Kalli N. - Otterbein, IN 47970 (30.1 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $27.50/hr.
I will receive my bachelors degree in mathematics from Purdue University in May 2012; however I began my college career in math education so I have taken many methods/teaching courses. In the past I have done short-term tutoring for algebra/pre-algebra, geometry, high school calculus (calc 1), and algebra II.
I have also tutored in English as a second language, specifically for native Spanish speakers. I specifically enjoy helping with homework or test prep, where the student has specific problems to work through. Otherwise, I can explain basic concepts and give practice problems to work through. I really like to work through a lot of examples because without practice it can be difficult to apply.

Kayla B. - West Lafayette, IN 47906 (36.6 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I never learned best when I was just asked to read a passage out of a book. I need to be able to apply what I am learning and understand why what I am learning is important. I will do my best to tutor students in a more hands-on manner. Hello! My name is Kayla Bear. I am a first-year student at Purdue University; however, I am a sophomore according to my credit hours. I earned college credit in high school to get ahead of the game. I worked as a peer mentor throughout high school, helping students with their homework and helping prepare them for tests such as the SAT. I have taken a number of courses in various subjects, so I feel that I am able to help a wide range of students. I was editor of my high school yearbook last year, so I have a lot of experience training people in writing and grammar. I was also asked to tutor Statistics for Purdue University due to my high achievement in my

Stephen M - Cullom, IL 60929 (32.6 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $50.00/hr.
I believe in taking a casual approach in tutoring. From previous experience, I have found that many times students understand the material but tend to get flustered in a classroom environment. I provide guidance when needed, but sometimes students just need someone there to talk it out with them. If this is the case I like to ask questions until they find the answers themselves. This method not only teaches them the material, but also builds confidence because they realize they can figure out much of it themselves. I worked for Kankakee Community College for one year as a Math and Spanish tutor in 2006 and 2007. During this year, I honed the mathematics I learned through high school as well as the four years of Spanish I had taken to that point. After a year, my classes conflicted with my tutoring schedule but I still wanted to help fellow students so I started independently tutoring. Af

Jeffrey K - West Lafayette, IN 47906 (37.2 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $35.00/hr.
My teaching style is helping the student arrive at the correct solution. In problem based courses this is usually done through asking the student what they think the next step should be and guiding them through the process of problem solving. Once they start to understand problem solving then they do not only improve in the course that I am tutoring them in but in their other courses as well. In a nutshell I try to help students learn how to learn. I tutored all through college. I have tutored one-on-one and small groups, and I have also been a TA and taught a few class periods. In addition i tutored a student in High School in several subjects. Most of my experience tutoring has been in math, physics and engineering, but I am also fluent in Spanish.

Tamara K - West Lafayette, IN 47906 (37.8 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $33.50/hr.
Having always been driven to achieve academic success, I received all A's throughout middle school and high school and was one of my high school valedvictorians. I then received full tuition to the University of Evansville and continued my academic success. My major required my to put in hours before and after the athletic teams practices and I have learned great time management skills as well as study skills. I tested out of all collegiate english, writing, and mathematics requirements. I have a natural ability to do well in math and science areas and enjoy writing. I have always loved school and find that I miss it at times. Because of that I jump at the chance to help those who need it. I college I helped other students who had math and physics classes. I have learned the skills that I needed to both learn and remember and have helped others to do so also. My best friend's lit

Chris C - West Lafayette, IN 47906 (37.9 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $34.00/hr.
I have a passion for teaching. I TA'd an intro to Bio course and have experience tutoring many students for well over seven years. I am still a student myself, so I understand the value of tutoring. I am a life-long learner, and I always strive to provide the student I am tutoring (both and young and old) the best education value I can provide. As a Purdue University grad, I have firm foundation in the following subjects: Calculus (I, II, & III), General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physical Chemistry, Chemical Engineering--(Heat/Mass, Fluids, etc.), Physics (Mechanics and Electricity/Magnetism), Differential Equations, and Linear Algebra. I also completed a minor in Spanish and am able to read, write, and speak the language fluently. Likewise, I took both Anatomy & Physiology courses (along with Intro Bio). I have tutored students in all of the subjects mentioned above for Purdue

Jill S - West Lafayette, IN 47906 (38.7 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I believe that good teachers must truly like their subjects and also must care about whether or not their students really understand the material. They must find ways to motivate their students to learn and cultivate an interested in the subject. Students usually come to me very anxious and nervous about their physics, chemistry and math classes and I enjoy helping them overcome their anxiety and frustration about these difficult subjects. My goal is not to give answers, but rather to provide examples and methods that students can use to think through problems on their own and gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of the subject that can translate to other classes, the workplace and life! I have been a community college adjunct professor for the past 5 years, teaching physics and physical science. I have also tutored in the College Learning Center where I have helped students i

Gregory C - West Lafayette, IN 47906 (40.1 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $40.00/hr.
My teaching style is largely based around feedback received from students. I like to keep the students actively involved in the learning process by asking questions which serve to point them in the right direction. I try to put myself into the head of the student and understand the difficulties that he/she is facing in learning the material; I can then modify my approach based on what I think will be the most effective way to help the student overcome his/her difficulties in learning. I am very patient with students, and I strive to ensure that they have a deep and complete understanding of the material being taught. I have always had an interest in helping others learn new material. I have earned a BS and MS in Physics, and in the process of doing this I also did extensive coursework in Mathematics. My education has given me a thorough understanding of these two subjects. At Georgia T

Jesse S - Battle Ground, IN 47920 (40.1 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I've had a strong passion for everything related to Math since grade school. This continued into high school, where I was fortunate to have an extraordinary Math instructor, who further inspired me to put forth my best. College proved difficult in that I was forced to teach myself, rather than rely on the straight-forward explanations of my high school days, in order to succeed. My long history of countless math courses and exposure to an exceptional teacher provided me with a strong foundation based on extensive knowledge and instructional tools required to help others in their academic pursuits. Also, it comes through to the students that I care just as much about their success as I do the material that I'm teaching. My teaching style depends on the student. It takes some time to identify what methods work best on the individual. In most cases, the student just needs a clearer ex

Krystal A - West Lafayette, IN 47906 (40.3 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $39.00/hr.
With a degree from Purdue University and continuing on to get a degree in engineering, I am engaged in many areas of science and math. Even at a young age I taught my younger sister basic mathematical and reading skills even before she entered kindergarten; we called it "school". The youngest, my brother, in which we are both diagnosed with ADHD, is amazing. I quickly learned to be patient with him when helping with his homework because I can see the same frustration on his face I had at his age when trying to concentrate on a difficult task. Every child wants to learn, although a more creative design may be needed to find a child's greatest potential. Patience, consideration, and encouraging words are simple tasks to help the self esteem of children in a child's education.

Katherine Z - West Lafayette, IN 47906 (40.6 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $48.00/hr.
In my senior year of high school, I realized how much I enjoyed teaching and helping others with school work when I co-taught the AP Psychology class at my school with the head psychology teacher. After high school, I went onto college at Purdue University, where I studied psychology and minored in statistics. I have a very wide-ranging course history, including a number of graduate courses. After school, I was recruited to work at a camp, where I had my first experience with such large numbers of adolescents. It was an eye-opening experience to how children learn and interact in everyday life. The camp taught me how to build a respectful relationship between a young person and an advisor. My teaching style is that all students learn differently, so why to teach them using the same methods? I learned through college that I am a very visual learner, but if the class isn’t taught tha
