College grad with teaching/tutoring experience; kid-friendly

I have taught private violin lessons for ten years to students ranging in age from 4-26. At the University of Alabama, I taught the lab component to Intro into Biology for Non-majors under Dr. Tom Graham and histology under Dr. Jane Rasco. Through the years I have tutored school-age children in all subjects, although I specialize in tutoring math and science. All of my pupils have shown improvement in their scores, with one particular case bringing a failing grade to a C in one reporting cycle.
I prefer a hands-on approach, especially with science and math. I believe an education is more than memorizing definitions but understanding and being able to apply concepts broadly. I have found children grasp a concept better when they are allowed to explore concrete applications instead of studying abstract ideas. A typical tutoring session would include a review of classroom material, an ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a University of Alabama graduate, I was very driven to achieve a high level of excellence in Biological sciences and math. I hold a degree in Environmental science, which enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of math and science such as chemistry, biology, geology, and geography. In addition, I have learned extensive grammatical skills due to writing research papers and laboratory reports, along with essays in many various areas of study.
I plan to pursue a master's degree in education because I feel the need to help children and young adults know the importance of education. I would love to impact students through learning by stressing the importance of educational learning so that I may make a difference in students' lives.

More About This Tutor...

I love to learn. It has always come easily for me. Throughout my schooling, I realized I was able to understand certain concepts very quickly & in easier ways than taught by the teacher. I found myself helping others understand the subject matter like me. I am patient, helping students to work through many different angles of solutions until something works. Because everyone learns differently, I am creative & adaptive to the student I am working with. I am also very personable while maintaining professionalism & respect. My main objectives are helping the student obtain a true understanding of the subject matter, improving the student's academic performance, & promoting a healthy appetite for learning & the will to succeed.
As a recent graduate from the University of Alabama, I have possessed a passion for learning in hopes to become a doctor. I have earned a BS in Biology and a M ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Being that I am relatively fresh out of college, I can relate to most students on a personal level. In college, I took many education courses and spent many hours in the classroom so I am current on new teaching styles. I can help average students excel and poor students gain confidence through learning. Many students are afraid of math before even beginning. I have helped many students that math is just math. There's nothing to be afraid of.
I have always known that I love math. I hold a BS in Mathematics and enjoy using my knowledge any way I can. Recently, I discovered that I also enjoy English. Particularly, proofreading. Even though I hold a degree only in mathematics, I have sufficient knowledge of spelling and grammatical skills.

More About This Tutor...

As an engineering student at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, I have taken many courses in mathematics, however, engineering wasn't my passion. My true passion is working with young people. As a former Director of Education for the Boys and Girls Clubs of Central Alabama, I have tutored children in mathematics for nearly 10 years! Currently, I am the Director of the Boys and Girls Clubs of West Alabama. My career is based around working with youth and helping children in their problem areas, especially mathematics.
I use a very visual teaching style. Any child can learn how to solve any problem, as long as it is explained to them using practical ways that they can understand. I teach using practical examples and putting problem in real life applications. Once a child understands the how and the why, they become more confident in the work that they are doing.
