Tutoring By Sam! Core Studies Tutor with over 13 years Exp!

I gear my teaching style to the individual I am working with. In 14 years I have learned that even though a method may work for one student, it does not necessarily mean it will work for another. In the first few session I test a small variety of applicable teaching methods and adapt them as time goes on.
I have been working with students in both one-on-one and group settings for going on 14 years. I began tutoring groups of children at an inner city after school program in Language Arts and Reading Comprehension. I went into further training at my high school and became a designated math tutor for those in Pre-Algebra, Algebra I and Geometry. After high school I revisted my loved for tutoring at Jefferson County Community College where I tutored Reading Comprehension, Composition, and Study Skills. Throughout the years I have tutored a variety of students in various areas through ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

The thing I love most about teaching is opening up someones eyes to something new and seeing the "wow" look on their faces. Sometimes certain subject matter is not always easy for a person to learn. I've always appreciated the teacher that went out of their way with a great amount of patience to make sure I understood. I take a lot from the amazing teachers I've had and would hope to be able to pass that on.
I began my higher education at Tallahassee Community College in 1997. After receiving my AA Degree I transferred to F.S.U where I majored in Criminology with a minor in Spanish and graduated in 2003. Since that time, I've worked as a legal assistant/paralegal with different law firms in town. Recently, I decided to return to school and received my certificate in Massage Therapy.

My experience with children and education are linked through my travels. I worked in a day care in Asheville North Carolina. I also volunteered at a mosque when I lived in London. I visited many schools when I went to Morocco. I am a student at Florida State University, working for a double-major in Creative Writing and Middle Eastern Studies. I have taken many English technique classes such as; poetry, essay, and fiction. I have extensive skills in grammar and English structure. My goal is to teach English abroad. I believe that education is the best tool you can give a child.

The teachers who continue to influence me and affect my day-to-day life are those who had a genuine passion for teaching and a contagious love for their subject. They were the best teachers, not only because they possessed the necessary knowledge, but because they were animated and caring and able to cater to students' needs. I believe all children can be made to see the benefits of education through the right teaching methods. If there is anything I do not know, I am able to research and learn about it independently. The most memorable teachers did not always know the answer, but they always knew where to find it or how to help the students find it. I take these lessons to heart and hope to use them to help others.
I have always found myself adept at teaching. I have a great deal of patience and a genuine fondness for instruction. As a journalism major from UF, I gain ... read more

If there's one thing I've learned from my last several years of teaching, it's that each student learns in his/her own way, and it's the job of the teacher to perceive those needs and tailor their teaching style to meet them. Although society is more aware of this now than ever before, today's classroom structure is severely detrimental to meeting a diverse array of needs. Tutoring is one way to combat the growing trend of disproportionate teacher/student ratios, and I look forward to providing the kind of personalized instruction every student deserves. Moreover, after years of interpreting and teaching the lesson plans of other teachers, I've developed a talent for gauging their expectations, and can help those students I tutor learn to do the same.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that the relationship between student and teacher is one between equals, and that each must actively work together in order to accomplish a student's goals. This educational relationship and teaching style is heavily influenced by the Fine Arts and other creative pursuits that also maintains a strong hold on basic concepts in every subject. My role as a tutor, therefore, is to find each student's particular learning style in order to communicate fundamental knowledge in a subject, while also giving them the critical thinking and problem solving skills that will allow them to grow and enlarge their educational experience far beyond any single tutoring session.

Throughout my undergraduate years, I knew that educating youth was something I was very passionate about so I made sure to not ignore my passion. I completed a minor in Education including such courses as: Classroom Reading, Evaluation and Measurement in Education, Core Classroom Management Strategies, Intro to Special Education, and Young Adolescence. Also, I have had several hands-on experiences including, an opportunity to tutor students one-on-one at an elementary school, and to serve as a classroom assistant at both an elementary and middle school.
I am a very attentive person who reaches children where they are with respect to learning. I prefer to differentiate instruction based on a child's learning style, comprehension level, and prior knowledge. I am a very positive, motivational person who gives lots of positive reinforcements during the learning process.

I've been told that I have a unique style of teaching. I like to teach using rhymes, antonyms, and relating the subject to familiar life situations. My experience with this style of teaching seems to help students retain information better while simultaneously enjoying the process. I try to incorporate fun into the learning process and always commend students for achieving their goals. Many times I offer incentives for improving grades or improved test scores/progress reports. I try to make the tutoring process enjoyable for both me and the student, while also making sure the student learns as much as possible in each session.

A Little Bit About Me...

Through my assistantship, I discovered that teaching was my passion. I believe in teaching writing through the drafting process and encourage students to be proactive about revision. I also believe that is absolutely necessary to communicate with each student individually; I always require individual conferences outside of class time. I also believe in balancing praise with criticism so that the student develops security about his or her writing, and I also believe that detailed written and oral response to a draft opens a dialogue about the writing that draws the student into the process.
