My background in sociology and tutoring combined with my client service experience has provided me with a unique ability to understand and communicate across all age levels and learning types. Typically a stagnant learning experience is accelerated merely by another person being able to express the same statement in several possible ways. Personalities are dynamic and highly influence the way in which an individual understands and, more importantly, retains information. Energy should be focused not simply on the subject material, but on understanding the complexity of the personality and tailoring the teaching method to the individual.
As a graduate from a small private high school (graduating Salutatorian) and elite college (graduating Cum Laude), I was afforded the great opportunity to work closely with both my professors and peers. The intimate settings and ongoing relations ... read more

In my teaching experience, I dealt with children of diverse background and naturally each child learns in different ways. I believed as a teacher that you have to be flexible in your teaching style in order to help your students learn. Each of them have their own learning style, therefore innovation in teaching style is a must. In my teaching, I always make it a point to help my students by presenting to them different methods in solving math problems so they can choose which methods work well for them. I firmly believed that through patience, understanding, constant encouragement, and showing your students that you care would go a long way in making your students be successful individual.
With my degrees in Civil Engineering and M.A. in Education major in math I worked in various fields such as engineering & design, construction, estimating, and teaching. However, I have more year ... read more

I challenge the students by raising a question or writing a problem on the board and asking students to share their ideas with me . This provides the students with the opportunity to think about the problem on their own, to determine their own strategy. During the discussion, they also have the advantage of seeing other ways of approaching the problem. When the problem proves too challenging, I usually give them small step by step hints and direct them to the answer. I also make sure that we spend enough time discussing all the ideas suggested by students, not limiting the discussion to the ones I know are correct or most effective.

I have earned BSC in physics with minor Math.Since I like numbers I joined Penn Foster college and earned my degree in electrical engineering in 2008. I taught Physics and Math both in the classroom and small group of students for more than 8 years.
One understands the best if he or sheis challenged by a problem and gets engaged in it. As a teacher, I challenge the students by raising a question or writing a problem and asking students to share their ideas with me . This provides the students with the opportunity to think about the problem on their own, to determine their own strategy. During the discussion, they also have the advantage of seeing other ways of approaching the problem.They have tried and experienced many different ideas on their own and as a result, they become sharper in grasping the materials.

I teach for sucess. There are two components to it. The first is to get the fundamentals. The next step is to master the art of excelling in exams. I believe that many children get the first part but do not get help on the methodology to excel in exams.Yet there are others who do not get the fundamentals right and try to crack the exam code. They often struggle. My aproach is to make the students a winner.
First as a student of mechanical engineering at IRIMEE, India, and then as a MBA student at Tulane University, New Orleans, I mastered the art of excelling in subjects. Excelling in subjects takes more than putting in the hours and practicing. It is also the approach that matters. I believe that I can share the recipe for success with my students and help them succeed in their academic endevors. My personal favourites have been Physics and Mathematics, and over the last 5 years ... read more

Science and math is best taught using self discovery and inquiry. I use these methods extensively. Patience is necessary as you first model, then assist, and finally use practice so the student gains fluency in the skill. I plan lessons around individual learning style and ability. Tough love is needed so a student will reach potential as is recognition of progress. I used my tecnical skills in the real world for 35 years. Hence I bring real world applications that are relevant and familiar to the student. This experience gives me a large portfolio of examples and approaches to explain what are often abstract concepts. Finally, the use of humor and today's digital tools help connect the student to the subject.

As a high school student, I excelled at my schoolwork. I was retained as a tutor for middle school students in math and science subjects. When I entered college, my major in engineering has required that I take a lot of upper level math and science courses. These rigorous courses have strengthened my math and science skills. I am very well versed from algebra all the way to Calculus two.
I love helping people. I feel that a student can always teach a student better than a teacher. Their teaching style is a lot forgiving and the student is less intimidated knowing that someone else has been where he/she is currently. It also takes a great deal of patience to teach someone something and a forgiving nature. I excel at both of those.

My experience as a teacher is rooted in family values. I was taught to believe that I could excel in what ever I put my mind too. After graduating from high school at the age of 16 and starting college as the youngest in my class, I quickly fell in love with chemistry. After, graduating with my BS, and latter my MS, I have worked between academia and industry for a number of years. This experience has allowed me to develop a hands on approach to teaching.
Teaching is a profession that is not well recognized, however my reason for teaching lays within my family values. I believe that the youth is the future. This core belief of mines allow me to dedicate myself to understanding how children learn and ultimately how I can best serve the children.
