My teaching style is very student-centered and patient. My students say I make math seem easy. I break complicated material into small easy-to-understand pieces.
I have three years of classroom instruction experience and over eight years of tutoring experience. I have helped hundreds of students raise their level of understanding, grades and test scores. I have worked with students from 7 years old to returning students in their 50's! I love teaching science and math.

More About This Tutor...

I was the valedictorian of my graduating high school class and one of the top high school math and science students in the nation, but I was not always a stellar student. For instance, I received a “D” in math in the second grade. I attribute my transformation to an "A" student at least partially to my third grade teacher in whose class my math grades improved dramatically and I jumped from the lowest to the highest reading group. She helped boost my confidence, made me feel like I could actually do better, and made me excited about learning. My tutoring reflects my strong belief that achieving some or all of the latter can positively impact students' long-term learning.
I am just as comfortable tutoring students in math and science as in reading and writing. As a secondary school student, I received a number of top science honors, such as first place honors in several state scienc ... read more

Every student is different, and in turn, learning is never constant, but rather, dynamic. My goal is to implement any teaching style or method that will facilitate in your child’s educational success. Some of my strongest attributes are patience, understanding and being friendly.I try to utilize each students strengths and through encouragement, I try to explore different facets of learning by incorporating charts, drawings, and other visuals to help each student accomplish the learning objective. I do not encourage doing the work for the students, as that defeats the overall purpose, rather I try to assist each student in making connections, that will ultimately help foster their overall confidence, knowledge and educational success.
Having been involved in academics most of my life, I am very familiar with the rigors and challenges facing most students today. I earned two bach ... read more

When I begin tutoring a new student, my first objective is for us to get to know each other. The student will not be able to receive very much from me until he/she is comfortable with me. Once they feel that I care, they open up and the learning really begins! When I really get a feel for the personality and whatever particular challenges are unique for this person in this class, I am able to determine the best way to communicate the subject and improve the skills. I like to think outside the box to find the best way for that student to have that "got it" moment!
Literally all my life I have been asked by students, parents and teachers to help students who were having trouble. I get tremendous fulfillment from watching someone who has been frustrated finally "get it." In addition to teaching music lessons, tutoring all subjects, and homeschooling my own two children, I have worked ... read more

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 ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

In terms of teaching style, I believe that different students require different teaching styles and techniques and I attempt to vary and utilize those based upon the specific needs of the student. As a more specific comment related to the teaching of Accounting/Finance, I believe that modeling Accounting techniques works best with the majority of students and that the adage "practice makes perfect" is particularly applicable in the Accounting arena. I have encountered the term "demonstrator/personal model" within the framework of teaching styles and I believe that is a good description of my style.

Every student has the capability to succeed given that the conditions foster and nourish that success. Providing educational tools to the student in a higher education setting is critical to the independence and empowerment of the student. As an instructor, one must be cognizant of the fact that every teaching experience is an opportunity for professional growth and delivering instruction is a reciprocal process. Instilling in students the expectation of excellence has a pre-requisite that the instructor model by way of organization, preparation, enthusiasm, trust, and content expertise; inherently, upholding an effectual instructional leadership role. Teaching must be conducted with passion in order to awaken learning; perhaps, this is why we’ve moved to a classroom without walls.

As an experienced professional in education, I value it's importance. Learning how to read is an essential skill that should be taught in a personal manner. By being certified in Special Education, I've kept myself abreast with current teaching styles and approaches. It's very rewarding to see how a student blossoms and becomes an active learner! I look forward to continue being an active part of that process!
Having been an educator for over 30 years, I love and enjoy the opportunity to work with students individually. It allows the teacher to customize the setting to be encouraging, positive and workable. The learner is able to adapt well and know that their questions and concerns will be dealt with in a safe and supportive learning envirionment. By being patient, understanding, supportive and encouraging; this will lead to a sense of achievement. Every child has that oppor ... read more

Motivating students to want to learn is a key facet of my success as a teacher. I have found that educating people to understand ‘why’ things are done is essential to having them truly understand the subject matter being taught. In short I teach them how to learn. My approach always includes the “coach approach” so the student knows you honestly want them to win and get a good grade in a particular subject. An essential component of the “student teacher” experience is developing a verbal performance contract in which responsibilities of the student and the teacher are very clear. This way the student learns to “trust” me and wants to learn more from me.

With a degree in Special Education and a Masters in Education I have learned about how children learn best. I have a Florida Teacher's License for teaching ESE (Exceptional Students Education), Spanish, Elementary Education, and other subjects. I taught in the Ocala public school system. I have terrific math skills and have taught all core courses to ESE students. I have helped older students prepare for their GED exam as well. Currently I teach Spanish online.
I believe with the right supports all children can learn. I have tutored students with special needs. My goal is to help the child build on their strengths and believe they can improve on their weaknesses. My teaching style is to set objectives that challenge students and support them by building on what they already know. I am extremely patient and professional and well liked by my students.

My scholarly and practical experience is in Marine Biology and Chemistry. I have experience teaching adults, children, and adolescents in various settings from in a swimming pool, at animal exhibits, to in the classroom. For the past two years I have enjoyed sharing my knowledge of Science and Math with my students and motivating them to explore the various facets of the vast field of Science.
My experience teaching children started in the water. That is a difficult place to start as many children fear the water. I quickly learned that individual students learn in different ways and at different paces. After studying Marine Biology in an academic setting I finally became able to share my passion for science and knowledge for math with students in a way that enabled me to not only share knowledge, but motivate students to become passionate about the subjects I find so interesti ... read more

I show strong abilities in both qualitative and quantitative subjects, and excel in both essay/narrative writing and mathematical analysis.
