PhD Physics, able to tutor in science, math, engineering

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 ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I just graduated from PLU with a degree in Business, a concentration in human resources, and a minor in psychology. I maintained a high GPA throughout my college experience and graduated with honors. I have very good study skills and am very organized. I took a variety of classes and excelled in writing papers and test preparation. I have never tutored children but have given children riding lessons and have helped 4-H children learn horsemanship skills. I consider myself very patient and a good teacher. When they don't understand something I work hard to try to explain it in a different way. I have also corrected and given feedback on fellow college student’s papers and assignments.
I love helping and teaching children. I have given riding lessons to all ages of children for years, realizing there is no better feeling than helping children accomplish their goals. I would love to h ... read more

I recognize that students have different learning styles, so I try to adjust my tutoring style to my student's particular needs. I myself am a visual learner, so would say I naturally lean towards teaching in a visual style.
I am a 24 year old Mathematics Instructor at a couple local Community Colleges. I have a Bachelors degree in Mathematics and am currently working on a Masters degree in Applied Mathematics through the University of Washington. I have tutored privately since High School( about 6 years ago). I have tutored through various tutoring agencies for the past 3 years.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe any student irrespective of cultural, ethnic, religious and family background is capable of achieving final destination of his/her career, such as doctor, engineer, chemist, nurse, technician etc. In order to attain this, he/she needs to be helped, guided, encouraged, and motivated by an experienced tutor. I like to help studensts by checking their weekness of knowledge in a particular topic of a subject through various tests and help them out by explaining in different ways with appropriate examples. The purpose is to make the subject more interesting so that the student is motivated to seek knowledge in order to exhibit excellence.

Everyone has the ability to learn but not everyone has the same ability. Most people are visual or tactile learners whereas most teachers, in my experience, use verbal/aural instruction methods. I believe in tailoring my teaching to the needs of the student and not to what I am most relaxed with. I have personally taught several tactile students who had to have something in their hands or they could not grasp the concepts. Other times I've instructed students in strong visual methods incorporating drawings, artwork and short videos.
During my studies at USU I worked at Adams Elementary both as a Teachers Aid as well as a Mentor during the After School Program. I worked one-on-one as well as in groups of students grade k-5.

My teaching style is the shrapnel method. I like to use a large variety of techniques - visual, auditory, games, etc - to achieve the same goal. This keeps interest up and allows me to narrow in on the method that is most valuable to a specific student.
I taught introductory zoology lab to freshman at Mississippi State University. Then I served in the Peace Corps where I taught daily 13 3 year olds to 15 year olds English, mathematics, and arts and crafts. I also taught basic library skills to all the elementary school classes.

In general, for math I believe teaching step by step in systematic way is helpful for students to grab the concepts. Then help students to relate the concepts is also important. And as a tutor, being patient and flexible in teaching methods are essential. I am patient to repeat and often give continuous encouragement when students struggle. Also, since different students learn differently, so sometimes even for the same concept, I am flexible in different ways of explanation. And in the beginning of each tutoring session, I first come up with an outline of all the topics to be covered with the approximate time needed, so I can use time most efficiently.
Last summer I taught pre-algebra to middle school students, and this summer I taught general math to elementary school students. I like working with kids since they are energetic. Even though some of them don't like the subjec ... read more
