Over the years (as undergrad and graduate), I have tutored middle school and elementary age students in various subjects. I have also been a resource for undergrad and graduate health science students while serving as a graduate assistant (public health master's program). I proctored exams and held tutoring and review sessions prior to testing. I have two master's degrees, three undergraduate degrees, and experience as a paramedic, nurse, and substitute teacher. I believe in completing an individual needs assessment and designing a study approach around that assessment. I believe in constant reinforcement and reassessment. I also believe it is useful to utilize as many and as varied forms of instruction as possible (written, audio-visual, demonstration, etc.) to solidify a concept. Promoting thorough understanding rather than route memory and recognition skills is paramount.

i have a BS degree in Biology and enough credits to have a minor in Chemistry. I am in the process of taking the tests to get a provisional certificate in teaching. I have tutored fellow students while in school. Recently i have tutored elementary school students in math. I try to instill in the students that they can do the work. Students can do the work, the only thing needed is to get them to acknowledge that they can do it. Usually all they need is to have the process re-explained to them and if needed, have the process explained in a different method.

Encouraging youth and children to reach for their full potential is my life passion. I am a profoundly patient individual with a gift of encouragement. I possess a fervent belief in each person's extreme worth. My belief drives me to draw out the abilities and gifts I recognize in others, especially young people. While I am passionate and enthusiastic, I am also self controlled and gentle in my teaching approach as it is called for. My life mission is to benefit every person I have an opportunity to spend time with. I am a passionate mentor of youth and children in a church setting. For 5 years I have mentored a youth group of 12-25 junior high and high school students. As a Sunday School teacher and Youth leader for ten years, I am experienced with group teaching and specialize in one-on-one tutoring/teaching.

I am a Systems Engineer with a BS in Business and a MS in Computer Science. Systems Engineering involves getting disparate systems, equipment, and/or people to work together to accomplish a goal. It requires broad knowledge of many subjects and the ability to communicate that knowledge, clearly and unambiguously, either orally or in writing, to others. I am a former naval officer with a current TS/SCI clearance. To maintain this clearance I must remain above reproach in all conduct, public and private. I am currently writing a Science Fiction novel for publication. I am a regular public speaker. The method of teaching used will depend on the subject and student. As a general rule, I prefer method of explanation, demonstration, and drill. The person being tutored must have a desire to learn. This can be fostered in children by explaining how they will benefit from learning the mat

Through my extensive coursework and research and practical application in the classroom, I found quite quickly that there are several different learning styles. It is important to create lessons that they are approachable for visual learners, auditory learners, kinesthetic learners and so forth. It is vital to get to know your students from the start and to see how they learn and operate best, hence making instruction to overall fit their needs making them perform better academically. I am responsible, highly organized, and driven. I am patient, as is necessary when teaching elementary students, and I take my work to heart. I greatly care about what I do, as hopefully all educators do. I have seen the great impact that kindness and extra help can have with young students, and I hope to bring these qualities to your company though tutoring.

Throughout college I was a tutor with a Learning Center. I worked with children in grades K-12. At this center, we helped build reading and math skills individually and in groups. I was also a private tutor for a high school student. Together we improved her study skills and organization. I assisted her with writing assignments, projects, and daily homework. I also worked in the Camden County school system as a substitute teacher and secretary. At Mercer University, I earned my BA in Communications and Theater Arts, and an English minor. I also hold certifications through GACE (Georgia Assessments for the Certification of Educators) in Early Childhood Education and Middle Grades Language Arts. The most important element of achieving success in school is self confidence. The way I help build that in children is by being extremely positive, supportive, and full of praise. I observe their

I believe the greatest asset to learning for anyone at any age is learning "how" to learn. I like to use modern techniques and ideas to creatively teach a child or adult a new concept. I am patient and unique. I have a passion for teaching and as such opened a tutoring service that I ran for four years. I hold a Bachelors of General Studies from Valdosta State University and will graduate with my Master of Business Administration in May 2010. I excel at tutoring in English, sociology, psychology, mathematics, science, literature, and social studies.

I taught 8th through 10th grade at a Christian School in Ludowici. I taught every subject, but never a math course higher then Algebra 1. I am a firm believer that the best way to learn varies from subject to subject. When I taught math my view was that the best way to teach was to break everything down into a step by step process and have the students memorize the process. Most other subjects can be learned through repitition, but math requires everything to be broken down.

The reason why I chose the teaching profession is because I want to be able to make a difference in the life of a child. I use many different teaching techniques so that I can meet the needs of individual students. I use visual, verbal, and hands-on teaching strategies. I am very patient and have faith in all of my students to become successful, and reach their fullest potential. As a University of North Florida graduate, I was driven to plant the seeds of learning and touch the lives of students. I have earned a bachelors degree in Elementary Education, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in teaching grades 1-6. I have taught second grade in the public school system for five years. I have a real love for children and feel rewarded as I see growth and development in my students

In my experience as a substitute teacher in the Irving Texas School District I gained a new passion for the struggle that children face everyday. To actually see first hand that no child is left behind was not only challenging but rewarding. During my two years of service I learned that it not only takes a commitment of time beyond measure but also a great responsibility of the heart to continue until you make a difference. My teaching style is one of encouragement and positive reinforcement. I always conveyed the importance of good study habits and how vital it was to their success. I taught them that education is an ongoing process with failure as well as successes, but whatever the outcome, they must always put forth their best effort. My primary purpose in this diverse teaching style was to establish a positive rapport the students and be able to bring out their hidden potential.

I have worked with a wide range of students: from Kindergarten to training adults in the workplace. I worked for UPS for over six years (Operations Management Specialist and Industrial Engineer). I left UPS to focus on my education and enter the field of education. I recently graduated with honors from the University of Illinois with a BA in English. I spent a semester in a K-8 grade school where I worked with Kindergarten-1st grade RtI (Response to Intervention)groups, 4th-5th grade (all subjects), and 6th-8th grade Language Arts/English. My Statement of Eligibility from the state of Florida allows me the opportunity to teach in the following areas: K-6th, 5th-9th English, and 9th-12th English. I believe that each child has the ability to succeed as long as they are given encouragement and the opportunity. It is my goal to give each child my personal best and to provide an environ

Teaching, in general, has always been a passion of mine. I received my BA in Elementary Education in May of 2007. My internship experience was teaching Language Arts in a middle school in Chicago, IL. Upon moving to Fernandina Beach, I became a teacher for Catapult Learning in Jacksonville. During this time, I provided supplemental Reading/Math instruction to students in the first through sixth grades whose test scores were below grade level. I have also provided a six week tutoring service for the FCAT at Yulee Elementary. With my experience in teaching, I have realized that students are like snowflakes- all unique and they learn in different ways. I always pay attention to the different ways they learn and incorporate that into my lesson plans. As a tutor, I will discover the way your child learns to satisfy their academic needs. I am a firm believer that teaching is a career choice th

I have experience in working with children and young people in my missions and humanitarian work. I have lead teams of teenagers and worked with children in local schools, orphanages, and community organizations. I also worked at a daycare during my internship in 2004. Everyone is special and unique in how they learn and incorporate new information. I like to get to know people to understand how they can learn on their skill level. Patience and understanding is key when working with students and young people because everyone is different and special.
