Marine Biology Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Winter Springs, FL

Was a Marine Biology minor in college. I also worked for over a year and half as a Marine Mammal Biologist. I obtained a B.S. in Biology, with a concentration in aquatic science, from Wittenberg University in 2006. During my undergraduate studies, I tutored elementary students in math and science twice a week for two years. After college, I moved into the marine science profession. In August of 2008, I started teaching High School Biology I, Earth and Space Science, and Physical Science to students in Polk County. In addition, after school hours were spent with two students taking AP Biology classes. Both students achieved a 4 or higher on their placement exams. My tutored students reported an increase in their ability to record class notes, study, and take tests. My previous tutoring experiences have included subjects such as; elementary science, elementary math, Algebra (I &

During my year as an AmeriCorps VISTA at the Earth Ethics Institute, a non-profit organization at Miami Dade College, I was responsible for the successful execution of five high-profile programs. I strengthened my ability to multitask and was able to effectively implement each program’s components at their full potential and capabilities. I became accustomed to working independently under strict deadlines and overseeing many service-learning college students who assisted with events. As many of these service-learners regarded me as a role-model, I committed myself to bringing out their full potentials while mentoring them through their college experiences. I was considered the unofficial technological assistant of my workplace due to my proficiency at Microsoft Office and my ability to work at an exceedingly fast pace. In addition to this, my co-workers often request that I overview

I have spent the past few years working in various marine fields including in aquaculture facilities. My understanding of biology and mathematics are high and I am currently attending a UCF feed school working to attain my B.A. in Marine Biology. I have been working towards this field for over 3 years and have attended institutions in California as well as Colorado. For tutor requests I can be reached at joseph.packwood@gmail.com

I have been tutoring for over 15 years both in students homes or at public locations such as coffee shops or the public library. My education and experience are broad. I was educated at "Ivy League" level schools and purposefully educated myself in a large variety of the humanities, which in essence all tie together. Basic courses up through most High School material outside of the Humanities are not difficult. Actually, while my education has been primarily in the Humanities, the material I see the most in tutoring is Algebra and Geometry! I have a way of perceiving the difficulty the student has, and am able to explain the material in a simple way that makes it easy for students to grasp. I have a good rapport with my student and have had several that have told me that I am the best teacher they have ever had(which didn't hurt my ego!!) I also have a good sense of humor which puts

I am an Elementary Education Major at the University of Florida and have helped many students succeed in all subject areas, with a strong focus on Elementary Education. Some subjects that I particularly tutor in include: math, science, english, social studies, and language arts. I also supply a student with supplemental material I feel will help them learn better and at their own, individual pace. For instance, I believe that some students may learn better through visual exercises, and them others may learn through auditory (hearing) exercises. Either way, I try to figure out what a students learning style is and work on that with a student.

I graduated from Nova Southeastern University; I earned a B.S. in Psychology, I have tutored in many subject areas math, physics, chemistry, social studies, writing, communication, and computer skills. In addition, I have learned a deep understanding of the mind and how different each person learns. I am a C.B.A. (Certified Behavior Analysis) I have volunteered teaching children at school, the classroom, the lunch room, the play ground. I am a mother of 4 children, they are honor roll students; I was a horseback riding instructor for 6 years; I have coached cheer for the last 6 years and softball for 13 years. I can determine how to find what motivates a person and implement that motivator in their learning. I love children; teaching children is a way of life for me. I am honored and privileged to be a part of the learning and growing process of your child. Together we will set ach

I graduated from UCF in 2006 with a B.S. in Civil Engineering, and I've been working as an engineer and project manager in the field ever since. My job requires several certifications that I've had to complete and pass, which is to say math and science are two subjects I use on a daily basis! Math and science are subjects I excelled at while in school and I do have some previous tutoring experience among family friends (the students I tutored were in middle school and high school). I was involved with a youth program for most of my time in college, so I am able to relate easily to a variety of ages and work with them in such a way that they feel comfortable and confident. My teaching style is relaxed but still organized, and I do a good job of communicating with students no matter their learning style.

I have a lot of experience tutoring friends and classmates throughout my college career. There are a couple students I have worked with for a couple of years, who are people I met through school and work. I mainly tutored in English Composition and English Literature, as it is my main area of study and I'm very experienced in it. I'm back at UCF now as an English Major and am taking classes in Communication Disorders because I eventually would like to work in Special Education. I have a lot of patience and a great understanding of how to help people learn. I find it a lot easier to teach something you're passionate about. I have helped tutor people before in subjects outside my major, but couldn't give much insight. In those instances I just helped develop better organization and study skills. I also have experience working with special needs children and teenagers.

From my own experiences as a student I have come to the opinion that the most valuable educational accomplishment one can achieve is to “learn how to learn”. This seems to be a state of mind, an epiphany if you will, which hopefully will be realized at some point in the course of an individual’s intellectual development. Such a state of mind is not usually due to the efforts of a particular instructor, nor is it the result of having taken a certain class. Rather it represents an ideal culmination of the educational process. Maybe, some would say it is the moment when the Scholar is born. Perhaps it is the moment when the true Student emerges. As instructors we may never know if we have ever contributed to such a moment of realization in a person’s life, but it is nice to think we can and it is nice to try, and over all that’s my philosophy of teaching. On a more specific level I have fo

Throughout my years of tutoring I have found that there are many different ways that people learn. Once you figure this out learning is easy and enjoyable. I first go over what my students have been doing to learn and study the material. Once we have established their individual learning style, we go over what they can do to improve in that subject and perhaps with the overall learning of any material. I want my students to feel comfortable with the material, to understand it on many levels, not just to memorize the information. I strive to annihilate the fear students’ feel of any subject they know little about or have problems understanding. I want to make a difference in how people learn and how they feel about learning difficult or different materials. While earning my degree in physics at the University of Central Florida I found that tutoring was an excellent experience for both my

I am patient, relentless, very mellow, and extremely nice. I will make certain the subject is understood whatever it takes. I am imaginative which allows me to develop very and many different ways of explaining things. I know that anybody can understand something if they get the right help. During my senior year of high school, I took four advanced placement classes to prepare for college. I was always the one who would help other students in my classes even into college. I graduated college and worked for four years. This helped me learn more about report writing and even helping people understand things that were out of their element. I enjoy helping people and sharing my understanding of learning.

I have taught people of all ages, including children, students (elementary, high school and college), and the public through my early jobs as a swimming instructor, and my work as a teaching assistant and educational instructor. As a result, I have learned to target my lesson plans for specific audiences and to recognize the wide range of backgrounds and knowledge encountered in both formal and informal educational settings. I have taught classes involving lecture and laboratory instruction complemented by experiments in the field. I designed the syllabus, ordered supplies, set-up and broke-down lab equipment, supervised teaching assistants, and ensured that appropriate risk management policies were implemented and followed. I have also mentored several undergraduate research internships. While my teaching experience is diverse, it is by no means comprehensive, and I welcome the opp

During my time at University of Florida, I tutored at the student academic support center for many subjects including physics I and II, inorganic chem I and II, organic chem I and II, biology I and II, and Calculus I. I helped students there for a year and a half. I make sure that students completely understand the subject instead of just memorizing it. I do this by explaining the subject in multiple ways and focusing on the method that the student seems to understand the best. I take the responsibility of teaching very personally and make it my goal to make sure they are learning, understanding, and advancing.
