A Little Bit About Me...

I am interestd in the welfare of the student and that is why I became a teacher. I use the socratic method as well as the inductive approach. I'm flexible enough to meet the needs of the student. I feel all children have the right to excel and comfortable with their with subjects.
I received my PHD,eq after attending numerous universities i.e. Penn State, Kent State,Seattle University, Temple University. I started my teaching experience in a High School for ten years, and then on to college for twenty seven years. I have tutored math, all sciences including physics for many years until our recent move to Naples.

More About This Tutor...

I am a seasoned professional Tutor for the past 5 years; all subjects all grades. I have a BS from Florida International University and MS from Nova University (all coursework completed earning all A's). Having success in learning has as much to do with attitude as it does understanding and retention. This is the ultimate goal not only for the student, but the Tutor as well!
I've worked with children for the past 20 years and know the importance of helping children develop a positive attitude towards learning! Chances are if a student is having difficulty achieving academic goals, then they probably don't enjoy that subject and naturally resist that, which they need most. There are ways to develop a child's self esteem so they want and even enjoy learning!

I worked in California for one year as a substitute teacher; I worked for three years in a Christian School first in a 3-4 combination, then a 5-6 combination, then a 4-5 combination. I then moved on to tutoring. My first year was with Sylvan Learning Center, then with a private tutoring group, One to One Learning Center in Santa Rosa, CA. for six years. After moving to Florida and working in The Department of Children and Families, I tried other fields of work. From 2006 on, I have worked as an independent contractor for a local tutoring business. I tutor all age groups and specialize in SAT, ACT, and FCAT preparation. I also tutor students in Reading Comprehension and Study Skills.
I enjoy working with students of all ages and ability levels. I meet them and determine their learning style as well as general abilities. Helping each student to discover his or her strengths i ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I spent 6 years tutoring my children who were ESE and ADHD and have been tutoring others for a year. My students range from first grade through college in mathematics and grades 1-8 in all subjects and preparation for FCAT, SAT, ACT. I have a BS in Mathematics with a minor in physics and and AAS in data processing. I use a variety of methods to teach effectively.
I have taught many subjects and sports throughout my life. I have always enjoyed teaching. My tutoring results are mirrored in the grades of my students. I usually assess the present situation, attempt to bring the student current, then cover material expected for the grade level that may have been missed. A good basic knowledge and ongoing supervision with attention to student organization provides lasting results.

A Little Bit About Me...

Throughout high school and college, I've always excelled in my school work. I was president of the math club and often tutored my peers during my spare time. The University of Florida has provided me with a well rounded education, and I feel myself knowledgable in many areas, from languages like french, spanish and hindi, to the sciences like chemistry, biology, and physics. I'm also very familiar with writing term papers.
I like to teach by example and immersion. So much of what schools preach today is rote memorization, and to a certain degree, this cannot be avoided. But whenever possible, I like to try and find real world applications and demonstrations to get my lessons across to my pupil.

A Little Bit About Me...

My passion for language and literature drives my desire to teach; I love to share everything from a basic grammar lesson to an in-depth, critical exegesis of a foreign novel. I strive to provide an individual-based educational experience for each child. I draw on each student's strengths and weaknesses to tailor each lesson. As the poet Stanley Kunitz once wrote, "live in the layers / not on the litter."
As a graduate of a private liberal arts college, I was educated in English and multi-cultural literature. As a reflection of what I was learning, I became interested in participating in the literary tradition, and began to take creative writing very seriously. I developed a passion for both poetry and literature and wish to share it with my students. I have tutored English, writing, history, ecology, and screenwriting.

More About This Tutor...

I am a very recent graduate of Penn State where academics are a main focus. I have a B.S. in Psychology and a B.A. in Political Science and feel qualified to tutor in spelling, writing, English, reading and related subjects. I would tutor a student in other subjects on a case by case basis. I have written a lot of papers and am very good at grammar. I have been an English tutor to foreign adults and my students always do well and enjoy learning.
I am a very patient person and my teaching style reflects that. I will always make sure your child understands the concepts that the teacher is trying to teach. Even when he or she shows that the material is understood I will always go over it a few more times to make sure it really sticks. Everyone has a learning style that works best for them and I will try to figure out the method that will allow your child to improve the most. I will al ... read more
