A Little Bit About Me...

Logical lecturing periodically within explanations poised by pupils based on material being studied.
I have never formally tutored anyone but I have helped my younger siblings and classmates with homework before and I am confident in my abilities to communicate information in a logical and well ordered manner so that a pupil will be able to understand, comprehend, and apply the information in a testing setting.

I am not young enough to know everything

I agree with the concept that each person learns a bit differently, and even more so that as a tutor, I should try and find the most effective style for my tutee. My academic career also taught me the importance of setting time limits for each action item; and switching tasks to keep the mind sharp.
You will see from my resume below that I have strong experience in math, science, engineering and computers. It is worth mentioning that I am also skilled in english (5 on my AP World Lit exam) and art (voted most artistic in my senior high school class). I have also tutored at least 4 students in the past, and found it to be a successful and rewarding experience. Katharine P.

Math and Science Tutoring

In terms of online tutoring. I make use of a headset microphone and a touch tablet. As well as many free online applications, such as a whiteboard, Skype, and educational resources. During session I prefer to use the course work and text assigned to the student. Doing so allows for the structure of our sessions to easily mesh with those of the course.
While obtaining my B.S. I tutored through a community development after school program for a year; in which I helped 4th-8th graders with their math and reading homework. For the past 3 years I have worked as a private math and science tutor helping student from 5th grade up through college level. In the Spring of 2011&2012 I worked as an in-school tutor bringing elementary school students up to grade level in math and reading. These past 2 years, I worked online as a Math, and English tutor through various servi ... read more

ACT is one of my top subjects! 35

Experience: Standardized Testing Scores: ACT - 35 SAT - 2300 SAT II Math II - 800 SAT II Chemistry - 800 SAT II Biology - 790 5's on all AP Tests listed above. I've been tutoring for the better part of two years. Through that time, I have gained an earnest understanding of what it means to be an effective mentor. I stand by my belief that knowing the information and teaching the information are two entirely different things. When I tutor, I use techniques that get directly to the heart of the information. I primarily tutor ACT/SAT prep, Math to Calculus III, and all the Sciences. I am also knowledgeable on the college application process and can help with editing papers, developing a resume, or just serve as a guiding hand through a crucial time.
Depending on the subject, I utilize from my own academic career tools that I found were the most effective and m ... read more

My teaching style is entirely dependent on who I'm teaching. I try to prod and ask leading questions, while also looking for how it is I can relate the subject matter to the student. I consider it a failure of mine if I am ever forced to recommend a student memorizes something that they ought to understand on a deeper level. I consider it a great success and point of pride when I find a new way to explain a concept to someone who couldn't relate to it in the same way I do.
I have earned a BS and an MS in Aerospace Engineering. My most recent coursework was focused on Aerospace Propulsion systems- work which relies heavily on my background in Math, Physics, and Chemistry. I have always been a teacher at heart. It was often to the detriment of my own homework completion rate, as I would be much more interested in both solving the problems and helping my classmates understand how it w ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Although I enjoy research and have developed a strong background in education, I find the most joy when presenting new information to my peers or finding small opportunities to teach science lessons. It is my personal belief that all students have the ability to succeed in their personal goals, and it is my job as an educator to help students reach and exceed their potential. As a tutor, I look forward to working with students to not only understand the basic concepts of science, but also develop a sense of passion for learning and a work ethic that will serve them the rest of their lives. I am hard working and passionate about teaching others about science, and look forward to showing students more about the world around them.
My journey to becoming a medical student at the Chicago Medical School was driven by both a quest for excellence and a life-long love of science and learnin ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Students must be challenged, not coddled. Students at all levels need to be pushed to find their limits and then move beyond them. Only then can they achieve real growth. We must use education as a tool to educate the next generation not only for employment but also for citizenship. In so doing, we need to take into account historical precedents and objective reality. Our students need more than simply reading comprehension and basic math skills. One of the chief contributions we can make to our students is teaching critical thinking. Students must be encouraged to think for themselves and not mindlessly parrot stock answers. After reasoned analysis, they must find their own truth.
I have a number of useful skills and abilities that I bring to a classroom. I have a very broad set of educational areas in which I am comfortable. I have a B.S. in Biology, a B.A. in History, a ... read more
