Math Tutor, Studying Engineering at U of A

I prefer to work one on one if possible, however up to a group of 5 is perfectly fine, because competitions can be made to help improve academically. Also kids/people learn best after making mistake or watching others make mistakes. I am an incredibly persistent guy and will spend whatever time it takes, with no extra charge, to ensure someone passes a class with an A. I have very reliable text books that I use to teach, however I know kids, despise using them so I turn the text into a more practical learning tool.
This is not very professional sounding, however I have helped all of my friends pass classes with As or Bs from 7th grade all the way to the end of high school. I never charged them. I live my life with the hope of changing one persons life each day in a better way. I will do whatever it takes to help someone learn and it makes me happy helping others. I have the highest ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have always enjoyed studying science, especially Biology. I obtained my Bachelors of Science in Molecular and Cellular Biology in 2001. During my undergraduate studies, I tutored many colleagues in various subjects. I also precepted an upper division Plant Genetics course during my junior year. I assisted the Teaching Assistant with experimental set-ups and held office hours so I could meet with students to go over course material in preparation for exams. I obtained my PhD in Pharmacology and Cancer Biology in 2008. During my graduate studies, I mentored four graduate students and two undergraduates during their tenure in our laboratory. During my postdoctoral fellowship, I mentored a community college biotechnology student. She had decided to pursue her BS in Molecular and Celllular Biology at the University of Arizona. I would like to continue tutoring students as I enjoy t ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Teaching comes naturally to me; I believe that everyone has the potential to be successful, given the right opportunity. Persistence, mutual admiration, and effort are the qualities that I bring with me, and they are all that I ask of the students that I work with. My goal is to make learning less of a duty and more of a stimulating quest, so that I may leave my students with the inspiration to continue learning throughout their lives.
As a student, I had the chance to participate in the Americorps program, where I developed and implemented programs for at-risk youth. My programs encompassed but were not limited to, ecology, animal husbandry, writing, reading, and the arts. Since then I have earned two bachelor's degrees, a BA in Education, and a BA in Elementary Education, with minors in communications and liberal arts.

More About This Tutor...

I have earned a bachelor's degree from one of the most well regarded institutions in the world and I have a solid math and science background. For two summers while an undergrad, I taught an engineering course to high school juniors participating in the YESS (Young Engineers and Science Scholars) program. I also tutored a junior high school boy for two years in all subjects. I've tutored classmates throughout high school in all subjects. And since July 2006, I have been teaching a GMAT test prep course through Kaplan.
I really like to tailor my style to each student. I also believe that when it comes to math, students often need as much help getting over their fear of math as they do with the actual concepts. I have had good experience designing science experiments and hands-on projects to help demonstrate science concepts and bring these concepts to life. I was fortunate enough ... read more

I have had experience teaching that is inquiry-based but have also taught in a more factual style with lecture. I believe that each student has a different style of learning, and I am more than willing to adapt to the child. It is crucial for students to understand all the fundamentals of education, so that higher levels (college) of education will be obtained. I always make sure the student understands the material every step of the way so that they will not fall behind. I also believe that the student must take what they learn and apply it. I also believe that by excelling in certain areas of school and improving, this will give a higher confidence to the students that will be apparent in all areas of school.
I graduated with a BS in Biology and a minor in Chemistry. During my college experience at the University of Arizona, I have participated in two programs that allowed me to ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am very patient and detailed teacher. I go step by step when trying to teach a child how to do something. I don't skip steps. If they still don't understand, I don't go on to the next part of the lesson. I make sure they know and understand how to do the first part before I go onto the second part. Also I make things as simple as possible, complexing a subject doesn't do any good when it comes to teaching.
I worked as an assistant preschool teacher for a little over 2 years.I worked with two year olds mostly, but the children ranged from infants to K level. I was responsible for supervising and assisting in teaching a classroom of 20 two year olds.

As a special education masters degreed professional, advocate and behavior specialist and a Board Member and WALK event founder and chairperson for the past three years for the Autism Society of America, you can be sure I believe that all students of all abilities should receive an appropriate education that takes into account their strengths, weaknesses, disability if any and learning style. The key to all teaching and learning is motivation. Teachers are challenged to find the correct motivation for each student and strategies to connect with them by connecting the real world to their curriculum and academic goals. Any child can learn, it is just that students need to be met where they are in life and rapport established to plant seeds of motivation and for learning to begin. We all remember those teachers who were kind to us, made the subject matter either fun, interesting or bot ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been both a teacher, substitute for elementary and full-time for middle school, along with having a career in the accounting and bookkeeping venues. I enjoy people and thrive on their successes. One of my lifetime desires is to not only following thru on the beginning steps, debits and credits, but to help people start a pretend company. My expertise is also with working with diverse groups of people. I have taught juvenile delinquents, and up to 60 different ethnic groups. I have a full degree in Elementary Education, and extended courses for accounting with accreditation for sitting for the EA (enrolled agent) exam this year showing my proficiency for taxes--individual.
It is important to recognize that every individual is unique and learns differently. Some need to hear lectures and others need to be 'hands on' and do the project themselves. I have taught a mul ... read more

I have had an opportunity to teach every grade level from Pre-K through college seminars. I take pride in helping students understand difficult material. Because of my broad experience and my easy-going personality, I am able to communicate with students of all ages and backgrounds and find ways to help them learn.

During the last several years, I have worked in the education field in a variety of ways. I have served as a full time teacher and a substitute teacher. Also, I have helped develop a violence awareness curriculum and implemented it in several schools. In 2001 I earned my BA in Sociology from the University of Notre Dame. Since that time I have worked in the education field and in the social work field.

I do not believe in hierarchy. I think the teacher-student or tutor-student relationship should be one of equal footing and mutual discovery. This means asking questions together and seeking out the fundamental answers to questions. I think all children and adults deserve a place to learn about themselves and the world around them where they are free to ask any question and challenge any assumption. This does not mean I am a push over and cannot create structure in a lesson. I just strive to do it in a way that does not discourage creativity and authentic discovery about themselves and the world.
I attended college at three different schools, on athletic scholarship in two of them. I earned two bachelor degrees, BA in Philosophy and BA in Political Science. After graduating I spent one semester teaching sciences at an outdoor based alternative middle and elementary school just ... read more

I am an excellent tutor and will make sure my students have a thorough and complete understanding of the subject they are struggling in. I have a natural ability to break down and clearly explain the material to my students in a way that they will be able to comprehend and internalize. I believe all children have to ability to learn and master any subject just so long as it is explained to them in a way they can understand; if they are having trouble, the burden falls on the instructor not the student.
