Hearing Impaired Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Saint Johns, FL

Hello! My name is Kristin. I am 28 years old and very passionate about teaching and working with students. I am an experienced tutor and have worked with students of all ages and disciplines. In addition, I have also worked as a teacher's aid in Duval County working with elementary students one on one to help them master areas where they had difficulties in. The students I worked with all saw great gains in areas that they had previously struggled in. I prefer to use a more individualized teaching style and it is important that each and everyone of my student's program is specifically created and tailored to meet his or her educational needs. For school-age children, my current availability (as of 12/11/2013) is as follows: Tuesday- 7:30PM-9:00PM Thursday- 6:15PM-9:00PM Friday- 7:00PM-9:00PM Saturday- 1:00PM-6:00PM For adult or home school students, I am also available

I am passionate about teaching and as a recent retiree, I miss the opportunity to work with students. I have taught AP language arts, standard English to all levels of high school, drama, speech, adult ed (FCCJ), and dual enrollment English Compostion, and Introduction to Literature. I am distressed at the lack of student expertise in composition and I believe in a firm foundation of basic grammar. I know how important college essays are and I have taught test prep skills to students. I have thirty-one years working with young adults from all levels and from all aptitudes. I have also worked with inclusion students and understand the dictates of IEP compliance. I am creative, witty, and have a great rapport with students. I understand the nuances of various learning styles and my first priority is to discover the style my learner is. I administer diagnostic skills which I use to

For the last nine years, except for one break to finish my college degree, I worked at the Boys & Girls Club of Erie County. My primary job was director of education, where most of my time was spent tutoring, teaching and helping with homework. Over that timespan I worked with a wide range of students from first grade on up to graduating seniors and college volunteers. I can assist students in all of the academic disciplines. My specific degree is English, with a concentration on Creative Writing. My personal favorites are science and philosophy. Each student engages homework in a different way. For example, some with a lackadaisical approach, some with a sense of being overwhelmed, some that are missing fundamentals and some unable to self-check. The one thing all students have in common: the desire to learn is in their minds. It may be pushed aside, but all students feel the power of k

My teaching style is predicated on the belief that children truly want to learn. I like to introduce the goal or goals for today. Ask a few questions regarding ysterdays assignment and see if the class will bridg the two by itself. I believe that a class os students wiling to learn need only slight direction each day. I always have a full lesson plan in tow, but i find the class rarely needs me to rely on it. The students' hunger for knowledge always seems to be motivation enough to keep them moving forward through the blackboard jungle. I have always been a tutor looking back. My friends were always asking for help with their homework. I enjoyed helping them. When their parents learned that I was a godo tutor, I found myself helping my friends' little brothers and sisters with their schoolwork. It made me feel goood inside--- stil does. I guess teaching is in my blood. I enjoyed subst

I graduated from the University of North Fl,Cum Laude. I am certified to teach K-5. I am qualified beyond that level because I supplemented my income in college by researching, outlining and writing papers for other students. I also worked part-time as a tutor at the college level. I have a 20 year old son who is mentally challenged. I have become educated through research and his medical care about the needs of Special Education students. I have spent countless volunteer hours over the years working with these students in public and private schools. I also spent 3-4 years teaching adults computer programs. As a result, I am proficient at an intermediate/advanced level in Microsoft Word, Excel, WordPerfect, Lotus and Quickbooks Pro. I love teaching people of all ages. I believe any person is capable of learning if their education is made specific to their needs. Some people are auditory

Each of my students has a differing level of strength in listening, speaking, reading and writing. It is my responsibility to go beyond teaching the curriculum. I am willing to teach each individual, regardless of their circumstances and perspectives. By becoming aware of my students’ needs and interests I begin to enable each student to work at their own higher level of thought, problem solving and production. I provide a variety of ways for the students to successfully accomplish the tasks at hand. I motivate them and allow them to express what they have learned, thereby letting me know what they know. I have an AA degree in Elementary Education and specialize in ESE students and reading. I have created my own lesson plans as well as taught in front of elementary and middle school students in micro-teach lessons and while substituting for teachers. I have tutored elementary, middle and

Working with children is truly my passion in life. My teaching style shows that I will have unlimited patience with a student that wants to learn, and shows that by giving it all they can. I notice that most students are this way, and they reap the benefits of their knowledge acquisition. I procured my Bachelor's of Science degree in Early Childhood Education with a double major in English in 2005 from one of the best teaching schools in the country. I am certified to teach Birth-third grade in the state of Florida and Birth-second grade in NY. I have been tutoring for No Child Left Behind for 2 years now in addition to private tutoring in English.

As a former corporate manager and full-time mother, I received a BA in Theatre Arts and a MSW in Clinical Social Work in hopes of working with children and young adults in low socio-economic environments. I relinquished my job as a clinical social worker, and began tutoring elemenatary-aged students in 2004. I became a full-time teacher in 2005, serving 1st grade, 4th grade, and exceptional studuents (ESE). I have excellent writing skills, creative as well as technical. As a full-time parent, I have hosted several exchange students from Japan, Switzerland, France, and Germany. In the past several years, I have tutored all subjects on the elementary level, as well as worked as a professional scorer for NCS Pearson, scoring essays for 7th grade and 11th grade assessments. I enjoy teaching children the fundamental aspects of any subject, and delight in witnessing the brightening of that c

I have found that the best way to teach is to be flexible, understand your student(s), and find out what will work best for them. Some students need more 'hands on' math and science projects, some students express themselves best through art and/or oratory, and then of course there are the readers and writers. I have learned through my professional trainings and experiences that there are ways to reach and, more importantly, expand each person's capacity to learn by allowing the best expression of their talents and abilities. I am the son of a teacher and have therefore had the value of a good education as a part of my world view. Both of my parents are also avid readers and critical thinkers and instilled the virtues of scholastic practice. Hence, I embarked on a collegiate career that included 12 years studying philosophy, history, religion, Irish Studies, literature, and finally educa

I would say that my teaching style varies depending onthe person I am teaching. There are several ways that people respond to in order for them to understand. I thik that everyone has a unique teaching style but still needs to be flexible in order to help the student understand. I have been at Fccj for a little over two years. I have studied and mastered a variety of subjects. I am starting JU next summer to earn my BSN. I currently have my AA degree in nursing.I've spent a lot of time in the student life and leadership department that works one on one with students to help them with college success.

While working with diverse deaf/hh and hearing students I have come to realize that every student is different. In realizing that, I know that no two students can be taught the same way. Two skills that I have developed and feel are crucial when working with students are patience and creativity. Since graduating, I have taught at the Katzenbach School for the Deaf as well as the Florida School for the Deaf. I am currently teaching Physical Science and Language Arts to 8th graders at FSDB. In addition, I work after school in the recreation department where I facilitate activities for students of all age levels. I have tutored students in Math, Reading, Language Arts, and Science.
