I know the basic moves and strategies. My style is student centered. I always try to provide a positive atmosphere for learning. My jokes were a technique to help accomplish that goal. As a GED teacher I always began with a pretest and documented student progress to correct any deficiencies. I believe in positive reinforcement and helping students achieve their goals which gives us both a sense of accomplishment. I am an honors graduate of U.S.F. with forty years of teaching experience. In addition to my B.A. and M.A. degrees, I completed all cousework for the ED.D. I have taught FCAT preperation in middle school in math and reading. I have also taught GED Prep in the evenings.

The world of today is marked by an over abundance of information. An internet search on any subject yields thousands of results, often with conflicting ideas. Critical thinking is now more important than ever. I take this point of view into tutoring sessions in that I challenge the student to understand the process, as opposed to just memorizing the steps. Through strengthening general thought processes and decision making skills, the student benefits in all subjects while learning a particular item. I work hard to keep the session fun and the gaining of knowledge a pleasure. Having traveled through nearly fifty countries, I can also offer a uniquely international perspective. Most importantly, I understand that the benefit of tutoring is the highly specialized attention the child can receive. Thus, I make assessing, and adapting to, the specific needs of each child a top priority. Comin

I was taught by my mentor to allow the tutee to teach themselves. Instead of making corrections for them, it was our writing center's policy to insist that each student held their own pen and made their own corrections. We would engage in discussion and challenge them to spot their own mistakes, acting as an invisible hand guiding them towards the knowledge that would serve them throughout their academic career instead of us becoming a quick fix for the present tense. Nothing is better than the look of recognition on a tutee's face when the light bulb goes off and you know that they simply "got it." While I was employed as a writing tutor in college, I was also taking additional courses to improve my skill set as a tutor. We focused on interpersonal communication and reaching out to students regardless of any baggage brought into the tutoring session. I worked as an undergraduate teachin

Having been a secondary school educator for so many years, I have observed the changes in trends in teaching as well as in learning. I have adapted my personal views to change with the trends so that I could incorporate novel techniques and personal creativity to enable all students to achieve at least to the height of their abilities. I have learned in corporate computer technogy to maximize efforts to reinforce students' efforts to use available resources to help them learn better and faster at all levels. I prefer inductive teaching rather than imposing lectures. An interactive style enables students to feel they are a part of the process and it personalizes the activities so that a feeling of success is ever present to solidify the foundations upon which to build a substantial knowledge base. I take the students from where they are to where they could be and urge them with positive f

Good English instructors should persist in cultivating knowledge in the disciplines of reading and writing, as well as teaching. They should also develop insights into the obstacles faced by a wide range of students and be able to provide specially formulated guidance necessary to motivate them. As a tutor, more than just teaching students how to pass their assigned material, my goal is to encourage students to realize their full potential as scholars and proactive citizens. As an Honors Program graduate, my BA in English literature has motivated me to develop strong reading and writing skills. While writing research essays and my Honors thesis, I developed a critical understanding of grammar, sentence structure, as well as how to develop a strong, provocative thesis and support it with evidence. For the past several years, I have helped my fellow students study various subjects, partic

As a graduate student in New York City, I learned a unique way to teach children. This method involves presenting material in a clear and concise fashion, and then asking the student questions as the lesson continues. This method of continual questioning keeps the student alert and reveals whether or not they comprehend the material. I adopted this method to counter the less effective lecture style of teaching. I have taught private lessons to young students throughout my college career. Being a musician, a lot of our instruction is done on a one-to-one basis. During these years I developed an ability to make lessons not only educational but also fun. I believe education is most successful when it is presented in an interesting format. Aside from my experience in the music field, I have studied most other academic fields as a college student, including algebra, precalculus, biology, Eng

I believe learning is easiest when students are having fun. It is for this reason that I always try to connect concepts to things the student knows or wants to know. There is a real joy in learning new things and my goal is to nurture the excitement of discovery. I am patient, easy going and considerate. I realize each student has a unique learning style so I strive to establish a partnership between us. Together we will find academic success and reach our goals. I am an applied scientist with extensive experience in the Air Force, industry and education. My doctorate is in physics but I have been a weather forecaster, a school board member and president of a state dairy goat association. I have written numerous technical reports and project proposals and have graded thousands of lab reports. My vast and varied background enables me to connect math and science concepts to everyday

As a professional athlete, I know what kind of work ethic it takes to excel in athletics as well as education. I had a double major and minor in college and earned my degree with a 3.5 GPA while playing baseball full-time. I have always excelled in mathematics and Spanish and feel more than competent teaching other areas as well. Through my two years of teaching students ranging from 3rd grade through community college, every single student improved their grades, a fact that gives me much pride and satisfaction. I enjoyed teaching all age groups, but I feel that there is one continuing thread that I try to keep in all my tutoring sessions. The teachers from my past that made the greatest impact on me pushed me to be a better student that I thought I was capable of, and I try to use this tact when I teach. I also try to keep it as low-stress as possible, since most students are alrea
