Disregarding my history, ethics, and religion expertise, my main reason for applying is my confidence in my capabilities to teach English. Basic parts of speech, syntax, grammar, organization, rhetoric, and multiple genres--from correct usage to specialized purposes (such as academic papers, business, text for oral delivery) have been mastered. In terms of mathematics, I taught GED, which covered most basic functions; however, I am a humanities person. My preferences are in the areas where I have spent most of my time.
Genuine, personal interest in the child; establishing rapport; establishing the student's mastery level, then building from there (instead of an arbitrary line which creates anxiety); affirmation of every step of progress/success; recognition but careful use of errors in non-judgmental, constructive correction; ease in backing up for review when needed; positive ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have an engineering background with a BS and Masters degree in Electrical Engineering. An engineering degree requires a significant background in math and science. While in college I had such a love for math that I took math classes as electives and became a math tutor for college math. My most recent experience is that of an Instructor in math and science.
I convey to each student a never give up attitude and show confidence in their ability to understand the material. Each problem will be explained to the student and I will encourage every student to ask questions. After the student gains confidence in working problems together then I will have the student work a similar problem by themselves to confirm their level of understanding. After the student works the problem I will go over it and correct any mistakes in their work .

More About This Tutor...

I work best with individuals who are self-motivated and determined to succeed. I am the kind of teacher who responds to questions with questions. I understand that a lot of students are just looking for a sufficient answer, but this will not help them understand the material when they are required to take an exam. I am a firm believer in teaching through example as it is the most efficient way to learn the mathematical sciences. Those professors who had the most profound impact on my academic career were always willing to show me various strategies to arrive at the same answer. Therefore, I strive to teach the methods of problem solving as they have widespread application in all of science.
As a former academic scholarship student at Western Kentucky University, I have a keen understanding of what it takes to succeed at the highest level even under immense stress. Learning mathemat ... read more

Description of teaching style I feel that it is important that I, as the teacher, can present the course content to my students in an organized and meaningful way that will allow them to make the connection between the various strands of Biology, Chemistry, or environmental science. It is important that the students learn the basics of these major fields not as isolated facts, but as a coherent whole.
Summary of experience I have been teaching for 26 years here in the US (California and Kentucky) and overseas (Egypt and Hungary). I have taught introductory biology, chemistry, physical science, and life science, and AP courses in chemistry, biology, and environmental science. 95% of my students have scored four or above on the AP exams. I have sponsored students in national competitions, and I have also prepared teams for the Kentucky Envirothon competition. I have sponsore ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a very diverse background range from English to science. My jobs require me to understand complex topics so that I can convert them into concepts that are understandable by lay audiences. I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Humanities. I am finishing my Master of Science in Entomology at the University of Nebraska. My unconventional background is what fuels my desire to learn about science. I have a solid understanding of grammar as evident by the more than 300 trade letters, papers, and articles I have authored in my career. I have tutored numerous people in mathematics, biology, and science writing and journalism. That is my way of paying back all those people who taught me what I know today.
I use the scientific method of teaching. My style is Socratic. I believe, as Rene Descartes did before me, that human knowledge is innate, including our ability to learn and use language. ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I recently graduated from Eastern Kentucky University where I earned my Bachelor’s degree in elementary education teaching. While earning my degree, I logged over 800 hours inside the elementary classroom teaching and observing the practices of experienced teachers. I have experience teaching pre kindergarten through fifth grade.

More About This Tutor...

I am passionate about teaching the natural sciences to students and others who wish to learn. I have been in situations in both my undergraduate and graduate experiences were I have had to mentor and provide assistance to students in a number of ways, including tutoring. These experiences have developed me into a patient and understanding person, which is how I would describe my teaching style.I understand the difficulties that students may face when trying to grasp difficult concepts and that some students may require more time in order to comprehend these concepts, especially scientific concepts. I am dedicated, when teaching, to ensuring that the student understand the concept that I am teaching and its application.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe in developing a holistic attitude towards each child and catering an individualized program based on their unique needs. Some children may truly only need help grasping a certain concept, but another may need help with homework, test anxiety or poor study habits. I have developed a variety of ways to help any child recognize their potential through a combination of strengthening their academic abilities while simultaneously improving their habits and attitude toward school work. I am also a strong believer in learning through a combination of interaction and traditional resource methods.
I have work with children in a non-profit/education/recreation capacity for nearly 10 years. Most recently I acted as an education director for a franchise tutoring company and spent a portion of everyday working directly with the students and meeting with parents to discuss their progres ... read more

Great Question. I have been in classes where I found learning a challenge. This is what makes me unique as a teacher. I build a relationship with the student. I do my best to not only explain the material, but how they can possibly use it in the future. I also have the best patience. I will go over something over and over again, searching in my own mind for a different to present the material so it sticks.
I have always been a good teacher. I scored very well on the SAT exams, and I have extensive tutoring experience. I scored in the upper 10 percentile on the Mathmatics portion of the SATs. I also have been studying non stop for the CPA exam. I would love to pass on knowledge to someone else. Tutoring is rewarding.

I've worked with children in various educational and tutorial capacities over the past years and have a firm belief that every child’s capabilities as a student are connected to the capability of the teacher/tutor to understand the needs of the individual student. I have a strong belief that with patience, persistence and positive reinforcement that every child can do their best.
I have six years experience working with children of all ages in an educational capacity. I worked as a literacy tutor and I taught autistic pre-schoolers in the public school system. I also recently returned from teaching English (ESL conversation, reading and comprehension, writing and grammar) in South Korea where I worked and lived for eighteen months. I am now currently working as a substitute teacher in the public school system teaching all ages.
