More About This Tutor...

I love science and love to teach! I believe that teaching is an intentional effort. It’s not just about presenting information, but also about motivating. I set high standards, but also emphasize that science can be fun. As a tutor, I will provide a positive environment that focuses on what can be done, not on what can’t. My teaching approach is hand-on and my experience as a consultant provides me with a variety of real-life examples of how science is used and applied. Whenever possible, we’ll look beyond the textbook and translate to an application so that information “sticks”. I also emphasize good writing skills and organizational thought.
My education includes degrees in Biology, Environmental Science, and Education. Some of my coursework included botany, zoology, chemistry, physics, ecology, scientific methods and writing. As an environmental consultant for the past 23 years, ... read more

I really enjoy, generally speaking, helping people, but mainly help them pursue a future degree for themselves and a better life. I keep telling to my students that they should erase the "math fear" and that everything is easy if one understands it. Also, in case that they do not understand is my fought as a teacher and I am going to find a better way to explain the issue. In teaching, I try to make things easy for the students and make sure that they understood them. I believe that students should participate in the classroom.
I always wanted to become a math teacher, but in order to become one in a communist regime; you had to be a member in the Romanian Communist Party. So, I obtained a BS in Mechanical Engineer (172 credit hours). I was working as a designer in Romania and had in parallel a private math and physics tutoring business. At NEIU I finished a lot of credits hours to ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and working with others, especially children. I first like to start with finding out where the child is confused by going over and re-teaching past assignments that were misunderstood. I like to go over past tests and make sure they understand what they missed and teach them the correct answer. I believe that this is very important so they can grasp future material. I will then try many different teaching styles to either find what works best for the particular child or to keep things interesting and keep the child wanting to learn. Nothing is too hard for any child it is just how the material is presented and the fact that someone is taking one on one time with your child to make sure they understand before moving to the next topic.
In high school I tutored middle school and elemetary school aged children in reading, math, and chemistry. In college I tutored other ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style revolves around a desire to make complicated subjects as simple and accessible as possible. In teaching so many different types of learners, my methodologies are as varied as my students. A teacher's primary responsibilities are to listen, adapt and teach to the needs of a given student--all driven toward the goal of true education. Regardless, my teaching is grounded in the fact that greatest gift I can offer a student is my time and dedication. If a student truly feels how much I care about his or her betterment, that student's success is inevitable.
Throughout my entire life, regardless of the endeavor, I have been driven toward education--both of myself and my responsibility to teach others. I have tutored young children, children with attention disorders, high school and college students, and adults in subjects including math, science, language arts, gram ... read more

I am currently a graduating senior at Wilberforce University. When that day comes, I will have a BS in Biology. This degree has allowed me to gain hands on experience within different fields of study along with enhancing my kowledge of the biological sciences and all that it embodies. Also with Spanish, I have not had the experience of teaching but I have been learning the Spanish language for the last ten years (since the sixth grade). I can read as well as write the language and hold a descent conversation. I have previously worked as a tutor/mentor in this field of study for high school graduates. This particular job was to help fulfill a semester worth of requirements in 8 weeks.
I enjoy teaching children of all ages, but I prefer to teach children within the middle school and high school ages. I feel that those times are critical to their learning and retention of information ... read more

My teaching style is customized to each student's needs. Because all students have different learning styles my instructions are patterned to maximize that student's particular style. After evaluating each student with a baseline test, goals and objectives based on the state's/district's curriculum are determined. My style is setting high but realistic expectations with rigorous assignments. I also try to have an overdose of encouragement and make the learning session fun time for students.
Teaching has been my last career change. My prior experience has been in the field of manufacturing, maintenance engineering services and construction management. This diversified background was instrumental in equipping me to acquire a technology education certificate in three states (NY, OH, NJ) I am equipped to tutor elementary students in math, the physical sciences and language arts.

I have always felt that tutoring should offer a much more laid-back approach at getting concepts across to students. This is a chance to learn material in an environment that doesn't bear the pressures and stresses of the classroom and achieving a certain grade. Also as opposed to a classroom, I feel that the student should have the floor. This is their time to ask questions and talk through problems. When doing problems, I usually like to ask questions that gradually lead up to the answer and establish the concepts to get to the solution. Finally, I like tutoring experiences to be fun and am not afraid to lighten the mood with occasional jokes, as it seems that this atomosphere makes students more open and excited to learn the given material.
Throughout my undergraduate studies at the University of Illinois, I developed a passion for teaching and helping others achieve the ac ... read more

I believe in allowing students the room to direct their own learning. Students who believe that they play an important role in their own education find a deeper level of satisfaction and pride both in their abilities and in their studies. Learning should be fun and exciting and offer students the ability to challenge themselves, explore their world, and see the value of knowledge and academics. Individual instruction is an ideal learning environment and offers the opportunity to tailor a student's program of study to their own unique learning style and interest.

A Little Bit About Me...

After my sophomore year at Wright State University, I decided to pursue a career in teaching and earned my BA in Secondary Education (Math) and my MA in General Classroom Teacher. I accepted a job to teach mathematics at the MVCTC in 2001 and have been there since teaching Basic Math, Algebra, Algebra II, Geometry. Additionally, I have tutored students in Statistics.
My goal is to help any student not only come to the correct solution, but also understand how they came to that solution. I am patient, thorough, and willing to take the time to help a student understand what it is they are doing. Many times students are just happy to “get the answer.” I believe it is just as important to understand the process of coming to a solution as it is to get the correct solution. I believe all students can and want to learn, however they need an instructor who is motivated, competent, an ... read more
