"Half of knowledge is knowing where to find it."

After completing my undergraduate degree in English Literature at Florida State University, I worked as a substitute teacher in Hillsborough County for two years. In 2009, I completed my Master's Degree in Communication at University of South Florida while simultaneously employed at the Department of Special Education. I have been tutoring with Advanced Learners for 1 year and am currently an Adjunct Instructor of Public Speaking at HCC Dale Mabry.
Once while subbing, I entered a classroom where the students had been allowed to watch Jerry Springer on TV for the last two weeks. I couldn't let this continue, but I saw how emotional the class was about the show. I encouraged them to write their own talk show and told them we would perform it the next day. I find that connecting student's interest with the subject matter to be learned is the best way to teach.

My comments on tutoring Communications : Robert's Rules of Order, Decorum for interaction

I was a teaching assistant throughout high school. I graduated Magna Cum Laude and was inducted into Kappa Delta Pi. I was selected to teach intensive intervention and pursued my Master’s degree with a concentration in remedial reading. During the past four years I have taught 2nd-adult English Language Learners and tutored K-adult students in all disciplines.
Helping learners find solutions to their problems is my passion. My greatest strength is compassion. I believe that anyone can achieve. I enjoy helping others discover their innate joy of learning. I thrive on seeing the "light" in a learner's eyes. It drives me with a determination to find the best way to help each individual become a lifelong learner.

Patient, Engaging, Effective Tutor

I have tutored students in many subjects, including language arts, math, science, and reading. I have worked with students under NCLB and with FCAT (Florida's Comprehensive Assessment Test program). Some of my past students had learning disabilities, such as Dyslexia, ADD, ADHD, or diagnosed as "Slow Learner." Several of these students were being medicated and were repeating at least one grade. I was able to help them with their educational needs. I have an extensive academic background, possessing AA, BA, and MA degrees. I have a reputation for high personal integrity and positive results. All of my students have made significant improvements as I worked with them. In addition to tutoring, I have proctored grade school students in various subjects and adult learners in the GED as well as employment exams. I welcome the opportunity to help you or your child with their educational needs ... read more

I believe that the learner and instructor must work collaborative in order to be most effective. I believe in applied learnign which means that not only are the basics and mechanics necessary to form a foundation, but the learner must be able to see how the learning can benefit him or her now and in the future.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching all age groups of children. I know that every child is capable of not only learning a subject, but being successful at understanding and applying the subject material. I use a hands on approach, looking to see what strengths and opportunities a child has to offer and working to improve the child’s ability to learn the subject. I believe that children respond better to learning when they realize someone cares about not only them, but what they think. When a child is able to recognize that you value them and their opinion, it opens up a whole new door of learning for them
Being a business student required many hours of research and writing. As I went further and further into my major it became increasingly important that my information was both current and accurate. This made me focus on being able to find, translate, and relate multiple pieces of information into a c ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching children. I know from my experience everyone learns in different ways, but everyone can learn to their fullest potential if given the chance. I make learning fun and enjoyable for the child so that they understand what they are learning. I believe in teaching with visual, hearing, and hands on tactic. I like to see the expression on a child’s face when they have found the “AH-HA” moment. I like to make a difference in everyone’s life I touch.
I currently hold an accredited teaching certificate. I also have graduated from the University of Tampa with a Bachelor in psychology and art. I have experience working and teaching children for 10 years. I have taught swimming for ten and I taught preschool for one year. As I started my career life my first job was working with developmentally disabled population teaching art and then being promoted to the program coordinator ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My philosophy is that all children can learn and succeed in their studies. I have found over the years I have learned how adapt to a very much hands on approach or I can let the students discover on their own. Each child is different and a teacher must be flexible enough to adjust to the child's personality.
I have taught in the 70's and now again in the 20's. In between my teaching experience I worked for Nestle USA in sales and sales management. The experience I have gained from teaching and working for Nestle USA for 25 years will prove to be a valuable asset to your company. This year, along with teaching full time at Sunlake HS, I have also worked for A+CAT Tutoring Co. The ages range from 2nd grade to 5th grade and the subject are math and reading.

A Little Bit About Me...

While in High school I was in a program called Future Educators of America. I taught Emotional Handicapped Children by choice and I use what I have learned back then to teach today. I have 3 small children myself so I do enjoy teaching them new things and helping them further understand the concept more. Sometimes I use an example something they are familiar with, something that I know will grab their attention, then it does not even feel like learning. With me, the majority of learning is focused around being fun & creative where others are more in tuned to the reality of it as we all know this is how life is so I help them learn life skills as well. However I do utilize the importance of their involvement.
I currently instruct medical billing and coding classes. I have just started and I realized how much I love this. Even when I complete my own BA in Healthcare Management, this ... read more

I hold my Bachelor's degree in Business with a major in Accounting. Since graduating I have been employed in the Corporate environment holding positions from Internal Auditor to Corporate Controller. During the last five years I have been operating a small business accounting and specialized tax service in Dunedin, Florida. Many of the clients were new to the business world and had limited experience with the accounting and business systems that were required to operate. Through my teaching efforts, these clients are now educated in the operations and financial management of a company.
I fully enjoy working with students and potential business owners teaching the core requirements needed to successfully operate a company. I receive personal gratification knowing that I have succeeded in educating these individuals and love to see that others can succeed with the correct guidan ... read more

One of my older students described me as "having the patience of a Saint". One of the most rewarding moments in teaching is when a student that is struggling with a subject "gets it". Whenever possible I try to use examples from everyday life to explain the problem more clearly. I truly enjoy helping others and sharing my knowledge with them.
I earned my BA in Business Administration with a major in Accounting. I worked for 5 years as a controller for a medium size McDonald's Franchisee. I have over 23 years experience working as Director of Management Information Services where I worked directly under the Treasurer. Part of my job included preparing the quarterly financial statements and calculating annual fixed asset depreciation amounts. Most recently I was involved in the sale of 18 McDonald's restaurants.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a recent college graduate, my mind is sharp and my skills are fresh. Having written for my College newspaper, I finally realized how naturally writing came to me and how much I enjoyed it. Time spent in the professional media world with the Boston Herald helped me hone my skills and further educated me on the different styles of writing. Throughout my educational years, I received stellar grades on book reports, essays, term papers, thesis papers and more. Taking the natural gift of being able to transfer my thoughts, feelings and emotions onto paper and adding the knowledge I have gained of proper grammar and writing style has helped to sculpt me into the scribe I am today. Over the past few years I have tutored my three cousins, ages 6-13 and prior to that I was a student tutor for my local high school. I am well versed in creative writing, general writing, essay writing, grammar an ... read more

I have worked at a community college for over 8 years and I enjoyed going to work each and every day. I loved being with my students and sharing my expertise and work experiences. Sometimes a student would, in their words, ask a “stupid question”. I, of course, say there is no such thing as a stupid question and I would never mind repeating any information again to assist the learning experience. Teaching to me was never boring! I am a very patient teacher and accomplished artist. I possess excellent organizational and management abilities, am extremely computer literate (IBM & MAC) and I recently (1999) received my Vocational Teaching Credentials, in Multimedia from California State University, Long Beach.
I am extremely competent in creating and using multimedia presentation tools in the learning environment. I taught PowerPoint and Macromedia Director for 8 years and co-cr ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have spent my life in the public service arena. I have assisted children, youthful adults and families to improve their lives while working in social services. I have worked with children as a tutor or volunteer in church or other community affairs. I volunteer my services as a Family Mediator and juvenile detention worker.I believe that children and families today face one of the greatest challenges ever with the failing economy, serious health threats, unemployment, and a failing education system due to lack of funding and resources. In some small way, I believe in working with children within my family and community I am contributing to the improvement of the lives of my fellow Americans and in a Country that I love.
I am a great advocate of education and have spent a lifetime trying to obtain all the education and training I can. I have also assisted and encouraged others ... read more
