I Promise that you will have fun while you Learn!

Children say that I am so patient and relaxed. One little girl asked me last week, "how come I don't grate on your nerves? My mom says I grate on her nerves." Well, no child has ever "grated on my nerves" :) Children know I care about them and we develop a mutual respect for each other.

As a University of South Florida college of education graduate I have a wealth of experience with teaching both in the classroom and on a one to one basis. I have successfully tutored students in english, reading comprehension, science and social sciences. During my internship I taught all manner of history classes including AP world history and Psychology. In addition I have tutored for 5 years at all age and skill levels.
My teaching style is to show students how to make themselves successful. By motivating my students to do their best every time I can help them exceed expectations and thrive under any situation both academically and socially. Many students focus on what they think they cannot do. What I teach them is to highlight their strengths and improve their weaknesses. I do so with the use of clear directions, constant monitoring, and positive praise. I believe every child ... read more

I enjoy working with older children especially those in high school. I strongly believe that all students can suceed in the classroom as long as they have a good understanding of the materials being taught. And I make it my mission to make sure my students gain this understanding and will use any measure or teaching tool to ensure this. I am extremely patient and understanding with students and my ultimate goal is to see them suceed.
As a recent college graduate, I have a dedicated work ethic and a high performance level in the classroom which will translate onto the students I work with.

More About This Tutor...

I started tutoring high school students; helping them with anything from test prep to organizational and study skills. I then started tutoring younger children helping them complete their homework, understand their material, and how to study for tests. I have over seven years experience tutoring students and getting results. I love children and helping them succeed in school is my passion.
I am very patient with students. I am not quick to tell them how to do a problem or what the answer is because the student will never learn how to do it on their own. I allow the student to work through the problem, offering my assistance along the way.

More About This Tutor...

As a graduate of Sociology I have gained a lot of knowledge about how society functions. I was interested in this area of study to understand peoples because I have always had compassion for others. I have participated in a 4 unit class where i taught Spanish to 8-11 year old children and it consisted of developing a plan that included songs and dancing to learn Spanish in a fun and animated way. I have done research on homelessness, and had an internship with a non profit that provides social services for those in need. Working closely with this organization has helped me assess peoples needs and use problem solving skills to help individuals in a variety of situations.
I enjoy teaching and working with children and feel that it is important to understand that not all students learn the same way. I feel that my college experience has taught me to discover the ways I learn and und ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My goal as a tutor is to awaken in students a genuine love of learning and to provide them with meaningful opportunities to acquire the skills they need to succeed in their chosen paths. Passion for growth, commitment to excellence, enthusiasm for exploring new ideas, and a growing sense of self-mastery: these are the qualities that I seek to cultivate in my students, whatever their age. My approach to tutoring incorporates a sensitivity to the unique goals, interests, and learning preferences that all students bring to the process, so they feel connected to what they are learning and recognize that their studies have enduring value.
As an Ivy League graduate, the son of a professor, and the husband of a professor, I have a deep love of learning and teaching. With a BA in Psychology and an MA in Interdisciplinary Studies, I have been professionally involved in teaching, training, t ... read more
