More About This Tutor...

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

I'm a summa cum laude cultural anthropologist with field work experience in the Americas, Asia, Africa and the Middle East. I also worked for BP as geophysicist for the exploration department. I taught middle and high school in the middle east in the areas of Physical Science, Modern languages and Modern History. For three years I taught college students here in Florida Humanities and Anthropology. I have also privately tutored middle/high school and college level students in mathematics.
We educate students into the discipline of their choice in order to facilitate the achievement of their goals. The students in my classroom have a dream and that is the reason they are there, to pursue that dream. As an educator, my mission is to act as the facilitator of that dream. I help my students reach the goals that they have set for themselves, usually by translating textbook knowledge ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Teachers,as well as students, need to take responsibility for their actions. I have always given 100 percent to my students, and I expect students to give their all in return. I understand all too well, however, that many students suffer from disabilities which interfere with their educations. I have taken that understanding under consideration when instructing. I love more than anything a student who thanks me for my influence or teaching ability; I love more than anything opening a world of learning in a student.
Holding a BA in English Education, I graduated valedictorian from my college. During my formal years of education, I worked as a tutor for the Manchester, N.H. School District. After graduation, I obtained seventh-grade teaching position. After three years, I obtained an English teaching position in an academy, where I taught the following courses for seven years: Bri ... read more

The last four years I have tutored at risk teenagers for a NY public school district. I also tutored privately. In NY I was a substitute teacher for K-12 which gave me experience in the different subject levels pursuant to each grade. Prior to NY, I was employed by Orange County Public Schools in Orlando, Florida where I taught both 8th grade and 9th grade classes. I currently hold a temporary certificate with Florida and am finishing my Master's. My certificate is in General Science 5-9 but I have tutored other subject areas sucessfuly as well including GED prep and FCAT prep.
My approach to tutoring is one of patience, practice and fun. I believe in staying on topic but also be available to detour to relevant topics that may broaden the application of the subject being studied. Through the use of computers, research and practical examples, my students are given different approac ... read more

As a graduate from the University of South Florida, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I earned my bachelor degree, BA in History, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of the social sciences as well as reading and writing. I had to learn extensive grammatical skills due to writing research papers and thesis papers, along with essays in many various areas of study. During the last five years I have tutored students in history, English, psychology, the arts, mathematics, and sciences.
I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am available to help your child find academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providing a const ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love working with children who need a little extra support. The proud look of accomplishment children who struggle have when they succeed is very rewarding. For a student to really understand a math they need to learn the concept not just the formula. Many times this means taking the abstract and making them as concrete as possible. Every student can learn with some modifications and a little extra work.
My first teaching experience came from tutoring my own daughter who has a learning disability.This experience has taught me to see first hand the difficulties children can have learning new concepts. Happily my daughter graduated from Keiser University with honors. I also teach a High School Geometry and Algebra Two class. Students and parents have both expressed that my warm nature and straight forward explanations have made learning difficult concepts much easier.

I have my Florida state teachers certification a strong letters of recommendation from my previous principals and have years of experience teaching k-12 students. A few of my career high lights are as follows, I have taught both disadvantaged children in Brooklyn, NY and gifted and talented highschool students in MD, as well as substitute teaching in all subjects for the Teachers 2000 Program. I am currently working toward my master’s degree in art education from The George Washington University.
I have taught to all ages in many different settings and subjects. I find one on one tutoring to be the most rewarding and effective. I would not only teach students to create a positive learning environment but work to build study and learning habits to nurture their knowledge and critical thinking skills in a developmentally appropriate manner for each age group and skill level.

More About This Tutor...

Most of my adult life has been spent in the arena of teaching and mentoring. My undergraduate degree, a B.S. in Biology, was largely a platform for the many other courses taken in order to teach mathematics and sciences more effectively. Even after I had moved professionally from teaching to military chaplaincy, much of my focus has been on mentoring others. My range of personal experience is wide, having taught or tutored the range from basic mathematics to differential equations, earth science to physics, with Latin and Greek tossed in for good measure.
I have a teaching style which refer to as "narrative." All memorable education takes place in the context of its history and personal usefulness. Therefore, I show the student how a topic has affected people in the past and pull it into personal relevance. Discussion is crucial, not only for allowing the student to ask questions, ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am very dedicated to the science fields, and I have a strong knowledge of chemistry and biology. My GPA was 3.4, and I did very well in organic chemistry, biochemistry and biology. Although I have not professionally tutored, I spent several hours a week throughout my college years helping other students and forming study groups for tests and exams. I have natural people skills, so I feel I can relate to almost anyone and help them to learn.
I have a strong passion for learning which has developed into a desire to teach all I have learned. I know that everyone learns differently, and I believe I can succeed in helping anyone obtain knowledge in the areas of chemistry and biology. I am very devoted and put 100% into everything I do.

I believe in a very structured way of teaching and staying on task but also allow flexibility for personality. I really want children to learn. I believe in telling stories and giving examples on why education is so important, if I feel the child is not self-motivated. I usually am able to get a good conversation going with a child when I ask their opinion about education in general.
I am a mother of a 17 and 13 yr old. Very high achievers and have assisted them through all their subjects. I have a bachelor degree in Agricultural Economics and a Masters in Business Administration. I have great spelling and writing skills but I enjoy the subject of Math the most. This would be my first position as a tutor.

I believe that each student will succeed. You have to presume comepetence and have high expectations. Students learn at different paces and achieve goals at different times. Everyone needs to be given an opportunity to excel. I practice a caring, patient approach to teaching. Students need to feel good about themselves and their effort. Gains are made through different techniques. It is my job to evaluate the students need and help them achieve their highest goals.

I tutored with A+ Advanced Learning Center last year for a full year. I tutored 1st grade reading, 3rd grade reading comprehension and 6th grade reading comprehension. I went to Florida State University for three years, have an EMS-Paramedic degree from Florida Career Institute. I graduated from high school with a 4.2 GPA.
Working on an ambulance I have seen many different types of people at their worst. Because of this, I am very patient and compassionate and have been told that I have a very unique way of looking at problems. I am a very hands-on tutor and believe that learning should be fun, not work.
