PSAT Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Stuart, FL

I have always endeavored to excel academically and so sought after and received a top-level education at Duke University. Having a love of language and having a desire to be able to teach at all levels, I obtained an MA in English from the UNC-G. I have had 43 years of teaching and tutoring at all levels, elementary through college. I have taught high school English, college English, SAT Prep, and GRE Prep---both the verbal and the math (I scored almost 800 on the math section). I was responsible for setting up a city-wide tutor-training program for children with learning disabilities, wrote the curriculum, interviewed and selected the tutors and staff, and served as the administrator and supervisor. My primary aim in tutoring students is to assess exactly where they are academically, including reading level and math skills. Then I teach to their exact level. I help them to set up realis

We always administer a mock PSAT to determine where you are and then we teach critical reading skills; math problem-solving skills; writing skills and retest at intervals depending on the students individualized tutoring plan. This is the test to take if your child is going to college. It helps them prepare for the SAT in particular, but is also a helpful tool for doing well on the ACT. It also allows students to enter the competition for scholarships from NMSC (grade 11). I believe that everyone can learn; that we are all life long learners and that patience and encouragement are key to a successful academic experience for all who seek to improve their skills. I further believe in focusing on the strengths of my students and individualizing materials and activities to meet the needs of the student. I have a B.A. in Speech and Communications and a Masters Degree in Speech and Languag

I love working with children. I love seeing their eyes glow up when they finally understand something or learn something that was completely foreign to them before. I'm currently an undergraduate student at the University of South Florida obtaining a degree in English literature. I attended one of the nation's best high schools, according to Newsweek. I received my International Baccalaureate program certifying me to master challenging courses for greater, global knowledge. I've been a tutor at the Lake Worth Library for five years. I've helped children of all ages think critically. I have tutored students in AP English Literature and IB English Literature. I also help students achieve their writing skills by improving vocabulary. I am also available to tutor in Spanish. The goal I have for my students is to reveal to them that they are capable of obtaining the knowledge that is

I have work experience in teaching students with ECDD, Autism, Mental Retardation, Speech Impaired, Learning Disabilities, and other health impaired. The diversity of my academic preparation and work experience, from my internship as a teacher in a mental institution to employment as a Special Education teacher, has prepared me to be an effective educator. I am a teacher because I enjoy hard work and helping others discover success.  I want my students to experience meaningful, interesting learning that applies to their lives.  I believe this can be accomplished through the use of hands-on/minds-on activities, cooperative learning, an integrated curriculum, and, when possible, technology and the Internet. While residing in New York City I obtained a Master of Science degree in Special Education. This degree has given me additional teaching strategies which I apply within the classroo

I am a genuine, caring Master Teacher reaching over 7000 students by making learning experiences real and connecting academics to real life. The letters by students and parents to thank me are truly inspiring. I provide the best approach of learning they need. The key is to believe in them and teach toward their learnign style. The keys are to achieve their academic and personal goals. Working through their interest then building what they need academically motivates them. I set high expectations and make no excuses.

I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I love teaching and working with all children, so I try to find your child's style of learning. I am patient, easy going, and my goal is to provide the best education possible for your child. A good educator can make a world of difference in your child's education. I make a difference in all of my students' lives. As a graduate of a accelerated degree program , I was very much driven to achieve a high level of education in a short amount of time. I have earned two degrees, BS in Film and MS in Entertainment Business, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of Film/TV and Business. In addition, I have learned extensive grammatical skills due to writing research papers and laboratory reports, along with essays in many various areas of study. I've written two complete business plans in the last year. During t

I love spending time with children and teaching them new things. It is exciting to see children learn and make progress in school. When dealing with a child that I do not know, I like to have them talk. I think talking to children about anything, not just school, can help form a relationship with them. I also like the parents to be involved and know what their child is struggling with and what exactly they expect from me.From experience, I have realized that some teachers might teach in a way that makes it difficult for some students to learn.A tutor may be a solution to this problem. I have an Interdisciplinary Social Science degree from the University of South Florida. While attending college, I worked as a nanny/tutor for 2 years. My time involved tutoring a young boy in all school subjects in 4th, 5th, and 6th grade. Not only did I help him with homework, but I also helped him lear

I taught high school for one year and middle school for a year and a half. I was certified to teach social studies 6-12, though I have let my certification expire. I have worked with middle school students for the past four years in an administrative and service capacity. I am an ex-Member of the Florida House of Representatives and have informally many students at the middle school level. My degree is is in Business, but my passion is social studies and reading. Teaching is enjoyable to me, but the bureaucracy of the school systems is not. I believe that there is no "one size fits all" when it comes to helping students learn. My children attended Montessori school during their elementary school years, and benefitted greatly from that method of education. They were treated as individuals and it well prepared them for the next steps in their educations. One of my children is a Jud

In my ten years of teaching I have consistently worked to improve my level of instruction through inservice and available learning resources. The strategies I have implemented in my classroom have been highly successful. I have had the opportunity over the last two years to tweak many of these ideas while tutoring students in math and reading. Eight of these ten years have been spent in fourth grade, which for Florida, is one of the three target grades for writing. As a result, I have attended and presented many training sessions on writing strategies including "six traits processing", "write traits", and differentiating between expository and narrative texts as a writer. I have a very strong background in all subject areas and I am flexible enough to assist students in just about any area they may be struggling with. My teaching style definitely has a tiered structure. Because ch

I know for a fact that all children have the ability to learn, and am confident that I can teach any child how to learn and retain information. I have a very positive and upbeat approach and feel that I can make a difference each and every day. I have worked with students of all ages since 1998.
