More About This Tutor...

My love of teaching comes from a lifelong love of learning. After graduating with a 4.0 from Vestavia Hills High School in Birmingham, AL, I went to Auburn University to pursue an Industrial and Systems Engineering degree. After a few years of working as an Engineer with Alabama Power Company, I studied to earn my Masters of Business Administration from the University of Alabama, Birmingham.I believe that having a broad knowledge of all subjects is very important. A few years ago, I decided to leave my corporate job and stay at home to raise my child. I had always loved teaching, so I began to work on my teaching degree online. I am currently in school to go back and teach high school math. I am a bit of a math nerd but LOVE to read, so I enjoy English as well. I specialize in teaching math and English at all levels. I also can teach test preparation, study skills and various computer ... read more

Teaching has been a desire of mine since I taught math at a local high school for two years. I am a firm believer in giving accurate, detailed information and being prepared for any questions that someone may have. I don't expect everyone to learn at the same pace, and I make sure that I provide various methods to solving certain problems. I believe that anything is possible, even learning Math.
I have a passion for learning as well as sharing my knowledge with others. I obtained a BA in Mathematics and am currently working on MAT in Mathematics. While in college I was part of a tutoring/mentoring program and helped my peers with math. I also had an opportunity to prepare high school students for the Alabama Grad Exam during a summer session with the Upward Bound Program. I currently help children in my community with any problems they may face in mathematics.

I have a BA and MS degree in Psychology, which required me to gain an advanced understanding of statistics and mathematics. As a substitute teacher for Shelby County, I frequently substituted for high school math teachers and assisted students in understanding their algebra assignments. I also have 3 years experience working as an income tax preparer. Lastly, I have knowledge of various software packages on both Apple and PC computer systems.
I love to see the light-bulb go on inside as children grasp material they are struggling with. At first, I teach and watch to see their facial expressions and comprehension in order to figure out what they are struggling with. Then, I approach the topic from a different way, tailored to their specific struggles. I continue to reassess their comprehension and approach the topic from different angles until I break through. Take algebra, for exam ... read more

I began tutoring when I was a Jr. in high school. I tutored a variety of subjects for grades 5 through 8 during my last two years of high school. During my freshman year of college I tutored a classmate in English Composition I. More recently I tutored a college freshman in Algebra and some of my peers for continuing education credits in Algebra. I have a total of 3 years tutoring experience and an additional 2 years experience from home schooling my daughter for 2nd and 3rd grade.
I try to find out the learning style of the person I am teaching and use that as my primary teaching style. Some people learn better by hearing, some by reading or seeing and some by doing. I think focusing on the style that the person prefers to learn and then backing it up with the other styles to reinforce what they have learned is the best way for the student to retain the information. I think ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I truly enjoy teaching math and enjoy watching the 'click' when a student begins to understand the concepts. I believe many students have been erroneously convinced that "they don't get math" or that math is too hard. I believe in not just working through the problems at hand but in trying to help each student gain a better understanding of the thinking process involved in solving problems. Although proficiency comes through practice, there is more to math than just rote repetition.
I began tutoring students in 1984 while working in the math lab as an undergraduate student at the University of Southern Mississippi. After completing my Bachelor of Science degree in mathematics with a general science minor, I had the opportunity to teach college algebra as a graduate teaching assistant. I have been tutoring/teaching mathematics and some sciences ever since. I have experience tu ... read more

I enjoy working, teaching, and mentoring children. I have learned to adjust to the different learning styles of children, which makes it easier for the child to feel more comfortable with learning. In order to work with children there has to be a great amount of patience and concern. I have learned patience through working with children from all walks of life and I have come to appreciate each child's story. I belive that reaching out to those in need will not only help someone else to meet their full potential but for the teacher also. I believe in making a difference in other's life because others have helped shaped me into who I am today.
As a recent graduate, I have learned the importance of education. I have earned a Bachelor of Science with a major in Biology and minor in Chemistry. Not only do I contain a strong understanding in those subjects but took several classes in oth ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I break down subjects to the most basic level and build from there. This is the way all of my football coaches did things each year, they taught football stance at the beginning of August no matter the player's experience. Some students find this condescending but it usually progresses fast enough to reach their skill level without offending. I have always found that starting at the bottom prevents misunderstanding as you build toward the top. I enjoy teaching because it helps to sharpen my skills and also enjoy watching other students perform well. There is no greater reward than watching the light come on in a pupil's mind.

A Little Bit About Me...

Few things bring me more personal joy than helping others become better learners and seeing them smile when they overcome their struggles. I never use a one-size-fits-all approach to tutoring, because each and every individual's natural ability and learning environment are unique. Regardless of circumstances, I'm always patient, easy-going, and respectful with students and their families. Whenever possible, I try to incorporate examples that correlate with the interests they already have, to show them how important and practical their studies will be once they finish their schooling. Without telling them answers directly, I lead students down the right path so they can discover for themselves.
I've always been a highly focused and disciplined individual in regards to academics; ever since high school I've taken a serious liking to chemistry and math, not only because of their impor ... read more

As a McGill University graduate, I was very driven to excel in my science based courses. I have earned a Bachelor's degree in Mathematics and Chemistry which has enabled me to gain a thorough understanding in many areas of math and science. For the past few years I have enjoyed spending my time tutoring youth and young adults in basic science, mathematics and in the French language, and teaching adults the English language. For a few years I have also had the opportunity to tutor young children in French and music.
I love teaching and working with children of all ages and abilities. I'm a firm believer in creative learning through fun and interesting activities. I am also a firm believer that everyone learns at different paces and through different means: using visual, auditory, and tactile learning to find what works best. I am patient and understanding and strive to find th ... read more

I have a Ph. D. in Mathematics Education with 18 years experience in teaching mathematics in different levels: high school, college as well as in graduate school. I have taught different mathematics subjects (Algebra, Geometry-plane, solid, and analytic-, Number Theory, and Statistics, among others) to undergraduate BS Mathematics students. I was also the teacher and coordinator in the practice teaching (Practicum) of our graduating students. I also taught and advised graduate students in mathematics education and sit in the defense panel as a member of the examining committee for master’s and Ph. D. candidates.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a premedical student, my main focus during college was on biology, chemistry, physics, and math. Through extensive lab work, I have also learned how to write scholarly reports. During my undergraduate years, I have taught inorganic and organic chemistry to sophomore and junior undergraduate students for 4 months. Also, I have taught elementary and middle school students about labs in Birmingham's McWane Center. Currently, I work for Examkrackers, which is a company that focuses on the MCAT exam. I prepare and teach lectures to students who hope to get into medical school. Even though I focus mainly on math and science, I have experience with different age groups and am comfortable teaching students above the age of 5.
I enjoy teaching and the think that every child has the ability to learn anything they want. Through my personal experience, I realize that some people have a hard ... read more

I have tutored students in math and science (mainly math) for over 13 years. I have helped students in various levels of mathematics - basic math, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and pre-calculus. After working with me on a consistent basis (2/3 days/week) many of the students have received honors in their math courses, including "Most Improved" and "Highest Average". I am also proud to say that a couple of students have actually decided to pursue careers that require a good understanding of math - i.e. engineering, architecture.
I enjoy working with students of all ages, although most of my experience has been with middle school age and older. I use a couple of different techniques to help students understand math, including using visual aides, problem solving techniques, role reversal (where they explain a lesson to me), blackboard/whiteboard work, and games. I believe it's ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I completed all course work for a masters of physics at University of Alabama at Birmingham, only lacking the thesis. G.P.A. at the end of the course work was 3.65. Along the way, as I finished the graduate course work (and in order to pay the rent) I did ad-hoc tutoring with a number of undergrad students along with a more formal semester of 'coaching' a class of undergrads in their regular physics class. This entailed going over problems with them, showing them how to correctly formulate solutions. On top of this, I worked, formally, as a graduate teaching assistant for 2 years, and I taught in the Birmingham public schools (high school level) as a physics teacher. All told, quite a lot of teaching involved with all levels of students.
My teaching style is easy to describe; I consider myself a 'coach' and as such I don't (and wont) give the students the answer to a particula ... read more
