More About This Tutor...

I enjoy teaching and working with all students- elementary to college-age. I have experience tutoring and mentoring children of all ages, including special-needs children. I gain great satisfaction from knowing I am helping students succeed. Knowledge is power.
As a graduate student at Bay Path College in Longmeadow, MA I have mastered the fields of finance, accounting, technical writing, and computer skills. As a paralegal, my attention to detail has allowed me to master all rules of grammar and language format. While attending undergraduate school in Colorado I tutored classmates in Spanish, Italian, and writing. I also volunteered as a law clerk and taught Greek Mythology and Sociology to middle and high-school students expelled from school and placed in the Boulder County Juvenile Justice Center.

During the past two years, I have worked as a full-time Mathematics teacher. I have taught Honors Geometry, College Geometry, General Geometry, General Algebra I and Applied Mathematics.

A Little Bit About Me...

I got my bachelor's degree with concentration on statistics in Beijing Normal University, which is the best teacher training university in China, and received all rounded training to make a teacher. In summer of 2007, I joined a summer camp team and volunteer to tutor math in a far away high school. Currently i am working as teaching assistant in University of Connecticut. The evaluation from my college students is good enough.
There is no uniquely perfect method for different students. I intend to think as a student and set different goals and solutions for different students. Additionally, I prefer more comprehension, through which the student can only get good comprehension of knowledge.I am a nice tutor, and always ends up good friends with my student. Actually I am still corresponding with my previous students and offering help to them now.

My experience with tutoring, employee training and working with my own two children has shown me that there are many different learning styles and paces. It is exciting to find that key for each person and watch their growth and development through learning. Up front, I believe it is important to understand the goals of the student and their family and then focus on providing the support necessary to see them achieve and exceed those goals.
Following my graduation from the University of Connecticut I pursued a career in the insurance industry but have also spent time working as a youth group leader and worked as a part-time tutor for several years. While living in Connecticut I tutored homebound high school age children who were either out on medical leave or expelled for disciplinary purposes. I am proud to report that in addition to several other students, I provided tutoring ... read more

I am seeking a degree in Finance and Actuarial Sciences from the University of Connecticut.

Making lasting commetments allowes the student to take controle of his own improvement, yet allows me to see what he need direction in. In showing the student alternative practices, he will see the benifit in changing his ways for the better.

I enjoy getting the student excited about what they are learning by showing them the practical and useful side of what they are being taught. I believe that when learning is fun and students enjoy what they are learning they will do better. I try to use a hands on approach so that the student learns by doing. I provide lots of examples and change my teaching methods according to each students needs. As a tutor at Springfield Technical Community College, students would specifically request my services as they felt my teaching methods were easy to understand.

While at Nichols College, I took a part time job at the local Boys & Girls club in Dudley Massachusetts. Here, I worked with children from a variety of backgrounds on their homework and various other projects especially mathematics in which I specialize in. Many of these children were living in more challenging home environments, sometimes lacking a father and or living in a troubled neighborhood. My textbook strengths would anything math, finance, accounting, and business related. More importantly, my best asset regarding tutoring would be my ability to adapt my teaching to the child's needs and learning style. I think more than anything, this experience would be personally fulfilling.
Each student requires a different approach to teaching. With this in mind, I prefer to sit one on one and work from the bottom up to try to figure out exactly where some of the issues may be. ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

All students can achieve success. As an educator, it is finding the means in which each individual student measures success and the best environment for them to learn in. Understanding what the students find interesting and relating the subject matter to this environment simplifies their learning process. This is best achieved through a one-on-one learning environment. I have found this to be true whether teaching at the elementary, secondary, college or graduate level. The reward of seeing a student’s expression of success and understanding is a pleasant reminder that educators build success in others.
Whether in the environment of education, work or community, leadership and mentoring has always been my focus. My strong educational values were developed throughout my elementary and high school levels, graduating with honors. This level of achievement followed me through Col ... read more

I have always felt the need and want to help others, whether educationally or socially. As an immigrant who had to learn a new educational system, language, and lifestyle, I know first-hand how difficult a true and successful learning process can be. I believe that my strong communication skills and a patient persona are critical in helping someone achieve educational success. In recognizing each child's individual skills and abilities, I only hope to help them recognize their own strengths and weaknesses to achieve improvement.

I love to wokr with children one on one and in small groups. My approach is to break the subject matter down into its most simple level. I also use real life examples to demostrate the subject being taught. I also ensure the student is involved and can demonstrate he/she has understood what has been taught. As a father of four children I am very patient when sitting down and working with children. I believe that every child can do anything they put their mind to as long as they are provided the right guidence and tools, which I provide when I and tutoring.
