CLAST Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Jacksonville, FL

I enjoy teaching and working with children. While I believe that all children can learn, they do so in their own ways and at their own pace. It is the tutor’s responsibility to ensure that the student(s) understand the material. It is important to show students how one idea builds on the last. I will help your child learn the material in his/her own way. I consider myself to be patient, non-judgmental, and knowledgeable of the subject matter. I truly believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. I am very proud of the kind letters of thanks that I have received from parents of some of my students this year. 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 studen

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. 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.

My experience includes working as a Substitute Teacher for Duval County Public School for more than two years. Some of the subjects I taught included english, reading, writing, math and history. I was hired as a Paraprofessional for Alden Road Exceptional Education for a year where I assisted the teacher with special need students in Middle School. I also taught VPK for two months as a teacher helping pre-kindergartens to be prepared for elementary school. I enjoy teaching and I have taught from grades K-12 and some of the children were special need students. Working with special need students required patience with the understanding that there are different learning styles for everybody. My teaching style is to follow the curriulum that is given to me and leave time for questions to be asked by the student. I believe that if a child believes that you the teacher, has their best int

I believe all students can learn. I enjoy tutoring students one on one because it gives me an opportunity to discover their learning style. In doing so I can teach them in the way that is going to benefit them the most. I also believe it is important to show children their strengths and teach them how to use those to be successful in school. It is my goal to make a difference in the lives of the students I teach, not just in the subject that I am tutoring. I have always enjoyed working with people. This is why I chose psychology as my major in college. A short while after graduation I worked as a tutor. At The DePaul School of Northeast Florida, I was a part-time tutor. I was hired as a full time teacher at DePaul and worked there for six years. I then decided to take time off from teaching and spent three years working in social services. During my time in social services I wor

Teaching is something that is very close to my heart and I take a lot of pleasure in teaching new skills to students. I enjoy being in an environment that is conducive to learning where instruction is differentiated to meet each student individual level. I also believe that students must be engaging in the learning process, something that will eventually facilitate the understanding of each student. Having served as a substitute teacher for the last four years, I have developed a passion for working with children of all ages. Not only have I earned a bachelor degree in political science, but I am also an adaptive polyglot who is able to relate and understand other people's culture.

I enjoy working with people from all ages. I truly believe that education is the key ingredient to anyone's success. The source of my efforts comes from a part of me that truly desires the success of others. I am one who wishes to attain the highest level of satisfaction at any task that I perform. Therefore, I desire that anyone whom I assist will receive the same level of guaranteed satisfaction. Everyone learns at their own level and at their own pace, and I am willing to meet anyone where he or she is at and bring them to the next level. As a recent graduate of Florida State College at Jacksonville, I have attained several skills which are needed to assist others. I have tutored fellow college students and assisted students with the production of well written essays and research papers.

I have a bachelor's degree in Biology from Florida State University. Also, I have a valid State of Florida Professional Educator's Certificate (Biology/Science). I have taught Biology full-time in recent years, and have also substituted in classes as varied as language arts, math, history, art - you name it. I have taught many ESE (special Ed) kids.

Well, teaching one or a small group is quite different from teaching large classes. When tutoring, it's especially important to be a good listener and observer, to help pinpoint the student's needs and target areas to strenghten. When I see a student "getting it" (absorbing a new concept or mastering something for the first time) I do feel satisfaction. I do have patience, and I relate well to establish a rapport w

In high school I served as a big sister, and that's when I gained my passion for kids, and the importance of educating others. That experience led me to apply for a service scholarship which I earned to attend Florida State University. In college I volunteered at a local elementary school, following a group of students as their tutor until I graduated college. This service led to the beginning of my teaching career in Broward County. I sponsored an after school step team, and served as a team leader. I worked part-time through an SES provider as a trainer, training the teachers in math. I later returned to Jacksonville after the death of my father, deciding to move closer to my mother. A good description of my teaching style sould be very descriptive, and easy to follow. I break down the math into a series of steps, and practice them until they are mastered. For the students

I teach children how to learn through discovery and hands on activities when applicable. I believe all children have great potential and my goal as an educator is to help students find ways around their challenges to reach those potentials.

This process has a greater retention rate.My philisophy is that everyone is a learner and has the potential for success. Learners discover the a hah when they take ownership for the learning process.
