Patient, Results-Oriented, and Dedicated!

I use effective practices, strategies, and resources to inspire and enrich each student's learning. Direct instruction, workbooks, visual aids, computers, math manipulative, hands-on activities, mini-labs, student-centered discussions, one-on-one tutoring and small-group instruction are used to honor various learning styles, students' needs and goals, as well as to ensure they are active learners. Students participate in small-group instruction, hands-on activities, mini-labs; may use computers for further enrichment and technology-integration; analyze words and stories; make real-life applications to concepts being presented; and customize their own learning environment through student-centered and teacher-led discussions and enrichment activities while receiving caring and effective support and guidance from me!

Hardworking, Efficient, and Productive Tutor

I'm a young student who enjoys teaching. It's the responsibility of the teacher, to cause the subject to come alive for each student, and that is what I love to do. Only through that, can the student fully grasp what the teacher is offering to them. Both the teacher and student or students can greatly benefit from each other, when things are done in the right fashion. The teacher perfects his or her skills and the student also gains whatever it is that he or she wants to learn.
Strategic and fun

I always look forward to tutoring new people becuase I not only get to make a difference in their life by helping them master what they're struggling with, but I also get to learn about people and different learning styles. I view tutoring as a way to help others while improving my interpersonal skills. I value all the skills I gain from tutoring because they will be assets when I become a physician. Working with all ages from kindergarten to college has taught me patience and how to conform to different people's needs.
I graduated from Vanderbilt University in May 2010, and I am currently applying to medical school. In high school and college, I tutored in math, science, English, and test prep. Math and Science are my favorite subjects, but I also have much experience with tutoring English and grammar. I have also tutored people preparing for tests such as the ACT, SAT, and Gatewa ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Throughout many years of tutoring my peers and underclassmen, I have obtained several techniques to help students study effectively. Depend on each individual student and their study habit; I can adjust a specific agenda and curriculum to help strengthen their weakness and excel their strength. I am very patient and fun to be around. For me learning is a combination of fun and hard work. I tend to make the material easier to understand and to captivate their interest in the subject.
I’ve graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Biology in 2009. My Biology coursework has centered on theory, problem solving and critical thinking. I have taken multiple Biology, Chemistry, Physic, Math and Psychology classes which have enabled me to improve my knowledge and understanding of the subject. I have also taken various computer skills, writing, and test taking classes that can prepare s ... read more

From second semester freshman year I have tutored mathematics and chemistry. First it was at the campus learning center at Westminster College, then I went on to pursue a graduate degree in chemistry at Penn State University where I found that I like to teach more than I wanted to be a PhD Chemist, I was a teaching assistant for both Physical Chemistry Lab and General Chemistry for non-majors. It was this teaching experience that led me to tutor for the PSU Ag Science department in both chemistry and mathematics. I have also volunteer tutored at State College High School.
I try to put the difficult concepts of mathematics and chemistry into words and experiences that the student can understand. In the words of one of my tutees I teach "Barney-Style". In other words I talk in words they can understand whether I'm tutoring a 4th grader or a college student. It is my goal to mak ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been a mathematics and science tutor for the last ten years. As a former mathematics educator at the college level I feel that mathematics or any other science is possible to be learned and comprehended by the student through the use of real life examples. Moreover, in my time as a math and science tutor I always asked my students to devote patience and perseverance whenever they are starting to learn a new concept.
I like teaching and tutoring students in mathematics and science. I always believe that science and mathematics require innovation and creativity to fully understand the concepts. Throughout my years of teaching and tutoring I have developed effective techniques to make an immediate in a student's learning.

More About This Tutor...

I have a visual and hands on teaching style. I do believe that students learn better by doing labs and seeing demonstrations, not by just hearing lectures. My students thoroughly enjoy my demonstrations and labs. My goal is to do whatever it takes to ensure that my students are working to their maximum potential.
I have 5 years experience as a Biology, Chemistry, and now, a Physical Science teacher on the high school and middle school levels. I have gained a valuable understanding about the needs of our young people. I believe that all students are capable of learning anything, some just have different learning styles. I have met with different students and tried (quite successfully) to gear my lessons to the needs of all students. In my classes, it is my goal to make sure that every student understands the lessons.

More About This Tutor...

I am Paine College graduate. I earned a BS in Mathematics and Computer Science in 2006. While at Paine College I took variety of science classes including organic chemistry, atmospheric science, and cell biology. Since graduating, I have spent two years as a high school math teacher. I have also tooken graduate work in mathematic and math education. For the past eight years I have also work or volunteered as a personal math tutor.
Teaching is something that is not meant for everyone. I am fortunate to say that my academic success is due to my ability to break down any material to a basic ideal and teach the materials in mutiple ways. The most important thing I do is make the material appeal to any individuals. Once these things are established, I believe student can effectivly learn and grow.

Teaching is a passion to me and I have a sense of accomplishment when I share or give back what I have been privilleged to acquire in my studies of sciences and math. I teach by example. For instance I will know that my students have understood when they perform a return demonstration. I am a nice guy and work with my students by establishing a sound relationships based on mutual trust. I believe that a sound understanding of basic math and science skills would have a great impact on the future accademic lives of individuals as well as in the real world when they grow up. I have extensive experience in working with children of apparently all age groups.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a multidisciplinary-trained individual with comprehensive scientific background in mathematics, chemistry, biochemistry and molecular biology. Having obtained two advanced degrees, MS in Chemistry from Yale University and MS in Biotechnology from Georgetown University, I developed an extensive theoretical knowledge, demonstrated excellence in preparation of research papers and laboratory reports, and advanced my effective teaching, communication, and interpersonal skills. My tutoring career started back in high school when I volunteered to assist my peers with their mathematics and chemistry homework and prepare them for exams.
My teaching maxim is that the ability to explain a concept to other people means you have truly understood it. Hence, after I have taught a concept to the student, I encourage him/her to explain it to me because I strongly believe that this approach fac ... read more
