Entrance Exams Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Zellwood, FL

Exams all come down to prep and organization! I have always approached a teaching lesson as a learning opportunity. Learning is a fundamental skill. If you don't have your basic fundamentals, your student will have difficulty advancing. So, I always start with basic fundamentals such as; note taking, study skills, and comprehension! All sciences demand the ability to link concepts together. Ex. cells make up tissues, tissues make up organs, organs make up organ systems,etc.....! By understanding the make-up of cellular structures and relating that to tissue functions the students can fully understand a subject. This proves true with all subjects. By impowering the student with good base fundamentals, my students find it easier to link concepts together. I obtained a B.S. in Biology, with a concentration in aquatic science, from Wittenberg University in 2006. During my undergraduate

Most kids and young adults have the ability to complete the necessary level of work. They just need that extra amount of help to bring out the skills they already possess. I have found in working with young people that confidance is crucial. I am a good communicator with kids and try to instill that they can achieve their academic goals through patience, practice, and an open mind to success. I have done volunteer work with kids (all levels) who needed help catching up to the level of their peers as well as working with adults to improve their reading. I have also coached basketball for middle school boys for several years. Reading, writing, history, social studies, and science are my areas of expertise. Test preparation is another area I can really help in. My eleven years in high end medical sales have given me the ability to mesh with all different kinds of personalities and working

I have had the pleasure of teaching ESL/EFL to adults and children in four countries over several years. During my travels, I have earned a MS in TESOL and am conferring my Ed.S degree in Reading Education. I have used this knowledge by working with children K-12 grades in math, social studies, ESOL, reading and study skills.

My teaching philosophy and style are very simple. I believe that all can learn and all can succeed with the proper guidance and simple direct instruction.

As a graduate in the world of technology, I believe education never ends. Things change constantly therefore we must continue to educate ourselves. In addition, I have volunteered with high school juniors and seniors to help them through courses such as math, science, computers, and English in their preparation for college. While in college, I also tutored classmates in statistics, algebra, and technology courses. Beyond that, I have learned valuable lessons about teaching others in the various management positions that I have held throughout my career. Throughout my experience tutoring students, I have learned that everyone has a unique learning style. No single rule applies to teaching someone. I spend time figuring out how a student learns and then adjust my style to their needs. After tutoring students for the past two years, I have learned that many kids have the ability to excel in

As a mathematics graduate, I have strived to teach and tutor mathematics in such a way that everyone could have a general understanding of it. I have earned a BA in mathematics, which has given me the opportunity to gain an understanding of how to make math an enjoyable subject. Many people that I have spoken to do not like math. I have made it a goal of mine to change that mindset and to provide a different insight to studying math. During the last 10 years I have been able to share my knowledge with others while enlightening others to study math full time. My teaching style is quite universal in such that I believe in hands-on learning. I love teaching and working with all types of students. I am very patient, polite, and understanding of the needs of students who are trying to understand math. My goal is to provide a service where my teaching style will help them discover a mat

I have over 20 years experience teaching mathematics at the community college and university levels. I have also worked as a tutor at the Mathematics Laboratory and the Academic Success Center for Okaloosa-Walton Community College. I have worked as a private tutor on numerous occasions in the past. Most recently, I worked as a tutor for a private school in the Dominican Republic where I tutored eleventh graders in pre-Calculus. 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

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 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.

The best way for a person to learn depends on the person, of course. It is well known that people have different leaning styles that work best for them. The best approach for a tutor is to learn which learning style fits the student best. Everything can take into account, for example lighting of the room or even background noise. All students regardless of age should be able to succeed and its a privilege to help students that want to reach their top potential As a graduate, I understand the struggles each individual student may endure throughout their course work. Throughout my years as a student I have worked diligently and now applying to master's and PhD programs for neurological psychology. During the last 5 year, in high school and throughout college I have tutored others that needed help in psychology, algebra, statistics, geometry, and microbiology.

I strongly believe in the ability of all students to suceed. I work on not just mastery of the materials, but a fundamental change in the students attitude towards education and their ability and desire to learn. If the desire to learn is instilled in students, they will work harder and be more sucessful. I attended the Massachussetts Institute of Technology and majored in Political Science but switched to Chemical Engineering my junior year. I have taken many semesters of calculus, physics and chemistry, as well as humanities courses and the political science courses for my major.
