Logic Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Michigan Center, MI

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.

I am a Mechanical Engineer / Project Design Engineer for a renowned company in the automotive branch with experience in tutoring Math for all grades. My main goal is to demystify Mathematical problems by using real life examples that students can understand, so as to help them grasp and visualize concepts that are difficult to comprehend. Based on the experience gathered during my College years where I enjoyed tutoring friends and classmates in many of my courses such as Mechanics, Fluid dynamics, Physics, Thermodynamics as well as Math, I am also great at adjusting my teaching approach based on you or your child's learning needs.

I love working with students and enjoy seeing them be successful. I understand that all minds process information differently and enjoy incorporating a variety of teaching tools and techniques in my lessons in order to reach all students. I am not afraid to use technology and hands-on learning in order to get a point across and help a student better understand the objective of a lesson. Working individually with a student to get a grasp of their thought process helps me to coordinate my lessons to fit their individual learning style. Over the past four years I have taught a variety of science courses, including biology, AP biology, chemistry, AP chemistry, advanced science middle school elective and a biology methods course at Eastern Michigan University. This vast array of classes has given me an opportunity to work with students from grade seven up through the college level. Not o

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.

Although a senior about 20 credits from my BS, I know I am qualified for this job. My passion for Chemistry rubs off on those around me. With a near 4.0 GPA, I always earn the top score in my class, only once did I get less than perfect on a Science test, a 99%. Students began asking for help. From my first Science course, I helped many students drastically improve their grades. Professors gave my name out to students and I have taught many each term. When my Prof. was going to miss class she asked me to teach instead. My lab reports were always perfect; the Prof. copied them for future classes. I earned the only student research grant. Researching a method to detect pathogen DNA; my work continues to be published. I wanted to excite others as Chemistry had excited me. I teach the material and why it is so exciting. My style adapts to that specific student’s strengths, weaknesses an

Whenever I begin working with a student, I assess their skills and identify the areas of concern. Are they lacking the prerequisite skills for a class they are struggling with? Are they struggling because they need more repetition and review, or because they lack organizational skills? Identifying the area of weakness makes it possible for me to individualize my tutoring to meet a student’s learning styles and needs. My goal in tutoring is not only to target the areas of weakness to allow a student to succeed, but also to help them become more aware of their areas of weakness and strengths. Tutoring should not only help students master the material in their current classes, but also help students develop effective study strategies and problem solving skills that will allow them to complete their work independently, when their tutor isn't there and succeed in both current and future c

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.

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.

My teaching style is rooted in my belief that children learn in different ways and levels. I strongly believe in differentiating my teaching to meet the needs of the students. My goal is to be flexible in my teaching approaches in order to adapt to the learning style of the students I'm working with. I also believe that to properly internalize a concept, students must experience it at many levels including theory, reading, writing, and physical manipulation. As a teacher, my demeanor is to be clear, patient, and interactive. My career as an educator began when I started tutoring during high school. At a tutoring agency, I provided personal and small group tutoring for children ages 4-15 in math and reading. When I decided to pursue a degree in education, I gained experience by volunteering at summer school programs. I worked with diverse groups of children in first and fourth grade, in a

I enjoy teaching groups as well as one on one sessions. I believe teaching in a group can be exceptionally helpful as children have the opportunity to not only learn from their designated teacher but also from each other. I enjoy working with all kinds of children and of any age. Teaching children individually is also extremely rewarding as one can give them his/her undivided attention. I come from a country where education is more of a privilege than a right. This has motivated me to teach since the past few years as I believe an educated nation is a healthy nation. As a person who has grown up in Pakistan, studied in the UK and is now in US, I can communicate and understand different kinds of people. I have taught as a temporary teacher in a school called Education Bay in Karachi, Pakistan. I have also taught at a special children institute for 2 years in Karachi, Pakistan. I also taug

I have a passion for teaching subjects that I thoroughly enjoy. My goal is to convey a love for my subject to the student by their experiencing success and offering the “why” as well as the “how” to develop a deeper understanding. I encourage a more relaxed atmosphere and welcome student responses with a healthy bit of give and take. Over fifteen years of working with four and five year olds gives me a unique perspective that allows me to present information in an interesting simple way that can be understood by the student. During my secondary teaching experience I have taught all levels of math from General Math to Calculus. I have demonstrated the ability to motivate and work effectively with students and administration demonstrating both flexibility and a willingness to take on additional responsibilities. I have been committed to the highest levels of professional and personal

I attempt to determine the best way to provide the information based on the manner in which you want to learn it. If you want multiple examples, I can provide them for you; if you want to be walked through the theoretical background and not have numerous problems, I can do that as well. I want to provide the information in the way easiest for you to learn it, rather than teaching you in a standard way. I have earned my bachelors and master of science degree in Biostatistics, and recently completed my PhD in Epidemiology, a field that is heavily reliant on statistical methods. Statistics is theoretically based on mathematics, which has therefore been a strong component of my education. Since high school, I have tutored students in elementary, middle, and high school, as well as community college, undergraduates and graduate students.
