Physics Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Tonto Basin, AZ

I have taught Physics on the high school level for over ten years and at DeVry University for over twenty years. I am able to break a complex problem into small, discrete steps which the students seem to appreciate. An approach I use in my teaching is the I rarely will tell the student outright what to do to get the answer or just what the answer is. I will quiz the student in the steps they took to reach the point where they are stuck. If there is a misstep they took in their work, I will ask them leading questions in an effort to help them discover where they went astray, followed by questions to help them realize the step they should have taken. Then I will guide them through reasoning out what the remaining steps for solving the problem should be. When I was teaching high school freshman Algebra I, I develop a strategy for mastering word problems that was successful to the p

My interests and abilities in mathematics, physics, soccer, cycling, and triathlon is a result of developing in a gender-free environment. My upper-level college mathematics courses were my first experience with just how much women were underrepresented in the sciences. I was genuinely intimidated and surprised by the lack of females in my classes. During those years, I questioned my ability more often than not. Although I did not earn straight A’s, I did learn that I am equally as able to succeed in mathematics as the males that continue to surround me. I can now take on challenges and overcome gender stereotypes that would limit most women. I was fortunate to learn that gender, race, religion, etc. does not dictate where one succeeds. I enjoy making mathematics understandable to anyone. Often times I work with students who are overwhelmed by mathematics “foreign language” and are just

My experience consists of tutoring college students in the subject areas I learned for a Bachelors degree in Health Science. This consists of: General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physics, Physiology, Anatomy, and Biology. I also have experience teaching children soccer. I played collegiate soccer and I was involved in many soccer camps teaching children the basic skills of soccer as well as communication and self-esteem. I now have been accepted to teach adults at the Church I go to. This is on Thursdays and my title is volunteer teacher. The teaching style I have is really a mix of all styles. I was exposed to teaching classes as an undergraduate student. One class really taught me the importance of building a teaching style with all of the learning styles involved. Whether it is visual, kinesthetic, audio, or reading, a good teacher will take the time to incorporate all of th

I have been a math and physics tutor at Gateway Community College since 2008 and I have experience in various different styles of tutoring. All the students that I have tutored have seen at least 2 letter grade increase. I love to use examples when I teach and I encourage the students to find their own mistakes. I think that once they can find their mistakes, they have a good grasp of the material. Through my experience with various different types of students, I have learned to adapt to their way of learning. Some may prefer practice while others may prefer hands on methods.

I have helped many students with various subjects in which I specialize. I've aided people of Hispanic origin to speak and understand English, as well as help English speakers with their Spanish speaking skills. For example, I currently work in a housekeeping office and have daily "students" who ask me specific questions in regards to English. In addition, I have trained managers in my department in basic housekeeping vocabulary, as well help to improve their conversational skills. Because I've always been advanced in Mathematics, I've always helped fellow classmates and members of sports teams with their skills in this area as well. This is inclusive to my older brother, who currently is enrolled in a Statistics and Probability course with which I offer my assistance. I feel that my patience, attentiveness, and ability to relate to specific students help me with my style of tutoring.

I obtained a B.S. in Chemical Engineering which provides me with a strong base in math, physics and chemistry and am a licensed professional engineer (PE) in Chemical Engineering and Environmental Engineering each of which required passing a rigorous 8-hour exam. As a result, I've gained valuable experience in preparing for and successfully passing tests as well as applying math and science principles to solve real-world problems in a practical manner. I have also tutored math and science in the past and helped students succeed by explaining difficult concepts in an easy to understand manner. I truly enjoy teaching students and helping them overcome their problems and empowering them with skills that will allow them to be successful even after our tutoring sessions have concluded. I am especially committed to math and science education and want to help students unlock their full potenti

As a graduate student studying biology at the New Mexico Highlands University (NMHU), I was a teaching assistant (TA) assisting in preparing and conducting laboratory experiments in biology with undergraduate students at NMHU. I prepare laboratory research outlines before sessions and grade laboratory reports. I also have a one-to-one teaching experience, teaching students math, chemistry and biology, thus, enabling me with a pre-existing experience to assit students to achieve a better education.I am good in french and can teach. I always make my teaching very easy and simple for special needs students to follow. I have taught students in classrooms and understand that all students can never be the same in terms of understanding. Thus, I usually use material facts and make a story line for student to understand a concept. . Education is the ultimate goal for everychild in our time to me

I remember as a student, often times I could not fully understand a new subject until I learned “why”. I believe that most children (and young adults), being inquisitive in nature, need to know “why”, not just “what”, “who”, or whatever else is important to learn. “Why” makes things make sense, and allows connections to be made to related concepts. When teaching, I try to get students to understand “why” as much as possible. I also try to get them to do as much as possible, make them work for the answers, instead of spoon feeding them. I am very patient, and will take the time to teach a concept as many times as necessary, without getting frustrated, and without frustration the student. I have tutored math twice, in two different environments. The first time was to native Spanish speakers who were studying to earn their GED. Tutoring was done in small groups, once or twice per

I like teaching one-on-one but I do have classroom experience from substitute teaching. I teach by example and encourage the student to ask as many questions as possible. I typically will not go to another topic until the current one is understood. In terms of teaching math, my style incorporates less use of a calculator and more "thinking". For example, instead of just saying "memorize that anything to the zero power equals 1", I will teach the student WHY that is through examples. I explain to the student ahead of time what is expected in terms of preparation for the session and any work that is assigned. I am a meteorologist and have worked in many sectors including Radio, TV and Aviation. I currently run an online retail business using the eBay platform. I also have substitute teaching experience on the Middle and High School levels. Through the 1990's I consistently was called each

I find that teaching works best if you tailor the material to your audience - i.e. you don't want to lose them OR bore them. Use what they know as a foundation to build on to teach new concepts. If material is difficult or unfamiliar to your class it's important to be prepared in advance with several approaches to get the material across. Review material periodically to reinforce confidence in the students and always make sure they have a firm grasp on material before moving on. I'm a certified Air Force Instructor with two years of experience as a Unit Training Manager. I have 3 years of experience teaching adults how to build computers and install/configure operating systems and applications.
