More About This Tutor...

I have over 10 years of experience in the education field with a special love for tutoring Mathematics. My experience is extensive as I ran my own tutoring business for 3 years doing mostly freelance work in college. The unique thing about my experience is that I have tutored ages 8-28 through my many recipients. I have a knack for getting children and adults excited to learn whether it is through motivation outside the subject area, or showing them that they can in fact do this.
My teaching style is upbeat and positive. If I cannot be excited for my subject areas. Why should any student I tutor?

I believe a good educator must understand that all students have different learning styles. It is my job as an educator to help each student reach acaemic success and to provide the best education possible.
I have earned two bachelor degrees, BS in Accounting and BS in Chemistry, which has enabled me to gain knowledge in many areas of math and science. I have taught at the high school level for three years, which included courses in Chemistry and Physics. I have also performed private tutoring for college students.

A Little Bit About Me...

In the course of my education and professional career I have always found myself attracted to positions where I am passing on knowledge and skills to others. During my education at JMU I learned various skills in the area of scientific research, mathematical analysis, and the extensive writing skills that allow one to express their accomplishments in such research. Before graduating, it became my duty to train and educate the students who would be taking over my research. My skills were amplified and expanded by my experiences working for Lifesensors Inc. and VCU. In both situations I had taken over the role as the educator for new comers and it is a role that I thoroughly enjoy and succeed in playing.
I have a great deal of passion for teaching. When educating a person of any age, I make it my goal to create an experience that is as intellectually fulfilling for them as it is for ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I believe that anyone can learn any subject if you give them the proper tools. Setting goals and meeting them is only part of the battle, Knowing what when wrong and how to fix it is the other half. Living with an LD gives me an appreciation of the time it can take to learn; and that not everyone can learn in the same way. I prefer a hands-on and organized teaching style where I can make connections to real world examples. However, I do know that each child is an individual and learns differently.
I am a graduate from Randolph College formally known as Randolph Macon Woman's College. Currently I am working on obtaining an additional degree in Chemistry. I have taken classes in advanced mathematics, biology, chemistry and physics. As a person labeled LD I understand and have developed techniques to learn material. These experiences helped me tutor others in math and science.

More About This Tutor...

I love learning and understanding new concepts and ideas. So while attending Emory & Henry college I was excited about tutoring at the local school to help Children gain a better grasp on the things they were learning in class. After graduating with Bachelors degrees in Math and Physics, I wanted to continue to learn more and keep passing on what I had learned to others. As a Graduate Teaching assistant at the University of Kansas, I was able to keep learning about Mathematics and teach and tutor classes of students in everything from basic college algebra to Calculus and Statistics.
As a flexible and understanding tutor, I will be fully engaged in trying to help my students learn their new material and pay attention for any gaps in their basic knowledge of the subject that I can help to fix. Since I am laid back and patient, tutoring will be a low stress environment, which is some ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a NOAA Corps Officer, I helped teach new personnel many facets of our day-to-day operations, from instructing new officers on getting their Officer of the Deck qualifications to preparing new survey techs for their hydrographer-in-charge qualification, and new deck hands assigned to my watch how to drive the ship and steer accurate survey lines. At Embry-Riddle, I often tutored friends and classmates, since I had a more advanced background than most of my peers.
My teaching style is tailored to the individual. The first thing I do when I'm trying to teach someone something is determine their learning style. If they don't know it I help them figure it out. I do find that most people learn best by diving in and doing it themselves first, while I serve as a "safety net". Whenever I was teaching new helmsmen or junior officers how to steer survey lines, I would direct them how to do ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a Citadel graduate I was taught how to be a great leader. I have great organizational skills, analytical skills, and I know how to work with diverse groups. I understand the importance of helping others in the best way possible to help them achieve their personal goals.
I love working with all age groups. I understand that everyone has a different style inwhich they learn things. What I try to do is learn everyones learning style and teach in according to what will make the most logical sense to help them learn new subjects. Teaching others is very interesting to me.

A Little Bit About Me...

I truly believe in learning by doing. Being shown the answer never helps anyone. You must go through the process of doing to be confident in your abilities. I try to make the student feel as comfortable as possible with making mistakes. That's the whole point of studying, to improve. This requires a lot of patience and understanding of how the student views the assignment. Looking back the teachers that I learned the most from were the ones that kept my attention and had practical experience with the courses I was taking. I hope to emulate them in my tutoring.
I have recently graduated from Virginia Tech where I majored in Biological Sciences. This included biology, physics, and chemistry as focus points. My tutoring experience has been volunteer work. Throughout my academic career I have always helped others, from explaining difficult concepts to peer reviewing papers in ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have earned a BS in Computer Science, with a very strong math minor. It would have been a double major, but third-year theoretical math stopped being fun (and computers were still fun). However, math up to and including first year calculus was both straightforward and mostly fun. I have worked with computers, systems administration and programming, since graduation, but I have lost none of the math I learned as high as high school algebra and geometry and basic calculus.
I enjoy teaching and explaining many things to individuals and small groups, of all ages, although my tutoring experience is somewhat limited. I can communicate in different styles with different people, based on how I see they can learn most effectively. Seeing the "Aha!" expression when a student has grasped a topic, especially when he or she has been frustrated, is one of my greatest rewards. Especially in mat ... read more

I love seeing the light go off in their heads written on their faces. My experience has included helping children that failed previously with other teachers prove to themselves they can succeed. My teaching style includes positive re-enforcement and focused repeatition of the subject matter until success has been achieved. Small levels of success lead students to get excited about the possibilities.
Extensive background in people oriented environments from engineering, academia, counseling, and law enforcement. My stong points include caring and compassion for success of others and positive motivation to achieveable dreams. Twenty years experience in engineering related occupations, ten years in teaching and academia, and some form of counseling since undergraduate school in early 1980's.
