I believe in meeting students at their level of need, and mastering the skills needed in order to move onto higher level skills. I believe in teaching students how to develop their critical thinking skills, and teaching them the concepts needed to succeed in school and life.
I have my degree in Elementary Education. I have had experience teaching large class sizes, but I have also spent a lot of time in small group reading instruction, and I have worked in small group math. I tutored a kindergarten girl to improve her phonemic awareness. I tutored Language Arts in elementary school after school hours. I worked at a day care for 5 years and helped students with their homework after school.

I can relate best with the student/youth.

Very relaxed, easy going, friendly. I feel less pressure and non stressful settings help students learn better. They can relate to a younger person who is more in tune with youth and someone who understands them.
I attended Rufus King World IB High school in Milwaukee, Wi, one of the most prestigious inner city high schools in the country. I excelled in IB Geography, Chorus, and Theatre. I was one of those kids who never did any homework, but passed my tests. Everyone came to me for help on projects, homework, ect. I feel that I didn't fully utilize my strengths in school as I could have, so I would love to share that with those who need it now.

I use the preferences, hobbies, likes, and dislikes of the student to relate the information in which they are learning. I use examples from everyday life that helps them understand information that is applicable to everyday life.
I have been tutoring for over 8 years. I have also started youth tutoring programs since 2007. I have taught algebra, organic chemistry, physics, and other core mathematics and chemistry classes. Although I have taught in group settings, I prefer to tutor no more than three students at a time. I have taught grades from 6th grade all the way up to sophomore college level.

I love to work with students of all ages. I am a patient teacher and try to tailor my teaching style to the progress of my student. I prefer to promote understanding through the use of work sheets, tutorials, and real world examples, rather then simply relying on memorization. I have a good sense of humor and believe that constructive learning environments are both challenging and light-hearted.
I studied creative writing at the SC Governor's School for the Arts and Humanities in Greenville SC. There I studied poetry, play writing, grammar, editing, fiction, and creative nonfiction.

I have been tutoring,mentoring and teaching students over the last 5 years in Physiology, Physical Fitness, and Physics. I have taught online, one on one and in a classroom setting. I have taught practical application to theory as well as theory of the relevant subjects. I have been involved in research projects as well as published articles in peer reviewed journals.
I have a direct and simple teaching method. I love teaching physics and it always came naturally to me but I understand that most people do not feel the same way. I try to help students gain a deep understanding of the subject matter so that the principles and concepts are learnt and not simple formula memorizing. I do this so that when the student comes across a problem that does not fit the general shape of previous problems they can use the concepts learned to solve the problem. In short I try to teach problem solv ... read more

I am definitely have a hands on teaching style when it comes to tutoring in mathematics. I apply real world scenarios and instances to make mathematics more fun and understandable to whom I am teaching. I noticed that when you apply those techniques to tutoring, he or she becomes more comfortable because they can relate the math to what they know about. My whole goal is to make mathematics fun and understandable to a point where he or she makes A's in all of there mathematics.
As a recent M.S. Degree graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in Mathematics and science research areas. I have earned a BS degree in Mathematics and a MS Degree in Applied Mathematics with a concentration in Meteorology. Earning those degrees enabled me to gain understanding in many areas in science and math. In addition, I have learned extensive grammatical skills, which inc ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated May of 2010 from Guilford College with a BS in Business Management. In addition, I started my MBA program that has aided me to expand my knowledge in a variety of areas. Throughout my last two years of education, I have tutored students in mathematics, English, sciences and Arabic.
Ever since high school, I have always spent my time helping children doing their homework and studying for their exams. I really enjoy teaching children and over my many years of experience I have been able to quickly figure out how each and every child should be handled to be most efficient. I am really patient when it comes to dealing with children. I love to see the outcome of a children’s success after helping them progress. I believe every child should have opportunity and deserve the best education possible.

I began my teaching career by completing a two year course of study in Early Childhood and then worked as both a teacher and as a Director at a Parent Cooperative Day School until my own children were in Middle School. At this point I returned to College and graduated with a BS in Psychology and a minor in English. I continued on and received a NC teaching license from UNCG. I found my tutoring skills when my High School aged son was home bound by an illness and I home schooled him for most of his High School Years. He graduated from the University of VA with a PhD. recently and attributed his success in College to his home tutoring by his mother. I currently volunteer as a tutor for Americorp.
I am careful to assess where a child is functioning and start the learning process there. After assessment, I work on fundamental skills while at the same time slowly introducing new ski ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have loved Chemistry since high school. I have learned that many people have different ways of learning. In Chemistry, one has to be able to understand the concept and apply the concept. My goal is to provide the basics of Chemistry in the best possible way I can. I believe that one can not learn if they do not try. I strive to help others understand and succeed.
As a college graduate, I have tried to do the best that I could in my field of study. I have earned my BS in Chemistry, which has enabled me to understand math and science. I have tutored students in General Chemistry, as well as Organic Chemistry.

I have a 5 and 9 yr old sibling, I enjoy helping on school projects and helping with homework. While in college I often gave help to fellow students and aided in studying before exams.
I recently graduated and am working part time for a lab while I am continuing my education to get certified as a teacher. I hope to get a position as a biology teacher next year and tutoring would be a good way to get a bit more hands on experience teaching.

I teach with the assumption that everyone can learn anything. At the core of my teaching philosophy is the mental model or concept. Consequently, my first goal is to determine if the student has a mental model of the subject matter. If not, I will guide them in discovering a useful one using their existing models and their preferred input mode (tactile, visual, etc.). If a student does have a mental model then I will test its accuracy using the standard procedures approved and or recommended by the institution of enrollment. Further encounters are then simply for reinforcement until the student is confident.
Over several years as a teacher, tutor, and teaching assistant I have had the privilege of refining my teaching strategy. For example, as a physics tutor, I coached a high school senior who was intimidated with the subject how to master it using a simple reproducible foundation ... read more

I believe that with perserverence and a little bit of self esteem, any chi ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I earned my Ph.D. in polymer chemistry from a prestigious academic institution in London, England, UK. My early education was in Bangladesh from where I earned a master and bachelor degrees with honors in chemistry. In addition to specialization in chemistry, I had passed degree level courses in physics and mathematics. These were requirements for B.S. Honors degree and have enabled me to gain an understanding in basic math and sciences. During my long professional life as an industrial and academic researcher in chemistry, I have learned advanced writing skills through research proposal and report writing. These are parts of principal job responsibilities. And, I found new college graduates were severely lack of these skills. I used these skills during mentoring my employees and during tutoring in my early college life.
I believe every child is uniquely different. Each has his/her ... read more
