A Little Bit About Me...

I adapt my style of tutoring based on the needs of the student.
-I have been tutoring successfully for the past four years, aiding not only colleagues in their desire to obtain optimal grade point averages, but also kids with ages ranging from kindergarten to 12th grade. -I have tutored kids towards end of year exams and have turned desperate situations into passing grades. -I received a 1390/1600 SAT score and did not take the ACT.

Learning comes with a pinch of confidence & creativity. :)

I have tutored for Acers tutoring in Orlando for a full year. I have full experience with teaching reading and writing, as well as somer lower level algebra and mathematic skills. The kids have ranged from ages 8-14. As well, I have been giving guitar lessons to kids between the ages of 10-14. The children have all been able to pick up quickly, and being a song writer, I encourage the kids to seek full creativity in their music and learning. In college, I've spent my time volunteering with the youth group, and helping mentor kids in the middle school age. Also, I am a double major, and have majored in Education, which has allowed me to work with JEA and create lesson plans and teach a class of seventh graders.
I implement creativity, and ample amount of positive, fun energy into the way I teach. I believe the key to any child's learning is first instilling confidence into them. W ... read more

My comments on tutoring Composition : 21 years of teaching English Compositon

I have had the pleasure of teaching English to high school students for 25 years. This was an occupation that I enjoyed immensely. My duties included teaching reading comprehension on a literal and figurative level. My background enabled me to present historical background on particular novels and authors. I have also taught all levels of writing. Some of these include written analysis of literature, first person narrative essays, creative writing, and writing for college.

Honors High School Graduate with experience in teaching

My lessons can range from private lessons to group lessons of no more than five at one time. I prefer to be very involved in my students' progress, and will readily explain any questions that they do not understand. My main strategy is basically to lay out the concepts that will be covered that day, go over several practice problems, and give three or four practice problems for the students to work on independently. For art students, I will demonstrate with explanation the concept that we will be covering in that lesson (be it portraiture basics or still life basics), draw diagrams with the steps clearly labeled, and have the student independently work on a similar piece which applies the same concepts. I will supervise the student's progress and correct any lasting errors, but I prefer to have the students produce an almost entirely independently produced piece each session.

The Student Comes First

I allow my teaching style to mold itself to each individual student, finding methods of communicating the information that best suit the learning style of my student. I favor a holistic approach to learning, believing that education should be of the whole person. If a student learns how a skill in his tutoring session can be applied in real life, then his or her perception of the subject may fundamentally improve.
I am a graduate of Tennessee Temple University, with experience tutoring at Tennessee Temple University, as well as University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, in various topics, including biodiversity, mathematics (up to pre-calculus), history, and American Sign Language. I continue to study in my personal time as many topics as possible, with the belief that a good tutor is firstly a good student.

I Will Meet You Where You Are!

I believe every student can learn! School was never meant to be a struggle, an effort yes, but not a struggle!
Hello! I have 15 years of teaching experience in the classroom and have been tutoring now since January of 2012. I have a true passion for teaching! I have taught in the parochial, private, and public schools. I taught at Assumption Catholic School from 1997-2004, English and Reading to 6th-12th grade ESE students at The Broach School from 2004-2008, and Intensive Reading to 11th and 12th graders at Andrew Jackson High School (public inner city urban in Duval County) from 2010-2011. I have also conducted FCAT, ACT, and SAT prep, as well as study skills in the summer months when students don't have schoolwork! While in the classroom my average student came up 3-4 grade levels in a year in reading comprehension, fluency, vocabulary, spelling, and language mechanics. My certi ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been taking classes at Daytona State for 1 semester, but like my credentials said, I have gotten awards through them from my Middle School, and high school. I have been tutoring since 2003. I have had multiple students at one time, so group sessions may be common in my teaching. I am in all advanced classes, and I can tutor in just about ever subjects.
I teach either one on one or in groups with the same subject, depending on how many students I get.

More About This Tutor...

I began my teaching career as a writing/reading tutor while attending Ramapo College of New Jersey. During this time I was working in the English Lab, and was responsible for helping students improve their skills in researching and writing essays, compositions and research papers. After graduating from Ramapo, I entered the field of aviation, where I earned a certificate as a Certified Flight Instructor. I have been teaching various aviation related subjects for over 5 years. Most recently, I have been living in Daegu, South Korea teaching English as a Second Language to Korean students between the ages of 6 and 18.
I consider myself easy going and fun. In my experience as a teacher, I find that the most effective results come through what might be called "gentle guidance" rather than a more dictatorial style of teaching. I believe that children love to learn new things and are cur ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I believe that an instructor’s primary role is to create an environment that encourages a real desire to learn by presenting the subject matter in a way that is interesting to the student and by striving to make it make it relevant to their lives. It is my role as an instructor to take abstract concepts and breathe life into them and make them real to the student. I think that it is important to understand and be constantly aware that different people learn in different ways. Because of this, I feel that it is important that an instructor uses a wide range of teaching methods in order to give each student the best opportunity to learn and understand the material.
I have earned both a MA and a BS in Urban and Regional Studies from Minnesota State University. I spent 15 years working in local government management. Throughout my career, I have taken opportunities to hire and mentor ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have excellent interpersonal people skills. I have a great passion for children and a sincere desire to help them learn. I was allowed the privilege to teach elementary, middle ,and high school as a substitute teacher on an as needed basis in the previous school year.
I love to teach but I really love to see children of all ages learn. I believe that all children can learn no matter their individual challenges. I prefer to work one on one with children or in a small class setting.
