More About This Tutor...

I have a BS in Biology and Genetics from North Carolina State University. I have recently taken a refresher course in Anatomy and Physiology to go back to school for radiology. I have taken college level math courses through Calculus II, I have taken General Biology, Microbiology, Biochemistry, Organic Chemistry, and multiple courses in Genetics. I have helped tutor in high school for the Chemistry AP exam and helped fellow students in college.
I believe in being hands on and visual, many students have problems in math and science because they are unable to visualize the words written in their books. I am extremly organized so that my time is best spent on the most difficult areas for each individual student.

Effective, caring tutoring from an experienced tutor

I have been tutoring in math since I was in Jr High. Initially my students were sisters and brothers, then nephews and nieces, and finally I began tutoring as a second career. My background includes 30 years as an engineer and engineering manager, as well as teaching math at the community college level and volunteering as an adult literacy tutor. I love applying math to real world problems, and I do my best to come up with pertinent examples to help a student learn a new concept.
I summarize my approach to tutoring with "3 E's": Enthusiasm, Engagement, and Encouragement. I try hard to make each session fun and to engage the student in seeking the solution, rather than just teaching him or her a method.

Competent Math Tutor @UNC Asheville. Have your child excel.

I like to use examples and cater my lessons to what the student needs to work on (i.e. homework, test-prep). I also differentiate my style based on whether the student learns best through audio, visual, or kinesthetic means. I am a great listener and am able to identify where the student needs help and how to best bolster their academic ability and confidence.
I am employed as a Math Tutor at a company in Asheville. Before this, I lived in Raleigh where I worked for several distinguished companies as a Math Tutor. I have taught SAT Math prep at Cary Academy during the last two summers and at Roxboro Community School where I worked primarily as a Spanish Teacher.

My passion is teaching mathematics. After a single year of retirement I missed teaching so much that I now either teach or tutor at three locations. In the classroom I have a casual, informal style that is more like a conversation with my students than a formal lecture. After presenting a problem for students to analyze and solve, my most common tactic is to ask a series of scaffolded (rather than Socratic) questions-designed to lead students to their own method to resolve the situation. I believe that all students can learn mathematics, and that determining how each student best does it is my prime objective.
I taught secondary mathematics for 35 years, with 28 years experience teaching AP Calculus. I've also worked for the College Board, 'reading' AP Calculus Examination results. I also have 29 years experience teaching undergraduate mathematics part time, mostly for the Univ ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have a daughter in the 8th grade and a son in the 6th. I have home schooled them the past 9 years. They have very different learning styles which has helped me to learn to teach in different ways to accommodate their needs. I am patient and easy going and I love helping kids.
I have a Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration with a concentration in accounting. I have very strong math skills, especially in Algebra, which is what my daughter is learning now. I excelled in grammar, art, health, and science as well. I was a teacher at a private school for a year after college before I started a family and began home schooling. My daughter is now in the 8th grade and tests at the college level in reading and high school levels at most other subjects.

I have extensive experience in both Finance and Accounting. Although I currently work as the lead accountant with a local non-profit, I have spent over 3 years in finance and banking. Prior to coming to North Carolina, I attained 5 years accounting experience in both private and public firms. This broad resume has allowed me to broaden my expertise across many different industries.
I love working with kids and educating them. One of my first career experience was working as an aftercare counselor with a private school in South Florida. Over my time there, I went from just being a counselor being the director of the entire after-school program. I was also a substitute teacher and worked with all grades from Kindergarten to 7th grade. I understand the value of helping children learn in a dynamic way and I believe that I am not only knowledgeable enough but relatable with kids ... read more

I hold a bachelor degree in Business Administration with a concentration in Marketing. I majored in Elementary Education for two years before I switched majors. I started a master degree program in International Relations in 2009 and decided to return to school in the fall for a master's degree in social work. I have experience in private school and public school systems. I completed course hours for college in public school systems as well as working for public and private schools.
I have experienced various types of teaching styles while in school. I have learned a long the way every student is different and learns in a different way. In high school and all even through college math had always been my hardest subject. My second year in college I had a math professor that had a different approach to teaching math and for the first time in my life I finally understood math! Findi ... read more

One of the most important task in tutoring is building up a students self confidence. Some students have a learning barrier due to their lack of confidence in a given subject, so I believe a part of a tutors job is to build the confidence of a student, allowing them to believe they are able to do whatever they put their mind to. I use hands on and visual learning techniques which involves draw pictures, using surrounding objects or using examples students can readily relate to. My main goal is to make it FUN. Once a student finds a subject fun they usually put forth the effort to progress in the program. To tutor for me, is fun and it is a journey that the student and the teacher take together, this is why I enjoy it.
I Have earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Chemistry, Concentration in Biochemistry, but having attended a liberal arts college, I have also gained a well rounded ... read more

I will graduate from college with two degrees, BA in Business & Economics and BA in Mathematics & Computer Science in May, 2010. The experience of four years of college has given me the opportunity to gain extensive knowledge of not just my major but various other subjects. In addition to learning the academics, I have tutored mathematics, including statistics, to the students at Warren Wilson College for a year and a half. After about eight years of studying mathematics, I have proficiency in teaching the subject to students in any level of education.
I believe that each person has a different way of learning. I usually try to understand the student’s learning style on the first meeting before getting into the teaching process. I am very patient, calm, helpful and understanding. Making sure that the student understands the process of answering a question before moving onto the nex ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that a great educator is a great learner. I am always up for learning new things, so that I am able to teach someone else my new skill. I believe in a hands on approach to learning. The more that can be discovered by doing is much more beneficial than just reading from a text. I am a patient and caring person who is dedicated to taking the time to make sure that your child receives the attention that he or she needs.
I have wanted to work with kids all my life. I love the way that they learn and think, and how different it is from adults. I studied Biology at Warren Wilson College in hopes of becoming a high school biology teacher. While at college, I did over one hundred hours of service tutoring and mentoring high school and middle school students in Buncombe County. Since graduating in 2009, I decided to take a break from school, and figure out where I wanted to go in ... read more

I have dedicated the last six years to studying chemistry at the College of William & Mary, first as an undergraduate student and then as a Master's student. I obtained a BS in Chemistry in the spring of 2009 and, having finished my graduate research, have moved back to Asheville to finish writing my thesis in order to complete my Master's in chemistry. In addition to my extensive coursework, I have three years of chemical research experience. Over the past three years, I have successfully tutored a number of students in high school and college in a wide-range of chemistry related subjects, from general chemistry all the way through physical chemistry and more advanced subjects.
I believe that one-on-one instruction is extremely important in the educational process. The large lecture format currently utilized in both high school and college often discourages students from asking ... read more

My teaching style is based on patience and the understanding that not everyone understands mathematics the same way. As such, I attempt to explain mathematics slowly, simplistically and by focusing on the general concepts. I believe this enables the student to understand the material at their own pace. This also helps foster an environment where the student is given sufficient opportunity to ask questions and stay actively involved in the learning process.
I have had extensive experience tutoring in group settings as well as tutoring individuals. While attending community college and working, I tutored for high school students preparing themselves for college in group settings. Since graduating to the university level, I have been tutoring students and individuals from the community on a one-to-one basis. Thus, I am able to understand the dynamics of what each person needs most in ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I enjoy teaching students of all ages and academic experiences, whether it is the high school student who doesn't want to attend school anymore or the most avid learner in the university setting. I truly believe that every person is capable of learning if they are presented the material in a way which can motivate them to internalize the value of an education. I do not think that assuming a superior role in the situation of teaching or tutoring is helpful, and I strive to instill confidence in every student whom I encounter.
Attending UNC Asheville helped me to realize the irreplaceable value of a passionate, knowledgeable, and empowering teacher. After I received my minor in Mathematics, I applied to become a math tutor for a high school student. I have tutored this student for a year and a half now in Math, writing, and Spanish. Also, throughout this last semester of my undergrad ... read more
