A Little Bit About Me...

First we get to know each other. Often I can create examples to illustrate problems based on the student's interests and experience. If you had any trouble on a recent test or homework assignment, we can begin by reviewing any problems you might have had on those. I will show you why the correct answers are right, and why the wrong answers are wrong. I am an excellent listener, and I always find a way to make the lessons fun.
I am a former high school math teacher, and a semi-retired Certified Public Accountant and a Certified professional tutor qualified to teach all math and science subjects through the high school, SAT, ACT, and advanced placement levels.

I have been a mentor and advisor for my two younger brothers for several years. My friends and collegues have benefited from both job placements and higher education advisement. I am attentive to peoples needs, very easy going, and have an abundance of patience. I do believe that key essential ingredients of a childs nuturing, from birth, are essential for the natural environment they will eventually encounter. One thing for sure is that, having had two younger brothers and having guided them in good decision making, has allowed me to understand what a student would need to achieve success in life.
As a college graduate and experienced professional of over ten years, I understand what it takes to succeed in an ever- changing environment.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style changes with my perception of a student's needs. My goal is to show students the path by which they can come to answers themselves. In discussing the subject matter with a student, I can gain a solid understanding of what he or she is capable. Using my patience and ability to effectively describe complicated concepts with analogies and visual aids, I have had great success. I care deeply about students with whom I interact, and I feel greatly rewarded when I have helped a student exceed expectations.
I have enjoyed each experience I have had with teaching, beginning with an informal position as a study group leader in the Genetics course I completed at Penn State University. While working on my MS at the University of Tennessee, I taught lecture and outdoor laboratory sessions for the Ornithology course, which included about 30 students. As the coordinator of the ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a young girl I grew up loving math and physics. I made sure to participate in every math and physics competitions in order to challenge myself and I was able to win two math competitions. While pursuing my bachelor degree I worked as a math tutor for college graduates who were preparing to take the GRE and GMAT. Last year I tutored a junior in high school who was working on achieving great results on his math tests. For me it was not only a great achievement, but also a great feeling watching him improve session by session.
During my experience as a tutor, I have gained the ability to identify the best way to convey the material in a way that matches the individual needs of the learner. Another thing that I have learned as a student and as a math tutor, is that the best and the most efficient way of learning in math is through practice and more practice. My father has helped me ... read more

I have become very adept at determining what level each student is at and tailoring my teaching style to suit the students that I am working with. In a class of over 20, I was able to reach each student with modified lessons and assignments. In the case of individual tutoring, I move at a rate that challenges the student while giving them ample opportunities to feel successful. I enjoy encouraging students to work to their best ability and am excellent at finding ways to motivate students who are stuck, bored, or find the topic too challenging.
I have tutored at the middle, high school, and college levels since my first year of college in 2004. Since then, I have worked as a paraeducator for the Special Education Dept. of an elementary school where I worked with first and second graders.

Every job I've ever had has been one where I teach. I had a job 3 years teaching ballroom dance, 2 years I coached T-ball, and for 4 years I've tutored math. I just recently graduated and I can't see myself not helping someone learn and love math. Math isn't a subject that everyone loves but I believe that can change with the right teacher. I'm not a tutor that gets frustrated and just tells the answer. I'm also not a person who makes things difficult to understand. With all the different teachers that I've had through my life I have picked up on a lot of their teaching techniques. I don't ever give up on someone and most of all, I love seeing the light bulb of understanding on someones face.
I graduated from a Pennsylvania Systems of Higher Education college with a B.S. in Mathematics and a minor in Physics. The entire time I was enrolled I was a tutor in the Math Assistant Center ... read more

My student’s exceptionality is Asberger’s Syndrome. I have been tutoring in the home for 7 years.

I graduated college with top honors. I worked as a Juvenile/Shelter Care Counselor at Berks County Youth Center where I worked with children of all ages and races. I am semi bi-lingual in Spanish. I took three years of Spanish courses in college. I supervised children in school and daily activities, but was also responsible for helping them complete all homework assignments, organize educational activities , help teach all school subjects, as well as tutor children in need of extra help in school. I have worked with children of all educational levels, especially since most of the children came from poverty stricken areas and were behind in their schooling,many with learning disabilities.
I enjoy working with children of all ages and skill levels. I feel that each child requires their own learning style and pace. I am a very patient and understanding person, as well as persistent. I ... read more

It's imperative to listen and understand a students challenges. Reviewing their previous work and giving a current test is a good indicator of the situation. I believe in practice and examples as the clearest path to success. I don't hand deliver answers and I make the process towards answers engaging. I make sure the time and place are conducive to active and non-distractive learning. I relay the importance and relevance of the material. I recap previous lessons and try to integrate them into current assignments. I always value and respect people and expect the same of my students.
I have trained students in a laboratory, restaurant and in the home. I graduated from college with honors and have succeeded in statistics, algebra 2, calculus 1, biology 1, chemistry 1, English literature, professional writing, civics, sketching/painting and classical guitar

Since I was a high school student, I always loved math and helping others understand the material. It was then that I realized that I wanted to teach math the way my friends understood it.

I make sure that the student in leading the way throughout the sessions and that we both learn before moving on.

I believe teaching should be an evolving, natural thing that constantly takes into account all the strengths and weaknesses presented, so that the student can learn the best way for him or her. It helps to get to know each student a bit so that the style needed is discovered and as many barriers as possible are brought down. I also try to keep engagement up by bringing in tangents of interest that the student can relate to in order to make it more understandable and applicable to his or her's life. Education should be a dynamic, stimulating experience for everyone.
My experience comes from a variety of places which accounts for my adaptability. I obtained an associates degree in Business Administration and went on to use that to get some experience in the business sector. I earned my Bachelors degree in Studio Arts and went on to get my Masters in Elementary Education. Since then ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy meeting new students who have trouble learning math and seeing themselves light up after a session or two of tutoring. I believe in the discovery method of learning and questioning to have the student aware of where he/she is having difficulty with math. Then we work from there and the needs of the student so the student can succeed. With the help of strategies all students can succeed in math and I strive to help each one do the best of his/her ability. I believe I do make a difference in the lives of the students I tutor.
I have just retired from teaching math at the middle school level and an adjunct math instructor at the college level for 35 years.
