Calculus I Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Yarnell, AZ

Math was never an issue for me, I was always ahead of the curve in my math scores, and when I got the chance to relate that math ability to economics, it all made sense. Economics is second-nature to me. Economics puts calculus into real-world situations. Breezed through it in high school and first couple years of college, realized it would be an excellent thing for me to major in. Economics is all about logic, and being a logical person, economics always came easy. When you think logically, you are thinking economically. In economic problems, you always assume the agents in the problem will act in their best interest.

During the last eight years I have worked full-time in vocational and adult education environments. In addition to ESL, I have taught VESL (Vocational English as a Second Language), and GED Preparation. I have lived outside of the U.S. for five years. During this time I learned the languages, and engaged in work projects including I.T. Consulting, telecommunications, and graduate studies. My heart is with my students and my assertive style allows students with significant barriers to gain access to employment. Many students have shown their appreciation for quickly passing the GED examinations. I believe each audience deserves the correct teaching style(s). If the student has not reached a high level of education then I hold no opinion of this. I utilize a multi-cultural perspective and my appreciation and understanding of other cultures allows me to assist in the creation of an expe

As an engineering student, I scored A's in 4 Quarters of Calculus, 3 Quarters of Engineering Physics and 1 Quarter each of: Linear Algebra, Differential Equations, and Static and Dynamics. Throughout college, I often tutored other classmates in math, physics, and statics and dynamics to which they and other upper-classmen would marvel. "wow, you really understand this don't you?". My 64-year old Physics professor pulled me aside one day and said I should major in Physics because in his 40+ years of teaching in Germany and the US he had never seen anyone who understood it as I do. I have composed and taught numerous classes as a professional on topics of time management, organization and management, process engineering, and programming. I taught one semester of basic computer skills at the University of Kansas and often tutored, or assisted, our 5 daughters in their High School and C

As a graduate of F.A.U, I was very much driven to learn programming and prograaming languages, applying Mathematics and Algorithms to real time problems. During my 30 years as a consultant I taught several classes related to game theory and applied Calculus. I am current a member of Toastmasters international and enjoy public speaking as well as instructing and mentoring other club members. I've lived in Prescott since 1994 and enjoy any opportunity to help and serve the community. I like instructing using the latest visual tools. I like to make math alive, taking the abstractness of calculus and transforming it into something that is visual. I enjoy working with gifted middle school or high school age students.

I have found that there is nothing so rewarding as that moment when a subject 'clicks' for a student. By staying positive and adaptive I believe it is possible to guide students to finding solutions on their own. I work at finding new ways to approach common stumbling blocks and try to show students how applicable math is to everyday life. If it had not been for a few extraordinary teachers, I may not have felt it possible to accomplish what I have. Teachers should be positive and inpirational and I always strive to attain that goal. I received my B.S. in physics and went on to work at a Community College tutoring math. I enjoyed this work immensely and received excellent reviews from the students. While working at the college I also tutored middle school and high school students privately. In High School I took a class on Society and the Child which involved tutoring english and math tw

I have always enjoyed tutoring students and seeing them "get" the subjects we are touching on. The look on their face during this moment is priceless. I fully understand that everyone learns things in different ways. While one student may be able to memorize and understand facts one way, say by repetition, another student may learn the information by understanding the background and context that it comes from. I am very patient and flexible with students and realize that if they do not understand the material that it is not their fault, but rather I need to try a different approach with them. A good education is not only valuable in life, but I feel that students gain self confidence when they see their grades improve and they actually understand their class work. This is exactly why I love helping them with their school work. In high school I was able to tutor students in all subjects r

I have helped many students with various subjects in which I specialize. I've aided people of Hispanic origin to speak and understand English, as well as help English speakers with their Spanish speaking skills. For example, I currently work in a housekeeping office and have daily "students" who ask me specific questions in regards to English. In addition, I have trained managers in my department in basic housekeeping vocabulary, as well help to improve their conversational skills. Because I've always been advanced in Mathematics, I've always helped fellow classmates and members of sports teams with their skills in this area as well. This is inclusive to my older brother, who currently is enrolled in a Statistics and Probability course with which I offer my assistance. I feel that my patience, attentiveness, and ability to relate to specific students help me with my style of tutoring.

I received my Masters and Doctorate degrees will teaching and coaching. Many of my students have gone on to become doctors and lawyers as well as TEACHERS!

I love teaching and working with children of all ages. I believe in encouraging children to discover what they are to learn instead of rote learning for most things, and I also believe in establishing automaticity for some tasks, such as math facts and geometry theorems. I believe that all children are capable of learning with the right approach. It is important to persist in teaching a concept from different angles until the child "gets it." A good educator can make a world of difference to a child. I am a strong proponent of reinforcing a child's strengths through positive encouragement and exhibiting an enthusiasm for the subject at hand to foster interest on the part of the student. I have a degree in Math and I am currently 3/4 complete for a Masters in Elem. Education w/Certif.

I became a teacher because I enjoy mentoring and helping others attain their goals. I have a passion for Mathematics, Software technology and Business applications of either or both subjects. I offer a pupil the twin goals of attaining the competence and character needed to succeed in their chosen field. I demonstrate the need for teacher and student to operate with empathy and active listening while we support each other in mastery of our tasks. My colleagues and principals normally appreciate my suggestions for improving “best practices “. I am an innovator with a passion for excellence. I believe in most fields one needs to attain the stage of good before one seeks better. I shall continue to focus on gaining a greater, more empathetic participation by all in social as well as learning interactions in my classroom. The student needs to assess themselves, and make a commitment to acqui
