More About This Tutor...

I have worked as an elementary math and reading tutor under the Supplemental Educational Services for the University of West Florida, and I am currently working as a tutor for Advanced Learners. In the fall of 2012, I will graduate from the University of West Florida with my Bachelor's Degree in ESE Elementary Education with a minor degree in ESOL.
Providing a calm and productive learning environment is my goal for each every student. By holding high expectations for learning, I strive to build confident critical thinkers. Through teacher-student interactions, it is important to guide and direct students by asking questions, exploring options, suggesting alternatives, and encouraging them to develop criteria to make informed choices. Overall, my goal is to help children to have the ability to grow as independent, diligent students who are able to take initiative and responsibility ... read more

Though I graduated with a BS in Secondary English Education, I have tutored and worked with students from elementary to secondary levels. From 2003-2008 I taught English and a little Spanish in both public and private schools, endeavoring to give my fullest and best to teaching all students who came across my path. Teaching in a U.S. public school and at a private institution overseas introduced me to a variety of students from different backgrounds, learning styles, and study habits. I have tutored and given instruction in all areas of English, grammar, literature, writing, English as a second language, and Spanish. Though not currently teaching, I hope to continue helping students achieve their goals and dreams.
Variety is good! I enjoy working with students of all backgrounds, personalities, and academic levels. I have come to realize that we learn differently. What works w ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I finished my BA with concentrations in management and accounting at Troy University in 2007,then worked for three years in an Accounting Office. I left there in January 2010 to pursue my Masters in Accounting. I gained valuable experience in reading, writing and the application of mathematical formulas through working in a fast paced accounting office. I supervised one to three employees, trained them and audited their work. I have never officially tutored a student, but I have trained employees on accounting principals and how to write to the IRS and clients, as well as helping out friends and fellow students. I would like to tutor in reading, writing, history, business, and math.
Teaching is so rewarding, there's nothing better than helping someone understand something they have struggled with in the past. I am a very patient person who loves to work with people. I also enj ... read more

I love teaching and learning new things and believe it should be a fun experience. I have an 8 year old daughter and a mother currently taking college courses so I have learned a great deal of patience over the years and developed a relaxed, happy personality.
In 2005 I graduated from the University of West Florida, earning a BA in psychology with a 3.5 GPA. During that time I was vice president of an on-campus meditation group that lead people in meditation and relaxation techniques. I have assisted many people with tutoring for various types of academic and placement tests, e.g, ASVAB, ACT and SAT, as well as college placement tests for english and math. I have excellent proof-reading/grammar/writing skills and an understanding of APA and MLA formatting. I have experience working at a military base college branch as an advisor/field representative and have gained experience ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I became a published author of game reviews for a computer magazine at age 15. I worked at the University of Pennsylvania in Chemical Engineering under an Army Research Office grant, then as a software developer for the Mechical/Materials Engineering Dept.

A Little Bit About Me...

I try to keep the material fresh and I avoid boredom and repetition at all costs. One of my best tools to connect with a young person is through humor. If the student feels relaxed they are more likely to absorb the information. I also use reverse psychology to turn the tables so they actually find themselves teaching me the material. This has been a successful tool with children I have mentored as well as my own children.
I began teaching/tutoring while in graduate school. I tutored undergrads in sociology, psychology, and social statistics. I also taught driver's education to high school students while in grad school. After ten years working in law enforcement, I switched to social services and I have been mentoring children in foster care for the past twenty years.

More About This Tutor...

In the past, my classes have lasted up to three hours at a time. Thus, I have been forced to implement new methodologies in order to not only keep my students focused and interested, but continually learning as well. I incorporate fun activities such as creative writing and music into my lessons while still closely following the curriculum. I believe that education can be both entertaining and beneficial, just as I believe that all students are capable of reaching new heights of academic excellence. All it takes is a little bit of patience and creativity on both sides, the teacher and the student, to have an unforgettable experience.
I have two English-related degrees from the University of Miami, Print Journalism and Creative Writing (Poetry Focus). Since graduating in 2005, I have worked as a teacher in South Korea, Miami Beach, FL, and here in the greater Pensacola area. My clas ... read more
