Logic Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Torrington, CT

As a tutor my strength lies in supporting, motivating and encouraging students along with teaching them the importance of discipline and staying focused on studies. I have noticed that for some students the actual problem is not the subject/curriculum, they need help with time management and study skills. I try to teach students how to learn better and faster by managing their time efficiently and by organizing how they study. Hi! I am a certified math teacher with 20 years of experience working with students from elementary school through college. I have a Master's degree in Mathematics and a Master's degree in Education also. I am very comfortable teaching all different age groups and enjoy working with students one-on-one. One-on-one teaching helps me understand their strengths and weaknesses. I try to listen to my students' needs and evaluate that first, and then based on that I prov

I’m a hard and determined worker with a passion for teaching. I have found that there is a great satisfaction in encouraging students of all learning levels to develop their knowledge of the materials presented to them and to be responsible to continue to build on their mastery of different levels of math. I have an outgoing and creative personality that has been made stronger through my world travel for business. This has helped me gain knowledge and respect for the many different cultures. I have an adventurous nature and like to explore new and creative ideas that I plan to incorporate into my students’ learning experiences. I have a strong engineering and management background and I plan to bring in my real life experiences of leading, motivating, mentoring and help empower my students to reach their most challenging goals in learning math.

Hey! My names Bethy! I'm 13 years old and in 8th grade. I've been tutoring since I was in 5th grade. I can tutor all ages in almost any subject. Last year I had the highest GPA in my whole school! I love teaching anyone who is willing to learn! I also teach children with learning disabilities and special needs. I am very laid back and flexible. While I might be calm I only have 3 rules, 1. Be respectful, 2. the words "I can't" are not allowed :), and 3. have fun! I tend to create games based on the skills that are being taught and I'm not into lecturing, my approach is very hands. Learning can be fun!

I've been tutoring math for three years. I explain the solution slowly and clearly, also give some similar example for student to practice. The only way to improve the math is keeping doing practice. Once you are familiar with the rule of that kind question, you will not be afraid to face math any more.

My educational career was full of challenges that have given me a broad basis of knowledge for tutoring. In high school, I earned the International Baccalaureate (IB) diploma. I subsequently earned a BS in Ceramic Engineering and an MBA in Operations Management. I started tutoring in high school when I managed a literacy program that paired high school students with students at a local elementary school. In college, I tutored math and physics through a formal program at the high school. After graduation, I continued to tutor, and in the past six years, I have tutored many students in all levels of mathematics (elemenatary, high school, and college). I also tutor students in college test preparation (SAT and ACT), spanish,science, English, and reading. I enjoy working closely with students and their families to achieve the student's goals. I know that the definition of "success" ca

I loved my time in the classroom helping children to love learning both math and science. I believe that all children can love those subjects although many find them difficult. It takes a patient person who loves to teach and learn themselves to teach the difficult processes of Math and science and that person is me. After studying medicine for 3 years in college I decided that I wanted to be a teacher. I was lucky enough to land a job where I taught both science and Math.I was a teacher for 3 years. I taught Algebra, Precalculus, Chemistry and Biology at the high school level.

My teaching style varies on the math background that the student has. Generally I try to provide the student with all the theory behind a concept (that I notice they are having a problem grasping)and challenge him or her to apply the knowledge in solving a problem by giving them clues as necessary. Successful application of definitions and theorems in problem solving is what demonstrates that the student has mastered the material. I've always had a passion for learning math as well as teaching it to students in an individual basis. I have received a B.S degree in mathematics from U-Conn and as an undergraduate I have also challanged myself by taking graduate level math courses in abstract algebra and Topology. I find tutoring math very fulfilling. I have worked as a substitute teacher for a year focusing mainly on math and physics classes at the high school level and I've also tutored h

I have a great desire to enrich a child’s life through the art of learning. I firmly believe that each and every child has the potential to succeed. As a candidate I consider myself to be very patient and understanding of a child’s needs and will approach his/her learning experience with a careful approach to satisfy his/her needs individually. I always strive to make a difference in a child’s life because that is what I do best as a parent of two precious daughters. As a mother of two precious daughters I know how important it is as a parent to see your child achieve academic success. I have many years of experience working with children. I obtained a Bachelor’s degree in Corporate Communications in 1993 and have a minor in Child Psychology and Spanish.

I knew that I wanted to share what I was passionate about with others before I completed my undergraduate program in biology with certification cum laude.  Once I earned my bachelors of science degree, I pursued my masters program slowly having the opportunity to incorporate my love for the ocean and earning an Eisenhower Fellow at the same time.  My masters of science degree is in the natural sciences.  Although I have taught science and math to both public and private classes, grades 7-12, today, I am the vocational/educational specialist for a group home for young mothers as well as a town tutor. If provided the opportunity to succeed, students will follow.  According to the movies, "If you build it, they will come."  I am a firm believer in modeling.  I lead by example.  I am patient, easily reachable, approachable, and a firm believer in every child's success.  I realize there are m

With a B.S in Math i was eager to enlight students on this educational path. After graduating from ECSU, I Substitute Teach and Tutor students in Math and other subjects throught the city of Hartford. It was a pleasure to have one of the most hated subject being loved by lot of my students. With the need of a full-time position i accepted a career path in the Mortgage Industry. Currently this field is drastically declining, so I am heading to pursue another path back into the educational field. A good Teacher must aslo be a good listener. I open and listen to students mistakes and weakneses and input my best to assist. Every student is capable of learning, but it is obvious that some is more advance than others. I patiently work and try my best to assist a student from not falling behind even if it takes away my personal time. To get the material clear across the board to every student i
