College Algebra Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Belle Mina, AL

I have mentored/ tutored elementary students in first Lego league competition while as college student. Additionally I worked as a tutor and grader for the U of I. I grading homework of fellow students, giving me good insight in where people often struggle. I also tutored technical courses for undergraduate students. These courses included, physics 1-3, intro Chem, linear algebra, calculus, electrical and aerospace engineering course. After graduating I began working as a full time engineer, but remain available to tutor for individuals. I teach through examples and Q&A. I strongly encourage students to interrupt with questions as the occur. I have found through my own education, I am unable to focus or concentrate when thinking of another question. Often small benign questions can lead to larger answers or breakthroughs for students.

As a Teach for America corps member, I taught both high school and middle school math in the urban corps to students who were, on average, three years behind. I have learned how to identify critical gaps in content knowledge that prevent students from progressing, and have found fun and creative ways to build their confidence back up so they can learn to really enjoy math.

I have taught for a total of 15 years at Arab High School. I have taught the following in the classroom setting, but I have tutored for even longer in all subjects that I indicated. Algebra I (A and B split also) Geometry Algebra II (with and without Trig) Analytical Pre-Cal Algebraic Connections I am a very laid back person, but also very disciplined when it comes to my instruction. If there is not a certain level of comfort and respect between the student and teacher, no learning will take place. I care deeply about the success of my students and try to go above and beyond to show them that I am invested in them completely, not just in their math studeies.

While tutoring at my college, I received specialized training on identifying and adjusting to different learning styles. I use this knowledge to tailor each session to the needs of the individual student. To track progress, I like to set both short-term and long-term goals and create manageable steps toward reaching these goals. I also think it is important to teach students to establish general study skills so that they can make their own study plans for future courses. For many years, education has been one of my top priorities. I graduated salutatorian of my high school class and summa cum laude with a bachelor's degree in Biomedical Sciences. In high school, I tutored in a local elementary school, focusing on developing students' grammar and composition skills. While in college, I tutored chemistry, biology, physics and math courses up to graduate levels.

I retired from teaching public schools in Alabama after 25 years in 1998. Since then I worked as a contract trainer for 2 student information system software companies. I currently teach at Calhoun Community College in Decatur, AL, ITT-Tech in Madison, AL, and Alabama A & M in Huntsville, AL. As you saw above, I have my Master's Degree in Math Education. I virtually have taught all my career life. I love hands-on learning, however some math topics don't always lend themselves to that. Geometry has always been my favorite topic to teach. I tend to be the traditional teacher in showing students how to do problems, but I try to make them understand the background. I bring in real life problems when I can.

As a college graduate, I learned the subject of mathematics. I was a math club member for 4 years. Also I have a BS in Mathematics and Economics. During the past 10 years I have been tutoring on my own at various locations. I believe that everyone should have some knowledge of the subject. So I take what little they know and incorporate into the things they don’t. My goal is to find the easiest way to teach the student and show several different ways of doing it. I want to make a difference in each student’s lives while not making learning difficult.

I have always wanted to be a teacher. I began tutoring while I was still in high school. I earned my BS in Elementary Education in 1980. I have tutored students of all ages in different subjects. Most of my tutoring experience has been in math and reading. I have tutored students for all sections of the Alabama High School Graduation Exam. I have been a homebound and home-school teacher, as well as a classroom teacher. I love to help children learn! It is so rewarding to see the reaction of a child who suddenly understands what he has been trying to learn. I try to help my students build confidence in themselves by helping them realize that they do have the ability to learn. I want every child to know he is loved and special.

Being that I have spent the majority of my teaching career in a high needs environment, I can honestly say that I teach to the student. However a child best learns is the way in which I teach a subject. No child learns exactly the same, and as a highly qualified educator, it's my responsibility to discover the mode in which a student best learns. As both salutitorian of my high school graduating class, and a Chancellor Scholar at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, I have the drive, determination, and know how to succeed on any academic playing field and compete with the best of the best. I have a BS in Elementary Education with an emphasis in music. After ten years of teaching experience, I consider myself an excellent candidate to tutor in many subjects, including but not limited to Reading, Writing, Mathematics, Music (both vocal and instrumental), and Music Theory.

I hold a BS in Commerce and Business Administration from the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa. My background is not in education however I have experience as a teacher. I have been a water safety instructor and lifeguard training instructor in which I have taught children from toddler age up to college age. I have also tutored my wife and sister in accounting and my 12 year old nephew in math. I am a very patient person and realize that people understand things differently. Ideally, I try to focus on the logic and thought process that goes in to doing the work. I believe that once the thought process is mastered, the student can progress and solve more complex problems on their own.
