Trigonometry Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Kansas City, MO

Based on my experience, I believe that anyone has the capability to learn and expand their knowledge on a subject - if they put the work in. My goal is for my students to begin to "learn how they learn" so they can develop the self-confidence to begin solving problems on their own. I facilitate student growth by assessing strengths and weaknesses, focusing on problem areas, and improving problem solving skills. The skills gained from these sessions will not only help students with a particular test or subject, but will help them in countless future classes and endeavors. My name is Alex and I have Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Engineering from Kansas State University. I graduated from Bishop Miege High School. I scored a 34 on the ACT and I have 5 years of tutoring experience at KSU in subjects such as Geometry, Trigonometry and College Algebra all the way to Differential Equations.

I earned my Masters Degree in Mathematics from the University of Kansas. I have over 10 years of teaching experience at the University of Kansas and I am currently a visiting professor at DeVry University. Recently I have authored several mathematics textbooks for iBooks. My interactive calculus book was featured in the Apple Keynote address for the iPad mini. I was nominated GTA of the year in 2010 at the University of Kansas for my teaching performance. I also received the award of tutor of the year in 2006 for the Kansas Algebra Program at the University of Kansas. For 3 semesters I was director of Mathematics Placement Exams at KU. Also for 4 years I was a supervisor at the Kansas Algebra Program at KU, which involved managing a math help room that served hundreds of students on a daily basis. In my experience I have helped students of all learning types and abilities. I

As a graudate student I was a held a postion as a Graudate Research Assistant for the Geotechnical Lab. As such I taught undergraduate students the theory behind laboratory test, what each test provides the engineer and how to conduct the test. Furthermore I assisted undergraduate students with homework problems and helped them prepare for tests. I am very hands on. I like to first show how a problem is done, discuss the purpose of each step and then the student work the problem. From there I prefer to have students work problems and ask questions as they come up. After each problem is complete I then review the problem with the student.

I put mysef in the shoes of my student after reading the mind of my student. My first goal is to remove the phobia that scares and discourages most of the learners. I motivate those who gave up to learn. I am innovative. I use strategies and resource that help my students start from their present level upward after building self confidence. Step by step success leads to a major success. I believe everyone can learn when you light the fireworks of 'desire to learn' in their mind. You must win the mind and confidence of your students and tutees. My belief is that my students can learn when given appropriate learning experiences with patience and care. I am a master teacher and mathematics, chemistry physics instructor at Senior High School level. I have been teaching and tutoring these subjects for 30 years. My experience ranges from Algebra, Geometry, Trig, Pre-Calculus, Calculus,

I have teaching certificate and have been substitute teaching. I have 2 Masters degrees,in Mathematics and Education. I have taught at Sylvan Learning Centers and at 3 Community Colleges. I can work with students of all ages. I enjoy helping others learn and will ask a lot of questions to be sure my students understand the material. I will provide examples and explain the concepts, then have the students work out a few similar problems to be sure they understand.

My form of teaching is such that it involves the students more than the tutor. I encouraged the student to be able to solve problems on their own. Call me when there is a problem that the student needs help. I love to know what part of the questions they don’t understand and help them to understand. To me interaction with students on particular question and trying to figuring out solutions together are more important than the final answer. I first became interested in tutoring college. Then I started teaching both chemistry and math at both high school and college levels over the years. I have also been involved in conducting labs for undergraduate students at all level in the department of chemistry. I have worked with research intuitions like the Department of Science and Technology at the Ministry of Education Republic of Liberia. I think with this I have been able to deal with stud

I love teaching -- standing in front of a class of students, feeling the pressure of their attention and responsibility for their education -- but I think I enjoy tutoring more. Even when I was teaching a class of twenty-five college freshmen, I tried to move things in that direction, giving my students incentives to come by during my office hours (hard to do with such busy students). In the classroom, I made good use of the SMART boards (interactive computer displays), although I also enjoyed just talking to the students: I made the classroom a place that was relaxed and open to free discussion, but one which also had a purpose (basically, to learn to write). I enjoy teaching and working with children: my parents adopted my two little sisters when I was a teenager and decided to home school them, so I helped out with their education. I recently completed graduate work in English at

As a student at Grinnell College, I was motivated to achieve at a high level. During my four years of college, I earned a BA in French and Biology. I also spent four months during my third year studying in France, where I lived with a host mother and attended classes at a local university. Currently, I am working toward earning my Master's Degree in Education at the University of Missouri-St. Louis. I tutored college and high school students while attending college, and I currently tutor middle school and elementary students in math, reading, and science. A variety of instructional methods must be used to engage all students in learning. In order to help a child reach his or her potential, a teacher must be willing to acknowledge that student's learning style and work toward improving the child's weaknesses while also enhancing his or her strengths.

Although it has taken me a long time to find my true calling, I can honestly say that I have. I simply love teaching and working with children. I have a desire to help all students learn to their abilities in a supportive and constructive environment. All students have their own unique style of learning and it is the educator’s responsibility to determine that style and work to bring a student's hidden skills to the surface. Learning is about discovery and discovery proceeds from asking the right questions. It is my ultimate goal for each student to gain academic independence and develop an inner confidence through knowledge. While I had to put my studies on hold for close to a decade because of family concerns, it was during that time that I was able to establish a tutoring business based out of Seattle, WA. I gained valuable experience working with children having many unique learning

I am currently in my last year of undergraduate work in mathematics at UMKC. I have been an informal math tutor for numerous students in the last few years. Last semester I worked for the UMKC Physics department as a lab assistant for graduate students, and did physics tutoring. I have a strong knowledge in mathematics all the way up through differential equations, and advanced proofs techniques. I realize I do not yet have a plethora of experience, but helping fellow students with math has always been enjoyable and rewarding to me. I enjoy tutoring because it allows me to share the thought processes I go through when trying to solve a math problem. In high school I struggled with mathematics, which I believe has always given me a special insight into other people's struggle with the subject. In my opinion the best way to teach someone is to simply discuss the subject with them until you
