Former Collier Co. teacher, experienced tutor - North Naples

My teaching style varies according to the learning styles and strengths of the individual student and the subject matter. I tend to be more structured and organized in my instruction.

Prior to teaching I worked as a one-to-one and general classroom assistant with autistic students. I have 10+ years combined experience in the education field.

My comments on tutoring English ESOL : I have taught English to a 7 year old foreign (Haitian) adopted child who did not know English initially. She had acquired a good vocabulary and had no noticeable foreign accent after several years.

Lead the student to find the right answer himself or herself if possible.
I have done private tutoring of high school students in math from pre-algebra to calculus and in other subjects. I have also home schooled adopted daughters from lower grades to high school level, including teaching English as a second language. In graduate school I was a teaching assistant in an electric machinery laboratory for non-electrical engineering majors. My own experience with standardized tests includes having taken the ACT in 1971 with scores ranging from 22 (76th percentile) in English to 31 (97th percentile) in math with a composite of 27 (93rd percentile) and having passed the GRE in 1975. Other previous experience includes 34 years experience as a communication system engineer. This experience includes satellite communications and other communications for the US military, NASA, FAA, and c ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My name is Barbara M. I was born in Hamburg, Germany and raised in Japan. I have been tutoring for the past six years in Cape Coral, Florida. I grew up in Japan and came to the USA after I met my husband. Having a Japanese mother and German father meant I was surrounded by both languages, becoming fluent in both. I earned my IB in German in high school and took the O-level exam at Oxford University in London. I passed the Japanese-Language Proficiency Test at level N2 and am studying for the N1. Tutoring is my passion. Learning languages can be challenging, but I try to adjust my lesson plan according to my student’s need. Through my years of tutoring I had students telling me how they were so excited that they were able to use what they learned from me. I do set goals for students and try to lead them with positive encouragement. Each student has their own pace of learning Japanese o ... read more

Education is essential for the mind to grow.

On the whole, I look for a rather creative approach when it comes to learning and studying. I ask that students be skeptical in all they hear and read, so asking questions as a form of studying will be essential. Just reading a book or looking at flash cards for studying purposes can prove to be tedious and ineffective. And putting what's learned in context is always necessary if the subject calls for any everyday application.
I have helped people with their English-speaking skills off and on and am very skilled in spelling and grammar. I've been learning Japanese for going on three years, as well. I'm aware that it's not a particularly high in-demand language to learn, but I am more than willing to aid in learning it if it is desired. Also, having graduated high school, I have enough knowledge to teach kids about the basics of science, math, and English.

Certified Teacher

I have been working with kids of all ages for a long time. I love to see them learn and grow. That moment when they "get" something is magical! I spent the 2011-2012 school year teaching at a title 1 school in Collier County and have grown exponentially from it! I had several students in my class who needed special help, and half of my class were English language learners. These students have helped me to strengthen my skills and adapt to different student's styles.
I like to make teaching fun! If a student is bored they aren't going to be putting 100% into their work. I also use a positive reward system and celebrate all achievement. Even if it is minor.

My comments on tutoring English ESOL : Native Speaker

I was an English Instructor in an elementary school in Germany. Up to 12 children (2nd Grade, ages 8-9 years). In addition, I taught English at a German Day Care facility where the children were between the ages of 2-5 years old. My responsibilities included teaching everyday vocabulary in a fun and exciting way. The company that I worked for was contracted by the US Army in Europe to provide American children with special courses to enhance their experience in Europe. I taught German to US military family members (ages 6-18). I was responsible for creating an efficient and enriching curriculum. I provided the students with working materials as well as books and games. I offered homework support and tutoring for children of German and American families (German and English language). The ages varied from 1st Grade to college students.I worked as a freelancer to provide customers with tra ... read more

I like to help people. I like to teach others and I'm not afraid of the challenges that go along with it. I also believe that children learn in different ways, so the method of presentation may be different too. I use different techniques to present a lesson to each student.

I enjoy teaching subjects in which I feel comfortable with. I am self confident and positive in the things that I do, and when I tutor I make sure this confidence is transferred to the other person. I am patient and place a lot of emphasis in motivating. I feel that all kids have great potential in different subject areas; unfortunately, many times that potential is not fully developed or developed at all, due to the lack of self confidence or a friendly sincere voice that tells them they can do it.
When I came to this country, one of my goals was to succeed and the first thing that I needed to do was to learn the English language the correct way. I enrolled in ESOL classes and was determined to master the language. I obtained a Bachelor’s degree from the University of Florida, and then a Masters degree from Phoenix University. Although my degrees are in Business Administration; ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As an English Education major, I have had numerous encounters in the classroom with each of my classroom practicums. After completing my degree in the fall of 2009, I will have over three semesters of classroom experience, working with students from the sixth grade to the twelfth grade. I have also worked as a childcare provider for several years, in addition to tutoring both Math and English as a part-time job.
Throughout my studies I have learned that all students learn differently. When teaching in a classroom, I will have to discover the way each student learns individually. An important aspect of my teaching experience has been to get down on that students level, and look at the struggles each student has in the classroom. I modify lessons in order to have each student adapt them to his or her own learning style. I believe that each student is willing to learn, but needs ... read more

I have been teaching since 2004, after graduating with a degree in Elementary Education. I started my first year in a 4th grade classroom. It was a wonderful learning and growing experience. Then I moved on to Middle School, 8th grade Intensive Math to be exact. I always taught the older students for their level in both the 4th grade and the 8th grade, and I found it challenging but great to find ways to keep them motivated on a daily basis. From there, I moved to my current position and I will be in this position for a long time. I work as the High School Intensive Reading Teacher. I love to teach reading to the students who do not know the basics and you move them up in grade level, in order to pass the FCAT! When they pass the FCAT it is so rewarding!
I love teaching children of all ages. I live especially to teach reading! I have been able to motivate my most unmotivat ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

The definition of success varies from person to person, from situation to situation, from school to school, from goal to goal. A success story that I am proud to repeat to all who will listen occurred during the 2003-2004 school year. I had a group of 50 awnery, rambunctious, and extremely diverse eighth graders. These eighth graders were highly motivated. Unfortunately they were not motivated in the area of English, or responsibility, dependability, perseverance, or respect. Though these students had an abundance of creativity, knowledge, and ability, they lacked the focus and direction to use it TOWARD their education rather than AGAINST it. Through a lot of modeling, practice, encouragement, praise, and I'll admit, a lot of begging at times, these students began to become self-advocates for their own education. They began clearly seeing their education as an investment ... read more
