Professional, Experienced, Passionate Teacher and Tutor

I believe that all students can and will achieve academic success given appropriate instruction; i.e., instruction that is differentiated according to students' specific needs, learning styles, interests, and personal goals. As a classroom teacher and as a personal tutor, I have seen almost miraculous results in a relatively short period of time, both in terms of academic achievement and student confidence. Passion and enthusiasm for learning is contagious, and I am a carrier. For a dedicated instructor, nothing is more satisfying than watching a student "catch" the learning bug.
After attending (and teaching in) a graduate program in American/British Literature and Language at L.S.U., I realized that my true calling was teaching. I began teaching English, Journalism, S.A.T. Prep., Latin, and other subjects in Springfield, MA in 2003 in an alternative, urban high school. I t ... read more

I try to bring a combination of educational and professional experience to every session to allow people to understand the world around us.
My name is Perry Miles. I have quite a bit of experience tutoring and have attended some of the best schools in the country. I went to the Newhouse School (at Syracuse University) and studied broadcast journalism to get my bachelors Degree before earning my Masters in Health Informatics from USF Tampa this past December. Since I have moved from the Northeast to Florida, I have been able to help students prepare for the school year and improve grades in all areas. I try to combine my educational background with my professional experience to interest the students and help them apply knowledge.

My experience, (both academic and work)has been widely varied, ranging from research and engineering to financial management in a corporate environment, followed by golf course design and landscape management. In addition I used my experience in construction and woodworking to build and market patio furniture. Unfortunately the housing depression of the mid 2000's caused the business to be non profitable and was closed. Since 2005 I have been semi retired and used my construction experience to work at a lumber and hardware store.

A Little Bit About Me...

Tutoring is not my part-time job, it is a full time endeavor. I tutor in many subjects including Elementary, Middle and High School curriculums. I tutor all ages. By working with my students, their parents and teachers, we formulate a plan and goals for our sessions. Sometimes I am a tutor for a test, or a coach for a project or a study skills adviser. I have experience working with students with ADHD and those with specific learning issues and IEP's.

Teachers,as well as students, need to take responsibility for their actions. I have always given 100 percent to my students, and I expect students to give their all in return. I understand all too well, however, that many students suffer from disabilities which interfere with their educations. I have taken that understanding under consideration when instructing. I love more than anything a student who thanks me for my influence or teaching ability; I love more than anything opening a world of learning in a student.
Holding a BA in English Education, I graduated valedictorian from my college. During my formal years of education, I worked as a tutor for the Manchester, N.H. School District. After graduation, I obtained seventh-grade teaching position. After three years, I obtained an English teaching position in an academy, where I taught the following courses for seven years: Bri ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is serious, but fun. I want students to know that I care about their success and believe they are capable of doing great things. I am a very caring, very patient teacher. I like to build motivation in my students, as well as a desire to become a life-long learner. I teach many learning strategies, but emphasize students to learn how to activate these strategies at the right time.
I am very passionate about my profession and take it seriously, but still make learning fun. I taught two years of Intensive Reading and worked with students who scored a level 1 on Reading FCAT. My students made remarkable gains on their scores, many earned a grade-level score in Reading on the next test. I have also taught elementary and high school students as a tutor and test prep coach. I enjoy working with students of all ages and helping them reach their goals and succeed.

As a person with a Bachelors degree and masters, I feel as though I am fully qualified to teach in numerous areas. I always excelled in subjects in high school, undergraduate courses and my master's level classes.
Teaching to me comes quite easy. I have a great way of making sure the student fully understands all concepts and can apply them to any question or problem that the student may see in the future. I will adjust my learning techniques to fit the student to ensure the student is learning at an optimal level.

With the Sarasota County School Board I was a contractual educator / substitute teacher. Educating all levels of students and curricula K-12. Focusing on proactive and interactive methods of teaching. Instilling praise vs. critism and encouraging full student participation. The students responded very well to this method and were able to excell in their assignments. Being an educator is one of the most rewarding experiences; It is one of the only professions where I felt that I was contributing, adding value and making a positive difference. There is nothing more rewarding than knowing that my contribution made a positive difference is someone's life.
I have earned both my BS in Marketing and MBA/MHA. In my MBA/MHA program, from the Sawyer School of Management at Suffolk University, was awarded Beta Gamma Sigma for High Honors. As a graduate student I was a TA for my Organiz ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I taught public school in Florida from K-12 for the last 16 years. I taught for more than 10 years in the private school. I am still teaching part-time at a private company. My passion for teaching and the diverse subjects and levels of students that I have taught are two of my great assets that can be very useful in the tutoring profession. I teach to help my student reach his or her highest potential.
Depending on the subject I use a highly academic and focussed style of teaching. If it is communication like English, Writing and Journalism , I use a lot of teacher-generated materials. I am very flexible and would like to meet the needs of a particular student by administering some kind of a skill inventory survey to identify his or her style of learning. An inventory of his interests and skills will also be a good tool for me to assess the student's strength ... read more

Even though I have been very active in the performing arts, teaching is my primary passion. I received a Bachelors and Masters Degree in Music from the College-Conservatory of Music of the University of Cincinnati. However, I completed a Ph.D. in Education at the University of Florida in 1990. I was a full-time special needs teacher at Oak Park School in Sarasota, Florida from 1998 until 2006. I was responsible for teaching elementary, middle school, and high school grade levels. It was a very rewarding job and gave me experience in many different areas in education. Since retiring from Oak Park I have spent a considerable amount of time tutoring in several different areas, including English, history, and math.
I firmly believe that all children are capable of learning and are entitled to an atmosphere that is most conducive to the learning process and their individual needs. ... read more

It is my experience that students do better in smaller groups with more individual attention, which in turn helps me to get a better understanding of how to move forward. I've started at the phonics level in this regard, where patience and understanding is key. I like to maintain a relaxed teaching environment, though I like to keep things moving along.
In regards to experience, I'd taught in a middle school as a Reading Specialist, as a member of the Americorps national service program. During my term, I'd implemented a measurable reading workshop and organized two school-wide literacy events, recruiting over twenty local media personalities to guest read. I have a degree in English from the University of Kentucky, and I have vast experience in document authorship, including both literary and technical compositions.

My teacher style reflects my strong beliefs in interaction and relevance as the keys to successful learning. Moreover, teaching in a wide variety of settings has instilled in me the importance of personal attention to the whole student. Professor John Rassias developed the Rassias Method (R)to rapidly teach language to Peace Corps volunteers. It engages the students on a logical, emotional and interpersonal level immediately, mimicking the immersion environment of real international settings to the greatest degree possible. While this level of instruction is the ideal, I have dealt with the most fundamental and challenging situations of homesick students and young people with serious challenges in their personal lives. Such challenges are primary needs, and the pursuit of mastery never overshadows such concerns in my instruction

I have experience teaching developmentally disabled adults how to read as well as art therapy. I am currently a tutor for the Sarasota School District and am level II pre-screened. As a graduate in the field of Liberal Arts, Arts and Letters, I have studied a wide array of subjects. I am comfortable tutoring children (as I do now 1-5) as well as young adults or adults preparing for the GED or SAT. I excel in all subject areas, however I have no experience in trigonometry or calculus. I have studied fine arts, humanities, biology, creative writing (have written two soon to be published books) as well as statistics and I speak fluent Spanish.
My teaching style is associative. I believe in visual cues as well as personal associations/visualization in order to learn and remember material. I possess excellent study habits that I believe I could convey/transfer to students. I fin ... read more

I am a passionate educator with five years of teaching experience ranging from middle school through high school. I have three years of administrative experience in a K-8 program. During my tenure I was responsible for writing curriculum and assisting teachers with implementation. My area of strength is literacy. I am a reading teacher first and know how to effectively diagnosis a child’s reading deficiency and create a plan of action to assist the child to become a better reader. I am fluent in mathematical concepts through Algebra II and have strong creative writing skills.
I am a true believer that in order to effectively teach a child you must know the child’s learning style. Some children are visual learners while others are auditory. This method of teaching is essential in the tutoring aspect. I am a practitioner of culturally responsive teaching, which uses the cultural know ... read more

I am passionate about all students having an equal opportunity to learn. I believe all children can and will learn if given the right environment. I empower and encourage students through many different strategies. Making learning fun and exciting is often the tool that is missing in the classroom as well as differentiated instruction. Students learn though discovery and using all senses. I incorporate music as well since it has power to change moods and make connections in learning. I inspire students to make a difference in their own lives by empowering them to achieve success.
As a graduate of Florida State University I always have had a passion for music and education. I have earned a BS and MS in Specific Learning Disabilities, Varying Exceptionalities, and English Speakers of Other Languages. I have always had a desire to work with students who have difficulties learni ... read more
