Experience Summary
My strongest subject is algebra (commutative, homological, or abstract). My degree is in general mathematics so I experienced most forms of mathematics at a high college level. I began tutoring as a freshman in high school. Professionally, I have spent ten years in management in four different industries. I have been told that I explain things well.
Teaching Style
1) Give the person you are turtoring an opportunity to tell you where they are having a problem.
2) While working through problems monitor the person you are tutoring to see if there are other problems.
3) Suggest changes. Never force them. There isn't one correct way. Make a suggestion on how to improve and explain why you are making the suggestion.
4) Do multiple versions of a similar problem. The first time I will complete the problem, explaining each step. The next time the person I am tutoring will guide me through the problem, telling me what to do next. Then the person being tutored will do the problem while I observe.
5)Let them make mistakes. Explain why it is a mistake and show them how to detect it in the future.
