My comments on tutoring Pre-Calculus : Completed with a B in Spring 2013 and have a better understanding after completing Calculus Part 1.

My name is Kevin Guevara and have been a college student for 3 years now, and am pursing a career in Electronics, Electrical or Mechanical Engineering. Just obtained my Associates Degree in Math & Science. 3.18 combined GPA in College, 3.34 Transferable GPA. I plan on attending Cal Poly Pomona, CSU Fullerton, or UC Riverside next fall 2016.
I like to explain and show the student how to complete a problem. I do this 2 more time with different questions and then proceed to see if the student understands how to complete it on his/her own. I am open to most styles of teaching if a preferred style is requested.

My comments on tutoring Pre-Calculus : Pre-Calculus introduces the idea of limits and Derivatives. Limits will test your ability to interpret graphs along with its continous or discontinous domain. I never really took this course as I jumped straight into calculus but I believe my abilities in Calculus will be of great help in this subject.

I believe my experience falls directly on the amount of effort I have put into the subjects. Coming from another country ad having a lack of communication due to an absence of knowledge of the English language, I have battled my way through school. I have had to put the time and effort into every subject I learned and will not hesitate to share that knowledge with any other student. My experience and abilities are demonstrated really by my efforts and quantity of knowledge of the subjects.
I think the easiest teaching style is to show students how every concept relates. How it relates to other subjects previously learned, why it relates to the real world and why should it relate to school.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have 9 years of experience teaching high school; all courses - AP Calculus, pre-calculus, algebra 2, geometry, algebra, pre-algebra (including special needs and english learners), and practical applications. Over the last 20 years, I have tutored students in all of the above subjects as well as elementary math concepts, writing strategies, and reading recovery. I am NCLB certified and focused on the defined national & state standards of each subject.
I use Socratic questioning strategies and experiential learning to ensure that students understand why a concept applies rather than just memorizing formulas. I use manipulatives and visual aids to ensure that multiple modalities are integrated. I work with the whole student as a person, identifying how the student learns and teaching the student how to adapt various teaching styles to his/her learning style.

More About This Tutor...

I have been tutoring and teaching mathematics up to and including calculus while I was in college to the present day. most students that I have tutored I find to have a minor miss-perception of what they have failed to comprehend. To find these areas of confusion I need to have discussions with the students. These problems are usually easy to overcome once the student is aware of a different perspective. I enjoy helping students overcome these hurdles and go on to succeed in math.
I have taught with lecture and with physical objects that I have created. My teaching style will vary with what the student needs. Some students need a manipulative to see the concept. Others need to hear or see it in another way. Adapting my style to fit their need is one of my strong points.

In all my years of experience the tool that has proven the most effective is engaging the student in the lesson. In doing so, the student retains more information and I get a better idea of what the student is having difficulty with. Hence, I am able to be a more effective tutor.
I have been tutoring for over ten years. The subjects range from basic elementary math to college level calculus. I am also fluent in Spanish and have tutored students in basic speech and literature.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate of CSUSB, I found that mathematics is my passion for learning. I have earned a BA in Mathematics and also have an AA in Mathematics and Science from Victor Valley College. I am also IV certified due to one year of nursing school which has also broadened my knowledge of human science and the medical field. In the last four years I have tutored in Algebra, Geometry, Biology, and Chemistry
My familiar expertise in tutoring has been with middle school and high school students. My teaching style changes with every different student because everyone learns at their own pace and style. Making my student feel comfortable in a work environment is very important to me. I am very enthusiastic and believe that with hard work and dedication, together that tutor and student is able to achieve success. I look forward to teaching and learning along with my students to have a greater ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I enjoy seeing children discover the world around them in their own ways. Therefore, I teach the importance of working things out until you understand it for yourself. Children will meet and often surpass any goal that is given to them if you show that you believe in them. I use a hands-on approach, as much as possible, with a problem-solving emphasis. I firmly believe that a child remembers things more if he is able to work it out for himself. As a result, I take more of a mentoring position the older the child is. It was in this way that my daughter received both an AA and an AS degree the night she received her high school diploma.
I began teaching at Hesperia Christian in 1995. First, I substituted and then taught part-time, two to four subjects a year: Advanced Math and Drama, 5 years; Biology, 1 year; and Advanced Drama, 3 years. When my son started seventh grade, I b ... read more

I am currently teaching at Kids College in a community college in Orange County. I have the passion to teach mathematics from elementary to high school level in a classroom setting. In addition, I also teach 1-1 sessions for the No Child Left Behind. I love participating in this program because the children need my help and it's rewarding the growth and progress that I see from day to day.
One of my best attributes is patience. I try to explain concepts differently if students don't initially understand. Teaching math requires this because there are many instances when students lose their focus. My goal is to try to relate math into something they can relate to their lives, which makes the student math experience interesting.

I have earned 2 degrees, B.S. in Business Administration with a concentration in Finance and an MBA with a concentration in Finance. These degrees have enabled me to have much improved skills in paper writing and math. I have done extremely well in English, Philosophy, and Business writing. In 2008, I became a substitute teacher and it was a great experience working with children of all grades and subjects. Arabic is my native language. I took Arabic classes from K-12 and completed mandatory Arabic examinations by the government of education, which I then earned a certificate of excellence. Furthermore, French is my third language and took classes from K-12 and a college course. I believe I can tutor French at the beginner's level.
I have always been fond of children and teaching. I had a reputation of being a great substitute teacher at different schools. I am a firm believer in h ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a great number of years working with children concerning the teaching of math and I really do enjoy working with them, truly when they get the correct answer! I feel every child has a want to learn, some just to show it. I love to see the children smile so I find reason to make them smile and I make sure the reason is valid. I do know the answer is, all children can smile!
Through the year of 2008 to current times, I am self employed as a college math tutor at Cal State University. From 2001 to 2008 I was a student at Cal State and also a part time tutor at high schools for the San Bernardino Unified School District. From 2000 to 2001 I was a Math Instructor's Teacher's aid at the San Bernardino Valley College in college math courses for 3 courses.

I have a B.S. Degree in computer engineering and minor in mathematics which enabled me to be very knowledgeable in math, physics, biology and chemistry. In addition, I have tutored math to my peer students and was employed in an elementary to tutor math to younger students. During last couple of years I have tutored many students and I was complemented on my ability to help them solve problems.
I love tutoring to all my students because It is such a pleasure to see them solving a problem and enjoying their accomplishments. I believe everybody will come to enjoy math as I do, once they realize how much fun it is.

A Little Bit About Me...

Curry Educational Services in Burbank, California from 1996 – 1998. I provided personal tutoring services for high school students in the Burbank/Glendale area of Los Angeles. Subjects generally included high school math and physics. St. Michael’s High School (SMHS) in Los Angeles, California from 1991 – 1992. For two years as a teacher, I taught five classes (25-35 students) per day in algebra, geometry, advanced math, and physics. Basically, I was the upper math department. I also assisted the coach for the school’s academic decathlon team. SMHS was a Catholic all-girls high school until it was merged with Regina Caeli High School a few years later. SMHS no longer exists as a high school.
I work best with small classes or one on one tutoring. I am able to explain things in several different ways. San Diego State University (SDSU) in San Diego, California from 9/1993 – 6/199 ... read more
