Simple Steps. The main key to successful learning.

To be honest I do not have any professional experience tutoring. However, throughout my entire educational career I have always been able to grasp material before my classmates and hence help them grasp the material themselves. I am very patient and am able to break down any subject into very simple and easy to understand steps to ensure the students' success. ACT 32 AP Scholar
Whatever works best for the student. I understand that everyone learns best in their own way so I am very flexible to what works best for each students' needs.

My comments on tutoring PSAT : Scored 760/800 on only try; have previously taught SAT prep at Kaplan.

I have 10 years of teaching experience with students in math and chemistry. For 4 of those years I ran a tutoring business in North Carolina working mainly with college prep students needing AP course and test prep help in math, chemistry and statistics. I have also worked as an analytical chemist for 9 years, working in pharmaceuticals and forensics labs. Additionally I have served as an assistant coach for the Ohio math team that represents the state in national math competitions.

Style is one-on-one. The tutoring is flexible to accommodate different people's styles. However, tutoring is what one makes of it.
I work in the compliance/legal field in banking with over 15 years of experience with an educational foundation of a B.A. in Economics and a J.D. (i.e., law degree). I'm multi-lingual with fluency in Spanish, German and Polish. I have well over a decade of tutoring experience predominantly in economics, various math topics, Spanish and various subjects of law, in addition to LSAT prep.

I have earned my Bachelor's degree in Family and Consumer Sciences with an emphasis in Elementary Education.

I am currently working towards earning my Master's in Early Childhood Education.
I truly love the field of education. I recognize that all students learn in different ways. I know certain teaching methods work for some students and not others. It is important to teach in several different styles.

I believe in lifelong education as indicated in my diversified background. I have experience in education, government, and business, obviously, I am always interested in a challenge and assisting students who are having difficulties is one of those challenges. I have just returned from a year in Italy where I worked with high school seniors to be admitted to universities in Britain, Europe and United States. Also, I tutored students in English and am certified to teach English as a Second Language.
If I can be a motivating influence in a young person's life, I could not think of a more rewarding achievement. As a teacher, I am organized and prepared to find and use any method, technique, and hook in a collaborative effort for performance improvement or to meet the expectations of any individual student. The core value of my life has been education in many different forms.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love working with children of all ages and I believe that all children should have an equitable education. Because of the skills and abilities I possess in reading I have been able to help my own child achieve beyond her grade level and she is currently in the gifted program for reading. Because I am a school counselor by profession I make sure that I always listen to students and help them overcome any obstacles they may face. I believe that with individual attention all students are capable of excelling in their academics.
During my undergraduate studies at OSU I was trained by Americorps to tutor elementary students in reading and math. I worked for two years in the Columbus Public School System helping students that were behind their grade level in those subject areas. In my current high school position I teach a Career Based Intervention class and I assist students with thei ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Graduating from a liberal arts univeristy with a Bachelor's degree in Biology along with a minor in Chemistry has provided for me an incredibly well rounded educational experience. I have a solid understanding of the the natural sciences along with comprehensive lab experience in anatomy, physiology, organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry, along with other disciplines. As a Junior and Senior I found it very rewarding to help the younger students grasp biochemical concepts.
Since I find Biochemical processes so exciting, it is easy for me to get other students excited about them as well. Many students feel that the sciences are boring and dull. However, when I explain the processes to the students in their own terms instead of the textbooks they begin to realize that it can be fun! The first step to getting a student to understand the natural sciences is to spark some interest. This ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have taught at 3 community colleges algebra I, II, geometry, and trigonometry. I have 5 years teaching high school algebra and geometry. I am certified to teach in Maryland and my Ohio teaching certificate is pending. I have also edited math textbooks for McGraw-Hill. I have tutored individual students both in the capacity of my regular teaching jobs as well as a private tutor.
I prefer whole class instruction where students work together to determine mathematical knowledge and develop skills. As the teacher, I prefer to facilitate by choosing the lesson topics aligned with curriculum with activities that promote maximum learning by students cooperatively discovering mathematical concepts.

A Little Bit About Me...

Being a current student myself, I can appreciate the hardships and struggles of education. I feel that you must always level with your students, no matter what the age. The students are the ones who must lead the class. However, we as educators have a duty to guide and to nourish this idea. We must be leaders who encourage a positive and productive learning environment, while also maintaining an enjoyable experience. I believe in a split between communicative and explicit teaching. Students are given input through examples and other meaningful activities. They then are encouraged to attempt their own output through group work, homework, or discussion. At this point, students are prepared to solidify their learning with charts, graphs, mnemonic devices, and/or questions/answer sessions. Finally, new material is segued into the review, restarting the learning cycle. This overlap ... read more

In high school, I served as a tutor for elementary school students for the state program Ohio Reads. At the University of Pittsburgh, I earned a BA in English Writing with minors in Chemistry and Studio Art. I have extensive experience in technical and laboratory writing, critical analysis, critiques and creative writing from related college coursework. I frequently aided fellow classmates and students in improving their writing independently. I have extensive experience working with the internet, Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Publisher. I have completed four years of Spanish coursework and can tutor at the elementary and middle school levels.
I believe a supportive environment is critical for an excellent learning experience. First, I work to set up an environment of mutual respect, a place where the student knows I respect him or her and the student respects me. To ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I've worked with both high school and college students, both gifted and disadvantaged students, and I believe that the key to being a successful tutor is understanding your student and how he/she learns. Through my experiences, I've learned how to explain subject matter in a way that enables students to repeat back to me in their own words what I just explained. This is critical. I believe students learn best by understanding first, and memorizing when applicable. I'm able to gauge where my students are in their education and get them where they need to be.
I am a recent graduate of The Ohio State University, where I earned my BS in Microbiology. My strong background in science and mathematics allowed me to tutor students in both chemistry and microbiology during my time as an undergraduate. Being the daughter of an English teacher, my writing skills were further polished by time s ... read more
