Guitar Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Green Cove Springs, FL

I have tutored for Acers tutoring in Orlando for a full year. I have full experience with teaching reading and writing, as well as somer lower level algebra and mathematic skills. The kids have ranged from ages 8-14. As well, I have been giving guitar lessons to kids between the ages of 10-14. The children have all been able to pick up quickly, and being a song writer, I encourage the kids to seek full creativity in their music and learning. In college, I've spent my time volunteering with the youth group, and helping mentor kids in the middle school age. Also, I am a double major, and have majored in Education, which has allowed me to work with JEA and create lesson plans and teach a class of seventh graders. I implement creativity, and ample amount of positive, fun energy into the way I teach. I believe the key to any child's learning is first instilling confidence into them. When a

Rock/Blues are my main influences. I also teach Metal and Folk (sounds crazy, I know!) I've been a professional guitarist for 25 years. I've Played on and/or produced countless records. I opened The Music Studio in 2006. The main focus was Rock n' Roll (Guitar, Bass, Drums, Keyboards and Vocals. We had 4 teaching rooms where me and my staff would teach each student the same song in the same time slot, and they would perform it after a 2 or 3 month period. We also had a top of the line recording studio where I produced bands from around the US and Sweden. We also used it to record our students

I am an intermediate guitar player and can teach basic concepts. I have experience tutoring children of all ages. Having younger siblings of my own, ages 10 and 14, has given me the ability to communicate and relate to kids. I find it very rewarding when my students make progress in their studies, and I enjoy tutoring various subjects ranging from science to history.

I keep an open mind that most children learn in different ways. I try to provide lots of different ways of learning the same subject. I have a background in Anthropology and have traveled extensively throughout the globe and feel that it is my duty to make my teaching style multicultural and to make sure that no one is falling through the cracks. I try to laugh and smile a lot and find that students are more able to open up to me when I do. I always try to lead by example and do everything that I expect my students to do. It is very important to have high expectations for the students and to let them know what those expectations are. I was enrolled in the Master's Program for Elementary Education at the University of Florida and volunteered over 300 hours in the public school system. I have only one year left before obtaining my advanced degree should I decide to return to school.

I really enjoy helping others meet their potential and experiencing the joy of understanding math and science. Although I have taken many advanced mathematic classes, I can easily relate elementary, middle school and high school math subjects to students. Each student has a unique way of learning; my responsibility is to channel each student's ability. I strive to help students understand the subject and the importance of the subject. I have always been passionate about and excelled in mathematics. For this reason, I entered into the field of engineering and received a bachelors degree and masters degree. Although I have spent the past four years as an engineer, I have a lot of experience tutoring. Throughout college, I helped tutor fellow college students and high school students as well. I believe that I would be very helpful to all students seeking help in math.

In addition to 3 years of formal college teaching, I have conducted many evaluations ages 3 through adult to identify learning disabilities, and made recommendations for optimizing individual strengths and compensating for relative weaknesses. I have taught college level courses, published research, worked for the school system testing for eligibility for the Exceptional Student Education Program, and contributed to eligibility meetings in the school system to help design optimal individualized education plans based upon students’ needs. Becoming a tutor is a natural extension of my extensive experience combined with my passion to teach, with emphasis on individualized assessment and learning plans. My teaching style in general is aimed at teaching independent critical thinking and problem solving skills, with much positive praise along the way. This approach tends to foster a sense of

My credentials include Spanish teaching at Florida State College at Jacksonville since 1997, Scala Language Consultants, and Sea Coast Christian Academy in Jacksonville, Florida, as well as English as second language at the ESL Institute.

I hold a BA degree, and as a Certified Test Administrator I have facilitated testing for state, national and vocational tests (Stafford, Iowa, TABE and GED). Having lived in the USA most of my life, I have very good appreciation and understanding of both, the Anglo and the Hispanic cultures. I believe that you need to learn a language with an expert.

My teaching style is very different, but I love being able to differentiate my lessons to best suit my students. I do believe that all children have different learning styles, so when I deliver instruction, I try to combine the types of styles and incorporate kinesthetic activities for the students to visually see and have that hands on experience. I believe repetition helps children to learn and grasp instruction as well. Through repetition and correct delivery, the student will be able to remember and recall the facts they need in order to succeed in those areas of academics. Teaching is always a learning process. You learn new ways and ideas everyday. As a graduate of East Carolina University, I have continued to be persistent in every aspect of my teaching career. I have earned only a bachelor degree in Elementary Education with a minor in child studies, which have helped me to devel

My initial goal with any student is to establish comfort and trust. My easy going style and infectious smile will help any pupil feel at ease. My hope is always to create motivation within the student and confidence in their own ability. I see my position as assisting the student learn in a non-threatening environment. Criticism will always be GENTLE and instructive, directing the child or adult to the correct solution to any problem. Increasing self-confidence and self-esteem will empower the student and create an atmosphere where they have faith in THEMSELVES and are certain that they can learn anything that they wish and achieve even the loftiest goals. I began teaching private guitar lessons while I was still in High School. While working on my Bachelor's degree in Columbus Ohio I taught guitar and tutored Spanish. In 2002, I moved to Florida where I began working on my MA in Adult a

I believe that each child has the potential to learn. I love children and teaching them is my greatest passion. I am a firm believer of Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences which states that each child has a different learning style. I am patient, fun loving, and motivating. I allow my students to discover things on their own while providing the constructive guidance approach. I believe that learning has to be fun and meaningful.It has been my greatest accomplishment knowing that my work with children in the past nine years have produced children who are inspired to learn and continues to appreciate my work with them together with the approval of their parents. My nine years experience with children has honed my ability to connect with my students at a high level of excellence in education. My Bachelors degree in Sociology has enabled me to see students at their individual needs in

I strive to help students learn for themselves. As a tutor at the University of North Florida, I stressed critical thinking skills. I believe that critical thinking skills help a student improve all around. Through critical thinking students can pursue independent learning and feel more confident in themselves. Also, my approach to tutoring involves letting students release the concepts and answers for themselves. Though I help to reinforce key concepts and principles, a student should be able to come to conclusions by themselves this way, when confronted with real life situations or in class room situations, the student does not panic and can handle the problem. Formerly, I was employed as an ESL and Writing Tutor at the Academic Center for Excellence at the University of North Florida.

As an art teacher of over 15 years, I have taught painting, drawing, sculpture, ceramics, graphic arts, art history, and darkroom photography. I received my Bachelor of Arts degree in Fine Arts at Christopher Newport University and my Master of Arts degree in Teaching and Learning (in the art classroom) from Nova Southeastern University. I have also taught German, tutored pre-algebra, and coached high school tennis. Currently, I am a freelance graphic and fine artist, as well as an art history research writer. I love teaching art to all age levels. I really enjoy it when I show someone an art technique, they learn it, and make it their own. When teaching art, I feel it very important to demonstrate a technique, discuss how the technique has been used in different cultures, and then for the student to mimic my actions. Once the technique has been mastered, the student can take the t

I love mentoring and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but they all have different learning styles (auditory, visual, tactile, and kinesthetic). Also, learning must be relevant to each student. For example, using sports statistics to teach math. I am patient, easy going, and fun. I am a firm believer in teaching through self-discovery and in providing an open approach to learning. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and have support both in and out of the home. I received my Bachelor's Degree in Psychology and I have a Master's degree in Family, Youth and Community Science, with a focus on youth and community development. I was a substitute teacher in the Atlanta area for one year which gave me the chance to mentor and tutor several high school students in math. I have worked with kids through volunte

I have always been an avid reader and writer, as well as a natural teacher. As early as middle school, I was tutoring my fellow classmates at the request of their parents. I studied Latin for five years, which provided an exceptional foundation for the study of English, which I pursued as my major at Loyola University. I concentrated in Creative Writing, so the bulk of my college work consisted of reading and writing to very exacting standards. I graduated Summa Cum Laude, maintaining a 4.0 major GPA for my entire four years. I have since worked as an SAT Instructor for the Princeton Review and have also tutored privately and given music lessons for supplementary income. I have always had an inclination to teach. To me, there is something very exciting about conveying understanding of a concept to another person. I think I have a particular ability for identifying precisely what aspect o
