Professional in home mathematics and science tutor.

I have been working in education for the previous 9 years and have worked with students in all grade levels including K-12, college, and adult learners. My experiences include teaching college level courses, substitute teaching in grade school, and in home private tutoring. I believe that all students can be successful if some one is able to teach them in the way that they learn the best.

I have been working with kids of all ages for a long time. I love to see them learn and grow. That moment when they "get" something is magical! I spent the 2011-2012 school year teaching at a title 1 school in Collier County and have grown exponentially from it! I had several students in my class who needed special help, and half of my class were English language learners. These students have helped me to strengthen my skills and adapt to different student's styles.
I like to make teaching fun! If a student is bored they aren't going to be putting 100% into their work. I also use a positive reward system and celebrate all achievement. Even if it is minor.

A Little Bit About Me...

I tutored students for 3 years while living in St Pete Beach, FL from 1995-1998. I specialized in mathematics at any level but also taught chemistry and physics. For the last 3 years I have been tutoring here in Lee county, in math and physics and helping 2 older students prepare for GED mathematics
My experience has been primarily with high school students. Sometimes I have to present a concept in several different ways before a student can understand. I present several different approaches to understanding a particular function and enjoy imparting knowledge to my students.

I believe that one particular style is not necessarily appropriate for all areas of studies or for students with varying assets and deficits. However, I attempt to have the student as involved and interactive with the learning rocess as can be achieved, and being legally trained, often employ the "Socratic Method"--an exchange of dialogue, which maximizes the student's participation and involvement, and even, on occasion, development of the learning process.
I provided volunteer services to disadvantaged youngsters in math, reading in Chicago and Florida. I have taught legal writing and was a substitute teacher in Lee and Collier Counties. I tutored and/or managed SES programs for 3 providers in Lee County and was Director of a tutoring Lee CY tutoring program. I have had my own tutoring company since 1995. I have tutored K-12 thru graduate levels, as well as SAT, ACT, and FCAT 3-1 ... read more

I earned an undergraduate degree from Ohio State University and a Master's degree in Special Education from Xavier University in Cincinnati, Ohio. I taught for the Priceton City Schools district in Cincinnati for 31 years.I taught mostly middle school in the areas of math and special education. I taught remedial math with our alternative school for "at risk" students. I also taught classroom management classes and special education classes for the Education Department of Xavier University. I worked part-time after I retired for a charter school company in charge of academic performance.
I believe all students can learn. We have to meet our students at their learning level and interest level. When we teach our students above their learning abilities it creates frustration and poor self-image. I believe students should be offered choices in their education to give them owner ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I prefer teching differented education (one-on-one)as opposed to whole classroom. Learning ability is a very personal thing, and each student has their own strengths upon which we can work. Teaching reading is an intense endeavor and focus is necessary. Most the students I served were low achievers in a classroom setting. Each needed personal attention.
During the past 30 years, I have earned teaching and elementary principal credentials from the State of Michigan. I also possess Masters level Reading Specialist certification taken as an undergraduate on my BA degree for Social Science. As a teacher, I have worked with students of diverse ages and lifestyles. I taught and served as vocational/academic principal in a State Correctional where I also taught ABE/GED reading and math. In the College Success Center at a Michigan Community College, I taught reading speed, comprehens ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a non-traditional student, my college experience awarded me many advantages, as well as, many opportunities to uncover hidden skills. I began tutoring for Student Support Services while attending community college in Southwest Virginia. I worked with adults, disabled and traditional students in many subject areas. This led to establishing the Eagle's Wing Mentoring Program while attending Florida Gulf Coast University for the first two years. I later transferred to the Office of Adaptive Services where I am currently still working with a wide variety of students.
As I discovered while in college, I have been instructing people all of my life. While working in the food-service industry for the past twenty-plus years, I have held supervisory positions and provided training to literally hundreds of employees. This natural ability to work with others became apparent when I beg ... read more

I am a graduate of Marymount University in Arlington, VA. I hold a dual bachelor's degree in History and English. I have taken several science and math courses as well at the college level. While I attended Marymount University, I tutored for 2.5 years in the subject areas of Writing, Reading, Vocabulary, English, and History. I also have experience as a Stockbroker with Fidelity Investments for 2.5 years, so my math skills are strong as well.
When I was in high school, I had a pre-calculus tutor. While I paid attention in class, I had trouble working out the math problems at home. I thank my tutor for the A I received in that subject. I believe every student can benefit from some one-on-one attention, whether the child is solving a math problem, researching for an essay, or learning to read. I believe in leading by example in problem solving, and by asking questions to help ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy the experience of sharing my knowledge with others and have a special interest in the success of children, as the father of three and a grandfather of one. Helping build a solid foundation for youngsters and young people is very important to everyone's future. I always have my student’s best interest at heart. I like an interactive and experiential approach to teaching where the students share in the process, rather just given material to digest and be tested on what they can remember. I believe the learning experience is a two way street and in an individual setting, such as the one on one environment of tutoring, the student and teacher get the ultimate in the conveying-feedback process.

After graduation I taught English for 28 years. During this time I became a Dept. Head. I also was trained to train teachers in learning styles and hemisphericity. I have adult AD/HD. I began working on teaching methods for AD/HD students. I have also trained over 200 teachers. I have tutored students for the GED, ACT, SAT, LSAT, and MCAT.
I believe strongly in approaching each child with a variety of techniques. I let the child explore why, then give concept information. The student then needs to practice, and finally personalize the information. This must be done using both analysis (left brain) and synthesis(right brain).

While living in Japan, I taught English to the Japanese nationals and was a teacher's aide in the Department of Defense Dependent's Schools in the special needs department. I worked directly with middle school children who had ADD, ADHD as well as other physical handicaps including Cerebral Palsy. I have 3 children that I have had to help with their homework and projects throughout the years. I enjoy working with children and believe education is the key to developing responsible adults.
I believe the best way to teach is to relate the subject to the children. A child may not understand fractions but if you ask them to divide up a candy bar, they know how many pieces they want to split it in to and how many they want. I believe that listening is the key to teaching. A good teacher and a good listener is the difference between a child attending school and a child excelling in ... read more

I believe the key to successful learning is mastering good basic reading comprehension and writing skills. Each child learns at a different rate and in different ways. I love the challenge of finding the right combination of techniques to help each child achieve success while relating their studies to the realities of their world. In order to make learning fun, I teach with humor, patience, and positive reinforcement to build confidence. Children are the future of the world. I love children and want to help them reach their full potential and discover the joys of learning that will last for a lifetime.
By completing numerous research papers for my MS degree in Human Resources and BA degree in Psychology, I learned excellent writing, oral communication, and critical thinking skills. Prior to these studies, I earned a degree in Dental Hygiene and enjoyed teaching children how to ... read more

I have been working in the banking field for over 15 years since I graduated with a degree in business. In Jan. 2009 I was laid off from a banking job for the second time. I am doing a career change to teaching. I have been hired as football coach at Estero High School, I will be working as a teacher this fall 2009. I have been fingerprinted by Lee County School and I am cleared to be employed. I have a son that is 8 years old I help with his home work every night. Last year in the second grade they wanted him to stay back, I said I would help him. This year in second grade he is making E & S Honor Roll.
My teaching style would be the same way I teach my son. I give him the opportunity to learn. I work with him. I put the time in to help him. I take the time to help him, and if he get a problem wrong I help him correct it.
