Logic Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Florissant, MO

Tutoring has been a somewhat informal yet ever-present aspect of both my collegiate life and professional career. While focusing on pursuing my civil engineering degree at Purdue University, I realized the value that peers with non-engineering degrees saw in my unique gifts with mathematics. Although I never pursued formal teaching certifications, I have worked with several people, both recently and in the past, to realize their full potential to understand both basic as well as advanced level mathematics concepts.

As a student at the University of Chicago, I have tutored at the local Ray Elementary school through the Neighborhood Schools program. There, I tutored two fourth grade ESL students, an Italian boy and a Korean girl, primarily in math and reading. I have also tutored at the STRIVE tutoring center, helping a 7th grader and 8th grader with math and reading. As a mathematics major and a math whiz in high school, I have covered calculus and algebra material many times over and approached them in multiple ways (analysis, IBL, etc). In addition, I have had a lot of experience writing papers and editing peer papers for style and grammar. As a tutor, I understand my responsibility primarily as that of helping children reach their potential. I try to help my students understand concepts they are struggling with in primarily three ways. First, I find what their strengths are and see if I ca

I think my teaching style is very open. I try to adapt to the person that I am helping. My main focus is to help the student. I am a very patient person and will take whatever time is needed to make sure the student fully understands the material. I think with my outgoing personality I am able to connect with the student on a personal level, which allows for more open communication. With this open communication this allows the doorway to be open for higher learning. A wise person once told me that "the only stupid question is a question that is not asked". I hold true to this statement and I preach this with my students. I have a bachelor degree in Computer Science, so with this degree, I was able to utilize my math skills. I was a tutor for 2 years at 2 different area colleges. I tutored college students anywhere from basic math up to Calculus. I also helped students prepa

I understand that students learn at different speed, but this speed can be improved with time and constant practice. Everybody have the ability to learn if given the opportunity, and this is what I am always willing to do. I enjoy teaching because I know I can bring out the best in my students I have four years teaching experience in all levels of education. I have been involved helping students improve their learning skills. Students need a teacher that can break complex problems to simple forms for better understanding, and this is my role. I have experience in math and science.

Since students learn in many ways—by seeing and hearing; reflecting and acting; reasoning logically and intuitively; memorizing and visualizing,I provide various guidelines for how I want tasks completed in this course based upon student pool. Students might describe me as a knowledgeable coach who dispenses the fact, principles, and concepts they need and works closely with someone to correct problems in how they think and behave. I give students a lot of personal support and encouragement to do well in their course. As a supplemental Instructor/tutor at UMSL Department of Biology, I facilitate the learning process by explaining concepts and encouraging open communication with students. In addition, I conduct weekly review sessions to integrate how-to-learn with what-to-learn. I grade exams and laboratory reports.

Upon graduating from an accredited college, Saint Louis University, I was confident that I would use my education in the best way possible. One of the principles that SLU teaches its student is to give back to the community. In my opinion, there is no better way to do than through education. My experience includes 3 years of mentoring with Mentor St.Louis. During this time, I was paired with one or two students during the school year. We would have 2 sessions a month where we'd read books and teach the months lesson. I have tutored my younger siblings through elementary and middle school. I have a strong love and am enthusiatic about math. I have always excelled in this area. Speacialty areas are trig and all levels of alegebra. I do beleive that knowledge is power. I am a knowledge seeker and am inclined to share that knowledge that I have acquired. Children are the biggest knowledge se

I am a natural at teaching since even my off duty activities are educational. For years, I was a library docent and volunteer and now I am a volunteer at the St. Louis Science Center. I have tutored one on one and at various middle schools and I taught at a high school program for delinquent students who were reentering the educational system. I taught any subject needed. I am currently enhancing my math knowledge for the purpose of improving my teaching skills and job opportunities. I can work alone or be a team player. I am flexible in my teaching style. I will use visual aids and the blackboard normally. I give workshops or quizzes to assess the progress of the student. I expose the student to educational technology that is used by industry and I teach traditional methods but if I find these fail I use other time proven teaching methods for mathematics like high speed math, etc. I hav

I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn but each in different ways. I'm available to help you child find academic success. I'm patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible. I'm a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providing a constructivist approach to learning. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. A few good educators can make a worked of difference to a child's education. I strive to make a difference in all of my students Lives. As a post graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a level of excellence in education. I have earned a bachelors degree, BE in Electrical Engineering and a Masters Degree in Information Systems, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of math and science. In

As a senior civil engineering student at Washington University, I have received an outstanding education, especially in math and science. I will graduate in May with a B.S. in Civil Engineering. In the fall, I will pursue a master's degree in civil engineering. Even though my fortes are in math and science, I believe that I have more than sufficient written and communication skills that would be valuable in tutoring. In high school, I tutored advanced algebra for a year, and I also taught Spanish to elementary school students. I also have tutoring experience working with high school age African immigrants. I tutored them in English and math. I also helped them prepare for the GED if they were not enrolled in high school classes. Not everyone learns in the same way. I try to discern how the student I am tutoring learns best, whether it's by just doing examples, or visually by phys

While attending Southwestern Illinois College, I volunteered as a tutor, instructing college level Algebra, Geometry, and Calculus. Also gave instruction in Biology and Chemistry. While pursuing my degree in electrical engineering, I expanded my knowledge in Math and Science. I also gained insight from a student prospective. I enjoy helping others to succeed. I believe in taking a personal interest in students success; reviewing each quiz and test taken to see where strengths lie and where improvements needed to be made. I also believe that people have different means of learning, from reading and lecturing; to seeing and gaining hands on experience. I also believe that no student is beyond help; they simply have not yet found thier means of gaining and retaining the knowledge.

As a substitute teacher in the Bethalto school district, I feel I have been trained in all of the subjects necessary to tutor students. On a daily occurrence, I teach math, science, english, reading, social studies, etc. My specialties are english and reading. English was my minor in college and is something that has always been second nature to me. I was also a personal tutor for a child in the spring of '08 an fall of '08. His grades improved drastically from Ds and Fs, to Bs. I have a very unique way of teaching. My key to success works on a system of discipline and rewards. I find creative ways to make the most mundane tasks fun to accomplish. I think the number on rule in teaching strategy should be finding a way to make the process enjoyable. I believe most kids that do poorly in school have an incredibly hard time putting their hearts into tutoring. In my professional experience,
