I enjoy working with students of all ages, although most of my experience has been with middle school age and older. I use a couple of different techniques to help students understand math, including using visual aides, problem solving techniques, role reversal (where they explain a lesson to me), blackboard/whiteboard work, and games. I believe it's really the responsibility of the tutor to understand the student's learning style and adjust the teaching to fit the learning style.
I have tutored students in math and science (mainly math) for over 13 years. I have helped students in various levels of mathematics - basic math, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and pre-calculus. After working with me on a consistent basis (2/3 days/week) many of the students have received honors in their math courses, including "Most Improved" and "Highest Average". I am also proud to say that a c ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Many students struggle with relationships and well as their academics. I believe in creating a safe, nuturing environment were a student is able to work at his own pace, at his own level, and feel a bond with his teacher. Setting realistic and obtainable goals with the student is a key factor to success. Measuring and documenting progress allows student, teacher, and family to see a visual record of growth. Addressing multiple intelligences and multiple learning styles are essential for struggling students. Finding a student's best mode of learning increases self-esteem and time on task.
I have 20 plus years of teaching experience. I have worked with students from pre-school age to adults. I have taught students with a variety of disabilities and functioning levels from severely impaired to gifted.

My love for children and wanting to make a difference in their lives, led me to get my Masters degree in Early Childhood Education. I believe that learning can make a difference in one's quality of life, and should be a lifelong process. I have 8 years experience either teaching or tutoring elementary aged children in basic reading skills, academic reading, and elementary math, as well as writing basic essays and papers. In fact, parents have asked for me by name, and commented to others on how I have helped their children achieve academic success. I also, hold a Bachelor's Degree in Fine Arts, have taught art, and love it!
Young children learn best through things that have meaning to them. For example, I once tutored a child that had difficulty learning his multiplication tables, but was an avid NASCAR fan. I taught him the sums of multiplication problems by using the numbers on ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a graduate in retail management, I was driven to work in an area where communcations skills are a must. I graduated with a 3.0. I took speech skills, and was required to write several papers, often lengthy. In high school testing, I ranked in 90-96th percentile for English and Spelling. In college, I took a notoriously hard organic chemistry class. Once I sought out a tutor, I aced the class. Having been an administrative assistant and office manager, using correct grammar is a must.
As a mother of two young children, I want to see all children exceed. Children learn through positive reinforcement and by slowly building confidence, as his or her work improves. Childen should not be made to feel inferior, but need approriate teachings to fit his or her personalities. All it takes is a little confidence to start off with, keep encouraging and praising, and this can be achieved wh ... read more

I've always been a highly focused and disciplined individual in regards to academics; ever since high school I've taken a serious liking to chemistry and math, not only because of their importance in daily life but also for the mental challenges they pose. During my time at the Hazleton campus of Penn State University, I had the opportunity to tutor other students in these two subjects. I was well-rounded by the time I finished my ChE degree, having gained valuable experience from using computer software, writing lab reports, and collaborating with others on research projects. I've never lost my enthusiasm for teaching - I still enjoy going online at Yahoo Answers and assisting people across the country with problem solving.
Few things bring me more personal joy than helping others become better learners and seeing them smile when they overcome their struggles. I never use a one-si ... read more

As a recent graduate, I have learned the importance of education. I have earned a Bachelor of Science with a major in Biology and minor in Chemistry. Not only do I contain a strong understanding in those subjects but took several classes in other areas to become a well-rounded individual. I dedicated my time most of my time to studies but I also took time out to participate in campus activities, as well as, participate in numerous volunteer programs. I received rewards for my dedication to tutoring and mentoring the youth in the inner city.
I enjoy working, teaching, and mentoring children. I have learned to adjust to the different learning styles of children, which makes it easier for the child to feel more comfortable with learning. In order to work with children there has to be a great amount of patience and concern. I have learned patience through working with children from all ... read more

Effective teaching involves making sure that the student stays engaged in the learning process. Incorporating different teaching tools such as videos, figures, and real life examples not only enhances the likelihood of the student “getting” the material but also increases their probability of actually retaining it. Seeing the material from different angles serves as an excellent means of reinforcement. Patience is extremely necessary in working with someone to help him or her reach his or her highest potential. Hence, I am here to foster a specialized learning plan that best suits the student’s need.
Throughout my years of employment, I have had significant experience in the areas of science and medicine. Currently, I am an Anatomy and Physiology instructor at a community college. My laboratory experience includes being a laboratory technician for BioLife Plasma Services and ... read more

I completed all course work for a masters of physics at University of Alabama at Birmingham, only lacking the thesis. G.P.A. at the end of the course work was 3.65. Along the way, as I finished the graduate course work (and in order to pay the rent) I did ad-hoc tutoring with a number of undergrad students along with a more formal semester of 'coaching' a class of undergrads in their regular physics class. This entailed going over problems with them, showing them how to correctly formulate solutions. On top of this, I worked, formally, as a graduate teaching assistant for 2 years, and I taught in the Birmingham public schools (high school level) as a physics teacher. All told, quite a lot of teaching involved with all levels of students.
My teaching style is easy to describe; I consider myself a 'coach' and as such I don't (and wont) give the students the answer to a particula ... read more

I enjoy teaching and helping students learn something new and am willing to be patient with any leaner until he has mastered a new skill. I believe that all children learn differently. Therefore, teaching a child using the learning style in which they learn the best is the key to academic success.
I have earned a BS in Chemistry and a Minor in Biology. Over the past two years I have tutored students in chemistry and biology as a professional tutor and on a volunteer basis. Through my research experiences on the UAB campus I have gained valued skills in drafting research papers and scientific reports.

I am driven by knowledge, the more knowledge I have the more I can relate to people from all walks of life. I have always been fascinated most by science and psychology. I studied biology, chemistry and psychology in college and earned a bachelors degree in Psychology. Through this I have acquired grammatical skills on how to write research papers and lab reports. I taught a study tactics course for a year and a half that focused on chemistry. This gave me the advantage to not only teach study habits but also help students learn chemistry. Through this experience I also privately tutored students.
Children are one of the greatest joys in life because I get to watch them learn and understand the world around them. Children are sponges that soak up all the knowledge present to them. My teaching style is hands on. I want children to learn not just by a book but by practical applicat ... read more

As a graduate from Auburn University and a post graduate now at UAB I have a very driven personality to succeed in life and pursue high goals for myself. I came from a less challenging background, (high school) and I know that it is a competitve world out there especially for kids in the science and math fields. I know that my background in science and math has given me the skills to help others in math problems, science questions, ways to study for this type of material and also how to write laboratory reports. I tutored some in college and had success with the students I helped.
My teaching style really is centered around the type of student I am helping. Some kids need a visual experience where others need a lot of repetition. I first get to know the student and figure out how they learn the best and then I go from there. I am very patient and understanding and will do whatever ... read more
