"I worked for the University of Florida Athletic Association tutoring student-athletes in Advanced Sociological Theory. This was a challenging experience as I had to make very dense, academic readings accessible to students and help them communicate ideas through writing. I have also tutored high school students for the SAT and ACT. In my spare time, I like to play guitar and follow my favorite sports teams."

In addition to my experience tutoring at MacCormick Secure Center, I have worked as a swim instructor for children from the ages of 3 to 15.

" I strive to understand each of my students as a unique individual, allowing me to successfully pinpoint the most effective teaching style for him/her. As a self-proclaimed jack-of-all-trades, I prefer a well-rounded and holistic approach to education. Memorization can only take a student so far, and a genuine grasp of a subject can only be achieved through an understanding of its many nuances. Tutoring is a terrific method for reinforcing what the students experience in the classroom, and I think it should also be used as an opportunity to approach the material in a fresh new way.." ...

"I understand that everyone's brain works differently and that school is easy only for those whose way of thinking matches the style of teaching. I try to get the student to understand the problem with his or her own way of thinking, often by breaking the problem down into smaller and smaller pieces. Once the student understands the problem, the solution is easy!."

"and World history, and I am well versed in both areas. My student evaluations were always very high and I focused on making history fun and relevant to things happening today. I try to take history from boring facts to interesting connections that tell a story and explain why events come about. I also try to focus on helping students learn to express their ideas through writing, both in formal essays and in-class. This includes writing well thought out thesis statements, analyzing the material, and making the correct connections from the material given to them, whether it is from a textbook or primary sources. Most importantly, I love ...

" Students also cannot help but compare themselves with their peers around them, and often become discouraged when they cannot seem to understand what so many people around them appear to grasp in an instant. This problem of student discouragement is a serious one, because learning starts with motivation; students will not be motivated to learn in an environment where they feel overwhelmed, scared, or unintelligent. That's where tutoring comes in. I've found that the best way for anyone to learn is by meeting with a teacher one-on-one." ...
