Florida Writes Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Norcross, GA

Throughout high school and college, I have tutored various ages in a wide array of subjects. I graduated with a bachelor's degree in Psychology with a minor in Child Development. During college, I volunteered as an after school mentor/tutor for children ages 6-10. I provided them with help on their homework and created different educational activities for the children to do. These activities were designed to make learning fun and exciting and it helped the children to grasp many different concepts, especially with math and spelling. In college, I tutored my peers in different subjects including mathematics and psychology. After college, I taught preschool for a year. I have always enjoyed working with children but this was my first opportunity to teach. I find that children learn better with a hands-on approach. I tried to make sure that everything I taught the children in my class

Depending on the students aptitude my teaching style varies. I like to get to know how the student advances and think and considering those aspects i try to make them understand. I like my students to ask me a lot of questions for which i have a lot of patience. I also make my students think pro-actively by asking them a few questions just in order to develop their style of exploring ideas and looking more deep into the problem. I have an advanced degree in engineering and a vast tutoring and in-class teaching experience while being at University of Delaware. I have M.S in Electrical Engineering. Have taught college students engineering and maths courses that include calculus, physics, algebra. Have also tutored students for GRE, SAT, and GMAT. I could help students with their sciences lab assignments as well. Mathematics and Physics has been my bread and butter for the past 5 years

I love teaching and helping kids. Since both my parents are in education it something that I have always been around. My mother works with troubled children and she always says they just need people to give them a chance and a little extra time. I believe that all kids can achieve given the right circumstances. I’m patient and understanding with the children that I tutor and I try to relate each subject that I’m tutoring to their own special interests. I love the special felling I get when I know I helped a child succeed. As a Florida A & M University graduate with a B.S. in Biological and Agricultural System Engineering, I have extensive experience with various levels of math and science. I had a strong will to learn and a certain knack for explaining things while I was enrolled in college. I also have utilized extensive grammatical skills in writing research papers and essays for scho

As a public school teacher for approximately 20 years+, my experiences have been very extensive. I taught students of all abilities ranging from 1st grade to post-secondary (two-year college program). I have earned a BA degree in English and an MS degree as a Reading Specialist. My teaching experiences include instructing English, Reading, Writing, GED, Adult Education, ESL, and Early Childhood Education. As a GED instructor, I successfully taught Mathematics, Science Reading, Social studies Reading, and Algebra. During the last year, I tutored students in Reading and basic Education. Because I believe in the success of all students regardless of present levels, my students have had significant success in all areas and have gained positive feelings and confidence in themselves as life-long learners. I love children and want to impart to them a desire to keep striving for the best.

I have been working with children of all ages, from diverse backgrounds, and in a variety of environments for many years. I have been a camp counselor, swim instructor, piano teacher, and religious education teacher. I currently have been substitute teaching in grades K-12. My bachelor’s degree in English with a minor in Communication studies in addition to my current graduate work has allowed me a strong command of the English language. I am most confident teaching reading, writing, and other areas of language arts. My vast array of experiences has also allowed me comfort in teaching the basics of mathematics, science, and the arts. Being a tutor allows one to reach out and find the most personal and effective way to connect and instruct a student. My exposure to the many learning styles of students has taught me the importance of first understanding the student's learning style.

My experience in tutoring is drawn from my work as a substitute teacher and tutor, and from my professional and academic experience as well. I was a subsitute teacher for K-8 for four years. I taught a variety of subjects in both elementary and middle school including math, science, grammar, literature, social studies, general music, arts, and physical education. I also served for a year as a tutor with a church in the afterschool academy teaching Spanish and Algebra. My computer and science expertise comes from my military background as a computer network analyst. I taught several classes on radio and satellite communications, and computer operating systems. With my political science and Spanish concentrations associated with my BA, I can also tutor in social science, English (grammar and composition) and Spanish. I am a motivating, personable tutor that connects well with students

After my high school education, where I achieved A's in both core and elective math, I began teaching math at the elementary and high school level. I eventually broadened my scope and taught english and science, all part time. I went on to pursue my undergraduate degree and am now pursuing my MBA at Mercer University, Atlanta. I continue to teach as a passion whenever I get the opportunity to. My style of teaching involves interesting riddles and quizzes at the beginning of each class to prepare students. I also conduct short quizzes on a regular basis to help improve students speed. I typically include illustrations and diagrams in my teaching to enhance students understanding. I am very patient with children and I make it my responsibility to help build their confidence by determining and building on their strengths and improving on their weaknesses.

I have over 11 years of experience providing in home tutoring to individual high school, elementary school, and middle school students as well as adults for test preparation as well as for academic subject preparation. I have also had 6 years of teaching French in public school as well as having developed my own SAT curriculum and program. I am deeply passionate about having students of all learning abilities and levels succeed and am interested in developing ways to help each student showcase his or her own individual talents. I enjoy teaching students of all ages, from elementary through adults, and in all subjects. I find an interactive, Socratic teaching style in which I encourage the student to discover the answers on their own to understand why something works the way it does is a very effective approach for me rather than just lecturing, particularly for younger learners.

I believe that to get what you want in life, you simply need to help as many people get want they want in life. I am a firm believer in the abundance mentality, and if I can help a student overcome their barriers to learning then I am giving of my skills to help someone get to where they want to be. AS far as actual teaching styles go, I am demonstrative when necessary but always aiming to be more of a delegator to allow for a student to become a "learner" themselves. I have included descriptions of both styles below for you to understand their applications. Demonstrator or Personal Model Teachers who have a demonstrator or personal model teaching style tend to run teacher-centred classes with an emphasis on demonstration and modeling. This type of teacher acts as a role model by demonstrating skills and processes and then as a coach/guide in helping students develop and apply the

I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible for my students. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and a constructivist approach to learning inside my classroom and also with students I tutor. I believe all children can exceed thier dreams when given the appropriate materials to do so. A few good educators can make dreams a reality for any student. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives. As a graduate of Florida State University and a current corps member in Teach For America I am very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. My degrees, in both Political Science and Interdisciplinary Social Science, have given me insight in many areas, specifically, politics, history, hum

As early as 9th grade, I was an educator. I began to volunteer as an elementary tutor, and continued this role throughout my high school career. It was because of this experience that I attended college and majored in English with a minor in Literature & Education. In these areas I have gained many skills such as, essay writing, grammar knowledge, research and creative writing. I have tutored all subjects on the elementary level, k-12 special needs, and English. Through my educational experience thus far, I have found the method of facilitating to be a highly beneficial style of teaching. I have learned that if students take part in their learning, they will retain more information and be more confident in their abilities. These methods prove to stimulate social, emotional, physical and academic growth. I love working with children and will continue to be a positive influence in

In my experience as a tutor, I can definitely say that it is one of several enjoyable jobs that a college-graduate such as I can have. In my previous years volunteering as a Peer-Tutor, I certainly did an excellent job helping other students with their subjects especially in grasping the abstract concepts of Mathematics. Out of all the subjects I've tutored in the past, Mathematics seems to be the one that most students struggle with. That which I have done to facilitate student understanding and relationship with math is by providing very intelligible, concise, and simple explanations including demonstrations of the relationships amongst the concepts thus, facilitating the students' understanding of mathematical structures. I have chosen education as a career because I believe that education is perhaps the most important function performed in our culture, or for that matter, any culture

My first goal is to establish rapport with my student. I want all of my students to know that I am approachable, friendly and knowledgeable. I have learned that students achieve when they are engaged in the learning process. My goal is to create safe, stimulating and rewarding experiences for the student who in turn learns by actively participating in the learning process. I see myself as a facilitator more so than a "teacher". I know that each child is different and has an individual learning mode. I am committed to helping each child to experience success. Accomplishment builds self esteem which leads to courage to try new and more difficult educational challenges. I enjoy seeing children reach satisfying goals.
