I believe in the value of one-on-one tutoring, and I actively listen to the student’s questions and responses to uncover any barriers to the understanding of a problem. I depend upon regular review at the beginning of each session to both assess the student’s progress and grade my own effectiveness as a tutor and mentor. I also employ real-life examples to aid in understanding as I have found that most young people learn and retain far more when practical applications are used to reinforce theory and practice. Finally, in addition to improving grades and preparing for the next level of education, my goal is to equip the student with tools for continued success. I have earned BS, MS, & PhD degrees in Chemical Engineering. This accomplishment required a broad fundamental knowledge of mathematics, chemistry and engineering. Opportunities for teaching, mentoring and tutoring arose during

As an engineering major, I learned what it takes to work hard and excel in academics. I graduated at the top of my class with a 3.9 GPA. The engineering degree provided me with a deep understanding of both math and science and has enabled me to tutor and teach in those subjects at most levels. Over the past year I have been tutoring and substitute teaching in a variety of subjects with a focus on math and science. I love working with youth, both in the classroom and outside it. I am inspired by helping create knowledgeable and inquisitive children by providing them with the skills necessary for academic success. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences and that is precisely what I strive to do. Not every child learns the same and with this knowledge I am able to modify my teaching style to fit the learning sty

I have Bachelor's Degrees in English & Spanish, a Master's Degree in English, and am rated 'advanced low' on the Arabic Oral Proficiency exam. My Spanish training includes 42 college level credit-hours, as well as a semester studying in Mexico. I have tutored language for native and non-native speakers on high-school and college levels. I also taught the high school curriculum, including Social Studies, Pre-Algebra, Algebra, Geometry, Physical Science, English and Geography to a class of JobCorps candidates who had been failing students, many with special learning needs, and helped all of them to graduate with diplomas within 5 months. I am self-taught and proficient on all MS applications, plus HTML-, CSS-, PHP- and Java-based design. I'm most interested in tutoring on the high-school or college level, but I do have experience teaching young children as well. I believe that the big

I am a huge supporter of the idea that anyone can learn anything that they desire. With that being said, it seems that there should be no problem with students learning mathematics; but there is. Many children have no desire to learn mathematics because they see no relevance for it in their daily lives. I very much enjoy working with children and when I tutor, I enjoy making math more fun and relevant for them. I have had much success doing so, for I have a strong ability to put understanding in students' minds, where understanding did not previously exist. I believe that good education can make a world of difference in children's lives. As the son of two life-long public educators, the importance of a quality education has always a major theme in my life. Upon entering college I choose mathematics as a major due to the proficiency I have always had in the subject. During my studi

I began tutoring informally about 15 years ago, by helping classmates in my high school algebra, trigonometry and calculus courses. Since, I have gained experience in group & private tutoring settings and have worked with students of all levels of understanding, as well as those with developmental disabilities. While earning my BS, MS and PhD in Mathematics, I worked in other aspects of education- as a teaching assistant and instructor, both at the college level. Currently I am an assistant professor of mathematics and during the school year hold open tutoring hours in the college’s Enrichment Center. I have taught/tutored extensively in mathematics (from middle school topics to college senior level courses) as well as some physics topics. With the many different learning styles of students I try to be dynamic in my teaching, to adapt to a particular students’ needs. In tutoring mathem

I am an encourager by nature, build individuals and enjoy teaching. Very patient, easy going, respectful, creative, and try to apply visuals or explain an visual to assist those being taught to understand the subject matter. Always optimistic and upbeat. Try to share enthusiasm I feel in teaching for those to learn. It is always my goal either in academia or ministry instruction, try to broaden ones knowledge, thinking and thought process. Building confidence is key, once one has confidence and encouraged, they learn more and normally thirst for more. I want to make a difference, to help those grow as individuals and students. Being educated and experienced in civil engineering for over 25 years, I have through those years mentored and taught interns. Currently unemployed and considering acquiring teaching certificate to permit me to teach (K-12) math. Experience in teaching adults

I approach every student as a unique individual with his or her own struggles. In general, I teach mathematics in a direct and simple way. I do not treat the subject as a game or a bag of tricks. Once the fundamental concept is understood, then I push the students knowledge of applications. However, it is sometimes helpful to open up topics with simple examples. I believe anyone can advance her or her knowledge of mathematics with only a little patience and a larger amount of eagerness to succeed. For the past seven years I have studied mathematics. Most of those years were spent at Wichita State University. I received my M.S. degree in mathematics while studying dynamical systems under Christian Wolf. I worked as a graduate teacher by instructing courses in Algebra, Trigonometry, etc and by tutoring in all mathematics courses offered at the university through the Calculus sequenc

I begin teaching each tutee by first observing their own approach to studying, listening to their explanations and questions about the material, and indentifying their strengths and deficincies with respect to knowledge of the subject. Then I attempt to mold my approach based on these observations, course requirements, and my own personal belief that we are all capable of learning most anything as long as it is presented to us in a way we can understand and that is enjoyable and exciting for the student. Since childhood, my hunger for knowledge has driven me to study and learn about almost as much as I possibly could. My high estimation of learning has often led me to help others to learn whenever I can. Always drawn to math and science, I pursued chemistry in college and received my B.S. from North Carolina State University in Chemistry in 2002. In grade school and high-school I was alw

I have worked with a large spectrum of skill levels & motivations, & have developed skills to meet all levels. I have extensive experience working with learning disabled children, & many of my strategies are geared to diverse learners. I have mainly tutored upper level/motivated students, but I try to fuse my methods together. I discuss problem solving techniques, word problem approaches, patterns, non-calculator skills, & vocab in order to promote self-confidence and understanding of their weaknesses/strengths. I encourage them to ask questions, interrupt for clarification, & to feel comfortable with me. I am known amongst peers as having excellent rapport with students of all social groups, and being respected by them, not just liked. I graduated Brandeis with degrees in Psych. & Engl./Amer. Lit, with a Sec. Ed. minor; I also was a TA for a humanities course as a senior. Though I

I have completed courses in algebra, calculus, statistics, physics, chemistry, organic chemistry, cell biology, ecology, and other biology related courses all of which require a high math and science competency. I have also performed extensive research at UNCC and graduated with a 3.1. I have also tutored college students in chemistry and algebra on the side. I come from a family of educators -- a college professor, a principal, an elementary school teacher, and a school counselor and basketball coach. I think all of these members of my family have influenced me in a positive way in regards to teaching. I am a compassionate, patient person and am willing to help when people need it. I have been told by fellow classmates that I should become a teacher. I also have experience in a school-structured summer camp in which training was obtained and a curriculum was followed.

As a fellow during my graduate work at Indiana University, I taught undergraduate courses focused on helping students improve their written and oral communication skills. While pursuing a double major during my undergraduate years at the University of Notre Dame, I served as a university tutor, helping students in chemistry, communications, English and Spanish. Additionally, I have served as a volunteer for Head Start, a national government program that provides learning opportunities for preschool children from disadvantaged families. I have worked with children as young as three years old; at the same time, I have taught 30- and 40-somethings returning to the classroom for the first time in 20 years. Each child learns in a different way. I enjoy finding what works for each child. In the current state of education, children often find themselves burdened with an exorbitant amount of wo

I believe that in order to teach you must be able to understand learning styles of each individual child and approach them on a case by case basis. With encouragement, commitment and proper technique I can make a significant contribution to a child's education. I feel that it is very important to help a child understand that learning is a privilege and will benefit them throughout their lives. I am confident that I can help my students discover their full potential and experience a true sense of fulfillment in doing so. As a graduate in Biological Engineering from NCSU, I have extensive experience in very complex areas of math and science, which also relied on a thorough understanding of the most basic concepts of these subjects. As an Engineer I have demonstrated the ability to solve complex problems, communicate effectively and follow a strict set of ethical guidelines. As a young fath
