A Little Bit About Me...

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. I was science teacher for middle school at private school for the year 2008-2009. I am presently working with tutoring company teaching Math and ... read more

I'll Teach your Student to Teach Him or Herself

I have worked as a tutor for 10 years in all subjects, especially focusing on ESL learners. Recently, I have worked in an ESL school (FLS International) with university age students seeking to matriculate into American Universities. Before that, I worked in South Korea teaching English. While employed at these schools, I also work part-time as a tutor- mostly for middle and high school age students. Many of my students struggle with time management, and this is a main focus in my tutoring sessions.
I hate lecturing! I do! This is why my tutoring style is very interactive. I don't like talking AT a person, I prefer to have a conversation. My goal as a tutor is to make subjects interesting, and also to make sure they stick- so you can do well on exams. I also teach study skills in every session, so ideally you won't have to rely on me forever. I try to give students tools th ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe in positive reinforcement and constructive criticism. Many of the children and adults I have worked with have found some inspiration through my way of teaching, which is a very wonderful compliment.
My experience as a tutor has been fulfilling. I started as an educator for children in grades k through 12, developing and implementing education plans revolving around well-being, art and environment. From that I became a tutor in the natural sciences, as well as study and organizational skills.

Being a biology graduate from the UC system and a children’s counselor for the last seven years has equipped me with extensive knowledge and teaching skills. I hold a B.S. in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, which encompasses many other scientific disciplines and mathematical skills. I’ve also learned many grammar and writing techniques from frequent research reports and laboratory essays. After working with children and teens for many years, I have gained invaluable experience in teaching and mentoring for all grades.
I love working with children and teens. I am very sociable and students generally find me easy going and understanding. Every child has the capacity to improve and learn over time; therefore I am very patient and teach through direct practice and repetition. Given helpful techniques and proper guidance, I’ve seen children improve drastically in their schoolwork. I a ... read more

As a tutor I feel it is my job to provide students with the extra help they need in reaching their educational outside of the classroom. I have always been very passionate for nurturing the needs of individuals of all ages: elementary and middle school students, high schools students, college students, and working professionals. I love seeing individuals grow threw the learning process, and am always amazed at how much I learn, as the tutor, from the students, as well. I fully understand that the needs of each student vary, as do the different ways in which each student learns. I enjoy using both out of the box and traditional methods of tutoring to make the learning process both fun and educational.
I have always been very fond of learning; I received a BS from California State University Monterey Bay and a MA from Monterey Institute of International Studies. Both degrees focused ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have been tutoring since high school & I absolutely love it. In 12th grade, I tutored fellow students grades 9-12 at my high school's tutorial center in various math, science, & spanish classes. Every Sunday, I taught my native language, Tamil, to preschoolers through a local non-profit organization. In college, I was involved in the Society of Women Engineers, through which I created & led weekly science experiments for 5th graders. I also tutored math students at a local charter school in grades 6-12 for 2 years. Additionally, I tutored an intro Java class in which I helped students debug their programs & review material for exams. In addition to my experience, my engineering background gives me an edge in tutoring math & science.
Due to my extensive experience in tutoring students of all ages, I am very good at tailoring my teaching toward the specific student's needs. I am ve ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My approach to teaching math and science is to thoroughly prepare a student by first emphasizing the fundamentals. Too many students get "lost" if advanced concepts are taught too soon. Then, once a student is ready, the studies should emphasize the students strengths and interests to the utmost possible.
As an engineer and mathematician I have experience in all areas of Aerospace engineering,including management and mentoring of engineers over much of my 44 year career at Lockheed Martin. I have also tutored math, phyics, and other related subjects.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love working with children and I believe in high level of excellence in education. I believe all children can do well in studies, but they need different methods of learning. Some children need more visual methods; some need more practice and some need more hands-on experience to understand the subject better. My goal is to give them confidence by patience and encouragement. I believe a good educator can make a world of difference in a child’s education. I strive to make a difference in my students’ lives by giving them the confidence and solid foundation for higher education.
I have earned two master degrees, MS in Chemistry (with focus in Organic Chemistry) and M.Tech. in Chemical Analysis and control. This has gained me an understanding in many areas of math, chemistry and biology. In addition, I have MBA degree from San Jose State University which has polished my skills in ... read more

As teaching is my passion and profession it has taught me a lot. I am currently in the middle of getting my teaching credentials. As well as learning about teaching, I have earned my Bachelor's of Arts in Economics. I got my degree in India because I wanted to do something unique. It was definitely interesting learning about education in another part of the world. During that time I ran Drama classes for kids alongside my mom. I also taught English at an orphanage in India. Last February I worked as a Teacher's Aide in a classroom. This year I am doing some part-time work as an on-call substitute teacher at a private school.
I love working with children and I would love to help students find success in learning new things. Its a great joy to see students succeed after helping them. I believe kids should learn in the learning style they prefer. Whether they learn visual ... read more

I have always wanted to do something to make a difference for children. That commitment has influenced my teaching style. I am willing to help students beyond the call of duty by helping them individually and taking the extra time if need be to help them. I believe in their greatness and work to help them believe in themselves and their abilities. I am goal-oriented, focused, empathetic, and encouraging. I motivate students to want to work and want to excel through care, encouragement, praise, and having them believe in themselves.
As a child I have always wanted to do something to help children. This is evidenced in my volunteer work with children, getting a bachelor's degree in child/human development, getting a master's degree in elementary education, and teaching for 17 years. I have also tutored students individually as I wanted them to excel. People have referred me to tut ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I taught a 5th grade for half a year in Missouri directly after graduating from college in January. I then taught a 5th/6th combination grade for one year when I moved to Colorado. After my marriage, I did substitute teaching for about 3 years. My most recent teaching experience was eight months of substitute teaching for K-8th grade in 2007. I have periodically tutored over the years in all subjects for students in elementary school.
I especially enjoy building the self confidence of students that have failed in an area. I believe their attitude about themselves plays a huge role in their ability to learn. I also try to create a firm foundation of basics so that they are able to easily build on that.
