There is no better of a feeling than to have a former student come back and tell you how much you helped them once they have went off to college. Showing students love and respect, as well as, treating them fair makes a difference when teaching. When students know that you care about them,that is when the student will put the best foot forward to learn. As an undergraduate tutoring math, I realized quickly that I had a gift to explain math and make it easy for others to understand. My college professors asked me on several occasions to teach there class when they could not be there to teach. This experience inspired me to become a teacher. I love what I do and I am satisfied with my career choice.

My teaching style is one in which I believe I can find the success of all students. I believe that each student has their own way of learning, whether it be hands on, visual, or by repetition of hearing. I like to interact with my students to pull forth their potential in which they may not see in themselves. I strive for excellence in everything I do, and I believe if I can make a difference in at least one child's life that it will be worthwhile. As a graduate of Elizabeth City State University, I pursued an education in Computer Science with a minor in mathematics. I have gained experience in the these two fields in which I excel in. I have had experience tutoring young children at my church(math), as well as helping other peers during my tenure at Elizabeth City State University. Most of my tutoring came in the field of mathematics.

As a tutor, I try to identify the learning strategies of my students and then build off of those. For example, if I notice that a student is a visual learner, then I will try to incorporate diagrams, models, and schematics that can assist the student in understanding the subject matter or solving the problem. If, on the other hand, a student learns best by reading, then I will provide step by step instructions of how to find answers to various problems, or provide guidance as to how to identify important elements from a text. In any event, I try to show students several different strategies for learning or for approaching a given problem and let them determine which one makes the best sense to them. During my doctoral studies at UCSD, I began to tutor professionally as a way to earn extra income. It seemed like a logical choice for a part-time job as I had been helping friends with h

I love working with children of all ages. i understand not everyone learns in the same way so I like to ask questions of the student, let them show me how they do work, and then make it a fit as to how I teach and how they learn. I believe every child can learn and, given the right motivation and stimulation, they will work to do their best. I work with the child from the level where they are and we progress from there. In the end I would hope I have given my all and it is received with good grades. As a student of high achievement and one who wants to see our youth excel in whatever they do, I find it rewarding to have the ability and desire to work with school aged children who have a bit of a struggle in the area of mathematics. For two years, I tutored elementary school aged children in the subjects of Math and English through a church program called Saturday Academy. The goal of t

I had my first degree in Mathematics. Throughout my undergraduate course work, I was actively involved in teaching Mathematics and Science in high schools as a tutor. Secondly, after my first master’s degree program in financial mathematics from Technische Universitat Kaiserslautern, Kaiserslautern ,Germany, I was employed as a mathematics lecturer at All Nations University and Institute of Professional Studies, Ghana, where I taught several undergraduate mathematics courses ranging from beginning algebra to calculus, including statistics. Furthermore, while pursuing my second master’s degree program, I held a graduate teaching assistant position at Youngstown State University, Youngstown Ohio. Where I taught beginning algebra and business mathematics for four semesters and worked also as a research assistant for two summers. Combining such a high responsibility with graduate studies

I believe that cooperation among teachers, parents, and students is paramount to a student's success. I always facilitate open communication between every party that's invested in the child that I am tutoring. I maintain an easy-going yet structured atmosphere, where students feel comfortable sharing and learning. I use a variety of resources (i.e. websites, calcultors activites, traditional worksheets) to assist my students. As a mathematics major, I tutored undergrad and grad students who experienced difficulty in their math courses, during the summer and the regular school year. Throughout my nine years of teaching, I've taught a variety of subjects, and I have learned how to build mature learners and effectively prepare students to be successful in their future math classes. As a current high school department chair, I teach Algebra. I've tutored middle, and high school student

I have taken teaching as my profession. As a parent I love to help the young ones achieve their goals. I feel delighted when I see my students excel in life. Science, and especially Mathematics, is not as difficult as some people think; it is just a matter of getting the fundamentals. Here presentation of these fundamentals is very important. After high school, I went to a teacher training college and graduated after three years. I was a Mathematics and Science teacher for 7 years before I went to Canada for my B.Sc. in Physics. I then went to Howard University where I did my Master of Engineering in Civil (Environmental) Engineering and later my Ph.D. in Environmental Engineering at Ahmadu Bello University. I have tutored a lot of Mathematics and all science related courses. I have published many papers in professional journals. I also belong to many professional science based organizat

My metaphysical beliefs as a teacher is that you are presented with the opportunity to reach many lives and impact students whether they know it or not. I believe that all children have the potential to become effective leaders in the community. Although the learning style of students may differ, everyone is capable of learning. My job is to create an atmosphere that is conducive for every learner. In order to create an effective learning environment in the classroom, teachers need to be border crossers. As a teacher, I am responsible for providing students with keys that will open their doors to success. I have the ability to help transform lives, which makes me want to reach out to students. I earned a bachelor degree in Mathematics. During my undergraduate study, I was a teacher's assistance in statistics, where I availed myself to students that needed help with the class. I also

I began 'teaching' as the head wakeboarding instructor at Coble Ski School in Lillington, NC, when I was a junior in high school. Shortly thereafter I took a position working at a beach resort in Pensacola, FL, where I spent an entire summer instructing surfing, kayaking and sailing. At Duke I tutored during each of my four years, either biweekly at a local Durham elementary school or at the Emily K Family Life Center. It is there where I tutored once weekly as a senior, up until I graduated in May. I have tutored in all subjects and all ages up through 22. When I approach a student I've never worked with, my first priority is to make them feel comfortable by letting them see that I am a very nice, friendly, and compassionate person that they might like to have as a friend. Next I try to get them to tell me about themselves in some way (what they've been working on, their favorite

I have always known that I enjoy teaching others. In fact, I started teaching others almost as soon as I finished myself. While my degree is in Environmental Science, I have extensive background in both biology and chemistry. I was a peer leader and tutor for organic chemistry. Furthermore, I currently work for Duke University as a laboratory manager. One of my key responsibility is teaching undergraduate students various techniques in micro-biology and biochemistry. I have several teaching styles, and I typically adjust my style to better fit the student. For those students that crave discipline, I try to be very proactive and actively assign homework for them to finish prior to learning. For those students who have better self control, I try to stand back a little bit to let them develop their own creativity. Regardless of the teaching styles I may use, I am always accessible and patie
