More About This Tutor...

Each and every student is capable of success, no exceptions.No two students are alike; therefore, they do not learn the same way. Consequently, it is up to the teacher to explore what works best with each child in order to lead them on their path of academic success. I am passionate about teaching and I believe in learning through doing. Providing students with an opportunity to actively participate in their education by creating visual arts projects, multimedia activities and portfolios enhances their confidence as well as comprehension.
As a life long learner, I have committed myself to the field of Education. Teaching is my passion and it empowers me to share my education, training and experiences with students. In addition to my Bachelor of Arts in History and Graduate level classes in Education, I am a graduate of the Educator Preparation Institute at Indian River State Colleg ... read more

Individual & Group Tutoring. Project-Based Enrichment

I have extensive experience as a k-12 and adult teacher of all subjects (excepting advanced math and science) and as a teacher of technology to all ages, including technophobes:) I offer specific subject tutoring, as well as project-based enrichment programs tailored to a student's interest. My experience is wide-ranging. I have taught home school groups in mixed age groups, created a wilderness eco-learning program in Hawaii, and managed a computer lab for middle/high school students that also trained teachers and developed technology-based curriculum. I love to teach:)

More About This Tutor...

I believe tutoring is best done in small goups, ranging anywhere from four to twelve students per class. Due to the large descrepancy of abilities between students, I believe it is important to modify lesson plans over the course of class. I always emphasize hands-on learning and real life examples as essential when learning new concepts. It can not be stressed enough the importance of flexibility when preparing for any class.
During my time as an undergraduate student at New York University I tutored a wide range of subjects to students with varying abilities. My experience ranges from tutoring reading skills to elementary school children through the America Reads program, to teaching illiterate and non-English speaking adults basic math and literacy skills under Literacy Partners, Inc., and helped prepare high school students for the reading and math sections of the SAT throu ... read more

More About This Tutor...

While I was in college I began working as a teachers assistant at a Montessori School, I soon started privately tutoring students after school at the same location. I am a very hard working, organized, and outgoing person. I tutored students in Math, English, History, Behavioral Sciences and also taught private dance lessons.
I was raised in the Montessori teaching environment, so I am very involved with hands-on teaching methods, and relating subjects to real life experiences. I enjoy watching children grow and progress into self-motivated, independent individuals, who are self-confident in many areas. I believe all children no matter what age have the potential to do amazingly well in school and with their education depending on how much individual attention is placed on them, including constant positive reinforcement.

Due to my extensive background in languages & cultures, I have been able to address individual learning and studying needs quickly, effectively, and definitively. As a multicultural linguist in the field of education, I have been on the forefront of curriculum design and I have presented at five TESOL conferences. Furthermore, my deep-structural understanding of a language's grammar allows me to analyze linguistic needs and perspectives inductively.
Teaching and showing are synonymous and in some languages it is the same word. I am not an instructor. As a teacher & educator my principal aim is to clarify objectives and show the student (client) how s/he can reach her/his goals. I facilitate the process profesionally as well as wholeheartedly. From a personal perspective, I feel good about what I do ONLY when it is validated by the student's satisfaction.

My teaching style varies with the needs of the learner. Having been trained to assess the primary modality of a learner (visual, oral/aural, kinesthetic or tactile), I can plan activities and approaches that will best use the student's strengths to overcome challenges. I think humor is very important in learning and teaching. I work well with students who are able but resistant to learning, and those who have a particular challenge that they will admit. Because I believe that everyone can learn something, and no one can learn everything, I focus on helping students win at learning. I try to teach students how to learn, as well as mastering content, so that they are prepared no matter what the content area might be.
I have been teaching children since I was a child myself, first in community settings, and then in church and later, in elementary and middle schools. I train teachers f ... read more

First and foremost, I am passionate about education. I believe education is key to success for any person, young or old, as well as society as a whole. Before starting into my bachelor degree in Social Science Education at UCF, which I will finish in approx. one year, I worked at a Tutor Time in Phoenix, AZ. I worked with babies to 12 yr olds. I also volunteered at a live-in rehab center, which took in habituates and ex-cons. This year I have volunteered on a weekly basis at a local high school and elementary school, tutoring students in reading, writing, art, social studies, and economics.
My teaching style comes from much of who I am as a person. I am easy going and laid back. I enjoy having fun, but not at the cost of flagrant misbehavior. I believe children can and do make mistakes. It takes the proper coach to guide them in a direction of better choice making. As far as learni ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe with the right guidance and role modeling any child can enjoy learning. Education is very important to me, I think that a good education can not only advance one’s career but also make life a more enjoyable experience. I am a hands-on practical type of teacher. There is always more than one way of learning a concept. I have taught many different learning styles and learned that when a student is engaged and participating in the lesson they get the most out of it. I believe that one on one or small group tutoring offers one of the best chances for a student to be interactive with the material and really grasp it.
I am a highly motivated professional that works well in many diverse situations. I have a Bachelors degree in Psychology from a highly rated private college. I have taught high school and middle school Integrated Science for three years. Before teaching in the ... read more

I sincerely believe that I have the ability to draw on an individual student's strengths. By having goals that are clear and objectives that help the student sense progress and success, I work with students to take them from where they are to the next place for them to be. Many students have told others that I am one of their favorite teachers. I believe this is because my students know I care, and that I enjoy them as individuals.
I have been a well respected teacher in the state of Maine for 18 years. My experience has been in elementary education, teaching middle school language arts and social studies, and also training and mentoring teachers to use technology in their classrooms. I currently have my Florida certification and if the opportunity presents itself, would consider a full time teaching position here in the Sunshine state. I would enjoy tutoring in all subjects, a ... read more

I took every math course offered by a 4 year college, student taught for one 6 week session, and took some educational courses. After home educating my 4 children for 17 years, I returned to school to complete an AA degree in liberal arts and a BA degree in sociology. I now work as a math teacher working with children who range in age from 9-17 and have special needs.
I never give up on a child or an adult. I recently tutored a law enforcement official to help him understand and pass algebra. He didn't think anyone could help him. The schools told me my son would never learn to read or write. He is my only child out of four who reads lengthy books for pleasure. Everyone has a different style of learning. My teaching methods I alter to suit those needs. I spent three years trying to help my dyslexic son learn to read one sentence. I have patience and I love helping people. I a ... read more

I have been a substitute teacher and also am certified to teach Pre-K through 6th Grade in Brevard County. I have a college degree in Business. I spent several years working in the corporate business environment. After that, I became a Home Daycare Provider for young children, which allowed me to spend more time with my 2 children. I love watching the children learn and grow every day.
Patient, clear. I have worked several years with young children and believe I have a great deal of patience. I would describe my teaching style as comfortable and non intimidating. I love to see children learn and become confident in themselves.

Personally, I enjoy everything about education. I believe that if you can educate a person, then doors are opened for them. I am the type of tutor that gives basic instructions, then I allow the student to try a few things on their own. If they struggle, then I will step in and help them. I prefer to go over the same material as much as needed until the student is comfortable with the subject matter. Then, I like to move on to a new subject.
In relation to the tutoring position, I have a year of experience in tutoring grammar school students in math and reading. As a graduate student at Mississppi State University, I was a teacher assistant for 2 years in Introduction to World Geography. These are the only two jobs I have had that are related to job that I am applying for.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have had the experience of being taught by wonderful, kind, caring, and patient teachers. I have also experienced the teachers who are harsh, impatient, and ridiculing. Through these experiences, I realized that I learned much more through the teachers who were patient and caring. The teacher makes all the difference. Teachers are extremely important in molding and shaping the learning lives of their students. I strive to make learning fun and exciting, because a child/student who is having fun will want to learn more and not just the bare minimum to get by. These skills will last a lifetime. I know that each child/student learns differently, therefore, in my approach to teaching, I try to discern their learning style and best suit my teaching to fit that style. Children/students need exposure to a wide variety of concepts and in a wide variety of mediums. I am committed to prov ... read more
