Pre-Algebra is one of my top subjects!

I've been a pharmacist for 21 years. During that time, I tutored several students in algebra, general chemistry and organic chemistry. I enjoy teaching and find the results very rewarding. I also tutor my children, on occasion, which is usually a learning experience for everyone involved! I prefer to tutor high school sciences, pre-algebra and college prep classes for general chemistry and organic chemistry.&

Pre-Algebra is one of my top subjects!

I am interested in going back to the basics in the teaching of mathematics due to the fact that during my years of working with students I have discovered that the majority of them abhor math because some do not know the times table verbatim which is one of the basics that will obstruct the learning and correct mechanics of solving mathematical problems. I am a really good remedial mathematics teacher.
I am a veteran Teacher of Mathematics; I have been affiliated with the Jackson Public Schools District approximately twenty (20) years or more, serving in various positions as a Limited Substitute Teacher in Mathematics (primarily), English and JROTC as well. My field of expertise is prealgebra, algebra I and Geometry. I am also proficient in the teaching of English and Preparatory Writing in which I taught on the college level as an instructor here locally. My 'love-affair' with ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My 20+ years of working have given me the opportunity to gain experience in the following industries: public accounting, non-profit education, telecommunications, legal and banking. Some of the skills that I have acquired include: general accounting, auditing and taxes, budgeting, financial analyses and financial modeling. I also have directed my church choir for the past 20 years.
Even though teaching is not my profession, I enjoy working with individuals and seeing them learn new concepts. I am easy going, calm and patient. My goal is to make learning enjoyable and create a desire to learn more. All students can learn if given the proper tools and environment.

A Little Bit About Me...

My experience started in my high school years helping my brother and sisters with homework while our mom was working. Presently I am employed at a day care center/ school, were everyday is spent engaged with the kids and their educational needs. I love interacting with the children at work so much so, that the idea of taking on tutoring sounds more so like a new hobby.
The child chooses the style. What I mean by this is that every child is different and every one of them learn differently. Teaching on a more personal level is how to aid the best results.

My comments on tutoring Pre-Algebra : As a computer programmer or systems analyst, I kept my math skills sharp through my entire career.

Math and algebra were my best subjects in high school and college. As a computer programmer, I would frequently have to solve a "word problem" before creating a program that implemented my solution. Some of my programs include a statistical analysis of traffic data, a calculation of yield to maturity of long term bonds, implementation of federal tax withholding for pension checks, a mortgage or loan program, and the creation of round robin pairing tables for chess.
I try to see what the student already knows and go from there. Of course it is important that a student get an assigned math problem correct, but it is also important that the student UNDERSTANDS why something works and how that can be applied to other problems when a tutor or teacher isn't present.

I want to teach students how to not only memorize the material but actually understand the material so they will be able to use that as building blocks forward in their education.

My teaching style totally depends on my student. Every one has a different learning style, and I try to be adaptable. I believe you must create a relaxed and and supportive atmosphere for the learner. Projecting a sense of confidence in the student goes a long way towards helping him/her achieve his/her educational goal. Lots of time the student has the skills but is not sure enough of himself/herself to proceed. I am just the prompter. I really enjoy sharing in the learning process and especially relish the moment when the student discovers his ability to learn and achieve.
Both of my parents were teachers so education is very important to me. My experience in teaching ranges from working with elementary children as a teacher's assistant to being an Adult Education Instructor. I worked with 3rd graders who were low in math and reading for about 3 years. My greatest challen ... read more
