This was on of the highest scores achived across the state.The students worked hard under my stewardship to achieve this growth.The greater part of the credit goes to these students. I also spent time in tutoring groups; one on one with some kids who were struggling with some specific math concepts,for some of them this was the first time they avoided summer school before being promoted in their life. I have great passion in instilling intrinsic motivation to my students. Hands on activitties Real life apllication of concepts Peer tutoring Small groups online interactive activities

I generally teach through visual aids and through very thorough explanations. If the student doesn't understand the first time I explain something, I will explain it in a different way and will keep explaining it in different ways until he/she fully understands what's being taught. I try my hardest to teach by explaining concepts logically and showing WHY and HOW, rather than simply saying something is what it is "just because." I have always been an honors student and am currently taking the highest levels of math (AP Calculus) and spanish (Spanish 5) at my high school. I am involved in Peer Mentors at my school and have tutored multiple students in a variety of subjects. I have also tutored students outside of school, mostly in math. I love teaching others and helping them to understand concepts that they previously were struggling with. I am very patient and will work my hardest to ma

I try to alleviate math anxiety, and introduce thoughtfulness as a way to solve problems. I teach how to understand math rather than just mimicking the behavior of the teacher. Math is about putting two and two together more than it is about learning how to add and subtract. If you would like to contact me it's probably best to call or text me as I may not see messages on here. 704 300 1027 I've been teaching college and high school level mathematics for over 6 years. I have been tutoring math and sciences over a decade. I've worked as a Statistician private contractor for about a year for Hospira and Partners BHM, and I worked in math education software design for about a year as a content editor and tester.

I am an honors graduate with a degree in Special Education and dual certification in Elementary Education. I am currently working toward a masters degree in learning and technology. My teaching experience prior to entering public education included teaching in an international school (Qingdao, China)and teaching in private schools in the United States. I am experienced with helping students to reach their academic and personal goals regardless of any challenges. Because every child learns in a unique variety of ways, I incorporate a wide range of learning methods into each lesson. Tuning each component of a carefully crafted lesson to the needs of each individual student - is a juggling act that is challenging and rewarding to me. Intuitively supporting learning’s synergistic nature, I enjoy the daily balance of presenting new principles, while skillfully solidifying what has been

I have earned a PhD in philosophy from the University of Virginia, and taught at the university level at Virginia Tech, UVA, Hampden-Sydney College, West Point, and the University of North Carolina at Pembroke for ten years. During that time, I have taught philosophy, logic (including test prep for the GRE and LSAT), and composition. A chemistry minor in college, I am also proficient in basic science and mathematics. I have tutored in composition, algebra, logic, chemistry, and philosophy. My job is not to give students answers, but to push them to articulate better and give better answers. I teach not by lecturing but by discussion; together we work through problems and questions. By showing students (gently) where their thinking could be improved without giving them the actual answers, I push students to solve problems on their own. My teaching strategies were recognized with teach

Throughout my years of teaching I had some students who needed additional help so I tutored along with my teaching. I spent extra time with them after class or in a laboratory. I won many awards for teaching and was selected teacher of the year in 2002. Along with adult college students, I have worked with Boy Scouts, middle school students and high school students. Also, I volunteered as an instructor for the Charlotte Mecklenburg School System. My teaching style is like a coach. I show the student the method to solve the problem and then I observe, correct and praise the student while he/she solves similar problems. It is important to explain the underlining principle in the problem so the student will be able to solve similar problems without just memorizing a few rules. I try to use the best learning style (verbal, logical, visual, auditory, kinesthetic, etc) that fits each stud

My goal as a math tutor is to help my students understand the material, to help them have confidence in their abilities, and to teach them study skills so that they can become self-sufficient. I accomplish this goal by first assesing their current understanding and working step by step to fill in the missing pieces in a manner that they can understand. Each student is unique and learns in a unique way. My task is to find the method that works best for them and help them to understand the material. I provide a positive and supportive enviornment by helping students recognize their own successes. I help my students use their mistakes as stepping stones to correct knowledge and never criticize the individual or their efforts. I believe that everyone can be successful with mathematics and it is my job reach out to them at their level and help them reach the standards and goals that hav

When helping students learn and understand material I believe it is important to first gain the student's trust, so they will not resist receiving help. I am a recent college graduate and find that it is easier to relate to, communicate with, and gain the trust of students, since I was in their position not long ago. Once the individual's trust is gained I will assess their learning style and determine the obstacles they are having with grasping the material. In doing this I can evaluate which elements to devote most of our time to practicing and understanding and which aspects the student will be able to pick up quickly. Watching a student's frustrations melt away as they gain confidence in themselves and their academic abilities is one of the most rewarding experiences I have ever had, and I would love to have the opportunity to continue helping students realize their full potential.

I have always had a passion for kids, which is what led me to a career in Education. I earned an undergraduate degree in Middle Grades Education, with a concentration in each Mathematics and Science. My students are the driving force that motivates me to use nontraditional methods of teaching in order to get through to them. My desire to always be a better teacher has pushed me to pursue a Masters degree, which I am currently working on. For the past four years I have tutored many students, in all areas ranging from grades 3 to 11, and college calculus. Working with all kinds of children is my passion. All children can learn in my eyes; it is my job to find out each individuals best method of learning and to cater to their specific needs. I believe that in general, education works best when it is student centered. Instead of me teaching at the front of the classroom, I give the chi

I love to teach children. They learn in different way. Some of them can not concentrate in a class room, while some learn very fast. I am willing to help both groups. My goal is to provide the best education. I believe in teaching through discovery and in providing constructive approach to learning. The children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate learning experiences. I want to make a difference in all my students' lives. My favorite subject in the school was Mathematics. This why I studied Mathematics in Sofia University (Bulgaria). After graduation I started to work as a math teacher in High school, then in Middle school for a total of 23 years (Bulgaria). All these years I have worked enjoying my job. For many years I conducted lessons with small groups of students who studied facultative Mathematics. When we came in USA I started to study English and read and

I am a huge proponent of the dialectic and Socratic methods of teaching, while recognizing the need for the didactic to learn the basic methods of academics. My own experience, as well as my background in Psychology, helps me recognize that learning must be relevant, interesting, and conducted in a highly accepting and supportive environment. I am keenly aware of the sense of inadequacy of students who come to tutoring services (I have been one myself in the past) and make special care to make all my students feel that improvement is possible for anyone. The knowledge and strategies that high performers utilize are not exclusive; anyone can learn with patience and the right tutor! I am a current teacher for the Princeton Review for the SAT (soon also for the GRE and GMAT), as well as a former tutor for Huntington Learning Center (SAT).
