1st 30 min lesson is FREE. Vast experience in Math & Chess

1st 30 min lesson is FREE! Throughout my career and also my time in school, I have always been able to not only achieve success in various levels of mathematics, but also articulate to others through teaching and working through examples so that they can achieve similar success and have a clearer understanding of how to complete their work independently. I also have over 25 years of chess experience, including both playing and teaching. I was taught at the high school level by someone who has coached many individuals and teams to various local, state and national championship victories. I also run an annual Sudoku seminar locally, where I walk through examples of puzzles with full crowd participation, and discuss tips and tricks to get you through more challenging puzzles.

I am a Chartered Accountant and have passed the CPA exam. I have been working in the Finance sector for over 15 years. I have also had a stint in teaching while doing my certfication as a HighSchool Math teacher.I have also substitute taught for 3 years in various subject areas.
I am of the opinion that children should be given clues and lead on to discover answers to questions. In some areas I like them to memorize certain facts which will help them solve problems better. A combination of memorizing and deriving from basic known concepts will help a child solve any problem without having to sweat over it.

A Little Bit About Me...

Coming from a poor background I was very much determined to change my family economic situation. I work hard and smart to make this happen and in the process I have acquired training and learning skills that will empower students from every background. In 1998 I founded a non-profit organization GHAPE and I have been providing varied trainings to the needy to explore their potentials. In 2008 I was an adjunct professor at the University of Bridgeport. I will again be teaching one course to undergraduate in the Fall of 2010.
My teaching methods are determined by my audience, that is the student. I use lecture method, inquiry, demonstration, visualization, questions and answers, discovery and constructivism which is a student center appraoch. I hold that students can reach their potential if carefully guided. I work each day striving to pull the best out of each student.

Earning a BS in Materials Science and Engineering involves knowledge of math, physics, and chemistry. Grammatical and writing skills have been strengthened over the years by writing for the college newspaper, laboratory reports and an extensive amount of research papers due to interests in public policy. Engineers usually cannot write; I can. I tutored extensively in high school, it was my primary income stream, while college revolved more around study groups where whoever knew the most took the lead. It was a revolving position but I often held it.
I feel that understanding the 'why' leads people to more easily grasp larger concepts and makes mistakes easier to recognize. After that practice is absolutely necessary: repetition IS the mother of learning. For children all this has to be presented in an accessible way. I try to contextualize problems in math and science in order to m ... read more

My teaching style is a combination of serious, in-depth theory and practical examples to demonstrate such theories, all with a hint of humor, followed by significant practice of the newly learned skills. I've been "teaching" people all of my business career. I always start with the underlying theory and immediately segue into a practical example of how the principles work. I think students want to learn, but need the information presented in a way that makes learning interesting, not boring. I have that ability. I'm able to integrate relevant practical examples because I have a very broad range of experience, having been an entrepreneur and turnaround management consultant for over 40 years.

I taught a wide variety of business related courses; Accounting 1 &2, Automated Accounting, Business, Math, Automated Data Processing, Business Law, Introduction to the Stock Market and Investing, Workplace Readiness, Introduction to Business, Business Management, Web Page and Graphic Design, Introduction to the Internet, and Computer Literacy. I also taught Algebra I and a math class in a GED. program.
I like to first of all evaluate my student(s) and determine what approach will give them the greatest chance for success. When it comes to difficult material I break it down into small modules so that it is not too over whelming for the student. There are very many learning styles which need to be recognized, and I alter my approach to best serve the learning style of the student.

As a former HS Math teacher in NYC I have great experience working with students that many other teachers regard as "difficult". As a product of NYC public schools I was well suited to work with such students and had great success in helping them achieve their academic goals and make better choices in their lives. I often encounter students who thank me for the help and orientation I provided at a time when it would have been all too easy to succumb to peer pressure and make wrong choices.
I am especially well versed at helping students that have great difficulty in learning subjects such as math. I have developed new teaching methods that are extremely effective. I have been able to help many disaffected students who had given up on themselves and who other teachers viewed s hopeless cases. I find it very gratifying to rekindle a student's passion for education and a love of ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe any student is capable of learning any subject when they are taught in a gentle and patient manner. It is important to help the student gain confidence with the subject and to build his self-esteem. As the student increases his knowledge and problem-solving abilities his confidence and curiosity will also increase. Learning will become a lifetime pursuit.
I have four semesters of calculus, numerous chemistry, physics, engineering, computer science, statistics, finance, accounting, marketing, management, and liberal arts courses. I also have a temporary CT teaching certificate for secondary education math.

Through my University’s thorough teacher preparation program, I worked with general education students and students with disabilities.

I enjoy tutoring students; especially when I feel that students are improving greatly because of the time I spent with them. The most recent high school student I tutored is actually in College in Pensylvannia. During my time with him, I not only helped him with his math problems, but also helped him understand that math is a very important subject in our life and you must have the desire to excel at it.
I have a Bachelor degree in computer engineering and a minor in Mathematics from the University of Bridgeport. I also obtained my MBA at Southern CT State University. I have been tutoring mathematics ( algebra and calculus) to high school and college students and I really enjoy it.

I have a double degree in Accounting and Finance and have had the opportunity to put these degrees to use in the workplace. Whether it's financial statement analysis or remediation, I have the hands on experience in accounting and finance that enables me to relate classroom concepts to real world problems. Being able to teach real world applications helps the student understand the reasons behind the rules established by the leading authorities in accounting.
I thoroughly enjoy accounting and would be honored to work with children and young adults in teaching them the skills I have gained throughout the years. I believe in teaching hands on and focusing on children's strengths rather than their weaknesses. I also have the patience and the desire to work with children and teach them the fundamentals of accounting. Their future can be promising if they master the basics. Once the b ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is primarily geared toward errorless teaching, and giving the student many opportunities to respond. It is very important that the student practice sufficiently without making errors, supported by prompts that are faded as material is learned. I meet the learner at his current level, and then progress in small increments, testing frequently for mastery. In this way, it becomes very apparent what skills need the most attention, and frustration is avoided. I love helping students see that they can be successful learners. I strive to provide an atmosphere that is positive, interesting, and fun.
In college, I double-majored in math and economics, and my SAT scores were 700 math/ 700 verbal. My GRE verbal score was 760. I have eight years of professional experience working with regular education and special educational students from preschool through the upper ele ... read more
