A Little Bit About Me...

My undergraduate experience has given me both breadth and depth in academic subjects. The curriculum I've studied at St. John's includes 4 years of language (2 Ancient Greek, 2 French); 3 years of laboratory science (physics, chemistry, biology, electricity & magnetism, etc.); 4 years of mathematics (including geometry, algebra, and calculus); and well as 4 years of "The Great Books of Western Civilization" tutorial wherein I have studied philosophy, literature, theology, political theory, and economics. I feel very comfortable in a tutoring position in most academic subjects spanning from K-college.
I am most familiar with conversation, as a means of relating information and testing understanding. I think that a through understanding in any subject comes about when a student can recognize the important concepts, and how they relate to each other, and speak those concepts in words ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am a person who love teaching children and being patient with them. I show my students how to effectively do a task and then help them to master the task so that they can independently complete similar task by adapting the same methods. I also encourage students to participate in discussions to build self confidence. I always work hard to make a difference in the lives of the students I teach.
I earned a bachelor of science degree in Mathematics and have gain full understanding of the subject. As a science student during my high school level has also given me an in depth knowledge in the sciences as well. I have taught students in mathematics for the past four years and believe that I have gain the requisite experience in teaching.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love sharing my love for mathematics with others. I find that my enthusiasm for the subject and for learning is contagious and helps me inspire my students to do their best. I believe that anyone can be successful at mathematics, and focus on showing concepts and ideas in several different ways to accommodate different learning styles. I focus on teaching problem solving and showing students the relevance of mathematics in their lives.
I have a Bachelors and Masters in Mathematics. I have been tutoring students in Mathematics since early in my college career. I have been teaching at the community college and university level for the past 4 years. During this time I have taught college level and high school level math as well as Mathematics for Elementary School Teachers. This experience has familiarized me with all of the current models, standards and principles of Mathematics ed ... read more

I have an MS in physics and a BS in mathematics. I have twenty years tutoring students in math and physics, starting while working on my BS. I taught trigonometry as a teaching assistant at portland State University while a graduate student. I also taught at Chemeketa Community College as a supplemental instructor, holding group tutoring sessions for basic algebra, trigonometry, and geometry, for classes that used these subjects as part of the course.
I enjoy teaching and creating interest in the subject that is being taught. I have learned from experiance that the more interested the students become in the subject, the better they learn. I have found that many students have a psychological barrier when it comes to mathematics and the sciences. Once that barrier is brought down, the students interest in the subject starts to perk, and it's all uphill from there. I strive to break t ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am professional, and would love to apply my ideas in innovation regarding the education environment, duration and implementation. My bachelor’s degree in chemical engineering, while accomplished a while back, is a plus in that I’ve learned to apply my analytical skills in the years gone by. I am presently an AVID tutor, and this is another badge of my working skill that I am proud to mention. I had dealt with students which were not emotionally or physically set-up for the classroom that needed to be addressed on a daily basis. I have taught math and algebra in a college setting. I have been in the education field for 13years, and I believe I can tackle most challenges that a student can present.
My teaching style is simple. In my classroom, I am the teacher, the gate keeper and the executioner. This is premised by my belief in the contingency theory, tempered in some ways that ... read more

I first like to establish the circumstances or situation of the problem to simply verify and make clear what is happening. This is important for any problem, whether math or an essay question. Next, my goal is to make clear the basic concept of the theory or formula that needs to be applied to the problem. This is probably the most crucial step in that it is very important to make a connection between reality and being able to measure or quantify the problem and that it makes sense. Next, it is important to simplistically breakdown the problem as much as possible to clearly apply the theory and calculations to the problem. Finally, go through the fundamentals of solving the problem and go over any “shortcuts” that may ease the calculations.
Studying applied physics and mathematics at a liberal arts school not only helped me strengthen my mathematical, problem solving, and anal ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Each child is a unique individual who needs a stimulating, secure, and, caring atmosphere to grow and mature.The enthusiasm of a motivated teacher energize the students. I encourage independent thinking and analytical reasoning to augment their problem solving skills, thus encouraging them to not just memorize. My first academic teaching experience began in my sixth grade math classroom. Since then I have been giving tuition for needed students in math and science. My students describe me as dedicated, enthusiastic, innovative and knowledgeable with a keen attitude towards helping students.
I have got my PhD degree (Chemistry) from Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur, India, which is one of the best institutes across the globe. During my MS program I had extensive courses in all branches of Chemistry and had Math and Physics as subsidiaries in the BS program. Qualified many comp ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I received my Bachelors of Arts degree from Willamette University, where I majored in politics and minored in economics. I chose to work for a Bachelor's of Arts degree because it stresses a strong understanding of all subjects - this is the core of my approach to learning and education. During my senior year of high school I tutored math and science at a middle school for one year, and prior to this spent several years babysitting and assisting elementary school-aged children with their studies. Though my experience is limited to tutoring, it came easily to me and I am confident that I can help others better understand what I have already learned. As a student that has earned consistently high marks and test scores, I am in a great position to do this.
In my own experience, the key to learning has been to find a "critical link:" that is, to figure out an angle that makes sense to ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I love to teach students that want to learn. I have a lot of experience building confidence along with building basic skills. I believe that everyone is capable of succeeding in math and science classes, and will work to teach the child how to believe in their abilities in these subject areas. I teach through examples, and tend to ask a lot of questions, making the student come up with the answer on their own. I believe that the best way to learn is to do, and once I explain a concept, we work examples until the subject is mastered.
I have been working as a tutor at the college level throughout my college experience. I worked both for the local community college and for my self as a private tutor. I earned two bachelor degrees, a BS in chemistry with an emphasis in physical chemistry, and a BS in math with an emphasis in applied mathematics. I work in the TRIO center, which has all ... read more
