Physics Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Agate, CO

I tutored for three years in college. I am confident in tutoring any math class up to Calculus 2. I am also confident in tutoring any high school science course, especially chemistry. Also, I got very good scores in SAT Math and ACT Math--so if you need help in taking those tests--I can definitely help.

I believe the best way to learn is to ask questions. The best thought process begins with asking the right questions. As a student, I find that knowing the right question was often as important as right answer. Taking this lesson into teaching, I find that getting the student to ask the right question makes all the difference in their understanding. My perspective of teaching is to help the student to find and better understand their own question and which leads the correct answers. As a lifelong learner I understand the importance of an effective teacher. I have been teaching and assisting college level classes for 2 years as a Graduate Teaching Assistant. During this time I have taught 6 classes consisting of introductory microbiology, microbial genetics and general biology. This experience has allowed me to develop my own teaching style and led to a greater understanding of both sides

For 11 years that i have been in school i have excelled in the fields shown and have helped my friends and others succeed in those fields. Most of the kids that i have helped have passed there classes and have gone to excel in higher classes. i am only human so ill make mistakes and am always willing to see that and accept help. this builds a respect and allows me to greater help the student in question. i take a more relaxed route of teaching. i have found that if you sit there and point out faults and appear like you expect them to get it right on the first try it will turn the student away from you and cause them to hate the subject and ultimately fail. i take a more friendly route. talk about myself admit faults that i have when they appear. i try to become friends with the student in question and add fun with learning. if there is something specific that is needed extra attention t

I have always wanted to teach. While in high school, I spent half of my school day being a teacher's assistance at an elementary school. I started my college experience at Adams State College in the Education department. During my initial years in college, I completed multiple teaching courses including: Intro to Education, Teaching Exceptional Students in a Regular Classroom, and Child Development. I changed degrees to broaden my opportunities but never lost my desire to teach. With my bachelor's degree in Computer Science and a minor in Mathematics, I learned to break down complex concepts into understandable pieces. I tutored many classmates throughout every level of my education and helped them with learning and applying difficult constructs from math and computers to study skills. From the time I was in 4th grade, I have always had a strong passion to teach our young people and assi

After receiving my Bachelor of Science (B. S.) degree in Chemistry, I tutored students enrolled in a GED program and regular institute courses in the areas of Chemistry, Mathematics, Biology, Physics, English, and Social Studies. While doing graduate studies in Medicinal Chemistry, I taught and supervised two general and one organic chemistry laboratories for students. While working in Information Technologies (IT) at a telecommunications company, I taught telecommunications industry standards and billing functionality to coworkers. I believe that every student deserves to receive the highest quality education. Since each student can learn in a variety of ways – through touching, smelling, seeing, talking, and/or hearing, I will evaluate each student to determine "What will best help him or her to learn the subject matter?" Guided by that evaluation, I will "do what it takes" to teach th

As a classroom teacher I quickly learned to engage each student individually. I prefer tutoring because I can tailor my instruction to a specific student. Children have different learning styles so it is my responsibility as the instructor to adapt lessons to maximize learning for each child. Ideally I am able to guide a student to realize concepts in their own terms rather then dictate facts to them. I recently completed two years of teaching Physical Science in a secondary school in Namibia as a Peace Corps volunteer. Prior to that I earned a BS in Computer Science which included a mathematics minor and courses in physics and chemistry. I tutored throughout my time in the Peace Corps, my undergraduate studies and my high school years.

I have realized that the best test of whether you understand something is to be able to teach it successfully to another person. Though being prepared is not a direct part of the tutor-student interaction, it is absolutely necessary for the tutor to be prepared far beyond the basic level. My teaching style tends to rely heavily on humor and I really try to build a relationship with students that is fun for both parties. Particularly in a tutoring capacity, where interaction is one-on-one, I believe a fun working relationship between tutor and student is imporant. I also tend to be very patient in my explainations and try to creatively explain concepts in different ways to match different learning styles. I am a recent college graduate who plans to attend medical school at some point in the future. In completing my pre-medicine requirements, I successfully completed a large number of scie

I think good class materials, sufficient examples and explanations are important for effective learning. I believe it is the responsibility of the teacher to tutor students in an interesting and engaging manner. The teaching should show the elegance and beauty of the subject as well as its applicability to solve concrete and real world problems. Teaching is not just instructing or imparting information to students, but it is meant to empower students to take responsibility for their learning. While students must ultimately take responsibility for their own learning, a teacher can often inspire them to learn. As a teacher, I prefer to use my enthusiasm to help students get involved in the subject. Even when discussing hard scientific terms, I explain them with day to day things and analogies making it easy for the students to absorb. I am devoted to getting to know my students, like know

I love teaching and am passionate about helping others understand math and the sciences. I believe everyone is capable of learning, but acknowledge people learn at different speeds and in different ways. I am available to help you or your child find academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible. I am a firm believer in hands-on science and applying science principles to everyday situations to offer a more universal understanding of the basic principles. I believe all students can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. I believe education is a very important part of life. I have earned two bachelor degrees, BS in Chemistry and BS in Chemical Engineering, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of math and science. In addition, I have learned extens

I am very adaptive. I accept challenges warmly. I love working with children; I teach at my church at the elementary level weekly. I also enjoy working with adults in a non-threatening way. I am a patient person and know that learning can be fun if presenting correctly. I have recently retired from the U.S. Army as a medic. During my service, I was frequently responsible for both formal and informal teaching and training. I learned to easily adapt to various learning styles, learning barriers, and researching subjects. While still in the service, I utilized my lunch breaks and evenings to further my education and emerged with my AA and completed Nurse Assistant training while still serving and my BS only one year later; two months after retiring. Currently, I am working on my MS in Health Promotion with a certificate in Disaster in Public Health. I am capable of producing a less
