My comments on tutoring Florida Writes : I grew up in Florida, so I am familiar with the content.

Although I have never tutored professionally, I have had extensive experience tutoring friends and family in need. I am experienced in tutoring young children as well as classroom peers at my level. I have two bachelor degrees from UCF, Bio-medical Science and Psychology, and I feel confident in my ability to help anyone learn. I'm looking to earn extra money while completing my Master's degree at UCF.

A Little Bit About Me...

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.
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.

More About This Tutor...

I believe all children are capable of learning, if you can find something that excites and interests them. I am patient with my students and believe that teachers are there to help each child to find his or her own learning style and potential. As a teacher, I am there to guide each student and find out what works for them as an individual, then go from there to build upon that knowledge. It is important to challenge each student to be the best he or she can be.
I was an elementary school teacher for 11 years. I taught second and third grades. I also worked part time teaching reading and FCAT skills to elementary students from third to fifth grades. During the time I was teaching I also tutored students in other classes in math and reading.

A Little Bit About Me...

I earned my Bachelors of Arts degree while working full time. I also continued to pursue employment that enabled me to work on my own. I have tutored not only my child to become an A/B student but also worked with another student, voluntarily, who was struggling in school. In today's work environment whether you strive to go to college or become a tradesperson your ability to learn is paramount. Having a tutor or coach to assist the student can be a rewarding experience for the student as well as the teacher.
I love the learning process and the excitement of success. I believe that not all students learn the same way and am commited to finding the connection that will make the child that I tutor successful. I live for the "ah ha" moment when we both realize that the information has been learned and retained.

A Little Bit About Me...

I continue to strive to educate myself and others to the highest degree possible. I have earned my bachelor degree in Early Childhood Education and my masters in Educational Leadership. I currently hold National Board Certification as well as a Reading Endorsement. I taught kindergarten for six years and first grade for two years. I was the educational technology facilitator for a year, and I am currently the reading coach/facilitator, a position that I have been in for two years now.
I have a passion for teaching and working with children. I teach at a Title One school and have a firm belief that ALL children can learn. I believe that everyone learns at different rates and through various teaching styles. I am a true believer that it "takes a village to raise/educate a child." There is no one person responsible for a child's success, but a group of people who help shape a ... read more

Worked for Lake County Schools as a substitute teacher for a year. Worked in classrooms from K to advanced level high school. I have also homeschooled my son for 5 years. I have experience with students with reading difficulty and tailoring learning to the child. Currently I am working on my masters degree in teaching where many of my classes prepare me to be a reading specialist. I am also licensed to administer the SAT and IOWA achievement test in a group or individual setting. After earning a BA in Psychology I realized how much I love reading so I continued to ear a BA in English. Theareafter I enrolled for the Masters Degree in Education to learn how to pass my love of reading to students I will teach.
I believe that the curriculum should be tailored to the learning style of the child and not the other way around. Learning especially reading is a slow process where small ste ... read more

Tutored students for GED exams at Seminole Community College and was a Adjunct instructor for accounting and federal taxation at several colleges in the Orlando area. As a owner of a CPA firm and as a tax manager in a local CPA firm I have always enjoyed teaching and training the young employees in the firm. I believe one on one teaching is the most effective and successful way to teach a subject.
I love teaching young students and helping them succeed in their lives through education. I believe a good education is the one sure way any young person can succeed to better their lives and increase their options for good jobs. I also believe that one good teacher with the right passion and patience can help change the life of a willing student.

I enjoy helping students to get involved in their studies by using hands on manipulatives, games, and real life situations. I believe the role of the teacher is to be a facilitator for her students. She needs to support, promote, recruit, encourage, model, and explain. My goals are to create an environment conducive to learning, make learning fun, and help to build self-confidence and self-esteem in my students. Each student's progress needs to be continually assessed to further guide the student while challenging and motivating him/her to succeed. I know that given the time and the assistance needed, anyone can learn. The time invested in our children is such a wise investment because our children of today are tomorrow's future.

Education has been a life-long love of mine. I firmly believe that each child, when given the proper tools, can succeed! I am an educator who believes that the student must come first, in that way we can better meet the needs of said student. I have an easygoing attitude and use encouragement to help improve my students desire to become the best they can be. I feel that open communication between tutor and classroom teacher can only further student success and will work to attain an open connection with school personnel.
