A Little Bit About Me...

My major complaint with the current pedagogy of STEM fields is there focus on teaching students to be able to produce answers so a slew of canned and frankly uninteresting problem sets. There is so much interesting literature, philosophy, and history in the fields of science and physics that it makes very little sense to muddle with these less helpful and dull techniques and problems. Physics and math education has become so perforated with cliche that shows like Cosmos and the elegant universe can become hits by just regurgitating the same buzz-theories (Schrodinger's cat, Black holes, the multiverse etc.) in the same, cloddish language (space-time is 'warped' and twisted, quantum 'weirdness', etc). This lack of original language and analogy is not a semantical issue; it's suggestive of the philistine cleaving of the sciences from the arts and it's very disturbing -- these truly awesome ... read more

SAT - Math is one of my top subjects! 20 years experience and have a special "Cheat Sheet" I have developed for this test.

Students in the classroom and those tutored privately all Comment that my teaching style makes learning and mastering each subject so much easier than they have found from other teachers. Students are taught learning skills that apply to their current subject and they can apply these skills to other subjects.

I believe all children are capable of learning. We need to adjust to help everyone learn. Student- centered learning and constructivism are key components in student learning. Once again, my personal belief of education is "You only get out what you put in".
I have taught for a total of 11 years. I taught in Prince George's Public schools for 5 years, Hyde Leadership Public Charter School in DC for 1 year, Avon Park High School for 2 years, Hardee Junior High for 1 year, and Bill Duncan Opportunity Center (alternative school) for 2 years. I have a Bachelor's in Biology and certifications in Math (5-9), Biology (6-12), and Middle Grades Integrated Curriculum (5-9). I plan to also attain a certification in ESOL and Reading by the end of the year.I am also interested in getting two Master's, in Counseling and Nursing. I have learned many skills, especially High Yield Instructional Str ... read more

Over the years, I have consistently maintained both high moral values and excellent academic standards. While earning my two BA Degrees, I served both as a tutor and substitute teacher in several elementary schools. My second BA Degree was earned from Warner University in the elementary education major which was earned in addition to my special education endorsement. Armed with a degree in education and proven extensive grammatical skills, I taught middle and high school students in all academic disciplines including Math, Reading, English, Writing, Literature, Social Studies, Life Skills, History, Science, and Geography.
I am committed to helping each person reach his or her highest and greatest potential. My goal is to provide each student with an educational environment conducive for a successful learning experience. The tutor must establish the learning setting by creating ... read more

My teaching style varied depending on the students abilities in my classes. When whole group or direct instruction was needed, I utilized it; if hands-on instruction was needed, I utilized that strategy. I am a firm believer that using a multi-sensory approach is the way to go in any instrucitonal program. Since all children learn differently, then the use of different modalities to deliver instruction will benefit more children. Most of all, patience is required. Because no matter what strategy and mode of instruction used, patience and guidance is needed for the child to achieve to his potential
I worked for as a teacher in a New York city high school for 10 years and as Assistant Principal of Mathematics for 15 years. I've now retired and moved to North Port. During the early onset of my teaching career I tutored privately at my home many students ranging from grade 3 to colle ... read more

I love working with children because the impact that you can have on their lives can make such a significant difference in determining their futures. Every child learns differently and unfortunately not every child’s learning needs can be met in the classroom environment. I feel that with a little extra time and effort a child's scholastic performance can be greatly improved. Determining a child's strengths and weaknesses when it comes to learning along with identifying the learning styles that they are receptive to (i.e. auditory, visual, etc.) is an important step in providing the appropriate tutoring experience for that individual. I believe that an education is one of the keys to a fulfilling and successful life that I think every child deserves this opportunity.
I just graduated about eight months ago with a B.S. in Biomedical Science from USF. I plan on going to medical ... read more

I have taught children how to sail for about 10 years now. These children range in groups of 5-15 and ages 5 to adult. This requires not only instruction, but First Aid and CPR certifications and safety procedures. I also am now a Spanish professor at a local community college, teaching a Medical Spanish class to nursing students.
I love teaching and working with children. I think that turning the class material into a fun experience will make it easier to learn, and make the experience enjoyable for them as well. I am patient, experienced, and compassionate. I love coming up with in-class activities and games to make the students retain the material. I've even come up with songs and rhymes to help students from young children to my college peers.

More About This Tutor...

I taught for fourteen years in an urban public school system where I had the privilege to educate children from various socio-economic and cultural backgrounds. Throughout my career, I have organized Science Fairs, taught pilot programs for Test Taking Skills and Mentally Gifted classes, was the lead fifth grade reading teacher, and have mentored colleagues. In addition, I have taught self-contained classes from grades four to eight.
My teaching style includes a proactive approach. I encourage student participation through hands-on activities, inquiry, thought provoking prompts, and cooperative group learning. Objectives are clearly defined and communicated to my pupils prior to each lesson and I usually close with a summary.

Many of my assignments were in development and institution of training programs including Equal Opportunity/Race Relations, Leadership and Management, and Professional Development. After I retired I worked as an engineer for government contractors writing training programs and systems manuals for state-of-the-art communication systems.

A Little Bit About Me...

I take a student-centered, hands-on approach to teaching. Individual learning styles must be addressed, and tutoring is an excellent way for a student to receive the type of instruction best suited for his/her learning style(s). Science can often be a difficult subject to learn, and also a difficult subject to teach; often requiring a careful blend of subject mastery, an arsenal of teaching strategies, and creativity.
I have 4 years of combined instructional experience from teaching at public high school and at a state university. I have taught across the spectrum; from learning disabled (ESE) to gifted (IB), as well as college students. A 60-hour ESOL class has been completed (as required by law), and I have worked extensively with ELL students. The following is a list of the disciplines in science for which I have experience teaching: Biology (regular and honors), Ecology, P ... read more
