Patient, Effective Tutor for Any Subject, Any Age, Any City

May I be a personal tutor for you or your child? I have been successfully tutoring for over 12 years. I have some glowing letters of recommendation, and among the highest ratings in this region. I graduated with honors, Summa Cum Laude from Case Western Reserve University, where I made the Dean's List. I also earned a Provost Academic Scholarship for my excellent test scores, including 780 in SAT mathematics and 34 in ACT mathematics. In addition to teaching for public schools, I currently teach 20 private sessions each week, 1st through 12th grade, as well as college students and business professionals. I have also served on the faculty at Cuyahoga Community College. I am patient, friendly and many students tell me that I explain concepts more effectively than their teachers. I am available weekdays or weekends, days or nights, throughout the entire year. Best of all, my rates are ... read more

My comments on tutoring Earth Science : I have a solid background in physical and earth sciences. This includes the basics of physics, geology, atmospheric, and planetary science.

I have earned a "Bachelors in the Science of Mathematics" degree, graduating from Lake Erie College with a 3.82 GPA. I have also taken several college level chemistry classes. A list of relevant college classes I have taken includes: Calculus 1,2,3, Differential Equations, Discrete Math, Linear Algebra, Abstract Algebra, Intermediate Analysis, General Chemistry and lab 1,2, Organic Chemistry 1 lecture only, Quantitative Analysis (chemistry with lab), Geology 1 with lab, Physics 1 with lab, Intro to C Programming, and Philosophy.
Patient and pragmatic, as well as empathetic. I will help the student decide what they can do, what they want or need to be able to do, how to get there, and coach them along the way.

I love teaching and enjoy the field of education. I believe all children can learn and succeed. I want to change the academic mindset of our children. I have encountered students that do not have the passion or desire to excel. I feel that I am a very good teacher and I have made an impact in my students’ lives, however I can make an even bigger impact and change if I continually assist students in their quest for their dreams and aspirations.
I have been blessed to successfully earn a BA and MS in Biology. My degrees have allowed me to develop and enhance my analytical and technical skills in an area that is critical to the success of our children. I have had extensive experience developing and aligning curriculum, and training teachers. I have a passion for education and helping students also develop their skill and mindset to succeed in this world. I have several years of tutori ... read more

Earth Science is one of my top subjects!

I've worked extensively while attending college tutoring both as a volunteer in public schools and as a personal tutor. While tutoring in a public school setting I worked both with individual students and small groups in math and science classrooms. I am a registered and licensed Life Science Educator through the university I attended and additionally I am a registered and licensed Environmental Educator through an independent program with the state of Ohio. My hours are flexible as is the subject I can assist with. I am fully trained in educating students between grades 7-12 in both Life Science (Biology, Physiology, Anatomy, Zoology) and Earth Science (Environmental, Geological). Once I am given the scope of content that needs assistance I am fully willing to help with test prep, general study and knowledge retention, or developing unique ways to test and enhance your child's knowle ... read more

I am currently pursuing my Master's Degree in special education at Kent State University, and have a Bachelor's degree in Hearing, Speech, and Language Sciences. I have not tutored before, but I have previously worked in various settings that allowed me to work with students in trying to achieve their Individualized Education Plan goals. My experiences have covered many different subject areas and daily functional skills as well. I have a lot of experience working with children with disabilities, which is what I am currently studying and the area in which I am pursuing a Master's degree in at Kent State. As a graduate student I am required to take coursework in all content areas including reading, language arts, math, and science, with a specific focus in reading.

A Little Bit About Me...

I obtained my BS in Business Management from Clemson University in August of 2009. During my time there I was a member of the Varsity Swimming team where I competed against world class athletes within the Atlantic Coast Conference. Balancing life as a student-athlete created a unique and challenging college experience for me. As well as athletic experience, I served as an Assistant to the Director of Community Relations at IPTAY Collegiate Club for 2 years. Within this position I was in charge of a variety of volunteer events for student-athletes, many of which involved tutoring and mentoring elementary aged children. I plan on beginning my pursuit of a MAT in Early Childhood Education this May at Kent State University.
My teaching style is extremely hands-on. I have found through my coaching and swim lesson experience that I relate well to kids and by approaching the situation in ... read more

I present the curriculum in which students of all learning intellects are recognized as individuals and provided with the important tools to make cognitive, social, and physical development possible. I believe that children should be immersed into a student-centered, active, and hands-on learning environment. I create a learning environment that encourages positive social interaction, active engagement in learning, and self-motivation. I use a variety of instructional strategies to encourage students’ development of critical thinking, problem-solving, and performance skills.

A Little Bit About Me...

Teaching has been my passion since a very long time. I believe having knowledge about a subject dose not mean that person can teach well. A teacher needs lot of other very important qualities. Teacher should be capable of making a subject interesting for his/her students. Teacher needs to include lot of fun activities in the teaching so that a particular subject does not seem boring or hard. I strongly believe everyone can do everything, there is nothing difficult in this world for any student to achieve, the key lies in how well the teacher can communicate with kids and explain in a fun way ! I have been teaching since I was 20 ! My first teaching experience was tutoring all subjects to middle school kids.

During my high school years, I was able to work with a young child through his first three years of elementary school. I tutored the child through basic math, science, reading, and various school projects. I obtained invaluable teaching experience on a personal and professional level. During college, I declared my major in Microbiology/Pre-med. While taking all these difficult classes, I tutored many other students in the subjects of Microbiology, Organic and General Chemistry, Physics, Physiology, Calculus, and Biology.
I enjoy tutoring children and adults because it makes me feel like I'm able to give a piece of what I know to someone that has trouble understanding that particular concept. I particularly enjoy working with children because they are sponges for knowledge. They understand concepts as long as one has the patience and does the hard work to help them understand.

I believe that each child learn differently, and as such, I have found the best way to teach is to cater to each child's individual learning style. In working one-on-one with students, I feel as though it is crucial to build a trusting relationship in which the child feels comfortable stating whether or not the teaching style I am using is working for them. Being only 22 years old, I feel as though I have an advantage, as I am close enough in age to the students that they are able to almost see me as a peer, but I'm also old enough for them to respect me as an adult.
It was in my senior year at UConn that I learned about a program called City Year that enables young people as myself to work within the realm of urban education. As a City Year corps member, I was able to work both inside the classroom and after school with a group of 22 ninth grade boys at Glenville High School in ... read more

As a driven student & business owner, I've had ownership stakes in different businesses. Educationally, I have had a natural love for mathematics (BS) & life sciences (short of minors in chemistry, physics, and biology). As my involvement in business increased while still in school, I've been able to truly understand having to choose between the daily rat race and the daily demand of academic pursuits. As a musician and guitar teacher, I understand the balance between demonstrating theory and the importance of impromptu emotion. As a teacher, I like to relate to my students in ways that preserve, maintain, and promote integrity, face, intuition, desire to succeed, and encouragement.
Teaching, or the best teachers, are required to have a certain undertanding that not just anyone has. I think teaching is a decision that demands patience, excitement, encouragement, care, and the l ... read more
