About Sarah

Before I start tutoring a student, I like to update my knowledge of whatever subject we'd be working on so that I can explain the information as thoroughly and efficiently as possible. Patience is crucial when it comes to teaching, and having a wider understanding of a topic is beneficial in maintaining that patience while also finding alternative ways of relaying the material.

I love to learn and to help others learn. While getting good grades is always the goal, my focus is on helping the student retain the material well enough to not only pass the class but also to aid them in understanding the next subject. I have a penchant for patterns and metaphors, and while my main specialty is math, communicating those skills to all students has proven successful in my experience.

I'm able to pick up concepts pretty quickly and easily, so in school people would often come to me for help with their schoolwork. I realized that I am pretty good at teaching and that I liked doing it, so I started tutoring my peers a few times a week until I graduated.

I'm currently in my sophomore year of college at UCF, studying forensic science with a focus on chemistry. In high school I was in the AP and AICE programs, and I scored in the 95th percentile on my SAT. I was also in my school's business magnet, where I got certified in Microsoft, Powerpoint, and Excel; competing in computer skills, I placed 2nd in FBLA Regionals two years in a row. Due to my performance throughout high school, I was awarded the Florida Academic Scholarship through Bright Futures.

About the lesson

I prefer to begin by identifying a primary goal for the student, whether it be a good grade or improvement of overall understanding. Next, I ask the student what their preferred style of learning is (i.e. visual or hands-on learning) and what learning methods they could benefit from (analogies, comparisons, real-life scenarios, etc.). Finally, I like to establish a code of communication between the student and I; being on the same page is critical in a successful student-tutor relationship.

A lot of my work has been with my peers, including older students depending on what they're studying. In school, teachers would occasionally volunteer me to tutor some of the younger students as well as intelectually disabled students, both of whom I was able to work very well with.
