Award-Winning Tutors from Florida Atlantic University

I am state certified elementary educator of thirteen plus years. I received my BA in Elementary Education in 1998 along with a certification in teaching English to speakers of other languages(TESOL). I am currently working towards writing children's books, relishing every moment of my journey, and planting a little organic garden.Tutoring is something I enjoy wholeheartedly. It gives me an opportunity to bridge learning gaps that often occur in the classroom or extend learning outside the textbooks. Much of my teaching and tutoring experience involves students from grades K-6 in the areas of: test taking CCGPS(Common Core Georgia Performance Standards), math, reading/comprehension, phonics, grammar/language arts, and science. My goal as a tutor is to create relevant problem solving opportunities that both teacher and student solve and create. In short, I'm enthusiastic about making learning experiences practical and easy to understand.Tutoring sessions will be catered to fit the individual needs of the student. Each student needs a learning experience with a slightly different recipe for achievement. My aim is to incorporate the strengths and interests of each student to create a platform for highly engaging opportunities for practice. With that said, gear up for an incredible journey and let's explore countless ways you can learn and be successful!

Born and raised in Colombia! Fully Fluent in English as well. As a native Spanish speaker, I am eager to help students improve their Spanish reading, writing, and speaking abilities, offering insights into both the language and the rich cultural contexts in which it is used. My background in anthropology and Latin American studies allows me to provide a unique perspective on language learning, connecting linguistic skills with cultural understanding. As a cultural anthropologist, educator, and native Spanish speaker, I am passionate about helping students explore the complexities of human societies, develop critical thinking skills, and master language proficiency. My academic journey, which includes a Master's degree from Florida Atlantic University and ongoing PhD studies at the University of Calgary, has equipped me with a deep understanding of anthropology and interdisciplinary approaches to social sciences. Throughout my career, I have gained extensive experience working with diverse student populations. As a Graduate Teaching Assistant at both Florida Atlantic University and the University of Calgary, I have assisted in designing course materials, facilitated engaging discussions, and provided personalized support to students in subjects such as Introductory Anthropology, Philosophy, and Medical Anthropology. My role as an Adjunct Professor at Florida Atlantic University allowed me to develop a comprehensive curriculum exploring the cultural, historical, and sociopolitical dimensions of peace and violence, encouraging students to analyze complex global issues from an anthropological perspective. I am particularly passionate about tutoring anthropology, Latin American studies, research methods, and Spanish language skills. My approach to tutoring is student-centered, focusing on creating a supportive atmosphere that facilitates open dialogue and intellectual exploration. I believe in adapting my teaching style to meet the individual needs of each student, whether that means providing additional explanations, using visual aids, or relating concepts to real-world examples. For language learners, this might involve immersive conversation practice, culturally relevant materials, or tailored exercises to address specific language learning goals. My teaching philosophy is rooted in the belief that education is a transformative tool for personal growth and social understanding. I strive to make complex anthropological concepts and language skills accessible and relevant to students' lives, encouraging them to think critically about the world around them. I also value inclusivity and diversity in education, having experience working with English as a Second Language (ESL) students and adapting my teaching methods to accommodate various learning styles and backgrounds. Outside of academia, I have a keen interest in museum education and public anthropology. My experiences as a Museum Educator at the Miami Children's Museum and as a Research Intern at History Miami Museum have given me valuable insights into communicating complex ideas to diverse audiences. These experiences inform my tutoring approach, allowing me to make anthropological concepts and language learning engaging and relatable to students from various backgrounds. In my spare time, I enjoy exploring new cultures through travel, participating in academic conferences, and engaging in community-based research projects. These activities not only enrich my personal life but also contribute to my ability to bring fresh perspectives and real-world examples into my tutoring sessions, particularly when it comes to language and cultural studies.

My passion for teaching stems from a deep belief that education empowers students and transforms how they see the world. As both a scientist and educator, I find great joy in that moment when a complex concept suddenly "clicks." I have taught/mentored students from grades 7-12 in life and physical sciences, as well as college-level biology at Rio Salado College and FCS on Loudoun, VA. I hold a Master of Science in Biomedical Science from Florida Atlantic University and a Bachelor of Science in Biological Science from Florida International University, backed by graduate research assistantships and extensive laboratory teaching experience. With over two decades of hands-on laboratory and research experience, I tutor biology, chemistry, and general life sciences. I especially enjoy teaching biology because it reveals how living systems function, from molecules to the human body, and shows students its real-world relevance. I'm committed to helping every student discover their potential.

I'm passionate about tutoring because I want to see the students do their best and succeed in reaching their goals. I enjoy the challenge of solving problems together and experiencing the best possible outcome.

I am dedicated professional with passion for education. I strive to provide personalized and quality tutoring in a timely fashion. I stress the importance of communication with the students and their parents. I do my best to assist my students with their academic success and I strive to keep my commitments with my students and teach them the same. I am always willing to listen to my student's concerns as well as their parents and explore all possible solutions with them.I have BA in Music Education, MA TESOL and M Ed in Curriculum and Instruction in English literature.

My name is Cheyenne Grace, and I hold a Bachelor's degree in Political Science from Florida Atlantic University. With over 2 years of tutoring experience, I specialize in subjects like Algebra, AP U.S. Government & Politics, Math and Creative Writing. My approach centers on adapting my teaching methods to meet the unique needs of each student, whether they are young learners or adults. I am particularly passionate about helping students with diverse learning styles, by tailoring lesson plans that foster understanding and confidence. I believe that every student can excel with the right support and encouragement, and I strive to create a positive and engaging learning environment. In my spare time, I enjoy exploring languages, including Spanish and beginner-level Korean and Japanese, which enriches my teaching perspective.

BA in Italian language and literature with a double minor in Spanish and International Studies from the State University of New York at Binghamton. Currently I am pursuing a MA in Spanish from Florida Atlantic University. I have 5+ years of tutoring in Spanish, French and Italian in all levels K-12, college and professional development. As mentioned above I tutor and teach all the three Romance Languages, however I mostly enjoy teaching Spanish since it is my native language and it is becoming a second language in many major US cities and the most popular foreign language taught within US school curricula. The main goal I have for my students is simple and to the point: being able to communicate in the target L2. I assure them that L2 acquisition is a process that takes time and practice. I also encourage them not to let frustration get on the way of learning and achieving the possibility to communicate in a L2. Outside of academia, what I enjoy the most is to spend as much time possible with my family and travel whenever possible. I am interested in many contemporary issues, such as and not limited to, global warming, gender equality, education, the fight against human trafficking and many other topics.

I have been helping students discover their love of Spanish language and Latin American literature and cultures since 2006. If you've had a hard time with grammar or if you think Spanish is not for you, I can explain complicated structures in a way that will make them easy to understand. I want my students to feel confident in their written and spoken language skills! If practicing your Spanish in preparation for a special trip or class presentation is your thing, I'd be delighted to help you reach your personal goals.

I graduated with a degree in Sociology and a minor in Italian, and I've spent the past few years teaching both English as a Second Language and Italian. I really enjoy helping students feel more confident using a new language in real-life situations, not just in a textbook. I'm currently working toward my Master's in TESOL, which helps me keep improving how I teach and support different learning styles. My goal is to make lessons engaging, practical, and tailored to each student's needs.

I am a recent certified Physician Assistant (PA-C) and graduated with my Masters of Medical Science at Lincoln Memorial University - Debusk College of Osteopathic Medicine on August of 2019. I earned two degrees at Florida Atlantic University (B.S. in Biology & B.S. in Neuroscience and Behavior). Before attending PA school, I worked as a medical assistant for children and adult orthopedic practices.My method for tutoring students to effectively pass the PANCE comes from personal experience. Along with my peers, I was introduced to a successful method that covers every content within the PANCE blueprint. There are numerous mnemonics and strategies that I have learned along the way that will help tremendously. There are multiple studying materials that I can direct my student to use in order to practice their test taking skills. I want to pay it forward, and help those who want to become a PA-C!

I'm passionate about helping students improve and gain confidence in their writing skills. I often focus on improving cohesion in academic papers through the proper use of transitions, language/vocabulary/word-placement, and sentence structure. I am also skilled at helping students articulate and navigate complex ideas and topics. My background in the humanities and the social sciences has provided me with an intensive experience of reading and writing in both creative and academic capacities.

Greetings!I am a graduate of Nova Southeastern University. I received my Master of Science in Educational Leadership. Since graduation, I have been teaching in the public school system. I have also been teaching English online to students in China. My areas of expertise is teaching students grades K-6 in any subject area.I have always had a passion for education and once I started teaching, that passion grew immensely.

After 32 years of teaching reading and writing in elementary school, I believe my knowledge, expertise and personality enable me to make learning interesting. Today's technology provides me with greater options and techniques to make individual learning interesting with real connections in a more engaging and fun way. I spent 12 years working as a reading and writing coach mentoring my colleagues by providing best practices in education. My greatest joys stem from students gaining confidence and becoming successful lifelong learners. In the end. THOSE WHO CAN...TEACH!

As an experienced teacher, I believe that all students, given the right encouragement and guidance, are capable of learning; and it is my responsibility to provide a safe and productive learning environment for their successful achievement.

My passion for teaching and tutoring sparked when I was an undergraduate student at Florida Atlantic University. I was hired as an undergraduate teaching assistant by the biology department to teach a discussion course for both biology 1 & 2. In my discussion courses I had gained experience in effectively communicating scientific concepts to students who were learning the content for the very first time. I had found that teaching students the big picture and conceptual knowledge first helped them digest more difficult information. I would also help students by using analogies and mnemonics to help them remember certain topics more easily! In my experiences as a teaching assistant I learned how to be patient with students when they do not understand right away; and I am able to tell when a student is not comprehending the topic which allows me to switch the way I portray the information. I also like to give visual queues to students to help them see what they are learning about whether by drawing pictures or by showing the student short animations. Also, I have the student teach me back to the best of their ability so I can pin point exactly where they are having trouble. I hope that with my guidance I can help students feel more confident approaching problems that they have not been able to answer before. The main topics that I tutor are biology, algebra 1&2, and pre-calculus. My favorite to tutor is biology because I think it is fascinating to learn how living organisms, especially humans, operate and respond to the environment around them.I earned my bachelors of science in biology at Florida Atlantic University and currently I am working on achieving my masters degree in biomedical science with the prospect of going to medical school. My goal is to continue teaching people throughout my professional career as a physician. When I am not studying in the library or taking classes, I like to be adventurous and spend my time outside. Some of my hobbies include spearfishing, snorkeling, mountain biking, and archery. I also enjoy spending time with close friends and meeting new people.

Name is Mr. Alvarez. If you're interested in learning anything related to photo editing with Photoshop to post-production information. I'm the tutor for you. Graduated back in 2019 for multimedia studies, which encompasses pre-production, post-production, film, animation, and tv. I was an international baccalaureate student, so I'm quite familiar with tutoring other subjects as well.

I am a life long learner. I love to learn, and I love to share what I learn with others. I have three baccalaureate degrees in English, Psychology, and Criminal Justice. Education can be very exciting, and it doesn't have to end in the classroom, however: I also studied animal behavior while in Washington, where I worked with chimpanzees who spoke sign language, and I assisted with research on dolphins while in Turkey.I love animals, as evidenced by the above experience. Otters are my favorite animals, because they make hard work look fun. They need to groom and hunt constantly, but they swim around as though they are always having the best time in the world. I try to apply this otter-esque attitude to everything I do. You never know what you can build out of your interests, or where those interests can take you. Hard work isn't always fun, but if we stay focused and smile along the way, we can do anything!

As a dedicated tutor with over 2-3 years of experience, I am passionate about fostering a love for learning in young students. Currently pursuing my Bachelor's degree in Early Care and Education from Florida Atlantic University, I specialize in elementary subjects such as K-2nd grade English, Math, Reading, Science, and Social Studies. My teaching philosophy centers on creating a supportive and engaging learning environment where students feel confident to explore and ask questions. I believe that every child has unique strengths, and I strive to connect with each student individually, tailoring my approach to meet their needs. Beyond academics, I enjoy reading and exploring new educational resources, which continually enrich my tutoring practice.

I plan for many exciting opportunities for the children to ensure they are stimulated and interested in what they are being taught. During lessons, I guarantee that my plans contain activities which cater to all learning styles."Those who know, do. Those that understand teach."Aristotle

I am a graduate of the U.S. Air Force Academy. Following graduation from the Academy, I spent two years living in a remote village in Zambia where I worked with the Peace Corps to educate villagers about the prevention of malaria, HIV, and tuberculosis, as well as other illness endemic to the region. When I got back from Zambia, I took the MCAT and soon began medical school. I am currently in my final year as a medical student and hope to begin a surgery residency next year. I love to teach, and have years of experience tutoring a wide array of subjects including algebra I and II, trigonometry, precalculus, calculus, statistics, PSAT, SAT math, reading, and writing, ACT math, reading, and science, religion, literature, and many more. I have worked extensively with students taking FLVS classes, guiding them through their assignments and preparing them for their tests. I have also worked with students traveling the equestrian circuit in Wellington. I know that people are capable of much more than they think they are when they have someone that believes in them and is able to act as a teacher and coach. I love to see people reach for their potential and gain confidence along the way. Outside of tutoring, I love to study for medical school, play with my dogs, run and do yoga. Get in touch if you think I might be a good fit for you!

I love tutoring mathematics because it allows me to use my knowledge and experience to help students overcome their difficulties and succeed with math. I know that there is no one-size-fits-all method of tutoring and I enjoy the challenge of tailoring lessons to the student's level of understanding. Whether a student needs clarification or they are missing prerequisite background or they just find the material difficult it is my mission to help them achieve their goals. Guiding students to learn is rewarding in-and-of-itself but beyond that, as they say, "You never know something so well as when you teach it to someone else" and explaining math to a diverse range of students reinforces and deepens my own understanding at every level so I not only tutor and teach others but I learn from that experience as well.

Certified ACT and SAT educator and former ACT and SAT testing administrator.

I am passionate about helping students because I like to provide confidence, and independence. My experience working with students is that of building trust, and confidence, and making sense of the material. I like to be sure students understand before they move forward. I received my education from a university in Florida and learned fluent Spanish from home. I am fluent without an accent in either English or Spanish. I have a Bachelor's degree in Finance and Business Administration. I tutor in Spanish and English to children as well as adults. I enjoy tutoring both languages because I am proficient in both. My teaching philosophy and style are that of a mentor relaxed style. I am here to coach a student to improve and provide support and confidence. My interest outside of tutoring are playing the piano, and practicing. I also enjoy spending time with my family.

As a qualified engineer, I bring analytical skills and practical insight to teaching math and physics. I simplify complex concepts, connect theory to real-world applications, and build students' confidence through personalized guidance. My teaching has helped students achieve high ranks and excellent scores in competitive exams. Through focused practice and strategies, I develop their understanding, accuracy, speed, and independent thinking, preparing them for lasting academic success.

I have been a professional tutor since January 2016, but I was always the one asked to lead study groups. Since Elementary school I've been known as the person in class to clarify concepts that were unclear during the lecture. I work well with all age groups, and have found that individual, personalized approaches work best for each student. I love to learn and I am excited to help others find their love for education as well.

I taught AP Human Geography for 4 years at the high school level, and IB Social and Cultural Anthropology SL for 12 years . Since retiring last June, I found that I missed student contact and the chance to help students achieve their goals. I had excellent test score results for both AP Human Geography and IB Social and Cultural Anthropology SL. Therefore, tutoring seems to offer an opportunity to continue doing what I love, but on a part-time basis.

As a dedicated tutor with a Master's degree in Physics specializing in Quantum Computing from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, I have over 5 years of experience in teaching and tutoring STEM subjects, particularly in physics, chemistry, and mathematics. My approach emphasizes personalized learning, adapting lessons to meet each student's unique needs and fostering critical thinking skills. I believe that these subjects are not just academic requirements but vital problem-solving tools that help students engage with the world in meaningful ways. My passion for teaching stems from my own transformative experiences in physics, and I strive to create those "light bulb" moments for my students. Additionally, my background as a TA in college-level courses has enhanced my ability to convey complex concepts in an accessible manner, ensuring that students build a solid foundation for future learning.

Hi my name is Josh! I am an English teacher in Palm Beach County (7th) and I have also taught Math/Science 5th grade. I am very caring and cater my tutoring individually to each student.

I am a graduate of Florida Atlantic University where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education in grades K-6th. With this I am also ESOL endorsed. I taught grades 1-3 and 6th grade as a Reading Intensive Teacher. After nine wonderful years of teaching, I decided to leave the classroom to educate my own children at home. During my teaching journey, I've learned that all students are unique in their own learning styles. This was difficult to tackle in a classroom setting of 30 students. This is what drove me to home educate and begin my online tutoring journey. I began by teaching students from mainland China the English language. While I love teaching all subjects, including math, I am very passionate about teaching Reading and Language Arts. In my experience, this content area is one that many of my students struggled with. I have many years of experience with prepping students for state testing and what those entail. However, my focus is to help current students find the joy in reading again. I am a firm believer in that reading should be a daily practice and one that should be enjoyed.

Everyone is unique and has his or her own way of learning.

Hello. My name is Ady. I have a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education, English, and Public Safety Administration from Florida Atlantic University. I am currently working on degrees in other areas and hope to pursue my masters someday. I am passionate about helping students, because I enjoy seeing them learning and gaining something from my lessons. I have taught students from Kindergarten through second grade for around five years in a classroom environment. I have also taught conversational English to adults and English to younger elementary age students online.I currently tutor the subjects of: reading and phonics. I also work with Elementary students from Kindergarten through second grade and English Language Learners. My favorite subjects to tutor are conversational English and reading, because it's wonderful to see the improvement that students make while they're working on these subjects. My teaching philosophy is that education should be more interactive and my tutoring style includes having a more relaxed conversational format.

I have many years experience of highly successful teaching mathematics, ranging from basic math to calculus. As a teacher with close ties to my university, I am able to help my students to maximize their time using targeted revision and exam techniques. I am considered to be patient and adaptable and many of my students come to me by recommendation.

I'm a patient and thoughtful tutor who enjoys helping students build confidence and understand concepts beyond memorizing answers. As someone who loves reading and exploring new ideas, I value curiosity and critical thinking. My teaching approach focuses on breaking down complex topics into simple steps while adapting to each student's learning style.

I am a graduate of Florida Atlantic University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in English with a focus on literature. During my time at FAU I developed a great passion for helping other students understand the mechanics of effective writing. I enjoy any opportunity to help others in brainstorming, outlining, and proofreading their writing assignments. I also minored in history, which is a subject I have always had a deep interest in. There are so many interesting and relevant things to gain from history, literature, and writing. I believe that when these subjects are given the proper context and are explained in a compelling way, students are more likely to develop their own personal interest and understanding, which I regard as the key to academic success. In my spare time I like to write songs, play guitar, and study all types of music.

I am a graduate in Florida Atlantic University. I received my bachelor's degree in accounting with a focus on math and numbers. I have a great desire to help the students with math struggles. Understanding math takes time but with practice, the problems will become easier and lighter for them. I have been on Mathnasium, where I tutored kids in elementary and middle school in the past I would like to continue that path for preparing students to understand math better and make it more interesting, rather than boring and advanced.
