I am a math PhD student at Michigan State University with experience of teaching Calculus for 8 consecutive semester. Before that, back in my home, I have been teaching Algebra, Geometry and Discrete Math to high school students for more than 6 years. I have also several years of experience in teaching math preparation courses for student mathematics olympiads to smart and talented students. I usually start a topic by proposing a problem and making the student minds to think and naturally bringing up the concepts in the topic. Then I elaborate to explain the topic, usually drawing graphs, diagrams, etc. if necessary. To learn a specific skill, for example in Algebra or Calculus, I usually apply and explain the procedure for a few simple example and then explain the technique as a general procedure.

When I was studying engineering at University of Michigan, I took a job as a tutor at Washtenaw Community College. This was the most rewarding job I ever had. Since about the year 2000, I have been working as a freelance tutor in the subjects of math, chemistry and physics. I also tutor students in engineering courses. I generally work with college students or upper-class high school students. Normally I work in the Brighton/Howell Michigan area. I meet most students at a public library or coffee shop. My average rate is $50 per hour. This can be negotiated, however. I like to take the students ability to pay into consideration and will charge less per hour if advanced payment can be arranged. I like to work one on one with students in a neutral location. Small groups are not out of the question however.

I earned BA degree from Cairo University, which gave me a strong background in math and science. I joined J.C.C this summer for a Precalculus class I got 4 points and I scored 99% in the class.I achieved great progress and I received several letters of recommendation from my math instructor and from the students that I tutored. I am very passionate when it comes to teaching specially math. Fun,Fun and Fun.Math is the subject that I enjoy tutoring the most.I have the ability to make math very simple and enjoyable.I have a very good sense of humor. I believe being happy and positive makes people around me feel the same and make them learn the material easily. Students that I have tutored found me to be very engaging and very friendly. I am very easy going, respectful and considerate.

While an undergraduate at Michigan Technological University, I often helped fellow students with their physics or math homework. I also tutored a high school student in geometry for one semester while working for Study Point in Boston. I have extensive education and experience in Science, Engineering and Business. I get along well with people of all ages, genders and ethnicities. I am very flexible in my teaching also. My goal is to improve their understanding of the subject matter through examples and working through problems.

I went to school at EMU with the intention of getting a doctorate in Physics, to teach at the college level. I ended up getting a job in IT at the University, and found I enjoy this just as much. While a student, I volunteer tutored for the Society of Physics Students, and I tutor all the student employees I have when they are taking physics classes. I love teaching, and the students that I have tutored have excelled under my supervision. I try my best to make the student figure things out on their own, by giving simple guiding questions or comments. I do not like to simply do the problems for them, as I find most people do not learn well this way. I am patient and empathetic, and I understand what it is like to approach a problem from the position of a student who is confused or unsure. I try to give them the tools to understand basic problem solving and critical thinking.

I love teaching children. I believe that every child can learn, regardless of any differentiating factors. It is my job to determine what approach will best benefit your child. I am available and willing to help your child achieve academic success. I am compassionate, patient and dedicated. My goal is to help your child reach their highest potential. I graduated from Eastern Michigan University with my BS in Elementary Education. My major was reading, and minor was mathematics. I have volunteered and substitute taught in many schools in the past years, and have gained much experience.

I believe that many students do not know how to study, and are unsure of where to begin. This is especially true for students entering college, or high school, who never really had to study before. As a tutor, it is my job to help the student break down the material into manageable parts and teach them to identify what is important, and how to get organized. The role of a tutor is to not give you the answers, but to help you get the answers on your own. I can show you how to problem solve, and help with test stress. I am available most evenings, and anytime on the weekends. I am also a member of the International Tutoring Association, and feel free to view my profile on LinkedIn at: http://www.linkedin.com/in/margaretholda I graduated from MSU in 2001 with a degree in Int'l Relations and Business. In 2007 I returned to school. During that time I took all the pre-reqs for the Accelerate

I believe in connections. Making connections between math and science, or the subject and a students experience are my way of developing an interest in learning. Everyone can learn, if they have the desire. My job is cultivate that desire. I taught an Earth Science lab my last semester. I am a substitute teacher now. I tutor middle school students two nights a week.

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. I am a licensed chemist in the Republic of the Philippines. I possess a Bachelors Degree in Biochemistry, and a Masters Degree in Environmental Health. I have taught General Chemistry in a university setting. I was also a Teaching Assistant for Principles of Environmental Health at the Univ. of Minnesota and at the Univ. of Michigan, where I am currently pursuing my PhD. Professionally, I worked as

I believe strongly in providing children an opportunity to learn material in a way that will resonate with them personally. Throughout my education leading to a dual Master's Degree I have been able to learn a wealth of information about tailoring information to meet individual learning styles. I have experience in a variety of subject areas such as: math, statistics, reading, writing, social sciences (psychology, sociology, political science). Additionally, I have provided private lessons for multiple students that play brass instruments. I love working with all children, and all age groups. I am here to help find a unique way to present the material to your child to help them understand it in language that they can understand. I am patient, easy going and considerate. My overall goal is to help young students realize their potential, and instill a love of learning.
