American History Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Winter Beach, FL

As a life long learner, I have committed myself to the field of Education. Teaching is my passion and it empowers me to share my education, training and experiences with students. In addition to my Bachelor of Arts in History and Graduate level classes in Education, I am a graduate of the Educator Preparation Institute at Indian River State College.I have had extensive training in reading, curriculum development, psychology and technology. Over the past four years I have also worked as a Title I tutor teaching Reading and Math to elementary school children. Each and every student is capable of success, no exceptions.No two students are alike; therefore, they do not learn the same way. Consequently, it is up to the teacher to explore what works best with each child in order to lead them on their path of academic success. I am passionate about teaching and I believe in learning through doi

I believe in the constructionist theory of education, children come with some knowledge of the world and need that to be the basis of anything new they learn. Build on the ideas they already have and make learning fun. I have lead several study groups with varying success. Students need to discover that the education they seek is well within their grasp. I have tutor students of various ages and learning levels, no one is unteachable and every student has the potential to grasp any concept. Students need the proper motivation and learning to be fun and engaging. When abstract concepts are related to real world subject matter students grasp the ideas with more success. It is my goal to help your learner find uses for everything they feel that they learn in school without purpose.

I believe that all subjects, especially math and the sciences are based on a core of basic fundamentals. I believe that until the fundamentals are understood that it is not possible to advance to the higher aspects of any subject. I enjoy teaching very much and believe that I have much to give back to young students. I am convinced that a good education is vital to becoming a constructive and well rounded adult citizen. I have a Bachelors Degree in Electrical Engineering, and as such I am certified to teach all sciences and math at all grade levels in the State of Florida. My specialties in math are Algebra and Trigonmetry; my specialty in science is Physics. I was a substitute teacher from 4/08 through 5/09 in the Indian River School District.

I love to interact with somebody who is curious and interested in the subject, no matter what the subject. In mathematics, I believe in a very thorough and conceptual understanding of the subject, which enhances one's ability to use the knowledge in real-world settings, not just memorization of formulae and equations. Understanding, rather than memorization, is also crucial for the student who will continue to learn more advanced subjects in mathematics. At my undergraduate program, my professor for a course in Symbolic Logic asked to refer students in the class to me, if they had questions about the material. After the class had finished, the professor hired me through the university's Philosophy Department as a tutor for the same class. After graduation, I acted as a private tutor in my spare time. At Columbia University I was a Teaching Assistant for three college courses, giving

I have been a full-time certified Florida mediator in family and circuit civil cases since 1988. I meet with people who are divorcing or otherwise suing each other and persuade them, if I can, to settle their differences. Since the collapse of the housing market in Florida, and the elimination of home equity from which people financed mediation, the business has contracted substantially. While being a mediator for 22 years, it was my responsibility to tutor and mentor for people trying to become mediators. I spent several hours a month through my career doing such work. My writing background as a lawyer gives me an excellent basis to use with high school students working on their writing and research skills. I enjoy teaching and working with teenagers. My work as a mediator was essentially a teaching process about the nature of mediation and what it could provide to people in litig

I believe that the best way to learn is to learn by doing. I enjoy working with children and adults, and I am very patient, relaxed, respectful, and compassionate. One of the best things that an educator can do for a student is to empower the student, let the student know that they are capable of learning, succeeding, and flourishing, and that is my goal as an educator. While in high school I tutored two other high school students in math, and an elementary school student in math and English, and also provided help in social studies and science. In College I volunteered with Big Brothers Big Sisters for a number of months. My mother is a pre-k special ed teacher, I volunteer in class usually once a week to help with the occupational therapy motor lab. My triple major in anthropology, history, and religion required many papers to be written, so I have a strong sense of how to use the

I have been teaching in the homeschool community for about 10 years. I have learn many skills on how to handle different classroom situations. I tautht cross county, physical education, critical thinking skills, sewing, and all the other core courses. I volunteered in a local private school to assist when they would need me. As of this October I started teaching at a local tutoring center. Currently, I am teaching on a "on call basis" at a local college. My philiosphy is to motivate through praise. I believe in speaking words of encouragement to the students. I have seen positive words manifest into good results for the students. I do believe in teaching because as a mother this is one of the skills I know I had to dominate in order assist my own child to become a better citizen. I realize that what one deposits in this young generation we will reap as senior citizens. Therefore
