Education is So Important. Let Me Help

I have always been a teacher. I taught swimming when I was 14 and French to fifth graders when I was in high school. I love working in education. I believe that all people, young and old, can learn and reach their potential. My teaching style is calm and patient. I have a good sense of humor and am creative. However, I have high expectations for my students and for myself. I find joy in learning and believe that teaching allows me to share this joy.
I have been a teacher for 40 years. I retired because family care-giving required my full attention. My studies prepared me to teach and my experience prepared me to meet the needs of each student. I am experienced in all areas of Language Arts; reading, writing, grammar and literature as well as elementary math, history, psychology and the arts. I can help students with the organizational and learning skills that are import ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have had the pleasure of teaching English to high school students for 25 years. This was an occupation that I enjoyed immensely. My duties included teaching reading comprehension on a literal and figurative level. My background enabled me to present historical background on particular novels and authors. I have also taught all levels of writing. Some of these include written analysis of literature, first person narrative essays, creative writing, and writing for college.

Learning comes with a pinch of confidence & creativity. :)

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 kid learns confidence, they begin to have the fuel needed to learn. As they grow in this confidence, they can begin to experiment in their learning and become creative in the skills they master.
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 hel ... read more

Work Smart, not Hard

Senior majoring in Psychology and Political Science at Auburn University. I attended a college prep high school in the top 10% of my class. I scored a 29 on the ACT and 1370 (without writing) on the SAT. I'm in the Honors college at Auburn and am a member of multiple organizations and honors societies including the Auburn University Mock trial team and Phi Lambda Sigma honors society. My goal is to attend law school after graduating this spring. I have some experience tutoring high school algebra I/II but I am experienced enough to cover a range of other subjects.
Hands on Socratic method of teaching where the focus is allowing your student to arrive at the answers themselves with the help of some targeted guidance and strategies.

I have been taking classes at Daytona State for 1 semester, but like my credentials said, I have gotten awards through them from my Middle School, and high school. I have been tutoring since 2003. I have had multiple students at one time, so group sessions may be common in my teaching. I am in all advanced classes, and I can tutor in just about ever subjects.
I teach either one on one or in groups with the same subject, depending on how many students I get.

I Will Meet You Where You Are!

I believe every student can learn! School was never meant to be a struggle, an effort yes, but not a struggle!
Hello! I have 15 years of teaching experience in the classroom and have been tutoring now since January of 2012. I have a true passion for teaching! I have taught in the parochial, private, and public schools. I taught at Assumption Catholic School from 1997-2004, English and Reading to 6th-12th grade ESE students at The Broach School from 2004-2008, and Intensive Reading to 11th and 12th graders at Andrew Jackson High School (public inner city urban in Duval County) from 2010-2011. I have also conducted FCAT, ACT, and SAT prep, as well as study skills in the summer months when students don't have schoolwork! While in the classroom my average student came up 3-4 grade levels in a year in reading comprehension, fluency, vocabulary, spelling, and language mechanics. My certi ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have over 22 years of teaching experience at the Secondary and Adult level. I have written and implemented several innovative courses, and redesigned curriculum to include interdisciplinary education. I have addressed several NEA conventions on teaching across curriclum boundaries. My favorite composition of curriculum was my work at combining English composition with Western Civilization and Fine Arts. I have also authored several papers on writing technique for teachers to become more effective teachers of writing essays and research papers.
My teaching style varies with audience. I believe that most students need to first understand what a question is asking, (we all assume what is being asked yet never give it a great deal of thought) then proceed to elaborate on the wrong answer. Study technique is to me a critical element in learning. This usually means SQ3R. I am not a tal ... read more

More About This Tutor...

In addition to a B.A. in History and an M.A. in Legal studies, I completed (with an A for all) the 21 credit hours in education courses required to teach secondary education in Maryland. I then earned scores in the above-average range on all three sections of PRAXIS I: Academic Skills Assessments and recently passed the PRAXIS Social Studies Content Knowledge.
Although my teaching experience has not been in a formal classroom, I have taught gymnastics to children and adult computer skills, sliding-seat rowing, calisthenics, and swing dancing. I am exceptionally conscientious, caring, and energetic and feel that my education, empathy, and desire to help others make me an excellent candidate for tutoring. I believe I would be a tremendous asset to your staff and am anxious to utilize the teaching skills I have learned to make a difference in students’ education.

I consider myself easy going and fun. In my experience as a teacher, I find that the most effective results come through what might be called "gentle guidance" rather than a more dictatorial style of teaching. I believe that children love to learn new things and are curious by nature, making the job of teaching an easy one, for all that needs to be done is to arouse the interest that already exists, and show them the opportunities available to them. As a former Corporate Pilot, I understand the need for structure and attention to detail, and believe that these elements can be incorporated into lessons in dynamic and exciting ways, providing the best possible learning experience.
I began my teaching career as a writing/reading tutor while attending Ramapo College of New Jersey. During this time I was working in the English Lab, and was responsible for helping students improve their ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have earned both a MA and a BS in Urban and Regional Studies from Minnesota State University. I spent 15 years working in local government management. Throughout my career, I have taken opportunities to hire and mentor graduate student interns. Several of these interns have gone on to successful careers in local government management and planning. Recently, I was accepted into the Educator Preparation Institute at St Johns River Community College. This semester, I am taking four classes, including Classroom Management, Instructional Strategies, Teaching and Learning Process, and Technology. I have received a passing score on the 6-12 Social Studies exam. Upon completion of the EPI program, I plan to teach high school social studies.
I believe that an instructor’s primary role is to create an environment that encourages a real desire to learn by presenting the subject matter in ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated from Flagler College in 2006 with a BA in English and double minors in Religion and Youth Ministries. I taught in Duval County under temporary certification for one year before moving to South Carolina. I have spent the past three years teaching English Language Arts at the middle school level while obtaining my professional certification. I have experience with students at a wide range of academic levels. My recent course-work has included a content literacy course, which included a focused study of phonics-based reading instruction, preparing me to reach and assist struggling readers. I have experience with one-on-one as well as small-group tutoring with students of a variety of needs and abilities.
I consider my teaching style to be very personal as I try to gauge exactly where each student is at and what he or she needs to succeed in my subject area. I try to merge ... read more
