If you have knowledge, let others light their candles at it.

Good teaching is about listening, questioning, being responsive, and remembering that each student and class is different. At the same time, it's about being human, respecting others, and being professional at all times.
I worked as a elementary teacher in Romania for about 13 years. I used to work differentiate and with a combination of classes. From the training I received, I learned methodics, how to teach math, science, physical education, arts, and develop other skills. I am patient and know child psychology. Don't want to substitute parents who have a great role in child development, I want to become the help and the friend of the kid, the friend who brings an alternative and new ideas in developing and performance.

I have a very broad experience in the fields of chemistry and physics. This was attained during my work experience within the Pharmaceutical industry. This has enabled me to gain an intimate knowledge of research methodology, logical approach to problem solving, mathematical relationships, and writing skills as evident in publications and patents. In my early years I have tutored students from High School to University in Calculus, Chemistry, Physics and general earth science and biology.
I recalled my difficulties in learning difficult subjects, my difficulties are not universal but I draw from them in finding what is blocking the student from grasping certain concepts. I recall teaching my children at a very early age the concept of ratios. I used windows, tiles from the kitchen, a pizza pie etc. This, before going to pencil and paper and it worked. Till this day they know fracti ... read more

I enjoy teaching and working with young adults. I am a Christian and I believe in patients, consideration, and encouragemet. Since I was a chemistry/science teacher, I believe in hands on learning and of course discovery. I brought real life experiences into my lesson plans because I have years of experience as a chemist. I used PowerPoint presentations to entertain and keep the students engaged. I believe in the use of "prompting" to help students arrive at the correct answers and take ownership of the results. My life was changed by a high school teacher who took me under his guidance. He has knowledge, wisdom, and passion for education and Christian values. I will bring, share, demonstrate, and teach these same qualities to you!
I taught H.S. chemistry I & II in the Indianapolis area from 2001-2005. Entering college at Western Michigan U, I had plans on becoming a teach ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I would describe my teaching style as patient, considerate and thorough. During my years of tutoring, I have learned to individualize my approach to student and subject material depending on the former's individual characteristics.
As a graduate of an excellent college (Columbia) with a major in mathematics, I feel that I am well trained for the position of mathematics tutor. I have over five years' experience with tutoring of high school and college students in various branches of mathematics, including algebra, geometry, trigonometry and calculus.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a BS in chemical engineering. I have 13 years of applying engineering and project management principles in the automotive plastics industry. A key to my success is influencing people by explaining "why" and "how" something should be done to develop partnerships leading to increased cooperation and advocacy.
In my career in automotive plastics, I coached or taught manufacturing principles to improve quality and efficiency. My demonstrated success is due in part to my efforts to educate and coach operators, engineers and managers to understand the basic principles of chemistry, math and engineering to buy into a logical course of action. I have also greatly enjoyed my voluntary participation as a youth football coach. I have coached 8-12 year olds the last 5 years. It is very fulfilling to demonstrate and coach new skills to children to develop an organized team.

I graduated from Calvin College in 2007 with a Bachelor's of Science in Mathematics. My experience in tutoring ranges from fourth grade math to calculus and college level math. I have tutored in formal settings with set schedules as well as impromptu homework and study sessions. All of my tutoring experience is in mathematics.
Since every student learns differently, I find that the best teaching style is to explain concepts in multiple formats, whether oral explanations, diagrams and pictures, real-life examples, or algebraic formulas. Students can learn through practice, memorization, concepts, or a combination, and I have learned to adapt my teaching approach into what works the best for the individual student.

Everything starts out with passion. My passion is to help others when they are in need. When it comes to math and other subjects, I'm very capable. I graduated high school as a Salutorian and graduated college with a Magna Cum Laude.
Everyone learns through seeing, demonstrations, examples, and practicing. If one demonstration or examples won't work, a second or third demonstration or example is needed and it may have to demonstrate differently. I'm very patient when it comes to teaching. I'm good at being creative about finding ways to teach someone so that he or she can understand.

At the University of Tampa I earned a BS in Biochemistry. While completing my degree I became knowledgeable in many areas of math and science. I also gained skills in grammar while writing research papers, lab reports, and essays in various classes. I worked in the academic center for excellence on campus for two years tutoring fellow students in chemistry, biology, genetics, and mathematics.
I love to help people, and I thrive in relationships with others that leave a meaningful impression on both the giver and the receiver. I personally have always tried to achieve academic excellence, and I love to assist others in doing the same. I am a good listener, patient, easy going, and understanding. I recognize that all students learn differently, and I try to tailor my teaching to the individual student's learning style and needs.

I worked as a substitute teacher for a charter high school in St. Louis, MO directly out of undergrad. I taught most subjects including Biology, Chemistry, Algebra, History and Language Arts. I feel comfortable in my ability to teach most subjects and have no issue working in difficult classrooms as I have grown accustomed to such environments working in St. Louis.
Being no stranger to difficult classroom settings, I understand that ideal teaching conditions rarely exist. I enjoy to challenge of encouraging more distracted students to learn, and possess the compassion and patience to work with most students. If a teacher can earn a student's respect, which comes easier for a younger instructor such as myself, then positive reinforcement has a much greater impact on that student's motivation to learn. My experience teaching lends the skill to gain student's trust in confidence ... read more

More About This Tutor...

A student does not benefit from having their teacher do their work. I find that modeling a concept once or twice suffices. After that, a student is best served by having their teacher guide their mental processes so that they become accustomed to the mode of thinking that either results in the correct answer (in a quantitative subject) or a strong, well-reasoned argument (in a qualitative one). Such guidance must be based on the individual student's interests and aptitudes.
In the past four years as an undergraduate, I tutored in virtually every area of my expertise: English, creative writing, mathematics, and physics. As a tutor in math and physics, I helped students understand both the theoretical concepts and the practical applications that they needed in order to thoroughly grasp the subject. In English and creative writing, I served as an editor on every scale, from helping st ... read more
