I started tutoring thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and statics in college. My BS in mechanical engineering has required me to get a firm understanding of calculus and physics - two traditionally very difficult subjects. I have an ability to communicate the complex theories in everyday language that makes me a very effective tutor. It is great when someone starts to understand the theory of their subject and then continue to more complicated things. The key to tutoring is to understand the frustration and embarrassment someone feels when they do not understand something and overcome this with a friendly, straight-forward approach.

Although each child has his or her own style of learning, I believe in bringing out their highest potential by feeding them with the kind of construcive criticism and positive reinforcement that motivates every young mind. I am patient, respectful and warm. My hope as a tutor is to help students learn more easily by providing them with essential tools they will be able to use for the rest of their lives. In my 20 + years as a student, I have become convinced that a great teacher is essential to bolstering confidence, passion and motivation to learn. I intend to inspire all three. Only four years after immigrating from Belgium to the US, self motivated success and ambition allowed me to graduate Valedictorian of my high school class. I was offered a full ride scholarship to UC Berkeley, the #1 public university in the nation. I was pleased with my accomplishments and proceeded to keep fol

I discovered my passion for instructing, tutoring, and working with youth during my experience as a substitute teacher. I understand that every student has their own unique way of learning, and I believe in a patient approach that will help a student build confidence in the subject matter, and develop good study habits. I think the greatest legacy a person can leave in life is a good impression on younger generations, and therefore I take each teaching opportunity seriously. I graduated from the University of Nevada, Reno in May of 2009 with a Bachelor's of Science in Geography, an interdisciplinary field which enabled me to cover a broad area of subject matter throughout my studies. From studying abroad in Italy, and working abroad in Ecuador, I have a knowledge of Spanish and Italian. For the 2009-2010 school year, I was a substitute teacher in the Elko County School District, and gain

From the moment I entered high school, I had a thirst for knowledge. Even though I was already attending the top private school in Atlanta, I wanted to ensure the maximum level of achievement. Therefore, I applied to the top boarding school in the country, Phillips Exeter Academy, and was granted admission! After high school, I attended the independant ivy, Wesleyan University, where my learning continued, not only in the classroom, but also outside of the classroom. I became a mentor and a tutor during my junior year. I am pleased to say that I am still on the journey of achieving a stellar eduaction, but more importantly, I am utilizing and enjoying my skills in sharing knowledge with others. My tutoring has progressed and remained a large part on my life. I would like to continue on this path to educate the world! As a teacher, I like to inspire the student to be the best that they ca

My first belief is that you have to make a student believe in themselve. You do this by letting them know that the system has failed them, but together we can bridge the gap of what you need now to get your grades caught up and work backwards to learn what you have missed. I driven to find innovative ways to make them learn, like using coins and other objects like liquid containers. Making jokes about historical events that are so dumb they have to remember. I believe we can change the world a couple people at a time. I am a enthusiastic 21 year old in a 51 year old body. I am able to reach students of all ages and to find out what they require to learn. I am well rounded in most subjects, I play several instuments and sing. I am an excellent mechanic, plumber, household electrician, and carpenter.

Every child is different, and as a tutor, you have to be able to adapt using positive reinforcement, patience, and lots of concentration. At the same time, developing and understanding a relationship filled with common sense and a kind warming environment that makes our students comfortable with learning something that they may be having complications. You become more of a role model and not just a tutor. If a kid listens, learns, respects and wants to be around you then you know you have done a very good job. Since 1998, I've been volunteering and working with kids of all ages as well as physical/mental complications. I've taught and tutored in many areas that include Spanish, English, math, science, and sports. I love working with people of all ages especially with children. I have great references and lots of experience. I'm young, enthusiastic, organized, and patient. .

Throughout college, I completed two field experiences followed by my student teaching experience. In between my field experiences, I substitute taught in three different school districts. These personal accounts allowed me to examine the similarities and differences within grade levels, and to recognize the various strategies used to reach all learners in both suburban and urban settings. Being out in the field also enabled me to further enhance my ability to communicate well with students, parents and faculty. My studies abroad in Seville, Spain are also an essential supplement to my educational training and background. Being immersed in a foreign language and culture is an experience all its own. Last year I taught 3rd grade at Salida del Sol Elementary in Yuma, AZ. Many of the students that I taught were English Language Learners. I felt that I could relate to those studen

I come from a family of seven children, four of them younger than me, and three of them adopted from the Philippines. Growing up in this setting has allowed me to become patient, tolerant, understanding, and loving. I believe that each child is different and capable of great things if acknowledged in an enthusiastic and attentive manner. I believe in asking children guiding questions to lead them through difficult material without directly presenting an answer or lecturing. I believe in using my own creativity to come up with new methods of learning so that children respond to subjects they may not otherwise enjoy. I plan on making a career out of teaching as it is my passion and I yearn to make a difference in the learning experiences of young children. I recently graduated from the University of Colorado with a bachelor's degree in architecture which allowed me to be very understa
