My unique teaching method is a combination of "Discovery" method when uniquely combined with the techniques of "Positive Reinforcement". This method of teaching mathematics is the same mode of instruction that was practiced by Socrates -"Socratic teaching"- and has an additional characteristic -"Positive Reinforcement"- that was proposed by the French philosopher Piaget. This combination is an excellent teaching method that guarantees understanding and retention of Mathematics by students of all ages. Have been teaching mathematics at high schools, colleges, and universities since 1981. I am an expert in teaching all mathematics courses offered at high schools and colleges, particularly all Algebra courses, Geometry, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, and Calculus I. Also, I have taught all Pre-College Mathematics courses to high school graduates. Although my highest college degree is not in Ma

I use an innovative mode of teaching Mathematics - about which I wrote my Dissertation - that is a unique combination of the "Socratic" or "Discovery Method" and "Positive Reinforcement" techniques.This approach enables students of all ages to think independently, become interested and eager to discover facts and solution methods and procedures of various Mathematical topics and problem solving procedures. This teaching mode helps the student(s) to become independent and "eager to learn Mathematics" individual(s). . I am a recently retired college and university Mathematics Professor, and have taught secondary school and "high school completion" Mathematics courses to the Navy Recruits as well. I have taught Mathematics courses to students of all ages: Elementary Schools(as a "Mathematics specialist"), Secondary Schools(Middle Schools/High Schools), through Colleges and Universities

Please Note: I have been a college Mathematics Professor for three decades. I hve taught Secondary Schools, and also, Universities and evening universities for adult professionals for several years. The subject that I have taught include: Pre-Algebra, Algebra(El.,Int.,Coll.) Trig., Pre-Calc., and Calc. I "Socratic" Discovery or "Discovery Method" uniquely combined with techniques of "Positive Reinforcement". I tarted tutoring Mathematics when I was a sophomore at College myself.I believe when one reads all the previous detailed information that I have given about my former "Discovery Teaching" and other related experience in Mathematics instruction ,training, and publications, at and for ALL LEVELS, it should be relatively evident that I AM ABLE TO PERFORM WELL as a tutor/Teacher/Instructor of the mentioned Mathematical topics. I have taught almost all Secondary schools, including AL

Bachelor's degree in Mathematics. Alegbra is one of my favorite subjects. I believe the best way to learn is hands on experience. If I don't find one way to help the student understand I will do my best to try another approach. I have 3 kids under 10, so I am patient with small children, but I expect them to be focused. Worked about the last 20 years in the actuarial field (short stint away to get my degree), which involves data analysis in excel and access and some programming. I received my bachelor's degree in Mathematics with a minor in statistics in December of 1998. While in school I graded lower division math papers for my teachers, I taught a basic programming language as well as ran a classroom for a virtual teacher (video taped class)

Before becoming a Speech Language Pathologist 7 years ago, , I worked with children with learning disabilities with another speech path, as a tutor, special education aide, liaison for children with learning disabilities in a private school helping to modify curriculum and at Lindamood-Bell. I have 20 years of experience with students with educational needs. Although I have focused on speech for the last few years, I love math and miss helping students learn to love it too. I like to make learning fun while working hard.

I believe that each person, whether a child or an adult, possess certain unique qualities and learning styles. With this in mind, I tailor my teaching skill sets to the student's learning style, while incorporating innovative techniques to maximize their learning potential. Mediocrity is not an acceptable norm. I will do my best to help my student to achieve his/her best while doing so in a friendly and respectful environment. It is my sincere belief that one person can make a difference. It is with this in mind that I signed-up to be a substitute teacher and also to volunteer my services with Lake County to tutor basic literacy and ESL to those in need of these services. I worked as a substitute teacher from November 2004 until February of 2006. I also have experience at Literacy Volunteers of America tutoring ESL students. Learning is a lifelong process and I hope to foster and or en

I have experience teaching and tutoring at various levels and locations, including several countries. Am flexible as to learning materials and methods depending on your time, availability, budget and resources. My main concern is how YOU can learn and retain better. Each student must understand (before integrating) their own strengths and weaknesses into their study skills and become a systematic achiever. I will assist and teach you how to empower yourself in the chosen topics. You will gain confidence in what you know (where you can excel), who you are (what drives you), what you really want (what profession/path/trade inspires you), and how to get where you want to be by creating and implementing a step to step plan to your goal(s)/success.

As a lifetime learner, I like to share my love of learning with others. My specialty is helping those who have difficulty learning something. I love math but like to teach it so it can be applied to life situations. I believe technology can help us learn but can also overwhelm us. As a special education classroom teacher for two years, test scores for special education students also went up for two years. I believe in hands on learning. I found out the best way you learn and help you discover your strengths for learning.

Very hands on and simplified. I am a Graduate Student at San Diego State University obtaining my Masters in Structural Engineering and Geotechnical Engineering while working full time as an engineer for a private firm. I graduated from San Diego State University in 2011 with a B.S. in Civil Engineering, after switching from Aerospace Engineering, and 2 minors in Physical World Geography and World History. I enjoy tutoring/teaching, and can give students a very real perspective of the current teaching methodologies and subject matter. I tutored right after I graduated, before I passed my E.I.T. certification.

I find that the best way to tutor is to use a combination of different methods. For example, I think that pictures/ball and stick structures, reading materials, and having a discussion about the question at hand are all useful and important ways to completely understand Chemistry. I am an extremely patient person, and I believe it is imperative to understand one topic before moving to the next. I like to prepare extra handouts and materials for my students, because I find that presenting material in as many ways as possible is the best way fully grasp the concept. I completed a Masters in Chemistry in 2009, and since then I have worked as an organic chemist in an academic setting. During graduate school, I taught college level chemistry and organic chemistry in a laboratory setting. I prepared lectures and handouts, held study groups in small and large group settings, and worked wit
