My comments on tutoring Sociology : I am a College Professor (History, Philosophy, Ethics, English) with many years of sociology tutoring experience. I have helped many students to understand complex social theory. I am patient and understanding.

In my experience, the majority of students are highly motivated. This is, for me, the key to success. However, very often, students require assistance with a wide range of ‘remediation’ in many of life’s basic competencies: a skill set that includes such issues as time management, test taking, study habits, and, sometimes, acculturation. My teaching methodology follows these simple steps: Step 1: Motivation Step 2: Definition & Understanding of terms Step 3: Explanation, exploration, discussion, debate Step 4: Questions & Answers Step 5: Practice: Time & Effort Step 6: Demonstration (or proof) I absolutely believe that motivation is required for learning. I have found that students become more motivated to learn when they understand how they will profit from the experience. I teach ‘communication’ all the time, regardless of the subject matter. Throughout the course of ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As per my view, every child has skills and weaknesses but in different areas. So we have to focus on the certain weak areas. Plus everyone prefers their own style to learn. So I prefer to teach with the student friendly way. All Children will definitely achieve their goals with proper direction and guidance with strong will and hard work.
I have graduated from Medical School in India after acing High School, was amongst top ten in state. As parents were teachers, I have interest in teaching since childhood. I helped students during my medical school in subjects like anatomy, microbiology, physiology, psychology and sciences. I have also improve my English proficiency by taking English and speech classes here in NJ. I have also helped students here in US with same subjects.

A Little Bit About Me...

While I hold high standards for academics, I am a fervent believer in learning through meaning. Every lesson plan I have taught has been designed so that it doesn't "feel" like a lesson plan, but rather, has been an experience. I believe it is essential to create a learning environment that engages the student actively, and educates them not just in the subject matter, but holistically, socially, and humanistically.
In my undergraduate studies, I focused primarily on the student's use of imagination as it relates to literacy comprehension. While I have successfully completed credits in advanced mathematics and engineering, my passion is in English. I have scored consistently in the 90th+ percentile on standardized tests in the writing portions (Including the GRE), and have done exhaustive research for a local professor in preparation for a manuscript.

More About This Tutor...

While studying Education at Duquesne University in Pittsburgh, PA, I had a chance to teach in numerous settings ranging from private, religiously affiliated institutions to public institutions. Engaging students in both rural and urban settings, I witnessed firsthand the power of learning. Learning can inspire, motivate, and lift a student to embrace his or her full potential. Learning can expose all of the "good" despite the frightening uncertainty of everyday life. Learning can shift the direction of a human life. I believe every student should have an opportunity to learn and grow. By helping others discover the power of learning, I hope to grow as an individual throughout the process.
I have had an opportunity to study at two reputable universities in the Pittsburgh and Philadelphia area. Through this educational journey, I have received a BS in Secondary Education, BA in Engli ... read more

I like to tell people that i did not choose teaching; rather I believe it chose me. I have always worked with children that were struggling whether it was socially or academically. I was typically working with what are known as the "at risk" students. However, I eventually found my way into the classroom as It was noticed that I had a natural ability to balance teaching in the content area and managing behaviors. I loved math all of my life and even found myself tutoring fellow college classmates. I have been teaching math now for 6 years and have been the lead math teacher in every school that I taught for.
My teaching style is one in which I find ways to relate content to the students' everyday lives. I like to balance textbook knowledge with practical applications and cultural relevance. I also am a firm believer in planning lessons that require higher order thinking skills yet ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I would describe my teaching style as one that consistently attempts to meet the student at his or her current level of need, with the aim of continuously moving him or her toward the goal of competency in the subject area, particularly as it relates to the critical thinking skills needed to accomplish the task. Practice makes perferct; but, without the adequate thought processes needed to accomplish the task, any amount of practice is undermined.
As a graduate student and as a professional researcher, I have the opportunity to teach as a graduate assistant and adjunct faculty. Over the years, as I have pursued my masters and doctorate level degrees, I have worked with students of all types to assist them in their writing skills in preparation for personal statements as well as for specific courses.

More About This Tutor...

I believe teaching others a skill or new information is a gift, to both myself and the student. When the light goes off in their head, and the "I got it!" look comes across their face, I feel a sense of accomplishment. I am very patient, and understand that each student learns at their own speed. Additionally, I know that each student is different, which will sometimes require a new teaching technique. I believe everyone can learn; sometimes it just takes the right teacher for the right student.
I was a teaching assistant for three of my four years at the University of Delaware. I taught courses, as well as tutored students and graded exams. Additionally, I have a great deal of experience in sciences and english, specifically biology and microbiology, as well as excellent grammar skills.
