I have taught both children and adults private piano lessons. I taught history and other subjects for 2 1/2 years as a daily and long-term substitute teacher in secondary schools. For one year I directed a public library story-time program for preschool children. I worked two years as a middle school Library Media instructor. I wrote curriculum and taught computer literacy for four years in a prison GED program. My undergraduate and graduate degrees conferred honors. I enjoy writing, and I completed a short story correspondence course with Writer's Digest. A science fiction zine published one circa 1997.
All learning starts with a question, both by teacher and student alike. My role is both as teacher (coach and guide) and student (questioner). I should employ a variety of questioning techniques to better understand strengths and weaknesses, then prescribe remedies tailored f ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As an educator my teaching style is very laid back and easy going. I like my students to use there own knowledge to search for a solution while I give them a little bit of guidance. My non-threatening approach tends to win over students and helps them feel relax and not fear to ask questions. My goal is to improve all students in the areas of math and help them feel more comfortable when they encounter it on there own.
While attending Florida A&M University I always had a passion for Mathematics, therefore my first year I took Honors Calculus I and received a grade of a 'B'. From that point I completed my Bachelor degree in Computer Information Systems and took my passion in math and began to work on my MEd in Secondary education. During that time I had the opportunity to substitute students in 6-12 grade in two different counties. I also completed my student teaching experience at ... read more

More About This Tutor...

The first year of teaching... Nothing could have taught me more about teaching or myself than this past year. My teaching style was solidified; my confidence in classroom management was grounded; and my teacher judgment was clarified. I am a gentle teacher, but not timid. I establish rapport by loving and respecting my students, first and foremost. It is important that they trust me before they can learn from me. I like to teach with the same enthusiasm for every concept and idea I present, as if each were the neatest thing I've ever heard. My goal is to equip and excite the students, and then draw them in, so they can take charge of the exploration. I encourage my students to think more critically, to imagine more vividly, to communicate more intentionally, and overall, to push themselves to create a better product than they thought was their best.
I have been tutoring for as long ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I love working with children of all ages. I really like elementary age children. I have a hands-on approach to education. I want kids to get their hands into activities so that they may retain things longer. Now I do realize that not every student is hands-on. That is the responsibility of a teacher or tutor to find out what works for each student and set the envioronment for each learning experience.
I taught public school for 4 years before getting a masters degree in Religious Education with a Concentration in Childhood Education. I wanted to complement my undergraduate Elementary Education degree. Therefore, I choose the childhood education concentration at seminary. Then I was a Assoicate Pastor for Children for over 13 years where I supervised paid workers and planned activities for a children's ministry at a local church. I had to maintain a budget for this ministry ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My unique experiences have provided me with invaluable teaching experience which has shaped my teaching style. The pedagogical approach I utilized in ESL teaching called “teaching English through English” has resulted in my highly creative, adaptive, and practical approach. I not only teach the material, but also teach problem-solving techniques to enable the students to apply their knowledge to every-day life. I approach students with enthusiasm; all children are able to learn, and learn successfully! I don’t see myself as an ultimate authority, but as a facilitator of learning. Most importantly, I approach teaching with patience and commitment, as well as a true desire to see all my students meet and even exceed their own expectations.
While living overseas in both Ukraine and Mexico I taught ESL through a non-profit organization for 4 1/2 years. In addition to teaching beg ... read more

I believe that every student can learn if I can adequately gauge what their abilities and intelligences are. Utilizing the multiple intelligences theory, my first session with my student will be concentrating on getting to know them as a worker and a person. I feel their outside experiences have just as much contribution as their classroom experiences. Your child and I, during this first session, will conduct a meet and greet of sorts and I will then map out an education success plan for them. It's through their needs and their cognitive abilities that I feel any student can be successful, and become a productive member of society.
I come from a public school background with an emphasis in higher learning and was twice selected as an AP Scholar with Honors for my work in the AP program. I am currently in the process of earning a Bachelors of Science in English Education with an emp ... read more

I graduated from Duke University with a Ph.D. in music in 1997. Since then, I have taught and advised students at a number of colleges and universities in North Carolina and Michigan. I have created or helped to create curricula (both music and English composition) and have implemented it in the classroom. I have also assisted students in charting out their courses of study, having worked with all levels of students from freshman and sophomores through doctoral candidates. I have a keen interest in education and have spent the majority of my adult life involved with higher learning, either as a student or professor. My education, teaching and composing careers demonstrate that I am quite effective at setting, planning and achieving both long- and short-range goals and in my attention to detail

A Little Bit About Me...

I do not have much experience in teaching and tutoring, but I would love to earn the experience. I am quite versed in classical literature and archaeological advancements. I have also learned to write research papers and essays well, so I have great grammatical skills. I know grammar well and can teach it with ease.
I think I could be a considerate teacher. I listen well to what others have to say and ask, and I get my point across in a concise manner. I can work with small children and teenagers.

I have been working with youth for over ten years. As a private music instructor and substitute teacher I have had the opportunity to work with students K-12 with a wide array of abilities. During the school year of 2009-2010 I was a para-professional in a Kindergarten PDD class (pervasive development disorder/autism) where I helped administer IEP directed lessons for 8 children on the spectrum. I have developed lesson plans for both my private students and the music production programs I've directed for the past 4 years. I have subbed in all subjects and can compensatory teach/tutor in Math, English, History, and Science at an elementary and middle school level.
I really enjoy teaching and working with students and continue to develop new ways to make learning fun and engaging. Focusing on each student independently, I differentiate instruction based on each individual's lear ... read more

The teachers who continue to influence me and affect my day-to-day life are those who had a genuine passion for teaching and a contagious love for their subject. They were the best teachers, not only because they possessed the necessary knowledge, but because they were animated and caring and able to cater to students' needs. I believe all children can be made to see the benefits of education through the right teaching methods. If there is anything I do not know, I am able to research and learn about it independently. The most memorable teachers did not always know the answer, but they always knew where to find it or how to help the students find it. I take these lessons to heart and hope to use them to help others.
I have always found myself adept at teaching. I have a great deal of patience and a genuine fondness for instruction. As a journalism major from UF, I gain ... read more

I enjoy working with children. I am a very patient person and I understand that children learn in different ways through various techniques. I feel that as a tutor I have to have a good understanding of the philosophy of education. Learning to children needs to be taught in interesting ways because a lot of children learn through interesting teachings, and or surroundings. At the end of my teaching I want the child to remember me and the techniques that I have taught them to learn and want to go throughout their life eager to learn new things. I want my students to be successful and proud of themselves.
As graduating with a degree in the Psychology field I have come to understand children better. I understand that all children can learn, but there are different techniques in teaching that a teacher may have to use from child to child. Being a tutor you get to understand each chi ... read more

The thing I love most about teaching is opening up someones eyes to something new and seeing the "wow" look on their faces. Sometimes certain subject matter is not always easy for a person to learn. I've always appreciated the teacher that went out of their way with a great amount of patience to make sure I understood. I take a lot from the amazing teachers I've had and would hope to be able to pass that on.
I began my higher education at Tallahassee Community College in 1997. After receiving my AA Degree I transferred to F.S.U where I majored in Criminology with a minor in Spanish and graduated in 2003. Since that time, I've worked as a legal assistant/paralegal with different law firms in town. Recently, I decided to return to school and received my certificate in Massage Therapy.

Learning has always been my goal. The hope of understanding is the light which illuminates this dark abyss of bureaucracy, strange smells and seeming disorder. I have read ceaselessly, watched ravenously, pondered to no end; a mind which never sleeps but continues seeking. I was Valedictorian of my middle school and graduated from FSU magna cum laude, but these are hot air to me; decorations. A's in school are just a by-product. I seek the real thing, which may not be found in this lifetime, in these bodies, with these minds, but I seek it anyway.
Throughout my existence I have found myself in the role of teacher. Whether it be academic or physical, I have been blessed with keen abilities, as well as an ease in communicating ideas. This, I believe, stems from a need to comprehend not just the action of something, but the reason for that action as well. By this, often I am able to s ... read more

In the process of achieving a bachelors of Science degree in Psychology I spent time working in a lab as well as being a lead counselor in a private after school program. In the school, my duties ranged from helping with homework to planning structured activates. I also feel that I made a positive impact on the children and established excellent rapport with the parents. Through my studies I have gained an understand of science and good writing skills. As stated before, I have also taken part in lab and an experiment setting. Here I have gained valuable skills with people, data entry, trial and error, and multi-tasking in an educational setting. In the past I have tutored in Psychology, Spanish, basic Science, elementary mathematics and writing.
