Piano is one of my top subjects!

I am a graduate of the University of Florida with a BM in Piano Performance. I'm going to be in Gainesville for at least 2 more years as I am working on a Master of Education degree at UF. I am passionate about teaching; I currently have two students and I would love to find more. My rates are 35$ per hour or 25$ per half hour. You should also expect to spend about 20$ on music books through amazon or a local music store, unless you already have appropriate-level literature to study from. If you or your child is interested in learning piano, or improving on existing skills, send me a response! I will reply with my phone number and you can ask me any questions you want, and we can discuss scheduling.

Piano is one of my top subjects! I already have students from the Villages who drive to me in Ocala for lessons

I have been tutoring people of various ages since 7th grade. In high school I took 15 AP exams and passed the majority of them. I am currently a college student studying chemical engineering and I have good study habits. I enjoy tutoring people and work well with either one on one, group, or online tutoring.
My style reflects what helps the student best from visual to through verbal explanations.

I feel very strongly about a differential approach to my teaching methods. I believe every child is different and learns differently then the next child. I feel confident in developing a lesson plan that can be diverse enough to meet each and every child’s gifts and disadvantages. My life is dedicated to teaching and I hope that I will be able to teach for a very long time. My hopes are to eventually acquire a PhD in Education.
I have attended CFCC and FCCJ. I am currently attending Liberty University for my Bachelor in Education. I have been teaching for about 7 years and through that time I have learned an extensive amount not only through in-services and training classes, but through my colleagues. I feel very confident in my ability to reach children that feel that they just can't get it. I have two children of my own, which I homeschooled for a year. My daughter, who is 13 yea ... read more

I love being able to give other students the passion that I have for learning and understanding something new. During my undergraduate work in psychology and training to be a tutor, I learned the different types of learning styles and how to test for them. I use this technique with every student I work with, so that I can teach to their form of learning. I believe that children learn best through practical application and hands on activities that help them better understand what we discuss and work on. All children are capable of learning and excelling, once they understand how they learn best. I strive to instill in every child a feeling of pride and self-esteem in their studies.
From a young age, I greatly enjoyed school and excelling in all that I put my mind to. To this end, I have earned a BS in Psychology and a minor in biology, both with Honors, and am applying to cont ... read more

When I begin tutoring a new student, my first objective is for us to get to know each other. The student will not be able to receive very much from me until he/she is comfortable with me. Once they feel that I care, they open up and the learning really begins! When I really get a feel for the personality and whatever particular challenges are unique for this person in this class, I am able to determine the best way to communicate the subject and improve the skills. I like to think outside the box to find the best way for that student to have that "got it" moment!
Literally all my life I have been asked by students, parents and teachers to help students who were having trouble. I get tremendous fulfillment from watching someone who has been frustrated finally "get it." In addition to teaching music lessons, tutoring all subjects, and homeschooling my own two children, I have worked ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

The easiest way I can explain my teaching style is to begin with the fact that I have worked for Disney for the past 6 years. I always have a smile on my face, and I believe that encouragement is the basis for all true learning. Students need someone to encourage them more than feed them facts. By guiding students through new concepts and learning with them instead of for them, each student is building his or her own learning tools that are more likely to last than the tools their tutor may provide for one homework assignment and never use again. I love putting all the pieces of the puzzle together - those "a-ha!" moments when students have breakthroughs in learning and understand have to be some of the most rewarding feelings in the world.
Through high school and college, I have always excelled in academics. I received a 3 or better on multiple AP classes through high school: AP S ... read more

I worked for Advanced Learning Centers to tutor both high school and middle school students in math. When no new math topics are of any trouble, I also aided them in working with both science and english.During my term in Colorado, I also tutored two girls for a year and half in math and english. I grew quite attached to them and the family and I hope to have lasting relationships with the kids and families I work with.
As an undergraduate in Chemical engineering, I have always been known to strive to be the best that I can be. I have my BS in Chemical Engineering which displays my knowledge of both science and math. I was also a graduate student in pharmaceutical sciences in Colorado and helped to write scientific grant proposals. This experience shows my working knowledge of both science and english, as well. I now work as a Clinical Research Coordinator showcasing my multi-taski ... read more

I love seeing people understand something once I explain it to them in a way that they can understand it. I also love working with kids and teenagers because I believe that if we have a positive influence on young people they will grow up to be the leaders that our nation needs. My teaching style is geared at making people think. Students don't learn when they are spoon fed their education but when they are lead in the correct direction.
I am currently enrolled in the graduate engineering program at the University of Florida, in which I plan to graduate in the spring of 2012. I enjoy working with people and I have a strong background in numerical analysis. I have taken the GRE, ACT, and the SAT. Scores were high above the national average for math and at about the average for the written portion. I do have experience in writing research papers and laboratory reports, all in the fie ... read more

It truly does take a village to raise a child as the saying goes. I have been able to make many positive differences in many childrens lives by tutoring, volulnteering and working with them. I am able to teach in a variety of ways, which as most people know, everyone learns differently. Some people are visual learners, meaning they learn better through the written word. While others are auditory (listening) or kinesthetic (learn by doing). I believe that I can provide the best education possible by teaching in a variety of ways while making it fun.
I have a MA in Psychology from Concordia University. My BS in Human Development & Family Studies with a minor in Psychology is from Penn State University. I am currently taking Medical Coding and Billing classes on-line. I have over 15 years experience working with children in all settings (mental health, teaching, tutoring, volunte ... read more

As a Cum Laude graduate from the University of Florida, I continue to hold a high level of discipline in every aspect of life. Whether it be at work, at home, or at school, I feel it is imperative to do your best no matter what the situation. Upon graduation at the age of twenty, I began teaching undergraduate courses for UF. This was an honor, but it was not challenging enough. It was not until I helped students with severe mental and physical disabilities that I felt fulfilled in my profession. Being able to teach student who are eager to learn, but have obstacles during the learning path, is a blessing! I have been blessed to teach students of all grade levels (PK-College) and have tutored students from ages 5 to 25.
Hands on teaching and kinesthetic learning are key to success in my mind. I love to involve the student's entire body in the learning process. From their se ... read more

I really like working with children from low income families. I think each child has a different interest and way of learning. I try to discover these learning styles before I begin the tutoring process. I try to allow them to be comfortable and having fun during our sessions. Most of the time I do a lot of question/conversation responses to allow them to find the answer for themselves. I like a problem based learning style, even for the youngest of children. I not only want to teach them how to properly concur their learning material but how to find the information they need if they do not know the answer. Additionally, I want them to have fun and enjoy quality time with a supportive mentor and gain an enthusiasm for school.
I have a B.S in Animal Biology. I have had to take extensive science and math courses. Additionally, I have extensive experience working with childre ... read more

I initially try to find what he/she is struggling with,and what strengths and weaknesses are present. I allow the person to ask questions in a fluid, spontaneous, "let's see as we tackle this together" manner. When something is not understood, I try to give analogies, examples that the person can relate to. I also may explain the subject matter in a more simplified, methodical fashion. I believe learning can be made appealing, if you find out how the person operates. Learning is the key to just about everything, so I take seriously the importance of assisting someone in the tutoring field.
In my college curriculum and internships, I experienced and observed a great deal about people and various styles of processing information. That is, every person has a rather unique way of learning. I would think the most important point to tap into, when tutoring someone, would be to disc ... read more

I enjoy working and interacting with students of all ages and abilities. My objective is to teach students to be successful in all types of educational pursuits, and to develop positive relationships with others. Each of us has our own learning style; I am a visual, kinesthetic learner. I strongly believe that the best results come with a combination of attitude and stimulation. We start with identifying an individual level of success and build that strength through games, activities, and interaction which makes learning fun. Improved self-esteem is a wonderful by-product of educational success. My experience and patience will encourage positive results.
My teaching certificate is valid through June, 2014,for grades K-9. I have thirteen verified years of experience in the public school system. All of this was at the elementary level, most of which was in the intermediate grades ... read more
