Learn with experienced, successful tutor

I have a masters degree in Enviornmental Biology and a BA in pre-med sciences. I also have an AA degree in Dietetics. My other hat is a long career in writing, editing, and publishing. So, I am a grammarian and have taught English composition. I have been a substitute teacher for more than eight years in elementary, middle, and high school. During this time, I also have done private tutoring through the University of Nevada, usually one-on-one. However, with the after school programs, I have been group tutoring. I also worked as a teacher of English as a Second Language for adults in the evening program of our local community college for three years. Subjects tutored include math, biology, anatomy, and English.
My style of tutoring is creative flexibility. I assess the student's learning style and try to adapt to that, using different senses (kinetic, aural, oral) to ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Hands on and the use of formulas
I tutored math at the high school level for 2 years and helped the school increase their graduation rate by 30%. Levels were anywhere from basic algebra to Trigonometry and a little bit of calculus. The school was made up of students who we're struggling in public high school system and we're sent to this school to help with issues. It was and still is the first and oldest Charter High School in Northern Nevada.

Never tell a child when you can ask him.

For Science and Math I employ an inquiry-based method of teaching/exploration. This allows for more meaningful learning and gives the student the opportunity to learn on his or her own before being given instruction by the teacher. This method is aligned with the STEM initiative in the United States. For Language Arts, reading, and Spanish, I teach by individualizing instruction to each child, allowing for meaning-making and communication rather than simply rote learning of facts and vocabulary. I believe in combining a more traditional, rote approach with the more progressive whole-language approach to create a well-rounded literacy curriculum.
I have 6 years of substitute teaching experience in the Washoe County School District in Nevada, as well as at a charter school. Substitute teaching has allowed me to work with children from preschool to grade 12, in all subjects. I ha ... read more

UNR Grad and Experienced University Tutor working toward CPA

BS Economics UNR (2015) - Graduated with honors, on the dean's list (3.80 + GPA) Accounting Tutor - UNR Tutoring Center - Worked for three years from my Sophomore year through my Senior year as a tutor in the Thompson Building at UNR. Primarily tutored ACC 201 and ACC 202 but also did quite a bit of classes in the Economic Spectrum, Econometrics, Statistics and introductory level mathematics.
Honestly, not sure how to answer this. I think the entire benefit of working with a private tutor is that the tutor is able to change and adapt to complement the student. I wouldn't think to walk into a room and presume to know where the student is struggling or how best to help him. What I do consistently is to focus on basics and use colors, organization and logic to solve problems. Too often, people memorize the steps without understanding where they come from, this leaves them high a ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I've been tutoring since high schools in a wide range of subjects, such as latin, algebra II, and biology. The skills you use to teach yourself the material can be directly applied to someone else, especially when you find something does not click at first. I have a number of mnemonics for helping my tutees retain the material they've spent time learning. In college I don't tutor professionally because of time constraints, but I help other students understand problems they may be having difficulty with. I've also had my own SAT tutor and seen different programs and their styles, and I've chosen the one that I find the most effective.

A strength on which I have always prided myself is my ability to relate complex concepts with useful analogies and from different angles. I never underestimate a child's ability to learn something, so long as it's in a way in which they understand it. Curriculum development is also important. By that, I mean the creation of illustrations, tables, lists, acronyms, heuristics, and flash cards to aid a student in their thirst to learn. I am patient and fun, and working with children is something that has always animated and invigorated me. By getting a child to enjoy what he or she is learning, a tutor can open the floodgates to his or her potential and happiness.

More About This Tutor...

I believe all students can achieve success given the right learning experience and motivation. I appreciate that there are several methods through which students learn, and I believe the key to effective teaching is to find the right method for each student. There are many ways to explain any subject. If one explanation does not make sense, it is usually possible to find another way to say, write, draw or demonstrate the same idea. I am very patient and considerate of students’ needs, and I try to be as sensitive as possible to the learning style of each student. My goal is to provide the most educational experience possible by finding the learning style that works best for each student and by allowing them to learn through discovery.
I have earned a bachelor’s degree and a master’s degree in mining engineering which have given me a deep understanding in many areas of math, sc ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have plenty of classroom experience. I have worked as a substitute teacher for every grade level possible from pre-kindergarten all the way to adult school. I can work with all ages and grade levels depending on your needs. I can tutor the most basic of skills to more advanced formulas that require in depth analysis. I have tutored for a couple of friends before and in both instances, they earned an "A" in their class.
The key to success in any field is overcoming fear. I used to have a fear of some classes, until I decided I was going to face my fears and tackle the subjects. I can break down long problems and concepts into smaller components that are easier to understand. Math or science can be broken down into baby steps or bite size pieces. I work to make the subject as simple and logical to the student so they can master the subject. My goal is not to simply hand out fish ... read more
