What are your child’s struggles? What is his/her learning style? I am the tutor for you! I have a great amount of success in adapting my teaching style to the needs and learning styles of a classroom of learners as well as individually to those I am tutoring. I am a favorite tutor with parents, children and education evaluators, especially FCAT preparation and subjects like reading, writing, and math.

Previously an accountant, I am now a trained, certified schoolteacher, experienced in all elementary education areas and all elementary and middle high school levels of math in addition to tutoring and substituting through high school. With my classroom experience, I have valuable insight into the best teaching methods and how to help students understand difficult concepts.

I look forward to working with you and your child.

Algebra 1

I specialize in weekly Algebra 1 lessons, in addition to well developed Algebra 1 Florida End of Course Assessment preparation sessions.

It is my strong background as an accountant before I trained as a teacher, that I bring together to successfully evaluate needs and solutions for my students in our tutor sessions. I help them to find multiple ways to solve problems when they are presented with questions that they are unsure of the answers. I have found that the best ways to integrate... Read More

Prealgebra

I carefully guide students from the concrete to the abstract, helping them to gain understanding of the unknown variables associated with algebra concepts. This foundation is valuable to build more difficult and technical equations in the future.

Writing

I have well-planned and proven writing lessons for developing skills and strategies necessary for ACT and SAT Essay Writing Prompts, the most important being developing a thesis statement and organizational aides.

Other Writing lessons cover preparation for the 4th Grade and 8th Grade Florida Writes by focusing on Narrative, Expository, and Persuasive prompts, organization, format, grammar, punctuation, etc.

Last school year, all of the 4th grade writing students that I... Read More

Accounting

Formally as a staff accountant, my responsibilities included double sided entry system for both manual and computerized bookkeeping systems. My experience comprises QuickBooks and nonprofit organizations. My skills are bank reconciliations, general journals and ledgers postings and adjustments, trial balance, profit and loss statements, change in cash flow, depreciation, and various quarterly and annual tax preps and filings.

I bring all of this previous experience plus the additional... Read More

SAT Math

I have a very strong background in the mathematical field. I was a staff accountant in a certified public accounting office for many years before I began working on my teaching degree.

I bring all of this previous math experience plus the additional training, education, and experience of a school teacher, together to successfully evaluate needs and solutions for my students in our tutor sessions. I help to find ways to solve problems when they are presented with questions that they... Read More

GED

I work with students and guide them to discover math concepts so that they develop an in-depth understanding of the mathematical foundations that build together into various rules or formulas. Mathematical formulas have real meaning to students that understand the details behind them.

Working with students while using several different learning modalities, insures me that they get the message of the lesson in a combination of ways. What they don’t get by listening, they receive by seeing,... Read More

SAT Reading

I have developed a reading program centered around reading passage comprehension, identifying answers to multiply choice questions on Specific Detail, Inference, Understanding Character, Point of View, Cause and Effect, Comparison, Vocabulary, and Main Idea. Working with the student, I administer practices and evaluate their answers. Then we evaluate and I explain how to correctly respond to specific test answers.

ACT Math

I was a staff accountant in a certified public accounting office for many years before I began working on my teaching degree.

I bring all of this previous experience plus the additional training, education, and experience of a school teacher together for my students in our tutor sessions. The best ways to learn new tasks is to make them personally meaningful and this helps students to retain information long after tests are taken.

Elementary (K-6th)

I am an elementary school teacher experienced at teaching all subject areas (math, English, reading, science, and social studies)at all grade levels: Kindergarten through 6th grade, plus middle and high school math. Because I have such a great ability to evaluate students' learning problems and communicate in different ways to help them grasp each concept, I have been voted Teacher of the Year. I use student's learning styles to dictate my individual teaching style for students to help them them... Read More

Study Skills

As an elementary school teacher in all subject areas in an immersion classroom integrated with ESE students. I have plenty of on the job experience working with children and helping to increase learning by improving study skills. I teach them to learn how to study effectively, manage their time appropriately, and improve study habits. Students who have good study skills have higher grades. Some study skills that I focus on include highly successful methods for memorizing information and learning... Read More

ESL/ESOL

I have an ESOL teaching certificate with the Florida Department of Education. I have a college degree in Elementary Education with 300 hours of ESOL training. I have been employed at an elementary magnet school for ESOL students with children from over 90 countries attending. Working at an ESOL school has helped me to learn to help students quickly and easily adapt to the curriculum.

I have plenty of on the job experience working with children with learning disabilities such as ADD, ADHD, and dyslexia, in addition to special needs like autism.

My strongest traits are my love of teaching, my patience, and my ability to use various ways to demonstrate a concept until... Read More

Children with autism often have unusual responses to sight, touch, hearing, movement, or smell that can interfere with learning. Using my traits of love of teaching and patience with students, I target specific needs... Read More

ISEE

Helping students strengthen their skill sets and vocabulary development are necessary for successful ISEE studies. I have developed comprehensive and easy to understand lessons to aid students with ISEE math problems, reading, writing skills and vocabulary. After I administer practice tests, I reevaluate their needs and remediate in all weak areas.

Social Studies

As an Elementary School teacher, I have taught Social Studies curriculum for US History and Florida History studies. As an assistant High School teacher, I have a broad background in European studies, as well as travel abroad.

By efficiently using internet technology, documents, maps, and graphs, students transform from boredom to actively participating in their own learning through research, analysis, report writing, and projects. These methods translate to great growth and success,... Read More
