A Little Bit About Me...

I have participated in many study groups where I actively contribute information on the topic of interest; there we help each other and teach each other. Also, I'm the oldest sibling of four, I have had many years of helping out with homework and tutoring in reading, writing and math. My education consisted of diverse studies and I learned a great deal of mathematics and sciences. Also, naturally I use proper grammar and have a good hand for writing. I am a very creative person and can come up with unique topics. I'm also very artsy and appreciate a good hands on experiment.

My comments on tutoring Physics : 5 years tutoring experience

I have been tutoring for over 10 years in all types of Math, including Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Precalculus, Calculus etc. I have also been tutoring in Chemistry and Physics. I have experience tutoring at the Middle School, High School, and College levels. I love tutoring students with diverse backgrounds ethnically, educationally, economically etc. I love people and I love teaching!
Different students have different 'keys' to learning. I utilize a flexible approach which seeks to 'unlock' the potential in each individual student.

Professional Exam Prep and Subject Tutoring

I am a professional tutor for middle school, high school, and college level mathematics, physics, and SAT/ACT Prep. My tutoring expertise is based in four and a half years of experience as the Head Tutor for the Physics and Mathematics departments at the University of North Carolina at Asheville (UNCA), three cumulative years of SAT/ACT Prep experience, and a deep passion for helping students embrace their unique potentials and reach new heights.
During my time as Head Tutor at UNCA, regardless of department, I tutored over 200 students in mathematics and physics. Of those students, at least 80% saw an increase of at least one letter grade and at least 20% saw an increase by two letter grades. Many students I tutored in one subject came back to be for tutoring in the other. For many of my students I served as an invaluable mentor who guided them from their earliest days as a colleg ... read more

My comments on tutoring Physics : Took both college-level, calculus-based, general physics courses. Topics: Newton's laws, angular motion, kinematics, inertia, momentum, electrical, magnetic, and basic concepts involving circuit boards.

Asking students about problem areas so I can make a quiz to see what fundamentals are missing. Can help with homework and test preparation too.
Tutored on TutorSelect.come before a few years back and successfully tutored over ten individual students as well as a couple of group sessions with in between 2 and 4 students. All the students I tutored were either in high school or college. My topic I predominately tutor and that I most enjoy tutoring is mathematics. I've taken Algebra, Trigonometry, Pre-calculus, all three college Calculus courses, and Differential Equations. I also took both college-level General Chemistry courses and both calculus-based Physics courses. I also was responsible in most of my classes for developing a weekly schedule for tutoring/studying course topics with fellow classmates and friends. I enjoy any math based or related science topics, enjoy problem solv ... read more

I love to teach, it is my passion in life. Every student has intelligence and every student is a genius in one subject or another in school. Any and all students can learn you just have to apply the material to them that fits their particular interests. I try to stay up to date on all the new trends and fads that kids are into in order to stay fresh and up to date with them and apply all my knowledge in science and in other subjects to fit them specifically. I have no one set way to teach any level of student because each person and group dynamic is much different than the next. I try to adapt all my lessons to fit all the learning styles (visual, auditory, hands-on, etc). I have plenty of experience teaching special needs students so I adapt my lesson plans to fit their particular learning styles as well. I try to be an educator rather than a teacher because students will remembe ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have informally tutored people of various age ranges in the subjects, physics and math , for a period that ranges over about three years . I have taught younger relatives as well as helped people informally on online tutoring message boards with math and physics problems. I have also been paid to assist students in how to operate the basic commands of computational mathematical software for three years as well.
I would be glad to work with students of all ages, but I prefer to work with a student individually rather than work with students in a group. From both my experience of being an informal tutor and being tutored, I find that students general prefer this style of tutoring because the tutor can both focus and better access their student's strengths and weaknesses in the particular academic subject they are having difficulty with.

Teaching is my passion. I love to teach, instruct or lecture and tutor students regardles of age, race, intellectual abilities and sex. I strongly believe in teaching in a way to make a positive change in the life of my students. I do not only teach, but also let my students see the relevance of what's being taught to life and towards their career in the future. I explain the topics in a simple and understandable way. I always try to relate the topic to some common day to day activities for a better understanding and rememberance. I demonstrate, describe and explain the topics to the students. I ask questions on what I taught and also allow my students to ask questions. At the end of the class, my students are always left with a better mental understanding of any topic disscussed during the class session.
I earned both my Bachelor's and Master's in Applied and Physical Chemistry re ... read more

My teaching philosophy is simple and contains three parts. Part one: The concept or topic is easy, regardless of what it is, it just must be broken down to its most basic elements. This is my job to do for the student. Once this is done for the student it will be shown that the perceived “complexity of the subject” is simply a compilation of basic elements of the subject, from here the topic can be built upon to more advanced levels; I am convinced this idea is not subject dependant. Part two: The student must decide that he or she can and will understand the subject matter and be successful in it. This too is a part of my job to encourage, motivate and instill confidence in the student. Part three: Practice, practice, and after that more practice. I will teach and encourage the student to constantly work on his or her new skills in the subject matter and as always review his or h ... read more

I love teaching and interacting with people. I gain great satisfaction from being able to help someone else understand something that they are unable to grasp on their own. I believe that students use different ways to learn. Such as visual versus auditory learning. I try to give each student the tools to be successful. I believe in explaining what they learned that day in class. Then, I like to have the student explain it to me. Also, I strongly believe in practice problems. I also employ the internet and interactive programs to help my students. I employ various methods and devise the best strategy with each individual.
I graduated from UNCW with a degree in Chemistry. I graduated with Magna Cum Laude distinction (GPA 3.804). I also, have extensive research experience. I knew that doing independent chemical research would allow me to gain knowledge that can't be taugh ... read more

I enjoy working with children and helping them to succeed in all that they do. I try to include all the children in what I am teaching. I tend to teach through example and use hands-on experience for the students to gain the knowledge that they need. My goal in education is to inspire the students to set high yet reachable goals. They need to know that someone will be behind them the entire way.
As a recent graduate from East Carolina University, I have obtained my Bachelor's Degree in Biology. Throughout the extensive coursework, I became an excellent source of information, whether it pertained to science, math, or English. I have written numerous laboratory reports, as well as many papers. I have helped other students in their quest for higher knowledge by giving them advice as well as helping them in what they are having trouble with. I have also helped proctor tests and I was a ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My main technique for teaching physics is what I call the WOW factor. It makes physics interning to students and relate to things in their lives. When tutoring physics students, I first find out what knows and is the student’s background. Then I help them with particular problems by asking them a series of smaller questions. Thus making the students understand how they can solve the problems with what they know. Finally I refine their knowledge and techniques.
As a graduate student at DePual University I stated teaching phsics laboratories as teaching assistant. I have been tutoring physics on and off since I was in college. I have six years of teaching physics at Shaw University where I taught all levels of physics, physical science, and taught both semesters of physical chemistry. Developed new curricula including the design of conventional laboratory experiments as well as la ... read more
