My comments on tutoring Entrance Exams : Exams all come down to prep and organization!

I have always approached a teaching lesson as a learning opportunity. Learning is a fundamental skill. If you don't have your basic fundamentals, your student will have difficulty advancing. So, I always start with basic fundamentals such as; note taking, study skills, and comprehension! All sciences demand the ability to link concepts together. Ex. cells make up tissues, tissues make up organs, organs make up organ systems,etc.....! By understanding the make-up of cellular structures and relating that to tissue functions the students can fully understand a subject. This proves true with all subjects. By impowering the student with good base fundamentals, my students find it easier to link concepts together.

A Little Bit About Me...

I like to believe that anyone can learn and understand anything. All it takes is a good teacher and effort. I like to work through a similar problem to the one the student is having a hard time with. Once he or she understands the similar problem, I then ask them to do their problem. If they still have trouble I refer back to the similar problem. Once they have correctly done their problem, we do another problem just like it. We repeat this process until they understand how to do the problems and better yet, understand the concepts and why you do certain things in a particular order to get the correct solution.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that having an education is the most important component an individual can gain. I have educated individuals on a day to day basis throughout life in the areas of Science, Math, and English. I feel that you can never know too much and there is always something new to learn. Learning is an important way to gain experience in life. Everybody strives to learn something different, each learns at a different pace and level making them unique. I believe in being there for a child, listening to their needs, believing in their potential, never giving up, determination, and positive reinforcement. After all, education is the stepping stone in life that lets us succeed and become who we will be in the future.

I'm a hardworking individual and I love to help. But I believe that help is a two way thing. I expect the student to help me identify her or his difficulty in a particular problem that way, I can help the student solve the problem and other problems that might arise. I also encourage students to always attempt the problems and in doing so, they discover their potential if they do it right if not, they learn and do it well next time.
Being a first generation student, assisting students to achieve optimum academic excellence has been a fulfilling and rewarding experience. I have a BS degree in Aerospace Engineering and a minor in Mathematics. I have tutored college Mathematics and Physics for almost 2 years. I also have leadership experience as a former represantative in Student Goverment Association and resident advisor.

A Little Bit About Me...

Having studied the language, literature, history, and archaeology of ancient Greece for my degree, I chose to go to Greece to live and work. For ten years, I taught English at many levels, my students being of different ages and having various skill and test requirements. I discovered in myself a vocation to teach and a talent in making challenging material intelligible and even a pleasure to learn. Specifically, I taught grammar, vocabulary, reading comprehension, composition, and listening and conversational skills. I have also read fairly widely, indulging my curiosity in artistic, philosophical, political and economic areas, all of which inform my presentation of and guidance through textbook material.
I believe teaching to be a matter of enablement. The student's immediate goal is to absorb and understand the material, and the teacher's is to make this understanding happe ... read more

I recently completed my education to be a communication and English educator at the University of Minnesota - Duluth. Through the program I spent a year as an apprentice at a middle school and high school. At these locations I not only observed, but also conducted the classroom a day each week. Also at this time I spent a day tutoring a low functioning reader one-on-one for the entire semester. The following year I student taught high school English and creative writing. In this year I also spent time tutoring after school in all content areas, (English, writing, science, math, study skills, etc.)
To me teaching is about solving puzzles. Each student needs different devices or strategies to learn at their full potential. This is why I believe in experimenting with how class or a learning session is conducted. I pride myself on my courage to try something new and original in ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a diverse background in teaching/tutoring. I have been a high school English teacher and a substitute teacher. Also, I have tutored for agencies as well as independently. The subjects I have tutored include English, composition, mathematics, geometry, and SAT preparation.
I like to use the Socratic style of teaching combined with using examples from historical and current events to convey an idea. I like for students to comprehend an idea through their own effort, guided by relevant questions from me. Finally, I want to instill in students a natural love of learning and curiosity about the world that they live in.
