I have earned two BS degrees one in Chemical Engineering and the other in Mathamatics. I have taught both Math and Science in private schools grades 7-12 for over 15 years. At present I am teaching at a pace school where I work with students one-on-one. I also have tutored students from my church and others over the 15 years. I enjoy helping student overcome their fear of Math and have been able to increase their confidence in the subject. I have a strong back ground in Prealgebra, Albebra 1 and 2, Geometry, Advanced Alg/Pre Cal, and Calculus. I can also handle HS Chem and Earth Sci. My first profession was as a Chemical Engineer working in a lab, and was fortunate that the company moved the work to Texas and I did not move with them. This is because I found my love for teaching. I found that I love working with children and enabling them to learn how to succeed in Math and Science.

I am a Substitute Teacher in Williamsville, Grand Island, Niagara Falls. I have spent the last two years tutoring students on and off, while completing my masters in Mathematics Education. I have experience teaching everything from fractions & decimals to multivariate calculus and differential equations. I make my students work hard, and show them that more often than not they already know what they need to do. I ask questions and help student build off of what they already know, to get where they need to be. I adhere to both State and National standards while preparing students for local, regents exams, AP, and college exams.

I have tutored children in groups and one on one. I enjoy both. However I really enjoy one on one because I feel like I can help a struggling student that my not have the confidence to ask questions in a group. One on one sessions also allow students to express concern about other issues other than academic areas. I believe that If I can increase the confidence in each child, there can be more children striving to do their best academically I am very passionate about helping children learn, and to be a mentor for them. I have three years of experience in tutoring children part time and as a volunteer. I have tutored in the areas of math, history, and science. I will obtain my Bachelors in May 2011.

As a graduate student in SUNY-Buffalo Department of Biostatistics, I'm planning to be a statistical instructor in the next year when I graduate. My undergraduate major is Mathematics and Applied Mathematics which enabled me to lay a solid foundation on the theory of mathematics and statistics. During the past five year, I've tutored college level Mathematics and GRE-Mathematics subject which is designed for doctoral level applicants. I've also pasted two SOA exams, that is, Exam Probability and Exam Financial Mathematics. I have a passion for teaching. My career aspiration is to become a instructor in colleges. I believe as long as the right teaching way is adopted, students can perform well in the field they are not very good at.

I have been a teacher and tutor for over 15 years, specifically in private schools. The first student I tutored (as an elementary student) has graduated from dental school and has his own practice! My background in science and math, as well as human psychology, enables me not only to teach the curriculum, but also to understand those academic areas which are common roadblocks to many students. I am motivated to bring knowledge, model tenacity and give hope to my students. It is a thrill to help a student who is struggling with a subject and see him/her become comfortable and begin to enjoy the academic journey. I have tutored students both with and without learning disabilities. In my 15 years as a teacher in elementary and high school, and as a tutor, I have covered math through algebra and geometry,biology, geography/history, chemistry and physics. I am capable of tutoring college

Education has always been a priority in my life. During my four years as an undergraduate student, I created a major that covered a breadth of areas including psychology,biology,chemistry, math,and physics. I also have a passion for English. I have assisted PhD students in research as well as conducted my own research which has honed both my grammatical and analytical skills. Throughout my college career I have tutored students in the sciences, math, French, and English. I am currently in the masters program at UB for high school biology education and currently student teaching. Everyone has a different style of learning. It is always my goal to find out what style best suits the student. Whether they are vsisual learners, or simply need multiple ways of hearing an explanation, I strive to meet the needs of each individual person. My greatest joy comes from seeing my students succeed.

Mathematics and especially Physics are hard to grasp not because they are hard to understand but because they are hard to visualize. Physics is something that we deal with every day and we express it in a compact form through Mathematics. It is impossible to know everything. I am able to explain complicated ideas in simple terms using day-to-day examples and all I expect from a student is that s/he be wiling to learn. I have a Ph.D. in Theoretical Physics and a strong knowledge in many areas of Mathematics and Physics. I have gained teaching experience from working with college students and in 2009, while a graduate student I earned the Outstanding Teaching Assistant award. During the last seven years I have taught/tutored students in physics, mathematics and statistics.

I found a lot of satisfaction in tutoring in college and felt that I was an effective teacher. My students did well in courses that they had been struggling to pass. I use a step-by-step approach starting with what the student knows and connect to everyday life experiences. This approach works particularly well in subjects like physics or chemistry. While a good test score is the goal, I may teach fundamentals so the student understands the subject. This facilitates learning and memorization. I graduated cum laude from D'Youville College with a BS degree in biology and a minor in chemistry. At D’Youville in 2001-2003 I tutored advanced sciences. The most complex course was Gross Anatomy in which I worked with students on both coursework and laboratory dissection. I also tutored physics and biological chemistry, my area of particular interest. I have approximately four years of

During my undergrad I was taught how to tutor students at the Tutoring Lab where I worked. Teaching students how to think critically is the key to success in any subject area. I found that asking students questions in a systematic way helps build a habit that allows them to approach any situation and come out successfully. I firmly believe in the saying "Give a man a fish; you have fed him for today. Teach a man to fish; and you have fed him for a lifetime”. The goal in education is to teach students how to think for themselves. My source of income all throughout college has been through tutoring either at the college level or at the elementary and high school level. I am currently working on my Master's in Adolescence Education degree which I should complete in December 2008. I am student teaching as well as tutoring at a local community center in Buffalo.
