My teaching style is mostly relaxed, like a causal conversation. I have found people to be much more responsive to learning in this kind of atmosphere. I like to find out what my clients understanding level is, work with them towards strengthening that understanding, and use a verity of learning approaches to help them become self-sufficient in the area. "In the second grade my mom sent me to tutor. She was an older women and had once been a prominent local educator. She would sit me at her dining room table and have me do my homework while she watched soap operas in the next room. My experience was stagnant. I hated going to her house and I hated school work. In elementary and middle school, I was a C and D kind of student." "In the eighth grade we moved to a new city and I got a new tutor. It was at an after school program. There was one paid professional and two high school studen

I believe the first step is to always ascertain where a student is in their comprehension of the subject and what their propensity is to learn (i.e. quick learner, learns by examples etc.). That gives me an idea of how fast/slow to go and how best to get to cement actual learning. Generally, I like to get the student to arrive at answers by asking pointed questions so that their minds can understand the process versus simply memorizing the answers. I also believe in providing both positive feedback as well as constructive criticism where needed. I have always been fascinated by numbers and how the analysis of numbers can be used in nearly everything we do. I have a MBA from a top 20 program that has helped me further develop my mathematical skills in statistics and calculus. I have helped tutor children in various after-school volunteer programs and was a paid tutor while in u

Throughout high school and college, I've always excelled in my school work. I was president of the math club and often tutored my peers during my spare time. The University of Florida has provided me with a well rounded education, and I feel myself knowledgable in many areas, from languages like french, spanish and hindi, to the sciences like chemistry, biology, and physics. I'm also very familiar with writing term papers. I like to teach by example and immersion. So much of what schools preach today is rote memorization, and to a certain degree, this cannot be avoided. But whenever possible, I like to try and find real world applications and demonstrations to get my lessons across to my pupil.

I remember thinking years ago: "What will I ever use this for?" In tutoring my children, sometimes their friends, in addition to training my employees, I strive to create excitement by showing a need and an application for new information. I tend to retain information if I have a use for the knowledge, and believe others feel the same. Ignorance is simply the lack of information, and can be corrected with the proper presentation and guidance. The challenging and most rewarding is to find the method that "clicks" with the student, and seeing the light of realization in their eyes. Growing up the son of an English teacher, and a high school principal, education was obviously paramount in the home environment. I graduated from Indiana University with Business Degree, most of my work experience was in training and development of new employees, with a strong emphasis on demonstration, explain

While living in Japan, I taught English to the Japanese nationals and was a teacher's aide in the Department of Defense Dependent's Schools in the special needs department. I worked directly with middle school children who had ADD, ADHD as well as other physical handicaps including Cerebral Palsy. I have 3 children that I have had to help with their homework and projects throughout the years. I enjoy working with children and believe education is the key to developing responsible adults. I believe the best way to teach is to relate the subject to the children. A child may not understand fractions but if you ask them to divide up a candy bar, they know how many pieces they want to split it in to and how many they want. I believe that listening is the key to teaching. A good teacher and a good listener is the difference between a child attending school and a child excelling in school

I am a mother of two, a son who is 24 and a daughter who is 13. I enjoy being with children and especially high chool students. I like to teach with examples of real life situations and how they can apply what they are learning to their lives right now and in the future. I love teaching and working with children. I do believe all children can meet their potenital if they are given the appropirate surroundings and learning experiences. My goal is to provide the best education possible. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives. From 1997 to 2001, I was a software trainer in Ft. Lauderdale Florida for corporations and as a selfcontractor.

I have been a volunteer Sunday School Teacher for about twenty years teaching children and adults from ages 3 to 93. I have also taught scores of friends and relatives how to sail and water ski over the past three decades. I enjoy imparting knowledge to others so that they might learn and grow and so that their lives might be enriched because they have met me. I am patient and kind. I simplify subjects and teach using examples and stories. I try to engage the student with practical examples and when possible actual experiences. I put my heart and soul into teaching and my students appreciate that and enjoy my company, too.

My name is James and I am currently working for AXA-Advisors on a non-contractual basis enrolling public school employees into 403(b) retirement savings plans. The school year now-ending frees time for me to pursue a summer tutoring job for more personal income. I am interested in your position as a math/finance tutor. I am a 2010 graduate of Florida Gulf Coast University with a BS in Finance. I have never obtained any educators’ licenses and have limited experience tutoring, but would like the opportunity, and I have passed background checks for Lee and Collier district vendor badges. Communication of ideas is key to helping the student learn what is being taught to them. If your student understands and grasps ideas-concepts-formulas, reinforce them with exercises. But you must be keenly aware if they have difficulty, then you must help them to overcome problems by solving problems and

As a non-traditional student, my college experience awarded me many advantages, as well as, many opportunities to uncover hidden skills. I began tutoring for Student Support Services while attending community college in Southwest Virginia. I worked with adults, disabled and traditional students in many subject areas. This led to establishing the Eagle's Wing Mentoring Program while attending Florida Gulf Coast University for the first two years. I later transferred to the Office of Adaptive Services where I am currently still working with a wide variety of students. As I discovered while in college, I have been instructing people all of my life. While working in the food-service industry for the past twenty-plus years, I have held supervisory positions and provided training to literally hundreds of employees. This natural ability to work with others became apparent when I began tut

My teaching style would be the same way I teach my son. I give him the opportunity to learn. I work with him. I put the time in to help him. I take the time to help him, and if he get a problem wrong I help him correct it. I have been working in the banking field for over 15 years since I graduated with a degree in business. In Jan. 2009 I was laid off from a banking job for the second time. I am doing a career change to teaching. I have been hired as football coach at Estero High School, I will be working as a teacher this fall 2009. I have been fingerprinted by Lee County School and I am cleared to be employed. I have a son that is 8 years old I help with his home work every night. Last year in the second grade they wanted him to stay back, I said I would help him.

I am currently working as a full time History Teacher at the PACE Center for girls. I have also had the pleasure of substituting for the Lee County School District during the last half of this school year. Since I was fairly new to the area, I decided this would be the best way to become more familiar with the schools throughout the district. I also have experience working at the Southwest Florida Marine Institute as a business manager. I enjoyed interacting with the students there as well. This opportunity also allowed me to meet some wonderful administrators within the district. Although I enjoyed the Institute, I felt working more hands on with the students would better suit me. I have also worked with a few tutoring companies both locally and out of state.
