A Little Bit About Me...

I believe every student has their own style of learing. I am very much a visual learner and utilize this style. Many students, though, are tactile learners and/or find their attention is kept using computers. I love discovering what type of learner each child is. I like to always be positive and instill in my students that they can accomplish anything we just have to work together and discover their "niche". Seeing a child grow and succeed is my greatest reward.
I have earned a Bachelor's Degree in Social Work and have worked extensively with and for children including a Case Manager at Clay County Behavioral. I have always wanted to be a teacher so earned my Teaching Certification through St. John's River Community College in ESE and Pre-K through 3rd Grade. I have been a teacher's assistant at Wilkinson Elementary in the Trainable/Profoundly Handicapped class and am now in ... read more

Extremely patient, cool tutor wanting to help you

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.

I earned my bachelor degree in literature because I love to read and want to share that love with my students. Five of my seven years of teaching have been in the middle school realm, with two years being in the capacity of a Reading Coach, which allowed me the flexibility of teaching children and adults in a classroom setting. I have taught using the Sunshine State Standards with focus on reading strategies which help students with comprehension and vocabulary. I have also taught writing skills/strategies to eighth grade students in preparation for FCAT testing. I have tutored students in a variety of subjects such as elementary mathematics, reading skills for social studies, science, and fiction, English, and organizational skills.

I love to see the look in students’ eyes when I help them understand a concept or when their discovery light turns on. I believe all students are capable of learning provided they put forth an earnest effort. I also have a teacher’s insight and know what skills are important for your child to learn that will be valuable throughout their life of learning. I know when a child needs to be encouraged and challenged in order to reach his or her full potential. As a parent of two young boys, I understand your passion of wanting your child to excel. As an educator, I am ready to help you take your child to another learning level that will last a lifetime.

My passion for education allows me to meet students at their point of need. I strongly believe that all students are capable of learning, while everyone doesn’t learn the same way. Goal setting and establishing study techniques are essential as we utilize individual strengths and weaknesses, as tools to accomplish the highest level of academic achievement.
I take great pleasure in working with students at the elementary and secondary level. I have earned a B.S. in Liberal Studies, with a Minor in Criminal Justice. During the last eight years, I’ve taught and tutored students in: Math, Language, Science, and Geography. I’ve had opportunity to assist with large projects.

My greatest teaching philosophy (though I cannot claim it to be original), is "Can't never could!" This is such an important concept, for students as well as their teachers and tutors. Without belief in the student on the part of the teacher or tutor, I feel that a student is more likely to fail. I believe in optimistic approaches and positive reinforcement in the teaching process. This tremendously helps a student succeed. I understand that it is not always possible for a student to gain understanding of a concept in one sitting. Every child should be given opportunities for expansion and growth. I will help every child I work with in every way I can towards their goals.

My teaching style consist of explaining the information, asking open ended questions and re-explaining the information again. If I notice the student is having trouble answering the questions then I use a different teaching approach. I try to relate the questions to something the person has experienced in his/her culture.
Since 1988 I have taught or tutored various levels of students from primary to secondary grade levels. As a student that always excelled (Member of Phi Theta Honor Society, Honor graduate, Raines Scholar, Who's Who Among High School Students, AP student, Vice-President of the National Junior Honor Society) I found it easy to help others understand concepts they may have missed during class. Most of the tutoring I did was due to a concerned parent asking for my assistance. One example was a young lady that I tutored during the summer. She had trouble during t ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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.
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.

More About This Tutor...

I believe in teaching using the three learning methods- aural, visual and kinesthetic because I understand that each student's needs are different. I like to use examples, lecture, project work, teamwork and written assignments.
I began teaching and tutoring as a high school student. Those subjects included music and computers. I continued after receiving my bachelor's degree. I taught mostly in areas related to my field such as- digital video, film, music, computer op, writing, research methods and even digital video game creation. I've taught continuously, ages 2 through college, for the past 2.5 years.
