Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Satsop, WA

I attempt to answer questions and explain concepts with as much detail as possible, while letting students discover answers on their own. I try and let the student arrive at the answer as independently as possible. I explain concepts using technical terminology, lamen terms, analogies, examples, pictures, videos, or drawings, etc. My educational intetests lead me to complete a wide range of subject-disciplines in Mathematics. At the South Puget Sound Community College Math Center, in an open classroom setting, I tutored up to ten students an hour. I also tutored privately for several years around that time, and in March of this year began tutoring again. I'm an expert tutor in the following subjects: elementary math, pre-algebra, algebra, geometry, and SAT prep. I'm also experienced with elementary education, grammar, reading, sentence structute, punctuation, etc. As a tutor, my goals

I have taken the ASVAB twice, once in high school and again right before I enlisted.

I have a hands on teaching style with the ability help you understand how to come to the right answer through logic and reasoning. I believe that memorization is NOT learning, and that teaching WHY an answer is correct is more important than the answer itself.

My teaching style is fun and down to earth. I like to mix humor with each lesson because I feel if my students are laughing then they are learning. This technique has proven to be very affective. I've worked as a web designer and technician for more than 10 years. My experience has afforded me the opportunity to meet some very interesting people including one of Microsoft's original Excel programmers. The advent of the Internet was a paradigm shift for me on many levels and I enjoy helping others experience the same.

I was barely 17 when I founded a one room school in the remote mountains of Hainan Island where I taught all subjects and all grades. Thus began my love of teaching. As the Cultural Revolution waned, I returned to the mainland and continued teaching while I finished high school on my own and earned a BS in teaching Chemistry. My career progressed through high school, community college until retirement teaching Organic Chemistry at the University of Guangzhou. In America I teach Mandarin language and Chinese culture to students from primary grades to soldiers. I am currently enrolled in a MEd in Mandarin Instruction taught jointly by universities here and in China. I love all my students.

I believe that no learning occurs without relationships. I strive to connect with all my students. I am a passionate, charismatic, and resourceful teaching professional with a devoted interest in students’ cognitive and social growth. I seek to motivate and inspire children, as well as create a fun and challenging learning environment. I have very high expectations of my students and they quickly learn that they can achieve any task set forth with hard work and dedication. I have been an elementray school teacher in Texas for the last 8 years. I have primarily focused on reading/language arts, however I do have 3 years of math experience. The schools that I have taught in had many struggling students, and I was known to be the teacher that could help bring those students up to grade level.

I recently graduated from the Evergreen State College with a degree in mathematics. My other fields of study included chemistry, computer science, and physics. I have numerous hours of laboratory experience to support my in class and text book understanding of the materials covered. I've been a tutor at TESC for 3 years now working with students from all walks of life and working on any scientific material I've had any experience with. I believe that whenever I'm working with a student they have the capacity to learn and internalize the material. I believe that the student can learn the material. My method of mathematical and scientific instruction is based off the Polya style of teaching where the instructor guides their students by questions and reviewing the known information. Thus the student's questions drive the student towards the answer desired. I find great personal reward when

Calm and empathy, able to make the student arrive at a solution themselves through a logical thought process. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providing a constructivist approach to learning. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. A few good educators can make a world of difference in a child's education. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives. Although I lack experience teaching, I have a complete understanding of calculus and the physical sciences to offer. I have a BS in Biology and have 14 years experience in analytical chemistry. I have taken 2 years of calculus and would enjoy tutoring for it very much.

My style is to try and present the matertial in a framwork that students can relate to. So if I'm trying to get a financial concepts across to someone I try to think about what this will mean to the student and how they will use it in there work--answer the question of how it relates to the outputs of that individual's job or life. I think I do this because it's how I learn best. I taught high school religious education for approximately six years. This required relating to students, some of whom were reluctant to be there. This required preperation as well as flexibilty to adjust to what worked and what didn't work. I taught financial analysis for decision making while at Weyerhaeuser Comapany. Students were all levels of the comapany from senior maagement to entry level people. I was part of the team that developed this course work. As a part of rolling out standard company
