I enjoy tutoring one-on-one or in group settings. When I tutor individual students, I take a lot of time teaching the subject and answering questions. But I also like making students enjoy what they are learning. I can do that because I am patient yet fun. Because I am young, I am able to relate to students in a way that older, more strict teachers cannot. I am not just their tutor, but I am also their friend. The best questions are asked when a student feels comfortable with their tutor. I believe with focus, there can also be fun! When I was in high school, I was in advanced math programs. At that time, my father was taking math at the local community college. I began tutoring him in math when I was seventeen. My father’s friend who was also taking the class was blind and he needed help with his math homework. No one at the community college could help him, so I spent a few

Teaching is fun and satisfying. When I work with students I challenge them as much as I can, because I have found that students not only step up to the challenge, but exceed my expectations. I like to reward the students I work with, give constant encouragement, and let the students know how much I appreciate their attention and willingness to learn and change. When I tutored Algebra and Spanish I would go through multiple examples with the students, and then encourage them to look back at their notes or in the book when doing problems on their own. I found that once they felt like they figured out the questions on their own they had much more confidence. When I worked with students who wrote for me at the newspaper, I would sit down with them and re-edit their articles and say why I was making changes out loud and encourage the students to ask me any questions about the changes I made

After completing a special project in the University working with children, I realized that my purpose in life was to nurture and educate children. Through education, I am able to not only raise certainty and self-esteem, but also prepare our younger generation academically for a successful and promising future. By observing and evaluating what your child needs to accomplish academic goals, I am able to provide that special attention and hands-on experience to help him/her achieve effective learning. An important ingredient that I use in successful teaching is to provide the child with study skills and tools along with vocabulary building for future academic success, those that he/she will take and use for the rest of their lives. At Florida International University, I earned my Bachelor's Degree in Health Science and used that knowledge to complement my professional experience as a 6th

In college I was involved in various groups and activities. Being a member of numerous sports teams, we would tutor the local elementary and high school children. When I wasn’t in season I still continued this as a way to broaden my horizons. I have tutored elementary, high school and university levels. I have been active in numerous sports camps for children in which I was able to lead and teach them ways to better themselves. I’m a firm believer in confidence and that if you can teach a child to be confident in what they do, there is no end to what they can accomplish. I enjoy working with people and helping them better themselves. I had a hard time learning to read when I was younger and I was blessed to have a great tutor to overcome my problems. I will never forget the passion and dedication that she showed me when no one else would. I remember that experience while I'm help

For one year in Colombia I taught Finance to students seeking a bachelor's in finance at the Technical Institute (UCATED).

I try to empathize, always respect and do my utmost to be motivating towards the people I' m working with. I see the experience as two-way and thus, a team work advancement process where everybody wins. It' s when I start to get this kind of feedback that things really start to move along. I've been banking on my management experience since even before graduation, trying and, I believe, to a certain extent, succeeding in professional life through relevant usage. Over the past five years I have tutored English, Maths, General Science and other subjects.

I primarily offer tutorial services to students in the humanities with particular emphasis on organizational skills as they affect classroom success. Mindful of the wide-ranging research in cognitive styles, learning differences and more recently, multiple intelligences, I make every effort to suit a student’s learning style. I will refer to evaluation reports, educational plans and any anecdotal information that may be useful in servicing our clients. I tutor on site and after school. I believe success is not an end product; rather it is a continuous progression. Student achievement is measured by qualitative, ongoing performance, as well as quantitative indicies. The goal of my educational mediation is to help students organize and manipulate content so as to successfully contribute to their learning. I have tutored in a variety of subjects for over eight years. I graduated Mag

When a student is experiencing difficulty learning a subject, a tutor is invaluable. I engage the student's participation, so it's an ongoing teaching-demonstration, student-solving interaction and progression. One benefit of the demonstrator's personal style is to encourage the student to ask for help more than once to clear the confusion. I am patient and I have a well-rounded education that allows me to bring knowledge, humor, and success to the student. I tutored youths and adolescents for the South-East Asian Center in general areas. I also helped many college students in math and science. I have experience working with troubled teens at St Mary's Hospital in the psychiatric unit.

I use a style of teaching for people who do not like the subject but know they need it. I show through practical examples how to get through the formulas to get through the test while making sure a detailed understanding of the concepts are being grasped. I would try to put each problem into an example they could relate to. In every case, there is something that student is passionate about, it was my job to find out what that something was and relate the problem to something they were comfortable with. I received my BSEE from the UF and my MBA from FIU. There was a lot of mathematics, Physics with Calculus and Chemistry involved. My college job was teaching Calculus. After my MBA, I went to work in the Finance department. This gave me a detailed understanding of how the accounting and finance departments were setup in a large company.
