Physics is one of my top subjects! I earned my M.S. in Physics from Depaul University in 2012 and have been a full time instructor of physics, engineering and astronomy at Moraine Valley Community College ever since. While at Depaul I worked as a private tutor and had many satisfied students who saw a great increase in their grades. I am currently working on my M.S. in Science Education.

I earned my B.S. in physics from Loyola University in 2010 and my M.S. in physics from Depaul University in 2012. While at Depaul I was a TA where I assisted in calculus based physics courses and also tutored high school and college physics students on the side. After graduating I became a full time instructor of physics, engineering and astronomy at Moraine Valley Community College in Palos Hills, and just received tenure this past fall. I am currently working on a second M.S. in Science Education which I will complete in the summer of 2016, and this summer will begin a third M.S. in Aerospace Engineering.
I like to make my approach to tutoring specific to each student. Most students simply need help with problem solving, and so I like to spend my hour or two a week with them working through homework problems (or problems which are similar) where I can determine their approach ... read more

I am not young enough to know everything

I agree with the concept that each person learns a bit differently, and even more so that as a tutor, I should try and find the most effective style for my tutee. My academic career also taught me the importance of setting time limits for each action item; and switching tasks to keep the mind sharp.
You will see from my resume below that I have strong experience in math, science, engineering and computers. It is worth mentioning that I am also skilled in english (5 on my AP World Lit exam) and art (voted most artistic in my senior high school class). I have also tutored at least 4 students in the past, and found it to be a successful and rewarding experience. Katharine P.

Anything can be achieved with dedication and the right help

I am direct without being overpowering. I have learned how to help the student come to the right answer compared to explaining why the answer is what it is. Talking them through the thought process of the problem is the first step to solving the problem on their own.
I have been a math resource tutor at my high school for the past year. I really enjoying helping people using my strengths in the math and sciences. I have also experienced tutoring first hand. I was tutored in AP BC Calculus and AP Physics, so I know from experience what works and what doesn't. I may not be a teacher but as a means of cost effective tutoring, I can help you out wherever you need it.

I have had experience working with middle school students with various learning disabilities, so I have a lot of patience, and I used creative ways to help students learn and recall material for testing. I worked hard to make sure students understood and retained information, and helped them learn various ways to comprehend and remember things.

Fun & Engaging Experienced Math & Science Teacher ??

I love to teach/tutor math and science and to bring joy and excitement to the learning process. I use a variety of strategies including math manipulatives and kinesthetic movement to help my students understand the concepts and relationships inherent in mathematics. My goal is to inspire your child to learn on their own and to develop the skills to be self sufficient in their math and science learning, and so I hope the time comes when my services are no longer needed and your child is self sufficient.
I am a middle school math and science teacher in a top school district with experience in grades 5th through 8th. I have experience working with a wide variety of students ranging from students with difficulties in understanding mathematics and students with learning disabilities to advanced learners. I specialize in making math relevant, fun and accessible to all learners. I focus o ... read more

I believe that by letting the student try to answer the problem by them self is the best way of learning. I will try to guide them down the right path, but even a wrong answer can teach you a lesson. I also believe that practice is the best way to become good at science or math, like a basketball player practice basketball to become better, so must a student.
I am currently writing my thesis in order to finish my Master’s degree in applied physics. My research is on experiment fluid dynamics where I am studying the affects of viscosity on glycerin. I have incredible math and science skills that I would love to teach others. I worked at a community college were I learned different methods of teaching or tutoring others.

I have learned that in teaching physics and mathematics it is important not only to have a grasp of the broad principles and concepts but to see how they are related and build upon one another. Furthermore, I have seen the success in teaching and practicing physics and mathematics from a problem solving point of view and tend to teach by providing examples to be worked upon and solving problems that typify common physics exam questions. I enjoy teaching to people from all different types of educational background and capabilities and see any subject material as accessible to all provided they are taught in a way most suitable to the individual and strive to find that for every one of my students.

I believe a basic knowledge of Physics and Mathematics is necessary for a Physics student who wants to further his knowledge and study a higher level course. In my teaching, I always start from the basics and build upon it. Whenever I need to give examples, I refer to daily events which happen in our real lives. This makes the subject real, practical and more understandable. Depending on the goal of a course, I can give conceptual teaching, or go deep into the Calculus of Physics. In my opinion a teacher must not only be knowledgeable, but also patient and friendly with an easygoing personality. This is the key for successful teaching.

More About This Tutor...

I have been fascinated with tutoring for the past three years ago. I began tutoring one of the professors at the University of IL at Chicago in a foreign language. Since then, I have been tutoring various age groups from eight years old to fifty four years old. I received my Bachelor degree in Biology from University of IL at Chicago. While studying Biology, I was able to take various courses in science such as Math, Physics, General and Organic Chemistry, Physiology and biology.
I believe a great teacher needs to have proper skills and talents for teaching. I learned a lot while growing up from a great teacher; my mother. My mother was a teacher for thirty years teaching elementary grades. I learned a great teacher needs to be respectful, patient and to be able to illustrate the lesson in an easy, simple way. I try to provide simple analogies for each concept. This enables the stu ... read more
