Individualized learning/teaching for optimal comprehension

I take a hands on material approach to learning/teaching. I feel that young students learn best when they can physically learn, such as through blocks/puzzles/interactive learning devices and other similar approaches. I try to let the student use their hands as much as I can to aid in their learning process. For older students such as my high school students or their college counterparts I use more direct audial teaching and visual teaching styles. Every person learns differently, so I cater my teaching style to each individual learner.
I started tutoring in my teens helping young children with Autism Spectrum Disorders develop English and Math skills as well as speech therapy and public speaking. I tutored my fellow students while attending Carroll Community College in English 101 and 102 as well as Creative Writing. I then moved on to being a one on one with high school students ... read more

At your pace, on your level

I have always been passionate about communications and teaching. I began tutoring mathematics in High School and during my undergraduate schooling I mentored and tutored introductory university level physics, calculus, chemistry, and organic chemistry. I am currently in graduate school at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine studying Molecular Biology and Genomics but remain informally interested in mathematics and physics.
I adjust to the student/learner as I am told or discover their learning preferences. However, in my experience and research, I have noticed that active learning and discovery-based learning are arguably most effective mechanisms for knowledge retention. Therefore, I make considerable efforts to implement these styles into my teaching.

More About This Tutor...

Although I had a family and worked full time I decided to go back to school and get my advanced degree from Johns Hopkins University. It was a great school and I felt a wonderful sense of accomplishment by obtaining my degree. While obtaining a BA degree from Johns Hopkins University, I was inducted into the honor society Alpha Sigma Lambda, and president from 2000-2002. During that time I tutored adults with problems in basic math skills, reading and writing. Although I did not obtain a teaching certificate - I began my master's degree in Education from Johns Hopkins University in Adult Learning. I moved out of the area before I could finish the degree. I have learned extensive skills from the graduate courses and also from the student teaching that was required during those years.
I have always enjoyed tutoring students. I would like to be able to give something bac ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I work with all children, teaching in elementary and secondary education.I believe all children can learn. Depending on their abilities, I would use different teaching strategies such as collaborative teaching, technology to encourage learning.
Currently, I work as a substitute teacher, teaching math and science at a local public school district. I hold a bachelor's degree in biology and associate's degree in computer network engineering, which provides me with a strong background in math and science. This can be demonstrated by my scores in the praxis exams. My passion is to teach and to help my students succeed.

I received a BS in Molecular and Cellular Biology from the University of Arizona with an interdisciplinary minor in chemistry, physics, and mathematics. My experience after graduating from college is diverse having pursued careers in the military, science, and education. After an honorable medical discharge from the Marines, I worked for several scientific private and academic research laboratories gaining invaluable hands-on experience. My first teaching assignment was at Excel High School where I taught Algebra II honors and Pre-calculus. In addition to teaching at Excel, I volunteered with Prevention Now and City on a Hill’s AIM high program where I prepared E.L.L. students for the Massachusetts equivalent of the DSTP in both math and English. In the past year, I have substituted for Red Clay School District while preparing for Delaware certification. Through all of these experi ... read more

I've worked as a math and science tutor at a local college math lab for about 30 hours per week for the past year. I have good experience with ada and dyslexic students. my favorite subject to tutor is any level of calculus.
I prefer working one on one or in small groupes. I usually ask questions instead of giving answers. I work on a good structure and always emphasis cumulative studying. I like to go over proofs. I like using the board if availble.

I am a candidate for a Ph.D. degree from the University of Delaware. I am majoring in Materials Science and Engineering and thus my education endows upon me a strong academic background for Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry all upto the college level. I have been a candidate with a high GPA all throughout my schooling and college. Teaching is my passion as I have demonstrated being a teaching assistant for undergraduate students in engineering and have a general sense of where students might need help. I also have strong communication skills.
I have been a very patient teacher. Coming from a family of teachers and professors, I understand that teaching is an art and not just a process of talking to people. A mind when open can grasp and absorb everything it is exposed to and I strongly believe that a big part of a teacher's job is to open their students mind toward what needs to b ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have simplified the text material so that students gain a better understanding of the subject matter. My presentation of the material was clear and I made good use of examples and illustrations. I feel it is important for a teacher to enjoy the sharing of knowledge and help people to expand their horizons. While general techniques, skills and methods are certainly important, the enthusiasm created by a teacher is an important characteristic to possess. Students have indicated that they have benefited from my enthusiasm for which I used various sources such as alternative textbooks and the Internet to cover relevant material in the class.
Presently I am a Supplemental Faculty in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at the University of Delaware. I have taught courses in the areas of calculus, linear algebra and differential equations which has given me a very good feel to teac ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

After growing up with both parents in the teaching profession I received my undergraduate degree in business from the University of Delaware. After working in the field of business, I realized the business world was not for me. I felt my calling was in education, just like my parents. That is when I decided to attend Drexel University to pursue my masters in education.
Being positive facilitates healthy relationships and ensures that students are comfortable in the classroom. A solid and healthy rapport with the student breeds a sense of belonging and allows the students to open up to the teacher. A positive atmosphere also makes students want to succeed and meet expectations set forth for the class.

I have been a substitute teacher for the past two years covering all grade levels from pre-k three up to senior year in high school. I am a Master's Degree candidate in Elementary Education at Wilmington University. I enjoy students at every level and am amazed at what a difference a year makes in their development. Previously, I worked as a copywriter and I spent a lot of years writing and editing. I really enjoy the one-on-one or small group approach to teaching, which is why tutoring is so appealing to me.
I like to incorporate a sense of humor in my teaching - I believe when children can relax they are much more open to learning. I am also sensitive to children's different learning styles whether they are visual, auditory or kinesthetic, and tailor my approach accordingly. No two sessions are ever the same! Each student has unique needs and challenges and my job is to work "th ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a supervisor and trainer in the military, it was my responsibility to train the new individuals that came into the job. There was a lot of studying material that I constantly had to sit down and go over with them. We made flashcards, took notes, made up quizzes, did verbal question and answers, etc. I actually used to tutor math in High School when I was in an advanced Calculus class and have helped many friends with their college math. As a grad student, I am writing lots of essays which has really helped me with my English skills. I have a lot of academic experience that I would love to utilize while tutoring.
I have taught a few weapons classes and use of force classes as a security forces member in the Air Force. However, I have never taught classes on a regular basis.
