Geometry Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Osborn, MO

I find where the student started falling behind. The key to doing well in mathematics is to find where the problems started and work from that point on. I have taught high school math for nine years and enjoy helping students excel in mathematics. I have taught the following classes: geometry, pre algebra and algebra 1. I have also taught middle school math during sumner school. I really enjoy mathematics and would love to help students not only understand math but like it.

I tutored a fellow student in Finite Mathematics during college for one semester. I earned a Bachelor's of Science in Psychology, working hard to finish my degree in three years. I recently took online classes in order to achieve my Masters of Science in Education. I have worked as a general paraprofessional in elementary schools for two years and a one-on-one paraprofessional for the last year. I have taught sunday school and afterschool church programs for at least three years and am very involved in my own children's schooling. Through all of my work related experience, teaching has been the one thing that I loved and felt completely comfortable doing. I believe that every child can learn, but that they often need individual attention and a variety of strategies and techniques used in order to find the one that fits. I teach most often in an investigations approach, learning thr

Students have described me as a very caring and kind educator. I take the time to explain how and why things are different in foreign languages. In the beginning of the year (or when I get a new student), I take the time out to give the student a quiz that helps determine what learning style they are based off of seven different learning styles. This helps the students learn not only about themselves in my class, but also in others as well. I also use this information to develop lesson plans around the needs of the students. This allows the students to participate in a wide array of learning activities, continue to be engaged, and learn the target language seven different ways. Spanish and teaching have always been passions of mine that I have been fortunate enough to make a career out of doing and using both. I have a bachelor's degree (BA) in Spanish with a teaching certificate and I a

I have two children of my own and understand that all people learn in their own way. I have proven success with helping children find the way to learn that works best for them. Both of my kids are in the talented and gifted programs at school. I am patient but firm and do not like to waste time or money. I love to watch a person figure it out and see the confidence building smile when the ideas finally start to click. My goal is to teach a person to learn on their own, think on their own and realize that they can accomplish anything once they learn how. I have extensive experience in the field of Business Management particularly in Accounting. I graduated from Rockhurst University, a Jesuit University well known for its business graduates. I have owned my own business and worked as an independent contractor for the last six years in the Kansas City area. I have spent time volunteer

After graduating with an Early Childhood/Elementary degree, I took the 3-6 year old Montessori training. I began teaching in a private Montessori school for 5 years. I then worked part time in various positions including substituting for 10 years while my daughters were in school. I was the Director of a Head Start daycare in the inner city which serviced many refugees. For the last 3 years I have taught 2nd grade in a typically hispanic school in the inner city. Teaching has always been a passion of mine. Watching a student light up after learning how to do something is the greatest thing for me. I believe children can learn and be successful but each in different ways. I believe we as teachers must use differentiated instruction to help all students learn. My students learn immediately that I care about them and desire for them to be successful learners. I ask them to do their

My form of teaching is such that it involves the students more than the tutor. I encouraged the student to be able to solve problems on their own. Call me when there is a problem that the student needs help. I love to know what part of the questions they don’t understand and help them to understand. To me interaction with students on particular question and trying to figuring out solutions together are more important than the final answer. I first became interested in tutoring college. Then I started teaching both chemistry and math at both high school and college levels over the years. I have also been involved in conducting labs for undergraduate students at all level in the department of chemistry. I have worked with research intuitions like the Department of Science and Technology at the Ministry of Education Republic of Liberia. I think with this I have been able to deal with stud

I love teaching and working with students of all ages. I particularly enjoy watching a student's eyes light up after catching on to something new. I know all students learn in different ways, but I believe most people learn best when they are relaxed and enjoying themselves. I also believe it is important, especially for math, tasks be completed multiple times for the ideas to really be remembered. I believe making students explain the material to someone else is an effective way to gauge understanding. Most importantly, I truly care about students as people. I participated in ROTC and majored in Math and Physics at the University of Colorado. After college, I joined the Air Force and worked in the airfield operations career field. After two years, I was chosen to become an instructor, where I fell in love with teaching. After separating from the military, I substitute taught for
