Experience Summary
As a college athlete I always have been encouraged to help out the community. Because of my high level of math, I knew that I could really help others learn the material in a fun way. Math is something that has always been easy to me, and I have completed through calc 1,2,3 and Differential Equations. I scored in the top 96 percentile in arithmetic based math on my ADHD testing in 2006.
I volunteer as a baseball coach with kids at all ages and skill levels so I am fully aware that different kids learn at different levels in different ways. I am there to serve them, they do not owe me anything, and I owe them everything. It is my job to help them out in the subject they need to succeed in.
Teaching Style
I am very interactive with the student and I want them to see me as a friend. I for one do not like to be told what to do and how to do it, that never helps me learn. It is better when you feel you are working towards a common goal with your superior. I want my student to feel free to talk to me about anything, and to enjoy learning the material he or she is struggling with. You simply do not learn as much when you dread coming into the classroom everyday. I like to make games out of the work. Whether that has to do with an intensive game to really build the learning level, or a game just to release some tension and build my students confidence.
