I am a patient teacher who works diligently to ensure the student's confidence and strength in the subject matter. I believe that there are many ways to approach a topic, and it is my duty to find the approach that allows the student to full understand. I worked to instill the skills the student's needs through thorough explanations, practice, and encouragement. I have six years of tutoring/teaching experience, helping students come to a well developed understanding of the subjects they struggle with. Part of this experience includes a year teaching English in a classroom setting in South Korea. Through these positions I worked with students from the ages of 6 to 22, with varying levels of expertise and learning styles. Due to this I have developed an ability to work successfully with a wide range of students.

www.logicstudies.com We see education as a meeting of minds, where every participant is on the same level. While a tutor may well have more knowledge of a subject than the student, learning is a communicative and collaborative process; the transmission of ideas can only happen when we acknowledge we each have something to learn from one another. Part of what makes Logic Studies so successful and distinctive is that we refuse to fall into the prescribed teacher-student dynamic. Never condescending and demonstrating mutual respect, the tutors at Logic Studies treat their students as peers, or coequals .

In addition to providing help, I will also teach your student some important study skills regardless of the subject that he/she is studying. I personally believe in studying with the purpose of applying the subject in the real world, and will work with your student to develop a solid purpose for the material, as well as help him/her see how to apply the material. In time, it is my goal that your student will be able to study on his/her own, without my help, and be able to fully comprehend and use the data. I have a background in study skills and educating others, as well as excellent communication skills and a lot of patience. I have done four years of math and chemistry (respectively) during high school, including elementary calculus and quantum mechanics. I have also done three years of Spanish with and without "Rosetta Stone" (total of one year with "Rosetta Stone"). I have also done

Helping students be successful is the most important aspect of teaching, in my opinion. Each student is unique in his or her learning style. A teacher's job is to find the way in which a student learns best and to encourage them to think on their own. Students must think about and discover for themselves in order for learning to be truly meaningful. I am someone who will help guide a student in this direction. I graduated with a BA from Willamette University with a major in history and minors in math and Spanish. I then attended Willamette's MAT program where I earned a Masters in Education with endorsements to teach middle and high school mathematics, social studies and ESOL. I have taught at Woodburn High School for 6 years now in the mathematics department. I have taught a range of mathematical levels: from pre-algebra through Advanced Placement Statistics.

I believe that a good portion of teaching well is listening well. As I listen to my students' needs I am better able to help them through whatever may be frustrating them. I also believe that most every mathematics problem can be approached in multiple ways, and that not every student should be required to learn the same way. I love seeing students succeed, whether it is in the classroom or in an individual setting. Part of that success is building the students' confidence and encouraging them over all achievements, both large and small. I also enjoying getting to know the students and helping math come alive in the areas of life that interest them most. I began tutoring high school and middle school students when I was a college student and high school soccer coach. Upon completion of my degrees and being awarded my teaching certification I began teaching in a high school math cla

I love teaching math and am happy to teach all children who want to learn. I always make myself available for children who need my help. I teach children for understanding rather than memorizing. I believe that all children can learn math… the different between their learning is how their time is spent. I consider myself a patient teacher; I want to see my students succeed, no matter how fast or slow it takes them to learn. During college, I tutored mathematics to elementary and secondary school students. While I was an undergrad student at Srinakarinwirote, I continue tutoring high school students until I earned my master's degree. After college, I taught secondary mathematics for 10 years, then became a doctoral student at Oregon State University. At Oregon State, I worked as a graduate teaching assistant for mathematics and tutored at the math learning center. I am currently a full

Studying applied physics and mathematics at a liberal arts school not only helped me strengthen my mathematical, problem solving, and analytical skills, but also challenged me in writing and critical thinking. Whether writing an assignment for a philosophy class or a laboratory report, I was able to communicate my ideas and conclusions through a combination of written reports as well as quantifying those results with theories and equations. I also improved communicating my ideas verbally by working as a teacher assistant. I was able to work with students in a group or individually and help them through problems. I also graded class assignments and proctored exams. Graduate school fine tuned my analytical and communication skills by taking my analytical skills to a higher level and communicating my conclusions through reports.

I enjoy teaching because I would like to make a difference in people’s lives. I am highly concerned about all children achieving academic success and excellence; therefore, I would offer constructive and creative approach to their learning experience in order to provide them with the best education. I am a very ethical, patient, friendly, and perseverant person, and I enjoy working with other people. I strongly believe in the saying “Tell me and I’ll forget; show me and I may remember, involve me and I’ll understand.” Consequently, my teaching style is based on experiential and participative learning. I graduated from one of the most prestigious universities in Morocco. I have obtained a bachelor in Business and Administration, which broaden my understanding in different fields including math, statistics, probability, accounting, and finance. Moreover, I have learned how to guide and men

Since earning my degree in Math in 1984, I have worked in the Software development field. The last 15 years I have been an independent consultant. I have 2 college age children and 2 elementary age twins. My college age children have both taken math through calculus so I have had many opportunities to tutor them over the years in advanced math. I also did formal math tutoring all through college. I am also a very good writer and would feel comfortable tutoring writing and reading. I have taught Sunday school for 4 years so I do have experience with creating curriculum and teaching in a class setting. I have always loved to teach and have been told by my children that I should have been a teacher. When it comes to math I have found that most people who have trouble with math have simply missed some fundamental along the way. It is extremely rewarding to figure out what that is and fill in

As a graduate of Cedarville University in Ohio, I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Electronic Media. Before I pursued a degree in Media, I pursued a degree in Engineering for 3 semesters. I've taken classes such as Calculus, Physics, and Chemistry in both high school and college. I often unofficially tutored other classmates who were struggling. At the time I switched out of the Engineering major, I had a GPA of 3.05. I was not doing poorly, I was simply looking for something I was more passionate about. I found that in Media. I decided to use that degree to pursue a career in screenwriting, so I am also strong in English and writing. I love interacting with people. I like to think of myself as a people person and I've come to love teaching my classmates when they don't quite understand as well as I do. I think everyone has the ability to learn, it's just a matter of understand how we learn. S

Most of my experience has been with adults as learners--coaching, supervising, teaching groups of staff and colleagues in the mental health field, and now--teaching CPA candidates on what they need to pass the CPA exams. Prior to my work as a CPA and as a manager of human services programs, I was a clinician, working with children and adolescents and their families. I am not sure I have one teaching style. Over the years, I have learned that people learn differently and that the instructor/coach needs to first understand the learner's learning style before trying to teach. I love to see people grow and, personally, I love learning. My people skills and my enjoyment of learning are probably my greatest gifts as a teacher. I have extensive experience as a provider and manager of human services in the field of mental health, and am recognized for my contributions to the field of c

I am most familiar with conversation, as a means of relating information and testing understanding. I think that a through understanding in any subject comes about when a student can recognize the important concepts, and how they relate to each other, and speak those concepts in words which they understand--while gaining the vocabulary and proficiency as each subject demands. Most of all, I am an interested learner, in a variety of subjects, and I am excited to share my interest with others. I have a good sense of when I am being understood, and when I am not. I ask for questions, both so that I can explain myself, and so that that subject might be brought to greater depth. My undergraduate experience has given me both breadth and depth in academic subjects. The curriculum I've studied at St. John's includes 4 years of language (2 Ancient Greek, 2 French); 3 years of laboratory science (
