More About This Tutor...

I have tutored people in math before. Their grades have ranged from 7th-10th grade. I have also helped friends in classes in college that have to do with statistics and other math classes. When I was in high school, the highest math class I had ever taken was Calculus BC. This was the highest math class that my school offered so I believe that I could people pass their math classes in high school and possibly College. I also scored a 730 on the Math section of the SAT.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have earned both a MA and a BS in Urban and Regional Studies from Minnesota State University. I spent 15 years working in local government management. Throughout my career, I have taken opportunities to hire and mentor graduate student interns. Several of these interns have gone on to successful careers in local government management and planning. Recently, I was accepted into the Educator Preparation Institute at St Johns River Community College. This semester, I am taking four classes, including Classroom Management, Instructional Strategies, Teaching and Learning Process, and Technology. I have received a passing score on the 6-12 Social Studies exam. Upon completion of the EPI program, I plan to teach high school social studies.
I believe that an instructor’s primary role is to create an environment that encourages a real desire to learn by presenting the subject matter in ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I began my teaching career as a writing/reading tutor while attending Ramapo College of New Jersey. During this time I was working in the English Lab, and was responsible for helping students improve their skills in researching and writing essays, compositions and research papers. After graduating from Ramapo, I entered the field of aviation, where I earned a certificate as a Certified Flight Instructor. I have been teaching various aviation related subjects for over 5 years. Most recently, I have been living in Daegu, South Korea teaching English as a Second Language to Korean students between the ages of 6 and 18.
I consider myself easy going and fun. In my experience as a teacher, I find that the most effective results come through what might be called "gentle guidance" rather than a more dictatorial style of teaching. I believe that children love to learn new things and are cur ... read more

I believe that all students can learn. It's just a matter of finding the instructional style that matches their learning style. I am a firm believer in the theory of multiple intelligences, developed by Dr. Howard Gardner and adapted to the education field by Thomas Armstrong. It's not how smart you are, but how are you smart! To me there is nothing better than seeing the lightbulb go on in students' eyes when they "get it." My job as a teacher is to figure out how to bring each individual student to that point and guide all of them to reach their fullest potential.
I have 19 years experience as a high school teacher. In that time, I have taught several different English classes and reading. I have been a department chairperson, a reading coach, and have taught a variety of graduate level education courses to teachers as well. I was honored as Wentzville High School teacher ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I find great joy in watching a child progress in their education. All children are capable of learning at their own pace, and through repetition. Your child will find success and ease in their academics through my assistance. I am patient and understanding, yet persistent. I firmly believe in encouraging a child to discover his/her strengths in order to overcome whatever obstacles may present themselves. I make learning fun by using everyday life siutations parallel to each equation. If more learning were hands-on, more students would be able to apply learned techniques to their situation at hand.
As a college senior, I have accumulated countless hours towards tutoring and mentoring those in need. Whether it's Pre-K, Elementary, Junior High, High School and College students, I spend a great part of my life not just accomplishing goals, but taking the time to extend a hand and bring ... read more

I have two bachelors degrees, however, I believe it is my experience teaching children that has helped me develop a good sense on how to approaching teaching scenarios. I have years of experience teaching children in academics, music, and dramatic arts, as well as coaching basketball and teaching golf at the professional level.
Each child is different. I always try to notice and acknowledge what benefits each student, as I think this applies to all forms of teaching from academics to athletics. Getting on their level is what ultimately benefits the child from the get go and gains their interest. If I'm interested, then the child is interested. I do my best to make sure the child is setting their goals and doing their best to achieve them in the way and style for which they are best suited.

To me teaching is about solving puzzles. Each student needs different devices or strategies to learn at their full potential. This is why I believe in experimenting with how class or a learning session is conducted. I pride myself on my courage to try something new and original in order to reach a student, even if it means failing; but from that failure I still learn. I feel the most important thing to teaching is to make a connection with the individual person - not just the student.
I recently completed my education to be a communication and English educator at the University of Minnesota - Duluth. Through the program I spent a year as an apprentice at a middle school and high school. At these locations I not only observed, but also conducted the classroom a day each week. Also at this time I spent a day tutoring a low functioning reader one-on-one for the entire semester. ... read more

I do believe that all children have the ability to learn the subjects however not all children are in the right mind to do so. My goal is to show in real world, understandable terms the subjects we will work on. I believe that if a child is explained the rules in terms and words he/she understands, then he/she will grasp the material and carry it with them into the future rather than trying to cram for an exam with no retention.
I graduated from UNF in 1993 with a Bachelor's of Business Administration in the field of Management. The degree required classes in Accounting, Finance, Algebra and Economics. Mathematics has risen to be one of my preferred subjects, tutoring this subject for a year to date.

I have loved and been involved in teaching for the past twenty eight (28) years. I believe in starting with a clear idea of what the student must be able to do at the end of specific periods in order to complete a syllabus. To be effective, I feel it is necessary to have prepared, before the start of an academic period, all the lesson materials germane to that period inclusive of all measuring instruments that would monitor the students understanding of the material as they are exposed to it. I believe that, from the outset, the student must feel a part of the learning process. I believe in defining a student’s knowledge base and then guiding them to where they need to be. For me, a successful tutoring assignment would be when the student were confident enough to sensible question the information been delivered.

My teaching style is a type of facilitator approach. I realize the with every classroom there is middle level of learners the same as lower and higher achievers. My goal becomes aimed at the middle with reserves and encouragement for the lower as well as higher students.I often try ro challenge the classroom wholly and getting to know my students individually. This is key. My goal should be shared by my student instead of mowed over by it. Together we learn not individually.
I began teaching in 1998. My previous job was taken away by forces of nature. I had taken advantage of the Military Troops to Teachers Program with no clear pathway to practice. Until I found myself with a possibility of unemployment. I I applied at a correctional facility and I was hired over the next week. Hence my introduction to the classroom and the world of academia. Over the next five years I was for ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have always had a gift with teaching. I have conducted many training programs with the companies I have worked. I have taught college level management courses with Keiser University in Daytona. I am very gifted in Math and have tutored several students to assist them in understanding the importance of math in the real world.
I am a believer in the old adage,” You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him drink.” I believe that it‘s the instructor’s job to try to motivate the student to learn the subject. The instructor need to teach the student that the information is important and worth the student’s time. If the student is not motivated to learn then the session will not be as productive.
