Calculus I Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Boring, OR

I have six years of tutoring/teaching experience, helping students come to a well developed understanding of the subjects they struggle with. Part of this experience includes a year teaching English in a classroom setting in South Korea. Through these positions I worked with students from the ages of 6 to 22, with varying levels of expertise and learning styles. Due to this I have developed an ability to work successfully with a wide range of students. I am a patient teacher who works diligently to ensure the student's confidence and strength in the subject matter. I believe that there are many ways to approach a topic, and it is my duty to find the approach that allows the student to full understand. I worked to instill the skills the student's needs through thorough explanations, practice, and encouragement.

I worked for Panther Academic Support Services at UW Milwaukee from Sept 2007 to May 2011. I tutored students individually and in group settings in math and science courses. I have worked with students from all academic backgrounds. I began tutoring algebra to incoming freshmen. I tutored calculus to business students and I tutored physics to students studying health science. I have found that it takes multiple ways of presenting a topic for students to have a expert grasp of the subject. I have a conversational teaching style. I emphasize the thought process that facilitates problem solving and conceptual understanding that lies behind all math and science subjects.

I have recently completed Calculus II and III courses with a 4.0 GPA. I have a Bachelors degree in Finance and love math and learning. I have a family of teachers and believe I could connect with a student and help promote their learning experience. I am highly aware of the value of mathematics and science in the job market now and in the future and would find the job of helping younger students grow in their abilities to be a rewarding experience. I have experience tutoring part -time in a University setting and know I am capable of explaining subject matter clearly.

Math is my passion in life! I have tutored family and friends for many years in Math. I would like to become a high school Math teacher someday, and in the meantime, I would like to get more teaching experience. I enjoy making those who have struggled with Math feel like it is not overwhelming after all.

I strive to make math fun and meaningful. I work on concept mastery. I homeschooled my children through high school. I taught them through pre-calculus. I have taught group homeschool math classes for all levels and tutored individuals. I taught developmental math at a community college in Texas for three years. I tutor college level math also. I love all levels of math and all ages of students.

I always try to use everyday situations and apply them to math problems i'm trying to teach. My name is Quyen and I'm still a college student. I enjoy helping people with homework and tutoring. My best area is in Math but I am decent in other subjects too. Even though I am not a certified teacher nor having any experience with tutoring; however, I've had taken math all through out my education career-up to Calculus 2.

My learning and teaching preference is reading/writing. I adjust to students who are visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learners. I like to use examples to drive concepts home, to make them relevant to my students' lives, and to ground these concepts in reality. Examples include, say, how geometry is used to create movie 3D special effects, or how algebra is used in sound editing in a sound studio. I also intersperse jokes and puns to help the student relax and be assured that (s)he is in a safe, secure environment for comfortable learning. I have been tutoring subject listed on my resume for about 11 years. Currently, I tutor 1) primary grade children in language arts, 2) one adult in computer programming skills (algorithms, MS SQL Server 2008, Java), and 3) through a couple of tutoring companies. I conduct tutoring in groups, one-on-one, in-school, and in-home. My education i

My area of expertise is Mathematics. I have gained extensive mathematical knowledge by earning a BA in Mathematics from the rigorous program offered at Seattle Pacific University. I have experience tutoring a High School student in Algebra and Geometry. I also have experience tutoring an adult student in Algebra and Geometry. During college, I earned credits by being available to other college students, and primarily interacted with Intro level college math classes, as well as all levels of Calculus students. I really enjoy working one on one with students, because in a one on one situation, I am really able to tailor my teaching to the individual. I try and recognize where the student is strong, and encourage those traits, while recognizing where they need growth, and doing my best to help them grow in those areas. I am a good listener so I my tutoring sessions are focused on the stu

As both a math student and tutor, I believe the most effective approach to learning is for the tutor to act as a guide, allowing the students to make the important connections. I am very patient and have good communication skills. I am a senior at Reed College studying mathematics. While at Reed I have worked as both a grader and a tutor. Having graded assignments, I can quickly grasp multiple ways to approach a problem and give commentary where necessary. I also have experience working at an alternative school as a math tutor, with students who have trouble succeeding in traditional learning environments. Furthermore, being a current student and having recently taken the GREs, much of the material is still fresh in my mind.

Educationally, I have a BA in Mathematics from Vassar College, a school where I achieved a high level of success graduating with high honors both generally and within my major. While this gives me the mastery necessary to approach all levels of math up to the graduate level, my teaching experience makes it possible for me to convey those subjects to my students. I began working one on one with students while teaching guitar in high school and since then have continued to facilitate students' learning at various levels. Most recently I've pursued experiential education working with kids on farms, backpacking trips, and canoe expeditions. I apply this hands on approach to education in the classroom as well, one that I found successful while teaching Linear Algebra to college freshmen my senior year. For various reasons, we all learn in different ways. Often times this is difficult to

Throughout my education, I've found that broad academic interests have led me to pursue a wide range of subjects simultaneously. My undergraduate degree is a double major in music and comparative religion, and my other coursework ranged from astronomy to constitutional law. I recognize with gratitude the manifold opportunities that were available to me, but the most important piece was taking ownership of my own education. Though working on a wide scope of subjects had its challenges, I knew that I needed to follow all my interests instead of suppress them, and only then I would find the energy and focus to succeed. I strongly believe that an education that leads with concepts instead of rote is the surest route to lifelong success. This is certainly the method that worked for me, and I find that, without the conceptual grounding, a student will not get as much out of necessary practice

As an educator, my responsibility is to ensure that my students not only learn the required information but also feel positive and invested in their subject. I am patient with my students and enjoy facilitating the learning processes. Each student is unique and I feel fortunate to have the opportunity to help my students fulfill their potential. While a graduate and undergraduate student, I've had the opportunity to teach at the University of Georgia. I've taught a wide spectrum of classes and labs ranging from Physical Oceanography to Cell Biology. My tutoring experience has been concurrent with my teaching experience and has largely been for my own students. In addition, I've been responsible for grading and aiding in the writing of numerous undergraduate research reports.
