I look forward to using my experience working with adults (college students, new employees, clients, professionals) to help each student to progress academically. As a professional facilitator, I am skilled at bringing students to an understanding of the material. Training new employees has provided me with the skills to help adults get oriented to new material and information. My style is based on incorporating everyday experiences to make the lessons come to life in the mind of the student. As adult learners, in particular, we look to our life experiences to inform our learning. I work with individuals and small groups to help them to achieve understanding.

I have been a Math and SAT Math tutor since September of 2008. During that time I have had success with countless students of nearly all ages, from as young as 7 to as old as 18. I am 23 years old and just completed my Bachelor's Degree in Mathematics at Rowan University, where I graduated Summa Cum Laude with a 3.96 GPA. I believe my relative youth is not a detriment, but rather a benefit to my students who would often rather learn from somebody who knows what they are going through.

I have a passion for helping students reach their acasemic goals. I am a very patient, caring and easy going. I beleive that the more patient you are with students, the better they will understand and not feel pressured and discouraged. I have discovered through my experiences that students learn better through experience and on a one-on-one basis. While attending The Richard Stockton College of NJ, I was an active member of the Accounting and Finance Society where I utilized my technological and analytical aptitude to create financial statements and perform cash and capital budgets. Then, in the summer of 2009, I was hired as a project management intern at NFL Films’ selective internship program where I further extended my executive and analytical qualities. I was able to get a realistic experience financially managing a broadcast sports corporation. Furthermore, I was an academic Math

I believe in talking through problems using visual ideas and simplified concepts. I prefer teaching with graphics and concepts, and then relating them to formulas and equations. While I expect hard work from my students, I also have the patience to help them understand at their own pace. I am a currently a working civil engineer specializing in bridge design (steel and concrete structures). I received scores of 760 in Math on both the SAT I and II, and a score of 800 in Math on the GRE's. I have taken several high level calculus, engineering mathematics, and statistics classes at the University of Delaware, aside from receiving a 5 on both the Calculus and the Statistics AP Exams. I have tutored elementary students in the past, and was part of a 'teaching scientists' after school company briefly in college.

The University of Delaware has integrated me into the education field with a variety of experiences. I will earn my degree in May of 2011, becoming certified in Elementary Teacher Education and Middle School Social Studies. Over the past few years, I have strengthened in my ability to work with students of diverse needs and present effective instruction for the particular learner. This increases the student's motivation and desire to learn. From the opportunity to study abroad in Spain and Italy, I was exposed to different cultures broadening my understanding of human nature. Part of my course work has included developing unit plans, lesson portfolios, assessments and materials for students. As an educator, my understanding and approach to learning comes from placing myself in the perspective of the student. Therefore, student's opinion on coursework needs to be heard in order to create

I am a recent graduate of Rowan University, however have 3-4 years of tutoring experience. I started tutoring the spring of my sophomore year (organic and general chemistry) and continued tutoring through the university till half way through my junior year. Since then I have tutored directly for the chemistry department at Rowan University as a volunteer tutor. Even after my graduation I have continued to volunteer my services to the University. Over the past 4 years of tutoring, I have tutored in General Chemistry, Advanced Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Quantitative Analysis, Biochemistry, and Instrumental Methods. Though not as proficient, I have tutored algebra, calculus 1, and some engineering/material science classes as well. I tried to help the students to the best of my ability and in a way conducive to learning. At a major university, biology and engineering students, let alone c

As an Ivy League graduate, I am motivated to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I have earned my bachelor's degree in Biology and Master's degree in Bioethics from an Ivy League Medical School. I hope to continue my education with a PhD in the next few years. My background and experience have trained me to explain difficult concepts very easily to students of all ages. Throughout college, I have tutored in English, Writing, Science, Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Government. I love teaching! Nothing makes me happier than teaching a student a difficult problem. I am extremely patient, easy going, considerate and honest. My goal is to provide the best education at the adequate pace for the student. I love reinforcing concepts so that my students are able to conceptually understand what they are learning. I also relate problems with one another so that the student can un

I like to first show a basic example of the problem, then show how the problem can be solved. I will then show another example that is a little more involved. After this, I let the person being mentored try solving a similar problem. I implemented and maintained custom code for a number of clients, and I performd lead programmer functions and mentor others. Every few months I conducted "lunch and learns" for programmers and analysts. During these sessions I would describe what code was doing in a particular module. This would help them with their implementations.

My forte is adapting to the individual student. I have an inate ability to deciper the way each student's mind absorbs knowledge and I am flexible enough in my methodology to adjust to the necessary path. Although my approach is always conctructivist, my teaching methods vary from child to child. I was raised in the urban decay of the oldest neighboorhood in the country,yet private-school educated. I feel this blend adds to my overall mentoring ability. I received my first tutoring credential in the early 1970's specializing in prep-school placement tests, college-board prep etc. While attending Grad-School (Temple University) in the mid-70's; I worked as a substitute teacher in the Arch-Diocese of Phila. on a high-school level, primarily instructing History. At seventeen I completed the Evelyn Wood speed reading course, not that that is directly relevant to my teaching style. During t

I student taught 7th grade mathematics in William Rohrer Middle School in Westmont, NJ. They have has a very sociable community. They believe that interaction between the students and the teacher is the most important factor to how a student learns. That is why, my goal was to create activities that support collaborative learning and that will engage students with one another as well as with the content. Willing to become a teacher I became a "Blue Star" summer camp counselor in Mays Landing, NJ in June of 2010. Over the course of eight weeks I was able to enhance the campers experience at Camp Blue Star, while taking responsibility for their health and well being and create learning activities for elementary school children. My Rowan learning experience has allowed me to work with students from a variety of backgrounds and has exposed me to many different learning communities. I am very

I possess both a MS and BS in electrical engineering. I received my BS degree from Rowan University in New Jersey and my MS from the University of Southern California. I have taken numerous classes in mathematics which include Single Variable Calculus, Multi-Variable Calculus, Differential Equations, Complex Variables, Real Analysis, Linear Algebra, Probability, and Random Processes. In addition, the focus of my graduate coursework was in the areas of signal processing and communications which use the theory from these math courses. After graduating from undergraduate school I worked for a year and a half as a substitute teacher for mostly upper division high school classes in the math and sciences. When explaining concepts to students in classes that I sub-taught I felt the best approach was to talk to individual students and use a whiteboard to clearly explain the concepts. I usua

Since my years as an undergraduate student, one of my passions has always been giving back to the community through tutoring and mentoring. Over the past eleven years, I have tutored countless times, particularly in research paper and essay writing (in various disciplines), literature, and even mathematics. I am currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Education and seek to continue giving back in this way! As an Education Director at a Boys & Girls Club, I taught in the non-traditional sense, through after school literature-enhancing programming of various kinds. I instructed K-12 students, and even parents and staff, on many different levels of achievement and ability, so I am very acquainted with diverse populations and accomodating their educational needs through creative tools and approaches.
