More About This Tutor...

I take a non-judgmental approach, and start where the student is at. Putting a client at ease and forming a trusting connection with the tutor, is vital to the ultimate success of tutoring, (as well as competency in the subject matter.)
Coming from a family of academicians, and a father who has a doctorate in education, I learned to love learning at an early age and have always valued education and try to instill that in others. I am proficient in many areas and work well with all people from all walks of life, at varying levels. My experience comes from being in a helping profession, in which I assisted hundreds of people live up to and achieve their highest potential. Having three children of my own with varying learning styles, as w well as working with other children and adults, enhanced my my ability to understand individuals and how they learn.

The process is just as important as the product. If a student can come up with the correct answer, but he or she has no idea how or why it is correct or how they got it, I feel like their learning is incomplete. Especially in Math, but also in many other subjects, concepts build upon each other. For this reason, I like to explain not just *how* to get there, but also *why* we got that answer; then students have a firmer foundation for the trickier concepts. I love seeing the lightbulb "go on," when kids finally "get it."
I have been a teacher for 7 years. I have taught in a small-town private, Christian two-room schoolhouse (K-8); I currently substitute teach for OPS, and have been to all but one school in the district. I have also tutored on and off over the years, both individually and in small groups, both privately and through school district or companies. I enjoy working with ... read more

Experienced tutor specializing in science and mathematics

I have experience working with students who are advanced and seeking supplementary tutoring as well as with students who are having difficulty with a subject. I have tutored mathematics as well as chemistry, biology, physics, and other subjects. I have tutored students from a range of ages and I worked with my first student over four years ago while I was in college.
I try to work with students to find connections between different aspects of the material that we're working on as well as to find connections to other subjects. I find that by relating specific topics to broader perspectives on a subject as well as related subjects, the student can gain a greater appreciation for the coherence and importance of a particular subject area.

...Give yourself an edge…

My work through Lincoln Public Schools prepared me to be the best private tutor I can be. Working with students one-on-one in almost every grade level taught me how to assist each unique individual in a way that suits them best. Tailoring my teaching style to fit the needs of each of my students is vital as we all have different ways of learning. Many students began working with me with no hope and a failing grade and after some time, they had newly found confidence in themselves and their F had transformed into an A. Math and helping others succeed have always been passions of mine, so the fact that I get to do the two at the same time brings so much joy to my life.

My comments on tutoring Study Skills : Homework and study skills are one of my strength areas. I can help you get the most out of your textbook resources, knowing when to ask the teacher for extra help, searching for online help effectively, creating study materials such as note cards, and generally setting up a study routine that works for you.

My career path has winded around quite a bit but always focuses on computer science and math education. My education experience has included tutoring freelance, tutoring on USD's payroll, leading group study sessions, providing supplemental instruction for university coursework, leading workshops at a computer camp, writing workshops for that camp, and ultimately teaching math full time in a high school. My computer science field experience includes several part-time jobs, freelance web development, personal projects, an internship with NASA, and ultimately working full time as a Web developer.
I prefer personal and small group teaching, but I can also do online tutoring with Webex. I like to get to know my students and their goals. I can help students set those goals, make plans, and achieve. I have lots of experience creating curriculum materials and lessons, and I try to find a ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have been tutoring and teaching since my Sophomore year in high school. At that time I was teaching English as a second language to a few foreigners who were visiting my school. Since that time, I've gone on to teach elementary level through high school children/teens in various subjects with the boys and girls clubs of america.
I make sure that when I teach, I prep each lesson for that individual person. No one learning plan can teach every single person, so I hand-tailor things for each student.

The study of language has played a major role in my life since I was young, when I pieced together bits of Spanish from the native speakers in my extended family, and then through high school where I studied Spanish more intensely. In college, I turned my focus to Classics. Study of Latin and Greek at the University has strongly reinforced my understanding of not only grammar but literature, philosophy, and culture. I have been tutoring Latin for two years, with 8 years of experience tutoring language and teaching guitar lessons. I have also completed UNL's NCAA training program for tutoring Student Athletes, certifying in Scientific Greek and Latin. Next year, I will begin the Classics PhD program at University of Wisconsin.
Latin is notorious in the modern world for being considered dry and irrelevant, but I like to take a more modern approach, influenced by my study of Spanish. ... read more
