Logic Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Savannah, GA

I taught university chemistry for many years, especially the math-heavy courses. After retirement, a friend asked if I would assist a home-schooling family in the sciences. I embraced the occasion, and increased my clientele substantially by word of mouth. Since then people have been seeking me out. Now I am ready to make a second career at something that I love - watching and helping young minds develop. I use the heuristic style - teach a little; now you try it! The student learns best what they learn from within. At my English boarding school, that is the way we were taught, and it worked. Also, I show them different study methods to see what works for them. I have read widely on psychology. Early on, I assess a student's best learning mode - visual, aural, spatial, numerical, verbal, etc., and play to it. While being active in drama I learned how to 'read' the hear

As a student, I was gifted in math. I went through school rarely scoring anything lower than a 95 in math courses. I routinely tested in the 99 percentile on standardized test, and as a 6th grader test showed I was already on the 11th grade level. I finished several college math courses with a 105 average. I started tutoring math in January of 2001. I have tutoring from k-12 and college students also in courses that include basic math, pre algebra, algebra, calculus, geometry, trigonometry, and SAT math. I have remained involved in math after finishing my degree in 2001 because I love mathematics. It has always been my passion, and I enjoy helping others achieve success in their courses. First I write down the rules for students to use as a guide to solve problems. I believe the old saying "repetition is the father of learning" is very true. As a student in college, I had a professor who

My main goal is to help the student throughout the journey of reading and understanding what the problem is asking and then deciding which solution is faster and more optimal. I always help my students focus and carefully explain to them the topic at hand. I have a lot of patience explaining many things to senior citizen

I graduated with a double major from Fairfield University where I was involved with volunteer groups that tutored middle school aged children from surrounding areas. Over the years I have also spent time as a nanny and have been in charge of homework and school projects. I am confident that my nurturing and energetic personality is the perfect combination to engage children to want to excel. I truly enjoy working with children and would love to go back to school and obtain my Masters in education. I feel that each child has their own way of connecting to education and it's a magic moment when you, the teacher, find and help them utilize that connection. I am calm and patient, bubbly and outgoing, creative and responsible. Most importantly, I love helping people and being an individual that can make a difference.

While attending Columbus State University, I volunteered by tutoring 2nd through 6th graders at the local Columbus Community Center. During which I also maintained a 3.00 GPA and graduated with a B.A. in Finance. While in college I found math to be my best subject and the area seemed to come to me as though it was second hand nature. In college, my degree required classes such as college algebra, statistics, quanitative analyze, intermediate accounting and financial analyze. I recently graduated on May 10th 2010 and enjoy reviewing what I have learned and I find tutoring as a appropriate method of choice. Since I've been tutoring, I have a saying that you already know what you know, so let's not worry about what you know but worry about what you don't know. I believe that everybody can relate to any subject if they can relate the subject to something the individual finds interesting. I

This past year I taught middle school math at Southwest Middle School located in Savannah, GA. This past school year taught me a lot in regards to how to better help both on level students and students whom are in need of extra help. I really enjoyed this last year of teaching, and can't wait to start my next year. I prefer teaching students using many hands on activities, but I understand that not all students learn the same. In my classroom I try to have different types of learning mediums to help reach the many different learning styles that exist.

I have just graduated from Savannah State University with a BBA Accounting. I graduated at the top of my class, valedictorian! My GPA is 3.96 on a 4.0 scale, one B!!. I informally tutored my classmates in several subject matters including accounting, math, and general business subjects. My teaching style adapts to the individual needs/understanding of the student. I ensure the student has a fundamental understanding of the underlying concepts, which enables them to better understand a concept's application.

I have an adaptable teaching style. Teaching is most effective on the individual level. On the rare occasions I have been able to work one-on-one with a student, I am able to approach the material in various ways to best fit that student's needs. Most students in today's society are visual learners. Visual aides usually work the best with these students. When these students don't grasp material, usually it is because they are not able to conceptualize it. However, if you can assist by showing, the student gets a jump-start into comprehension. When i teach material, I do not simply teach What the students need to know to solve a problem. I teach higher-level thinking to allow for the students to dissect problems and understand why and how solutions work. I have a BS in Middle Grades Education from Georgia Southern University. I am certified to teach both math and science. I have worked

As a Mathematical Sciences major, I was encouraged to development a strong foundation in applied mathematics. In addition, I also minored in Biology, as a science related minor was required for my program. I have learned many writing skills due to many research papers, lab projects, and mathematical proofs. My experience at Armstrong Atlantic State University certainly has prepared me to help students in need of a tutor. During college I noticed that every student absorbs information differently. I believe that in order to teach effectively, a tutor must not only understand which way a student learns best, but also provide an appropriate environment in which the student feels comfortable. I enjoy working with children of all ages and it is my goal to ensure that each child receives the best education possible. I believe a child's education is the most important factor in determining thei

I'm a graduate of Georgia Tech '87 with a Masters degree, since then I've worked with numerous Department of Defense contractors working on projects ranging from Image Processing to Missile Simulation. I enjoy math and like to involve myself with bright young minds by planting a seed that someday will blossom into outstanding scientist. Although my teaching credentials is somewhat limited, I thought I'd challenge myself with this new endeavor. I believe that kids learn best when they have incentive, whether it is something they relate to or something they find interesting. I believe few will find homework interesting, unless it is relatable to their daily lives. I like to facilitate the process and let the child make his/her own discovery with minimal intrusion by the instructor. Self discovery is more satisfying than using a force fed method of rote learning.

My teaching style is compatable with the child's learning style. If they need visual instruction then it is visual. My style is mostly facilitator or demonstrator when tutoring. this is because the child needs you to show them the process more so that demonstrate what they know. Most children know some, just not enough to comprehend the entire process. when this happens, then I become a facilitator. After receiving my Ed.D in Curriculum and Leadership, I decided to stay in the classroom. I currently instruct 4th and 5th grade students in Social Studies, Science and Math. I have taught Math to elementary students for the past 10 years. I believe that every student can learn, however each student is unique in that they learn differently. Some times finding that unique method is a challedge. If you like teaching as I do, that challedge is not hard. The joy is in watching the chil

I currently am employed by the Chatham County School System as a long term substitute and as a Math Resource teacher. I was picked up this years by East Broad Elementary School to help many students to pass the CRCT. I have references letters from the Principals and several math teachers at the same school. I amd will soon be graduating from Armstrong Atlantic with a Masters of Art and Teaching, with concentrations in Math and Science Middle Grades. During the past few years I decided to change career paths and work with children on the educational level. My teaching style, is to find the way the child learns best. Math can be taught thru several different methods or strategies. I really enjoy children and have found that it is just a minor thing or so that causes them to not like math, but when they see that there is more than one way to solve problems they change their minds. I reallly

I love having students learn through a hands-on approach and incorporating as much "real-world" scenarios in my teaching as possible. If students are unable to associate with what they are learning, they are often incapable of really understanding the concepts and retaining what they learn. I also think it's very important for students to have fun while learning so that they will invest the time and effort into continuing education. My formal experiences as an educator began as an intern at Hawk Mountain Sanctuary where I educated visiting students on natural history and biology. This was when I realized how much I enjoyed teaching and the mutual learning environment. Since then I've had the opportunity teaching at the middle grades (full-time teacher at a local middle school), high school (through a fellowship at a local university), and college level (as an instructor at a local univer

I just have two years of teaching experience in my country ( Sri Lanka) for advanced level students in Pure Maths and Physics. I have joined the management team for the leading table ware manufacturer . Even in the past few years I have teached few high school students Algebra , Claculus, and Matrices Quadratic Equations and Trignometric functions. I have studied Physics , Chemistry and Applied Mathematics for my Bachelor"s degree in University of Colombo in Sri Lanka I am so reluctant to teach my students to solve problems directly . First I like to understand students knowledge .I try my best to get what exactly they have gained in past years , And try give them some confidence about what they have learned in past. And give them my plan and targets with the time line. Try to make students to learn themself and suporting to improve thinking.
