My teaching style is for the student to be methodical with their work and identify key words. I offer correction but also like to be patient to truly understand which part gives the student a struggle. I have been tutoring in mathematics from basic elementary math to Calculus I for the last 10 years. Studying engineering showed me how meticulous I had to be with my study habits and I am now able to teach other students these same tips. I currently work as a tutor at Gulf Coast State College where I am familiarized with the material and common questions daily. I also offer freelance tutoring for students of all ages.

I have a good experience of tutoring hundreds of students over a decade period of time. I have tutored from first grade student to bachelors' degree students. I have formally taught students from grades four to ten for six months as a science teacher. Recently, I helped my wife in Anatomy and Physiology I and II and Lab and College Algebra. She got straight A's in them upgrading her GPA. Most importantly, my tutoring helped my students to uplift their self-esteem, confidence and to accept learning as a process which can be made more pleasant and simple. :)

I have both a bachelors degree and masters degree in business administration/management. Both of these degrees have given me a high level of knowledge in many areas such as finance, accounting, math in general, writing, and presentations/projects. I have always been an extremely sharp student excelling in most any course I have taken. I could tutor any of the k-12 age groups, and probably many college level students (depending on the course). I have experience in training others through my work as a service coordinator and a supervisor at a fortune 500 company. My teaching style really depends on the person I am working with. People learn different ways. It is important to identify what works best for the person. For example, some people may learn through discussion, while others may need to see pictures or presentations of the subject matter. I like to identify how the person learns fir

There is no feeling like the joy felt once a student grasps a concept you're trying to share. For that reason, I attempt to explain things in multiple ways. I also believe in honestly letting students know why and how their studies will benefit their future. Another thing I stand behind is students learning to also teach their new concepts once they have mastered them. My overall goal is to empower them to be thinkers, doers, and to expand their feeling of self-worth. My college experience in the subjects of Economics, Government, Language, Math, Science, and Social Studies was rigorous. After finishing undergraduate courses, I worked for a program that sent college students out to public schools to be Teacher's Aids. We were expected to help any students who were falling behind in a subject. The experience was so rewarding that after graduation, I took a position working with troubled s

Children are individuals and you must find their style of learning and be able to adapt your teaching style for that child. I believe that you must geniunely love children and teaching to be able to reach children. They can sense when someone really cares. I have a passion for learning that I believe translates to the children I work with. I taught preschool for 5 years and had a home day care center for 4 years. I have worked as a paraprofessional at Springfield Elementary for the 3 years and was an after school tutor for the SES program for 2 terms for two different companies. Although I have not yet applied for certification, I am eligible for certification for Elementary Education as I have passed the FTCE K-6 certification exam.

I earned a B.S. in Mathematics majoring in Biomedical Mathematics during my undergraduate program at Florida State University. I am well rounded in all areas of Math and Science. The diversity of my course selection allowed me to gain minors in Physics, Computer Science and Information Technology. I currently substitute for local high school teachers, with focus in Math and Science. I have tutored many of my peers while attending Florida State University. I currently provide on-site Math tutoring at a local high school. I have found a major passion for teaching since I began working with the school system. I strive to find the ‘aha’ moment in my students by presenting the best education possible. I am very patient and considerate with any student. I make sure the basic foundations to any concepts are clearly understood before moving on to advance topics. I provide a comfortable

There are five different learning styles that teachers teach and students learn. I try to include all five of these styles into teaching. Although everyone has their dominant learning style, I feel it is important for students to think outside of the box and try new things. I believe in having fun while learning without losing the structure that is required in achieving success. I strive to make a difference in every child's life that I come into contact with, and want each student to be the best that he or she can be no matter what he or she has been told, what hardships he or she is facing, or how he or she feels about themselves. I graduated from University Of Phoenix in 2007 with a Bachelor's in Business Administration. I then went to the Educator Prepardness Institute (EPI) through Gulf Coast Community College which helped me achieve my Florida State Educator Certification in 200

I have over 10 years of tutoring experience in the areas of English, psychology, mathematics, and sciences. I also served as the Math Lab Coordinator/Lead Tutor at Wallace Community College, Dothan, AL for two years and volunteered at several after school programs to tutor elementary, middle, and high school students in general studies. Additionally, I was employed as an Education Specialist for Early Education and Care and worked with several early learning centers to improve their curriculum. I understand the importance of having a solid foundation to build on and I feel that tutoring is an essential part of making sure the foundation is strong. My teaching style consists of being a facilitator and demonstrator. I like to encourage my students to use their problem solving skills with creative and active learning/teaching. I also like to encourage my students to take some responsibilit

By having a strong background in an analytical approach to studying human behavior, I understand the process of not only how we learn, but also how to effectively teach. This specific training would help my students because I recognize that everyone learns in different ways and on different levels. The key to helping a student become more focused on his or her education is confidence; if their confidence level is built up and they know that they will succeed, then the learning experience becomes rewarding to the student in a multitude of ways. Confidence, combined with the knowledge brought on by a proper education, equals success inside and outside the classroom. As a proud graduate from Florida State University, I have earned a BS in Psychology, with a focus on Applied Behavior Analysis, along with a minor in Criminology. While studying these disciplines, I have developed an extrem

I began my teaching experience during college by first working as a teacher’s aide, after which I transitioned into substitute teaching, tutoring and after school care. Eventually I graduated and worked in elementary education as a teacher. I chose to continue my education and become an engineer. Since then, I have continued to volunteer through tutoring, Kiwanis, organizing a math competition for the schools within a five county region (MATHCOUNTS) and occasionally reading for afterschool programs. Throughout my education experience, I was taught that whole learning is the best form of education. An education is not just gained through books; every life experience is capable of teaching a child. Math can be taught through books, games or even by counting the number of sprinkles on their sundae. Science can be taught by explaining why the cloud is in the sky and why it is raining. My

As a student attending Florida State University's Civil Engineering program I was required to regularly learn, understand and apply complex mathematical equations, and scientific concepts to both hypothetical and real world problems. I was also required to regularly exercise my grammatical skills through regular lab reports. In regards to tutoring experience, as a high school student attending A.C. Mosley High School during my senior year it was requested by a M.A.P.P.S. (the school's AP program) guidance counselor to assist freshman and sophomore students who came into the office with subjects they were having difficulty with. More recently, as a student at F.S.U. I have lead study groups on an rotation system. I approach teaching in a way that is very versatile and I am willing to adapt to accommodate a variety of learning styles.

I've always enjoyed the opportunity to explain things I'm familiar with to people who need it explained. That said, I prefer a teaching environment in which the student has the opportunity to discuss the subject, and I like to keep examples practical if at all possible. As an aspiring psychologist, I also understand the value of positive reinforcement for good work, and try to use it whenever I possibly can. As a student of psychology, I have always been interested in using my knowledge to help others improve themselves. My experience teaching academic subjects is fairly limited, however, for the past four years I have volunteered as an assistant instructor at my martial arts school whenever my sensei has needed the help, which has given me ample opportunity to work on my teaching techniques with a wide variety of students. Currently I am working with a group of younger children on their

“When I approach a child, he inspires in me two sentiments; tenderness for what he is, and respect for what he may become.” Louis Pasteur. Learning is tailored to accommodate and develop students’ thinking skills and verbal/written expressions. As a patient and considerate guide, I direct students by asking questions, exploring options, suggesting alternatives, and having them make informed decisions. Providing learners with learning options may give a new way of understanding not only the course materials but also how to learn. Through stirring curiosity, creative thinking, and a love of learning my ultimate goal is to develop in students the capacity for independent action, initiative, and responsibility. I am a self-motivated professional who is innovative, goal-oriented, comfortable in public speaking, working with children and adults, and collaborative initiatives. I received my u
