Super tutor!

I place a high value on formal education and believe strongly in lifelong learning, for the betterment of the individual and, ultimately, for society. While raising three young children, I obtained my undergraduate degree in business administration. In later acquiring a law degree, I was introduced to the rigorous demands of such study and to the fascinating arena of reasoning and analytical thinking required by this discipline. I have tutored young children intermittenly over several years, with one stint of four years length as a Literacy Volunteer teaching English to children of war refugees.
I enjoy teaching and observing my students' different learning styles. I respect each student's individual method of assimilation. I work hard to accommodate his or her particular needs. I delight in the dynamics of the classroom and strongly believe that I can make a difference in whether ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have a good experience of tutoring hundreds of students over a decade period of time. I have tutored from first grade student to bachelors' degree students. I have formally taught students from grades four to ten for six months as a science teacher. Recently, I helped my wife in Anatomy and Physiology I and II and Lab and College Algebra. She got straight A's in them upgrading her GPA. Most importantly, my tutoring helped my students to uplift their self-esteem, confidence and to accept learning as a process which can be made more pleasant and simple. :)

Summary of Experience I have taught for the last three years (2005-2008) at an Elementary school in Palm Beach County. I taught third grade. This is the grade level where students are expected to pass the Reading portion of the FCAT test in order to be promoted to the next grade. Therefore, one of my main responsibilities was to maintain records of the students’ progress. Prior to that, I was a substitute teacher in Broward County at the elementary level. My spouse was transferred to Tallahassee this year, and this is what brought me here. At the moment I volunteer at the Leroy Collins Public Library as an ESOL (English as a Second Language) tutor. I am currently certified in the state of Florida in Elementary Education (K-12, and Spanish. I also worked for the Florida Department of Agriculture for eight years, and overseas at bilingual schools

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is very comforting, fun, and yields results. I know with nurture, time, patience, resources, and love ALL children can learn. I am an advocate of allowing children to try and work independently. I feel giving a child that confidence to allow them to make mistakes and be able to correct themselves is powerful. Being an ESE teacher has allowed me to differentiate my students in learning groups that will allow them to learn from each other and to grow as great scholars. They laugh, discuss, and learn together. My teaching style is a warm, family like environment. I love what I do!
A graduate of Florida State University, I initially started out teaching children and their parents about good eating habits at the Health Dept. I wanted to partake in the school system, so I began teaching as a Title 1 teacher. I was teaching small groups of individuals that needed so ... read more

Simply put – I enjoy teaching. My two years experience in the classroom consists of teaching Mathematics at all levels, from FCAT Math thru Trigonometry.

I have a passion for teaching and love working with children. I believe any child is capable of learning if the material is presented in a way they understand.

A Little Bit About Me...

All learning starts with a question, both by teacher and student alike. My role is both as teacher (coach and guide) and student (questioner). I should employ a variety of questioning techniques to better understand strengths and weaknesses, then prescribe remedies tailored for individual strengths and weaknesses, facilitating the learning process and desired outcome. Most people know intuitively how they learn, as well as which modalities work best for them. Paying attention, listening, probing with questions, observing responses, being patient is the first part of my job. Often times the student knows what works best and can even tell you. So I just need to pay attention. Once the diagnosis is evident then I can prescribe, or at least give suggestions that help facilitate the desired outcome. Then it's evaluate, make adjustments, continue and expand on new learning sets and ac ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As an elementary teacher, I have taught in large and small group settings for grades 1-6. I have worked with special groups in my gifted instructor position, individual students that need assistance with reading and primary level math. I have spoken to parent and teacher groups in regard to curriculum and learning environments that facilitate success.
Facilitating thinking and learning is a good descriptor of my teaching style. I listen to the students to find out their interests in order to frame their learning. I use questioning on different levels to generate connections across curriculum areas. I use different ways to present materials: oral, written, read aloud, look at questions before reading. Using a variety of styles, strengths, and interests of the student keeps learning fresh.

I am a firm believer that one must want to learn in order to be taught. That "want" can be learned over time, and the desire to pass on knowledge and be caring, considerate, and nurturing is part of my makeup. I really love hanging out with kids and seeing the beautiful, innocent way that their minds work. I would love to play a role in making someones life better, and giving the start for productivity.Every child is like a blank slate, and the experiences they have early on make a huge difference.
I have had much education, reading is one of my favorite things to do. Although I was a science major, I did teach throughout my masters degree. Teaching is never simple, there are so many things to learn. I do believe that I would be capable of teaching pretty much anything, and I am very good with children. I can provide any references that you will need.

I own my own science consulting firm and like to dedicate a certain percentage of my time to education and public outreach projects including teaching, mentoring, and tutoring. I have taught high school and college students on and off since 1986 and have had several students go on to VERY successful careers, perhaps one of the best ways to evaluate ones ability as a teacher. My most recent success (2006-07) was a 7th grade C and B student who had straight A's after only two months of working together and finished 7th grade with straight A's. Her confidence level increased dramatically (as noted by her family and friends) and she now has set her sights on Harvard as a real possibility someday.
I tailor my teaching style to the student. Throughout the years I have recognized that each student has a different way of learning and I make it my goal to adapt to them, to try to reach them ... read more

I am a firm believer in learning through discovery, I feel children learn through a variety of ways and just need someone who can help them discover the way that works best for them. I believe that all children have the ability to learn and grasp concepts it may just take a different approach to teach the child. I have always like the famous Chinese proverb "If you give a man a fish you feed him for a day, if you TEACH a man to fish you feed him for a lifetime." I have made it my life mission to make sure that children are given the skills to feed them for a lifetime.

I believe that all students deserve the quality teachers and resources to reach their personal potential.
