Elementary Science Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help

A person who has strong negative feelings about learning is automatically hindered in any learning environment. I first gain the trust of my students, and then start to build an appreciation for learning in their minds. Once that process has begun, I inject a sense of humor, a sense of patience, and a great deal of love into my teaching. I have been a classroom teacher for over 20 years. I have taught all subjects in elementary school, English, history, and mathematics in middle school, and English composition and literature in high school. Additionally, I have taught mass communication and creative writing in high school. I have taught remedial English, freshman composition, and technical writing on a collegiate level.

My style of teaching is comprehensible. The most important for student is practicing a lot of different examples, especially in math. I try to bring examples from real life, that makes it easier to recognize and remember special cases and formulas. That makes studies much more interesting when you use math with real life. My explanation is simple and I try to approach it in different ways, so the student will have clear understanding of the certain topic. Have been teaching math 5 high school students, 3 university students. Helped to prepare for the exams and tests in such subjects as math(algebra, geometry, trigonometry, calculus, ...), chemistry, physics, german. Helped and explained how to do homework, also prepared material and different examples, so the person can understand the topic better. After my work with students, I saw significant improvement in their results and desire to

I feel a great deal of satisfaction in assisting children to fulfill their educational potentials. I believe that a solid foundation in arithmetical and writing/reading basics is essential for further educational success. I therefore prefer to tutor elementary school children. I believe that a prime goal of a tutor is to prepare material that the students can enjoy while they are learning and developing study skills. This will foster a desire to learn and a love for learning. I currently tutor privately 2 days a week for a 2nd Grader diagnosed with ADHD in reading comprehension, writing, and math. As Tutor at Hodge Road Elementary School, Knightdale NC I conducted Pre-and-Post-Tutorial Assessment Testing; prepared individualized lesson plans for K-5th Grade students in Language Arts and Mathematics; guided students in developing educational skills; assisted students in understanding l

I have been tutoring students privately since 2004 in a variety of subjects for grade levels ranging from elementary to graduate level university coursework and Ph.D. dissertations. I mostly tutor students in Mathematics, Literature/Humanities, and Business courses. However, I have also tutored many students from grades 1-12, but I am also experienced tutoring traditional and non-traditional college students. I also tutored and graded for the John Carroll University Department of Mathematics and Computer Science for five years. In addition, I have two years of Statistical Consulting experience in a variety of different fields, whereby I use mostly SAS and SPSS, as well as STATA. Currently, I am pursuing a MA in Criminal Justice and Criminology, and looking forward to attending Law School in the distant future.

I have a PhD in Education and graduated school with a 3.8 GPA. I have six years experience in private tutoring for students in elementary, middle and high school. I also have six years experience teaching GED classes in non-profit organizations (e.g. The Salvation Army in South Phoenix, Arizona). Students and parents feel that I am knowledgeable of the subject matter, pay close attention to detail and provide individualized learning experiences. My teaching philosophy is based on individualized learning and high expectations. I also rely a great deal on the opinions of parents and teachers to support the student to reach their full potential. The goal is for students to become independent workers who can critically analyze their assignments and goals and take the lead on excelling.

My experience with approx. 25 different learning challenges (diagnoses) has allowed me to become sensitive to individual students' needs--behaviorally, emotionally, and academically. In the last 20 years of tutorial services and as a contracted para-ed within my local school district, I have gained much from observing students' success and struggles. Their accomplishments have resulted in a personal excitement to continue assisting in their life-changing work. Students have ranged from pre-K to college level/adult; from those learning basic life-skills to others working toward an advanced college degree; and from frequent in-person sessions per week at the student's home to one-time project work at a library site. My experience has developed my versatile, motivational, and sensitive style. Beyond simply "tutoring", my work with students is aimed at long-term cognitive development. Ins

For the past two years I have worked for Advanced Learners tutoring students in Math, Reading and Writing. My students ranged from 1st Grade to College Prep.

I taught GED classes in both Polk and Broward Counties, Florida for a total of 8 years 2002-2004 and 1991-1997. I was a college Math and English instructor plus Coordinator of Remedial Studies at the Art Institute of Ft. Lauderdale, an Applied Arts College, from 1996-2002.

I have tutored online and in person for over 10 years. I have edited over one-thousand essays, and have tutored grammar, poetry, and all aspects of writing and rhetoric. I taught tenth-grade English in a High School during the 2004-2006 school years. Additionally, I taught in the private sector at the middle-school level, grades 6-8. This past year I made the choice to take time off from teaching in order to focus on obtaining my MAT in secondary English, which I will complete in May of this year. I am very anxious to begin teaching again. The years that I taught were extremely rewarding and fulfilling. My students exhibited diversities in learning styles, backgrounds, cultures, and interests. I have taught English to students at many levels, including, standard, honors and advanced placement. . It has been and will always be my utmost goal to tailor my teaching methods to best meet the

I was a senior scientist - engineer for 37 years. I retired to care for my comatose wife at home, and she died a few months later. This situation has left me open to new directions. My teaching experience has been 3 years as a graduate teaching assistant, and 2 years as a tutor to friends and family in science and mathematics. My goal is to show how math and science can enrich one's life and these subjects are nothing to fear. I follow the method of G. Polya in his classic work "How to Solve It". By asking the right questions, one can help the student define his problem, form a plan for the solution, carry out the plan, and examine the result. I also try to work as many difficult problems from the student's text as time permits, in order to show that all problems have a solution, and the student can build confidence in attacking any problem. I try to present the material in as man
