Logic Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Hume, CA

Symbolic Logic I prefer teaching/tutoring in a way that I actually draw the answer out of the student, whether immediate or prolonged. Another method I frequently employ is actually having the student "teach" step by step the process in solving any particular question, in which I have received quite a bit of positive feedback on. If I do come across a question either I don't understand or can not answer at that time, I do not hesitate to seek assistance, thus showing that it doesn't have to be embarrassing to look to another for help. Hi! My name is Andrew Hoover and I started tutoring Mathematics/Science during my sophomore year in High School. Since then, I have continued to help others within my classes up until I reached community college. It was in 2008 that I became a certified tutor for Fresno City College, where I have been ever since. I tutor a wide range of subjects, from al

Not only have I tutored my nieces and nephews throughout their K-12 and even into college, I have a background in copy editing, I have been in a few minor publications, I am a competent mathematician, and I have a deep fascination and interest in science. My education is in psychology, philosophy, and English Writing, and I have a broad understanding of social/political theories, biology, math and algebra, and earth science. I am also highly knowledgeable of many books that are commonly assigned for high school readings. To use class material as a core of what is being taught, but also adding extra information when relevant to understanding the material, offering tips and advice, and a sharp eye for finding mistakes and the tact to offer constructive criticism to help overcome and prevent future mistakes.

My teaching style is perhaps not as Socratic as I would prefer. I first elucidate the principles being considered, and then use a practical means to illustrate and work with that principle. I like to have the student learn to derive what is being taught for themselves. That way the material will stay with them. Grounding the material being learned in some real-life experience makes knowledge meaningful and useful. That is what I endeavor to achieve. While pursuing my Master's degree, I taught several sections on Civil Engineering principles. I also held office hours to tutor students in any other classwork where they were in need of assistance. Subjects ranges from physics to structural mechanics to hydrology to fluid mechanics.

A good environment is essential to learning. A rich learning environment that cares about the deficiency needs so that intellectual achievement may occur. They will know where they stand. Students will have ideas. Those ideas will be considered valuable. Modeling and scaffolding will be used to create a foundation for learning. The success will create more motivation. Wait time will increase so students can make better responses. Constructivism will be used so the students can apply, and link the lesson to prior knowledge in a way they can retain it. . There will be some use of application assessment to see if students can apply in another setting what they have learned. I obtained my bachelors degree in Computer Science and my teaching credential. For the last 8 years I have been a teacher. I have spent 5 years teaching math at the Junior High and High School Level. This past summer

My experiences in working with children extended as a student in college, when I started volunteering in After School Programs, first starting at Parlier High School in Parlier Unified School District. I tutored students and directed review sessions for students who needed to take the California High School Exit Exam. I also provided extra curricular activities for students who were done with their homework. I continued to volunteer in the After School Program at Terronez Middle School in Fresno Unified School District. My duties were very similar as they were in Parlier High School. I began the Credential Program through California State University, Fresno during the summer, working with 5th grade students at Washington Academic Middle School in Sanger Unified School District. My intermediate student teaching was done at Madison Elementary in a 3rd grade classroom. My final student

I began tutoring during my senior year of high school as a favor for a family friend. I soon realized the demand for private tutoring services and began taking it more seriously. While attaining my Bachelor of Science degree in biochemistry, I would frequently tutor friends who needed extra assistance. Years of laboratory experience allowed me to gain an understanding of scientific writing styles, and to expand my writing and researching techniques. After completing my university studies, I began tutoring many students from my local high in various math topics. My teaching style can be described as casual and comfortable. Students who are having problems understanding certain concepts are better able to grasp difficult ideas when they feel they are in a comfortable environment where they are free to ask questions and discuss their problems openly. My goal is to be informative and h

I have a degree in mathematics from UC Santa Cruz. I am familiar I have also taught elementary school mathematics at traditional high school and at a Charter High School in the Central Valley and in San Jose Ca. I have over four years experience tutoring students, both at university level and high school level. I offer a tailored approach to each student, establishing the particular areas of strength and weakness. I aim to establish or reestablish interest in math and also to teach exam techniques. My tutoring is to focus and prior knowledge and to reinforce new information to the student. Mainly I want each student to know the concept of math not to just memorize formulas which they tend to forget. I focus in making a connection and in understanding the concept.

As long as I could remember academics have come quite easily to me, from elementary school to current classes in college. Prior to this year I've only helped out my sister extensively as she has had problems understanding most teacher's methods. I understand nearly every aspect of math up to Algebra II along with most English, philosophy, and psychology classes and have helped people that I shared a class with in all mentioned areas. Since I'm not a teacher and don't follow a schedule or have designated hours, I feel like I can be a lot more patient and easy going with students. I'd like to pride myself in how well I can take a complex idea and break it down into its sub-parts and explain it simplistically. While in a class, students may not get the attention they require, which is why I like working one on one or in small groups as that way I can get a feel of what each student needs to

First of all I love to teach and work together with parents and students. If you have questions, I have answers. I am not just having those answers for students, I will find out why students have those questions. I have earned BS in chemistry and MS in computer science. I am able to tutor students in math, chemistry, and computer programming. My only goal is to make sure students understand the subjects well and satisfy my work.

I have acquired extensive experience of the learning process from my time spent in my university studies as a student and tutor. I earned a bachelor of science degree in Mechanical Engineering with a minor in Mathematics from the University of California San Diego. I have also completed all graduate course work for a Master of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering. During my graduate studies I worked as a teacher assistant and helped tutor undergraduate students in engineering classes. The classes that I tutored had an emphasis in mathematics, physics and thermodynamics. I have also acquired experience tutoring junior high students in basic mathematics, algebra and geometry. I love the learning process and I find great joy in sharing my knowledge with others. My general approach to teaching is by presenting the material in a way that reaches all modes of learning. To accomplish this

I derive a great sense of satisfaction from helping another person “get it”. I firmly believe all people are capable of achieving their full potential if provided with enrichment and a supportive environment. I tailor my tutoring to each unique learning style, and use the Socratic method of question and answer to help the student attain their answers on their own. A great tutor enables the student to build excellent study habits and spark a curiosity for learning that will last for life. I consistently try my best to surpass these expectations for myself. As a student and professional tutor, I have always believed education and enrichment are crucial to the advancement of the individual and society. Earning a bachelor’s degree in psychology has provided me with knowledge in cognition and development. Additionally, I have comprehensive knowledge in English and language arts due to writing

I have known that teaching is my calling since I was a Freshman in high school. Learning how everything works has always facinated me and sharing that has been equally rewarding. I believe that learning can be fun when it is relevant and interactive. Students have to be given a vested interest in the learning process, asked questions. An environment of trust in which student's inquiry is encouraged is the best way of learning. Moreover, I thing that teachers have to use complementing mediums for teaching (ie. Visual aids, sensory aids, stories,music, etc.). I'm a senior at Fresno State, soon I will have a B.A. in History, which certifies my ability to research, analyze, and write proficiently. Besides having attained writing skills and expertise in the Social Sciences, I have continually improved my knowledge in several academic fields out of my own initiative; I have honed my skil
