My comments on tutoring Florida Writes : I grew up in Florida, so I am familiar with the content.

Although I have never tutored professionally, I have had extensive experience tutoring friends and family in need. I am experienced in tutoring young children as well as classroom peers at my level. I have two bachelor degrees from UCF, Bio-medical Science and Psychology, and I feel confident in my ability to help anyone learn. I'm looking to earn extra money while completing my Master's degree at UCF.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have 10+ years experience helping ESL students prepare for the TOEFL and IELTS.

My teacher style is to first identify the specific area the student is struggling with. I help the students develop skills to better tackle the area. I believe in presenting the material in several different ways until the student understands it. I work hard to make learning a positive, fun and encouraging experience.
I am currently a School Psychologist for the school system. My job is to help identify students who have learning problems and develop interventions to target these problem areas. Since I have summers off, I usually work as a teacher/tutor. I absolutely love working with children on a one-to-one basis. I have experience working with students in Elementary School through College.

More About This Tutor...

As I teacher for the last five years in Lake County I have taught English as a second Langugage,and students with exceptionalitites in grades sixth through eight. I have students that have learned to read while in my class as well as increase their knowledge of how to sound out a word and independently being able to spell. My success rate this past year in a few of my prized students whom weren't even to write in complete sentences or spell resulted in them receiving a passing score of the grade 8 FCAT.
My teaching style is one that is easily relatable to the students. I teach bringing the real life to the classroom so it is applicable to other parts of their life, not just being able to comprehend the questions of a reading passage but successfully being able to apply what they have learned to life outside the classroom.

Through attention to the basics while keeping the atmosphere light, I am able to help children find their way to academic success. By encouraging the children to talk about their favorite subjects, I am able to tailor each session to their individual tastes. This has allowed my students to attain a high level of productivity in the time allotted to our tutoring sessions. As a skilled writer, I find that even the least willing reader finds it fun to read the stories that I place them into as leading characters. When caught early, every child's reading difficulties can become successes.
During the last fourteen years, I have made it my goal to read about two books per week. During this period, I have taught myself the computer, trained students in a variety of subjects, and home educated three children. It has been my privilege to work with a number of students, encouraging them in t ... read more

I have been teaching since I was seventeen years old. When I was a teenager in the island of Jamaica, I had very few available opportunities, so after a one year youth service volunteer pogram in a pre-school and kindergarten, I opened my own pre-school to service the children in my community. After migrating to the United States, I taught at a number of pre-schools. I later began working in the mental health field, and for the past 12 years, I have been committed to counseling and mentoring children. I also volunteer my time to teach Sunday school, and more recently began a volunteer reading program at a local commmunity center. For the past five years, I have also taught adult learners seeking a seminary education.
I enjoy working with children. I believe that all children have their own hidden potential and need the right kind of motivation to inspire them to be the best they ca ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

After graduating from Teachers College and also earning a bachelor's degree in sociology, teaching at the elementary level I desired to further my education in an area where I could better assist students to be successful. I have since earned an M. Ed in Special Education and Ed. S. in Educational Leadership. I have over 30 years of excellent teaching record at all levels - K-12. I have taught English, Math, and Social Science for most of my teaching career. During the last seven years I have worked as a Lake County instructional leader supporting both teachers and students. I am currently working with the students in the lower quartile to ensure success. I tutor, provide study and organizational skills where necessary.
I believe that all children can learn, maybe "not in the same way or on the same day" but at their own pace and to their learning style. Therefore I endeavor to tea ... read more

My teaching philosophy is to be kind, considerate, and respectful to each student and caregiver I encounter. I aim to teach students with respect by listening to their needs, giving them time to express their feelings, and allowing positive and creative time to practice what they are learning. I believe my role is to help them develop skills to not only master the subject which I am teaching (tutoring) but to develop tools they can utilize throughout their education. I encourage my students with positive reinforcement, and believe that students respond better to teachers and tutors whom they respect and have developed a relationship with. My goal is to make their education appropriate, exciting, and empowering. I also believe that learning is a “team” effort which requires work from the student, teacher, and supportive family. If applicable, I aim to show respect to caregivers by a ... read more

I love teaching young students and helping them succeed in their lives through education. I believe a good education is the one sure way any young person can succeed to better their lives and increase their options for good jobs.

Tutored students for GED exams at Seminole Community College and was a Adjunct instructor for accounting and federal taxation at several colleges in the Orlando area. As a owner of a CPA firm and as a tax manager in a local CPA firm I have always enjoyed teaching and training the young employees in the firm. I believe one on one teaching is the most effective and successful way to teach a subject.

A Little Bit About Me...

My experience as a graduate teaching associate and middle school elective teacher has given me the opportunity to touch the lives of many children and adults. I believe that anyone can achieve their goals when supported along the way. Being a visual learner myself, I firmly believe in the concept that we all learn in different ways. I feel that I can provide a multi-sensory approach to learning which will make learning fun. It is my hope to become one of the teachers that I have admired throughout my academic career.
I achieved a master's degree in communicative disorders to become a speech language pathologist. During my educational career, I have had the opportunity to conduct therapy with children with varying needs, including problem solving, pragmatics, memory, expressive language and appropriate question responses.

More About This Tutor...

As a high school student, I tutored elementary and middle school students in their homes. In college, I tutored elementary age migrant children after school in english, math, and with homework studies. I also have three years experience in a public school system as a substitute teaching all grades in all subjects ranging from math and english to agriculture and special education.
I teach according to each student's learning style. I pay special attention to verbal and physical queues to understand if and how I need to change my style. I have learned that not all students can learn in the same manner and need specialized teaching in order to achieve the greatest success.

Wisdom is my ultimate goal -- for myself and for my students. I know it's not easy to achieve, but I hope to get there someday, and I want to bring others with me. On the way toward wisdom we'll pass through knowledge and information. It's my role as tutor to help transform basic information into rich knowledge and, with the help of communication and a personal connection with the student, allow us to achieve and appreciate the gift of wisdom.

I enjoy helping students to get involved in their studies by using hands on manipulatives, games, and real life situations. I believe the role of the teacher is to be a facilitator for her students. She needs to support, promote, recruit, encourage, model, and explain. My goals are to create an environment conducive to learning, make learning fun, and help to build self-confidence and self-esteem in my students. Each student's progress needs to be continually assessed to further guide the student while challenging and motivating him/her to succeed. I know that given the time and the assistance needed, anyone can learn. The time invested in our children is such a wise investment because our children of today are tomorrow's future.
