Algebra II Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Sheldon, IL

I specifically enjoy helping with homework or test prep, where the student has specific problems to work through. Otherwise, I can explain basic concepts and give practice problems to work through. I really like to work through a lot of examples because without practice it can be difficult to apply. I will receive my bachelors degree in mathematics from Purdue University in May 2012; however I began my college career in math education so I have taken many methods/teaching courses. In the past I have done short-term tutoring for algebra/pre-algebra, geometry, high school calculus (calc 1), and algebra II. I have also tutored in English as a second language, specifically for native Spanish speakers.

I have over 15 years experience in the Private Accounting sector. I have worked with every segment of the accounting process and I love teaching other people what I know. I have trained several people over the years that have gone on to be very successful accountants. I have also managed several accounting professionals over the years. I am a hands on teacher and I try really hard to find ways to relate a subject to the individual.

My teaching style varies upon subject and student. I graduated from Jefferson High School in the spring of 2012. I now attend Indiana University-Purdue University in Fort Wayne. I have two younger siblings and 4 younger step-siblings that I have helped with their homework, or helped them better understand material assigned to them. Their ages range from 8-17. I know how to explain certain subjects in multiple ways to ensure that eventually the student will understand the material. I am very patient, and I understand that some people learn at slower rates than others. I am majoring in nursing, though I considered teaching English before making this decision. I love teaching, and am looking to make some extra money for things I need while in college.

I have multiple methods of teaching children and young adults. I make the learning process fun while helping the student in building the necessary skills for future achievements. I have the unique ability to bring out a child's potential. I have spent four years teaching English in Japan for Miyashiro Machi. I taught elementary and Jr. high school children. I speak fluent Japanese. I also have extensive compositional writing skills.

I believe in taking a casual approach in tutoring. From previous experience, I have found that many times students understand the material but tend to get flustered in a classroom environment. I provide guidance when needed, but sometimes students just need someone there to talk it out with them. If this is the case I like to ask questions until they find the answers themselves. This method not only teaches them the material, but also builds confidence because they realize they can figure out much of it themselves. I worked for Kankakee Community College for one year as a Math and Spanish tutor in 2006 and 2007. During this year, I honed the mathematics I learned through high school as well as the four years of Spanish I had taken to that point. After a year, my classes conflicted with my tutoring schedule but I still wanted to help fellow students so I started independently tutoring. Af

I tutored all through college. I have tutored one-on-one and small groups, and I have also been a TA and taught a few class periods. In addition i tutored a student in High School in several subjects. Most of my experience tutoring has been in math, physics and engineering, but I am also fluent in Spanish. My teaching style is helping the student arrive at the correct solution. In problem based courses this is usually done through asking the student what they think the next step should be and guiding them through the process of problem solving. Once they start to understand problem solving then they do not only improve in the course that I am tutoring them in but in their other courses as well. In a nutshell I try to help students learn how to learn.

I have always loved school and find that I miss it at times. Because of that I jump at the chance to help those who need it. I college I helped other students who had math and physics classes. I have learned the skills that I needed to both learn and remember and have helped others to do so also. My best friend's little brother is dyslexic and I have helped him throughout high school and now in college. I am very easy going, patient, a problem-solver. I believe that learning can and should be fun, and when it is not only does a person enjoy it, but often excells at it. Having always been driven to achieve academic success, I received all A's throughout middle school and high school and was one of my high school valedvictorians. I then received full tuition to the University of Evansville and continued my academic success. My major required my to put in hours before and after the

As a Purdue University grad, I have firm foundation in the following subjects: Calculus (I, II, & III), General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physical Chemistry, Chemical Engineering--(Heat/Mass, Fluids, etc.), Physics (Mechanics and Electricity/Magnetism), Differential Equations, and Linear Algebra. I also completed a minor in Spanish and am able to read, write, and speak the language fluently. Likewise, I took both Anatomy & Physiology courses (along with Intro Bio). I have tutored students in all of the subjects mentioned above for Purdue student athletes and other students. I have a passion for teaching. I TA'd an intro to Bio course and have experience tutoring many students for well over seven years. I am still a student myself, so I understand the value of tutoring. I am a life-long learner, and I always strive to provide the student I am tutoring (both and young and old) th

I believe that good teachers must truly like their subjects and also must care about whether or not their students really understand the material. They must find ways to motivate their students to learn and cultivate an interested in the subject. Students usually come to me very anxious and nervous about their physics, chemistry and math classes and I enjoy helping them overcome their anxiety and frustration about these difficult subjects. My goal is not to give answers, but rather to provide examples and methods that students can use to think through problems on their own and gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of the subject that can translate to other classes, the workplace and life! I have been a community college adjunct professor for the past 5 years, teaching physics and physical science. I have also tutored in the College Learning Center where I have helped students i

I have always had an interest in helping others learn new material. I have earned a BS and MS in Physics, and in the process of doing this I also did extensive coursework in Mathematics. My education has given me a thorough understanding of these two subjects. At Georgia Tech, I worked as a teaching assistant in Mathematics, teaching recitation sections and holding office hours in which students were given individual attention. Part of my duties as a TA were to work in the school's Math Lab, providing tutoring to students in Mathematics. Prior to becoming a TA, I worked as a Physics tutor on campus. At Michigan State, I was primarily involved in research activities in the field of Nuclear Physics, and a large portion of this job involved teaching others about the technical details of and the physical principles behind the work being done. This work further developed my abilities as a

Every student is different. They all have different experiences and learning styles. Sometimes teachers can just try to explain concepts and ideas the way that they understand things. I like to first ask students questions to help me understand where they are, what they specifically do and do not understand. This helps me to figure out how to help the student. Also in my experience, teachers teach only one method of solving a specific problem and that way may not be easy for that student. I like to explain many methods so the student can choose the method he or she understands. Every student can achieve academic success. They just need someone who understands how they learn in order push them forward and give them the confidence they need. While attending Danville Area Community College from 2003 to 2005, I tutored middle school and high school students through a program called AVID (Adv

I've had a strong passion for everything related to Math since grade school. This continued into high school, where I was fortunate to have an extraordinary Math instructor, who further inspired me to put forth my best. College proved difficult in that I was forced to teach myself, rather than rely on the straight-forward explanations of my high school days, in order to succeed. My long history of countless math courses and exposure to an exceptional teacher provided me with a strong foundation based on extensive knowledge and instructional tools required to help others in their academic pursuits. Also, it comes through to the students that I care just as much about their success as I do the material that I'm teaching. My teaching style depends on the student. It takes some time to identify what methods work best on the individual. In most cases, the student just needs a clearer ex

I can teach any age since I have experience with almost with age group of 5 yr to 30 yr. and I love my job Since I was in high school I have been teaching my sisters to get their way around with Science/Math/English. I realized my understanding more towards this subjects as I went teaching Students through out my Under graduation. I got admitted in Rochester Institute of Technology, NY as masters student along with teaching assistance. I was thrilled by my experience to teach undergraduate Students and got very good recommendation from students. I plan to continue in same profession for sometime.
