Portuguese is one of my top subjects! fluent

I've helped teachers at school tutor other students for service hours and am able to deal with people of all ages really well. I speak Portuguese as a first language and also speak a bit of Spanish. I've graduated high school with honors and would be happy to help with any thing I have knowledge in.
The way you teach someone depends on who it is. Everyone learns differently.

More About This Tutor...

I recently graduated with the highest honors from the University of Florida. I double-majored in economics and international relations with a minor in business administration, giving me both strong analytical and writing skills. I learned to communicate effectively through writing research papers and creating oral presentations. I have also taken math through calculus, English, biology, and chemistry at the college level and feel comfortable tutoring high school students in these areas. I have previous experience giving private English lessons to Brazilians, both in the states and in Brazil. My students ranged from beginners to advanced when I began working with them. I prepared oral and written course work tailored to their skill level, with special attention to typical problem areas for Portuguese speakers.
I feel that the relationship formed between tutor and student is as ... read more

I have always loved to tutor. While attending NSU, I volunteered to tutor in the Student Center. Before moving to Florida, I tutored Elementary School children in all subjects in Brazil. I also tutored High School students during Summer School both here in Florida and in Brazil.
I love tutoring. I believe that everyone learns in different ways. I am energetic, easy going, and I try to make learning fun by playing games whenever possible and making up rhymes to assist in record retention. I connect with each student and really strive to understand and expand their learning style to maximize their potential.

A Little Bit About Me...

I first assess the child's knowledge (test them) and their study routine. Following, I create an individualized plan of study for him/her. What material does the child enjoy? How would he/she like to study? My goal is to create a fun learning environment therefore the child retains the information and wants to continue to learn. Games, pneumonic, songs, dice, cards, etc. are a part of my teaching style.
I tutored a 10 year boy in all subjects for about 2 years Monday through Friday which was a fantastic experience; he is now at Baylor University in Texas. I substituted 5th and 6th grade and tutored one-on-one students whom required additional assistance. I recently tutored the FCAT curriculum to students ages 8-15 as well as foreign students and a child with ADHD. The positive feedback from the parents and students has made this position enjoyable.
