Pre-Calculus Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Sumter, SC

I do not consider myself a teacher but a helper. In my experience, the Socratic method in which I pose probing questions that unlock the student's knowledge is the strongest approach. A student's retention of the material is strongest when the student can teach it, and that's what I aim for. I break down any material the student doesn't understand into terms that are easier to comprehend. Preparedness is expected on the part of the student. I am not a substitute for independent study, and the sessions should not consist of doing homework. I am a resource best used when students have an understanding of what they do need help with. I have four years of experience as a tutor that I obtained throughout my college experience. Tutoring is a personal joy of mine as I witness students who I've worked with succeed in their academics. It has been the most fulfilling job I've had, and I loo

I am very passionate about teaching and have zeal to see students succeed in whatever education they pursue. In these 24 years, I worked with students of varying abilities. It’s a challenge worth taking helping high need students achieve success and build confidence to become able global citizens. I have good experience of working with challenged students. You need to support them emotionally and academically and motivate them to succeed in their area of interest. I create rapport with them by caring for them and showing great support for their progress. I am quite successful all these years. Every student, every batch is a new challenge and there is no better satisfaction than to see the students becoming vibrant learners and excelling in their career.

During my time at the University of South Carolina, I was a part-time tutor for the athletic department. There, I provided academic assistance in accounting, college calculus and statistics. I use math on a constant basis, as I interned as an auditor at a public accounting firm in Columbia and was an CoOp analyst for Johnson and Johnson. Math is definitely my strong suit and I've always been able to communicate my knowledge effectively to others. In High School I received 5s on both the AB and BC Calculus Advanced Placement exams. When I teach, I like to focus on the conceptual part of the subject before diving into the problem solving aspect. I believe it is essential to understand the significance of the matter, not just go through the motions.

I have always been a math person, even as a little kid. I am currently attending Francis Marion University and double majoring in Mathematics and Finance. In the spring of 2014 I will be taking Calculus III and Multivariable Calculus. I tutor my friends and they love the way I teach compared to their professors or instructors. If I do not initially know how to solve a problem, it will take me a few minutes to learn it, provided that there are notes available. I have also been into music for the past 9 years. I know how to play the piano and any percussion instrument.

All students can success, we just have to understand their needs.It is not about bad students and their environments, it is about us, teachers, how we can direct the student, support the student, and collaborate with the student. Sometimes it is not an easy task, by this is the purpose of an educator- to facilitate learning. Everything depends on us, and we have to find a way. I've got my education( Master's Degree) at the Kharkiv Karazin UNiversity( Ukraine) in teaching mathematics. I'm currently employed by Sumter HIgh School, Sumter, SC. When I just started job, it was a challenging environment, and I had to overcome many challenges, but as time goes by, I become better in my profession( I've got 3 years of teaching mathematics).

I enjoy sharing my knowledge with others and showing them something new. I feel a sense of reward when a student of mine realizes that they have a new concept. When the lightbulb comes on it is the best feeling in the world. I believe that given the right tools and the right environment all students can learn anything that they put their minds to. I am not a dictator in my teaching style, more of a teammate. I work alongside students guiding them to the next step. I am a fan of I do, we do, you do. I show them how to do it, we do it together, and finally they show me that they can do it. I have always had a passion for education and learning. I have always excelled in mathematics from elementary to collegiate levels. I LOVE math. I love to do math and I love to teach math. I was even on a math competition team in middle school.

As a current PhD student desiring to teach at a college level, I am motivated to teach others the valuable skills that I possess. I have tutored college students over a month span and conducted training programs for over 250 employees at my past jobs. I have taught four staff members SAP Accounting system operations for the FI, MM, and GL modules. I have been fortunate to enjoy accounting work experience mixed with training opportunities to empower staff and work efficiency. My teaching style is to provide verbal and written aids to students. I like to provide numerous examples and then allow students to complete a problem on their own. I am very patient and understand that my purpose is to provide assistance to my students and that my student's success is a reflection of me.

I love working with children and have a passion for making the future greater by helping our children be more successful. With a background in dance I have a very creative teaching style with a knack for discovering new ways to learn. I am a very patient person, which allows me to work well with any temperament. I believe children can focus better on learning if their teacher or tutor focuses better on how they learn. Anyone can be successful in their education with the proper direction. All through school I have had a passion for learning. This passion continued into college where I earned two degrees from Columbia College. While earning two Bachelor of Arts degrees in Dance and Religion, I have gained knowledge in critical thinking through applying learning to life, English and grammar through writing papers and reports, and many daily skills acquired through general education cour
