PhD Physics, able to tutor in science, math, engineering

I was a senior scientist - engineer for 37 years. I retired to care for my comatose wife at home, and she died a few months later. This situation has left me open to new directions. My teaching experience has been 3 years as a graduate teaching assistant, and 2 years as a tutor to friends and family in science and mathematics. My goal is to show how math and science can enrich one's life and these subjects are nothing to fear.
I follow the method of G. Polya in his classic work "How to Solve It". By asking the right questions, one can help the student define his problem, form a plan for the solution, carry out the plan, and examine the result. I also try to work as many difficult problems from the student's text as time permits, in order to show that all problems have a solution, and the student can build confidence in attacking any problem. I try to present the material in ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been teaching Biology 1100 for undergraduate offered by Idaho State University for past 2.5 years. Being a biology major i enjoy teaching biology and help student understanding basic foundation of science. Understanding is a part of learning where most of the student struggle. Science would be so much fun if we stick with the basic. Beside biology i have helped students with maths, physics and chemistry which without any doubt is an integral part of science. Being a recent graduate student i have learned the way how to tackle with problems and have successfully employed those problem solving techniques in my teaching carrier.contact me 2085402785 or email: waglpraj@isu.edu

My teaching style is usually a one-on-one approach beginning with material that is proven to be relatively easier for the student so that that we can establish an enjoyable,interactive approach. We will progress to the level that will take more "thinking" on the student's part. Challenges are also necessary. I have a quiet manner and recognize the importance of the student knowing what is being asked of him/her. My goal is to enhance "independent" thinking in my students. I understand the importance of each individual student's strengths and weaknesses and help the student to thrive on their strengths and continue to improve their weaknesseses. My goal is for all children to reach their potential.I love children, I love teaching!!!!!

My experience in tutoring is a mix of working with large tutoring agencies as well as local one-on-one at home tutoring services. I have worked with students on elementary school math and reading, as well as SAT and ACT preparation. My greatest experience was when I helped a particular student with her writing skills, not just by drilling and practicing, but by boosting her confidence. With a system of positive reinforcements, we started to build upon her strengths. Her grammar and punctuation have improved vastly, and even her skills in other areas have improved because she is more willing to take risks. Those results were quite rewarding for me, and I realized that I want to help more students break barriers and achieve new limits.
Studies show that people who are used to success are more likely to try again and again when confronted with a challenge. My goal is to build a s ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I prefer to help my students make discoveries on their own. It seems to me that a good teacher is there to guide and point a student in a way that will help him learn truths. These learned truths become much more than a set of facts to be memorized. Rather, they are ideas and concepts that have been discovered by the student, and as such treasured and considered precious.
I am fascinated by the world in which we live, especially by the part that is explored, discovered and understood by science. To prepare for my own exploration of the world, I studied zoology, chemistry, genetics, anatomy, and biology; these efforts resulted in three degrees: a BS, a MS, and a PhD. I directed a successful research program for many years, during which time I taught and mentored several college and high school students in both the classroom and laboratory.

A Little Bit About Me...

In my teaching style I strive for excellence with all my students to reach their potential while under my teaching them. I am committed to improving their understanding of concepts and skills taught and for them to learn to take responsibility for their learning, too. It is important that I observe and listen to find what method of learning suits my students best. Some need a very structured approach, while others need to learn through a hands-on discovery approach. I believe that communication is essential and possible with my students even if we don't speak the same language, with cooperation from the parents as also very important. My approach is to treat each other with respect and embrace diversity. It is my goal to make a positive impact on all my students.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have spent the last two years teaching introductory biology at Virginia Commonwealth University while earning my MS in Biology. In addition to lecturing and grading papers, I have also spent a great deal of one-on-one time with my students reviewing the more difficult concepts and focusing their attention to the important aspects of biology amongst all the minute details. I have also spent a year each working as a statistics tutor and a writing center consultant at Maryville College in eastern TN. Though the majority of my experience has been at the college level, I have also worked with children ages 4-10 as the Environmental Education Coordinator for the Montreat Conference Center.
