College Algebra Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Kittery, ME

I hold a Ph.D. in Mathematics and an M.S. in Statistics and have experience teaching undergraduates and graduates. My diverse skills and experience in mathematics, statistics, and computer programming should be advantageous in this circumstance. I have worked with mathematical software and statistical models since 1989 and love doing collaborative statistical and mathematical research to solve challenging problems. I hold a PhD in Mathematics and a Master’s Degree in Statistics. I recently worked as an independent machine learning consultant. In this capacity, I dealt routinely with HMM (Hidden Markov) models, neural networks, and LSA and LDA analysis of text data. This work consisted of programming in C++, Perl and Python and also required mastery of mathematical theory such as forecasting, Markov chains, stochastic processes, Bayesian statistics, and operators on Hilbert space.

I have taught high school math for the past 4 years involving Algebra I and Algebra II ( at various levels) and Geometry and Pre-Calculus. I have worked as a tutor for the past 6 years in these subject areas as well. I have also worked with middle school students who were taking basic math or Pre-Algebra courses. I took a course at UNH to learn strategies and techniques involved with tutoring. When tutoring, I try to meet the students needs by utilizing methods of teaching which take into consideration the student's learning style. I explain concepts using visual representations as well as numerical/algebraic models. I am a very patient teacher who will find various ways of explaining math concepts, until I find one that works for the student. I teach students the "why" behind the process rather than explaining the process of finding a solution by only listing a number of steps, wh

I use a variety of teaching methods when working with students. Every students brings their own set of skills and knowledge. It is my job to take them and make them better. I have worked with students of all ability levels and have helped them to understand and apply math. I am very patient and creative. For more than 20 years I have been making math come alive for my students. I have taught both at the high school level and the college level and worked one-on-one with my students in and out of the classroom. My curriculum experiences ranges through Algebra 1 to Calculus 2 and Statistics. In High School, I have been an AP Calculus and AP Statistics teacher for 15 years.

I began working as a Math Tutor in the Spring of 2012. I tutored three students through Club Z Tutoring, a publicly-funded tutoring organization. I also tutored a student in Pre-Calculus during the same time period. This student was introduced to me through Allison Neal, head of a private tutoring agency. The student's grades improved tremendously during the time that I tutored him. Both Allison and the student (now entering college) have willingly written me letters of recommendation for teaching and tutoring.

I have tutoring experience from family, and friends to jobs taken off of job sites. I have tutored many different courses before and will go out of my way to help a student in need if I am unsure of something. All of the subjects I put that I can tutor I can effectively help a student understand. I do not get frustrated and understand that different people learn different ways and will accommodate for that as best as possible. I believe the best teacher for a student is a student due to the easy connection. Everyone learns differently and I can help a student in the most efficent way for them to learn.

I have Bachelor Degree in Electronics Engineering and Master Degree in Systems Engineering from Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI), Massachusetts. I was one of the top notch students. I’ve worked as Software Engineer for twenty two years. In school, my favorite subject is Math. I was chosen as a member of the National Math Talent Team in High School before I came to the United States. I can speak Vietnamese and English. In college, I worked as a Math Tutor in the Learning Resource Center, as well as private tutoring for one-on-one or group of students. Now, I help my three sons in their schoolwork (currently Grade 10, 9 and 7 in 2011-2012 school year). All of them have gotten As in Math since first grade. I'm confident in my skills in tutoring students with Math. Contact me if you (or your children): - are struggling and need some one-on-one attention - want help with challen

I always do my best to be kind and understanding to every student I have. I know that everyone has different learning speeds and different proficiencies, so I always try to be accommodating of that. I also try to present material in different ways if the student doesn't understand it the first time. I have worked as a teacher aide at Temple Shalom Emeth Hebrew School. There I performed small tasks around the classroom, and assisted students in learning Hebrew and more about their Jewish heritage. I also have an ongoing job as a tutor at Salem State University's math lab. During school semesters, I help students with their homework, study for tests, and understand material better. I am also working towards a major in mathematics and a double minor in education and psychology.

I pride myself on my interpersonal skills and my ability to communicate information in ways that make it easy for people to understand and grasp the concepts at hand. I've never had a problem with communicating and explaining math. I have little work experience, but I'm very experienced in math and frequently tutored in my two semesters as CCGA in Georgia. I also tutored STAR students after school and some peers in high school. I've tutored mostly algebra, but with minor review on my end, I can teach anything below calculus and feel confident in doing so.

I love math and thick it is fun! I enjoy facilitating the ah ha moments when a learner gets it! I direct the student by asking questions and encouraging them to develop an understanding of why they are applying a certain method to solve a particular math problem. I use demonstrations to enable the student to visualize the math concept and relate it to their physical world and to experience its practical application in daily life. I believe math is most easily grasped by showing the student how to approach the problem, encouraging them to observe (and understand the logical progression) and then repeat on their own with assistance as needed. Throughout my 25 years working in business, I have enjoyed many opportunities to train, mentor and coach colleagues one on one. Many have been from another culture which adds to the delight of the learning experience as we work together. I origina
