Law Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Zolfo Springs, FL

Member of the Florida Bar (2006-present); Member of Florida Law Review; Juris Doctor from the University of Florida (2006); Have represented hundreds of clients in state and federal court. I bring a friendly and patient approach to tutoring. I know hiring a tutor can be a challenging process and a tough decision to make. Accordingly, I promise to make the lessons as enjoyable as possible, while ensuring you (or your child) truly understand the material. I owe it to my students to make the material fun and interesting. I have over 5000 hours (nearly 10 years) of tutoring experience, including the SAT, ACT, GRE, GMAT, LSAT and other selected subjects. I have been helping high school and college students get accepted to undergraduate and graduate programs all over the United States, including UF, Michigan, Stanford, FSU, UCF, and many others. My first teaching experience was with the

I am certified to teach both math and reading in Florida. I am particularly strong in helping students to understand the basics. I became a teacher because I feel that I can make a positive difference in my students' lives while providing them quality instruction from a teacher who truly cares. My last teaching assignments were in preparing high risk students to pass the FCAT and the GED. My students exhibited a ninety-seven percent pass rate on both tests upon passing my class. Students should be taught as individuals based on their particular learning styles. People learn at their own rate. My philosophy is that all students can be successful if taught by a caring qualified teacher in a positive learning environment. I thoroughly enjoy the challenges of teaching. My reward comes when my students are successful in learning and develop positive self-esteems towards learning.

I love helping students succeed. I believe all students are capable of academic success. However, I have come to learn that learning styles differ greatly and to be an effective tutor it is imperative to analyze the student and find the most effective tutoring style that suits his or her learning style. My goal is to improve results through patience, hard-work, and confidence building. I believe a good educator can make a world of difference in any child's education. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives. As a graduate of Indiana University, I was driven to academic success as a Dean's List student in attaining a degree in Business Management. During my time at Indiana I tutored students in English, Social Studies, Math, and History. The students ranged from elementary to college level and my retention for these students from year to year was nearly 100%. Now that I

I have experience teaching all levels of students from grade school to the college level. I earned my Bachelors Degree in Management Information Systems from the University of South Florida but found I was more interested in teaching. Since graduation I have been looking for new opportunities to teach students of all levels. I excel in tutoring students in writing research papers, English, History and the sciences. I am a very patient and easy going instructor. I believe that teaching should be done in a calm and supportive environment. My teaching style allows the students to discover their own hidden abilities. I help foster a curious mind and encourage each student to excel in life. A good education can make a huge difference in the life of a child and I help children realize that.

Not all people learn in the same manner. It's important to recognize clues that identify preferred learning styles and incorporate lesson plans accordingly. I believe in breaking things into its simplest form using analogies to help with learning and retention. I believe it is not only important to teach the curriculum, but to also relate the benefits of learning into (age appropriate) real-life lessons. For example, it is important for a high school student to know what to expect on their first job and how to make the transition from high school to college. Knowledge is powerful and is one of the greatest gifts we can share. I want to make a difference in the lives of children and young people.

There are so many different teaching styles and learning styles. As a tutor the teaching style is going to be dependent on the student's learning style. Not everyone can teach. As a Dean, I had to interview many potential instructors. I believe that a teacher needs to be caring, compassionate and encourage students at all times. I have these qualities and my students can vouch for that. I have been a teacher/professor and Dean of a University for 15 years. I got my BS in Life Sciences and one year of MS in Molecular Genetics. I continued on to get my MBA. I have taught English, Math, Anatomy and Physiology, Medical Terminology, Business courses and other science courses.

I try to provide a dynamic learning environment that stimulates the students on multiple levels. I try to make learning fun as well as useful. I also try to develop in each student the attitude that learning is a continual process and means more than just memorizing whatever facts are necessary for the next test or quiz. "The more you know, the more you grow!" I derive great personal enjoyment from seeing my students succeed. I am driven by a desire to help others and make a difference. I always had a knack for teaching and have always been an academic. I am currently a teacher at Wharton High School in Hillsborough County. I am certified in English and social studies. Prior to becoming a full-time teacher, I worked as an independent legal and real estate consultant for the telecommunications industry.

Communication and expectations are the top priorities in my repertoire of teaching strategies. I am able to communicate a sense of self-esteem in my students tempered with humor. They know I value them as human beings. In my experience young people are willing to live up to the expectations a good teacher demands. I use a direct, no nonsense approach and have found it extremely successful in all teaching environments. After having lived in Germany, teaching ESL in a middle school, I returned to the United States to teach in the Irving Independent School District in Irving, Texas. During that time I taught German, French and Spanish to middle and high school students. Subsequently, I was offered a teaching position for the Department of Dependent Schools, which is managed by the Department of Defense Education Activity.
