Trigonometry Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Tallahassee, FL

I like to break down whatever skill I'm teaching in the simplest form at first. This means explaining the concept of the skill in a way that the student can understand what it is we are trying to do. I also try to use a pictorial representation of the skill if that is needed. After that I'll show them how I work a problem with that particular skill so they can see firsthand what the thought process is and the steps that are needed to use that particular skill whether it is adding fractions or solving equations, etc. Then I'll give the student a problem to do on their own while I guide them through the steps. If they get off on a particular step I'll correct them immediately and get them on the right path. Once I feel they understand what is going on and how to work a problem, I'll give them a problem to do without me watching them and see if they can get the answer right by themsel

Whatever I feel works best with the student. Currently I attend Florida State University and I am majoring in Elementary Education. I have worked with many children throughout the years including a summer camp which I helped students attending summer school with homework and volunteering in 1st and 2nd grade classrooms where I worked with children.

My style is informal. My goal is to have my students learn by doing. I have been told that I am able to simplify and "uncomplicate" difficult subjects to help my students learn. Have tutored for seven years in Tallahassee. Clients included high school, college and graduate students. Specialize in mathematics (algebra through calculus (including differential equations), statistics, economics, and business (accounting and finance).

I have a good experience of tutoring hundreds of students over a decade period of time. I have tutored from first grade student to bachelors' degree students. I have formally taught students from grades four to ten for six months as a science teacher. Recently, I helped my wife in Anatomy and Physiology I and II and Lab and College Algebra. She got straight A's in them upgrading her GPA. Most importantly, my tutoring helped my students to uplift their self-esteem, confidence and to accept learning as a process which can be made more pleasant and simple. :)

My philosophy on education consists of repetition, consistency of lessons/homework assignments, and active participation amongst the students that would be expected and required. The class would have assignments that would not call for memorization, but for critical and analytic assessments that causes children to think outside of the regular norms. Group assignments encourage team work and repetition that does not become memorization but something that comes natural to ones ability. Repetition of assignments will allow the individual to explore different tactics and objectives for different courses to apply this to what one already knows. In order to provide the most efficient means of productivity, regular homework and class assignments will be given accordingly. Worksheets would be provided for students to do in class as a pre-requisite for their homework for the night. A

I have been working with youth for over ten years. As a private music instructor and substitute teacher I have had the opportunity to work with students K-12 with a wide array of abilities. During the school year of 2009-2010 I was a para-professional in a Kindergarten PDD class (pervasive development disorder/autism) where I helped administer IEP directed lessons for 8 children on the spectrum. I have developed lesson plans for both my private students and the music production programs I've directed for the past 4 years. I have subbed in all subjects and can compensatory teach/tutor in Math, English, History, and Science at an elementary and middle school level. I really enjoy teaching and working with students and continue to develop new ways to make learning fun and engaging. Focusing on each student independently, I differentiate instruction based on each individual's learning s

Throughout my undergraduate years, I knew that educating youth was something I was very passionate about so I made sure to not ignore my passion. I completed a minor in Education including such courses as: Classroom Reading, Evaluation and Measurement in Education, Core Classroom Management Strategies, Intro to Special Education, and Young Adolescence. Also, I have had several hands-on experiences including, an opportunity to tutor students one-on-one at an elementary school, and to serve as a classroom assistant at both an elementary and middle school. I am a very attentive person who reaches children where they are with respect to learning. I prefer to differentiate instruction based on a child's learning style, comprehension level, and prior knowledge. I am a very positive, motivational person who gives lots of positive reinforcements during the learning process.

During my four years at Notre Dame, I majored in mathematics and gained alot of experience in various areas of math. In addition, Notre Dame requires everyone to take a broad range of subjects for general credit and so I have learned skills in writing and grammar through work on several research papers. In my spare time, I tutored elementary age kids with homework and this last summer, I spent five weeks teaching primary school math in Uganda. Lastly, for the last three years, I worked as both a group tutor and an individual tutor for the First Year of Studies program at Notre Dame. I tutored freshman in both Calculus I and II and feel very comfortable working as a tutor in any setting. Since every student learns differently, I spend time getting to know their style and have found success in the past using several examples of problems, asking leading questions, and being prepared to answ

I was a teacher for a year in the 2007-2008 school year. I taught grades 3-5 and most of my students were labeled with Specific Learning Disabilities. For the past two years I have worked as a Speech and Language therapist between two special centers for students with Emotional Behavior Disorders. While providing therapy I would work on Reading, Language and Grammar skills. I also have experience tutoring for the past year. I really like individualized teaching and prefer to work in small groups or one-on-one. I believe in providing multiple teaching methods to include all learning styles. I do my best to make my lessons relatable and enjoyable. I feel very comfortable around all sorts of students, especially those with disabilities. I am very friendly and patient. I really enjoy teaching children and I find it to be extremely rewarding.

I believe that math should be fun both for the tutor and for the student who are trying to learn. I also believe that teaching style has a lot to do with how well children do in school and how motivated they in learning. I love to teach math and to change the way students look at it. Math needs to be not just a boring or hard course, but a fun and on the same time a little challenging subject. My goal in teaching is to make the students, whoever they are, feel comfortable in learning new concepts and asking questions. I want them to feel motivated to learn new things in math everyday. Everyone is capable of learning and every student has the potential of achieving academic success. Currently, I am a junior at Florida State University, in Florida. I am working on my BS degree in nutrition as a third year student and a minor in psychology. I have also received my AA degree from Lake City

Although my bachelor's degree is in psychology, my interests throughout my education have been to study children; how they learn, how they think, and what I can do to help them better themselves. Because of this interest, I have tutored children for a couple of years some years back, and was recognized for my efforts. I have excelled in mathematics, English, and psychology, and love to pass this knowledge on to others. I also have three cousins who have come to the United States from Taiwan to learn and I have spent an extensive amount of time teaching them ESL. My teaching style is mostly form-fitted to each child. I assess what level they are at, how quickly they learn, and what areas they need help in or should strengthen. I cannot stress the importance of patience when it comes to tutoring children, which I have an abundance of, having taught various ages. Also, having studied ps

I enjoyed tutoring while I was in college working in the math lab for three years. However, now that I have been actually teaching my very own students I have a better understanding of the basics of mathematics and I am a much better student myself. I enjoy teaching and working with students. I now understand that all children learn on their own level and at their own pace. I am very easy going, but I insist that students do their homework and stay after school for extra help if they need it. I grade work off of understanding. It is not always finding the correct answer, but the process to get to the correct answer. I believe that a good teacher makes a good student and I strive to be that good teacher and student.

Due to the influence of my parents, who are both math educators, I have always wanted to teach. My first job was on the faculty of a teachers’ university in China, where I taught computer science courses. In 1996 I came to the United States to study mathematics, and earned a Master's degree from Indiana University. While I was studying at IU, I was a teaching assistant and also tutored during the summer. Since then I have taught Algebra I, Algebra II and Geometry at a high school, as well as Intermediate Algebra and Finite Math at the college level. In addition, I have experience as a classroom instructor and as a tutor with Kaplan, Inc. I love to help people of all ages with their math. It is really rewarding when you show someone how to solve their problems, and then see them smile and feel relieved. I am friendly, considerate, thorough, and easy going. My belief is that when the rig
