Calculus I Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Shelby, OH

I love to teach and tutor mathematics. I've won two awards for my teaching. I try to present information in ways that are easy to understand. Because of my 20+ years of experience, I'm able to come up with different ways until I find one best understood by the student. I'm excited about the possibility of helping you achieve your educational goals with one-on-one tutoring.

As an Ivy league graduate, I was driven to acheive a high level of excellence in education. I have earned a bachelor degree in education and masters degree in education with a major in mathematics. I have also worked in the business field and am able to teach students today how to apply mathematics in the real world. Recently I have been teaching as a substitute teacher in 3 counties and I have been doing alot of tutoring as well. I am certified to teach secondary mathematics and social studies by the state of OHIO. I also enjoy teaching college students and tutoring on a weekly basis. I teach for the students to learn and to enjoy the learning process. I am satisfied when I see the students are able to grasp the concepts on their own and see how the application works. I have worked with a variety of children from kindergarten to high school and college levels. I am an educator who does

I have always been a tutor of sorts. I love to teach kids because of the sparkle they get in their eyes when they finally understand what they are being taught. Each child have a different learning style so I try to work with them to see what works for them. I have worked with kids who have ADD and the gifted. The greatest thing I can teach is that we can teach to create intelligence, but wisdom comes from using all that you know. I started tutoring in 7th grade back in 1976. I have been tutoring my own kids for over 14 years. I have been a Scout leader for over 9 years. I worked with boys ages 5 to 18 years of age. I have brought 2 learning disabled teens into my home to help them graduate High School. Both have gone on to be Certified Welders. I have presided over the Parental Acceptance Committee for both Fremont and all five of WSOS HeadStart Counties and all the centers in

I try to find a common, basic level of understanding with the student and then show how a few key insights can help the student broaden her/his knowledge. In math, for example, this typically means showing how elementary concepts can be applied to simplify more complex problems, such as showing how such things as the distributive and associative properties are being used in solving equations, sometimes in a context where these things are often glossed over. I have taught computer science courses in business college, and I taught algebra, calculus, and statistics as a graduate student. I remain convinced of the necessity of obtaining basic math skills for success in today's world, and I spend a lot of time maintaining my own skills in math and computers. I am currently spending 8-12 hours per day, mostly programming vectors and mathematical functions as spreadsheet macros.

I fully love my architecture career, but I have never lost my love for math and science! Every day I use basic math, geometry, and even physics (to calculate structural components). I am forced to design creative solutions and think outside the box. I hold a 4 year BS and a 5 year Bachelor of Architecture, and I have tutored on and off over the years. I have also taught Sunday School for the last 3 years, which has increased my ability to explain complicated issues in simple, understandable, and relevant ways. There is a way to reach every child. It is my responsibility to figure out how an individual child learns best, and then use it to show him learing is fun! I enjoy challenging a child to think - to think more creativly, tieing together concepts to gain understanding. There is nothing like seeing a child grasp a new concept, or watching their eyes light up as something which s

Graduated from wright state university in 1993 with a bachelors of science degree in mechanical engineering. I have worked the past 16 years in the automotive industry mainly as a manufacturing supervisor. Also, since high school have volunteered abd served on 2 fire departments as a firefighter and emergency medical technician. I enjoy teaching young adults the education and work experiences I have obtained the past 20 years. I enjoy teaching and working with all of todays youth. My main joy is teaching science and math since they are the foundation of all engineering principles which makes society go forward everyday. I believe teaching should be one that uses the childs minds in discovery and actual examples.

I usually teach one on one so I can cater to the individual needs of the students and help them understand better. I enjoy teaching my students and am delighted when I see them progress in their grades. I have tutored undergraduate students in Calculus, Accounting, Finance and Economics. Most of these students came to me because they made a grade of C or below, but I successfully helped them to make an A.

I believe the key to learning is to break complex concepts down into manageable sizes. The goal of tutoring is to relate new or difficult material to simple ideas that are already familiar to the student. Above all else, it is important to communicate with the student to understand where the breakdown in understanding is and then develop an approach that aids in comprehension. I earned three degrees in five years, all in quantitative disciplines. The range of material covered by those degrees includes mathematics and statistics, economics, and some computer programming. Beyond my education background, I have five years of experience tutoring. In high school, I tutored children in reading and writing and other high school students in mathematics and Latin. In college, I have one additional year of experience tutoring introductory calculus.

I provide opportunities for students to engage in hands-on activities that are interesting and meaningful to them and that promote critical thinking skills. I assign reading material that directly supports these activities so my students can read with a purpose. Learning takes effort; it can be challenging and frustrating, but is also very rewarding. I encourage students and provide assistance when needed to help them learn challenging concepts without getting frustrated. I try to accommodate individual learning preferences by providing students with choices for independent or group activities. After twenty years working in the environmental, health and safety field, I was motivated to change careers and become a science teacher. As a "second career" teacher, I earned a Master of Education degree at the University of Toledo and am licensed to teach Integrated Science (i.e., Earth an

Working with grades 7-12 I used various methods of teaching different age groups. I use every day applications for courses to make it symbolic and understandable for students. I look for their strengths and weaknesses and focus on the areas of difficulty. I use the internet for an approach to their needs and some times testing. I show my students how to properly do a task or work through a problem and then I'll help them master the task or problem solution. It's important that my students can independently solve similar problems by using and adapting demonstrated methods. I have been a teach/tutor since 1977. I have worked at a large school system for many years and at Community Colleges. Tutored students from 7th grade to 12th and college students. Math, Physics, Applied Sciences, and all facets of Computer skills. I have worked with students of advanced learning and those with less th

I feel the need for tutoring is the need to simply obtain information in a form that is different from the one presented in the classroom. As a tutor, I work to break things down into their constituent pieces and explain each of these pieces in turn. This is a more time-intensive method of instruction, of course, as the breaking down of information is totally dependent on the way it must be done for it to make sense to the student. Tutoring allows this method to be used, as one-on-one, this method is just as quick as the standard schoolroom methods. As a holder of a BS in Chemistry, I have a very strong grasp of science and mathematics, as well as a passion for the written word. I have volunteer experience tutoring my fellow students at Eastwood High School, out of which came two years' of summer tutoring for one of the individuals I helped while volunteering. My methods are amorphous an

My most complete tutoring experience spans the last two years with my post retirement job as a helpdesk in a Public Library’s computer lab. Because of the wide range in patrons’ background and age, each instruction must be tailored for a specific patron. I do fill-in and explain what seems to be missing in patron’ background. I believe that one on one teaching, is more effective than classroom’s experience, because each patron’s problem can be dealt with immediately, while a person faces it and when he or she is motivated to observe the solution. During my working career at NASA as a research engineer I have used mathematics extensively, and it unavoidably included all of the subjects dealt with in a high school. After retirement, as a helpdesk and in my private practice as a computer integrator and troubleshooter, I find that one of the challenges confronting a teacher with an older pa
