More About This Tutor...

I passionately enjoy teaching and working with children. I believe that all students deserve to have a quality education and the opportunity to reach their fullest potential. I want my students to learn the fundamental content of the courses I teach. Beyond that, I hope to foster critical thinking, facilitate the acquisition of life-long learning skills and help develop problem-solving strategies that can be used both inside and outside of the classroom. I hope to help all of my students grow as indivduals in this ever changing world.
As a graduate student working towards earning my Master's in Education, I presently observe and do field research studies with students at the elementary age. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration degree which has enabled me to gain in depth experience and comprehension in mathematics. I have worked with school children for several y ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a Bachelor degree in Physical Science(math major) and will be awarded a masters degree in Applied Math in June 2010. I have vast experience in both teaching and tutoring of math courses to student with varied economic standing as well as age groups.
I am a fun of verbalization of math concepts. I encourage my students to demonstrate their level of understanding of the material I teach to narratives, summarizing and sharing of knowledge with other students. This boosts the confidence of the student and minimizes learning by rote. I draw on my successes and failures in studying math to mentor my students and ensure that they meet their goals.

Good teaching is as much about passion as it is about reason. It's about not only motivating students to learn, but teaching them how to learn, and doing so in a manner that is relevant, meaningful, and memorable. It's about caring for your craft, having a passion for it, and conveying that passion to everyone, most importantly to students.
I am a degreed Mechanical Engineer with over 4 years of work experience specialization in CAD and FEA. I have around 2 years of teaching experience (taught Pro-E for Undergraduate Students at Bradley and Maths,Science for +12 students in India)

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a Bachelor's degree in Mathematics, with a concentration in Statistics. I'm currently working on a Master's degree in Biomathematics at Illinois State University so that I can teach either Biology or Math at the community college level. I have over 5 years of experience teaching Pre-Algebra, Algebra, Pre-Calculus, and lower and upper division Statistics. I generally focus on tutoring college-age students, but I have tutored high school juniors and seniors in the past, and would welcome the opportunity to do so again.
My strengths are in teaching lower level math and statistics to students who don't "get" math. I have an easy-going, patient personality, and I firmly believe there is no such thing as a bad question. I am good at breaking math down to it's most basic level, and going through every step to ensure that you don't get lost. If a particular concept isn't making sen ... read more

While earning my degrees, I was inducted into a honor society with emphasis on helping the engineering students in our department in several way. Our focus was working with companies for future jobs and offering free tutoring every week for all computer and electrical engineering courses that were junior level and below. For 3 years I was apart of the tutoring while juggling my course load which also included a great deal of mathematics. My degrees required all three levels of Calculus, but I also completed additional calculus classes beyond those requirements.
My teaching style is very similar to how I was taught, lots of examples with guidance. I was never given the answer, but given all the tools to necessary to complete the task. In most math courses, the problems themselves are not what you have to worry about, but the clock is the real problem. Therefore, lots of exampl ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I taught one semester of College Algebra at Illinois State University. I was responsible for 2 sections of lab while I completed graduate credits for a Master's in Mathematics. My B.S. in actuarial science (math) was attained from Bradley University. Also, I've been a youth minister at the local church for a year and half now and have formed a large group consisting of junior high and high school students.
I love to put myself in the students' shoes. I have the ability to relate to the students on an individual level and they respect me. I always hope that no one is left behind just because they are afraid to ask questions. I believe in having fun while learning and in being honest with your students.

I love teaching. I us a guiding method of teaching. Because I believe that students learn the most when they do the work themselves, but sometimes they need someone there to motivate them or to guide them in the right direction. I feel this works in group studies also, but, the difference being is that all the student will be involved in a group discussion.
I am a student that has a drive of excellence. I graduated from Northern Ill. Univ in 2010, as cum laude. I hold a B.S. in BioChemistry. I have experience as a tutor, which I obtained while as a student at NIU. I would tutor other students with in the chemistry, math, and biology departments.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have grown up in an education oriented household with both parents as teachers (Dad Chemistry and Mom English). Since earing my degree in CIS I have had 10 years of industry experience as well as having worked as a substitute teacher in both the Galesburg (CUSD #205, 200-2001) and Peoria (District 150,2007-Present) School Districts.
I believe everyone has their own aptitude for learning and will endeavor to discover each childs unique style for learning to help them strive to do their best in each endeavor they apply themselves to. My goal is to provide the best education possible and work with their own unique personalities on how to get them there. My parents and educators were a big factor in my life growing up and I hope to pass along some of that insight, knowledge and passion for learning that they taught me.

I really starting to help tutor people in high school. I found out that I enjoy helping people with there challenges and watching them succeed. I believe that when teaching or tutoring someone that you find a method that works for that person. That having a teaching template helps as a guide, but if you are not willing to change your method for the student they are never going to be able to retain the information for long term use.
As a graduate of St. Ambrose University, an Eagle Scout and a hard worker at my job, I have been able to use my focus, dedication and determination through out my life. I have learned a great deal in the academic as well as the professional world. I have earned a degree in Finance and an associates in Accounting and Economics.

More About This Tutor...

I have worked in ICC's mathlab since fall 2008, tutoring all kinds of math ranging from elementary Algebra and Geometry to Calculus, though I do not do statistics. I can also tutor Discrete Math, a subject about logic, math puzzles, algorithms and computational concepts. I am an active member of the Association of Mathematics Engineering and Science Students, a club that promotes group work and student tutoring. I grew up in China and lived there for 16 years before I came to US for college education. I can speak, read and write Chinese fluently. The tough high school years in China made me a better Chinese tutor than many grown-ups.
I'm friendly, and I'm willing to help anybody who need help. I like to make the students think for themselves because I believe that math and physics is more about the understanding of the concept than remembering the formulas. To get better understan ... read more
