A Little Bit About Me...

Every student has strengths and weaknesses, and these should be determined for efficient tutoring. I believe in helping the student to learn and making sure they have the knowledge and help to understand the material themselves.
I have eight years of tutoring experience for students ranging from second grade to high school seniors. This tutoring has been in a variety of topics, from elementary phonics to high school geometry to handwriting. I have also had experience in tutoring for standardized tests such as the SAT, ACT, and FCAT.

A Little Bit About Me...

Although I have never tutored professionally, I have had extensive experience tutoring friends and family in need. I am experienced in tutoring young children as well as classroom peers at my level. I have two bachelor degrees from UCF, Bio-medical Science and Psychology, and I feel confident in my ability to help anyone learn. I'm looking to earn extra money while completing my Master's degree at UCF.

A Little Bit About Me...

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.
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.

I achieved a master's degree in communicative disorders to become a speech language pathologist. During my educational career, I have had the opportunity to conduct therapy with children with varying needs, including problem solving, pragmatics, memory, expressive language and appropriate question responses. I obtained extensive grammatical skills due to writing research papers and language analysis that is used in diagnosis of speech related disorders. I have also taught at the middle school level for phonetical transcription and ASL. I have tutored students in reading, english, math, and science.
My experience as a graduate teaching associate and middle school elective teacher has given me the opportunity to touch the lives of many children and adults. I believe that anyone can achieve their goals when supported along the way. Being a visual learner myself, I firmly believe ... read more

I like the Socratic methodology - asking lots of probing questions that help students eventually come to "see" the correct answer for themselves. I also use humor and current references to keep my teaching relevant and interesting to my students.
My professional career has been in the field of private club management. I currently serve as a Principal & Senior Partner in Master Club Advisors. As part of my duties, I have given professional development programs, leadership orientations and strategic planning sessions to individual private club leaders, students, and international club managers associations on six continents. I am the only person to have twice been named the club industry “Educator of the Year”. I have published two books, with my third due out later this year.

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 methodologies.
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 ... read more

More About This Tutor...

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.
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.

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 school, and I enjoy helping them acquire the drive to learn.
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 ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have always had a passion to teach. I feel that when the students see that you're genuinely looking out for their best interest, they are willing to open up their minds to education. I try to show the children that you can succeed, regardless of your socio-economic status or race.
As an overachiever, I was very much driven to become an attorney. I received my bachelors in three years in psychology with a minor in law and society, which enabled me to attain law school, where i excelled as a student. I was blessed with the persistence and great study skills needed to pass the Florida Bar Exam which i did on my first try.

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

Teaching is one of the greatest gifts to give a child at any age. I have been given a great opportunity to teach many children a different grade levels. I believe given children the necessary tools to self discovery. This gives the child confidence knowing he or she accomplished this on their own. My job is be the road map to direct the best path to their destination. I believe in structure, but at the same time allowing the child to figure out how he or she learns. Lastly, I believe in structuring my own teaching to the students individual learning style.

A Little Bit About Me...

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.
