25 years teaching various age groups in mathematics, fitness and martial arts Math subjects include algebra, statistics, calculus, trigonometry, logic, discrete math; I can tutor any math subject in K - Junior year of college. When students turn to tutoring, they often allow the tutor to do their thinking. This is counter productive to learning. A tutor is a coach, as well as, someome who shares their knowledge and skills. Learning math requires building neuro network connections in the brain. Anyone can learn math, at any age, but just like exercise, the mental muscle must be built with hard work. Learning how to learn sometimes is the first step. I take a diagnostic approach to tutoring. It does no good tutoring algebra is a student doesn't understand numbers and arithmetic. Likewise, a student must have a working knowledge of algebra before they can be successful in

While biology has remained my main passion, I have learned that a good understanding of all subjects is necessary to succeed in academics. A scientist cannot replicate an experiment if they can’t read the papers or understand the statistics used. For this reason, when I teach, I emphasize the practice of multiple skills to achieve understanding in any one subject. I focus on teaching techniques that work well with all types of learners, particularly hands-on activities. It is my belief that learning should be exciting, not a tedious chore. I strive to foster this enthusiasm in my students. I have a deep passion for the sciences so my bachelor’s degree in biology was a natural fit. I discovered while working in a graduate program that I also love to teach. I had the opportunity to teach real world science to high school students, which I enjoyed immensely. I learned a lot about different

My teaching-style is rigorous yet kind. My students say that no one has ever criticized their writing and thought so thoroughly and constructively. I'm known for my patience working with students with foreign-language backgrounds and other disabilities such as a lack of attention and focus. I learned from my professors at Swarthmore College (and a few at Penn) how to project a non-B.S. style, since kids tend to intuitively realize when their teacher has no idea what he/she is talking about. Coming from a family of teachers and professors (who have also been my teachers), I'm confident that good teaching is in my bones. I never use technology just for the sake of using technology. I became a published author of game reviews for a computer magazine at age 15. I worked at the University of Pennsylvania in Chemical Engineering under an Army Research Office grant, then as a software developer

As a graduate student in Sociology at Wichita State University, I was able to explore my passion for human behavior with great detail and rigor. During this time, I was able to use SPSS extensively for statistics and data analysis for Crosstabs, Frequencies, T-tests, ANOVA, Correlations, Descriptives, Linear Regression, Logistic Regression, OLS Regression, and Weights. I also served as a graduate teaching and research assistant, which allowed me to tutor students on how to use SPSS while also applying SPSS for research projects and program evaluation. I believe the fundamental goal of teaching is to foster learning. Learning takes place in many different circumstances and contexts. Although everyone is capable of learning, a student's desire to learn is a vital pre-condition to effectively mastering new concepts and skills. People have multiple learning styles: some learn best in lectu

During my years of highschool I strived to maintain a high GPA and recieved the Florida Bright Futures Scholarship because of my academic acheivements. My perseverance and strong ideas of education importance has led me to recently graduate from the University of West Florida with a Bachelor of Science degree. My plans are to continue my education to become a Physicians Assistant. However, my time in between schools can be at least one year. I have had to maintain knowledge in grammar because of laboratory reports and scientific papers required for my degree. During my last six years I have tutored students in English, mathematics, and sciences. During my years in college, I have acquired a strong passion for teaching others. I believe every person whether child or not can find their compassion for an education. I want every student to find what makes them passionate about learning. I am

There are many buzz words and phrases applied to teachers and teaching styles. While I perfectly respect all of these new theories and methods of both teaching and learning, it must not be forgotten that each student is unique in their style and commitment. Otherwise, they would not need tutoring! Creativity and patience are the keys to discovering the specific style that best suites the student. That being said, I do of course have a "style". My sessions are incredibly interactive and student driven. If a student can learn to voice their questions as well as the newly learned answer, they will not only master the topic on hand, but prepare them for higher education. Communication and interaction will always be key. Tutoring and teaching have always come quite naturally; the ability to see the struggle from the student's perspective, and recognizing the demand for creative explanations t

Having always enjoyed Math from an early age, I decided to pursue a Math degree and use my passion for Math to educate future generations. Having graduated in the Spring of 2007, I've taught High School Math for the past 3 years within Escambia County. I believe all children have the ability/aptitude to learn the information given to them, but it's the way that information is presented that will stay with your child forever. I feel it is my job to not only present this same information to your child in a new way, but to, in essence, teach your child how to learn and teach themselves. Almost all Math processes can be broken down into steps, and putting those steps together, like climbing stairs, will get your child to the top.

I have a BA in Philosophy/Religious Studies and I also studied Environmental Science with over 40 credit hours. Due to this wide range of studies, I have strong skills in both reading and writing, as well as in math and science. During my college experience I tutored my peers and for the last two years I have been a Sunday School Teacher and a Youth Pastor. I have also spent time as a volunteer tutor for homeschooling students. I have always had a strong desire to learn and to teach. I work hard and I am diligent to complete a task. My joy is to work with children of any age to help them grow and develop and learn. I believe it takes love, grace and patience to teach a child. The student must not only be expected to learn from the tutor, but the tutor must also learn from the student. Learning can be made enjoyable when a teacher has an encouraging spirit and does not give up on their st

I have one BS in Electrical Engineering, and while an upper-class student tutored younger students. As a senior, I also tutored Intro to EE students on request 2-3 times per week. I currently teach Leadership basics to enlisted Marines during the week. I have a heavy math and science backgrounds based on my major, but also have self-studied psychology, history, and technical writing. I can tutor in almost any subject at the high school level, and engineers or math/science courses at the collegiate level. In my military experience, I see all sorts of learning styles and ability levels. I am able to break down hard concepts of math/science/engineering so that regardless of learning style, we can work towards understanding. I find that many students struggle because no professor has taken the time to relate it to the student in a way that they can internalize and retain. I firmly believe th

I finished my BA with concentrations in management and accounting at Troy University in 2007,then worked for three years in an Accounting Office. I left there in January 2010 to pursue my Masters in Accounting. I gained valuable experience in reading, writing and the application of mathematical formulas through working in a fast paced accounting office. I supervised one to three employees, trained them and audited their work. I have never officially tutored a student, but I have trained employees on accounting principals and how to write to the IRS and clients, as well as helping out friends and fellow students. I would like to tutor in reading, writing, history, business, and math. Teaching is so rewarding, there's nothing better than helping someone understand something they have struggled with in the past. I am a very patient person who loves to work with people.

My teaching style is standard in the extent that I believe everyone can learn specific material, they just have to figure out a way to relate to the material. Growing up I was tutored by my parents with the style of trial and error. I believe this works only with certain individuals, while others may require a step by step explanation in order to understand the process. As a college graduate in finance, I completely understand how math can be somewhat confusing in determining the relation with the steps process. As a young man raised in a military life style, I have always been extremely motivated and possitive in striving for excellence. I graduated from Florida State University with a Bachelors of Science in Finance Degree where I received specific knowledge, skills and abilities.

After finishing my PhD I went to work for Monsanto as an organic analytical chemist. My speciality was the use of mass spectrometry to understand organic chemical reactions and the products and impurities that were formed. While working for Monsanto I also taught College chemistry classes (Organic I and II and the labs). I have over forty publications and forty presentations. I am the author of two books on Organic Analytical Chemistry. I was also honored by being appointed a Science Fellow in Monsanto. I am currently scheduled to teach Organic Chemistry I this summer at the University of West Florida. I have always wanted to teach but enjoyed the research that was available working for a large chemical company. I had the opportunity to teach Organic while I was working and enjoyed it but the time constraints were tough. I am now retired from industry and will be teaching in the Chemistr

I have always been a quick learner when it comes to mathematics. It is something that comes almost natural to me. With that said, I understand that this is not the case for everyone. I feel that a good majority of people hate math because they don't understand math, and because they don't understand math right away, they don't try to understand it. I had a wise professor once tell me, "Math isn't difficult; there is no such thing as difficult math. It just seems difficult because you haven't learned it yet". I think math can be easy for anyone, they just have to learn it first. I started tutoring math when I attended Faulkner State College. I then attended the University of South Alabama where I tutored math and physics. I have tutored all levels of math and also tutored not only physics, but lab activites as well.
