Effective, caring tutoring from an experienced tutor

I summarize my approach to tutoring with "3 E's": Enthusiasm, Engagement, and Encouragement. I try hard to make each session fun and to engage the student in seeking the solution, rather than just teaching him or her a method.
I have been tutoring in math since I was in Jr High. Initially my students were sisters and brothers, then nephews and nieces, and finally I began tutoring as a second career. My background includes 30 years as an engineer and engineering manager, as well as teaching math at the community college level and volunteering as an adult literacy tutor. I love applying math to real world problems, and I do my best to come up with pertinent examples to help a student learn a new concept.

Competent Math Tutor @UNC Asheville. Have your child excel.

I like to use examples and cater my lessons to what the student needs to work on (i.e. homework, test-prep). I also differentiate my style based on whether the student learns best through audio, visual, or kinesthetic means. I am a great listener and am able to identify where the student needs help and how to best bolster their academic ability and confidence.
I am employed as a Math Tutor at a company in Asheville. Before this, I lived in Raleigh where I worked for several distinguished companies as a Math Tutor. I have taught SAT Math prep at Cary Academy during the last two summers and at Roxboro Community School where I worked primarily as a Spanish Teacher.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe in helping people that need help. So in college I began tutoring and started to do a bunch of community service projects. I have two years in tutoring experience. I tutor subjects such as algebra, pre-cal, biology, microbiology, world religion, psychology and the list continues. I have not had the experience in tutoring chemistry yet, I am currently taking organic chemistry and when I get finish chemistry courses that my college major requires I will begin to be a tutor for the subject. I have earned my A.S. degree I am working on my Bachelor's Degree from Clemson University in Microbiology(Biomedicine). GO TIGERS!!
I am open to all teaching styles, people learn in different ways so the teaching style that helps you this best is the teaching style I will use.

More About This Tutor...

I have earned BS, MS, & PhD degrees in Chemical Engineering. This accomplishment required a broad fundamental knowledge of mathematics, chemistry and engineering. Opportunities for teaching, mentoring and tutoring arose during the attainment of my PhD and in the subsequent three-decades of my engineering career. Because I was in a management role during much of this period, I developed strong oral and written communication skills. These knowledge bases and skills have served me well during “post-retirement” in teaching and tutoring college level math, mentoring grade school students, and assisting instruction of both youth and adults in the fundamentals of martial arts.
I believe in the value of one-on-one tutoring, and I actively listen to the student’s questions and responses to uncover any barriers to the understanding of a problem. I depend upon regular review at the beginning ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have completed courses in algebra, calculus, statistics, physics, chemistry, organic chemistry, cell biology, ecology, and other biology related courses all of which require a high math and science competency. I have also performed extensive research at UNCC and graduated with a 3.1. I have also tutored college students in chemistry and algebra on the side.
I come from a family of educators -- a college professor, a principal, an elementary school teacher, and a school counselor and basketball coach. I think all of these members of my family have influenced me in a positive way in regards to teaching. I am a compassionate, patient person and am willing to help when people need it. I have been told by fellow classmates that I should become a teacher. I also have experience in a school-structured summer camp in which training was obtained and a curriculum was followed.

I earned my BS in Biology at a liberal arts school. My education has given me a scientific training that is bolstered with an in depth knowledge of the humanities. Through my education and personal interests I have studied music, poetry, literature, math and natural history. I have striven to integrate these arts with my scientific background. My interests and education have given me extensive training in both math and english; including practice in scientific writing (lab reports and grant writing) and artistic writing (poetry, poetry analyses, and music analyses.
As a liberal arts student, I was taught to pursue the bridge between science and understanding. My education has fostered in me an appreciation of learning, and a belief that comprehension is attainable through multiple avenues. If a student struggles by one avenue, then I believe it is my job to pave another. A student ... read more

Each child learns in a different way. I enjoy finding what works for each child. In the current state of education, children often find themselves burdened with an exorbitant amount of work that seems endless and impossible to conquer, and parents often find their children stressed and frustrated by a lack of comprehension. Learning should be an adventure into a previously unknown world, not a job. I strive to make that possible for each and every child.
As a fellow during my graduate work at Indiana University, I taught undergraduate courses focused on helping students improve their written and oral communication skills. While pursuing a double major during my undergraduate years at the University of Notre Dame, I served as a university tutor, helping students in chemistry, communications, English and Spanish. Additionally, I have served as a volunteer for Head Start, a national g ... read more

I am an encourager by nature, build individuals and enjoy teaching. Very patient, easy going, respectful, creative, and try to apply visuals or explain an visual to assist those being taught to understand the subject matter. Always optimistic and upbeat. Try to share enthusiasm I feel in teaching for those to learn. It is always my goal either in academia or ministry instruction, try to broaden ones knowledge, thinking and thought process. Building confidence is key, once one has confidence and encouraged, they learn more and normally thirst for more. I want to make a difference, to help those grow as individuals and students.

Since childhood, my hunger for knowledge has driven me to study and learn about almost as much as I possibly could. My high estimation of learning has often led me to help others to learn whenever I can. Always drawn to math and science, I pursued chemistry in college and received my B.S. from North Carolina State University in Chemistry in 2002. In grade school and high-school I was always looked to by my fellow students for help and explanation of many topics. This continued throughout college where I gained a job tutoring at another school and also worked at the study labs of NCSU. Science and math are my passions, but I can help equally with humanities.
I begin teaching each tutee by first observing their own approach to studying, listening to their explanations and questions about the material, and indentifying their strengths and deficincies with respect to knowledge of the s ... read more

With the many different learning styles of students I try to be dynamic in my teaching, to adapt to a particular students’ needs. In tutoring mathematics, I present the material at hand and background concepts in a variety of ways (depending on the situation- analytically, graphically, as a real-world application, etc) and then move onto examples. I firmly believe that mathematics is not a spectator sport- trying out problems on their own allows a student to actively assess their understanding of the material. I maintain a comfortable and supportive learning environment when working with students so that they may truly gain understanding of the material.
I began tutoring informally about 15 years ago, by helping classmates in my high school algebra, trigonometry and calculus courses. Since, I have gained experience in group & private tutoring settings and have worked with studen ... read more

I have wanted to work with kids all my life. I love the way that they learn and think, and how different it is from adults. I studied Biology at Warren Wilson College in hopes of becoming a high school biology teacher. While at college, I did over one hundred hours of service tutoring and mentoring high school and middle school students in Buncombe County. Since graduating in 2009, I decided to take a break from school, and figure out where I wanted to go in life. I have been working at a local after school for elementary aged kids. This experience has taught me a lot about working with younger children and patience.
I believe that a great educator is a great learner. I am always up for learning new things, so that I am able to teach someone else my new skill. I believe in a hands on approach to learning. The more that can be discovered by doing is much more beneficial than just re ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that each person has a different way of learning. I usually try to understand the student’s learning style on the first meeting before getting into the teaching process. I am very patient, calm, helpful and understanding. Making sure that the student understands the process of answering a question before moving onto the next is a major characteristic of my teaching style. I understand that every student can perform better if given a very strong base of the subject matter.
I will graduate from college with two degrees, BA in Business & Economics and BA in Mathematics & Computer Science in May, 2010. The experience of four years of college has given me the opportunity to gain extensive knowledge of not just my major but various other subjects. In addition to learning the academics, I have tutored mathematics, including statistics, to the students at Warren Wilson College fo ... read more
