My comments on tutoring Pre-Calculus : I wrote a curriculum for a Pre-Calculus course and have multiple years of experience teaching it to high school and college students.

I have experience tutoring and teaching Math, Science, and Computers at various levels up through professional. I have also taught and tutored in written, spoken, and signed languages including English, ASL, Japanese, and Hebrew. I've done test-preparation tutoring for the K-12 state tests, college admissions tests, grad school admissions exams, and professional certification exams.
I am patient, flexible, and versatile as a tutor. I understand that we all have different learning styles and that there is no one single approach that will work for everyone. I will show you multiple methods to solve a problem and help you find the one that works best for you. I have worked with adult learners, returning students, English language learners, and students with special needs. I have even taken formal coursework in education. I look forward to working with you and your individual educati ... read more

Any problem can be broken down into a simple set of steps

Applying the proper "learning process map" is essential for a student's success in learning and retaining information related to any subject: 1. Understand the application of a problem being presented to the student. 2. Apply and retain a simple set of steps required to solve the problem. This is essential to the students learning success. Many students first attempt to focus on a single problem without an understanding that the basic steps to solving the problem are the same. 3. Once the student has understood and retained step 2, then begin to present the student with numerous example problems to solve that present the same basic steps regardless of the appearance of the problem.

Having been in the sales field for over 17 years I understand that everyone learns differently. In order to be a successful teacher/tutor I believe you must first understand how someone processes information. After understanding that you can then move onto to teach that individual in the most appropriate way to maximize their learning. I also believe patience and perseverance are key to learning.
I started my undergraduate studies in medical technology and biology and later changed my major and graduated with a BS in business management. I further my education and have completed half of the requirements toward an MBA in pharmaceutical chemical studies. During the last 17 years I have been involved in pharmaceutical sales and sales management. In these roles I have had to mentor and teach representatives daily.

I tutored Calculus through the Peer tutoring program at my high school and at my College. I enjoy math and enjoy watching others learn it as well. Because of my love of math and hands on work I chose Mechanical Engineering as my major with a minor in Architecture. I am doing very well so far and enjoying it also.
I am a visual learner and the best way to teach would be to give the learner something he can visually grasp. First if possible demonstrate visually then combine that with numbers and show the proper steps to solve the problem algebraically. Then offer different situations and examples for them to practice.

I learn visually and like to teach that way. I believe there is a great deal of concepts and memorization in Chemistry. I am not able to memorize all of the subject and would not ask a student to. Instead, explanation and demonstration of the concept, followed by memorization of the rule grants a greater understanding. The rule can then be applied to other areas and is worth much more than a large volume of memorized information. This is possibly more true in the fields of Math and Physics, learning rules and concepts goes a long way. I prefer to patiently explain, draw, or demonstrate the concept at hand then work on problems that further illustrate that concept.

More About This Tutor...

When teaching or tutoring a student I have found that there are several factors in how it should be approached. The most important of the factors are the subject matter and the students learning style. The learning style of the student has to be considered when teaching. Helping a student learn requires finding the most effective method. You want to make sure they understand the subject matter while exposing them to other possible ways to approach difficult problems. You can provide tools not only for the problems they are having but preparing them to handle future difficulties. Teaching can be rewarding as you help the student help themselves by discovering their own strength and weakness as well as was to improve.
