More About This Tutor...

My teaching philosophy is very material and audience dependent and because of that, it is very difficult for me to provide a general and universal approach. It acknowledges the fact that people have different attention spans, learning processes, academic backgrounds, and life experiences. I also individualize information sharing based on questions and body language. I constantly monitor the on-going class discussions, homework assignments, and review sheets to optimize the learning process. At times, I am aware parents want their child to get by while in other circumstances, they want in-depth study of the material, beyond what is covered in class.

My comments on tutoring SAT - Math : 800 on Math II Subject Test 800 on Math portion of SAT

Depending on the subject, I utilize from my own academic career tools that I found were the most effective and most successful. More than willing to pass on my knowledge, I pledge to do my best in delivering the information in a concise manner that gets straight to the point.
Experience: Standardized Testing Scores: ACT - 35 SAT - 2300 SAT II Math II - 800 SAT II Chemistry - 800 SAT II Biology - 790 5's on all AP Tests listed above. I've been tutoring for the better part of two years. Through that time, I have gained an earnest understanding of what it means to be an effective mentor. I stand by my belief that knowing the information and teaching the information are two entirely different things. When I tutor, I use techniques that get directly to the heart of the information. I primarily tutor ACT/SAT prep, Math to Calculus III, and all the Sciences. I am ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I would consider my teaching style as hands on. I love to work with children and know that I am giving the confidence to learn. I believe that every child has the ability to learn if they are given a safe learning space to explore their potential. I believe that being an educator is the greatest gift that I could give to anyone in need.
As a college graduate, I have earned a bachelor's degree in Economics, with a minor in Statistics. I have 2 years in a professional financial position. Along side of my finance career I assisted a friend of mine in the academia field. I assisted in creating lesson plans, grading papers, writing tests, and team building activities. Throughout my academic career I have always succeeded in math. I have always had a love of numbers and would love the opportunity to share my love and help others. I would greatly appreciate being considered for this posit ... read more

Physics is a challenging subject and it requires understanding of concpets, application of mathematics and anlytical reasoning. My style is to help students learn how to catch fish rather feeding them fish. I give emphasis on helping students develop their own reasoning, so that they can become independent learners.I usually explain concpets first and teach them how to apply these concpets for problem solving. Once they are good at understanding concpets, problem solving becomes easy. I have found that student mainly have difficulty learning concepts so i spend good amount of time in making them understand concpets by asking stimulating questions and finding their misconceptions.
I have PhD in theoretical physics, and Post-doctoral expereince in physics education research and applied physics. As a gradaute student I have taught for five years several undergradauate level courses su ... read more
