GRE Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Saint Petersburg, FL

After attending (and teaching in) a graduate program in American/British Literature and Language at L.S.U., I realized that my true calling was teaching. I began teaching English, Journalism, S.A.T. Prep., Latin, and other subjects in Springfield, MA in 2003 in an alternative, urban high school. I taught (and tutored after school) until I moved to Florida in 2009, when my spouse began graduate studies at U.S.F. Since then, I have continued to tutor a wide range of students in subjects ranging from high school Latin, 5th grade Math, college English, S.A.T. and G.E.D. Preparation, and graduate level writing, and I have extensive training and experience with students who struggle with dyslexia, ADD/ADHD and ESL issues, as well as with children diagnosed with Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) and Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD).

I use the material that the student is familiar with to enhance the students understanding of the principles and processes that are being emphasized. I bring supplemental material for the subject area and use it as needed. Primarily, the student works problems or exercises that are required in front of me. The student verbalizes the steps and thinking processes about the subject so that I can correct fundamentals and errors in logic. I have tutored math, business and science courses for high school students and adults for the last 20 years. I have tutored for standardized tests (ASVAB, FCAT, PSAT, SAT, ACT, etc) for the last 15 years - saving parents many thousands of dollars in tuition fees. I have also assisted students with homework help, time management and study skills.

I can assure you that any request for tutoring will be met with the utmost decorum and professionalism.

Having been a secondary school educator for so many years, I have observed the changes in trends in teaching as well as in learning. I have adapted my personal views to change with the trends so that I could incorporate novel techniques and personal creativity to enable all students to achieve at least to the height of their abilities. I have learned in corporate computer technogy to maximize efforts to reinforce students' efforts to use available resources to help them learn better and faster at all levels. I prefer inductive teaching rather than imposing lectures. An interactive style enables students to feel they are a part of the process and it personalizes the activities so that a feeling of success is ever present to solidify the foundations upon which to build a substantial knowledge base.

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 enjoy the interaction with students. Finding the key to motivate each one, while challenging, is rewarding. Striving to learn what the students enjoy and determine how they can become active in the learning process. I am a patient individual, prompting students to think for themselves. I feel students that struggle sometimes is due to negative re-enforcement from adults and society, so working on helping the student develop strong self-confidence is a goal I work toward. I taught Mathematics and Operations Research at the Naval Academy form 1997-2000 and from 2003-2010. Courses taught include Calculus I and II, Probability and Statistics, Optimization and Game Theory. Additionally I served as the course coordinator for several courses and mentored several Honor Students. I have also tutored high school and college students in pre-calculus, probability and AP Calculus the last 6 years.

I employ the multiple intelligence philosophy when working with students. I believe that all students can learn; we must be able to identify their innate learning style and utilize that with innovative ways to teach them. The way information is presented can make it easier to grasp. I always look for the small successes, and praise the student, so that they gain added confidence to accomplish the more challenging ones. I have been educating children who are experiencing difficulties in their learning through private and small group instruction for over 12 years. In addition to my BA and MBA, I have earned a certification from Structure of Intellect, Vida OR, so that I can assess the learning skills of students then train the brain to receive and process information in new ways. I work with all levels of students(K - 12)primarily in Mathematics and English.
