More About This Tutor...

As I indicated, I have a B.A.in Philosophy and later studies in Art. Later, in 1975, I decided to return to obtain a DMD at BU. After that I joined the Army and served as an Army dentist. Due to events in my life following my brief sojourn in the Army, I traveled abroad to India and Asia. Upon returning, I continued to study, but this time in more spiritual matters. I currently live with my daughter and 3 grandchildren and we have a small family registered daycare. I also participate with the children. However, I do spend a few hours a day writing and I am also a webmaster.
Of the essence in tutoring is to make the subject pertinent and fun, as well as applicable to everyday life. For small children, we have phonetics to help the child master sounds and words. I do use Ipod teaching games to involve the child actively. Obviously for older children, who may have trouble expressin ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My goal is to provide the best education possible. I would use all the learning styles while tutoring a person to evaluate and develop the learning style which best fits the individual. I believe anyone can learn and have fun doing so, it is the teacher or his style or any combination which hinders the student.
I am a college graduate with degrees in finance and real estate. Through the years I have educated myself through higher learning in all areas of academics. Years ago I performed all the requirements needed to graduate a four year college, one of which is interaction with other students in a study group atmosphere and either learning or teaching each other. I have always loved learning and teaching people which I believe qualifies me to tutor young people.

I believe instructors should be fair and knowledgeable in order to be effective educators. I believe allowing students to have some flexibility and leadership in their own learning makes a more enthusiastic and motivated student. I believe instruction should be purposeful, meaningful, and appropriate for what each student is required and capable of attaining. I also use assessments (formal and informal) to measure and adjust learning goals for all students regularly.
I have taught elementary through high school special education as well as regular education course loads. I have experience in alternative school settings, juvenile justice, and public school, as well as GED prep work. I regularly integrate technology into instruction and attend professional development opportunities when they are provided.

A Little Bit About Me...

I taught nights at Prospect Hall College in Hollywood for 4 years. 1-2 courses per quarter. They awarded AA degrees in computer programming, business administration and others. I taught accounting I & II, personal income tax, managerial accounting, business administration, bookkeeping and public relations. I did tutor my grandson last year for 4 months while his family stayed with us. Algebra was one of the courses. I can pick up programs and apply them right away, ie:test prep, elementary, middle and high school courses I selected outside of Accounting/finance base.
I have learned to apply various teaching methods to reach each student individually. It doesn't matter how smart I am, a master of the subject or my business successes. It matters that they get what they can out of the subject. Even how to take a test or to test the reasonableness’ of the answer. Seeing the "light go o ... read more

My educational and work experience backgrounds have provided me with proficient skills in math, organization, multi-tasking, computers and various software programs. Since 1992, I have taught subordinates, peers, managers and directors how to manage their budgets, understand their financial reports, and how to use their computers more effectively. For the past four years I have taught medical assistant students in the subjects of using a computer in the office and business ethics. I continue to improve my teaching skills by taking on-line teaching courses.
I have a natural gift for working with children. I am a good listener. I am very patient with those I teach.

I also try to inspire them to ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

At my undergraduate program, my professor for a course in Symbolic Logic asked to refer students in the class to me, if they had questions about the material. After the class had finished, the professor hired me through the university's Philosophy Department as a tutor for the same class. After graduation, I acted as a private tutor in my spare time. At Columbia University I was a Teaching Assistant for three college courses, giving me my greatest experience with explaining course material to a large group of students. I am currently working as a private tutor, with most of my clients learning college-level intermediate Algebra or Symbolic Logic.
I love to interact with somebody who is curious and interested in the subject, no matter what the subject. In mathematics, I believe in a very thorough and conceptual understanding of the subject, which enhances one's ability to use t ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I've been a full time substitute teacher in the Martin County School District since 2007. During 2008-2009, I was a permanent substitute at Stuart Middle School. During 2009-2010, I was given a five-month assignment as an ESE facilitator. In that capacity, I tutored students one on one, administered and modified their assessments, wrote progress reports and took part in conferences with their parents. I’m regularly given VE and gifted classroom assignments and have established a reputation as an effective educator.
My teaching style is a combination of humor, question and answer, life experience, and history. I treat my students as adults. I follow the road, but go with the flow; no battle plan survives the first shot. There are many paths to learning. I never assume mine is the only way. Teaching is as much about learning as it is teaching. I listen to what my students have to sa ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I graduated with my BS in CSD and am now going for my Master's. I have worked with children of all ages specifically in literacy, writing, and speech. I am comfortable teaching up to and including Algebra,any history, and elementary school science.
I don't just want to regurgitate information to a student; I want them to learn. I allow them to try to complete and assignment, and if they ask questions, I think of the child's learning style. How they learn affects how I explain it to them or how I show them. If they are having trouble understanding, i will model their question and answer it correctly. I will ten ask them the differences between the two. I am very patient, easygoing, and I give praise often.
