A Little Bit About Me...

I have a natural passion for educating youth of all ages and find joy in helping them succeed. No child is unreachable when it comes to connecting with them. The only true difficulty may be finding their learning style. Teaching is easy when you know your audience. Our country has put our youth in a state of desperation with regard to their level of education, desire to obtain higher levels of education, and the ability to compete internationally. I want to be a part of the solution in reaching our youth and reassuring them that they can still be and achieve anything they seek.
Education is the central focus of my everyday life. I have obtained a BS in Management-Health Care/HR and 5 Associate degrees in Business Administration, Administrative Office Technology, Medical Office Technology, Legal Secretary, and College Transfer. I have been homeschooling my son since 2006 and mentori ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My teaching style adapts to each individual I work with. I believe that one of the most important things to helping anyone learn is to instill in them the confidence that they can be successful. I believe that there are lots of different ways to learn, and I like helping people figure out what works for them. If someone wants to be successful and is willing to put in the work, I will find a way to help them achieve their goals.
As a graduate of the Air Force Academy and Harvard Business School, I know what it takes to achieve excellence in education. I have earned advanced degrees in Engineering and Business. My love of teaching and coaching brought me back to the Air Force Academy to coach and tutor college athletes in math, science, English, and French. I also have extensive writing and speaking experience and have helped many students with college essays and applications.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a mathematics major, I tutored undergrad and grad students who experienced difficulty in their math courses, during the summer and the regular school year. Throughout my nine years of teaching, I've taught a variety of subjects, and I have learned how to build mature learners and effectively prepare students to be successful in their future math classes. As a current high school department chair, I teach Algebra. I've tutored middle, and high school students in 6th-8th Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, Pre-Calculus, Advanced Functions and Modeling, and Discrete Math.
I believe that cooperation among teachers, parents, and students is paramount to a student's success. I always facilitate open communication between every party that's invested in the child that I am tutoring. I maintain an easy-going yet structured atmosphere, where students feel comfortable sharing ... read more

When I approach a student I've never worked with, my first priority is to make them feel comfortable by letting them see that I am a very nice, friendly, and compassionate person that they might like to have as a friend. Next I try to get them to tell me about themselves in some way (what they've been working on, their favorite subjects) to try to encourage them to speak freely with me about what they're thinking. Then, after personal rapport is established, I begin my academic approach to tutoring by finding out how they think based on their interests or common themes, and I try to connect the material to these things. Children have trouble learning, often because the addressed concepts don't relate to their lives. I strive to connect the material to them, demonstrate its influence on their interests, and allow them to greet the academic engagement as some sort of useful tool, not a ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe all growth in the classroom has to come from a positive relationship between the student and the teacher. The excitement of learning can only come in an environment in which the student is comfortable and relaxed. Accordingly, I relate to each student on a personal level and try to make each lesson as interactive as possible. When a lesson is interactive, the student will be more engaged. Furthermore, lessons are better remembered when reinforced by hearing, speaking, and moving.
I come from a strong background in community building and civic leadership. I was drawn to teaching by the simple pleasure of working with students and the joy of being able to pass on what I have learned with others. During the last couple of years, I have worked with students of a variety of ages and in a variety of settings. I have experience ranging from teaching high school history, t ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My students have always found me to be extremely enthusiastic, thoroughly prepared, and genuinely concerned about their progress and success. I am very patient and encouraging, and I will keep working with students until they truly understand the material. I have had great success with students of all ages including those with learning disabilities. I know I have made a difference in my students' lives. One student found me a year after I taught his class and told me, "I would not have gotten my GED if it weren't for you, Mr. Uscher." Rewards like that cannot be measured.
I am a very experienced tutor. I have tutored math, reading, writing, history, ESL, and other subjects to students of all ages from elementary school through adult education. I am a specialist in SAT preparation (both math and verbal) with extensive experience helping many students score significa ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As soon as I reached high school, I became interested in mentoring those younger than me and this passion still carries me. With the guidance of my mother, who has been a teacher and tutor for over 20 years, I began to tutor elementary school children in Math, Science, Writing, and oral presentation skills. My mother, as the founder of Gillin Tutoring Services, trained me on how to tutor most effectively. As a graduate of Duke University, I have had education in a number of subjects including, Mathematics, English/Literature, Spanish, Science (particularly, Biology and Chemistry) as well as the arts.
I love teaching children through unique and innovative methods, whether it be through songs in order to help with memorization or presenting the students with real life situations to navigate through. I am mainly hands on and very visual. I feel that these are ultimately the best ways ... read more

Since I am an engineering student, I have always been interested and excelled in math and science, so I have tutored many kids in all areas of science and mathematics. I have also tutored in Spanish and French. Last year, I worked with a young man who had dyslexia. I have helped kids of all ages, whether at the elementary, high school, or collegiate level.
I am a very patient person, a trait which I believe is very beneficial for a tutor to possess. I am always patient when teaching, and in doing so have succeeded in getting my point across. I like to pass on small tricks and acronyms that I have came up with for many things, some of which I have still retained to this day for my own personal use, not just for school work.

I have always had an interest in English, writing, and Communications. I have tutored students in both English, reading, and writing. In my undergraduate program I earned a BA in English and spent time working as a writer and Sports Editor for my college newspaper, worked as an intern at a newspaper, and worked in Public Relations as Communications Manager for a nonprofit organization.
I believe that any child can learn and that we all have various learning styles. We just have to find the style that is best for optimum learning. Some of us are visual learners and some are auditory learners, and many of us learn with a combination of styles. I believe that by working with students to finding their unique and individual learning style a tutor is the most effective.

A Little Bit About Me...

I like helping people. I love working with children and am a very easygoing person. I feel all children given the right push can succeed in whatever they put their mind to. I like to teach young minds and mold them into educators of the future.
I have much experience in mathematics and science. My degree was attained through Chemistry, Physics and Atmospheric Science classes. My mathematics background is strong. I got a 790 on my math portion of my SAT, completed college Calculus I, II, and III, differential equations, and even a bit of statistics.
