I adapt my style of tutoring based on the needs of the student.
-I have been tutoring successfully for the past four years, aiding not only colleagues in their desire to obtain optimal grade point averages, but also kids with ages ranging from kindergarten to 12th grade. -I have tutored kids towards end of year exams and have turned desperate situations into passing grades. -I received a 1390/1600 SAT score and did not take the ACT.

Experienced Tutor

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 ... read more

I am a student-athlete tutor during regular school semesters at the University of South Carolina, where I attend college, tutoring in a variety of subjects.

I was a volunteer tutor at Mali Vai Washington Kid's Foundation in Jacksonville, Florida, and also at Waverly Afterschool Program in Columbia, South Carolina. I excelled at standardized testing and feel very confident in my ability to tutor that as well.

My comments on tutoring PSAT : Mastering the PSAT is critical in preparing for the SAT. Knowing the skills and strategies is what I will teach you, and coach you to improve all aspects of your verbal skills.

Having been tutor at Huntington Learning centers and a private tutor, I excel at one on one tutoring relationships. It is essential to understand the level of competence of the student and moving from that to gradual improvement of skills. Each student is an individual, with unique views and talents; therefore, each expresses their views in unique ways. It is my job to nurture these views to their ultimate expression.
Starting as an English major, and working as a tutor for Huntington Learning Centers, I have always loved working with students of all levels in the English language - in all its facets: from grammar to style. At a time when proper use of the language is increasingly rare (but required to master tests) it is a special interest of mine to promote successful language arts skills and strategies in students. Good writing can be persuasive, informative, or entertainin ... read more

Honors High School Graduate with experience in teaching

I have worked at Kumon Learning Center as a primary instructor for over a year, and have had ample experience in working with children of all ages in math and reading (teaching them the basic pronunciation of various letter sounds and words and basic mathematical concepts). I have tutored children of ages 5-12 at an English Center in Jinan, China for two weeks, and have tutored two transfer students in English on a weekly basis during my senior year in high school. I have also taught piano to adults on a volunteer basis for a month, and have had much experience in working with children in learning arts and crafts. As the vice president of Arts in Motion (a service club at our school)and a member of the Museum of Contemporary Art volunteer crew, I have worked with kids from ages 3-14 on various artistic projects.

More About This Tutor...

From my experience with my own education and in tutoring others, I realize that there is no such thing and an ignorant child. Rather, a successful student is a hard worker who often times needs a little guidance and patience. Because I am an easy-going and flexible person, I am able to connect to the child in fun and interesting ways. I try to use the same teaching techniques that helped me like flash cards, games, and better study skills. Frequently, I find that slowing down the curriculum and focusing on problem areas allow students to successfully grasp the subject matter.
Because I was fortunate enough to receive an education, I always felt compelled to give back to the community in the same way. From my years at Summerbridge (now Breakthrough Miami), I tutored elementary and middle school students in math, literature, English, science, and history. Afterwards, attending a ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I love teaching and working with children. I am patient and easy going. I believe that all children can learn. I just have to find their learning style and what motivates them. I believe in using a mixed teaching method. I try to gear my teaching to how the child learns. I also believe in testing to see where the child is at so that I know where I can drive instruction. I will do my best to reach and make a difference in the life of a child. If you like what you've read please call me.
I have fifteen years experience in education. I am very much driven to see my students succeed. I have taught English from Kindergarten to Twelfth grade. I have also taught reading, math, science and social studies. I possess strong writing and communication skills. I excel in teaching. I expect nothing but the best from myself and my students.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have found that the best way to teach is to be flexible, understand your student(s), and find out what will work best for them. Some students need more 'hands on' math and science projects, some students express themselves best through art and/or oratory, and then of course there are the readers and writers. I have learned through my professional trainings and experiences that there are ways to reach and, more importantly, expand each person's capacity to learn by allowing the best expression of their talents and abilities.
I am the son of a teacher and have therefore had the value of a good education as a part of my world view. Both of my parents are also avid readers and critical thinkers and instilled the virtues of scholastic practice. Hence, I embarked on a collegiate career that included 12 years studying philosophy, history, religion, Irish Studies, literature, and finally ... read more

I have been at Fccj for a little over two years. I have studied and mastered a variety of subjects. I am starting JU next summer to earn my BSN. I currently have my AA degree in nursing.I've spent a lot of time in the student life and leadership department that works one on one with students to help them with college success.
I would say that my teaching style varies depending onthe person I am teaching. There are several ways that people respond to in order for them to understand. I thik that everyone has a unique teaching style but still needs to be flexible in order to help the student understand.

A Little Bit About Me...

I throuroughly enjoy teaching high school and allowing my students to learn Hands-on kinesthetic learning. I am a teacher and a mother. I believe in the success of all my students, whether socially or academically.
I always enjoyed Science as a child and majored in Biology in college. My love for science carried me to the class room where I have enjoyed educating my students with passion so that my love for Biology would carry over to them. An advantage that I feel I have for the success of my students is majoring in Biology and having a great amount of experience in laboratory techniques.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a Post-Graduate student, I know the meaning of hard work that leads to success. In 2007, I have received my Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology with a minor in Criminology and currently completing my second degree in Biology. I applied my skills across a broad spectrum of science, math, behavioral studies, writing, research, and language skills. I have helped many peers in areas that were difficult for them. In 2006, I have participated in a short-termed program that provided help for grade school students struggling in classes. From that point forth, I have provided tutoring services to those that requested my help as needed.
I have experienced that everyone learns differently; some people are visual, audible, physical, or a combination. I know because I struggled in classes before. I strongly believe that "no child should be left behind" due to lack of resources or lack of u ... read more

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.

A Little Bit About Me...

When I graduated from college, I was not able to get a teaching job in Jacksonville, where I moved, so I entered a long career in sales. While working at Bellsouth Advertising & Publishing for 12 years, I was an outside sales leader, an inside sales manager, director of the marketing department, and a customer service representative. I left Bellsouth when I gave birth to my daughter, but also opened my own business, a wholesale fashion jewelry business. I ran this and also worked with a friend of mine in this business for many years. I homeschooled my daughter for two years, and most recently tutored in inner city schools for three years. I now volunteer as a tutor at an inner city housing project.
My style is to focus on what children do not know and try to explain and teach in several different ways until they "get it". I am very nurturing and positive in my approach to all c ... read more

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.
