MBA, BS prepared professional looking to tutor

My primary goal is to help students understand the "why" of studies. "Why" do we look for differentials in calculus? "Why" do we describe imagery in poetry instead of just saying how we feel? "Why" do we enter compound keys in some SQL tables but not others? "Why" do we need a conclusion on our essay? If we understand why we do something, we are far more likely to remember how to do it. I also strive to keep the homework the work of the student. They do the work, I guide them to the correct (or at least best) answer. Students are more likely to remember how to complete the problem if they are in the driver seat, not the tutor.
I am an 15 year IT professional, the last 3 with the University of Iowa. I also have 6 years of chemical/biologincal operations and technical writing experience with Abbott Laboratories and SC Johnson Wax. Schooling includes a BS in Business/MIS with a mi ... read more

I graduated from the University of Iowa in 1989. My degree is in Elementary Education with an emphasis in reading. I taught in the same school district for 20 years where I gained experience teaching first, second, third and sixth grade. I am currently employed as the Elementary Student Advisor with the school district that my previous school district recently merged with. My daily duties include teaching guidance classes, advising individual students, working with At-Risk students on homework, and being a liason for parents and teachers. I love my job!

I always believed that all the children are smart and can learn difficult things. For them to do that all they need is a good teacher who can develop their interest in the subject, which will ultimately result in their success. I was successful in doing that with my brother and my cousin and today they both work in IT companies and Software engineers. I am very proud that I could make that difference in their life and hope to make that difference in many more other young children.
As an undergraduate student in India, I used to help my younger brother and cousins with school. Especially being in engineering my Math, Chemistry and Physics backgrounds are very strong. I have never tutored for money but I used to tutor a lot for free. This developed my passion for teaching and even as a graduate student at Univ. of North Texas, I used to teach undergraduate students (including freshme ... read more

I am currently a PhD student in Chemistry and hold education in high regard. I believe education is the key to success in any field. I have a excellent grasp of the Sciences and Math coupled with excellent writing skills. From my undergraduate years I have tutored and mentored students in subjects ranging from Chemistry to Math, SAT, both Verbal and Quantitative sections, and English.
I strive to make the student better and ultimately independent. I teach to instill the love of education in the student and give the student my best. I work with the students and adapt well to the students needs, as each student is unique and may require a different approach. My goal is to ensure that the student understands the material without being rushed and can fully comprehend how different problems are solved.

I cannot think of anything more rewarding than teaching and working with young people of all ages because of all that I can contribute to their lives. I strive to meet each student where they are, no matter what level, and yet meet the needs of the group as a whole. As I also believe that anyone can learn, my desire is to provide the best opportunities that I can so that they can realize their full potential and know that they are all important members of society who have something of their own to contribute and that I can learn from as well.

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 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 believe a teacher should encourage his/her students to discover the subject and ask good questions. Approachability and Authority should be balanced during teaching, thus the teacher would be both trustworthy and approachable. I student would appreciate a teacher who is really prepared and willing to be a good source for the student's curiosity.

A Little Bit About Me...

I will find a positive way to teach a student of any age. Although I always say I don't have the tolerance for negativity, I consider myself an expert when it comes to turning it into positive thinking. I also have extensive experience teaching students that are either hesitant or reluctant to put forth effort to learn. In the past I have countered this with positive comebacks and humor, which is usually greeted with a smile.
For the last year I have tutored University students in Iowa City for 2 subjects. From 2003-2004 I tutored various subjects at the University while in school to finish my bachelor's degree. In addition, I started my tutoring career in high school through personal and professional references. The subjects I have tutored throughout my career are: Economics, Algebra, Statistics, Computer Science, Financial Accounting, and Cost Accounting. I am currently wo ... read more

I have always had a strong appreciation for education and learning new things. My educational experience was strengthened when I attended Cornell College, which has a strong liberal arts program. I immediately took an interest in the sciences and pursued a Bachelor's degree in Biology/Pre-medicine. My education was additionally complimented when I immersed myself in several language, mathematic, English, and humanity courses, which gave me a strong diversity in the liberal arts curriculum. Due to the smaller class sizes at Cornell, most of the exams were given in essay form, which strengthened my writing skills immensely. During the course of the last 11 years after graduating, I have tutored students in English, mathematics, and the sciences.
It is both amazing and fulfilling for me to utilize my education and communication skills to assist both children and adults in learning to ... read more

With more than nine years of business experience in both Finance and Operations management and five years as a homemaker raising my four children, I have a very diverse level of experience which I will provide as a tutor. I have developed a complete battery of skills in English, Business, Mathematics and Social Sciences. Currently emerging from several years of medical disability, I have a lot to offer as I begin my return to the workforce. Tutoring is the next step on my journey. I will soon begin my educational pursuit to move to a teaching profession.
Effective teaching requires goal-setting and patience on the parts of both the instructor and the student. We are a team! I am simply there to facilitate their education. Most of what I teach is enhanced by my approach to helping the student learn. I seek to ask them to "teach" me by offering questions to them. This has proven v ... read more

From my teaching experience at the University of Iowa, I think that the level of understanding of the subject varies from student to student. Some students grasp the subject easily while it is hard for others. Therefore I always try to teach the subject in a manner that will consider all the different levels of students and in which questions are encouraged.
I have earned two MS degrees and a BS degree in chemistry in my academic career. I have two-and-a-half year experience of teaching undergraduate students at the University of Iowa. I received a very good evaluation from students which I would be happy to share with you. I have also passed SPEAK TEST along with the English Language Performance Test which is a requirement to be able to teach at the University of Iowa.

A Little Bit About Me...

"What do you want to be when you grow up?" The life long question...I can remember responding with teaching. Life throws you curves, and I ended up in Business. I still have the desire to educate others and want to dedicate a part of my life to that dream. Each child has a unique way of learning. The key to success is identifying the best techniques. Once you find the correct methods, then the child can become better educated. I will strive to find the correct style, add enthusiasm, and find a way for the child to relate. I will create a system of recognition and goals. Structure helps motivate and encourage people. All children have their strengths and weaknesses. I believe it is important to emphasize on the strengths while improving on the weaknesses. I want to show my strengths and make a difference in a child’s life.
