I am a bilingual educator who loves tutoring Math! I have 10 years of experience and I am very passionate about helping students from all backgrounds achieve success in mathematics because I myself used to struggle with the subject. However, with a lot of hard work, I have come to master and enjoy the subject! I have earned a BS in Mathematics and I am currently working on a Masters degree. My goal is to instill confidence into my students and help them achieve success in mathematics and in their professional and personal goals. Moreover, I have 3 years of teaching experience at the college level and have experience working with elementary, middle, high school, and college students. I absolutely love teaching/tutoring math! I truly believe it is what I was meant to do in life. I love what I do not only because I know my subject well, but because I feel that I am helping someone else achi

I currently teach in an interim classroom for secondary students who have been suspended or expelled. I teach all subjects, but am most comfortable with LA and math. Before this, I taught in a high school classroom for students with behavioral disabilities. I taught LA and social skills. I also have been a para-educator in a junior high school, a substitute teacher, and taught dance lessons. I have worked with students of many different backgrounds, ages, and abilities. I love to help a student find that "a-ha" moment where he or she finally understands a concept that has been a struggle. I enjoy teaching new concepts or working with students to master a concept.

I love teaching as i like to share my knowledge and experience in a productive manner. I will help your kids to reach their goals with small steps at a time. My way of teaching helped the students to gain confidence in their field of study and they will spend less time in completing their assigned projects as they gain efficiency. I learned hard concepts very easily and i taught my friends also the same way. I will make my students realize that learning is fun and they will be strong in the concepts which can be applied in the practical world for their advancement. I have started my education in accounting from my high school (2 years), three years college degree, three years internship as an articled clerk while getting certification as an Associate Chartered Accountant in India and then got my CPA license in Iowa after meeting 150 semester hours to get my license.

I thoroughly enjoy working with students, and provide fun yet focused tutoring. I hold a Masters degree in Linguistics, and have teaching experience for students of all ages, in various settings, including as a substitute teacher in public schools, a full-time teacher of ESL at the University of Iowa, an adjunct ESL teacher at Northern Virginia Community College, and ESL/SAT tutor with a private company. I most often teach English, Communications, and Writing skills to students. I am friendly and make students feel very comfortable, and am great at getting them motivated. I first like to understand the student's learning style, as we all have different methods of learning. Some are visual, others do better with reading a text, or using examples. I use a variety of methods to teach my students, depending on age. I also want to learn where and why the student is struggling with the subjec

I love to help others. When teaching, I love to keep things fun and upbeat because the pressure of achieving excellence is stressful enough. I take what the student gives me meaning I adapt my teaching style according to their learning style. I am very patient because I always put myself in their shoes. It gives me great pride to see one of my students turn things around. I will never give up on anyone because everyone is teachable. I think every person has the potential to become a good writer with the right amount of teaching. My education thus far has been centered around writing. My collegiate career, the two years I spent in law school, and currently while in pursuit of MBA have all enhanced and refined my writing skills. All of the papers I have written for class are in APA format. I have received 6 perfect papers out of 4 classes I have taken thus far. I have become effi

I'm a student at Augustana College whose academic record has ranged from public school to home schooling to community college and and even private education. I've worked as a tutor for over 2 years at Black Hawk College, at the same time obtaining an Associates Degree. Throughout those years I've encountered many special needs students and many bright students, tutoring in subjects ranging from English, Math, Social Studies, to Computer Science. I believe the best way to learn is peer-to-peer learning. As an auto-didact I have the study skills necessary to regurgitate information as taught by the current institutional models. This is an uncreative and highly unnatural way to learn. There's a reason no major discovery was made in a classroom -- true innovation, discovery and learning is an organic process.

I believe that ALL children are capable of learning. It is my responsibility to seek out those methodologies that are most compatible for the children in my care. My administrators usually placed those students who were struggling in my care. I don't believe in using just one "curriculum" but am adept at combining a variety of techniques that will best enable the children find out that they are, indeed, capable of learning! Teaching reading and writing are particular joys to me, as I believe anyone who learns to read has opened up a whole new world. Learning can be fun and relaxed, while achieving the goals necessary for academic success. A skilled educator experienced in working with diverse population groups, I'm a Reading Specialist and a classroom educator. Designing curriculum and consulting with homeschooling families have been integral parts of my growth as an educator.
