The Student Comes First

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 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.

A Little Bit About Me...

-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.
I adapt my style of tutoring based on the needs of the student.

My comments on tutoring Life Science : Elementary, Middle school and Adult age

I receive my bachelors degree in Early Childhood and Elementary education K-6 from the University of West Florida.My teaching styles include using a hands on approach, involving all 5 senses of a child, positive praise and motivation, some rote memorization, cognitive recall, and tactile materials.
I am a veteran teacher with over 21 years of experience teaching PreK, Kindergarten,First,Second, and Third grades in two public school systems. I have worked for 3 years preparing adults for the GED. I have experience working with children of all ages with many different disabilities. I have used several reading programs to teach language,reading,and writing skills. I use many different kinds of manipulatives when teaching math concepts.

BE SUCCESSFUL & IMPROVE GRADES WITH QUALIFIED TEACHER

My teaching experience includes teaching high school science for fifteen years in the states of Florida and Georgia. Teaching classes of biology, botany, physical science, earth science and marine science with my main focus on biology. In the past five years I have taught honors biology, IB and PreIB (International Baccalaureate diploma program) students. I have also taught biology students online for three years having to tutor them online on some of the tougher biological concepts. My success as a tutor is a result of communication, goal setting, listening, making the subject more personable, providing resources, and evaluation.
My tutoring style is friendly and approachable. For short term revision, one of my major priorities is to help pupils create a 'road map' enabling them to better assess the challenges presented by their exams. Where exam performance has been compromised b ... read more

I have enjoyed very much working with children and I know that every student has his own learning style and my teaching must be adapted to them. I am patient, even with children who do not speak fluent English and I seek to encourage them to seek success. I believe a phonics approach to reading can help children learn to read quickly and confidently. I also believe a hands on approach to math can be very valuable to a child's learning. I seek to see each child achieve his potential and grow in self esteem.
As I graduated from college with my California State Teaching Credential,I was able to teach 2nd grade for the Los Angeles City School District for three years. During that time I sought to gain as much experience and expertise as possible to prepare me for teaching in a school for missionary children overseas. I studied Spanish intensively for a year in Mexico preparing me ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am an Elementary Education Major at the University of Florida and have helped many students succeed in all subject areas, with a strong focus on Elementary Education. Some subjects that I particularly tutor in include: math, science, english, social studies, and language arts. I also supply a student with supplemental material I feel will help them learn better and at their own, individual pace. For instance, I believe that some students may learn better through visual exercises, and them others may learn through auditory (hearing) exercises. Either way, I try to figure out what a students learning style is and work on that with a student.

More About This Tutor...

A teaching style developed over many years as a registered nurse and military NCO and officer affords me the opportunity to boast that I truly believe in the diverse talents of every person. Each student possesses a unique range of talents; however, each has his or her weaknesses as well. Tapping into one's talents and using that talent to learn new concepts associated with those weaknesses is the key to successful learning and sustained retention of information. Learning is fun; it is not fun when the student feels inadequate, insecure or scrutinized. Recognizing a student's talents is the first element in teaching, since failure to do so provides no solid foundation upon which to build.
As both a registered nurse and a retired Navy officer, I am an avid practitioner of lifelong learning and a zealous teacher who has vast experience in teaching students in military and private ... read more

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

Having the opportunity to work with young children is such a wonderful experience. I learn so much from them and they keep a smile on my face. I am a hands on learner and many children learn better with this technique. Also, I love to relate education to things in life that I enjoy. Therefore, I use the same technique with children and it has proven to be very helpful. My goal is to instill something into every child that I work with to allow them to accomplish more in life and to be remember for something positive.
I have acheived my bachelors degree in Business Administration minor Business Information Systems. Currently, I work for Volusia County Schools.

During my last year of undergraduate studies, I took a position tutoring autistic students in an afterschool program and also as a one on one habilitation specialist as part of their residential program. In the years to come I kept finding myself drawn back to education, even though that was never my original plan. I worked as an independent tutor, as well as part of an internship tutoring emotionally disabled immigrant children. I later decided to get my MS in Elementary Education, during which I taught fifth grade for one year. While I completed my Master's degree, I didn't stray too much from the field of education as I worked with disabled adults, administering tests and providing minimal instruction as a vocational counselor. I currently homeschool my own two children and enjoy it very much. I recently received my teaching certificate and am looking forward to sharing my exper ... read more

I am currently in my fourth year of teaching at the high school level and I love it! I enjoy teaching the students and I am very pleased when they are excited by their own success. I have a BS is Psychology, which enables me to better understand student behavior and motivation. I currently teach Math and Science. I am strongest in Algebra 1, Geometry, Biology and Earth Science. I am willing to tutor middle school and high school students in math and science.
My teaching style is very straigt forward. First, I determine what the student already knows about the topic. Next, I use direct instruction to relay the material to the student. I teach the student exactly what they need to know...there is no guess work involved. After direct instruction, the student will practice a few questions with my assistance. Finally, the student will complete some more questions on their own. W ... read more
