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

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 & II), Geometry, Pre- Calculus, Anatomy, Physiology, Biology (both College and HS level), HS Chemistry, basic w

I actually don't have much experience as a tutor beyond helping classmates study, however throughout my experience in high school I've experimented with and adopted many avant-garde and unorthodox studying techniques and thought processes that have served gratuitously to my benefit, and I'm positive will serve yours as well. I'm currently a senior attending Winter Park High School. I have a slew of education and extracurricular related accolades, and have been commended highly for my skills in writing (both creative and professional). My transcript has a long history of Advanced Placement courses and my standardized exam scores are impressive to say the least least (30 ACT, 1800 SAT, multiple AP Exam credits).

I am currently a general music teacher at Samsula Academy, an elementary school in New Smyrna Beach, FL. I teach general music classes to students in grades K-5, as well as chorus and band. I received my Bachelor's degree from Marywood University in Scranton, PA and began my Master's studies at University of Central Florida. I currently aspire to study Irish traditional music in Ireland in the near future, and would continue to offer online tutoring services during those studies. At Samsula Academy, I offer private music lessons. I have mostly taught piano, but I also have taught trumpet, trombone, drums, flute, clarinet, saxophone, and violin. As a part of my undergraduate studies, I took methods courses in all band and orchestra instruments, so I am trained to teach most anything. I also have experience assisting in the elementary classrooms in reading, writing, and math, and preparing

During my undergraduate, I had multiple field studies in middle and high school classes. I also had to tutor elementary students through my college for certain reading classes. During my last semester, I filled a permanent substitute position for 7th grade intensive reading. In the 2022-2023 school year, I taught STEM language arts for 6th, 7th, and 8th grade. My teaching style focuses on modeled and guided discussions so that students can talk through their understanding so I can remediate and reteach to ensure that they are learning and they find confidence in their learning.

I love teaching young students and helping them succeed in their lives through education. I believe a good education is the one sure way any young person can succeed to better their lives and increase their options for good jobs. I also believe that one good teacher with the right passion and patience can help change the life of a willing student. Tutored students for GED exams at Seminole Community College and was a Adjunct instructor for accounting and federal taxation at several colleges in the Orlando area. As a owner of a CPA firm and as a tax manager in a local CPA firm I have always enjoyed teaching and training the young employees in the firm. I believe one on one teaching is the most effective and successful way to teach a subject.

I became a teacher with the goal of not only instructing children but of also making a difference in my students' lives. I am an enthusiastic, creative teacher; I am able to meet my students where they are, understand how they perceive the subject matter, and work with them to enable them to learn. I respect my students' individual learning styles and needs and am patient and understanding of my students' strengths and weaknesses. My goal is to help students become academically successful. Although I began college with the intent of becoming a teacher, I wound up with a B.A. in Business Administration. After many successful years in the business world, I finally returned to my original plan - teaching. I've taught math successfully at both middle and high schools and hold a Florida professional certificate in Mathematics 5-9, Middle Grades Integrated Curriculum, and Physical Educati

I believe in "Yes, You Can!", instead of "No, You Can't." Positive reinforcement and an emphasis upon disciplinary "best practices" can fertilize the seeds of personal and academic growth. In particular, I believe in focusing upon HOW a student learns. For instance, if a student learns visually, I like to tailor learning strategies toward that student's strength. My educational background is stellar. The most important tool that I have acquired during all of those years, however, is NOT memorization, NOT spelling or grammar - it's the ability to THINK. Looking at the "Big Picture" enables me to see beyond the immediate problem, to find long-term, sustainable solutions. This skill extends across disciplines--whether they be English, mathematics, history or Spanish.

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

As a business major at Florida A & M University I never settle for mediocrity. I graduated Summa Cum Laude with a BS in Business Administration, which has allowed me to gain in depth knowledge in math, accounting and economics. During my 7 years of tutoring, I've assisted in mathematics, economics, and accounting. I enjoy teaching people. I believe that each person has strengths and weaknesses when it comes to learning styles. I believe it's best to investigate which way is the best way to learn and exploit that. I believe that everyone can reach their goal as long as they are willing to give maximum effort. I hope to inspire students to give maximum effort.

I believe each child learns in their own way. It is the job of the instructor to facilitate the child's learning. Patience is key and a comfortable pace. I currently hold a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology from Florida A & M University and hold a valid Letter of Eligibility for teacher certification. My teaching experience includes working as an ESE Aide, high school substitute and tutor in Alachua and Orange County. For the past year I have been working with students with disabilities. I am very enthusiastic about working with students in an education setting. My experiences in the classroom and educational background have provided the skills I may use in helping students reach high levels of achievement. I have a great deal of interest in helping students in school activities, testing, learning skills and assisting to make the school a safe learning environment. Furthermor

As a psychologist I understand what it takes to transfer information and get it to "stick" in our central nervous system (brain). After understanding some things about the person I would be tutoring I would then develop a plan to present information to them (in a multimodal manner)that would easily associate with their particular "past environment." The material would be usually presented in a highly visual manner augmented with auditory and some hands-on instruction. I instructed middle school and high school students for over 12 years before I became certified as a school psychologist in 1998. I have subsequently instructed at the college level since 1998 in the areas of psychology and teacher education. I am a tenured Full Professor. I also continue to complete psychological evaluations for our college's students through our Student Disabilities Service Office.

Every student has the ability to learn. This statement is the key for all individuals' academic success. As an educator, it is my responsibility to provide an environment that is culturally diverse and academically challenging to ensure that all students can fulfill all expectations both academic and personal. My focus on educating students goes beyond the curriculum standards. I believe in providing an environment that constantly challenges the students learning, motivating them to strive to the next level, and becoming strong, independent thinkers. As an educator, it starts with me to instill in the students a desire to learn, in order to meet the challenges they will face. Being an educator of Special Education children for the past six years, I have taught various learning levels as well as various learning abilities. I chose to earn my degree in Special Education because of th
