My comments on tutoring PSAT : Scored 760/800 on only try; have previously taught SAT prep at Kaplan.

I have 10 years of teaching experience with students in math and chemistry. For 4 of those years I ran a tutoring business in North Carolina working mainly with college prep students needing AP course and test prep help in math, chemistry and statistics. I have also worked as an analytical chemist for 9 years, working in pharmaceuticals and forensics labs. Additionally I have served as an assistant coach for the Ohio math team that represents the state in national math competitions.

A Little Bit About Me...

After graduating cum laude from Miami University in 2003, I began teaching 8th grade at the same small junior/senior high school where I had previously student taught. I worked on an interdisciplinary team, which gave me exposure to all content areas. I began my Masters degree that same year. In my third year of work there, an operating levy failed, leaving me jobless, but through a classmate in my MAT program, I found a new position in an excellent district--larger and more innovative than my previous school. There, I taught 84-minute, double-blocked Language Arts classes: honors seventh grade and inclusion eighth grade. Over the last five years, I have tutored students who were homebound for a multitude of reasons in reading and writing skills.
I am a dynamic teacher who can adapt to whatever it seems the student most immediately needs. While I prefer a more laid-back, go-with-th ... read more

I love to teach and work with students. I believe that ALL students can learn and be successful if they are taught in a manner that works for the student. I want every one of my students to have a positive learning experience and will do my best to provide a constructive and nurturing environment for each and every student to reach his/her potential. My love of learning was greatly influenced by my teachers. I still remember them and try to emulate their genuine love of the material and their love of all their students. Great teachers made a difference in my life and I want to make a difference in my students' lives too.

I feel very strongly that every child has the ability to learn when they are given the right encouragement. While working on my Japanese minor I quickly discovered that finding a method that works for an individual student is the most important part of studying productively. I feel that my fresh, creative outlook will supplement the classroom experience well and offer alternative methods to learning that may not be available at your child's school.
While I have not tutored academically in the past, I have taught my community's equivalent of the DARE program to fourth grade classes for two years and have also taught art lessons to children of all ages.

A Little Bit About Me...

I've worked with both high school and college students, both gifted and disadvantaged students, and I believe that the key to being a successful tutor is understanding your student and how he/she learns. Through my experiences, I've learned how to explain subject matter in a way that enables students to repeat back to me in their own words what I just explained. This is critical. I believe students learn best by understanding first, and memorizing when applicable. I'm able to gauge where my students are in their education and get them where they need to be.
I am a recent graduate of The Ohio State University, where I earned my BS in Microbiology. My strong background in science and mathematics allowed me to tutor students in both chemistry and microbiology during my time as an undergraduate. Being the daughter of an English teacher, my writing skills were further polished by time s ... read more

I am an Ohio certified teacher with 10+ years of teaching experience. I have taught in both public and private schools, in elementary and middle schools. I have tutored and taught outside the tradition classroom in the field of mathematics for grades K-college including General Mathematics, Pre-Algebra, Algebra, Geometry, College Algebra, Integrated Mathematics, SAT/ACT prep, and EMT mathematics. I have edited and contributed to an Algebra Readiness program for a local editorial company and have edited and contributed to a Mathematics Intervention program, grades PreK-8. Currently I am a project editor for the English Language Development section of our Language Arts program.
My teaching style varies as much as the students I teach. My goal is to present material in perhaps a new manner which often means a non-traditional approach to learning. Ultimately I would like for all of my ... read more

Graduating from a liberal arts univeristy with a Bachelor's degree in Biology along with a minor in Chemistry has provided for me an incredibly well rounded educational experience. I have a solid understanding of the the natural sciences along with comprehensive lab experience in anatomy, physiology, organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry, along with other disciplines. As a Junior and Senior I found it very rewarding to help the younger students grasp biochemical concepts.
Since I find Biochemical processes so exciting, it is easy for me to get other students excited about them as well. Many students feel that the sciences are boring and dull. However, when I explain the processes to the students in their own terms instead of the textbooks they begin to realize that it can be fun! The first step to getting a student to understand the natural sciences is to spark some interest. This ... read more

I have taught at 3 community colleges algebra I, II, geometry, and trigonometry. I have 5 years teaching high school algebra and geometry. I am certified to teach in Maryland and my Ohio teaching certificate is pending. I have also edited math textbooks for McGraw-Hill. I have tutored individual students both in the capacity of my regular teaching jobs as well as a private tutor.
I prefer whole class instruction where students work together to determine mathematical knowledge and develop skills. As the teacher, I prefer to facilitate by choosing the lesson topics aligned with curriculum with activities that promote maximum learning by students cooperatively discovering mathematical concepts.

I love working with children of all ages and I believe that all children should have an equitable education. Because of the skills and abilities I possess in reading I have been able to help my own child achieve beyond her grade level and she is currently in the gifted program for reading. Because I am a school counselor by profession I make sure that I always listen to students and help them overcome any obstacles they may face. I believe that with individual attention all students are capable of excelling in their academics.
During my undergraduate studies at OSU I was trained by Americorps to tutor elementary students in reading and math. I worked for two years in the Columbus Public School System helping students that were behind their grade level in those subject areas. In my current high school position I teach a Career Based Intervention class and I assist students with thei ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I really enjoy working with students, especially at the college level, who have not experienced a great deal of success in a particular subject and aspire to do better. I believe that the key to any kind of scientific or mathematical learning is repetition. It is first important to get to the heart of the concept, and see what is holding someone back from understanding something. After that, it is all about repetition, once a student has seen many examples I have found that it will click all of a sudden.
I graduated from Ohio State in June 2011 with a BS in molecular genetics. I graduated with honors and with a GPA of 3.657. I have taken the MCAT with a score of 33 (10-BS, 12-PS, 11-V).
