Award-Winning Geometry Tutors in Duval County, FL

...be a great tutor, you have to learn what makes sense for each individual. It is my job to find the right language to communicate in so that the information makes sense. Whether it is through hands-on-learning, visual props, or by simply listening and asking question, I can accommodate any student and their learning style. I believe that learning is understanding the material- not just memorizing it. I take it as a personal challenge to...

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 would also assess what they know already on the topic we will be studying so I know more clearly what I should assist them with.

Throughout all of these experiences and opportunities and interactions with such a variety of subject matter, ages of students, and settings of instruction, I feel that I have found my niche within the world of education.
