More About This Tutor...

I have had the pleasure of teaching English to high school students for 25 years. This was an occupation that I enjoyed immensely. My duties included teaching reading comprehension on a literal and figurative level. My background enabled me to present historical background on particular novels and authors. I have also taught all levels of writing. Some of these include written analysis of literature, first person narrative essays, creative writing, and writing for college.

Education is So Important. Let Me Help

I have been a teacher for 40 years. I retired because family care-giving required my full attention. My studies prepared me to teach and my experience prepared me to meet the needs of each student. I am experienced in all areas of Language Arts; reading, writing, grammar and literature as well as elementary math, history, psychology and the arts. I can help students with the organizational and learning skills that are important in a student’s success.
I have always been a teacher. I taught swimming when I was 14 and French to fifth graders when I was in high school. I love working in education. I believe that all people, young and old, can learn and reach their potential. My teaching style is calm and patient. I have a good sense of humor and am creative. However, I have high expectations for my students and for myself. I find joy in learning and believe that teaching a ... read more

Learning comes with a pinch of confidence & creativity. :)

I implement creativity, and ample amount of positive, fun energy into the way I teach. I believe the key to any child's learning is first instilling confidence into them. When a kid learns confidence, they begin to have the fuel needed to learn. As they grow in this confidence, they can begin to experiment in their learning and become creative in the skills they master.
I have tutored for Acers tutoring in Orlando for a full year. I have full experience with teaching reading and writing, as well as somer lower level algebra and mathematic skills. The kids have ranged from ages 8-14. As well, I have been giving guitar lessons to kids between the ages of 10-14. The children have all been able to pick up quickly, and being a song writer, I encourage the kids to seek full creativity in their music and learning. In college, I've spent my time volunteering with the youth group, and hel ... read more

Honors High School Graduate with experience in teaching

My lessons can range from private lessons to group lessons of no more than five at one time. I prefer to be very involved in my students' progress, and will readily explain any questions that they do not understand. My main strategy is basically to lay out the concepts that will be covered that day, go over several practice problems, and give three or four practice problems for the students to work on independently. For art students, I will demonstrate with explanation the concept that we will be covering in that lesson (be it portraiture basics or still life basics), draw diagrams with the steps clearly labeled, and have the student independently work on a similar piece which applies the same concepts. I will supervise the student's progress and correct any lasting errors, but I prefer to have the students produce an almost entirely independently produced piece each session.

I Will Meet You Where You Are!

I believe every student can learn! School was never meant to be a struggle, an effort yes, but not a struggle!
Hello! I have 15 years of teaching experience in the classroom and have been tutoring now since January of 2012. I have a true passion for teaching! I have taught in the parochial, private, and public schools. I taught at Assumption Catholic School from 1997-2004, English and Reading to 6th-12th grade ESE students at The Broach School from 2004-2008, and Intensive Reading to 11th and 12th graders at Andrew Jackson High School (public inner city urban in Duval County) from 2010-2011. I have also conducted FCAT, ACT, and SAT prep, as well as study skills in the summer months when students don't have schoolwork! While in the classroom my average student came up 3-4 grade levels in a year in reading comprehension, fluency, vocabulary, spelling, and language mechanics. My certi ... read more

ALL STUDENTS WELCOME!

I have been a self-employed Tutor since April, 2006. Special needs and home schooled students are welcomed. Nothing makes me happier than when I see the smiles on the faces of my students when they succeed rather than fail. I assist all students in skill building and creating a life-long love of learning. I provide on-going feedback to parents and am happy to work with the teachers of my students.
Whenever I can, I like to be very hands-on in my teaching my students. For example, once I was teaching my class about trees. I had them go outside and collect samples of bark which had fallen on the ground. Then we created a gigantic mural in my classroom and glued the pieces of bark to a tree we had drawn.

My comments on tutoring Poetry : I have tutored and taught students different poetic devices and terms(various areas)

I have wanted to teach students since the first grade. My mother has all my memoirs stored away. I have learned to be so creative in the English realm. I have created so many assignments over the years for my students. Each year the assignments are different. I have also used my creative models as manipulatives for students when they are struggling with English or reading. I teach students to explore and engage in the world of learning and not just follow someone else's lead. The world is filled with creativity I as well as my students have been on an exploration voyage for years.
My passion for teaching is enormous. I am an innovative teacher who really allow students to use their multiple intelligences. I feel in order for a student to successful with his/her learning he or she has to be comfortable with the exposed environment. I allow a lot of group collaboration in my classro ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As an educator in the public sector, I recognize the growing gap in education. I also understand the pressure put on teacher's and the lack of time to get student's to where they need to be. It is imperative that students have the opportunity to be provided with academic assistance that is relative to what is needed to progress through school and life. With over twelve years of experience, a Masters in Business, and a Specializing in Educational leadership, I have the qualities that is needed for students achieve academic success.

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 over 22 years of teaching experience at the Secondary and Adult level. I have written and implemented several innovative courses, and redesigned curriculum to include interdisciplinary education. I have addressed several NEA conventions on teaching across curriclum boundaries. My favorite composition of curriculum was my work at combining English composition with Western Civilization and Fine Arts. I have also authored several papers on writing technique for teachers to become more effective teachers of writing essays and research papers.
My teaching style varies with audience. I believe that most students need to first understand what a question is asking, (we all assume what is being asked yet never give it a great deal of thought) then proceed to elaborate on the wrong answer. Study technique is to me a critical element in learning. This usually means SQ3R. I am not a tal ... read more

I graduated from Flagler College in 2006 with a BA in English and double minors in Religion and Youth Ministries. I taught in Duval County under temporary certification for one year before moving to South Carolina. I have spent the past three years teaching English Language Arts at the middle school level while obtaining my professional certification. I have experience with students at a wide range of academic levels. My recent course-work has included a content literacy course, which included a focused study of phonics-based reading instruction, preparing me to reach and assist struggling readers. I have experience with one-on-one as well as small-group tutoring with students of a variety of needs and abilities.
I consider my teaching style to be very personal as I try to gauge exactly where each student is at and what he or she needs to succeed in my subject area. I try to merge ... read more

As a black belt in karate, I assisted in the instruction of several classes. Also, at Flagler College, I worked in the school's Writing Center for three out of the four years I attended it, tutoring students and assisting them with written assignments for class. Majoring in English and minoring in creative writing, I achieved a high level of understanding both of grammar and how to help others understand it.
I am a very patient person and easy going. When tutoring someone, I attempt to help them figure things out without providing them with the answers. basically, I want to help them help themselves. Having been taught this way myself, I believe this helps students achieve a greater grasp on the material.
