I am not young enough to know everything

I agree with the concept that each person learns a bit differently, and even more so that as a tutor, I should try and find the most effective style for my tutee. My academic career also taught me the importance of setting time limits for each action item; and switching tasks to keep the mind sharp.
You will see from my resume below that I have strong experience in math, science, engineering and computers. It is worth mentioning that I am also skilled in english (5 on my AP World Lit exam) and art (voted most artistic in my senior high school class). I have also tutored at least 4 students in the past, and found it to be a successful and rewarding experience. Katharine P.

Fun & Engaging Experienced Math & Science Teacher ??

I love to teach/tutor math and science and to bring joy and excitement to the learning process. I use a variety of strategies including math manipulatives and kinesthetic movement to help my students understand the concepts and relationships inherent in mathematics. My goal is to inspire your child to learn on their own and to develop the skills to be self sufficient in their math and science learning, and so I hope the time comes when my services are no longer needed and your child is self sufficient.
I am a middle school math and science teacher in a top school district with experience in grades 5th through 8th. I have experience working with a wide variety of students ranging from students with difficulties in understanding mathematics and students with learning disabilities to advanced learners. I specialize in making math relevant, fun and accessible to all learners. I focus o ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I truly believe in education and it’s one of the top foundations of good citizen. I love children and I feel sorry for children who have difficulties in their studies. I am sensitive to the needs of children that I can easily adapt to their needs. Children have different background and learning capabilities, I consider these factors in my teaching. I just don’t tutor I also study their lessons and try to devise the best way I can present a lesson to their level of understanding. Motivation and setting goals for children are some of the ways I can improve their interest in learning. I had been successful in doing this with my previous experience as a tutor for children with learning capabilities.

More About This Tutor...

For as long as I can remember, I have always wanted to teach children and enrich their lives in as many ways as possible. I started helping my mom out when she taught preschool at the age of three. After school during elementary, middle, and high school, I would always go to school and help my mom in the classroom or during the day when I could. I constantly went to school functions and volunteered to help out at the fun fairs that my mom’s school would put on. My professional experiences have also encouraged me further to become a teacher. In high school I participated in two elementary internships. I went to Illinois State University to obtain my bachelor's degree in Elementary Education and learned different teaching strategies and philosophy by observing different classrooms. I have also taught lessons and tutored children in an afternoon reading program. Upon completing my s ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have learned that in teaching physics and mathematics it is important not only to have a grasp of the broad principles and concepts but to see how they are related and build upon one another. Furthermore, I have seen the success in teaching and practicing physics and mathematics from a problem solving point of view and tend to teach by providing examples to be worked upon and solving problems that typify common physics exam questions. I enjoy teaching to people from all different types of educational background and capabilities and see any subject material as accessible to all provided they are taught in a way most suitable to the individual and strive to find that for every one of my students.

A Little Bit About Me...

When I am teaching I am very patient and try to organize the lesson or my assistance in steps. I'll have the child read the problem or question, ask what they know about it, see if they understand the question and proceed. The patient style helps me see what the student's strengths and weaknesses are so I know what they need to practice and focus on. If the child has multiple assignments or tasks I have them perform the more difficult ones first. Starting with the easy assignments may seem like it makes sense but I would prefer that the student have more energy for the tasks they'll have more difficulty with.
During my high school years I would volunteer to help children through various charities and church. When I attended college I became an Early Childhood Education major and volunteered in preschool and elementary schools. During my Student Teaching in Des Plaines I was in ... read more
