A Little Bit About Me...

For kids up to 12 years old, I use a variety of methods and instructional tools such as colorful foam and board books, coloring books, flashcards, posters, videos, audios, and games among others (some materials may be at an extra cost). Puzzles, music, drawing, and physical activity are important in a child’s world of learning through exploration and critical thinking. Kids’ lessons usually start with common vocabulary such as shapes, colors, food, family members, etc. and gradually transition to simple 2-3 word sentences after acquiring a certain amount of vocabulary.

Math, Accounting tutor, Algebra, Geometry,Trig

Have tutored for five years with Wyzant, Tutoring Center of Herndon and on my own. My main concern is too make sure student is confortable in his/her understanding the subject material. The money part of the education of young people is really not a priority per se unless the individual student gets an understanding and hopefully confidence in taking on the subject at hand I tutor mainly in Math (Algebra, Geometry and Trig, but also Accounting,social studies, Finance, English , Reading Comp, Vocabulary
Laid back but serious as student learning subject matter is the most important factor in yuoring.

Prior Planning Prevents Pitifully Poor Performance!

I am flexible and adapt to the students ability to learn. Some people are auditory while others are visual and after an assessment, it is best to know which approach to take to best help someone learn.

I like to make the students think logical instead of methodically deriving the answers. I try to concentrate on teaching problem solving skills, as this would strengthen their base. I tutor my peers and help them understand the programming concepts that pose a challenge for many. I was also involved in Society of Women in Engineering organization, where we visited middle schools to mentored girls to pursue science subjects. I believe teaching is a gift and sharing knowledge is the best way to accept this gift. I am patient, easy going, and considerate with kids. I love listening to them and believe they are great teachers to us at times. I like to hold intellectual conversations with them and also play games such as chess, scrabble, suduko.

More About This Tutor...

I am a former student at University of Central Florida where I was a tutor for the Department of Finance and Real Estate. I also tutored my colleagues in subjects such as accounting and algebra. I enjoy making seemingly, complex curriculum simple and enjoyable to learn by sharing my knowledge and passion for the subject. My areas of expertise are economics, finance, managerial accounting and algebra. To accompany my three degrees in business I have 2+ years of experience in finance/analytics.
I teach by asking questions that force students to learn the material rather than memorizing steps to solve problems. I also use examples, sometimes not in the subject being taught, to explain a concept. A student can expect me to be a resourceful tutor who will motivate him or her to succeed.

A Little Bit About Me...

Education is like a meal ticket. Children need to eat, breed and have a thirst for knowledge. As teacher, students need to be taught knowledge as information is received for food nouirshment for their bodes. Having a thirst for education lead to opportunities for their children to be able to provide for oneself and able to put food on the table for others.
I have been teaching/tutoring for over nine years for public schools and citywide programs. I provided appropriate educational instructions though a combination of direct and indirect services to meet specific needs of students with disabilities in the least restrictive environment.

I really enjoy working with people of all ages, from the infant to the elderly. I believe learning and education is a life-long process, that does not cease once an individual graduates form high school and/or college. I believe that teaching through hands-on training and/or interaction is a great approach. Not only will the person learn the material, but they are given examples of ways to apply what they have learned. Therefore, learning through application, rather than memorizing materials in order to pass a test, for example. My ultimate goal is to make a positive impression on my students lives, so that they will enjoy learning and want to teach and help others.
