My comments on tutoring Drawing : As an artist, I am able to work with students on the technical skills and methods of drawing or their overall approach. I have taken many drawing classes and would be delighted to share what I have learned with others!

I am a big proponent of the theory of multiple intelligences and believe that each student has certain styles of learning that work best for them. I aim to help students figure out how they learn best. Once they realize where their strengths are, they can incorporate the concept into all of their studies, not just the subject for which I happen to be tutoring them.
I have tutored a wide variety students on many subjects. I am most experienced tutoring high school students for the SAT. I worked with Let's Get Ready, a non-profit organization dedicated to preparing high school students for the SAT and their college search process. I typically tutored students for the Math section, but I am capable of tutoring for the Critical Reading and Writing sections as well. Some of my other tutoring experiences have been with middle and high school students. I have tutored several students in ... read more

I have worked in both General Education and ESE education. I speak spanish fluently and french, semifluently. I also have some background in American Sign Language. I have also worked with the emotionally disturbed child.
I use whatever works best for the child and can hold their attention span. It depends largely on the child's age, interests, and whether or not there are any learning, or any other disabilities. All children are capable of learning and enjoying to learn. I believe all children, whether normal developing or special needs deserves the same experiences, just delivered in different ways.

I am a very patient, dedicated, and energetic person. I like to incorporate riddles, rhymes, and games into my tutoring sessions to aid kids in learning. It is my belief that all kids can learn. As a child I was told I would never surpass an elementary school because I was failing to thrive. There were so many people who believed in me and as a result I incorporate the same mindset they had with me to contribute to the successes of children who are much like I was.
I worked at the Boys and Girls Club of Alachua County for 8 years where I was responsible for tutoring, mentoring, and facilitating a gang prevention class. After, I was employed at Boys Hope Girls Hope, a residential scholarship program for academically capable students. I did this position for approximately 2 years before entering into grad school this past May. With this position I was a live-in counselor responsible ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

After earning a Bachelor’s degree in a Social Science from the University of Florida, I feel that I have gained a well rounded education in all areas including English, mathematics, biology and natural sciences.I am currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Public Health because I love to learn. I have been working with children ages 3-14 since I was 15 years old. I spent my summers working as a summer camp counselor. In college I worked for an organization called America Reads and tutored approximately 10 elementary students in reading. Together we read books at their specific reading levels and played games to that allowed them to build better reading and writing skills.
After working with children for several years, I believe that every child can learn and do great as long as they are shown patience, compassion, and are rewarded for their good work and improvement. I think th ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I tutored children from the neighborhood so often, I decided to get paid for it. I received my Bachelor degree in Anthropology and my "lifetime" teaching credential (any self contained) from California. When I retired, I discovered I still wanted to teach. I was in Salt LakeCity, UT and taught Kindergarten for 6 years. Upon hearing that Florida needed teachers, I sold out and moved to Florida in time to find a glutted field. I still know that I will only be happy if I am doing what I do best: teaching the youth of today for the challenges of tomorrow. I am continuously educating myself and hope to spend the rest of my life in school.
I like to learn where the student is (not the age/grade, etc) and build from there. Success for the student is very important because without confidence, we are all lost. I like to be organized with certain levels to be attained. Achieving th ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have taught preschool education 2-4 years old. While I have not worked with school age students I have taken several college courses on elementary education and volunteered in several different grade school classes. Along with these experiences I have a bachelors degree in Human development which would help me understand the level of comprehension and ways to communicate concrete and complex ideas to children.
I believe that tutoring is a great way to assist teachers. The reason I say this is because teachers often have many children in their classes and as a tutor I would be able to work one on one with a child who might need a little extra attention. I also thing that when children are given a chance to grasp difficult ideas they gain self confidence and become encouraged to persevere. I also believe that children can learn to love learning, and a child who is given the chance ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love seeing people understand something once I explain it to them in a way that they can understand it. I also love working with kids and teenagers because I believe that if we have a positive influence on young people they will grow up to be the leaders that our nation needs. My teaching style is geared at making people think. Students don't learn when they are spoon fed their education but when they are lead in the correct direction.
I am currently enrolled in the graduate engineering program at the University of Florida, in which I plan to graduate in the spring of 2012. I enjoy working with people and I have a strong background in numerical analysis. I have taken the GRE, ACT, and the SAT. Scores were high above the national average for math and at about the average for the written portion. I do have experience in writing research papers and laboratory reports, all in the fie ... read more

I use humor to bring the subject matter to life, and I help the student come to her/his own understanding through discussion of the course material, encouraging her/him to take an active role in learning. I am accustomed to working with students who believe that history is boring and/or challenging. I focus on major themes and relate the material to students' lives, rather than stressing rote memorization of dates and facts (although comprehension of reading material is important). In short, I leave students with a love for history, and I help students develop their writing and analytical skills.
I have taught as a Teaching Associate at the University of Florida since 2006, when I was admitted to candidacy. Before that I taught as a Teaching Assistant at U.F. I met one-on-one with students throughout this experience to advise or tutor them when extra help was needed. I also taug ... read more

I graudated from Oberlin College in 2005. My coursework included not only music instruction classes, but also general education courses. During my time at Oberlin I worked as an ESL tutor. After graduation I moved to the country of Ecuador to serve as a music and English teacher. After returning to the U.S. I was employed as a substitute teacher in Florida. I substituted in all education levels. In the fall of 2006 I will enter the University of Florida's Levin College of Law. I'm also the oldest of ten children, six of whom are adopted and have special needs. This personal experience has given me great insight into the lives of children with disabilities.
Children are complex beings and I find teaching to be extremely challenging. I always strive to find the best means possible for maximizing the potential of each learner. Every student is different and so I strive to a ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching one on one because I believe that is the most effective way to teach one person. By teaching one on one, you can focus on the student's personal weaknesses and strengths in the subject and mold your lessons to their benefit. My teaching style involves showing lots of examples and visuals along with practice problems or questions. Mistakes and visuals are usually what causes something to stick to your head. As a teacher, I am very patient, friendly, and inviting. I have often learned that intimidation is what causes students to refrain from asking questions so I try to keep the relationship as friendly and comfortable as possible.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style would be best described as creative and improvisational. Because I work with students from such varied backgrounds, I believe that the best method is one that allows for flexibility and at the same time incorporates lessons from several fields at once. For example, in both my GED and ESOL courses I incorporate music into my lesson plans. I find that music is an excellent avenue to explore contemporary topics that can then lead to essay topics. At the same time, song lyrics are poetry and can be studied as such.
As a student in the PhD program at the University of Florida, I have been very involved in academic pursuits. However, this personal endeavor reaches beyond my own experience as a student and extends into my professional work as an educator. I have been working in the field of Adult Education for students pursuing their GED diploma as well as Instructing co ... read more
