I've been tutoring since high schools in a wide range of subjects, such as latin, algebra II, and biology. The skills you use to teach yourself the material can be directly applied to someone else, especially when you find something does not click at first. I have a number of mnemonics for helping my tutees retain the material they've spent time learning. In college I don't tutor professionally because of time constraints, but I help other students understand problems they may be having difficulty with. I've also had my own SAT tutor and seen different programs and their styles, and I've chosen the one that I find the most effective.

During my time spent as a tutor/teacher I learned that I enjoy helping others acheive academic success. Tutoring subjects can sometimes be challenging because each tutoring session may vary. So, I have learned that, in order to be a good tutor and to have a productive tutoring session, preperation and promptness is always crucial. I understand that learning styles and techniques varies from individual to individual. Thus, having an open-mind is always important in order to accomadate for these variations. I think I am a great tutor because I always do it with passion and I always give it 100 percent. I graduated from UNR with a BS in Biology. I have gained experience in both classroom and on-the-field settings. During my undergrad study at UNR I tutored General Biology, General Chemistry and some basic math for about 2.5 years. Since my graduation, 5/2007, I have successfully wor

As an MBA student, I constantly had to conduct research in challenging fields, write reports, train others and make appropriate recommendations. I have particularly enjoyed carrying on tasks that required teaching others, presenting personal research and challenging specific teaching styles. As a substitute teacher, I have developed my teaching skills and became able to adapt to the different educational level, schools, communities etc. From my professional experience, I learned to be a team leader, to focus on the delegated task, to prioritize and to reward results. I am a parent and I understand that educating our children is a priority. Although challenging, I particularly enjoy working with children, teaching them as well as learning from them. I believe that what makes me a good teacher is my ability to listen, understand a child's outlook on things and my constant focus on ch

Currently, I am a senior at UNR nearing the completion of a nutrition-dietetics major and psychology minor. From a young age, I was driven to exceed academically, which have positively influenced my success in the classroom. Upon completing a rigorous high school schedule(Scholar's Program:detailed list of required AP/honors classes and greater than a 3.5 GPA), I was well prepared for college. I began tutoring in the 6th grade, focusing primarily on math related concepts. Throughout the years, I have continued to instruct various other grade levels in multiple subjects. Personally, I believe my two strongest subjects are math and writing. I thoroughly enjoy teaching, especially the satisfaction of watching a student that was previously struggling start to succeed as a result of your time and instruction. I am an extrovert, personable, intelligent, and am not limited to one specific

I have tutoring in math since my freshmen year in high school. I took AP calculus in high school and now I'm in math 181. Right now I even tutor other classmates that are struggling in math 181. I do my best to help others understand. I love helping other students that struggle. Math is easy and I show good examples so others see it visually. Math comes to me easy and I will show others how to cope with math. I like to help show that someone is there to help them understand.
