I'm a rising senior in high school who has been tutoring peers/coaching the math team at my high school for three years. Both my PSAT and SAT scores are in the 99+ percentile and include perfect scores of 800 in both the Mathematics and Writing Sections of the SAT. I also received a score of 800 in SAT Math Level 2. I have thoroughly studied the SAT/PSAT and can pinpoint exactly what the tests are asking for and how to raise your scores. I firmly believe anyone can raise his or her scores drastically with the proper techniques and guidance, as I have helped several people do so and have done so myself. I am also willing to tutor anyone who is interested in the following subject areas: Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, Statistics, Pre-Calc, and Calculus (up to the AP calc BC level or calc 2). $20/hr. Contact me if interested and I will get in touch as soon as possible. Thanks

My comments on tutoring SAT - Verbal : Having scored a 1370 on the SAT after three attempts, I can safely say that I wish I knew then what I know now about taking the SAT. Moreso than any other exam, the SAT can be approached with a very methodical strategy that will maximize the student's time and minimize the number of points lost. As far as the contents of the exam go, they are not much more difficult than the typical FCAT. Many students simply freeze or forget important information when faced with the stresses that a big, important exam like the SAT has in store. With the proper tutelage, however, a student will be well prepared to receive this exam and succeed!

Greetings one and all! My name is Tristan, and I am a recent graduate of the University of Florida's College of Engineering as of August 2012. I graduated with a Bachelor of Sciences degree in Nuclear Engineering and a cumulative GPA of 3.25 (and I will tell you that I earned every point of it). I am looking forward to using my knowledge and proficiency in various fields of math and science to make your four year slog through the rigors of academia as palpable as possible. I offer flexible hours, friendly demeanor, and a patient approach to tutoring that caters to your individual skill set. All of this comes at a reasonable price, which can of course be negotiated to suit your budget (remember, I was once a broke college student too). In short: I work with you, for you, and on your terms! I offer tutelage in many technical disciplines: Math, Science, and Engineering are my b ... read more

My comments on tutoring SAT - Verbal : I have experience tutoring students for the SAT, both individually and in small groups. I worked with the Let's Get Ready organization in Framingham, MA, which offers weekly SAT sessions for students in underprivileged neighborhoods.

I am a big proponent of the theory of multiple intelligences and believe that each student has certain styles of learning that work best for them. I aim to help students figure out how they learn best. Once they realize where their strengths are, they can incorporate the concept into all of their studies, not just the subject for which I happen to be tutoring them.
I have tutored a wide variety students on many subjects. I am most experienced tutoring high school students for the SAT. I worked with Let's Get Ready, a non-profit organization dedicated to preparing high school students for the SAT and their college search process. I typically tutored students for the Math section, but I am capable of tutoring for the Critical Reading and Writing sections as well. Some of my other tutoring experiences have been with middle and high school students. I have tutored several students in ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I spent some time in college tutoring other students in subjects such as mathematics and Hebrew. I was asked by the academic support office to tutor because my advisor knew I was a committed student with a strong knowledge of many subjects. I was honored to be thought of in such a way. I did well with my students and they respected me. I was serious about accomplishing the tasks at hand when I met with them and the overall reflection in their grades showed very positive results. I am an excellent choice if you are looking for a tutor who is hard working, intelligent, and devoted to helping his students really grasp the concepts at hand.
I consider myself to be a very good people person. I have a way of relating to the students that I'm helping. As mentioned above, my students respect me and see that I am serious and focused on helping them succeed in their studies. I look forwa ... read more

My favorite approach is to take it slow. I find that to teach a student a specific field of knowledge there is almost always a hindering block that cannot be seen at first glance. For instance, a student who is having trouble with division of decimal numbers may not realize that the whole issue stems from his lack of understanding of the multiplication tables. Allowing the student to show you what he or she knows and watching the student attempt the problem step-by-step will reveal this hidden block. Once this hidden block is taken care of, the information will flow easily and naturally.
Throughout my education I have always prided myself in being an excellent student. Although this extended to all my subjects, my most passionate courses have always been in mathematics. This has been true from elementary all the way through college. Once in high school, I began tutoring students in ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

If there is anything I believe about teaching, in any form, it's that you need to be passionate about what you are teaching, yourself, before you can translate that to others seeking knowledge. I am incredibly passionate about English, and endeavor to transmit that to any pupil; furthermore, I am very understanding, patient, and sympathetic when it comes to a teaching style, but know how to motivate students to want to learn themselves. I do not teach merely to help students improve their grades, but look instead to further their understanding and develop their interests in subjects they feel uncomfortable with.
I am currently an English major at the University of Florida, looking to finish my undergraduate education in two semesters and graduate with honors and a Bachelor of Arts. I have had past experience working and volunteering with children on an individual level, teaching th ... read more

My teaching style is very specific to each student I tutor. I try to tailor my thoughts so that any student at any level in the subject can understand me. At the teaching center, the focus was to help guide the student to get the correct answer and not just give the answer. Sometimes the thinking process to achieving the correct answer is more important than the answer itself. I also try using diagrams and figures when they are called for to explain some of the topics. I frequently use positive reinforcement so the student feels even more encouraged to learn.
As a microbiology student, I have taken rigorous courses in the sciences as well as math. The laboratory classes that accompany the science classes also provided first hand knowledge and the ability to write research papers and lab reports. This along with my passion for chemistry let me to take a position at the University of ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I will be graduating from UF this fall semester with a degree in marketing and mass communication. Although I am young, I have had some experience in teaching, as I have worked as a tutor during the summer. I have also served as a tutor at the University of Florida in all math related topics. I truly enjoy working with people of all ages and I am a registered substitute teacher. I have always been a diligent student, as my transcript can attest, and I have a passion for teaching anyone, especially in the areas of mathematics, economics, English, and writing.
My teaching style embodies a combination of individualism and structure. Before I teach any subject, I dissect the topic to get to the fundamental root that may cause difficulties in learning. I break down the problem into a simple nature so that students can understand the logical reasoning of how to solve any problem. I be ... read more

I am interested in pursuing an academic career as a teacher and am eager to continue this path. I am able to teach many levels and pride myself on encouraging students to open up their own critical thinking skills. At the University of Colorado at Boulder, I taught recitations for religious studies courses in Judaism and Christian Traditions as well as a recitation in World Regional Geography to students in their freshman through senior years as well as to non-traditional students pursuing their educations later in life. The courses I assisted in teaching generally involved extensive writing assignments which required me to help students work on skills necessary to succeed in reading comprehension, writing skills and critical thinking.
I would like to pass on my dedication to learning and the understanding of cultural patterns to students and following them from their first encount ... read more

When I can help other students understand a concept that was once very confusing for them, I feel very satisfied. I am very flexible in my teaching methods. Primarily, I like to understand the learning styles of my student so I know what will best work for them. I will do whatever it takes to make sure the student understands the concept and succeeds. I also like to encourage students by implementing different incentive programs; this will motivate them to continue working hard. I am extremely confident that I will be able to teach my students successfully in a fun and engaging manner.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and being around children. Their vitality and energy is contagious. I believe they are truly our nation's future and we must nurture them. I believe each child has unique skills and capabilities and you must tap into these capabilities to assure the student learns well. Each child has a unique way of learning and every child is capable of succeeding with the right tools at hand. I am a very hands on teacher and believe that a child can most often learn best through discovering for themselves. I believe it is important to not only be concerned for the child's education but also for the child's feelings and personal life. You must gain a respect for the child and give them the respect you feel that you deserve yourself.

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy working with children. I volunteered at a day care center for four years and tutored children with learning disabilities. I am very patient and calm; my friends describe me as zen. I know that all children have the ability to learn; yet, some need help to unlock their potential. I love teaching. In fact, I am currently enrolled in the UF PROTEACH Masters Program, and by next year I plan to be a fully certified high school teacher. As I have devoted myself to my academic career, I will dedicate myself to helping all children learn.
I devote myself to my work. During high school, I enrolled myself at the local college (Florida Atlantic University) and took advanced placement courses. I graduated second in my high school class with over a 5.0 weighted-GPA and 500 hours of community service. I also orchestrated a 7-student tutoring group through the Exceptional Student d ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a BA in Math and a love of logic. When I completed my degree, I was only a few courses shy of a second BA in philosophy. My other loves are spelling, grammar, poetry, literature, mind-activating games and puzzles, and similar activities. For the 2005-2006 school year, I took a long term substitute position for 6 months as a full-time instructor for drop-out prevention high school math students.
Working with drop-out prevention students inspired me and showed me that I have a talent for sharing my knowledge in a way that is intelligible and absorbable, as well as transcendable beyond the average classroom environment. I prefer to educate by asking my pupils leading questions that encourage them to use their own internal skills to arrive at an answer, rather than being "spoon fed" or otherwise assisted. My attitude is professional but caring, and I feel that I'm able to r ... read more
