More About This Tutor...

I remember many of my high school colleagues asked me to teach the class because of unique talent in teaching I had. I believe students have problems in learning because they get information in wrong orders or they cannot arrange them in correct order. Teachers should organize and deliver information in suitable ways, so students can recall them easily. I published a paper, which described the impact of modern active teaching strategies on student’s performance. I found that when students find the information themselves, they would retain them for long time and use them in their daily life.
I have tough for more than 10 years. Two important things teacher must have, deep understanding of the subjects and outstanding methodologies to deliver information to the trainee. On 2014, I got my high diploma on modern teaching methodologies after my PhD in Engineering. I have tough Mathemati ... read more

I have about 3 years of extensive hands-on and successful teaching experience, I am confident in my ability and passion to teach mathematics. Being a versatile individual I have taught below, on and above average grade level. I have been successful at accommodating diverse students’ needs by offering individualized and extracurricular support and integrating effective materials. Being a hard working educator, I welcome the opportunity to discuss with you how my experience, collaborative nature, and innovative skills will benefit your child. Thank you for your time and consideration and I look forward to hearing from you soon.
The one thing that I observed about the learning process, is that a person quickly grasps a concept if he/she is interested, or the topic is thoughtful and challenges the wit of a person and lastly, a person is very comfortable in learning through his/her fr ... read more

As a tutor, I am able to focus completely on an individual's learning needs. I begin a tutoring relationship by having students perform a series of diagnostic activities, and then tell me about their strengths and weaknesses as learners, as well as their hopes and expectations for the tutoring sessions. With that information, I am better able to design learning activities that address students' learning needs and make the best use of their talents. In other words, it is "all about" the students -- except as far as I am the one facilitating their engagement and discovery.
I have over six years of professional experience as an educator. In my career as an educator, I have worked with students ranging from young English language learners in central Mexico to recent high school graduates enrolled in a large urban university to international business and engineering professionals. ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My resume highlights my ability, knowledge, and expertise in individual and group therapy at a master level in the field of social work. During my time at Eastern Michigan University, I was able to advance my skill set and knowledge-base by being in a supervisory role. As I matriculated, I learned how to multi-task as I was a graduate student and an employee for EMU. In my role I tutored and advised college students who were on academic probation, specifically in the subjects english and history.
I dealt directly with children and families from disenfranchised populations, demographically diverse populations, and special needs populations. What I value most is having the opportunity to work with adults and children simultaneously. This gave me a broad over-standing of how to approach very challenging situations. In addition, what I have found to be an effective tool when working wi ... read more

I love teaching. I feel children learn differently .Some children are visual while other children are lecture oriented. I have many ways of teaching, but I feel actual interaction works the best. I also feel that an approach to the big picture of how the material fits into the everyday life situations helps. I like to feel if you take the anxiety out of the material students learn with an open mind. Learning should be fun and rewarding.
I have tutored in a community college for the last year. I also tutor Chinese students in math and biology; I speak Chinese and understand the language barriers that face non-speaking English students. I got my B.S years ago .I went back to school in my forties .I also tutor Psychology and Sociology I have several papers in review on Psychology related issues. I am President of our schools research group.

It’s important to be able to impart knowledge to the student smoothly and only to answer the asked questions. Too much information can cause a student to “overload”. This can make the student afraid to ask questions in the future or to think that the topic is so difficult. A good tutor will try to simplify things and brief the answers so he keeps the child interested to learn more.
I love teaching math and science to high school students up to early college levels. I have lots of experience and can be flexible in the way I teach based on the student style.

I have a hands on teaching style that mixes fun activities with an emphasis on asking children questions. I pay attention to each individual student and try to figure out what their learning style is. I try to center activities around how they learn (ie. if they are a textile learner, I'll bring in physical shapes to work on geometric problems as opposed to worksheets). I believe that application and explanation to others are the best route of learning, so I like to have kids who are at different levels work together on subjects they may have difficulties with.

More About This Tutor...

I am a believer of the mastery of the basic concepts. I usually start explaining the fundamental principles, and apply these principles in our everyday life. I usually start with the easy problems, as I proceed with the harder and more challenging ones as soon as the student masters the "building blocks." I try to inject as much humor and practicality, and try to relate the course in a way the student can relate to make the subject a more rewarding, enjoyable and fulfilling experience.
