Experienced Tutor

As an engineer and I have taught planners and engineers how to use software to do calculations. I have taught GRE preparation for Kaplan (analytical and verbal reasoning) both to small classes of 3 to 7 students and individual tutoring. In 2009, I was accepted into the Educators of Change program by the Duval County School Board. I am now a certified teacher in Mathematics and Physics (grades 9-12). I have a bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering and a master’s in Public Administration. In addition, I have learned extensive grammatical skills through writing articles for publication and many professional reports.

My comments on tutoring Florida Writes : I am currently tutoring students in preparatiion for Florida Writes.

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

Extremely patient, cool tutor wanting to help you

Extremely patient, but organized. Teach students how to be organized, how to properly prepare for tests and to be able to recall information when needed.
Seven years of experience as a case manager with Healthy Families, where we helped teach families for to be better parents and to become self-sufficient. Besides being extremely organized, I am very patient and try to reach everyone on whatever level they are currently on. I don't just shove a bunch of information at you and hope you get it. Instead, I build on what strengths you already have, and show you how to use your unique, individual learning style when I am tutoring you. My strengths have always been writing, spelling, and all things related to Language Arts/English Comp. Also, I have always been pretty successful at test taking and study techniques.

I believe that my instructional abilities combined with my solid analytical leadership, interpersonal skills, and work ethic would greatly benefit your educational program. I believe that education is the key to success for young adult students. As a teacher, I will aim to provide a stimulating learning environment that encourages students to trust their own opinions. I hope to motivate students in ascertaining their inner strengths and abilities by discovering what truly inspires them, while fostering confidence in order for students to realize their full potential.

I like to encourage people to pursue their potential. I hate busy-work, and try to give assignments that work on multiple levels; therefore, even if the student may not immediately see success in a trouble area, the student can be encouraged by their success in the stronger areas. I believe in tying subjects together through interdisciplinary studies. I use a method revolving around questioning and guidance, which challenges the student to be responsive, and verbally rationalize why they have come to a certain solution. This not only helps the student be engaged and active in the learning process, but also allows me to analyze the student’s thought processes.
During my time in high school, I started going to math tutoring to work on my homework. There was one fantastic teacher, and many students. When I would finish my homework, I would help others. Later, in college, I passed mat ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I was a tutor of Elementary School age children for one year, before joining the military. I am a mother of two boys, one being in the 2nd grade and am experienced in elementary level schoolwork and reading. I am extremely organized and efficient and love to help kids learn!
I love children and watching their eyes light up when understanding a certain subject brings joy to my heart. Patience is one of my strong points and I try to let the child reach thier goals in learning as independently as possible by encouraging them to work toward and answer to a question methodically and using a "figure it out" type style. On the other hand, I stay by my students side offering a shoulder to lean on, and support when struggling.

I enjoy teaching and helping others excel. I am willing to go that extra mile to get the job done and I make sure that not only a student passes but they learn along the way. I have several styles of teaching and I like to keep it interesting by changing up the way that I present the material to keep the student engaged and interested. I like for the students to participate, communicate and provide feedback. This gives me the opportunity to see what they know and what they don't know. Also it allows me to see the growth in the student, allows me to tell whether or not they are learning, and it also allows me to know what approach to take in delivering the materials on their level in which they can understand and comprehend.
I have earned a MBA degree in Business Administration and a Concentration in Human Resources and I am currently pursuing a dual MBA degree in Management Informa ... read more

From a young age I've always been interested in helping those less fortunate than myself. I've been a mentor, a tutor, a Peace Corps volunteer, and I've also worked as a Hospice volunteer. Having these broad experiences in the United States as well as abroad has helped me to garner a deeper understanding of how to communicate with people on all levels. As a Hospice volunteer I've learned the art of listening. Being a visual artist has given me the ability to approach what appears to be the most difficult of problems with the boundless energy of creativity. I've tutored those that don't speak English as their first language and I mentored children from local [Gainesville] Boys and Girls clubs while in college. While in the Peace Corps I taught basic health and wellness skills.
The best teachers that I've had and that have made the deepest impressions on me have been kind, generous w ... read more
