I have taken various college courses in mathematics within the last two years. I prefer to tutor any student who may need help with pre-algebra, or algebra 1 and 2. I have tutored college students, and will provide you with references if needed. Contact me if you have any additional questions. :)

Chad D - Sinking Springs, PA 19608 (17.4 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I usually spend the first session finding a child's weaknesses in the subject. After this, I will prepare a list of problems for the child to work on under my supervision. As he works I will let him make his mistakes and then help him correct them.
This, in my opinion, is the greatest way to learn math. Practice makes perfect. As I finished up my studies, started tutoring for lower level math majors. This included Calculus I,II,III, and statistics. As I moved on through classes, I began teaching more abstract classes in Mathematical theory.
This experience has helped me able to explain a complex topic in simple terms.

Olaide O - State college, PA 16803 (22.1 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $42.00/hr.
I believe in an interactive learning environment where I am constantly asking students for their inputs and working through problems with them. This way, they become confident in their abilities to solve difficult problems and provoke critical thinking. I am currently a graduate student in petroleum engineering. As an undergrad I worked as a mentor for a freshman in my major, helping him cope with school and advising him of the courses he needs to take. I also provide tutoring when needed.
In high school I was part of a program called PEPP where high school students provided tutoring to middle school students. I was also involved in a program developed by my school's Honor Society where we tutor our peers in math and science courses.
Additionally, I was a summer camp counselor for three summers and I was responsible for coordinating various activities for the children each week.

Elijah S - State College, PA 16801 (23.9 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I try to express ideas in multiple ways, understanding that all students learn differently. I also try to provide real world examples to bring a more practical application to the students' studies. I also feel that engaging students in my lectures is important, not only to keep their attention, but to ensure they more thoroughly grasp the concepts. I served in the US Navy for six years after high school, providing me with a wealth of world experience. I excelled in my studies in the Navy's nuclear power program as a machinist mate and engineering laboratory technician. I subsequently obtained a BS degree in Chemical Engineering from the University of Tennessee and graduated Summa Cum Laude. I worked for several years in chemical design at Oak Ridge's National Nuclear Security Complex. During my education and job experience fellow classmates and co-workers regularly came to me for help i

David B - Wellsboro, PA 16901 (40 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $36.00/hr.
Working with students in math, I like to ask what the student enjoys doing while not in school. I like to relate this to the math to make it more interesting as well as making it fun. This will also make the student more comfortable and lowers the stress level. In lower level courses in basic math up to middle level courses such as algebra, the methods used are integrating the content into the unsolved variables and/or word problems. In higher level courses such as differential calculus, I like to give a specific scenario where the content would relate to what they would do in the activity or hobby outside of school. My experience with helping others in math has been very enjoyable. Having worked at a university learning center as a tutor, I have helped students in all levels of math courses. My studies during college focused on specifically math where I have completed my bachelor's degr

Patrick K - Port Royal, PA 17082 (40.4 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $44.50/hr.
I have taught chemistry at the high school, community college, and university levels. I can also teach math at the high school level or lower. I have taught students of diverse races, ages genders and nationalities. I have taught during the day, evenings, and week-ends. Most of my working life has been about teaching. Actually, I am a trained teacher and hold the equivalent of an AA degree with emphasis on teaching chemistry and mathematics at the high school level. During my teacher training program, I won a distinction award for excellence in teaching.
I am also trained to teach online chemistry at the college level, and have used it to teach two summer sessions. I teach from the known to the unknown (i.e. taking a concept that is already known, or an everyday activity, and relating it to new concepts.
I vary the teaching style to maintain the interest of the student. I use questions

Mary E - Mifflintown, PA 17059 (41.7 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $40.50/hr.
As a junior and senior in college, my research papers consistently received the highest grades ever awarded by a certain professor with a reputation for being the toughest on campus. I subsequently became a successful trade journalist and marketing communications writer with in excess of 150 feature articles to my name. In addition, the last eight years, during which I've been a homeschooling mom, have allowed me to hone my teaching style and become more aware of the barriers students typically have and effective methods of overcoming writing difficulties. I enjoy helping students find the writer within them! For example, a few of my own children were reluctant writers, so I developed a daily routine of assigning them to write a full page about anything they desired. The creativity surfaced with a vengeance, let me tell you! Showing the most resistant student how to grab the bull by its

Scott M - Altoona, PA 16602 (51.5 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $38.50/hr.
My goal in teaching is to help students understand how the scientific process affects them on a personal level. I try to connect science and mathematics to the world around them by helping them to understand science in the context of other disciplines, including art and politics. Furthermore, I draw on my experience in environmental and pharmaceutical laboratories to increase interest in the coursework. I am currently a mid-career scientist who is looking to transition into the teaching profession. I have tutored high school and college students for several years in chemistry, algebra, physics, and geometry. I have a BS in Chemistry and have taken additional coursework in chemistry and education. I have extensive experience as a chemist working in the laboratory, and have several published research articles in the field.
