My comments on tutoring Entrance Exams : Qualified in this subject by WyzAnt.

In my teaching, I make every effort to engage the attention of my students. While covering the subject at hand, I bring into my lessons references to a spectrum of other subjects when relevant such as historical context, cultural elements, literary allusions, modern and historical implications and facts and trivia relating to the subject which I believe will not only be of interest to the student but will also provide a more rounded appreciation of the benefits of a wide ranging education.
For the greater part of my life I have been involved in various facets of education. I have acted as substitute teacher at the middle and high school levels for a total of 10 years, 8 of which were spent at 12 schools in Vermont and 2 at 10 schools in Hernando County FL. I held the position of Senior ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages) with a highly reputed language school in Vienna ... read more

I hear and I forget. I see and I remember.I do and I get it.

The experience I have gained while studying Education and Psychology, along with administrating exams for Wonderlic Scholoastic Testing and tutoring has enabled me to learn through understanding, hard work and dedication. I have learned through extensive courses in Psychology on how we learn, education courses that break learning down, and working with children and adolescence for over ten years with tutoring and patience, that with the proper tools and guidance, anything can be achieved.
I believe that implementing the right tools, along with clearly stating what the student needs to learn, along with discussion, will ensure student success.Using multisensory resources, creatively using the newly formed knowledge, along with pre-testing will foster memory and recall.

Specializing in language skills, logic, and reasoning.

As a contented student at Full Sail University, I am pursuing a Master's in Fine Arts in Creative Writing. I volunteer for Graduate Honors research in Latino/a Caribbean Studies at the University of South Florida, and serve as a freelance consultant for an aspiring media entertainment company. In addition, my Bachelor’s Degree in Literary Studies, Associates Degree in Education, and professionally polished communication skills are invaluable as a tutor. I have learned to be disciplined and skilled in the acquisition of critical thinking, written communication, analysis, logic and reasoning.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a creative educator and development professional with over 15 years teaching, curriculum development and program implementation experience spanning several countries and a diversified portfolio of projects in the arts, health and social services, education, government, non-profit and for profit sectors. Many people who have taught at one time say they are former educators when listing their past employment as teachers. I am however, a lifelong educator. I have over a decade of teaching/training experience, particularly at the adult school, vocational setting or university level and more than five years of test preparation and materials development experience.
I believe that each child's talents and abilities need to be nurtured through creative and constructive curriculum and delivery, including acknowledging the importance of integrating playtime with instruction. I have work ... read more

Achieving a higher level of success and excellence has always been a first priority. In high school, I graduated a year early with distinction. I earned my BAS in Graphic Design. I took math up to calculus and trigonometry. I have extensive writing skills in essays and research papers. I have tutored students in mathematics, language arts, reading, english, art, social studies, geography and science. I have worked as a tutor for three years with students who were at varying levels of academic abilities.
I have tutored elementary, middle school, high school, and college students. I will get your student not just a passing grade, but I will teach them a really structural studying method and time management skill that will be vital to their upcoming scholar days.

A Little Bit About Me...

I discovered my love of teaching when I started volunteering as a reading tutor and youth group leader. I am most effective when I work with students in a one-on-one or small group setting, which allows me to focus on individual students’ strengths and challenges. I customize my approach with each student’s particular learning style in mind. My goal is that students understand and learn to think critically and independently, not simply memorize. When I see a child’s eyes light up with understanding and smile at accomplishment, I know I have succeeded in making a difference.
While completing my B.A. in Management at Eckerd, I learned how to write effectively and enhanced my understanding of grammar, mathematics, history, social studies and economics. As a volunteer tutor at a public school and at my church, I began to develop my teaching skills. These rewarding experiences mot ... read more

As an undergraduate, I worked as a volunteer tutor in the Robles Park/Seminole Heights area for two years. I tutored kids in math, science, English, and social sciences. I also tought sunday school in my church where I was involved in designing the curriculum and planning lessons. I am also an experienced substitute teacher. I've been recently certified to teach social science's in grades 6-12 by the Florida Department of Education.
My teaching style varies depending on who I am teaching and what I am teaching.

My goals include not only teaching material and skills that will help students, but truly making a profound difference in their lives.

A Little Bit About Me...

My experience in education is at once formal & casual, specific & broad. From working in the school setting with reading intensive students to conducting experiments and demonstrations on the floor of the MOSI science museum, I have gained a world of knowledge on teaching methodology and student assessment. As a researcher investigating social learning theory, I have become equipped with the skills of noticing and reflecting on the behavioral "cues" of learning to further guide my students/guests to a higher ZPD (Zone of Proximal Development) through engaging learning moments. I have worked with children as young as two and frequently facilitate the learning of older adult guests on matters of scientific principles and discovery.
My teaching style is entirely dependent upon my learner. Reflective practice guides my analysis of an individual's abilities, interests and potential whic ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and working with children. I believe that with love and nuturing each child can reach their full potential. My goal is to determine each child's strengths and to build on them. I will do this by getting to know each child on an individual basis - talking with them, conducting assessment testing, and monitoring them as they work. I feel that after doing so, I will better be able to structure my teaching style.
While attending Mississippi State University I tutored 3-12 graders. I tutored them in mathematics, English, and science. It was quite rewarding for me to work with these students because I was able to see immediate results. Not only in their work but also in their behavior. I was able to provide each of my students with personal attention that was necessary in order for them to grow. In addition, it brought me joy knowing that I was helping someone; a child, t ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I'm a journalist by trade. My love of writing began at an early age. A bachelor's degree in Theater immersed me in the works of Wiliam Shakespeare and from there I became fascinated with history and living history at that. I then obtained a Master's degree in Journalism to expand my skill set in both the English and Spanish languages. I have extensive experience working with bilingual students of all ages in the subjects of English-grammar,composition, literature. Spanish-grammar, conversational. History- World, Latin, American.
My teaching style is based on the premise that students want to learn and succeed. At times they are blocked in that endeavor by the level of difficulty, the complexities of a lesson or personal obstacles. It's my job as a tutor to find out what that hindrance is and help the student overcome it. I vary my teaching style based on the needs of the student.

Being a Montessorian, I feel that an indivualized approach to learning is the most effective. Children should be encouraged to participate in decisions about their own education and not be treated as though their ideas and opinions don't matter, as is often the case. I also think it's imperative that the learning materials be engaging and the subjects taught be made as interesting as possible. As a teacher and tutor, I try to make learning fun and exciting to entice the student to follow their natural desire to learn, while also modeling appropriate behaviors and attitudes toward learning.
Coming from a family of teachers, quality in education has always been a big part of my life. I currently teach grades 1-3 at a Montessori school, and have been tutoring both formally and informally since high school. My tutoring experiences include such diverse subjects as German, chemistry ... read more

As a college graduate, I am very passionate and motivated to achieveing a higher level of education. I have earned a BA in sociolgy and plan to go back to school to obtain my master's in medical social work and possibly a PHD, also in medical social work. Sociology has taught me many ways to approach various situations and extensive writing, research, and grammatical skills. All which are due to writing research papers and participating in a variety of different research studies. In high school and for the past year, I have tutored students and enabled them to excel in reading, writing, and Spanish.
