I am a current international (korean), sophomore Economics major student at James Madison University in Harrisonburg, VA. I have taught students since I was in high school. I have several tutoring experiences from volunteering at Churches in the DC metropolitan area to private 1 on 1 tutoring. I enjoy teaching a lot, and I really love it when students come to me with happy faces after doing well on their tests. I am able to teach different subjects, but my strongest area is math, especially algebra. I also like to teach English (2310 on SAT - 730 Reading, 780 Writing, 800 Math). I look forward to meeting many students. I like to teach students not only the material but also how to study in general. I am sure learning how to study will help students throughout their lives.

Desire to help students learn how to tackle mathematical concepts on their own rather than just showing them how to do it. Fairly patient as long as I feel a student is trying.

Because I understand what its like to not get a particular subject I will explain every problem of difficulty step by step to ensure you understand the problem. So that when it comes to test time, you will As it. I love teaching math any question is a good one and never a stupid one... well maybe not never. I have taken pretty much all the courses that leads up to calc 2. I always struggled in math in high school so I completely understand what its like being lost in a math course. When teachers have no idea how to teach, when you dont know anyone in the class and when tutors cost too much. So with my low rate (compared to everyone else) I plan on getting you to the top of your class by answering every question.

The mission of my teaching ministry is to help form competent, ethical and service oriented professionals. One of the most satisfying aspects of my teaching career has been helping students excel in quantitative reasoning and oral and written communication. I have taught finance, economics and quantitative methods at the undergraduate and graduate levels for more than ten years. I have worked in the financial services industry for more than thirty years. My teaching is quantitative in method and interactive in style. I focus on "why" before moving to "how." I am patient and willing to try different learning approaches to achive my student's objectives.

I have been blessed with professors at the university level who understand the importance of one-on-one instruction. Through the "creativity" of thoughtful instructors I have seen myself grow and develop in ways that I hadn't thought possible. Every student learns differently, and once the instructor gets to know the student well enough and is able to tailor their lessons to the needs of the student, true learning happens. Teaching isn't just about preparing a student for a test; teaching is about creating and inspiring the desire to learn within the student so that they will be learn, not just because they are forced to, but because they are thirsty for knowledge. I have spent several years as a student and tutor at the university level. I am planning to enter medical school in the Fall of 2012 and as such have developed a strong foundation in the sciences throughout my undergraduate ed

My students in college say that I have a laid-back style, with a sense of humor and a willingness to help students who need anything. I believe in using a variety of teaching methods to help students learn in their own ways, whether they are visual, auditory, or kinesthetic learners. With a background in theater, I try to use my creativity to make learning fun. I love teaching! I'm a people person who enjoys working with all kinds of people. I have a bachelor's degree in Drama, a music minor, and a Master's degree in English education. I have 7 years' experience teaching English at the college level. I also wrote entertainment articles for a local magazine for 4 years, and I have a book published. I'm eager to see what I can do for you!

My experiences have spanned all ages and types of children's learning abilities. From a church setting, to a public school to a driver training car. As a substitute teacher, I worked on developing a good rapport with the students. And was always willing to assist them in working towards understanding the concepts before them. I am very patient and understanding with the children, because a stressful environment is not conducive to learning. I believe that a child should be able to learn while they are having fun and that positive reinforcement can go a long way towards helping develop good study skills. I have a bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering and was a software engineer for over 25 years. In 2003, I was certified for Middle School Mathematics in Massachusetts. I have enjoyed being a substitute teacher over 200 days in various Middle and High Schools. I have worked for 20

The underlying theme of my teaching is to excite and challenge students about the power and beauty of math and science. My approach emphasizes the aesthetics of rigor as a stepping stone to the development of new material within the context of existing knowledge, and students are encouraged to seek elegant methodologies wherever possible. I believe that successful teaching involves a careful combination of art and science, wherein technical skills are complemented by a kind and patient temperament that seeks to develop rapport with students across the spectrum of abilities. Moreover, a strong sense of personal enthusiasm should be demonstrated to students on a consistent basis for them to recognize how committed their teacher is. Respect for students as individuals must be shown at all times, even when they are poorly prepared and motivated, and teachers should set goals that will st

I try to find the best way to relate the given information to the student. Not everyone learns the same way. I will find what makes the most sense to the student and help them understand the given information. Throughout my education, I sometimes just wanted a different approach to the information. I would ask others their opionions and things all of a sudden were clear. That is what I want for my students. I have been involved in tutoring many of my peers throughout high school and college. I find it very rewarding to help others succeed in their education. Many of my peers just needed a different way to have the information presented to them. They needed to be outside of the classroom. They needed to feel comfortable. I gave them all those things as well as encouragement.

The chance to tutor peers in high school was the initial spark towards considering education as a career. During my undergraduate studies the desire has grown as I was given the opportunity in the role of Teaching Assistant. I found from those experiences that I have an ability to gauge a student’s comprehension of the material during sessions. This allows me to make adjustments on-the-fly and in the process become more effective in accomplishing the objective. In my teaching, I look to engage students through whatever means at my disposal with a primary focus on participation. Learning must become pro-active. My love for teaching comes from a teacher who showed that in everything they do, a true inspiration. For just over a decade I have been involved in some form of peer education or mentoring. As a senior in high school, I tutored students in mathematics and science. As an ACS Certifi

During my years at Liberty University, I was provided with an outstanding education that challenged me to grasp the complexities of the universe. I currently hold a BS in Biochemistry and Molecular biology, and I have minored in Psychology and Chemistry. The combination of subjects that I have studied provides me with an understanding of math and the sciences and with the knowledge of how to communicate these subjects to other individuals. Furthermore, membership with the Liberty University debate team has provided me with superior research and communication skills. During the last five years, I have unofficially tutored many of my fellow debaters in the sciences and officially tutored in the areas of high school chemistry and algebra. I enjoy working with all ages of children because each age group offers unique opportunities. I love tutoring because it allows me to teach in a one on on

I have taught mathematics at the high school and college levels spanning over 15 years. I have always been complimented on being able to explain difficult topics in plain straight-forward language. My primary profession is an actuary, bit I also tutor students in calculus and statistics during my spare time. I can create positive results by giving the student the necessary confidence in tackling seemingly impossible problems with an eye toward simplicity. I have always had the macroscopic view of mathematics (from basic algebra to advanced calculus) to know how everything fits together. If students could learn simply by having a textbook read to them, then there would be no need for teachers. But the effective teacher can and will make the difference in a student's ability to succeed. I apply my vast experience and knowledge to all of my lessons and provide a perspective that most
