More About This Tutor...

I prefer to teach in a hands on fashion, but the most important aspect of my style is to adjust my methods to meet the needs of the student. I incorporate study and test taking skills into most tutoring sessions and specialize in tips and tricks for areas of difficulty.
I have taught elementary school in private and public settings, in both New York City and Florida. I taught high school English and Global Studies in New York city. I have worked as a tutor in general subjects for elementary students, as well as for Reading, Language, and Biology for high school anc dollege students. I have also helped prepare adult students for the TABE, GED, and similar tests.

If it can be fun, make it fun. If not, make it short.

My motto is if at all possible, I want to make learning fun. When that's impossible, let's get it over with quickly, so we can get back to the fun part. I'm a lifelong learner, so I practice what I preach.
Throughout my teaching and tutoring career, I have often found that I can help my students achieve beyond what was expected of them. At the end of this process, my biggest joy is to see my student successfully working on the tasks without my assistance. I've taught in public school and private school from PreK through 12th grade and even adult learners. Elementary students have learned to read. A high school senior learned to do basic math for the first time in his life. Homeschooling my own children was another such amazing time in my growth as an educator. I love sharing my knowledge, or even learning together with my students. One such case was when I coached a parent thro ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have eight years of tutoring experience for students ranging from second grade to high school seniors. This tutoring has been in a variety of topics, from elementary phonics to high school geometry to handwriting. I have also had experience in tutoring for standardized tests such as the SAT, ACT, and FCAT.
Every student has strengths and weaknesses, and these should be determined for efficient tutoring. I believe in helping the student to learn and making sure they have the knowledge and help to understand the material themselves.

Active participation defines my teaching style. I truly like and enjoy my students. Because of this sincerity, the students seem to enjoy it as well.

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

My BA degree is in Business Administration. I worked as an accountant and a paralegal before becoming certfied to teach. I have strong math skills and am currently tutoring a freshman in Algebra. My Florida certification covers grades K-6. As a kindergarten teacher, I was one of two teachers out of eight that was able to get my entire class on grade level by midyear according to the DIBELS standards. My experience as a paralegal focused on my writing skills. I was often consulted for my grammar and vocabulary knowledge.
I like to use fun and innovative strategies to intrinsically motivate my students. Children learn in many different ways. One of the benefits of the tutoring process is that I can find the strategy that works best for each student. I want to help your children be successful students and instill a confidence and love of learning that will serve them for the re ... read more

I have taught K-3rd grade in reading, math, writing and speech skills for 5 years as a teacher's assistant. I have also taught English as a second language to adults who were incarcerated for 5 years. My English and communications are excellent and I am very creative when teaching the above subjects. I use a number of materials to compensate for books that sometimes children do not comprehend. I have also tutored grade school students when I lived in North Carolina.
I have developed many creative materials to accomodate all children to be able to understand what they are learning. I have a compassion for all children as I do believe they want to learn but sometimes have fear of learning. I have always believed that children can learn in many ways and it takes a creative, intelligent mind to accomplish their learning needs. I have always put the child or adult first in the le ... read more

I have a Bachelor's degree in Speech Language Pathology field as an Assistant. I graduated 11 years ago from University of Puerto Rico Medical Science Campus. During my bachelor's degree I took some curses of American Sign Language. From 8/1998 to 2/2002 I worked in Clinica de Terapias Pediatricas working in one on one basis with students to get them improve in the areas of speech, language and comprehension. While I was working with them I used to help the students in all school matters like math, language arts and sciences. After that time I took some time and started giving tutorials at home to students of elementary school having them improving every single area seeing results from D to B.

I enjoy teaching and watching children learn. I do believe that all children can learn and should be given an opportunity to succeed. Once I attended a Teacher training where the speaker talked about how all children can learn, but they have different learning styles. I agree that each child learns different and deserves a chance to learn and be taught the manner in which they can learn. I believe and often teach students that education is the key to their future and no one should deny you an education. I am a caring teacher and parent. I have had much success in the classroom and as a tutor. Presently I tutor for another local company in Ocala. But I welcome a chance, once again to tutor a student in their home environment. I have found the success rate is greater when students are in their own environment. I want to make a difference in a child's life and give them a fair chance at lif ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My qualifications include a Masters in the Science of Education (MSE) from Harding University in TESOL and a Bachelor of General Studies (BGS) degree from Radford University in TESOL and I minored in intercultural communications to help me better understand my students and their families. At Radford I developed my own course of studies in TESL with approval of the Educational Department. Part of this education was completed in Italy. While working In Washington DC I continued my education and kept up with new teaching methods by taking courses as PD or through local universities.
As a teacher I will have a big part in shaping the lives of students. As a teacher I hope to make learning an exciting and interesting part of their lives. For students, their possibilities are endless and we have to make them aware that they can achieve anything. A teacher is not only responsible for g ... read more
