Calculus I Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Rock Island, TX

As a child, I struggled in school and found learning to be difficult and demoralizing. In middle school, I was fortunate enough to have a teacher who, through positive encouragement and persistence, helped me realize my true potential. As a tutor, I attempt to bring this attitude to all of my sessions. Instead of giving students answers, I feel it is my responsibility to not only teach them the content, but study skills that will help them be successful in all classes!

I think it takes a lot for one teacher to reach all of types of students who are all at different levels of interest in the subject being taught as well as at different levels of understanding. However, I feel it is the teacher's responsibility to give them all equal opportunity to learn. It is not just about grades and assignments, that is just the means to an end, but it is about learning. In order for the students to learn, the teacher needs to be passionate about the students as well as the subject that is being taught. That will instill in the students a desire to learn and understand. In having a science background, I have not only learned laboratory skills and reasoning skills, but I have learned how to increase efficiency, communicate in a clear manner, and write in a way that is direct and clear. I enjoy learning, and I instill that passion into my students as best I can.

My first objective is to achieve the results wanted by the students and their parents. In addition, I want to share my appreciation for the subject. It’s important to understand the students learning style and accommodate it as much as is practical. This way the student can take ownership of the learning and be successful as a self learner. A good teacher not only helps a student to master material, but also helps the student understand the process of learning, so that learning is not solely dependent on the teacher. I have an engineering degree and have worked in the Oil & Gas industry for over twenty years. My engineering degree gives me a background to tutor in areas of math and science. I’m also a lifelong learner which is important if you are going to teach others. I have been a team manager for Destination Imagination (creative problem solving) with teams from elementary to

I am a Cougars graduated and I have a bachelor’s degree in chemistry and minor in math graduating with A's in both areas. During college I tutored a lot of math courses from basic to upper level of calculus. I can speak a little Spanish and am fluent in Vietnamese I love to work with children. I had 2 of my own. I believe children can learn if you show them the direct way; as a math or chemistry tutor I use some easy techniques that children can learn and remember by; but basically just show them by examples. I believe that you have to understand the material well then explain to them the easy way to remember. With my experiences and education I can help them pass their class or move up one letter grade
