Algebra I Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help

My teaching style is friendly, engaging, confident and direct. My philosophy is that tutoring is a short-term service to assist students, and therefore, each student is limited to 8 sessions each semester. I am an expert in math and statistics education with more than 15 years of experience tutoring math and statistics. I have been taught by some of the top professors in the country, if not world, and I bring those lessons to each of my tutoring sessions. I have taught a diversity of students throughout the Bay Area, CA and worked with students from ages 7 to 65, in high school, community colleges, and universities.

I have a flexible, adaptable style that I alter based on the needs of the student. I attended the top school in the world for Engineering and Science, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). I have been tutoring for many years. I started tutoring as an undergraduate at MIT. I also have taught at the university level. I am sure that I can help your student improve his grades and fundamental knowledge for any subject that I tutor. Furthermore, I can help give your child the tools to more effectively learn on his own to help him succeed in college. I also can tutor many different subjects which will be very helpful continuity for your child. I am especially gifted as a math tutor because I can come at problems from many different perspectives. I can also look at your child's work to understand what types of mistakes that he/she is making to ensure that tutoring will have a long term

I am currently attaining an MBA in Marketing I have completed a lot of college courses and would love the opportunity to help out another college student. For example: Finance, Macro/Micro Economics, Business Administration courses. In addition, I am currently enrolled in the Texas Teachers program. I will obtain a teaching certificate at the time of completion. Courses that I am proficient in: Math Algebra, Writing, Reading, Technology, (Microsoft Office) (Power Point) (Typing skills) and college course that are mentioned above. I have more college experience and it's great to help out when the information is still fresh. Every student learns differently. I have explored the many ways to teach so that children can learn. From previous teaching experience I am aware that some children are visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learners. I teach based on the individual learning style.

As a student I was always helping my friends and brothers with their school work, especially math. While in graduate school working on my Masters degree I tutored for the athletic department and even tutored some of my classmates who were college professors working on their PhD's. I have been a college teacher for more than 5 years and started doing private tutoring over 2 years ago. Teaching style varies by student and by subject, and even varies according to my level of skill in the subject matter. I have been told that I make things that are confusing or hard to understand easy, and I love that 'I see' look in a student's eyes.

I have taught and tutored students in many maths courses including pre-Algebra, Algebra and Geometry. I have a student-centered approach. I tailor instruction to the learner's style and that person's particular needs. My approach is Inquiry-based and Socratic. I use questioning to activate prior knowledge and to elicit correct responses. I believe in guiding students to the correct answers. All too often classroom instruction is one size fits all. This is why many of us struggle. We are individuals, yet education is cookie-cutter. Teaching must be individualistic. I help students adapt their learning style to the methodology employed in their classes. My name is Mike and I want to help you or your child succeed. I have a Master’s Degree from City College (special Education, Children with Disabilities) and a Bachelor’s Degree from Fordham University (History). I am NYS licensed in Social

I have numerous years of experience in teaching and tutoring from elementary levels to adult. I have developed and taught ACT/SAT/ General Knowledge workshops for two local institutions. I understand that reading difficulties at any level affect educational success in all other areas. I have experience in planning, organizing and delivering Supplemental Instruction which uses excellent tutoring strategies for all types of learners. Math, study skills, and testing strategies are also areas of my expertise. Math with hands-on activities is my strength. Communication is the basis of all that I have learned. I believe that a tutoring experience needs to be different than the classroom lessons. To do it differently, using each student's learning style by building on their strengths and bridging their classroom instruction is my philosophy. Building on successes, in any area, gives a child co

A former Physics Tutor at Southern University ROTC program to help out struggling students in the class and in one-to-one sessions. Will review forgotten materials and techniques from previous-level education. I help the student enhance their problem solving skills by asking questions instead of giving out answers right away. I am also comfortable with college or high school level mathematics including Calculus and Linear Algebra. I am fluent in Japanese and Hebrew languages so I can also do foreign language tutoring. One-to-one session or online tutoring and personal attention and monitoring on progress. Would review past techniques the students missed or forgot to refresh their memories. Would give extra exercises and tests to get better and prepare for tests.

In the past 16 years, I have tutored Algebra I, to many Teenagers, and Adults. All my tutees in Algebra I, have earned top grades in this course and have gone on to do well in Geometry, Algebra II, Trigonometry, Calculus, and related scientific disciplines. My goal as an academic tutor is to help you or your student understand important concepts and formulas while applying them to any problems or exercises that are gone over in lecture or assigned for homework. Since 2001 I have been privileged to have tutored over 600 students in the very intense subjects of Organic chemistry, General chemistry Calculus, and Physics. I take pride in my tutoring, in that my students will succeed inside and outside of the classroom. I have tutored over 20,000 hours since 2001 both paid and volunteer peer tutoring. I will go the extra mile to see that you or you student succeed and reach the pinnacle of th

I work well with students in a non threatening manner. It is my goal to make students feel at ease and comfortable in asking any questions they may have. I am able to explain mathematics in a variety of ways, so I can find out what works with any student. I emphasize the logic of math concepts in addition to just memorizing procedures. I have been teaching and tutoring in all levels of math for many years. I am a licensed teacher in the State of Indiana. I especially enjoy working with students one on one or in small groups because it is easy to see how they think and find out where they need the most help. I am now retired with over 30 years experience of teaching high school and college math.
