A Little Bit About Me...

I have a lot of experience in teaching and tutoring. I have tutored for about 10 years now, starting with my fellow classmates while still in school and now tutoring one-on-one, mostly for elementary-aged children. I also teach - I conduct a teenage choir, taught at a Ukrainian school for 7 years (grammar, writing, reading, vocabulary), and give individual piano lessons. I've received my Bachelor's in Elementary Education and have had some experience teaching all grades K-5. I am currently working on my Master's as a Teacher Leader, with an endorsement in ESL.

Learning can be fun...if done the right way

I lived my whole life in Damascus, Syria. Coming to the States every summer was very interesting for me, having the best of both worlds, my mother being from Kentucky, and my father syrian. Throughout my life, i never understood the value of being bilingual. Now i am very grateful for my upbringing and the education i was given. Arabic is a hard yet beautiful language, and one that will be spoken by all soon. I studied in the International school of Choueifat for 10 years, and for my senior year in high school, moved to a boarding school in Brummana,Lebanon. Sadly Arabic was not taught in that school, and thats when i came to appreciation with the language we all take for granted.
Fun teaching methods. Reading simple books and signs for starters. Songs and learning the lyrics is a good and effective way to learn a new language

Experienced Tutor with Expertise in Math and Social Science

I have been tutoring students of all ages since I was in high school. I began by tutoring my own peers in math and social studies. I would also tutor children from 1st grade on up in all subjects. Once in college, I tutored college students and younger in many fields, primarily mathematics courses. My specialty quickly became preparation for standardized tests as well as calculus because I have a unique ability to discover how each student learns and tailor the lessons to their needs. I can quickly find where the knowledge gaps exist for each student and fill in those gaps, in order to create a complete understanding of the topic, not just get them to memorize answers.
My teaching style varies for each student, I try to tailor the work to how the student learns.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and helping students to grasp the basic understanding behind physics and math. Since physics and math can build on itself, it is important you understand the basics before you can proceed to advanced concepts. I believe students learn by different styles whether it be visually, audibly, written, or hands on. It's important to apply this style early. I am a very patient person. I will not give answers and do the work for the student. Rather I help guide and lead students to answer, that way they learn the technique and apply their own critical thinking and problem solving skills. I will provide constructive criticism and make a full effort to see all students succeed and build confidence in the areas of physics and math.
As a graduate of Eastern Kentucky University I have dedicated a lot of my time and effort to learning concepts of physics. I have earned a bachelor ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Most of my teaching experience has been in classrooms with students from the toddler stage through 6th grade. My favorite areas to teach are phonics, reading, and elementary math. However, in the passed five years I have tutored pre-school age through adults in many areas, and homeschooled all areas in elementary and middle school. I also taught English as a second language. I love guiding a student through some difficult or misunderstood content and getting the "ahha!" of understanding at the end.
My experience has taught me that all children can learn, but often in different ways. Finding the mode of learning for each student is the key. I try to find different ways to present the information until the child understands. It is also important to review and practice in order to reach the learning goal. I am a patient teacher and respectful of each student.

My philosophy of teaching has evolved from many years of teaching and administrative experience. As I reflect on my beliefs regarding teaching and learning, I find that my mission as an educator is threefold: • to promote positive learning; • to spark learner enthusiasm for learning; • and to provide a strong foundation for lifelong learning. To accomplish this, I enjoy applying a wide variety of strategies based on essential educational principles encompassing a variety of learning styles, learning theory, diversity issues, instructional planning and assessment.
I have over 25 years experience in education and have taught middle school through college mathematics. I enjoy helping students learn mathematics as well as other subjects. In math I prefer to assist with basic math through pre-calculus. I also enjoy history and economics and assisting with those subjects as well. I ... read more

Taught science and history in private schools; managed a private piano studio in Virginia and Kentucky. I've been a non profit director for many years. Additionally I've served as a church organist in three states, including Kentucky, Virginia and texas.
Teachers must find methods of reaching the minds of students. I am very much an encourager of natural talents and inclinations along the way to skilled demonstration of those talents and inclinations. I set a high standard and encourage students to exceed my expectations. Usually they do.

I graduated from Ohio State with a Bachelor's in Mechanical Engineering. During my High School career, I tutored many of my friends in Trignometry, Physics and Calculus. During my college years, I had a broad exposure to Math and Science. I volunteered at the Chemistry and Math lab few hours a week to help students with basic college level chemistry and math courses.
I believe there is a lock to everyone's key. In order to be successful tutor, you have to understand what the student needs and then deliver exactly that at the right time and in the right amount. My goal is provide the best tutoring experience for my students, help them achieve their goals and targets in School so they can feel great about themselves. I remember the teachers who the biggest impact on me and what I remember the most about them is their willingness to listem to me, work with my learning style and ... read more
