easiest area to improve in, my specialty I do only what is necessary -- nothing less or more -- to help you succeed. Most students learn best by being guided rather than taught. The strategy for success on standardized tests is fairly general, but every student has particular strengths and weaknesses that must be factored into the preparation process. Hence, I take a very individually customized approach. I have been tutoring for the ACT and SAT for three years after having scored very well on my GRE and getting trained by an elite Test Prep company in Southern California. Currently I'm a professor of theology, ethics and philosophy at Incarnate Word University in San Antonio, TX. I've continued to tutor because I find the work both meaningful and impactful.

I'm a PhD Candidate at Claremont Graduate University in philosophy and a professor of ethics at the University of the Incarnate Word. I was trained by and worked for an elite Test Prep company in Southern California for two years before moving back to Texas. My specialty is SAT Math, but I am fully proficient in both Reading and Writing as well.

Since attending college, I have been infatuated with teaching. To learn the best strategies for teaching chemistry to students, I took a course entitled, “Instructional Techniques in Chemistry,” and served as the sole laboratory instructor for two sections of general chemistry during my undergraduate studies. I have taught non-science major undergraduates, continuing education high school teachers, undergraduate chemistry majors, and graduate students in biochemistry and cell biology. I also served as a discussion leader for two years in general chemistry, which required me to hold weekly sessions that allowed students to ask questions pertaining to chemistry. I use a wide variety of approaches to teach since different students grasp concepts in differ ways. This variety has helped me to adapt as the skill levels and backgrounds of my students changed. Some of the methods I have u

I firmly believe that you learn best when you're having fun. Once a topic fascinates you, your mind automatically engages more, which helps you remember better. So I work to draw students in by keeping things interesting, using fun examples, humor, and applying things to areas they will actually care about. I want to make you actually WANT to learn. I have a very adaptable teaching style. If one explanation isn't helpful, I'll try to approach from a different perspective, until we get something that works. I also prefer to encourage children to figure things out themselves, using only a light hand to guide them in the right direction. It builds problem-solving skills, gives you a sense of achievement, and keeps you actively involved. I've always had a love of learning, and have naturally slipped into an informal tutor role with friends. During high school I took several AP tests and a

I can adjust to most settings. Right now I have a client back home that I work with on a once a month basis. I was used to high school and middle school students but have been working with their children who are in elementary grade levels. As such, they have vaulted to the top of their classes in math. I have been a tutor for the past five years. I have experience working with students with different levels of comprehension, i.e. those struggling to graduate and coaching those involved in UIL academics. I was an accomplished UIL competitor as well as a coach of the number sense/math/science teams at the previous school where I was employed. My strengths lie in mathematics (Calculus for example) as well as physics.

I graduated from Stephen F. Austin State University in May 2009 with a Bachelor of Science in Interdisciplinary Studies degree. I am a certified teacher that specializes in Mathematics. While in school I tutored for the athletic department for four years in many subjects of mathematics. I also completed 2 internships and a semester of student teaching in 3 different middle schools. I love tutoring mathematics and find it rewarding when my students succeed and learn to love math as I do. I am patient and understanding and can easily adapt to each student's different and unique learning styles. I am an exceptional listener and communicator and I never give up on any student. Mathematics is arguably the hardest subject for students to grasp, and I try to make my lessons fun and enjoyable.

I approach teaching as something that takes very much patience and willingness to listen to the students problems. I believe in letting the student self discover his or her ablitiies by steering them in the right direction. I act as a guide and help further explain the ideas that are trying to be learned. I believe in a combination of teaching methods including but not limted to books, the web, models, videos, an flash cards. By practicing a little every day the skills can become second nature. There comes a point when the information clicks and the child will be able to carry this method into other areas of life. As a graduate of sciences I have an in depth knowledge of the basic skills that are needed to continue a higher education. I have completed 140 hours in college that includes plenty of hours in biology, physics, math (thru calculus III) , and chemistry. I have also been tutorin

I enjoy working with children of all ages, but particularly excel with more mature students trying to tackle more difficult subject matter. One of my greatest strengths is helping people understand abstract, technical material by simplifying the concepts and using analogies that the student can relate to. Often times we create a barrier because something seems like it should be hard. I make it my goal to break through that barrier by reducing the subject matter to ideas to which the student can relate. There is nothing quite like witnessing an “A-ha!” moment as someone conquers a fearful concept. I have always had an interest in math and science, and I got my start tutoring in high school by helping fellow classmates and friends in these subjects. I went on to earn my BS in Mechanical Engineering from U.T. Austin. I have also spent much of my life in the world of music and began te

Each larger question can subsequently be broken down into a set of smaller questions. These smaller questions are the building blocks of knowledge a student will acquire in classes and it is the ability to put them all together in a coherent manner that allows them to solve the problems at hand. I am a firm believer in asking leading questions of students that may not directly pertain to the question being asked on an assignment, but will get them thinking in the correct manner such that the real question will be easy. I use a lot of connection to the real world and a lot of analogy such that the students can get a handle on the subject matter and see parallels to every day life. As an undergraduate student at the University of Michigan I studied chemistry, biochemistry, and mathematics as part of a triple major. I felt my breadth of technical fields was important because it would al

As a graduating senior in Microbiology My comprehensive coursework in the hard sciences, including Biology and Chemistry, provides me with substantial knowledge in several domains. I began my work as a college tutor in 2007 and immediately found fulfillment in helping students to meet their academic goals. By the end of my time with the tutoring center, I was designated a CRLA Level 3 certified tutor. In addition to my tutoring experience, I also worked as a student teacher, teaching math to two classes of seventh graders. I learned necessary skills in classroom management and how to create lessons that are flexible enough for students on different levels of knowledge and comprehension. I focus on showing students why a correct answer is correct and guide them with questions so that they can cultivate the correct answer on their own. I learned the importance of building rapport and tailo
