Tutor of Math and other subj., speaks Creole, French and Spanish

I am college student, sophomore at St. Thomas University. I am particularly skilled in mathematics and writing, but I am open to various other subjects, especially languages. Besides English, I speak, read, and write (Haitian) Creole very well, as well as French. And despite being a slightly less fluent Spanish speaker - though still very decent - I also read it and write it with much ease, and understand Spanish grammar thoroughly, having studied it for years. My multilingual capacities can be proven by my scores of 730/800 in SAT Subject test Spanish and a perfect 800/800 in French, as well as a perfect 5/5 in AP French. Furthermore, I graduated from High School with a 3.77 unweighted GPA.

I wish to tutor students from Elementary school to High School, especially those who are in deep need. I have helped several friends before, many of whom were literally stuck in their education, because they just could not find a way to go through obstacles such as ACT and SAT, or FCAT in public schools. Students I work with always appreciate the fact that I am young, which allows them to connect with me better, be more motivated to show effort, and be more enthusiastic to learn

I would primarily work between Fridays and Sundays, but other days at specific times can also be discussed.

Conscious that my High School achievements don't disregard the fact that I do not have a higher-education degree - even though my academic and teaching abilities have been praised my many - I go below the average and charge $30 per hour.

Algebra 1

One of my main points of emphasis in tutoring Algebra is the step-by-step process. I show my student how a good result must be gotten progressively, however fast that process might be, and also how one result leads to another. Also I try to make my students Math-savvy, by providing them with multiple ways to reach a result. This allows the student to easily get out of trouble, limits mistakes, and makes the student able to always have an alternative when a certain method taught in school is not... Read More

Algebra 2

I always keep in mind that if a student is seeking tutoring in Mathematics, it is because additional assistance is needed but also it might be because a different approach is needed, compared to that of the classroom, for the student to understand the subject. Therefore I emphasize certain points

1. Skills development:
I lead the student to practice, and developing math habits. That means adopting a certain approach for a certain area or problem - an approach that the student can... Read More

Vocabulary

Proper vocabulary is an inevitable factor to good writing and respectable speaking. With me as an assistant, the student will be able to practice this, until it becomes second nature. The student will be able to establish similarity, familiarity, opposition and differences between words and phrases, and know what to use when. My tutoring experience, familiarity with difficulties students often encounter in Vocabulary assignments, and over solid academic performance, will ease my student to success... Read More

Grammar

My objective in grammar is to make my student adopt good habits and generate valuable knowledge and skills by following rules, which will lead to academic success. This requires regular and rigorous practice, and willingness to know, and respect those rules, and also an understanding that applying those rules will make the student better and bring much better results in school. I have valuable experienced tutoring grammar and I can guarantee that having the first days of those rigorous practices,... Read More

French

I am a natural French speaker. But I don't only master the speaking aspect of that beautiful and nifty language, I have also studied its reading and writing at the highest level. Having attended "Institut La Seve" for nine years and "Institution St. Louis de Gonzague" for six years and having always been one of the top students in French in all my years at those schools - which are two of the very best in my native country Haiti - I needed no more to thrive through tests such as SAT Subject Test... Read More

Microsoft Word

Microsoft Word is constant discovery, discovery of how more efficient and faster one can get time and time again, with formatting text and even other content. And I have been discovering for years now. It is a program that I am much passionate about and for which I have very decent knowledge and skills. In using Word, skill is one of the most important things to work faster and better. What I call "skills" are those little tricks that can only been figured out with certain experience, and just... Read More

Prealgebra

Prealgebra is one of my subjects of excellence, probably because Middle School students are the ones I am most accustomed to as of today.

Studying Prealgebra is the point where nothing must be rushed, made complicated, or mystified. On the contrary, everything must be decoded and simplified, made practical. A certain way, it must look, or at least feel easy for the student. Because when Prealgebra does not feel easy, then Algebra will feel hard. The way to make it feel easy, instead... Read More

Reading

With me, reading is much more than simple encoding, decoding and linking of symbols, it is what it is, critical thinking. I always encourage my students to let their brain do the work, at least try, because this is really the key. Many times, the student thinks that Reading is just like Mathematics or Science, where the "right" is already set and must get gotten using formulas, which is not. The student will never overcome critical thinking if he or she doesn't actually let the brain think critically... Read More

Spanish

I have studied Spanish for five years, during which my instructors have always put much emphasis on the very complex, yet stylish, syntax of the language, as well as its reading and writing. It is such unwavering basis that allowed me to get a score of 730/800 in SAT Subject Test - Spanish, which surprised many people, especially my many Hispanic friends in Miami for such score, even among natural speakers of the language - including those who even immigrated to the US from a Hispanic country... Read More

Writing

Competent writing is one of those tasks that a well prepared student has to be able to do and whose lack can cause a lot of trouble, regardless of that student's subjects of emphasis. Writing is a process and sample, a simple sample. And it is with the regular practice of following that sample that a student gets a better, progressively, but also with paying attention to little details. It starts from a word to a sentence to a paragraph to a text. This is how top quality writing is obtained, and... Read More

English

I am a native Haitian who has had to study academically proper English very hard since 2004. Coming to the United States, I could not believe the "damage" that natural speakers of the languages could do to it, which led me to contend that a person who has actually learned English in the best academic environment - which is my case as I attended one of the very best schools in my country Haiti, "Saint-Louis de Gonzague" - is more suitable to tutor anyone taking an English class instead of a native... Read More

SAT Math

I realized, and experienced the often stressful nature of ACT and SAT. Nevertheless, after taking these, I realized that it's all a matter of preparation. Many times, students are just not well enough prepared, academically and mentally, to take those tests, which are so important in their education. In order to deal with that, I want to pass on those good academic habits that I received over my scholastic career to fellow young people in Miami and the surroundings who are trying to make the leap... Read More

Proofreading

There is no writing without proofreading. It is just that essential. One non-common, yet very effective way that I practice proofreading with my student is by making the student proofread the first time by himself and herself, and develop the habit of proofreading, or having a proofreading attitude, as he or she is writing. The best way to improve is by finding and recognized one's own mistakes. It is something that student very often fail to do, and that I assist them well in doing, for when... Read More

Spelling

I have experience in working on word spelling with kids. And thanks to my experience and my familiarity with elementary and middle school students, I have developed my own tactics, which, as of today, have only made my students better, and led them to make progress much faster.

ACT English

Having emigrated to the United States in the very middle of my senior year, and being faced with many challenges in order to be college-ready in just few months, I realized, and experienced the often stressful nature of ACT and SAT. Nevertheless, after taking these, I realized that it's all a matter of preparation. Many times, students are just not well enough prepared, academically and mentally, to take those tests, which are so important in their education. I thank the strong preparation that... Read More

ACT Math

Back in High School, I realized, and experienced the often stressful nature of ACT and SAT. Nevertheless, after taking these, I realized that it's all a matter of preparation. Many times, students are just not well enough prepared, academically and mentally, to take those tests, which are so important in their education. I thank the strong preparation that I received over years, particularly at my school in my native country Haiti, "Institution Saint Louis de Gonzague", for my success in those... Read More

ESL/ESOL

Being the product of ESL/ESOL education, I have come to figure out so many things about this type of education: the system, the educators, and the students. I have come to realize what the teacher could do more to develop the student but does not do, and what, so often, the student desperately needs from the teacher, but doesn’t receive in knowledge, this leading to the student falling short of success. And this I can assess because I can easily say that I worked my own way to success as an ESL/ESOL... Read More
