Chemical Engineering Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Pittsburgh, PA

I believe that a learning disability does not preclude an individual from mastering the content of the science or math course. My holistic approach combines reading and study skills with a presentation of the course content. My students have pursued higher education including doctorates and I assist my students in finding employment. I like all age groups and I communicate well with them.

In physics, chemistry, and mathematics, I believe it is very important that the student must learn the fundamental principles and concepts for long-term retention and application. Therefore, my teaching style will be based on: "DID YOU GET IT?" and not based on "rote learning" or "getting the result and moving on." I believe that a bright child should not be deterred from learning and achieving the fullest depth of his or her potential because of the shallowness of the perceptions of society.

I am currently employed as an airline pilot and have earned all teaching certificates from the FAA. My approach to teaching is more of a "why" approach. It is more important for students to know why something is or works rather than just how. This approach works well for middle and high school students.

I have found that many of us vary widely in learning styles. Some are visual learners, others are audio learners, and still oth
