My comments on tutoring ACT : I have experiences tutoring individuals and small groups in ACT

It is important to me that all children reach their best potential in whatever grade I am teaching. I have been in the teaching profession for 20 years and each day brings something different. Although, I came from a family of medical and science background, I have always wanted to teach and after 20 years, I am glad to say that I chose this profession. My goals are to meet each child at his/her learning level and provide the best education possible. I believe in varying my teaching style to suit each child thier cognitive abilities and grade level as it is my belief that all children can learn.
As a college graduate and a teacher, I have aspired to help students from K through college to achieve their goals and to be the best they can be. Aditionally, I have taught all grades K-12 and have implemented Study skills courses for students in Grades 3-12. Currently I am a Math S ... read more

I Help Students Tackle Math With Confidence!

I bring both personality and creativity to math sessions, and I am concerned with the intellectual and emotional well-being of all tutees/students. I currently have a long list of clients that I serve through one-on-one, in-home tutoring--and have both a high success rate and client loyalty with them.
I have enjoyed the personal gratification of tutoring since high school. Since I was 15 years old, I have shared my knowledge and love of mathematics with people of all ages. I attended Spelman College and Georgia Institute of Technology, where I received my Bachelor of Science in both Mathematics and Mechanical Engineering. I also tutored my peers at these institutions. My goal is to help students understand the foundation and theory behind math concepts, so that they can tackle any math problem with ease and confidence. Confidence is key!

ACT is one of my top subjects!

I am a Mechanical Engineer / Project Design Engineer for a renowned company in the automotive branch with experience in tutoring Math for all grades. My main goal is to demystify Mathematical problems by using real life examples that students can understand, so as to help them grasp and visualize concepts that are difficult to comprehend. Based on the experience gathered during my College years where I enjoyed tutoring friends and classmates in many of my courses such as Mechanics, Fluid dynamics, Physics, Thermodynamics as well as Math, I am also great at adjusting my teaching approach based on you or your child's learning needs.

Teagan Donnell: Young, Aspiring Scholar

I am an eighteen year old female with with a High School Diploma and one year of University behind me. I graduated High School before I was seventeen and a half, one semester early when I was already a young student for my year. As a young teen, I was always a tutor to my friends and was willing and excited to help anyone with any academic difficulties. With time, I took tutoring more seriously and began to be a voluntary math tutor for the Math Department where I was enrolled, Community High School. I did this in my only semester of my senior year and tutored underclassman in everywhere from Pre-Algebra to Calculus I, though I was currently enrolled in Calculus I. I also was a Student Teacher for French I/II in my last semester of high school and that really deepened the depths of my skills in speaking, writing, and reading French. In every class, I am the one to finish first, correctly ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My teaching philosophy centers around encouraging student learning instead of straightforward lecturing. While training students during these years my approach has reflected the discovery that the process of leading students to the correct answer is more effective than lecturing them the answer. I employ various exercises, continuously look for examples outside the discipline, and generally avoid over-reliance on scientific jargon. For example, I once compared the rise of white blood cells fighting an invading pathogen to the way a governor may activate city guards upon suspecting infiltration by spies – a metaphor that may tap into student knowledge of video game scenarios. One student told me that the comparison was more helpful than pages of detailed description of the mechanism of the pathogen invasion and human response.

More About This Tutor...

While I was in college, I worked for my finacial aide as a tutor in all areas other than Math. Once I earned my degree I went right into teaching. After a year, I was hired as a college basketball coach. During this time I continued to tutor our student athletes in thier English work. I also taught the Physical Education classes for Majors. After having my son, I have rejoined the teaching field. I have been teaching 5th-8th grade Language Arts classes. I also teach reading. I feel I have a good handle on how to break down information for a more individualized learning environment.
I have grown up knowing that teaching is a fundamental need for our lives. Both my parents are teachers, and I have always been good at explaining things to others. As I pursued my career choices one of the most important goals for me has been to give others the opportunities at learning that I ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is participatory. I like to ask questions of the student and have them verbalize what they know. This gives me the opportunity to identify possible gaps in their knowledge and to fill in those gaps. I also try to relate covered material to historical events. For instance, when talking about the importance of analytical chemistry, I like to talk about the Marsh test which was developed in the 1830’s as a definitive reaction for arsenic poisoning. In like manner, I like to relate covered material to the personal experiences of the student. Illustrative examples that I have used are the importance of distillation to the alcoholic beverage and petroleum industries, along with how companies like McDonald’s would employ chemists skilled in flavors and fragrances (i.e., flavorists). All in all, I try to make science and mathematics fun and stimulating, as well as informati ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Although mathematics was my college minor, I spent 90% of my 30+ years in education teachingh the subject. Areas taught ranged from seventh grade math through Algebra I, Geometry and Algebra II at the high school level. In addition, I taught algebra and trigonometry as a member of the adjunct faculty at Terra Community College. This breadth of areas taught, I believe, gives me an insight of the difficulties faced by students at many different levels.
I beieve that learning comes about through constant questioning. The student needs to review where they are now and then be led through the new material by small steps. The student then needs to step back and review the connections between these steps. When the student begins to see the logic of mathematics the easier it is to retain the material. I try to provide concrete examples and relate the material to things with which t ... read more
