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

Education is So Important. Let Me Help

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 allows me to share this joy.
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 import ... read more

Read More About Edward W...

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 am a high energy, adaptable and enthusiastic leader who is a professional with extensive experience in management, recruiting, training and projects. I have a strong work ethic encompassed with a blend of leadership, creativity, and analytical abilities that combine efficiency with positive energy to produce bottom-line results. Although I am not a teacher, I am an educator in the training field, and consider training as a part of teaching. I have trained new employees and managers for over 5 years. I trained individuals to understand mortage banking concepts and leadership classes i.e., excelling as a first time supervisor and dealing with confrontational situations. I also assisted individuals with establishing and achieving goals by using consistent methods of "coaching and developing." I have learned and enhanced my grammatical skills through "trial and error" with writing ... read more

I like kids a lot and have been told several times that I have an uncanny ability to relate to the younger generation. My education philosophy is much like that of a trainer of athletes. It is my belief that each child has natural talent and with good coaching it can be brought to full potential. Teaching is about empowering and enabling children. It's not about hand holding and rote task giving. Seeing a child develop the skills he or she needs to succeed excites me.
I took Spanish throughout elementary, middle, and high school. I then took two Spanish courses in college. I've travelled to Latin America on four occasions and did fieldwork for my MA dissertation in Spanish. My level of spoken and written Spanish is high enough for tutoring at lower to intermediate levels. I spent 10 months in Brussels, Belgium. While living there I shared a flat with two native French ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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.
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.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a seasoned business executive I have not only assisted with teaching at the college level (advertising, editing and writing, math, history and civics) but have also trained hundreds of managers and sales reps through various seminars, and workshops. I have extensive grammatical skills, due to writing lengthy business proposals, professional letters, and complicated product summaries. My math skills have remained honed through thousands of contract negotiations, and department budget exercises. I love to not only instruct, but to also teach how various exercises will help students succeed in everyday life.
I enjoy working with children and young adults, and am aware that everyone grasps learning at a different pace and in a different manner. An approach that works with one student might not work as well for another. I am patient, enthusiastic, and committed to your child's succes ... read more

Lesson plans are framework to follow on a subject. It is important for a tutor to identify each student’s learning skills, and apply methods that would encourage the student to learn and advance in the subject. Progress monitoring between tutor, student and parents are vital of the learning process. I believe in using examples for student to relate and comprehend the subject. I use different methods and they include encouragement, repetition, understanding and stern as needed. I enjoy and take pride in helping children and others to advance in their education.

More About This Tutor...

When a student needs tutoring, there is a breakdown in the understanding of the subject. As a teacher, I find out the individual student’s thinking process and make it click for that particular subject. Quite often it is just a small portion of the process that is missing or the process does not make sense to the student. Breaking down the process step by step and using examples makes it easier for the student to get to the correct end results and understand how he or she got there. Understanding is the key.
My degree is in Financial Accounting. My teaching experience includes substitute teaching for high school level students in Computer Accounting, Business Math, Business English and Business Law. I taught all business classes in a position where the permanent teacher took a leave of absence for six months. I also volunteered at a senior center and taught computer classes. ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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...

A teaching style developed over many years as a registered nurse and military NCO and officer affords me the opportunity to boast that I truly believe in the diverse talents of every person. Each student possesses a unique range of talents; however, each has his or her weaknesses as well. Tapping into one's talents and using that talent to learn new concepts associated with those weaknesses is the key to successful learning and sustained retention of information. Learning is fun; it is not fun when the student feels inadequate, insecure or scrutinized. Recognizing a student's talents is the first element in teaching, since failure to do so provides no solid foundation upon which to build.
As both a registered nurse and a retired Navy officer, I am an avid practitioner of lifelong learning and a zealous teacher who has vast experience in teaching students in military and private ... read more

Establish a working rapport with the teacher and/or work under the teacher's direction, if necessary to assist the student. I was responsible for maintaining records on each student who is being tutored, including follow-up and periodic assessment. Evaluations and other reports as requested by the program director helped students develop positive attitudes toward learning and studying. ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Many years as a camp couselor have instilled a drive to help students achieve academic and altheltic excellence that has stayed true to this day. It is so important that a student get the instruction needed that lets them learn and process the information in a way that channels success. I noticed later on that my individual style of learning included more repetition and it was up to me to make sure I focused on this. At the end of the day it's about helping children work hard and when they get it and realize they get it, it's a wonderful thing.
Before moving on to Graduate School, I was fortunate to spend some time as a teacher’s aid for a private school that focused on students with a wide variety of learning deficiencies. The time I spent tutoring these students gave me a real appreciation and need for different styles of learning and the importance of structuring the materia ... read more
