I want to teach people to make them gaining the perfect knowledge while getting a perfect grade.I don't believe that anybody can learn material perfectly while they are having poor grade. in that sense my philosophy is different than most teachers. Because they used to tell me don't concentrate on your grade.But i believe by concentrating on getting a good grade will make you study and as a result you will perfectly learn the materials. But don't only study for an A but make your A giving you all the necessery things you need to know in a particular course. Being an engineering student i earned vast knowledge in most of the math class required for engineering such as calc-1,calc-2,calc-3 and so on and have perfect grade in all the math class i have takken so far. i worked as a math tutor in Wichita state math lab where i used to tutor basic algebra,trigonometry,college algebra,pre calc

Although I never actually taught a class, I was able to learn how to adapt to the individual needs of a student. Some learn visually, others with games, practice, hands on... and the list continues. I find starting out with the basics and working up to the harder subjects is important. So, with the assignment given I also ask other questions of the student to see if they understand the more basic concepts of the problem as well as answer the question. I find this helps them understand the process more completely and the student ends up giving more complete answers on assignments and exams. At the end of each session I hope the person I am helping better understands the material and can gain a little confidence about the subject. In undergrad, I was somewhat of a perfectionist looking for a way to help others. I found that being a tutor and a supplemental instructor allowed me to help oth

There are several different styles of teaching. I experienced hands on teaching through the lab courses that I taught. These experiences showed me how important hands on learning is to understanding difficult and complicated concepts. By seeing the information you are learning in a different way, you now have one more method of remembering that material. I believe that students learn best when they not only hear the information that they need to know but also know how to use and apply that information. That is why I have very hands on and demonstration oriented style of teaching. I am always patient and understanding and I love teaching. I received my bachelor’s degree from Oklahoma State University in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. I then moved to the University of Kansas where I completed a masters in Biochemistry and Biophysics. During this time I was a graduate teaching assist

Teaching is my calling. My goal is to see students see success. I believe all students can learn. It is up to us as educators. to find out which style best suites each students ability. I am empathetic to all students needs. I am very patient, easy going and considerate. My goal is to provide the student with the tools needed to succeed. I believe in the multiple intelligience teaching style and teaching through discovery. I believe that all children can and will meet their potential if they are given the appropriate experiences in learning. My calling is to assure students achieve their goals. I will make a difference in all my student's lives. As a experienced Educator with the Wichita Public School system, I have been driven to achieve a level of excellence in education.

Education is a key to a high quality of life. I have earned a BS in Chemical Engineering (math, science, chemistry) and a BA in Ministry and Leadership (Bible, management, essay writing). In addition, I lack 3 hours from completing a Master's Degree in Education. My tutoring experience has primarily been with students working to earn their GED. However, I have tutored and mentored several people over time on various subjects. My teaching experience includes a teaching a weekly Bible class last year. I enjoy teaching and there is no greater reward for a tutor than to share knowledge to others and to see students grow in knowledge and confidence. I like to make learning as fun and with as little stress as possible. The environment should be conducive to learning. I try to adapt my style to the way in which the student can learn the most efficiently and most effectively. Encouragem

I believe in working in an interactive environment with the students, keeping them involved and attentive. I feel that any subject can be learned when broken down into simple terms and personally related in a way that each student can understand. Although I can be around while a student is working through problems, I believe that teaching the methods and techniques to solve them are much more important than simply giving them the solutions. I have graduated with a PhD in Chemical Engineering, which has given me a thorough understanding of advanced math and science, especially in chemistry. As a graduate student, I spent 9 semesters as a teaching assistant, where I have done things such as grading homework, quizzes and exams; teaching lectures and labs; and assisting students outside the classroom with any issues they have with the curriculum. I also spent a semester volunteer tutorin

I have a license in Elementary Education with an endorsement in middle school math. I am currently attending WSU for a Masters in Counseling. I have been working for the Wichita Public Schools since 2006. I have tutored at the Wichita Children's Home helping over 40 students earn their high school diplomas. I love working with children and believe every child can not only learn, but enjoy learning. I like making learning fun. Some obstacles in learning are based on one's feelings about learning or about a particular subject. Sometimes asking the right questions can unblock the obstacle, leading to a better awareness of one’s abilities and knowledge. I have helped students find their inner strength and a better self awareness of what it takes for them to succeed.

I have previously taught secondary Mathematics and Science in New York. At present, I also hold secondary Math and Biology certifications in 3 states and I am eligible to hold more certifications in this area. My Bachelor's degree is from Wichita State University and have also obtained additional credits. I love teaching both Mathematics (including all areas of Math: Calculus, Trigonometry, Geometry, Algebra and Statistics) and Science (Biology, Chemistry). I work with student(s) in such a way as to demonstrate the problem or similar problems and then break down the essential steps so as to make it intelligible to the student(s). Sometimes, while defining a problem, it is also important to look at the problem critically and identify why certain attributes are arranged in a certain order. Good visualization is also very important in Mathematics and the Sciences; therefore, I make he

I believe that you cannot do everything for the student. You have to find their learning style and then develop upon that to be able to open the door to learning of the subjects. There is no such thing as a good teacher with out a learning student. I have graduated from Wichita State with a BA of General Studies with a minor in chemistry, biology, physics, and sociology. I have helped high school students and college students in math and science courses.

In conclusion, I think that I can still be successful in teaching. I however, need to find what area that I can be most successful at. I think that with my non-traditional training and experience, that a similar position would give me the opportunity to be most successful. One thing that I have thought a great deal about these past few weeks, is that I am entering middle age and must be a success at something. In the past, I have found the most enjoyment and fulfillment working with special needs and incarcerated students. I hope that this time, t hat I can be more persistent, responsible, and realistic in my teaching and counseling career. Since my previous experience has been working with fairly non-traditional students, I would like to find a similar position. I have applied for several positions that have opened up in public schools and

As a Graduate Teaching Assistant at Kansas State, I was tasked not only with teaching mathematics in a classroom setting, but also in a more personal setting. Part of my duties included being available to briefly tutor students (ranging from basic math through Introductory Differential Equations) one on one in the Math Help Room. Let's face it; most students do not want to be in a math class. As a teacher, it is my job to present the material in a way that will make students not want to tar and feather me out of boredom while simultaneously communicating the abstract ideas as clearly as possible. However I like puns, and math is filled with wonderful pun making material (like: how to deal with radicals using our rational powers and get to the root of the problem). Consequently, I am pretty sure my students want to tar and feather me, but at least they will not do it out of boredom and t
