Computer Programming Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Raleigh, NC

Web manager and usability analyst as well as instructor. I have been asked at various jobs to teach training classes to my peers because of my ability to deliver an easy to understand lesson. I've been told I am very good at explaining a topic that someone has no experience with at all. I am on contract with NC States Computer Training Unit. I try to find the teaching style that is going to work for the student. Are they visual? Do they need to touch to learn? Finding out how to teach them and then helping them learn skills for independent study are just as important as the material.

I graduated from Mount Union College in May 2006 with a BA in History and a double minor in Adoloescent to Young Adult Education and American Studies. Throughout high school I was a teacher's assistant helping with students in class during my study halls as well as working one on one with students for extra study skills. In the past few years I have tutored students in elemtary math, middle school reading and writing, and even my own students before and after school in social studies. I currently teach Civics and Economics which is an EOC course and I have taught this for 6 years now. Throughout those 6 years I have been able to successfully teach my students how to pass standardized tests and overcome testing anxiety. I love tutoring students because through my experience I have learned that one on one time can be really beneficial to all students. During this time I am able to really t

Coming from the influence of a family of educators, I realized early on my affinity towards teaching. In addition to my college degrees, I have been very involved in the 'summer camp' experience. Over six summers, I worked with two summer camps to teach various physical and academic curricula to grade groups K-5, 6-8, 9-12. In graduate school, I was given the opportunity to spearhead a class of undergraduates, splitting lecture time with the professor. I am currently writing my thesis (under review of faculty) to be published on the "Architectural History of NC State University and the Areas Surrounding" it. During my time in university, I have tutored students in chemistry, astronomy, English, grammar, Spanish, math, history and several other general education elements. I believe that information accessibility should be emphasized and placed in bold. I would consider my style personable

I see the role of the educator as a pivotal element in not only academic success, but social and cultural success as well. Therefore my teaching skills often incorporate pockets of knowledge from various disciplines. I also believe that the role of the teacher can also mirror the role of the student, as both teacher and student can learn from each other. I believe that children should be given the necessary tools that foster intellectual curiosity, so as to sharpen creativity and independent thinking. My approach to teaching is not to just impart information, but to impart information in such a way that will lend for students to engage in questioning and realization of answers. Because after all, learning is discovery! My academic and professional histories champion my lack of formal teaching experience. Upon graduating from NC State with Psychology and Journalism degrees in December

During my time at North Carolina State University I gained both teaching and tutoring experience. I spent one semester as the lead lab instructor for a classroom of 30 undergraduates. My duties included teaching students how to implement experimental design methods using statistical software. I also spent a year as a statistical consultant for the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences. Aside from these formal positions I also served as a private tutor. The students I worked with ranged from those in high school taking AP Calculus, to undergraduates taking introductory or upper-level statistics courses. As a teacher I believe that time shouldn’t just be spent dealing with specific formulas or computations but on understanding the big picture. Spending a little time thinking about the background of a problem can help a student apply what they learn to new situations as they arise. It al

Teaching has always played a key role in my life. In 1997 I graduated from Los Angeles County High School for the Arts as both a dance major and an Advanced Placement student. During my time in high school I was selected to tutor my fellow peers in Mathematics, as well as chosen to be a dance teacher's assistant. During college, I continued to teach dance professionally and held a job as a tutor in Computer Programming through my university. In 2003, I graduated with a B.S. in Computer Science with Honors and an above 4.0 GPA. Since then, I have gained work experience pursuing a career in Web Development for top corporations. There are currently huge gaps in the education of our children, which if left unaddressed, cause struggle and difficulties for them down the road, and ultimately in life. I am passionate about filling in those gaps and doing my part to ensure every child or adult is

I have earned my Ph.D degree in Electrical Engineering at the University of Technology in Wroclaw, Poland. For some more years I worked there, where I loved teaching students and doing scientific research. Looking for new challenges I accepted an offer to join College of Engineering at NC State University as a visiting professor. After a few years, when my contract expired, I got a position of Math and Statistics Teacher at Fuquay-Varina High. Kestrel Heights School in Durham was my next place to master my teaching skills at the HS level. I enjoyed working with HS students and being able to participate in their growth. I enjoy teaching and working with HS and college students. For me every student is a different young person, which should be treated individually, according to his abilities and style of learning. A teacher needs to be patient and a good observer to identify the talents an

I hold a MBA and a PhD degree in telecommunication. I have more than ten years of work experience as a software developer/project leader in the highly diverse cultural organizations found within the high-tech industry. Throughout my career, I have shared my vast experience and knowledge by teaching different levels of computer courses. My teaching strategies and techniques motivate students to go beyond theories. I provide proven practical strategies to help students integrate classroom discussions with real life and practical technologies. My diverse multicultural work experience is a strength that I use to help students understand and overcome the daily difficulties in their lives. As a result, my students can use the critical thinking strategies that incorporate the extensive knowledge of the information age. My vision is to encourage my students to achieve a compressive knowledg

My teaching style is very much hands on. I try to re-enforce what is being taught, to ensure that the student understands. Also, I like for the student to see the big picture, that each lesson is a stepping stone and that learning never ends. I am a graduate of North Carolina State University. I believe that my Computer Science degree, has prepared me to tutor students. At North Carolina State University, we took a variety of classes that made us well rounded. During the past 2 years, I have completed training to become a Substitute Teacher, and I had an opportunity to work for a few schools. I accepted most the assignments. They seemed to be pleased with my work ethic and my commitment to education.

When I first work with a student, I like to get to know the method of teaching that they have already experienced from their math teacher. This allows me to know what sort of methods and teaching styles they student has already been exposed to and thus allow me to elimnate strategies that do not work. Being in sync with the student's teacher is very important. I work very hard to make sure that I am teaching them in a way that they can relate to. I understand how frustrating not being able to grasp something can be, so I make a great effort to be very patient. My goal in tutoring is to help the student enjoy mathematics as much as I have. In the time I spent in high school, I tutored several other students in mathematics ranging from Algebra I through Calculus I. I am currently a fourth year undergraduate student at Georgia Institute of Technology. I am studying Aerospace Engineering and

I enjoy teaching children and young adults, and seeing their confidence grow as they learn new things. One of my biggest pleasures is helping to turn that proverbial light bulb on … sharing that moment when someone understands a concept or a technique that they have been struggling to grasp. One of my strengths as a tutor is my interpersonal skills. I am patient, easy going, and understanding. I can connect and communicate with the student in a unique way which fosters a successful learning experience. My Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science was an excellent foundation for a career in Information Technology at IBM. As a programmer, I pursued new technologies to learn about and implement, and a role of team leader enabled me to mentor and teach others about technology. As a certified project manager, I was afforded opportunities to convey my knowledge and experience to others. T

I love working with all children. I enjoy changing my style to fit the specific need of the child and helping them in the way they learn the best. I want to be able to help them learn to become independent problem solvers. I want to help them become an asset to the team even when they are in the classroom and I am not there to coach them through that problem they can use what they have learned and be the best student in the class. I have graduated from North Carolina State University and earned a bachelors degree in Chemistry. While studying I have learned math and science as my forte but have also taken English, Spanish and history courses. I have written many reports in both my major classes and outside of them. I have been involved in many programs that help enhance children learning. I have worked diligently in the community specifically with underprivileged children to give t
