A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is one of excitement and enthusiasm. I am passionate about the material I teach, and try to convey this excitement to my students without being annoying and over enthused. In the fields of physics and mathematics, I prefer to use analogies and easy to understand examples to help students learn specific principles and to help show them the big picture into which their hard work fits. I emphasize students taking pride in their work and steadily gaining self-confidence.
As a mechanical engineering graduate from Penn State, I have vast experience with the principles of physics and mathematics. As a junior and senior in high school I tutored students in algebra and trigonometry. In college I tutored students in my own physics classes as well as volunteering my time as a tutor for engineering students in statics, dynamics, thermodynamics, basic electrical circuits, ... read more

My philosophy is primarily founded on the simple knowledge that learning is imperative; thus, I recognize the importance of ensuring that each student is taught the subject material and rigorously instructed how to learn the material. To meet this goal, I meet with a client to evaluate his/her learning skills and habits, goals, and knowledge of the particular subject matter. However, I also emphasize that he/she must be able to comprehend the particular demands of his/her instructor, as this knowledge is necessary to "get the grade". Thus, I review the student's notes and tests to determine instructor tendencies that will to better help the student succeed by emphasizing the most important matters of the instructor.
As a well educated professional who has completed both his bachelor's and juris doctorate degrees, I have developed the skills to help students excel in a variety ... read more

I have always had a deep appreciation and passion for the English language. I began reading at the age of three, and excelled in reading and grammar throughout my public school education. As a Marketing professional for more than 25 years, I have written extensively for clients. I recently collaborated on a play which is being produced in November of this year. Between February of 2007 and December of 2008, I was privileged to serve as an instructor in Therapeutic Massage at North Georgia Technical College. During that time I was nominated by my students and proudly received the Golden Apple Award for "outstanding service to the students, the school and the community".
My teaching style is very interactive. I like to hear what the student has to say, and to tune in to the best way to approach each student. I know that each of us learns in our own unique way, and that the best resul ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a college senior, I've come to value greatly my education. Prior to enrolling at the University of Georgia, I made a perfect 800 on the math section of my SATs. Even though I am a science major, I have a great understanding of math. Currently, I tutor middle schoolers in basic algebra, most of whom are struggling and need a lot of help. I have also recently finished an entire college online algebra course online for someone with a 96 average.
My strongest suit in my teaching style is probably the many ways that I would approach teaching a certain principle. If the student does not understand one way to approach a problem, I try to best to help them understand and learn another way. I feel like since everyone learns differently, a tutor should approach a problem from as many angles as possible. My teaching style is also very patient. I suppose the saying "give a man a fis ... read more
