ASVAB Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Saint Petersburg, FL

Consistently helped raise scores in the AFQT (Language and Mathematics); can also provide strategies for vocational portions of the test. 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 taught (and tutored after school) until I moved to Florida in 2009, when my spouse began graduate studies at U.S.F. Since then, I have continued to tutor a wide range of students in subjects ranging from high school Latin, 5th grade Math, college English, S.A.T. and G.E.D. Preparation, and graduate level writing, and I have extensive training and experience with students who struggle with dyslexia, ADD/ADHD and ESL issues, as well as with children diagnose

I have tutored math, business and science courses for high school students and adults for the last 20 years. I have tutored for standardized tests (ASVAB, FCAT, PSAT, SAT, ACT, etc) for the last 15 years - saving parents many thousands of dollars in tuition fees. I have also assisted students with homework help, time management and study skills. I use the material that the student is familiar with to enhance the students understanding of the principles and processes that are being emphasized. I bring supplemental material for the subject area and use it as needed. Primarily, the student works problems or exercises that are required in front of me. The student verbalizes the steps and thinking processes about the subject so that I can correct fundamentals and errors in logic.

As a teaching professional with a diverse background I bring a breadth of experience to all levels of teaching. I have been tutoring for 10 years and specializing in one-on-one instruction. I currently teach English at the college level, but I tutor privately in a variety of subjects. Two bachelor degrees, in English and Communications, a Masters in English, plus 30 graduate hours in Education give me a strong foundation for instructing. My passion for teaching and learning, patience and understanding make me an ideal tutor. Kids respond positively to my teaching style. I am motivating and understanding about their needs while striving to make them feel at ease. I have found that a child learns better when he/she feels a teacher is giving that student his/her total attention. Students do not want to compete with other forces.

I have been educating children who are experiencing difficulties in their learning through private and small group instruction for over 12 years. In addition to my BA and MBA, I have earned a certification from Structure of Intellect, Vida OR, so that I can assess the learning skills of students then train the brain to receive and process information in new ways. I work with all levels of students(K - 12)primarily in Mathematics and English. I employ the multiple intelligence philosophy when working with students. I believe that all students can learn; we must be able to identify their innate learning style and utilize that with innovative ways to teach them. The way information is presented can make it easier to grasp. I always look for the small successes, and praise the student, so that they gain added confidence to accomplish the more challenging ones.

As a graduate of Humboldt State University with a BA and a 2 year post-graduate certificate to teach, I have been led through an array of opportunities over 28 years. I have dealt with special needs children, teens, preschoolers, elementary children and taught any subject placed in front of me. In addition, I taught Drama, Speech, Creative Writing, Script Writing and Math at local Cooperative Groups in the state of Florida. The growth that each student achieves is my best reward. I love learning and love to pass that on. In tutoring, I first work at instilling confidence and apply small victories to achieve that goal. I find the learning style of the student and modify the information in ways that can make them more successful. I look at each student as an individual with specific learning styles that they respond best to. My goal is to identify the learning style or styles of yo

I have tutored both college-age and high school students for a number of years, and my strong areas are History, English, and Social Science. I have also served as a Sunday School teacher for middle-school students and adults. My ideal teaching style is by using questions and challenging my students to get the answers. I am very consistent as well on memorization and reading. Classical education - namely the Aristolean method - is something I strongly advocate.

My career in teaching and counseling has covered several regions of the USA and international work in two foreign countries. Besides teaching in a classroom setting, I have enjoyed tutoring experiences in writing labs at the college level and extensive tutoring situations with foreign nationals, elementary through high school age. My expertise in Language Arts, my personal writing, my travel journals – all add to my ability and enjoyment in teaching others the joys of reading and writing. I am very comfortable with math, science, and history at the elementary and middle school levels. My experience with college and career counseling at the high school level would be valuable to high school students. Most rewarding for a teacher is seeing the difference she makes in her students’ lives. When I began teaching to smaller groups and individual students, I realized how dynamic personal att

My teaching style is one of patience and encouragement. Not every student learns at the same pace. It is important to me to analyze the student's style of learning and try to comprehend where they might be having trouble understanding the concept or problem. For example, if the student has trouble with spelling, it might make sentence comprehension difficult. It is important to me never to berate a student or lose patience with them. I do not believe students can learn well under stress. I have three years teaching experience, mainly with disadvantaged populations, and five years tutoring experience. My rigorous teaching experience gives me the advantage of being able to work with any type of student with patience and courtesy. I coached volleyball at the Junior Olympic level for five years, working with girls from 12-18. When they had trouble in school, I tutored them before pra

Having a love of knowledge and learning, I have always been interested in teaching. I tutored other students both officially and unofficially from grade school through college level. Just last year I spent most of the year instructing students in various computer-related subjects. I have always been proficient in Math and Sciences, as well as good knowledge of history, social studies, and all other general subjects. I enjoy seeing anyone's eyes light up when they learn something new. Everyone has the capacity to learn, and I reflect that by tailoring my teaching style to each individual. In a classroom setting, I am patient and frequently ask questions and wait for students to ask their questions. While the students are working on their exercises, I will answer any questions. I try to get the student to work through the problem him- or herself rather than giving the answer straight-out.

Teaching is one of my biggest passions. My student teaching experience in a second grade classroom was the most memorable experience I had during my years in college. I believe that all children have different ways of learning and I feel that I can meet the needs of every child. Since all children learn differently, I feel that I have to adjust my lessons according to their needs. Examples of effective teaching methods that I enjoy using are: teaching by example, movies, music, art, visual aids, role play, games, activities, experiments, modeling, technology, and manipulatives. No matter what, I try to relate the topic being taught to the real world and I always try to make learning as fun as possible! =) During all of my years of high school and college, I was very motivated and always strive to do my best. I graduated from Eastern Michigan University with a bachelors degree in Element

I love working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am determined to assist your child in obtaining academic success in any way possible. I am understanding, outgoing and kind. I want all children to succeed and I am willing to find any way possible to help them do such a thing. As a recent graduate, I was very driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I am a strong promoter of education advocacy and I truly feel "no child should be left behind". I have earned my Bachelor's degree in Biology/Pre-Med with a minor in chemistry which has enabled me to gain a vast understanding of various types of science.
