I am graduating with a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering in May, and my top subjects in the field include Statics, Dynamics, Controls, and Mechanics of Solids. I am a firm believer in the effectiveness of the Socratic method. Rather than tell the student how to solve a certain problem, I prefer to ask guiding questions to encourage them to think critically about the problem and reach the solution on their own. This leads to the student being more familiar with the thought process involved in solving the problem, and leads to them being more comfortable solving the problem independently later down the road. My experience as a tutor began with me helping my fellow classmates with homework while taking Physics 1 & 2 my freshman year of college This was purely for the sake of helping my friends: I genuinely enjoyed helping them learn. I began making work of it my sophomore year of

I am a Mechanical engineer with a very strong math and science background. I used to be part of the Mu Alpha Theta (Math Team), Spanish and French team while in high school and have tutored many fellow students while getting both my undergraduate and graduate degrees. I have participated in the Hillsborough County science fair for the last three years, and have really enjoyed interacting with the elementary school students and teaching them about science. I am a very happy and friendly individual; I will do my best to make learning fun and exciting.

Have been teaching one on one and in classrooms as both a private tutor and a Graduate teaching assistant at UCF for many years. I have worked with students of all levels and grades, improving their math skills and understanding of other engineering-related subjects. I have experience helping students with test preparation and my results speak for themselves. The outcome of the time and effort I dedicate to my students always results in an increase in GPA, confidence and passed exams.

I'm currently attending American Military University, with less than a year to graduate with a bachelor degree in Public Health, which allows me to have a better understanding in health science related subjects. I have learned extensive grammatical skills due to writing research papers. In addition I have experience in teaching, coaching and mentoring soldiers in the United States Army as a squad leader. Each child learns in different ways, and as a Tudor/teacher it is my responsibility to discover the method of teaching that matches a child’s way of learning. I am patient, understanding and provide a constructive approach to learning. All children have the potential of learning; some simply require a different method and approach to grasp the information and it is my duty to provide such approach.

I love the Cooperative learning style which is one of the more successful and popular strategies. In this method, students are organized into teams, and each team has students of differing ability levels. Once they are organized in such a manner, the teacher uses various educational activities to teach a new concept or subject.By placing students of different abilities in a team, the classroom becomes very productive for all kinds of students. They all get this sense of achievement at having mastered the topic at hand and at having helped a classmate understand it, too. Students are motivated to learn more as their contribution in the class is valued and respected, and this can also lead to a boost in their self-confidence. In general, teaching a course as a virtual class requires more preparation on behalf of the instructor than in a traditional course. While in the traditional case the

I like to teach students in a way that they can relate to. Talk to them about their futures and what they would like to be when they grow up or when they graduate. I like to propose real life situations where they might have to or need to use math. I like to get to know them and learn about their interests and help them see how a certain subject could help them. I believe its about getting on their same level, gaining their respect and having them being comfortable with you. I have a proven track record of helping students succeed and having a different outlook on learning. I am a graduate from the University of Central florida in Civil Engineering. Obtaining my degree has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of math and science. In addition I am fluent in the Spanish language. I have over two years of work experience in an engineering environment. For the past year I have b

I have two younger brothers, ages 14 and 15, who I feel have made me that great tutor that I am today. Along with the assistance and support of my mother, we have pushed them to learn at a young age, and more often that not I grew up assisting them from their multiplication tables to beginner calculus. I feel that with constructive support and encouraging educators ANY student can flourish. I am very patient, try to convey concepts in simple step by step fashion, almost how I process it in my mind. I really strive to make a difference in all the young ones who I come across in my life. As a mechanical engineering graduate at USF, I have taken a wide variety of classes in a wide variety of fields that have broadened my horizon. I am currently persuing my Masters degree in mechanical engineering. Also, I have learned extensive grammatical skills as well as writing research papers and la

Students learn best from doing things. I try not to lecture, but to involve the student in the learning process. I can lecture, but I haven't found it to be as effective as other methods. I very much prefer tutoring to classroom teaching, mostly because I am helping people learn what they want to learn, and solve problems they are having troubles with. I have worked part time as an adjunct instructor since the '70s, including 22 years with the Orlando Program of Florida Southern College, and 11 years with Valencia Community College. The later provided me with dozens of short courses in education. I also completed and retired from a civilian career with the US Army and Navy, starting as an intern, and reaching Senior Executive levels. Very recently I have been tutoring fifth grade and seventh grade students attending Lake Highland in Orlando. Also worked with math students wo

Over forty years of experience as an engineer and manager in the pharmaceutical and food manufacturing industries. Last position before retiring was as Engineering Manager for Kraft Foods Latin America. Academic experience includes two years as a full time instructor at the Univ. of Puerto Rico, and part time instructor at several institutions when my engineering career allowed me to. Also, for the last two years, I have been a part time instructor and math tutor at a community college in New York City. I really enjoy teaching and the interaction with students. I pride myself in being able to come up with examples, analogies, real world experiences or whatever is necessary to make a student understand the principle or concept that is being teached. The satisfaction and sense of accomplishment that I feel when the student "gets it" is immensurable. I feel that anybody can be tought anythi

One of the most difficult things about math is comprehending the concept. Many learn through repetition, or visual demonstration. I would think that my tutoring skills involve both. Repetition allows one to get an idea of what they are doing and it also helps develop questions. The questions help to get a full understanding of a concept. Sometimes to further complete understanding of a concept visual demonstration is needed. Based on my previous experiences in tutoring elementary school students, most of the time they really don't know the concept and are just going through the motions. If none of the two strategies mentioned above doesn't work I usually walk through everything slowly and find out where the problem is. In addition to my undergraduate degree in mechanical engineering I am currently working towards my masters in the same field. I am specializing in Thermal Flu
