I believe each child is unique and has potential to learn and understand. Each child has its own way of learning.My goal is to teach the students the way they can understand the concept of math and science and why they need to understand the concept this in practical life.Where we have to apply all this concepts in real life.My theory with the students is to start with simple problems and when they attain mastery in it then challenge them with difficult problem. To ask them questions what they think and how they can slove it. I am Master's in organic chemistry from India and after my education I worked around 4 years in Industry as quality control chemist, which enabled me to understand apllication part of subject.I moved to USA in 2002.

Many of my previous jobs have surrounded helping others. Whether that was through tutoring and teaching or customer service. Growing up I also tutored my younger sister and my cousin who has a learning disability. I have always been passionate about helping others, especially through education. Currently, I am pursuing a major in Sociology at the University of California Berkeley in hopes of becoming a teacher for K-12 students and eventually a college professor.

I am a recent graduate from Santa Clara University with a double degree in Economics and Finance. I worked for three years at Stanford University with the Foundation for Education (F4ED) tutoring advanced elementary students in applied mathematical concepts. I am currently working as a research analyst for the Aspen Network of Development Entrepreneurs (A.N.D.E.) as well as co-writing a paper on applied financial concepts with a professor from Santa Clara University. I enjoy teaching students of all ages. I believe the best way for students to learn is by asking questions. I encourage students to think outside the box and ask as many questions during each session. In addition I feel that students learn best when they are able to apply a recently learned concept to a more challenging or different problem. I believe that every student can surpass expectations and reach their full pot

I have worked with youth my entire career and gain a sense of satisfaction from challenging and encouraging them to reach their goals. There is nothing more gratifying to me than working side by side with a student and seeing them succeed at something they did not think they could do. I am patient with my students and create an atmosphere that is fun and conducive to learning. I also hold my students accountable for their progress and lessons and believe that growth does not happen without responsibility. As Plato said, "The direction in which education starts a man will determine his future in life!" I am a patient and effective tutor and mentor. I have a bachelors degree (with honors) from Westmont College, a top liberal arts college in California. In addition, I have 4+ years experience working with youth in educational capacities. I tailor my approach with students based on the

I believe that each student should learn to be in charge of their own education. My goal is to help them achieve that goal. I am not quick to jump in with the answer but can wait patiently for them to work through the problem. Since I learned by a very different method than my teachers tried to teach, I look for a students learning style. If he is not getting the concept, I'll try another or even invent one on the spot. It is such a joy to see the light come on in a student's eyes. I love working with students. One on one is even better than teaching groups of thirty in my book. I also worked ten years as a Physical Chemist where I had to know Math and Physics as much as Chemistry. I have taught Math, Physics, Biology in addition to Chemistry, and tutored in all these areas. I also graded essays for the state of Georgia and so I could sharpen any students essay skills. I have

I want your student to love reading as much as I do. I enjoy empowering young readers to believe they are capable of reading and that reading is a pleasurable activity. I help students develop effective strategies so they can be successful in reading, and genuinely enjoy reading independently. I believe in using a model of positive inquiry, building on what a student can already do well and what motivates them, then moving forward from there. By getting to know what my students are interested in and using that as a starting point for exploration, I have helped students change from being reluctant readers to avid readers. Teaching reading is my favorite aspect of teaching, in part because I have been such an avid reader all my life and I know the potential that can be unlocked once a student becomes a motivated and successful reader. I have taught reading and writing to students Kin

I am a parent to a four year old and a twenty year old stepson, so my teaching and parenting is one filled with patience, toughness but fairness, and lots of humor. I believe that children should talk respectfully, grammatically correct [Student: “Can I go to the bathroom?” Myself: “Well, I don’t know. Do you know how to?’ Student: “I mean, may I go to the bathroom?” Myself: “Yes, of course you may go the bathroom”], and should treat each other with respect too. It’s not easy, and it’s more of a battle some days than others. I have students who feel that they can do whatever they want to, on their own time. I teach that with the privileges comes the work, there is no easy way around it [I work with high 6th graders and 7th graders]. I have worked for over five years with elementary and middle school-aged students; I have also worked with People with Disabilities. I love working with chil
