Tutor with Real Life Experience

I obtained a B.S. in Biology, with a concentration in aquatic science, from Wittenberg University in 2006. During my undergraduate studies, I tutored elementary students in math and science twice a week for two years. After college, I moved into the marine science profession. In August of 2008, I started teaching High School Biology I, Earth and Space Science, and Physical Science to students in Polk County. In addition, after school hours were spent with two students taking AP Biology classes. Both students achieved a 4 or higher on their placement exams. My tutored students reported an increase in their ability to record class notes, study, and take tests. My previous tutoring experiences have included subjects such as; elementary science, elementary math, Algebra (I & II), Geometry, Pre- Calculus, Anatomy, Physiology, Biology (both College and HS level), HS Chemistry, basic w ... read more

Online Music Lessons and Elementary Test Prep/Homework Help

I am currently a general music teacher at Samsula Academy, an elementary school in New Smyrna Beach, FL. I teach general music classes to students in grades K-5, as well as chorus and band. I received my Bachelor's degree from Marywood University in Scranton, PA and began my Master's studies at University of Central Florida. I currently aspire to study Irish traditional music in Ireland in the near future, and would continue to offer online tutoring services during those studies. At Samsula Academy, I offer private music lessons. I have mostly taught piano, but I also have taught trumpet, trombone, drums, flute, clarinet, saxophone, and violin. As a part of my undergraduate studies, I took methods courses in all band and orchestra instruments, so I am trained to teach most anything. I also have experience assisting in the elementary classrooms in reading, writing, and math, and preparing ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I actually don't have much experience as a tutor beyond helping classmates study, however throughout my experience in high school I've experimented with and adopted many avant-garde and unorthodox studying techniques and thought processes that have served gratuitously to my benefit, and I'm positive will serve yours as well.
I'm currently a senior attending Winter Park High School. I have a slew of education and extracurricular related accolades, and have been commended highly for my skills in writing (both creative and professional). My transcript has a long history of Advanced Placement courses and my standardized exam scores are impressive to say the least least (30 ACT, 1800 SAT, multiple AP Exam credits).

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 have been working with elementary through high school students for the last few years and am able to relate to many age groups. I try to link the subject matter to things that the students are interested in so that they not only understand what they're learning but also gain an interest to learn more and help them stay focused. I give students clues to help them figure out problems by breaking them into smaller pieces rather than give them the answers and am patient as they learn at their own pace. I believe that making learning fun and interesting is the key to good study habits and future academic success.
With a lifelong interest in math and science, I received a B.S. in Physics and a B.S. in Astrophysics/Astronomy. Numerous lab reports and multimedia presentations have developed my technical writing skills, but also have experience with critical and analytical writing. I hav ... read more

My teaching style addresses each student as an individual with unique abilities and strengths. I believe that it is important to create a positive learning environment for the child and instill a "can-do" attitude. I approach the teaching of a difficult concept by evaluating the child's current level of knowledge and using task analysis to scaffold increasingly progressive steps to achieve comprehension. My greatest reward in teaching is the recognition that lights up a child's eyes when he or she realizes that he or she can learn.
I have a wide range of teaching experience with K-12 students who have difficulty learning in a mainstream classroom. My academic background consists of a M.A.T. in Elementary Education, a B.A. in Audiology, and seven credit hours in graduate coursework. I have a valid Florida teaching license. My work history includes being a EDEP group leader and ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated in May 2008 with a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering, so I have strong background in the areas of Math and Science. Mathematics has always been one of my strongest subjects. I received a 780 on the math portion of the SAT when I completed it back in high school, and I was Vice President of the Math Honor Society. Also, during my schooling, I've tutored Math and Science subjects for Middle and High School level students. I've also been an independent child caretaker for several years in the past. I have a great passion for teaching and learning and work very well with children as well as young adults. I enjoy being a part of education so much that I would like to apply for high school and college level teaching positions as soon as I obtain my certification as well as my Master's degree.

I like to believe that anyone can learn and understand anything. All it takes is a good teacher and effort. I like to work through a similar problem to the one the student is having a hard time with. Once he or she understands the similar problem, I then ask them to do their problem. If they still have trouble I refer back to the similar problem. Once they have correctly done their problem, we do another problem just like it. We repeat this process until they understand how to do the problems and better yet, understand the concepts and why you do certain things in a particular order to get the correct solution.

A Little Bit About Me...

Teaching is very rewarding to me because I love the feeling I get from knowing that I have made a real and positive impact in someone's education and life. Understandably, learning new ideas or skills can be incredibly daunting to children, teenagers, and young adults alike, but I think that this is where I have a real knack for teaching. Not only am I patient, friendly, and thoughtful, I have the ability to reduce a complicated topic or problem into more easily defined parts. By attacking a problem in this manner, I allow the student to follow my lead, while learning a method by which to solve future problems. This ensures that the student is thinking creatively, critically, and analytically, for himself or herself. My goal is to provide him or her with self-confidence and to make learning fun for the student, so that he or she can reach his or her potential.
For many years, ... read more

I believe teaching to be a matter of enablement. The student's immediate goal is to absorb and understand the material, and the teacher's is to make this understanding happen. The primacy of the student's process requires the teacher to mold his or her relationship to each student in subtly but unmistakably individual ways, so the same teaching personality appears to be different to different students. In my case, the approach I strive to extend to all students emphasizes patience in the face of difficulties and confidence that the student's short- and long-term goals, however difficult, are within reasonable reach.

A Little Bit About Me...

My personal philosophy about education blends guided practice, academic rigor, and personal discipline with student autonomy, creativity, and exploration. I not only teach students how to complete a task but also how to become self-assessing so they can have success long after the tutoring session is over. I relate well to students of all ages and have the patience to explain, illustrate, or demonstrate a concept in multiple ways until I find the one the student understands. It is my goal to reach each student where she is and guide her to the desired level using the teaching styles that meet her individual needs.

I have a BS degree in Interdisciplinary Natural Science and a Minor in Public Health. I worked for USF Housing and Residential Education. I also was a Peer Leader for Chemistry where I was basically a Teaching Assistant and led two sections by myself.
I like the child to feel comfortable with me to where they are at ease and readily ask questions. I prefer to ask the student leading questions to aide them in coming to the conclusion on their own as opposed to simply telling them information. After a few questions have been answered then I am able to help them with the details of problem and a help them build a method for solving similar problems in the future.
