PSAT Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Paisley, FL

I have eight years of tutoring experience for students ranging from second grade to high school seniors. This tutoring has been in a variety of topics, from elementary phonics to high school geometry to handwriting. I have also had experience in tutoring for standardized tests such as the SAT, ACT, and FCAT. Every student has strengths and weaknesses, and these should be determined for efficient tutoring. I believe in helping the student to learn and making sure they have the knowledge and help to understand the material themselves.

I obtained a B.S. in Biology, with a concentration in aquatic science, from Wittenberg University in 2006. During my undergraduate studies, I tutored elementary students in math and science twice a week for two years. After college, I moved into the marine science profession. In August of 2008, I started teaching High School Biology I, Earth and Space Science, and Physical Science to students in Polk County. In addition, after school hours were spent with two students taking AP Biology classes. Both students achieved a 4 or higher on their placement exams. My tutored students reported an increase in their ability to record class notes, study, and take tests. My previous tutoring experiences have included subjects such as; elementary science, elementary math, Algebra (I & II), Geometry, Pre- Calculus, Anatomy, Physiology, Biology (both College and HS level), HS Chemistry, basic w

I am currently a general music teacher at Samsula Academy, an elementary school in New Smyrna Beach, FL. I teach general music classes to students in grades K-5, as well as chorus and band. I received my Bachelor's degree from Marywood University in Scranton, PA and began my Master's studies at University of Central Florida. I currently aspire to study Irish traditional music in Ireland in the near future, and would continue to offer online tutoring services during those studies. At Samsula Academy, I offer private music lessons. I have mostly taught piano, but I also have taught trumpet, trombone, drums, flute, clarinet, saxophone, and violin. As a part of my undergraduate studies, I took methods courses in all band and orchestra instruments, so I am trained to teach most anything. I also have experience assisting in the elementary classrooms in reading, writing, and math, and preparing

I have extensive experience as a k-12 and adult teacher of all subjects (excepting advanced math and science) and as a teacher of technology to all ages, including technophobes:) I offer specific subject tutoring, as well as project-based enrichment programs tailored to a student's interest. My experience is wide-ranging. I have taught home school groups in mixed age groups, created a wilderness eco-learning program in Hawaii, and managed a computer lab for middle/high school students that also trained teachers and developed technology-based curriculum. I love to teach:)

I love teaching and I am great at it. I believe that anyone can learn anything if the information is presented in a certain matter. I have used soccer to teach math, pool to teach geometery, current event to teach history. I like to use a hands-on approach to learning. Students need to see, hear, and write information to remember it long term. They also need to understand why and believe it is important information to learn. As a Social Science teacher, I have worked with middle school and high school students. I currently teach reading at Daytona State College in the Adult Education Department. I have tutored students in the fields of social science, math, language arts, English, and job interview skills.

I have a diverse background in teaching/tutoring. I have been a high school English teacher and a substitute teacher. Also, I have tutored for agencies as well as independently. The subjects I have tutored include English, composition, mathematics, geometry, and SAT preparation. I like to use the Socratic style of teaching combined with using examples from historical and current events to convey an idea. I like for students to comprehend an idea through their own effort, guided by relevant questions from me. Finally, I want to instill in students a natural love of learning and curiosity about the world that they live in.

After graduating with a degree in Elementary Education in 2001, I taught 2nd grade for one year. As a first year teacher, I completed the Teacher Induction Program, also known as the TIP Program. Additionally, I took and passed the following state exams: Professional Ed, Elementary Ed, and Middle Grades Mathematics. A desire to to attain specific math certification arose when I relocated to a different county and accepted a position teaching middle school math. I enjoyed this position very much, but resigned upon the birth of my son. Now, I believe a position utilizing my teaching experience with flexible, afternoon hours would be an ideal fit for me. I am a teacher who realizes all students can improve if they receive motivation and instruction appropriate to their specific circumstance. I believe it is important to encourage individuality, creativity, critical thinking, and determ

I obtain a Bachelor’s degree in Speech and Language Pathology, I worked very hard to receive my B.A in a field I enjoyed learning. I also hold an Exceptional Student Education Certification K-12. I have experience with exceptional education and mainstream students. I contain many years of experience working individually with students to achieve their educational goals. Work well with accomidating others in the different learning styles. Having a hard time explaining to teachers and professors about their teaching approach made me aware of the situation. I love to teach others how to long for self motivation. I believe that anyone can learn as much as they would like if they think positive and continue to focus.

My teaching style is essentially one of motivation and entertainment. It is my contention that a motivating teacher has to be somewhat of an entertainer to ensure he or she has the undivided attention of students. I have been so successful with this teaching approach that I have been cited by "Who's Who Among America's Teachers" on four occasions for teaching excellence. I am also able to inspire students by telling them of my life's story; one in which I started out in life as a high school drop out and was able through hard work to get back on a track of objective endeavor. I am a retired Police Officer having worked for the East Orange, New Jersey police Department for 27 years. My assignment at my retirement was detective bureau commander. As a working officer, I enrolled into college and obtained three college degrees and a teaching certification. My deg

When I educate young people, I believe in allowing the class essentially teach themselves and empower them to conduct peer reviews, which does wonders for their self esteem. For adult learners, I have served as a facilitator in many different types of forums and adapted my teaching methods accordingly to my audience and what it is I am hoping to get across. I am extremely patient and am a good listener, which are attributes that I know assist me in building mutually respected and trusting relationships with my students. During my 13 years in the Navy, I have always excelled in my academics and I welcomed the opportunity to serve as a mentor to my peers as well as subordinates. I have been active in every school that my children have attended and currently work as a tutor occasionally for my sons 8th grade AVID class (math & science) at Galaxy Middle School, Deltona, FL.

I have been a substitute teacher for ten years and a classroom teacher for 10 years, most of it spent in a third-grade classroom. I have also been a home instructor for 12 students and have spent many hours in students' homes. Both Florida and Ohio have been my home, one in the city and one in the rural section of Ohio, giving me experiences with many types of people and situations. The subbing experiences exposed me to all grade levels and students. The classroom experience taught me how to relate with parents and paperwork. I am an accomplished piano player and have a great appreciation of the arts and the importance of education for a better life. Reading is my great passion in life; I believe it is the key to everything. I am very easy going. My style of teaching often makes those students that resent structure or pressure feel comfortable and relaxed enough to tackle even dif

I enjoy teaching and tutoring students because I really gain a high sense of gratitude in seeing a new level of understanding come from my students. And my teaching style is driven by this. First I attempt to teach things according to how I understand them. Second when a student doesn't understand something I think it's a waste of time to try to just repeat myself and hope they get it the second time. As Einstein said: “Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” Rather I will flip a concept around so the student can attempt to understand it differently, or draw images or make analogies to other concepts the student already understands, until there is understanding. I recently graduated from Appalachian State University with a degree in Psychology with a minor in Chemistry where I was educated to understand learning and how the human mind proces

I like to perform the tasks in front of the student and explain everything, step by step, as well as give information on why I'm doing that step. Then, if the student understands and feels comforatable performing the task, I'll let them try it with me, being there to help out as needed. I like students to be very hands on when it comes to learning. Once they feel comfortable performing their task in front of me, they can usually be on their own after that. I also encourage students to ask as many questions as possible, and there are no dumb questions. As a graduate of Purdue University, I have earned a bachelor's in chemistry. My chemistry degree is also accredited by the American Chemical Society. To achieve this, I had to take advanced chemistry and math courses. Also while attending Purdue, I was a team leader for their Women In Science Program. Throughout this program, I ment
