Math is one of my top subjects!

I double-majored in biology in chemistry in undergrad, so the field of science and medicine is my first love and my strength. I have also received a Masters of Public Health Degree in Epidemiology, and have since completed my 2nd year of medical school. I have always had a strong affinity for math and english as well. I have a published thesis paper that was constructed and presented as required for my masters curriculum. I have been tutoring since I was in high school, and have tutored elementary to college level courses.
I have a relaxed, stress-free teaching style, while staying on task and topic. I make sure the pupils really understand the material by breaking things down to the basics, and reviewing the foundations. After reviewing and application of the concepts, I have my students switch roles and "teach" me the material. I believe if you can explain the material to someone ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Teaching is my passion. Throughout grade school and college, I have often found myself doing some form of teaching. In middle and high school, my teachers would ask me to help other students who were not grasping the material by peer tutoring. In college, I chose to dedicate a few hours a week to assist students with applied mathematics through both paid and volunteer services. Also, during the seasonal school breaks I substitute at local elementary and middle schools which exposes me to handling classroom duties. With all of these experiences, it is easy to see that teaching comes naturally. More importantly, I am competent in applied math and science and can skillfully communicate these complex concepts to other people. As a graduating Electronics Engineering student, I have successfully passed all my math classes that range from Calculus I to Probability and Statistics. Along wi ... read more

Teaching is more than a job for me, I really enjoy helping my students. I believe that all children have the ability and the desire to learn. Some students need a little more attention and enouragement. I enjoy getting to know my students so that I can find their strengths and weaknesses and build on them.
I began my experience teaching at a small school. I taught 7/8 grade general science, ninth grade earth and space science, and tenth grade biology. I worked at this school for two years, before relocating. I then worked with a tutoring service. I tutored elementary students in a private setting (in homes) in reading and math. I also taught seventh grade science at another small school.
