My comments on tutoring Guitar : I have played guitar for years.

I am an honors graduate of U.S.F. with forty years of teaching experience. In addition to my B.A. and M.A. degrees, I completed all cousework for the ED.D. I have taught FCAT preperation in middle school in math and reading. I have also taught GED Prep in the evenings. I taught junior high math one year. I have also written two books. One is a history jokebook. The other is a memoir of humorous classroom incidents. I believe that these experiences qualify me to tutor social studies, reading, and math.
My style is student centered. I always try to provide a positive atmosphere for learning. My jokes were a technique to help accomplish that goal. As a GED teacher I always began with a pretest and documented student progress to correct any deficiencies. I believe in positive reinforcement and helping students achieve their goals which gives us both a sense of accomplishment.

My comments on tutoring Guitar : Over 35 years of music experience, including several years teaching guitar to a variety of age ranges, and playing professionally. I also have a B.A. in Audio Recording and Production with experience in music theory.

Mike's teaching style is a mix of the theoretical and the practical. When teaching computer/technology subjects, Mike has been blessed with the ability to translate the technical into "layman terms" so that the student can quickly grasp the concept without getting hung up on the "techno geek speak." When teaching guitar he believes in providing a solid "book knowledge" (chord theory, music reading, etc.) but framed in a fun and engaging way that motives the student to WANT to play (and practice) their instrument.
Mike is a detail-oriented, technical professional with a strong work ethic. He is a Microsoft Certified Professional (Access, Excel, Word and PowerPoint) and CompTIA A+ certified. Mike has almost 30 years of technology experience including: database/application development (Access, SQL Server); website development (SharePoint, HTML, VBScript, etc.) and computer systems a ... read more

Guitar is one of my top subjects! Been studying guitar since the age of 8. I currently am applying to college to study Music Performance (guitar), but can teach basic and to some extent advanced Guitar Performance and Theory

I am a very patient person, but do admire and require people to be respectful in every sense of the word. I do not like sitting in front of the students begging him or her to pay attention. I like having engaged students that do their best to understand or learn. Regarding the music tutoring and teaching, I like having students that do not give up. I know learning a new instrument is hard; I experienced it myself, but the key to learning how to play an instrument is perseverance and practice.
I have been a tutor for many different areas, primarily music, during my High School years. Have worked in a program that focused in teaching poor homeless children to play various instruments. I also taught them how to build and maintain their instruments, and learned myself how to do it. I have also given tutoring in school subjects and have helped a few students understand subjects ... read more

I have a Master's in Anthropology and have spent 8 years in the field working case studies on the effects of domestic violence on children under the age of 16. I have also spent 4 years analyzing these effects and comparing them to the amount of children who move on to have violent and abnormal outburts of anger and rage.
I believe that every student deserves their own personal attention. Every individual has their own learning style and relates to their teacher differently than anyone else. I find my productivity and enjoyment only comes from accomodating to each students personalities, goals, and learning style.

The fears, doubts and anxieties that all students must deal with on an ongoing basis is something I am very familiar with both from a student standpoint as well as an academic advisor. To guide and to inspire the student to become an active, self-monitoring and independent learner is only half the battle, yet it is one of my skills. Without the ability to communicate genuine love and concern teaching becomes obsolete.
My experience comes from the real world. I am bilingual and I have over 12 years experience as an academic advisor at NYU and Columbia University. I also bring 10 years of corporate business experience. In this time I have tutored countless students and co-workers from all walks of life in Spanish, English as a second language, literature, reading, research, writing papers, proofreading, editing, grammar, basic math and study skills. I have helped them deal with fe ... read more

I became as a musician through experience and study some correspondent. My highest education is three years in college taking management and accounting. My music experience is 35 years as a profession. Teaching at home and some music studio.I play piano, one man band keyboard with bass pedal, guitar and horn.
I beleve teaching depends on individuals capacity of the student some are past learner and some are slow. You should find a way to make the student understand what to to do step by step or according his capability to digest the lesson. And i believe practice is repeatation until you make it right the Suzuki method I prepare to teach.

A Little Bit About Me...

Motivating students to want to learn is a key facet of my success as a teacher. I have found that educating people to understand ‘why’ things are done is essential to having them truly understand the subject matter being taught. In short I teach them how to learn. My approach always includes the “coach approach” so the student knows you honestly want them to win and get a good grade in a particular subject. An essential component of the “student teacher” experience is developing a verbal performance contract in which responsibilities of the student and the teacher are very clear. This way the student learns to “trust” me and wants to learn more from me.

As a kid I was very sickly and had back problems. This forced me to become patient with school. I have developed my own learning style in a way that relates to things that I find relevant. I use this strategy to help others better process information that may at first seem difficult to them. I have tutored elementary school children in basic science as well as college students in organic chemistry.
I graduated college with a degree in Psychology but have much experience in biology and chemistry. I have taken many science classes as I am now awaiting acceptance to University of Florida's Dental School. I am also a certified personal trainer so I am very familiar with anatomy. I have also been playing the guitar and piano for 10 years.
