The Heart of Mathematics

25 years teaching various age groups in mathematics, fitness and martial arts Math subjects include algebra, statistics, calculus, trigonometry, logic, discrete math; I can tutor any math subject in K - Junior year of college. When students turn to tutoring, they often allow the tutor to do their thinking. This is counter productive to learning. A tutor is a coach, as well as, someome who shares their knowledge and skills. Learning math requires building neuro network connections in the brain. Anyone can learn math, at any age, but just like exercise, the mental muscle must be built with hard work. Learning how to learn sometimes is the first step. I take a diagnostic approach to tutoring. It does no good tutoring algebra is a student doesn't understand numbers and arithmetic. Likewise, a student must have a working knowledge of algebra before they can be successful in ... read more

Following this, I worked as a teacher and Tutorial Coordinator in a deaf school for four years. I instructed middle school students in all subjects but tutored all age and developmental levels. I currently work as a behavioral therapist and help students with autism and other developmental disabilities using ABA therapy and have been doing this for two years. I look forward to helping your child achieve their ultimate potential!

In 2005 I graduated from the University of West Florida, earning a BA in psychology with a 3.5 GPA. During that time I was vice president of an on-campus meditation group that lead people in meditation and relaxation techniques.

I have excellent proof-reading/grammar/writing skills and an understanding of APA and MLA formatting.

My teaching-style is rigorous yet kind. My students say that no one has ever criticized their writing and thought so thoroughly and constructively. I'm known for my patience working with students with foreign-language backgrounds and other disabilities such as a lack of attention and focus. I learned from my professors at Swarthmore College (and a few at Penn) how to project a non-B.S. style, since kids tend to intuitively realize when their teacher has no idea what he/she is talking about. Coming from a family of teachers and professors (who have also been my teachers), I'm confident that good teaching is in my bones. I never use technology just for the sake of using technology.
I became a published author of game reviews for a computer magazine at age 15. I worked at the University of Pennsylvania in Chemical Engineering under an Army Research Office grant, then as a software dev ... read more

Both my parents are educators and have instilled in me the fundamental importance of education. I enjoy working with children and seeing them succeed on their own terms. I am willing to work diligently to see a child meet his or her educational goals. I believe that a comfortable learning environment makes learning fun for a child and also makes material retention longterm. I also encourage critical thinking and personal relationships to the material.
Having moved between English, History, and Anthropology during my undergraduate years, I've surveyed quite an extensive portion of the social sciences. I have earned a major in Anthropology and a minor in History. The workloads for these courses included several 50+ page ethnographic reports in addition to the basic course curriculum. I've previously worked with children at the Kids on Campus program at OWC, teaching Songha ... read more

Although I achieved my bachelor degree in Biology and life science, but I always had a strong back ground in Math and physics. I tutored math while at college and also while I was recieving a certification in Business management from Oxford university. Teaching Foreign languages has enabled me to expand my knowledge of grammer and writing skills.I enjoy volunteering and mentoring at schools in order to make a difference in a child's life.
Education has always been the top priority in my life. I strongly believe that there is a hidden jewel in every child that needs to be found. Each child has a special and unique way of understanding and learning. It has been my pleasure to work with children in different school districts who needed to be challenged whether in their own grade level or at the gifted center. I have been tutoring and mentoring children to achieve their goals for the ... read more

Though I graduated with a BS in Secondary English Education, I have tutored and worked with students from elementary to secondary levels. From 2003-2008 I taught English and a little Spanish in both public and private schools, endeavoring to give my fullest and best to teaching all students who came across my path. Teaching in a U.S. public school and at a private institution overseas introduced me to a variety of students from different backgrounds, learning styles, and study habits. I have tutored and given instruction in all areas of English, grammar, literature, writing, English as a second language, and Spanish. Though not currently teaching, I hope to continue helping students achieve their goals and dreams.
Variety is good! I enjoy working with students of all backgrounds, personalities, and academic levels. I have come to realize that we learn differently. What works w ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have always loved working with children, in any capacity. Tutoring has not only combined my skills as a teacher but allowed me to work one on one with students in a way that is not possible in a classroom setting. I have had great success tutoring students of all backgrounds and academic levels because I strive to know them as individuals and find what works best for them. It is my belief that strong self-esteem is key to academic performance. Being genuine and providing continuity in instruction are elements of tutoring that I have consistently displayed throughout my years of experience and it has made all the difference for my students and for me.
During and after completing my undergraduate and graduate degrees, I spent eight years as a volunteer tutor and three years as a paid tutor. I worked for Sylvan Learning Center in Melbourne, Florida and, most recently, as an AVID tut ... read more

I have a Bachelor of Science in Special Education – Specific Learning Disabilities and added an Elementary Education certification just to have the flexibility to move within these two fields. I have worked in both the public and government school systems. I have worked with preschool up to twelfth grade in a variety of educational setting. At Sylvan Learning Center, I tutored children from elementary to high school. Furthermore, I was also a Site Director for an after school day care program.
I enjoy working in both special education and elementary education. It think it is important to set a child up for success by doing what is needed to aid that student. Weather it be modified lessons or guided practice with the student so he/she can eventually work independently. It is important to teach skills and tips/techniques the student can apply to be able to complete the assignment on ... read more

I began tutoring high school and college students in 1986. I have 6 children of my own who I have raised and taught science and mathematics. I worked 2 years as an adjunct professor at the University of Florida and was a volunteer instructor at Brigham Young University. I speak Japanese fluently and am semi fluent in German.
My style of teaching mathematics, science and Japanese is PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE. It is only through solving problems (for mathematics and science) and practice (for Japanese) that this knowledge becomes ingrained in a student so that they are confident to move forward.

My teaching style is really one of encouragement, love, belief, knowledge, honesty and respect. I believe that children need to know that you are truely concerned for them before they really want to know how much knowledge you can dispense to them. As an elementary student in the 4th grade I had a reading deficiency and was reading on a 1st grade level. It my parents and tutors that gave the encouragement to continue trying and the self-esteem to know that I could do it. They all believed in me and it was through their belief that I began to believe in myself. This lesson has stuck with me throughout all of my education. Additionally, I have always struggled with ADD. My parents chose to try and redirect my energies and teach me ways to do the same. All of these struggles in life allows me to gravitate to the student who is in need because I know that I can be an example of someo ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

While putting my now seventh grader son through school, I have learned I have natural ability, desire and passion to teach, especially math, logic, statistics. I easily apply cases to the real world cases for easier understanding. I also discovered I have a simple driven mind for logic. I earned my Bachelors Degree in Computer Science/Computer Information Systems and should graduate from University of Illinois Chicago with my Masters of Engineering Degree at the end of 2010.
I know how and I love working with children. So far they all reciprocate positively. I believe I should use my education and experience along with my desire to transfer my knowledge to children who want and need to develop a solid, stable background in basic math, statistics and engineering.
