Extremely patient, but organized. Teach students how to be organized, how to properly prepare for tests and to be able to recall information when needed.

Besides being extremely organized, I am very patient and try to reach everyone on whatever level they are currently on. I don't just shove a bunch of information at you and hope you get it. Instead, I build on what strengths you already have, and show you how to use your unique, individual learning style when I am tutoring you. My strengths have always been writing, spelling, and all things related to Language Arts/English Comp. Also, I have always been pretty successful at test taking and study techniques.

I am a former attorney, currently in work-release. The undercapitalization of my practice kept me from being able to withstand a series of family financial disasters, and I stole to make ends meet. For this, I take complete personal responsibility. I have been a good, hard worker for my entire life, and I respectfully ask for a second chance. Bonded to $10,000.00.

I am creative, witty, and have a great rapport with students. I understand the nuances of various learning styles and my first priority is to discover the style my learner is. I administer diagnostic skills which I use to help with reading and writing comprehension. I have taught FCAT skills as well as college prep. I believe in hard work, practice, and rewards. Having a background in minority education from UNF and ESOL certification has helped me understand how best to help students from different cultures and countries. I am passionate about teaching and as a recent retiree, I miss the opportunity to work with students. I have taught AP language arts, standard English to all levels of high school, drama, speech, adult ed (FCCJ), and dual enrollment English Compostion, and Introduction to Literature. I am distressed at the lack of student expertise in composition and I believe in

I am a patient and encouraging teacher. I am very committed to my students and teaching is my passion. I am not afraid of taking a student from level “zero” because I believe that anyone can learn as long they have the motivation and the explanations they need. My goal is to help each one of my students make their "academic dreams" become reality. I am a patient and encouraging teacher. I am very committed to my students and teaching is my passion.

My teaching style is highly personalized and tailored; firm, but friendly, has been an expression quite often used by administrators and parents to describe my demeanor. Once my students feel comfortable enough to truthfully reveal what they actually know and do not know, they realize that that is not a problem. No one knows everything. But it is instilled in my students to know themselves, their true strengths, as well as, weaknesses. Utilizing their previous knowledge with reasoning and open candid discussions, I always commend them on what they do know and build from there. Better self esteem and appreciation for the value and need of the subjects learned testify to the impact of such teaching methods used. My teaching experience covers a period of thirty seven (37) years in which time I have taught children and adults of all ages and cultures using time-tested methods to e

I hold an AA in Liberal Arts with emphasis on computer science. I am currently in pursuit of BS in Biomedical at the University of North Florida. As a result I am well versed in most areas of general education. My mathematic skills are well honed; my scientific knowledge covers biology, chemistry, physics and technology. In addition, I am able to write effectively, clearly and correctly. I was a member of the honors program Edison College and now also at UNF. I have developed a love of learning that coincides with a love of teaching. I have an intuitive grasp of what an instructor is trying to accomplish. As a result I know how to target the key concepts in a way that combines the key ideas with peripheral ideas to produce not only a better grade, but a better understanding of the material. As a father I know children are quick learners and absorb information very readily but only when i

Through my professional experience in both reading and writing instruction, I have honed the skills that I believe make me an ideal tutor and teacher for primary and secondary students of any age. I earned a Bachelor of Arts in English degree from the University of North Florida, during which time I acted as a student instructor for a one-credit-hour course in writing through the UNF Honors Program. I also worked as a writing, reading, and speech tutor through the UNF Writing Program. After graduating from UNF in 2002, I worked as a professional (full-time and freelance) editor for several publications. I currently work as an editor for Nemours Children's Clinic's online Continuing Medical Education site. In between those positions, I worked as a high school teacher in ninth grade English/Language Arts. Throughout this time, I have also been employed as a part-time classroom and private

I believe the key to teaching is communication. Building a connection between myself and the student has always been a cornerstone of my pedagogical style. I believe that most students have the potential to succeed, and that my role as an instructor is to help them to teach themselves -- which is the essence of real learning. My first instructional experience was when I was 8; I taught my cousin how to read. From there, I went on to tutor as an undergrad and to teach while in graduate school. I have missed the one-on-one aspect of tutoring, and am especially able to help with English, but can work in other areas as well.

My teaching style is based on one thing...all children can succeed. I am the person that welcomes the challenges and weaknesses of students and turn those into successes. I am the teacher who students won't have to feel like they are not the best in the class based only on their grades, but encourage them that they are. Encouragement and celebration is the key to inspiring children to succeed. As an University of North Florida, special education gradate, I have always loved children with disabilities. I have pre-interned and interned in multiple special education settings and non special education settings. I have been an aspiring teacher for the past 5 years and I have completed that dream. I am qualified to teach various learning styles and challenge the desires that all children have to succeed.

For the last nine years, except for one break to finish my college degree, I worked at the Boys & Girls Club of Erie County. My primary job was director of education, where most of my time was spent tutoring, teaching and helping with homework. Over that timespan I worked with a wide range of students from first grade on up to graduating seniors and college volunteers. I can assist students in all of the academic disciplines. My specific degree is English, with a concentration on Creative Writing. My personal favorites are science and philosophy. Each student engages homework in a different way. For example, some with a lackadaisical approach, some with a sense of being overwhelmed, some that are missing fundamentals and some unable to self-check. The one thing all students have in common: the desire to learn is in their minds. It may be pushed aside, but all students feel the power of k

I have a bachelor's degree in Biology from Florida State University. Also, I have a valid State of Florida Professional Educator's Certificate (Biology/Science). I have taught Biology full-time in recent years, and have also substituted in classes as varied as language arts, math, history, art - you name it. I have taught many ESE (special Ed) kids. I have experience tutoring, also. As a former editor and proofreader, I can help with writing. I enjoy helping students achieve. Well, teaching one or a small group is quite different from teaching large classes. When tutoring, it's especially important to be a good listener and observer, to help pinpoint the student's needs and target areas to strenghten. When I see a student "getting it" (absorbing a new concept or mastering something for the first time) I do feel satisfaction. I do have patience, and I relate well to establish a rapport w

I believe I would be very effective helping students in any of these areas, as well as Social Sciences. I have experience working with children of all ages and will make learning fun! I really enjoy working with children and helping them. I am very patient and try to focus on each child's learning style to see how I can best help them achieve their potential. I believe in an interactive approach to learning and I can help make school something that is challenging, as well as rewarding. I believe all children can be successful and I would love to be the one who makes that difference.
