Education is essential for the mind to grow.

On the whole, I look for a rather creative approach when it comes to learning and studying. I ask that students be skeptical in all they hear and read, so asking questions as a form of studying will be essential. Just reading a book or looking at flash cards for studying purposes can prove to be tedious and ineffective. And putting what's learned in context is always necessary if the subject calls for any everyday application.
I have helped people with their English-speaking skills off and on and am very skilled in spelling and grammar. I've been learning Japanese for going on three years, as well. I'm aware that it's not a particularly high in-demand language to learn, but I am more than willing to aid in learning it if it is desired. Also, having graduated high school, I have enough knowledge to teach kids about the basics of science, math, and English.

Let's get you an A!

I find it partucularly useful to take time to get to know the student's interests so that I can relate each subject to things that the student is familiar with. Making this connection between a difficult concept and the student's personal areas of interest helps the student feel comfortable with the subject and therefore more confident thinking through each question presented. Once confidence is established, it becomes easier for students to develop an understanding of the subject area that can be applied without the tutor present.
I began tutoring math, composition, and biology in college for 3 years and loved it! I graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in Biology with and minor in math. After college I continued tutoring middle school and high school students in math and biology in both a one-on-one and small group setting. I have been tutoring now for over 4 years and genuinely enj ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am a recent Bachelor of Science in Child Studies graduate of FGCU and hold a current FCCPC. I am considered a non-traditional graduate (which in my case means older), and I bring with me a range of personal and professional experiences that have developed and enhanced my capacity for learning, teaching, and adaptability. My primary interest in learning is focused on the social-emotional and cognitive influences that create the optimal conditions for brain function during the learning process. Providing both the necessary supportive social-emotional environment through positive guidance as well as the cognitive stimulation that physical, sensory, and creative and artistic activities produce are fundamental to implementing a brain-based learning approach, and I am trained to integrate hands-on activities across the curriculum and learning domains that relate to real world experiences. ... read more

I like to make teaching fun! If a student is bored they aren't going to be putting 100% into their work. I also use a positive reward system and celebrate all achievement. Even if it is minor.
I have been working with kids of all ages for a long time. I love to see them learn and grow. That moment when they "get" something is magical! I spent the 2011-2012 school year teaching at a title 1 school in Collier County and have grown exponentially from it! I had several students in my class who needed special help, and half of my class were English language learners. These students have helped me to strengthen my skills and adapt to different student's styles.

A Little Bit About Me...

I worked full-time for Okeechobee Eckerds Juvenile home for boys and the Polk County School District. In these positions, I was a reading teacher. I did work many years as a teacher, aide, and assistant that taught special needs learners to strengthen writing, math, and reading difficulties. Hence this gave me experience with many learning situations like one on one and whole group studious conditions. At all academic levels at Elmira College, I helped students to succeed at their scholarly endeavors. As a parent, I guided own daughters to be successful learners. This makes me an excellent candidate to help the next generation to be set on the pathway to thrive in their life vision.
My teaching is guided by the needs of my learners; hence, I create learning by setting my students on their needs and interests to life-long academic endeavors. On this journey, I help to develop stra ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have worked with children for what seems like my whole life, mostly through church. I know that every child can succeed with the right help. I myself am caring, compassionate, patient, and encouraging. I believe that my Communication degree has given me the unique ability to be able to explain problems in concepts in many different ways, which allows me to discover which works best for each student. I also try to relate problems and concepts, especially those that students are not fond of, to their personal lives, whether it be through what they'll need to do in college in order to pursue their dream, or how it applies to real life. I strive to help children embrace the learning of all subjects.
I have always been driven to succeed, especially in school. I graduated magna cum laude with my BA in Communication this past December. This degree increased my own ability to communicate ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe in the power of education. I have a reputation for honesty. I make students work harder then they ever thought they could. I can make students sit through 45 minutes of instruction when thier own parents cannot make them sit for 5 minutes. I have the ability to make students wonder, question, have respect and take responsibility for thier actions. I teach them to write, read, read, read. I make my students feel safe and tell them if they use the gifts that were given and follow thier hearts, they can succeed. I make a difference that is what is important.
Holding a BS in Business Management and a BS in Criminal Justice and going on to earn my MS in Criminal Justice, I was driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. Earning two BS degrees enable me to understand behaviors in two levels of human behavior in two different fields of endeavor. Going on to ea ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a positive outgoing individual who has taught at the college level since 2002. My undergraduate degree is in communications and my masters is in business administration. I engaged the students by taking the textbook theories and applying those learnings to every day living and issues that they can relate to and ask questions to stimulate the thought process. I have instructed a student in math for over 1 month thus allowing him to pass 9th grade math and have instructed students in 5, 6, 7 & high school in science and social studies while I was a substitute teach for the Wapakoneta School systems. In my undergraduate work, I have taken various science, history and math classes in order to get my college degrees.
I have a passion for students and get them engaged with the learning process immediately. I am very patient, listen openly and treat students both with dignity and p ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am certified to teach both math and reading in Florida. I am particularly strong in helping students to understand the basics. I became a teacher because I feel that I can make a positive difference in my students' lives while providing them quality instruction from a teacher who truly cares. My last teaching assignments were in preparing high risk students to pass the FCAT and the GED. My students exhibited a ninety-seven percent pass rate on both tests upon passing my class.
Students should be taught as individuals based on their particular learning styles. People learn at their own rate. My philosophy is that all students can be successful if taught by a caring qualified teacher in a positive learning environment. I thoroughly enjoy the challenges of teaching. My reward comes when my students are successful in learning and develop positive self-esteems towards learning ... read more
