Award-Winning Elementary Math Tutors in Jacksonville, FL

...then enrolled at the University of Mississippi, where I studied mathematics and earned my Masters of Arts degree. As a result of my academic experience I love tutoring math, particularly Algebra and Geometry. I also have a large amount of fondness for test prep. Although I'm happy to work with both in-person and online students, I believe that I would be most helpful to students who are looking for an online tutor, as I currently...

...subjects, my students develop their skills over time and improve their mastery of math on a daily basis. As I value students' education, I believe in a student-centered style of teaching--partly because students love to take ownership of their own learning, but also because putting students in control of their education enables them to remember information readily. Through this approach, they develop thinking skills by doing tasks independently or in small groups. They are also...

...majored in Business Administration and Transportation and Logistics. I then taught several years of middle school Language Arts/Reading and Math. I am state certified in several different areas and have years of experience with private and virtual academic tutoring. It is of my character to always put forth exceptional effort and to always go above and beyond what I am challenged to do. I am a hard working, dedicated, and creative individual who is passionate...

...I have decided to stay here. I am currently a sophomore at Florida State College at Jacksonville, and about to graduate with my A.A. degree. In my freshman year, I got a job opportunity as a math tutor at my college. I have been tutoring math for 2 years since then. My job was majorly staying in the class and helping students who need help; I was an assistant to the professor. I loved it...

...and mathematics with students who were behind grade level in elementary and middle school and also as a substitute teacher for middle and high school students. I have over 150 classroom hours as a teaching intern in a high school history class at Atlantic Coast High School. I have tutored for over 5 years. When I'm not working, I enjoy spending time with my son, my dog and my two cats, and listening to music.

...teaching is not just to help you pass a quiz, exam, or course; it is to arm you with the necessary knowledge and understanding to enable you to succeed in the future. If one approach does not succeed, I am prepared to come at the problem from a different direction. Real-world problems often require unorthodox and novel solutions. You deserve an instructor equipped to provide you with an unorthodox and novel learning experience!

...over 15 years with students in small groups and individually. My primary subject of tutoring is in math, which I love. To me, there is no better feeling than seeing the light come on when a concept that was "too hard" becomes understandable to a student. I also love that students from past years will approach me in public and share their successes and thank me for the help I was able to give them.

Nothing gives me greater satisfaction than seeing the look on a student's face when he/she has just grasped a difficult concept.... My teaching philosophy is difficult concepts are merely combinations of simple concepts. If you show a student that all the pieces are straightforward, they broaden their horizons and reach great heights.... In a first session with a new student, I would find out what interests them so I can draw analogies from that area. I...

...experiences have proven that I am an effective tutor. I am currently completing my final year of a Master's in Early Childhood Education at Georgia State. I am a certified elementary school teacher, and hold an endorsement to teach students who speak a language other than English as a first language. At the core of my teaching style is my ability to create a supportive learning environment, strong organizational plan, and a setting in which...

...develop conceptual understanding in our clients. I believe that once a student understands something at the conceptual level, he or she will be much better prepared for the topic, not only in the specific test we are preparing for, but anywhere else it may come up. Memorizing words or equations might help somebody in the short term, but understanding why that word means what it means, or what an equation is actually depicting is worth...

...the U.S. Virgin Islands and moved to Jacksonville to complete my education. I have made Jacksonville my home and enjoying living in the quiet city. I enjoy working with children and have a variety of experiences including Sunday school teacher, Duval County Schools Teacher, Extended day teacher and even experience as a baby sitter. I look forward to working with your future leader and providing the tools necessary for your future leader to realize his/her...

...Photography from the Savannah College of Art and Design. While I'm a photographer by trade, I also have a passion for and expertise in Math and the Natural Sciences -- as well as French and Spanish, having studied and worked in both Paris and Central America. While I'm proficient now, I struggled with both languages early on, and understand the challenges of both starting a new language and in moving from a conversational to a...

...a Clinician, focusing on helping children with learning difficulties and disabilities. I have particular experience working with children with dyslexia. I can help with reading comprehension, fluency, and spelling. I use symbol imagery for phonological and orthographic processing to help the student "picture" what they are reading and spelling. I have been helping children read for 7 years. I have also worked as a substitute teacher for Duval County Schools. I really enjoy tutoring elementary...

...on my dissertation (centered on genetics). I am comfortable with teaching mathematics through Calculus I (or whatever the equivalent.) I am extremely competent with statistics, as it comprises an integral part of both my TA work and research. I also excel in all areas of academic writing. I am most suited to test prep tutoring sessions: I have invariably excelled at all standardized tests. I am also familiar with ACT and SAT formats, and the...

...a B.S. in Elementary Education from The Florida State University in 2009. In addition to my role as a classroom teacher, I have worked as an online and after-school tutor. Everyone talks about the "new math" that is being taught in the classrooms today, but I don't look at it as new math. Instead, I see it as the same math, just in a new way of thinking. I love asking students the "why" and...

...engraved in my brain over the years somehow. My business card reads, "Do you hate Algebra? Well, I love it!" And it's not just my ability to teach the subject matter. I have a lovable personality that many seem to gravitate to! I explain problems in their simplest form making grasping the concepts super easy. Outside of tutoring, I am a married mom of 3 who loves writing poetry, reading books and photography. I look...

I currently teach Algebra and Geometry at a private high school for students with learning differences in Jacksonville, FL. I enjoy their light bulb moments and seeing them succeed where they had not before. I look forward to meeting more students and bringing them to their light bulb moments.

...was not due to lack of intelligence, but simply not understanding. I learn differently than most students, which is why I decided to tutor. I want to help others who are in my situation: students who are made to feel that because they learn differently they have a problem. As a teacher, I believe it is important to make sure students feel confident when doing their work. It is now my job in the role...

...becoming more and more common. A holistic approach to medicine is best when treating a patient who may not be able to afford health insurance or medications and is the only way to prevent medication dependency or advancing of disease. I was able to teach the signs and symptoms of hyperglycemia, as well as podiatric and dental maintenance, to a group at a homeless shelter through Volunteers In Medicine. For this group, seeing a family...

I graduated from LSUS in 1985 and have worked with computers for the last 25 years.

I have tutored the subjects of Chemistry, World History, American History, History, Algebra I, Geometry, Pre-Calculus, Trigonometry, and Algebra II.
