It is important to show students how one idea builds on the last. I will help your child learn the material in his/her own way. I consider myself to be patient, non-judgmental, and knowledgeable of the subject matter. I truly believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. I am very proud of the kind letters of thanks that I have received from parents of some of my students this year.
As an engineer and I have taught planners and engineers how to use software to do calculations. I have taught GRE preparation for Kaplan (analytical and verbal reasoning) both to small classes of 3 to 7 ... read more

Extremely patient, cool tutor wanting to help you

Extremely patient, but organized. Teach students how to be organized, how to properly prepare for tests and to be able to recall information when needed.
Seven years of experience as a case manager with Healthy Families, where we helped teach families for to be better parents and to become self-sufficient. Besides being extremely organized, I am very patient and try to reach everyone on whatever level they are currently on. I don't just shove a bunch of information at you and hope you get it. Instead, I build on what strengths you already have, and show you how to use your unique, individual learning style when I am tutoring you. My strengths have always been writing, spelling, and all things related to Language Arts/English Comp. Also, I have always been pretty successful at test taking and study techniques.

I have earned a Bachelor's Degree in Social Work and have worked extensively with and for children including a Case Manager at Clay County Behavioral. I have always wanted to be a teacher so earned my Teaching Certification through St. John's River Community College in ESE and Pre-K through 3rd Grade. I have been a teacher's assistant at Wilkinson Elementary in the Trainable/Profoundly Handicapped class and am now in my 2nd year at Shadowlawn Elementary working with the Hearing Impaired assisting in all subjects. I have a minor in Psychology. I feel teaching reading is a strength utilizing many different approaches.
I believe every student has their own style of learing. I am very much a visual learner and utilize this style. Many students, though, are tactile learners and/or find their attention is kept using computers. I love discovering what type of learner each child is. ... read more

I am currently attending ITT-Technical Institute in Jacksonville, Florida for an A.S. in Computer Aided Drafting and Design. I currently have 72 completed credit hours. My college grade point average is currently 3.53. After finishing up my A.S. (six more credit hours), I plan to further my education at Ellis University online for a B.S. in Interdisciplinary Math and Physics. My entire senior year of high school, I tutored Algebra I and Algebra II students. While mathematics is probably my best subject, I know I would be very capable of tutoring English, the arts, and the sciences.
My greatest teaching philosophy (though I cannot claim it to be original), is "Can't never could!" This is such an important concept, for students as well as their teachers and tutors. Without belief in the student on the part of the teacher or tutor, I feel that a student is more likely to fail. I ... read more

I earned my bachelor degree in literature because I love to read and want to share that love with my students. Five of my seven years of teaching have been in the middle school realm, with two years being in the capacity of a Reading Coach, which allowed me the flexibility of teaching children and adults in a classroom setting. I have taught using the Sunshine State Standards with focus on reading strategies which help students with comprehension and vocabulary. I have also taught writing skills/strategies to eighth grade students in preparation for FCAT testing. I have tutored students in a variety of subjects such as elementary mathematics, reading skills for social studies, science, and fiction, English, and organizational skills.
I love teaching and working with all children. I also believe children learn in different ways, and I'm available to help your child find their wa ... read more

During college I pursued a fine art degree focusing on Photography. Having taken classes in ASL when first entering college, I decided to return to pursuing a career involving American Sign Language.

During my time in high school, I started going to math tutoring to work on my homework. There was one fantastic teacher, and many students. When I would finish my homework, I would help others. Later, in college, I passed math and once again found myself helping others. When a work-study position opened up, the learning assistance program hired me as an in-class tutor/teacher’s assistant. The program switched directors, and I began working one-on-one with students who required an individual instructor. During the summer, I worked for the ‘Bridge’ program wherein we assisted students who had difficulty transitioning between high school and college.
I like to encourage people to pursue their potential. I hate busy-work, and try to give assignments that work on multiple levels; therefore, even if the student may not immediately see success in a trouble area, the student can be encoura ... read more

I was a tutor of Elementary School age children for one year, before joining the military. I am a mother of two boys, one being in the 2nd grade and am experienced in elementary level schoolwork and reading. I am extremely organized and efficient and love to help kids learn!
I love children and watching their eyes light up when understanding a certain subject brings joy to my heart. Patience is one of my strong points and I try to let the child reach thier goals in learning as independently as possible by encouraging them to work toward and answer to a question methodically and using a "figure it out" type style. On the other hand, I stay by my students side offering a shoulder to lean on, and support when struggling.

The best teachers that I've had and that have made the deepest impressions on me have been kind, generous with their time and understanding, as well as observant. In my experience this has been the type of educator that I've tried to be. I feel that teaching is an exchange. Just as I have information to pass on I know that students do as well. Teaching is the highest of symbiotic relationships. Children have such a unique and simplified way of looking at things I feel as if I have the opportunity to learn something as well. Who knows if you will be that teacher that makes a profound difference in a student's life. We must approach each student as a chance to make a difference.
From a young age I've always been interested in helping those less fortunate than myself. I've been a mentor, a tutor, a Peace Corps volunteer, and I've also worked as a Hospice volunteer. Having these broad ... read more

I believe in teaching using the three learning methods- aural, visual and kinesthetic because I understand that each student's needs are different. I like to use examples, lecture, project work, teamwork and written assignments.
I began teaching and tutoring as a high school student. Those subjects included music and computers. I continued after receiving my bachelor's degree. I taught mostly in areas related to my field such as- digital video, film, music, computer op, writing, research methods and even digital video game creation. I've taught continuously, ages 2 through college, for the past 2.5 years.

I believe that my instructional abilities combined with my solid analytical leadership, interpersonal skills, and work ethic would greatly benefit your educational program. I believe that education is the key to success for young adult students. As a teacher, I will aim to provide a stimulating learning environment that encourages students to trust their own opinions. I hope to motivate students in ascertaining their inner strengths and abilities by discovering what truly inspires them, while fostering confidence in order for students to realize their full potential.
