I love helping students understand Math.

I received my BS degree in Math Education in Spring of 2001 at Florida State University. While at FSU I worked in the Math Help Center for three months. I taught math for two years and decided to choose a different career path in Actuarial Mathematics. I am currently finishing my master's degree at Florida State University. For two years I tutored math at all levels at Sylvan Learning Center in Tallahassee. In that time I learned different things related to presenting the math in a way that can be understood regardless of the level of the student. Mostly I focus on explaining the most important steps of a particular skill and then guiding the student to developing their understanding of that skill.
I like to break down whatever skill I'm teaching in the simplest form at first. This means explaining the concept of the skill in a way that the student can understand what it is ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have a good experience of tutoring hundreds of students over a decade period of time. I have tutored from first grade student to bachelors' degree students. I have formally taught students from grades four to ten for six months as a science teacher. Recently, I helped my wife in Anatomy and Physiology I and II and Lab and College Algebra. She got straight A's in them upgrading her GPA. Most importantly, my tutoring helped my students to uplift their self-esteem, confidence and to accept learning as a process which can be made more pleasant and simple. :)

I taught an Introductory Geology lab for 2 years. I have been tutoring out side of that for the last year or so. I have tutored elementary students all the way up to college students. One of the elementary students I tutored had ADHD. The subjects I have prominently tutored are math and science. Although I am confident in English as well.

Teaching has long been a passionate calling of mine. I am motivated to help students of all ages to succeed academically and to overcome learning obstacles. I am patient, and simply cannot be discouraged in my efforts to make any topic understandable and enjoyable. Math is my particular favorite. I love seeing confidence grow in students as they build their math skills and discover that problem-solving is fun! I believe that every learning setting, whether in a classroom or a tutoring session, should be a safe place that is free from fear of failure. It's important to me to establish a good rapport with my students, and I find this generally comes naturally because I truly care about their success.
I have a B.S. in Computer Studies and have spent the last 19 years as a computer programmer. I have great tech skills, including the Microsoft Office applications. I am proficient ... read more

I own my own science consulting firm and like to dedicate a certain percentage of my time to education and public outreach projects including teaching, mentoring, and tutoring. I have taught high school and college students on and off since 1986 and have had several students go on to VERY successful careers, perhaps one of the best ways to evaluate ones ability as a teacher. My most recent success (2006-07) was a 7th grade C and B student who had straight A's after only two months of working together and finished 7th grade with straight A's. Her confidence level increased dramatically (as noted by her family and friends) and she now has set her sights on Harvard as a real possibility someday.
I tailor my teaching style to the student. Throughout the years I have recognized that each student has a different way of learning and I make it my goal to adapt to them, to try to reach them ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe patience is key when teaching difficult concepts. I also strive to present ideas from varied perspectives. For example, many mathematical constructions can be understood either geometrically, algebraically, or analytically. If a student has trouble with one type of explanation, presenting an alternative technique often leads to a deeper understanding of the material.
I have extensive experience tutoring college students in mathematics and physics. I have acted as a teacher's assistant at New College of Florida and worked in the TCC math lab. I have also tutored these subjects privately.

I have a BS in Administrative Management Systems which is now known as Office Administration. I recently got my MBA online from the University of Phoenix. I have experience in all levels of math. I have taken several college math and accounting courses. I have excellent research and writing skills due to the extensive amount of papers that I wrote in graduate school. I have tutored for a year or more in the areas of math, reading comprehension and writing.
I love kids and would like to see all kids meet their goals. I allow kids to express themselves and see what level they are on so I will know where to start working. I build on what they already know and use it to reach the next level. All kids can learn if you make it fun and interesting. I had a tutor when I was in school and she found ways that were interesting to help me solve different problems. After a couple of weeks I tho ... read more

I firmly believe in students succeeding in school and life. Having a love for learning and school is the key to good grades and a healthy attitude. I don’t believe any child wants to fail. Quite the contrary, children want to succeed. When students fail, it is because the system failed them and not the other way around. I believe the key to teaching kids is to help that child experience immediate success so they can gain self esteem during critical elementary school years. Next, areas of strength need to be identified and emphasized while weaknesses need to be improved. Meanwhile homework cannot be treated as an isolated event, but should be incorporated into the learning strategy.

I achieved an AA degree at Florida Community College at Jacksonville. I am currently continuing my education at Florida State University where I am pursuing a Bachelors Degree in Biology. I will graduate in Spring of 2010. After, I will continue to Dental School to become a dentist.
I enjoy teach with all different age levels. Most recently, I taught 4th grade science through the FSU Teach Program. It was fun and really showed me how to teach students and make the lessons engaging and fun. Its important to keep the child focused. My goal is to make sure a student learns something new everyday that she/he will remember.

I have a knack of finding where the weakness is in a student and I try my best to help improve it. Communication and patience are some of my greatest assets. Motivation and continuous encouragement is what I provide to each student I tutor. The goal is to make the student comfortable with each problem and make sure they have a clear understanding of each concept of the subject area. I prepare steps for my tutee to follow. Relating a problem to something they are familiar with sometimes can help bring a better understanding to what needs to done. Satisfaction comes in knowing the students has improved and is striving for more perfection.

Due to the influence of my parents, who are both math educators, I have always wanted to teach. My first job was on the faculty of a teachers’ university in China, where I taught computer science courses. In 1996 I came to the United States to study mathematics, and earned a Master's degree from Indiana University. While I was studying at IU, I was a teaching assistant and also tutored during the summer. Since then I have taught Algebra I, Algebra II and Geometry at a high school, as well as Intermediate Algebra and Finite Math at the college level. In addition, I have experience as a classroom instructor and as a tutor with Kaplan, Inc.
I love to help people of all ages with their math. It is really rewarding when you show someone how to solve their problems, and then see them smile and feel relieved. I am friendly, considerate, thorough, and easy going. My belief is that when t ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is mostly form-fitted to each child. I assess what level they are at, how quickly they learn, and what areas they need help in or should strengthen. I cannot stress the importance of patience when it comes to tutoring children, which I have an abundance of, having taught various ages. Also, having studied psychology, I understand that children are very sensitive to negative feedback. I have experience in how to give constructive criticism to children and how this can only encourage them to do better.
Although my bachelor's degree is in psychology, my interests throughout my education have been to study children; how they learn, how they think, and what I can do to help them better themselves. Because of this interest, I have tutored children for a couple of years some years back, and was recognized for my efforts. I have excelled in mathematics, English, and p ... read more
