More About This Tutor...

I try to bring a combination of educational and professional experience to every session to allow people to understand the world around us.
My name is Perry Miles. I have quite a bit of experience tutoring and have attended some of the best schools in the country. I went to the Newhouse School (at Syracuse University) and studied broadcast journalism to get my bachelors Degree before earning my Masters in Health Informatics from USF Tampa this past December. Since I have moved from the Northeast to Florida, I have been able to help students prepare for the school year and improve grades in all areas. I try to combine my educational background with my professional experience to interest the students and help them apply knowledge. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to send an email to perrym86@gmail.com or call me at (718) 309-4242.

Since 2008, I have been a teacher and just relocated from teaching German at a high school in Pennsylvania to beautiful Sarasota. I do have my Pennsylvania Professional Teaching Certificate and am getting my Florida one. I love to teach and enjoying inspiring others to learn more about the world around them. I have lived in Germany and am fluent in German. I also am a huge history buff and have traveled to over 20 countries.
My teaching style is student centered. I will adapt the information according to the type of learner you are. I understand that no two students learn the same way. I create scaffolding lessons and activities focused on differentiated learning styles from hands-on learner to visual learner. My goal is to promote student learning, achievement, and success.

Experienced Educator who wants your child to love learning.

I have a very engaging manner with students. I feel that learning is a joy, rather than a chore and I try to pass that attitude on to my students. I use frequent checks for understanding and reteaching when necessary. I also believe that a student's own insights and questions can guide learning to its highest levels.
I have been a full-time classroom teacher at all grade levels for the last 12 years. I also have several years as a substitute teacher. I specialize in differentiating instruction for all learners. In addition, I can teach reading and writing skills using authentic sources and classroom subject matter so that students don't fall behind on content-learning at the expense of practice with unrelated materials.

Geography is one of my top subjects!

I am graduating high school this year and I am the oldest of three children. My sister is in first grade and my brother is in PreK. After school we come home and work on homework and sight words. I have babysat family friends and neighbors for three years now. I completed two years of Early Childhood Education classes with a built-in VPK. In this program, we designed and taught our own lesson plans for the children in VPK. I have experience working with children ages 3-5 and teaching science, social studies and math skills. I am also certified in CPR.
I am patient and treat kids with the same respect I am given. since I am young, I believe teaching kids will be easier because I can understand any troubles they may be having and the material is fresh in my head.

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.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style would be based on the direct method of teaching. I like to show my students the way to the information or how to solve a problem and then have the student find their way to solving a problem. Working with these special students is very satisfying. Being able to watch them be successful and feel that they can is the greatest experience in the world. I believe that ALL children can learn. This is why the strategy of differentiated instruction is so crucial to a special needs child. I attempt to work based on the difficulty the student is having. I love to see my students succeed and feel like they are special. This makes all my efforts worthwhile. I would like to be able to extend my love and commitment of education.
My experience in education has taken many paths. I began my teaching as an elementary school teacher. I thought third gradein a Catholic elementary s ... read more

I have an extensive background in various areas, such as Science, Technology, and Swimming Instruction. I have always enjoyed teaching and helping those who are struggling in a particular subject. During the past 6 years, I have helped students in their reading skills, vocabulary, elementary math, science and computer technology during my employment at Girls Incorporated in Sarasota.
I have been to several trainings on teaching methods and how to become the best teacher. Through my own experience, I know that all students are capable of learning, but each has their own unique way of doing so. I like to incoporate visual and hands-on activities and when possible, teach in an informal setting. I like to provide an atmosphere of fun and excitement while teaching a subject. I like to provide as much positive feedback as possible and add humor to my lessons. I find that students respond ... read more

Even though I have been very active in the performing arts, teaching is my primary passion. I received a Bachelors and Masters Degree in Music from the College-Conservatory of Music of the University of Cincinnati. However, I completed a Ph.D. in Education at the University of Florida in 1990. I was a full-time special needs teacher at Oak Park School in Sarasota, Florida from 1998 until 2006. I was responsible for teaching elementary, middle school, and high school grade levels. It was a very rewarding job and gave me experience in many different areas in education. Since retiring from Oak Park I have spent a considerable amount of time tutoring in several different areas, including English, history, and math.
I firmly believe that all children are capable of learning and are entitled to an atmosphere that is most conducive to the learning process and their individual needs. ... read more

I love to tutor and work with students of all ages. Every student has their own learning style that must be found to help the student efficiently and substantially. I want to provide the best education possible by learning about the student and finding the best way to display topics to them. Every student already possesses the potential to succeed in any academic field; they just need great teachers, good study partners, great learning environments, and many learning experiences. I try to present material in a fashion that will hold the students interest and I also like to use visual aids. Learning must be made fun for the student for them to absorb the greatest amount of knowledge that they can!
Throughout my education I have been driven to achieve academic excellence by applying myself the best that I can. I have obtained a bachelors degree in science with a major in biology and ... read more

I began tutoring as a para-educator for the Tacoma school district in 1997. While I worked at two different elementary schools, I tutored children in all grades and all subjects, with a focus in reading and writing. I facilitated my own reading circle with the fourth graders, tutored the first graders in how to tell time and count money, and conducted science experiments with the third graders to name a few of my accomplishments. My life's journey has also taken me down the path of teaching English as a Second Language. I tutored Asian children 12-18 years of age with minimal understanding of the English language. I have also tutored ESL privately. While going to school to obtain my ECE degree, I had to complete a practicum. Within this learning arena, I completed three months as a preschool teacher which helped me hone my skills as a facilitator of learning. While attending the ... read more
