Better academics combined with more fun is the goal.

I have helped friends (and their children) to prepare for exams since when in high school I won various awards for my performance on exams. I won the top score for the Regents exam for Duval County in 1971 and for this I was recognized by the downtown Rotary Club. Also I won the top statewide scholarship award for the Chamber of Commerce and for the N.H.S. due to performance on exams. Also I won the Merit Scholarship award. I have only recently started to do tutoring for pay. Over the years I have helped my children, my grandchildren, and friends and others to prepare for exams ranging from kindergarten phonics up to and beyond SAT exams.
I consider it my duty to do what it takes to make the tutoring FUN for the person being tutored.

More About This Tutor...

As a former active duty Army soldier and non-commissioned officer with over 20 years experience, I have taught and trained military personnel in various technical fields and specialty areas. I have over 15 years experience as an immediate supervisor and/or mid-level manager of soldiers. I have taught people in a classroom environment, as well as in an outdoor setting.
My preferred teaching style is up front and personal with students. However, I am highly familiar with "online" correspondence, via the computer or internet. I totally believe in having thorough knowledge of the required subject prior to teaching. I also enjoy working with children. I am a father of two young children (ages 10 months and 7 years), and I enjoy taking the time to cultivate their ability to read and comprehend.

After graduation with my BSEE, I have been trying out employment in the Engineering field. My math and physics skills have become the front-runners in my tutoring career. This past summer, I tutored students attending Boston University and Boston College in Allston and Brighton, Massachusetts. The areas of tutoring that I offered were: Math - All calculus, Linear Algebra, Ordinary Differential Equations. Science - Physics I, II, Statics/Dynamics. Engineering - Circuits, Control Theory (Linear and State-Space), Microprocessors, and C, C++, Verilog programming.
Mostly I prefer relating abstract concepts to everyday life. I believe if a student can parallel course material with events that occur in his or her life then he or she will always remember the concept and have a deeper understanding of it.

I enjoy teaching children the fundamental aspects of any subject, and delight in witnessing the brightening of that child's comprehension of the subject. I am a firm believer that every child harbors their own level of 'genius', and is capable of learning to their maximum potential. I believe every child deserves a chance to achieve at the height of their capability, provided they are given the chances and the educational tools for success in an encouraging, nurturing environment. I hope that the remainder of my career is utilized as the impetus for those achievements.
As a former corporate manager and full-time mother, I received a BA in Theatre Arts and a MSW in Clinical Social Work in hopes of working with children and young adults in low socio-economic environments. I relinquished my job as a clinical social worker, and began tutoring elemenatary-aged students in 2004. I beca ... read more

i enjoy sharing my knowledge with others. In order to do that I make use of all resources available to me including: various forms of technology, websites, and ideas from other knowledgable teachers. Every child has their own unique learning style and it is up to the educator to deliver the material in a way that the child can understand the concept and then be able to apply the newly learned material. I have used direct instruction, modeling, large group, partnerships and small cooperative groups in the classroom with success. I utilize Vinn Diagrams; Read, Talk, Write & Check strategy; KWL Charts and projects to assure student understanding of a concept or idea.
The College of Education and Human Services at the University of North Florida has a very rigorous education program. As a student and a substitute teacher I have completed over 1000 hours in and educational setting; this ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I entered the teaching field through alternative certification and have since received certification in elementary education and ese k-12. I have attended various training opportunities in both math and science. I am now the lead math teacher for my school.
My teaching style is very relaxed and student driven. I believe that children learn more when they have input in the curriculum. I develop great relationships with my students by showing that I care about them and their lives outside of school. I communicate with parents regularly through class email lists and a class web site. I try to be clear and concise about what I expect and I hold every student to the expectations.

My teaching style is predicated on the belief that children truly want to learn. I like to introduce the goal or goals for today. Ask a few questions regarding ysterdays assignment and see if the class will bridg the two by itself. I believe that a class os students wiling to learn need only slight direction each day. I always have a full lesson plan in tow, but i find the class rarely needs me to rely on it. The students' hunger for knowledge always seems to be motivation enough to keep them moving forward through the blackboard jungle.
I have always been a tutor looking back. My friends were always asking for help with their homework. I enjoyed helping them. When their parents learned that I was a godo tutor, I found myself helping my friends' little brothers and sisters with their schoolwork. It made me feel goood inside--- stil does. I guess teaching is in my blood. I enjoyed ... read more

Matthew W. Gilbert Middle School - Duval County, Florida This was a certified teaching position of Science in Duval County Public Schools System. My primary role was instruction of Comprehensive Science I to the entire sixth grade, over 175 students! Each day, I provided quality instruction, leadership, and motivation to “challenged” students generally of the ages 11-13. Working in a Title I, “Challenged School”, such as Gilbert, provides a high level of experience working in a fast paced, constantly changing, data-driven environment. This has enhanced my ability to gather, analyze, report, and manage data.

I love teaching and working with young minds. I believe anyone can learn and meet his or her potential if he or she is given the opportunity. I am patient, easy going, and considerate to the needs of the learner. I hope to make a difference in a student's life and I am available to help you find academic success.
As a graduate of Southwestern College, I was very much driven by a high level of excellence in education. While on active duty in the military, I completed my BS in Human Resource Development and I received Magna Cum Laude honors. I have learned extensive grammatical skills due to writing research papers and reports in various areas of study. During the last eight years of my military career I have counseled Sailors in pursuing a college education and tutored several of these same Sailors in English and mathematics.

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 education. Near the end of this time, I felt that the best use of my talents and experience would be in the classroom helping to build a better society through the young people who cross that threshold. I spent three years in Hawaii and the San Francisco Bay area teaching 7th and 8th grade learning handicapped, emotionally disturbed, and autistic students. through all of these years I have also tutored students ranging from inner city broken homes to Ivy League geared people.
I have found that the best way to teach is to be f ... read more
