I possess a high level of education in both the sciences and math. I have a Bachelor's of Science in Civil Engineering and have passed the fundamentals of engineering examination. I also have ninety plus credit hours towards a Chemical Engineering degree. Education is important to me and as a tutor I would like to see that my students succeed.

I strive to create innovative lessons in which students have fun and also have an interesting perspective on mathematics. It has been by my experience that students learn the best through topics in which they can relate. In addition to creating fun challenging lessons, I accommodate kinesthetic, auditory and visual learners. I use a variety of methods and repetitions that will facilitate learning and comprehension at all levels. I have worked with at risk students and special education students. Therefore, I have experience in developing relationships and methods that effectively develop student learning for a variety of learners. Setting realistic goals and celebrating successes promote student engagement and motivation. Tutoring goes beyond teaching students but also developing the trust and commitment needed in their future.

As an infectious disease researcher, I have applied skills obtained since high school. My chemistry and biology skills were necessary to make bases, induce parasite inoculations, and process my data by ELISAs, DNA Extractions, Chromatography, Crystallography, and PCRs. My grammatical skills were essential for laboratory proposals, reports, and presentations. I have tutored high schools students in many areas of need, as a PEPP tutor, but have concentrated on biology, chemistry, and math. Teaching is a skill that requires flexibility. As a college student, I have tried many different studying techniques and have succeeded in finding one suitable for my style. Teaching requires different styles and techniques until one is successful. I have observed that the "fun facts" taught by professors are what are most remember able. I am more than happy to try different teaching skills until

I currently work as an Adjunct Professor of Mathematics at Jamestown Community College. I have completed both a B.S. and M.S.Ed in Mathematics Education from SUNY Fredonia. I have taught in school districts in both Cattaraugus and Chautauqua County. My experience includes teaching and tutoring students from 6th grade up to and including Sophomore college students. I love teaching and working with students. I believe all students can learn, but each in different ways. I am available to help your student find academic success in mathematics. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best mathematics education possible. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providing a constructivist approach to learning. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. A few good

I have an Master of Business Administration and a Bachelor degree in Mathematics Education. I was a math tutor and math teaching assistant at Daemen College. I completed two student teaching placements in mathematics classrooms during my education. I also completed a volunteer experience at Seneca Babcock Preschool where I aided the teacher in helping the children learn colors and numbers. When I was a senior in high school, I taught Spanish to 2nd graders for a semester long project. Teaching is such a rewarding experience. It is an amazing feeling when you help a student learn something that they previously had been struggling with. My goal is to help the student by becoming interested in the material. If the student is interested in the material, they will have a better chance of learning it. I hope I can have the opportunity to make a difference in many students lives.

During my studies at SUNY Buffalo I tutored in Regents Math which I also took when I was in high school. In Virginia Tech I was a Graduate Research Assistant. I ran Aerospace Engineering labs, assigning work to undergraduate students which I graded. I was available for multiple hours per week assisting students in their homework and lab reports. Since then I have been a math tutor in calculus. Engineering requires a solid understanding of math from the basics such as algebra and geometry to more difficult calculus and linear algebra. What I have learned in both mathematics and physics is used almost on a daily basis which is why I know the subjects so well. I believe in a pretty simple rule; repeat, repeat, repeat. Learning math and physics through example is the best way. Repeating these examples is a sure way to success. They student may not like math or physics, but once th

I have tutored 4 students in Fall 2009 semester in Chemistry, Physics and Calculas and helped them to get either A or B grades. I have tutored students of age groups 16-18 in high school Physics, Mathematics, Chemistry and Biology for 2 years in India. I have gave my GRE and got 1230 out of 1600. I am patient, while teaching and good at explaining same things in different ways if possible. Being a graduate student in Engineering i am good at Mathematics concepts and intricacies of science. I have published a paper in International Journal for Pattern Recognition by IEEE. I have prepared sample questions and conducted tests to make students understand simple concepts and boost their confidence to face the real examination. Such type of exams will make the students understand the mistakes they usually commit and give them a perfect opportunity to rectify them.

My source of income all throughout college has been through tutoring either at the college level or at the elementary and high school level. I am currently working on my Master's in Adolescence Education degree which I should complete in December 2008. I am student teaching as well as tutoring at a local community center in Buffalo. My student teaching experiences were in Regents Chemistry at a Buffalo Public School and 7th grade science. My background in Biochemistry has allowed me to witness where an education in science could lead to many opportunities in the job market. During my undergrad I was taught how to tutor students at the Tutoring Lab where I worked. Teaching students how to think critically is the key to success in any subject area. I found that asking students questions in a systematic way helps build a habit that allows them to approach any situation and come out su

The purpose of tutoring is to help students help themselves, and to guide them to the point at which each of them becomes an independent learner, and thus no longer needs a tutor. Both my students and I will understand that my role as a tutor is not to do the student's work, but show him or her how to do the work. So, I will do a lot of asking, questioning, and guiding through sample questions and problems. I will also be just listening and correcting or helping my student to remember. Additionally, to use my time more effectively, I will have my material organized before each tutoring session. I will do my best to encourage my students, and for this, patience is a must. And I am effectively patient, easy going, and considerate. I have taught and tutored Introductory and Advanced courses in Statistics at both undergraduate and graduate levels for twelve years in the U.S. and overseas. I

During my past three years at St. John Fisher College I have been actively engaged in the chemistry department. I have been exposed to various teaching types, one being active learning within a group. This has allowed me to develop teaching skills by explaining my ideas on the subject to my group, while learning the material at the same time. Also, for the past two years I have been an individual tutor for students taking introduction to chemistry. During the tutoring sessions I would help with homework or further explain the material covered in class. I believe that different teaching styles help different students. A method of both lecture and active learning can be effective for the widest range of students. This allows the students to get a brief introduction to the day’s material before they work in groups on questions about the material. I feel that student’s can learn best

I make my students work hard, and show them that more often than not they already know what they need to do. I ask questions and help student build off of what they already know, to get where they need to be. I adhere to both State and National standards while preparing students for local, regents exams, AP, and college exams. I am a Substitute Teacher in Williamsville, Grand Island, Niagara Falls. I have spent the last two years tutoring students on and off, while completing my masters in Mathematics Education. I have experience teaching everything from fractions & decimals to multivariate calculus and differential equations.
