I adapt my pedagogy to the needs of various students. 1. I have worked in the Quantitative Reasoning Center (Math Lab) of Birmingham-Southern College for the past three years, and have helped hundreds of students every night with Pre-calculus, Calculus I/II/III, Linear Algebra, Differential Equations and other higher level math classes. 2. I worked as a teaching assistant in Intro to Mathematical Modeling (Fall 2009), Calculus I (Spring 2011), Intro to Topology (Spring 2011), and Introduction to Complex Analysis (Fall 2011).

I recently graduated from the Alabama School of Mathematics and Science, I have a niche of working with kids and sharing knowledge that I have been taught through the years. You will learn with me, I take the time with each student and will guarantee higher scores on standardized tests and on their in class performance. Hands on, will bring independent work that is required to be done by the student if they hope to succeed with my methods. If the student follows my methods they will succeed.

I love to learn. It has always come easily for me. Throughout my schooling, I realized I was able to understand certain concepts very quickly & in easier ways than taught by the teacher. I found myself helping others understand the subject matter like me. I am patient, helping students to work through many different angles of solutions until something works. Because everyone learns differently, I am creative & adaptive to the student I am working with. I am also very personable while maintaining professionalism & respect. My main objectives are helping the student obtain a true understanding of the subject matter, improving the student's academic performance, & promoting a healthy appetite for learning & the will to succeed. As a recent graduate from the University of Alabama, I have possessed a passion for learning in hopes to become a doctor. I have earned a BS in Biology and a MS in H

I love helping people achieve their goals. I try to find things that the kids enjoy and incorporate those things into my teaching style. I give the students plenty of time to figure out the answer and do not get frustrated with them if it takes them awhile. When the students get a correct answer, I praise them and try to boost their confidence. As a recent college graduate, I understand the time and commitment it takes to achieve success in school. I earned a bachelor degree in chemistry with a minor in liberal arts. As a member of the chemistry honor society, I tutored students in chemistry during my college career.

I graduated from Stillman College with a BS in Biology. In addition, I was a Howard Hughes Medical Research Intern where I gained hands-on experience in a research laboratory that focused on Cardiovascular diseases. After graduating from college, I started my career in Education by teaching science courses at Green County High School. I love helping others learn about science. During my two years teaching, I tutored many of my students after school. Currently, I am gaining my Master's in Secondary Biology Education at the University of West Alabama. I understand that learning should be student-centered and not teacher-centered. I am aware that learning is centered around the student, and I take the opportunity to understand that student's learning style. Once I am aware of that student's learning style, then I can use appropriate teaching methods to introduce materials. I am a caring, p

1) I like to help the student define our goal: "What is it we are trying to achieve?" 2) "How do we get there?" Here I am open to suggestions from the student as to how we achieve that goal. This gives me clues to his/her learning style. 3) I try to help the student break down each problem or project into small, managable steps. If practicable, I prefer the use of physical objects or sketches to visually drive home geometric concepts, or use them as examples of "engineering problems" met and conquered by someone before them. I am very patient and think each child is gifted in unique ways by our Creator. And seeing a child learn, to see things "click" is one of the greatest experiences in life. That is my goal and passion. After High School, I taught Sunday School at the small church I attended. I was co-teacher with an older gentleman, and the students were 12-15 years old. When

I have many different teaching styles. I judge how the student learns and I adjust my teaching style to match the students learning abilities. This allows me the flexibility to help all kinds of students. I have tutored numerous students in the following subjects Chemistry, Physics, Algebra, Trig, Geometry, Calculus and Biology. I had 1 student who needed to pass a calculus test to recieve his MBA. I taught him a complete semester of calculus in 1 month.

Education has always been a very important part of my life. After earning my BS in Accounting I have continued my education in pursuit of my CPA. During my college career, I tutored student athletes in accounting, finance, and mathematics. I truly enjoy teaching and working with children. Every individual learns differently and I feel the key to teaching children is determining that learning style. Through the correct teaching style, encouragement, and patience, each child can excel in any given area. It is very rewarding to watch them succeed.

I do not have a particular teaching style because I don't believe that a single method works for everyone. Therefore, I operate from an Occam's Razor perspective -- whatever is the simplest solution is the best. I believe I am very empathetic and perceptive, which would enable me to determine what works best for each student. Admittedly, I have no direct (structured) teaching experience. However, I have nearly five years of experience in the journalism field, and during that time I've mentored a number of fledgling college and high school journalists. And while journalism and political science are my two specialties -- given that I have degrees in both -- I also have a fair amount of expertise in the tangential fields of English and History.

As a recent college graduate, I understand the high expectations and the stress that it can cause a college student, especially coming from a school where most professors expected students to teach themselves concepts. I have earned my BS in Mechanical Engineering which has enabled me to gain understanding in math and science. I have experience in tutoring students in mathematics, physics 1 and thermodynamics. I love teaching because of the feeling of helping someone who is truly struggling in class! I believe that everyone can learn, but some teachers styles don't match up with the students learning style. I am a very patient and considerate person. I am a firm believer that many students can't learn strictly through theory and need to be walked through example problems. Walking through problems gives them a better visualization of what they are trying to solve.
