Kari F - Berrien Springs, MI 49103 (11.8 mi) - Pre-Calculus Tutor - $42.00/hr.
My teaching style approaches the learner with patience and creativity. As an art and writing student, I realize that many kids learn differently, and I try to approach each situation as a unique situation. As a writing consultant what I loved hearing about was when students became more confident and improved to the point of independence. Because of this my teaching style involves breaking down the writing process into a format that is understandable for the student and using the foundations of their learning. As a student myself, I appreciate and respond best to constructive criticism, and so I have learned to first praise, and then improve. As an undergraduate student, I had the opportunity to work as a tutor in the Writing Center of Andrews University. I assisted both undergraduate and graduate students and community members with various essays and papers, concentrating on grammatical

Jonathan L - Watervliet, MI 49098 (16.7 mi) - Pre-Calculus Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I would describe my teaching style as patient, considerate and thorough. During my years of tutoring, I have learned to individualize my approach to student and subject material depending on the former's individual characteristics. As a graduate of an excellent college (Columbia) with a major in mathematics, I feel that I am well trained for the position of mathematics tutor. I have over five years' experience with tutoring of high school and college students in various branches of mathematics, including algebra, geometry, trigonometry and calculus.

James K - Hartford, MI 49057 (20.2 mi) - Pre-Calculus Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I taught H.S. chemistry I & II in the Indianapolis area from 2001-2005. Entering college at Western Michigan U, I had plans on becoming a teacher, but went into the analytical research laboratory.
I decided to go back and get my teaching license because I have a passion for education. I believe that the learning experience is wonderful and chemistry/science excites me. Sometimes I reflect back and consider how everything I see, touch, and smell is made from the elements on the periodic table. How can that be? I enjoy teaching and working with young adults. I am a Christian and I believe in patients, consideration, and encouragemet. Since I was a chemistry/science teacher, I believe in hands on learning and of course discovery. I brought real life experiences into my lesson plans because I have years of experience as a chemist. I used PowerPoint presentations to entertain and kee

Tara C - paw paw, MI 49079 (34.7 mi) - Pre-Calculus Tutor - $47.00/hr.
I've always had a passion to teach. Life took me down a few different paths but I've managed to find my way back to teaching. I'm looking to pursue a Masters in order to obtain a position in the fields of teaching CAD. I enjoy teaching others because I think I have a unique connection with the way some people think. I have dyslexia, but I managed to get a 3.9 in High School, a 2.98 at Michigan Tech and currently hold a 3.85 at KVCC. I am a right brained person that can see things in different ways or am able to relate them to something else in life to get the understanding to grasp the concept that is trying to be taught/learned. I have 5.5 years at Michigan Technological University in the studies of Mechanical Engineering. I currently take classes at Kalamazoo Valley Community College in their certification for CAD Specialists. I have substitute taught in the pass for a few months, mai

Barry B - Bremen, IN 46506 (38.6 mi) - Pre-Calculus Tutor - $34.00/hr.
At Purdue University I took all Engineering degree mathematics courses. In addition, I took five statistical cources, three of them were graduate level.
At AlliedSignal, I received a week's training to teach three day courses in Total Quality Leadership to employees. Over the course of one year, I conducted twenty four courses with a partner facilitator.
One company I worked for was a supplier to Caterpillar. In the course of mutual problem solving, I was able to be certified as a Green Belt. My teaching style is to provide several ways to solve a problem. Since learning is done in different ways, one of the solution methods will turn on a light bulb and the student will "get it". I bring additional materials and new ways to remember. Last fall I tutored a fifth grader in mathematics. I provided note cards for him in the various solution formulas.

Miguel P - Allegan, MI 49010 (44.2 mi) - Pre-Calculus Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I recalled my difficulties in learning difficult subjects, my difficulties are not universal but I draw from them in finding what is blocking the student from grasping certain concepts. I recall teaching my children at a very early age the concept of ratios. I used windows, tiles from the kitchen, a pizza pie etc. This, before going to pencil and paper and it worked. Till this day they know fractions inside and out because they understood the concept in real life. This is typically my approach, then we can go and do problems in the abstract on paper. I have a very broad experience in the fields of chemistry and physics. This was attained during my work experience within the Pharmaceutical industry. This has enabled me to gain an intimate knowledge of research methodology, logical approach to problem solving, mathematical relationships, and writing skills as evident in publications and pa

Christopher C - Otsego, MI 49078 (47.8 mi) - Pre-Calculus Tutor - $38.50/hr.
My passion and energy help me to connect with students and develop a rapport which allows for more effective communication and an enjoyable learning experience. As a teacher, I have a talent for taking the student's interests and breaking that down into mathematical and scientific concepts which makes it more interesting and understandable for the learner. I feel that making connections to real world situations helps with long-term success! I have a great sense of fulfillment when I see my students making connections and succeeding at the levels they are capable of achieving. I have received a BA in Math and Earth Science Secondary Education. I am currently obtaining my Master's Degree in Math Education. I have a diverse background in education ranging from tutoring, substitute teaching, and teaching grades 7 – College in the areas of math and science. I have acquired the skills to
