I have been a Teacher/Coach for the past 4 years, and a Tutor for the past 6 years. I am well versed in all areas of Mathematics, and along with that Problem Solving, and Test Taking. I have taught at the High School Level from 2008-2011, and for the past year, I have taught both High School and College, as well as Tutor Students from Elementary School to College. When explaining the aspects of a particular subject, especially Mathematics, I break down the work into its simplest form, and from there, build up to more complex components. With a foundation of Problem Solving, anything in Math is able to be understood.

I am someone who understands that not all children learn effectively the same way. I am someone who will sit down with my student and ask them questions regarding how they learn and how they do not learn. Sometimes a student will not know how they learn effectively but they will know what does not work for them. From there I try to tailor a program to suit that student. As a tutor you are able to have that one on one time and you can design your instructions for a specific student therefore making your teaching more effective. While pursuing a double degree from the University at Buffalo and working part-time, I worked in peer tutoring groups for Latin and writing. I have experience proof reading papers and correcting grammar. My four semesters of college Latin have given me a understanding of English language origins and modern usages. Latin also helps me to use punctuation and grammar

I am a firm believer in relating education to the real world. This philosophy transcends into my teaching style. I make it a mission to ensure my students understand what they're learning rather than simply memorizing it to pass a test. I want my students to not only learn the subject matter but develop a fundamental understanding of what it takes to succeed in school, college, and the real world. As a recent grad, there are so many lessons I have learned throughout my academic and early professional career that I wished someone had taught me. I will do my best to make sure my students learn those lessons well in advance of actually needing them. All in all, I will help my students develop a comprehensive understanding of the subject matter. I have 8 year of professional experience in public practice, corporate accounting, and consulting. I have done everything from external and

I have done assistant teaching for my professors at Concord University. I helped set up laboratory equipment, answered college freshmans' questions and provided reasons for why certain biological processes occurred in Biology 102. I only did it for two hours per week, but I learned how to cooperate with college students and provide my insight of biology. I had no exact teaching method. However, I was able to answer simple questions and allowed the students to work on their problems by discovering some of the ideas themselves.

I have presented lectures and am comfortable in front of others and take a very professional approach to the material. My goal is to not only have the student succeed with the material but to present it in a way that sparks their intellectual curiosities so that they go beyond in learning the material. I like to tutor others on a one to one basis so that they feel that the tutoring is more personal to them and that i am truly catering to their needs. I have worked as a student assistant for Dr. Peter F. Biehl (Department of Anthropology, Chair). In this position I have presented lectures and helped others with their projects. I have worked with INSA translating services in which I translated regents exams from russian to english and vice versa. I have also worked as a GRE tutor in math and english.

I understand that math can sometimes be a very ambiguous subject for many people. For instance, a lot of times it just looks like things can magically happen without a very good underlying explanation, and to overcome that I try to really break things down and pull things apart, sometimes with real life examples, physical examples and even just showing the student exactly where the "magic" part is coming from. My tutoring experience has helped me to realize that not all students understand things the same way so it is inherent that you can teach using different methods especially when it comes to subjects like math. I have a bachelors degree in mathematics which I just recently completed in May of 2015 from Binghamton University. I tutored at the university for 2 years in trigonometry and calculus 1. The list of math topics that my major covered are as follows: Calculus 1, 2 & 3, Linear
