I have been teaching in one capacity or another for most of my life. In recent years, my focus has been private tutoring in physics and mathematics, but I have taught students of all ages everything from horseback riding to martial arts. I consider myself a Renaissance woman of sorts, and like to take an interdisciplinary approach to my research. Currently, my research areas include Biophysics/Nonlinear Dynamics--using electrical circuits to model sensory cells in the ear, and Abstract Mathematics--studying the characters of matrix representations of finite groups. For more information about me, including my full CV, check out my website at courtneydevonfleming.com My approach to both physics and math is very concept oriented. I try to combat the 'shut up and calculate' approach that students often encounter in their schooling. Rather than expecting my students to quickly mem

I find out what exactly the student is lacking in the subject by asking a few basic questions on the topic and make a judgement of the student's understanding on the topic and then proceed forward. I normally explain the concepts in diagrams so that it makes it easier for the student to visualize the problem and give the student plenty of practice problems for him/her to work on to make their understanding better I have taught over 20 students during my undergraduate and graduate study. Most of the students that I have taught are engineering students who need help with the basic understanding of concepts and visualizing problems. The subjects that I normally teach are Chemical Engineering subjects, Engineering Physics, Chemistry and Basic Math classes. My wife teaches Computer Science, she possesses a Master's degree in Computer Science and has taught Java and C++ during her grad sc

I possess a deep understanding of the principles of Organic Chemistry and have 6 months experience of tutoring Organic Chemistry to undergraduates at the University of Colorado Boulder. As a straight-A student, learning has been my passion and for the last year and a half I have been culminating my tutoring skills at the University of Colorado Boulder. At CU Boulder, I have been working with the Herbst Academic Center to tutor student-athletes. During this time, I have gained over 6 months of experience tutoring Organic Chemistry I & II as well as Physics I & II. I also posses over 6 months of experience working with PhD candidates Caelyn Hirschman and Zane Colvin in Dr. Grabowski's Applied Biomechanics Lab at the CU Boulder. Hybrid/Blended

I am a portrait photographer based in Highlands Ranch, CO with a degree in Electrical Engineering from Texas A&M I worked as an electrical engineer for 5 years in the defense industry prior to fulfilling my dream to become a photographer. In 2009 I went back to school to pursue a degree in photography. I've enjoy working with others and teaching them. I am proficient in both math and science as well as the technical and artistic sides of photography.

If I could quit my day job and become a high school math teacher, that would be my dream come true. I truly enjoy tutoring. When I teach the kids, not only do I help them work through problems, but I also give them ideas of what will come, where they will need the current subject matter in future years, or even ideas that a particular topic is important (so they don't learn it just for the test). My electrical engineering degree was pretty much a math degree by default. In addition, I'm currently pursuing actuary certification. Actuaries are the statisticians in the insurance and finance world. I've been tutoring for 7 years, and have had many successes. One of my students earned a perfect 800 on the SAT math.

I spent a summer as a teaching assistant and tutor with the Johns Hopkins Center for Talented Youth. I was responsible for teaching and supervising the laboratory portion of the high school Chemistry advanced placement class. In the evenings, I was also responsible for the two hour study hall sessions held with the entire class. This involved re-lecturing some concepts and also answering questions with students one-on-one. Later, I spend a school year as an after-school teacher in an elementary school which involved working on homework for a half hour everyday with 46 different students. Each day was different in terms of who needed help with homework, and in what subject. The 46 students where spread out over 6 grades and all had six subjects each to learn. Working with them included everything from drilling multiplication tables with the third graders, doing long division with the fi

I understand that each person is different in learning styles. I also believe that as a teacher, I must adapt and be proficient in multiple teaching styles, in order to accomodate all different students. Also, based on my experience as a student, I value positive reinforcement more than anything in the learning process. I have found that focusing on a students strengths and encouraging them can quickly lead to them overcoming their weaknesses. During my experience at Brigham Young University, I was able to teach, tutor, and mentor other students in the Physics department. My responsiblities included assisting with homework and lab experiments. Not only was I required to understand and apply complex mathematics to help the students solve the problems, I was also expected learn effective teaching methods. These skills, along with my Bachelors Degree in Applied Physics, and a Minor in

I have had the fortunate experience of tutoring students throughout university, where I earned a BSc in Math and Physics, an MSc in Physics, and a PhD in Physics. This helped hone my abilities as a teacher and communicator as well as ensure that I know the material inside out (the old adage that the "teacher always learns the most" is really true). Additionally, I have ~7 years of experience in roles as teaching assistants in math, physics, and engineering, and I was privileged to have the opportunity to develop, coordinate, and teach my very own introductory physics course at the University of Toronto in 2007. I was flattered when my students chose me to receive an award for excellence in teaching undergraduate physics. In my tutorials, I try to follow three steps: 1) Identify the issue -- the student and I go over the challenging problems, 2) Demonstration: we do those problems as well

Some years ago a friend told me that volunteer help was really needed for the adult GED program in our local area. I decided to give up time for two hours a week. When I begin the program it was really sad to see someone struggling over simple arithmetic problems, I was glad to help then. I also get a feeling of accomplishment when students show understanding and that understanding is reflected by an increase in homework scores and test scores. I have earned two bachelor degrees, BA in Organic Chemistry and BA in Electronics. I have tutored students in mathematics, chemistry, electronics, basic computer programming and physics. I believe that if I can understand something, then everyone else can. I help students by convincing them that they can understand to build up confidence. Students and I work at what needs to be memorized such as formulas and basic concepts, learning to apply and

Everyone is different so the first lesson is always about finding the best way to teach that student. The three different ways that people learn are hearing, seeing, and doing but different combinations work better for different children. I believe that all children can meet their potential if they can be taught in an appropriate method. Children should be limited by their own preferences and not by a subject's "difficulty". By finding the proper method a tutor can and should mold their lessons for that method. I have tutored students in Geometry for half a year officially, and tutored students in physics unofficially for the past 5 years. Before that I worked in a boy scout camp for 6 years and I have always worked well with children. I have earned a BS in Physics which has given me an understanding of many areas of science and my minor in mathmatics has given me a great understanding o
