Calculus I Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Elk, WA

As a math major, I tutored my peers throughout college. While I can tutor almost any math subject and several science subjects, my favorite subject to teach is algebra. I have found that those who struggle with higher math, including calculus and differential equations, often struggle due to lacking a solid foundation in algebra. If I can help you succeed in algebra, it will set you up well for future math and science courses.

As one of only 60 graduates in the Biochemistry&Molecular Biophysics program, I have extensive training in mathematics, physical/organic chemistry, and biophysics. My double major in Molecular&Cellular Biology couples biological systems and human physiology with the "harder" physical/chemical sciences. With over 5 years experience as a Medical Dosimetrist, I have only recently turned to more creative pursuits. I'm currently a freelance writer, composing print copy, articles, reports, web content, and e books. Most of my direct tutoring experience has been through college(I led many study groups), and through work (training med students), but I have also assisted my son and his friends throughout his (now 6th grade) scholastic career. I am very flexible with my communication style, and can easily and quickly assess and tailor my teaching style with whomever I am teaching. I like think

Children and adults learn in different ways. Visual, auditory, kinesthetic are three ways that people can learn, I happen to be mostly kinesthetic. I alter how I teach depending on what my students need and what the resources are. I do use a constructivist teaching style to do this. I do believe that a student rises to the expectations of the instructor. I also believe that the responsibility of learning should be increasingly the students as they take over their own education away from the instructor. While the instructor is giving over the job of education to the student they should still contribute to broadening the students knowledge horizons by offering challenges. When I was a kid I used to ask questions about things. My questions were usually of the natural sciences bent. I was eight. As an adult, knowing I was going to have a daughter, I discovered that I needed to be respecte

To listen is to learn; this goes hand-in-hand with asking questions. In order to learn, one has to process information at his own pace. Questions are sometimes more important than answers. I also believe a seed can be planted along the way. In other words, as one proceeds learning, a new concept can be introduced that might not make sense at the time, but will spark recognition later. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. I love to inspire others, and I strive to make a difference in lives. I completed my Bachelor of Science degree in Education with a mathematics major from Northern State University at Aberdeen, South Dakota. Being a continual learner, I also completed a broadfield science endorsement in Montana. Twelve years teaching experience has given me extensive opportunities teaching secondary mathematics and science to various cultures in Alaska, Montana, and South D

I love teaching, and I strongly believe that teaching is the student's assistance of discovery. Any student can learn what they put their heart into, and all they need is motivation. I love to motivate and help students to be excited about learning. I am very laid back, patient, and easy going. I have recently have earned a BS degree in Electrical Engineering and a minor in Mathematics in DEC 2009. I have helped and still currently tutor my younger brother through his calculus courses. I work very well in teaching and working with others. I have taught martial arts self defense and discipline for over 10 years in Wind Fist Kung Fu as an instructor. I am very ambitious and I look forward to tutoring students in the subjects of pre-algebra, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, pre-calculus, calculus, calculus II, and physics. I am also willing to tutor college students pursuing EE degrees in t

Although I have graduated, I still see myself as a student still learning. I take that with me when I teach fellow students. I try to make it an experience where we are all learning something together. This prevents me from just telling someone what to learn, instead it shows someone how to learn. During my years in high school I struggled. At one point my GPA fell below a 2.0. I learned how to bounce back by improving study habits and hard work and ended up graduating college with biology degree with a 4.0 GPA. I share this because I can relate to the struggles of school and I have the tools to help overcome that struggle. I want to share these tools with others. Anyone can be successful in school and I am an example of that. I am a recent graduate with straight A’s from Lewis-Clark State College with a major in Biology. I took many classes in math to receive my degree. I tuto

I work to explore and supplement the existing knowledge of each student. I do not give answers but rather provide direction and support. Quantitative problems require self-confidence,I help students develop poise. I have earned dual undergraduate degrees, a BA in Mathematics and a BA in Economics, from Eastern Washington University. While attending EWU I worked as a econometrics tutor and teaching assistant. I have been admitted to a PhD program at Washington State University for this coming fall. Through tutoring at EWU, I have demonstrated an ability to effectively communicate with diverse populations. I have strong quantitative skills in mathematical, statistical and economic contexts.

I have always felt that everyone can learn. I recognize that for some there are more obstacles to overcome and it may take more time and energy, but I still believe they are capable. I have come across many students that have somehow got it in their mind that they "just can't do math" and not once have I seen this to be true. It is encouraging and exciting to see students grow in confidence and skill as they recognize their true capability. I enjoy tutoring because it provides the opportunity to focus on a child's individual needs and experiences. I am patient and encouraging and have an infectious love for math. My aim is for students to not only acquire math skills but to enjoy it along the way as well. For the past five years I have had the pleasure of teaching at an international school overseas. Due to the size of the school, I taught various levels of math at the secondary

My teaching style is to assess each person's learning style and build my lessons around their individual style. Some people are more visual others are more hands on. I tailor my lessons and assistance to their individual needs. I have significant work experience as a controller for a large manufacturer with over 500 employees and $75 million in revenue. In addition I have experience as a CFO for a non profit with 30 employees. I have tutored numerous MBA students in accounting, finance, and management courses.
