Calculus I Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Whigham, GA

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. :)

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). Also do test preparation (ASVAB, ACT, SAT, GMAT,and GRE). 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.

I received my BS degree in Math Education in Spring of 2001 at Florida State University. While at FSU I worked in the Math Help Center for three months. I taught math for two years and decided to choose a different career path in Actuarial Mathematics. I am currently finishing my master's degree at Florida State University. For two years I tutored math at all levels at Sylvan Learning Center in Tallahassee. In that time I learned different things related to presenting the math in a way that can be understood regardless of the level of the student. Mostly I focus on explaining the most important steps of a particular skill and then guiding the student to developing their understanding of that skill. 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

I am Marthe Desir, a second year Civil Engineering at Florida A&M University. I am a recent Math tutor at my University, I enjoy tutoring Math, it is a passion. Becoming a teacher is not my goal, but helping my classmates and other students have always been a great experience. I started tutoring students since I was 11 years old, and it has become an habit for me. I enjoy helping others, it makes me smile when I help students understand Math, and they pass their tests. I understand Mathematics is not an easy subject, but when I tutor I try to make it simple for my students to understand.

I own my own science consulting firm and like to dedicate a certain percentage of my time to education and public outreach projects including teaching, mentoring, and tutoring. I have taught high school and college students on and off since 1986 and have had several students go on to VERY successful careers, perhaps one of the best ways to evaluate ones ability as a teacher. My most recent success (2006-07) was a 7th grade C and B student who had straight A's after only two months of working together and finished 7th grade with straight A's. Her confidence level increased dramatically (as noted by her family and friends) and she now has set her sights on Harvard as a real possibility someday. I tailor my teaching style to the student. Throughout the years I have recognized that each student has a different way of learning and I make it my goal to adapt to them, to try to reach them in a

I achieved an AA degree at Florida Community College at Jacksonville. I am currently continuing my education at Florida State University where I am pursuing a Bachelors Degree in Biology. I will graduate in Spring of 2010. After, I will continue to Dental School to become a dentist. I enjoy teach with all different age levels. Most recently, I taught 4th grade science through the FSU Teach Program. It was fun and really showed me how to teach students and make the lessons engaging and fun. Its important to keep the child focused. My goal is to make sure a student learns something new everyday that she/he will remember.

I have extensive experience tutoring college students in mathematics and physics. I have acted as a teacher's assistant at New College of Florida and worked in the TCC math lab. I have also tutored these subjects privately. I believe patience is key when teaching difficult concepts. I also strive to present ideas from varied perspectives. For example, many mathematical constructions can be understood either geometrically, algebraically, or analytically. If a student has trouble with one type of explanation, presenting an alternative technique often leads to a deeper understanding of the material.

While obtaining my Master's degree I had the chance to study many different subjects as well as tutor student from Kindergarten to undergraduates in many areas of study. I received 2 Bachelors degrees in International Affairs and Art History and studied several different languages that will make me well rounded tutor. I have excellent writing and editing skills as well as experience tutoring all ages in a variety of subjects. I have a love for education that I would like the chance to pass on to others. I am a very hands on and visual teacher that believes the best way to learn is by seeing and doing things yourself. In order to provide the best teaching expereince I would teach through multiple examples and putting difficult subject matter into a context the student can understand and visualize. I believe in working with each student to develop a system that works best for the individua

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

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 psychology, I understand that children are very sensitive to negative feedback. I have experience in how to give constructive criticism to children and how this can only encourage them to do better. 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 psychol

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 answer any question or go over a topic in more detail. When it comes down to it, I emphasize that a tutoring session is not for me to become a better tutor, but the style and material of the session should be chosen by the student. This means that I come with a variety of options and am prepared to switch the plan as soon as asked. My goal when working with a student is to give them more confidence in the subject and to see improvement each session and overall. 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

I am a recent graduate of two degrees, a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics from Edward Waters College and a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering from Florida A&M University. I was able to obtain both degrees under a Dual Degree Program that was arranged between the two institutions. Throughout the completion of my degrees, I tutored college students in various math areas (College Algebra, Trig, Linear Algebra, etc). The organization I tutored under was called "TRIO (Student Academic Support)” I even had personal tutor jobs on the side (ages 6 on up). I have a knack of finding where the weakness is in a student and I try my best to help improve it. Communication and patience are some of my greatest assets. Motivation and continuous encouragement is what I provide to each student I tutor. The goal is to make the student comfortable with each problem and make sure they have a clea

My experience includes tutoring students from grades K-12. I was a staff at the Boys & Girls Club in Central Florida and I would help students who had questions about their homework assignments, give spelling quizzes for students with spelling words and also listen to students read daily. I’ve also tutored my fellow classmates in college in Pre-Calculus, Statistics, Trigonometry, and Chemistry. Since I’ve earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Biomedical Science, I prefer to tutor students dealing with Math and/or Science. However, I am also able to tutor students in the Arts as well because my coursework in the last four years have included quite a few research papers and lab reports. I would call myself a demonstrator or facilitator. First, I very calmly demonstrate and walk a student through the process of solving a similar problem. Then, I ask the student if they have any questions about the
