ACT is one of my top subjects! I am experienced in tutoring and teaching all sections of the ACT, especially the math.

I have worked in educational access for over twenty years, and I have a particular passion for showing students ways to simplify difficult processes. My professional highlights include: • Providing individual tutoring for students preparing for the SAT and ACT • Mentoring and motivating students to stay engaged and up to date • Working with parents, schools and organizations to assist students with transition to higher education • Developing curriculum for reading, math, and GED preparation classes
I consider myself to be a "test-prep coach." I help students find solutions on their own before I teach them how to do it.

SUCCESS, RIGHT AT YOUR DOORSTEP!

I have been an educator for almost 20 years. I began my teaching career as a substitute teacher and immediately fell in love with teaching children with special needs. Desiring to continue to teach, I finished a Master's degree which gave me the endorsements to teach K-12 children with special needs. Since then, I have taught reading and mathematics to both children with special needs and regular education children at the elementary, middle, and high school levels. As I gained a greater thirst to do more to help children, outside of teaching in the public school setting, I bagan tutoring. Between teacing within the public school and tutoring outside of the public school setting, I gained a great deal of experience when it comes to identifying strategies that cause children to learn and retain what they have learned. After all was said and done, I finally capped my educational aspir ... read more

My comments on tutoring ACT : Taken the ACT and worked in tutoring with math-related ACT problems.

I prefer to teach one-on-one with students for best results. However I have done tutoring in a variety of teaching styles (group, class, lecture) and I am comfortable and dynamic in many situations.
I am currently working with the Department of Defense in Analytics / Security but love tutoring on the side! I have previously tutored students in math, test preparation, and SAT / ACT prep, programming, Arabic / French and in multiple different students including Middle School, High School, College, and professional.

My comments on tutoring ACT : 15 years of teaching and tutoring individual and groups

15 Years as High School Math teacher and 15 years as College Instructor. ! Math is one of my top subjects! Teaching is an Art, not any person can be a good teacher. I love teaching and I consider myself as a gifted Math teacher. Because I love teaching, I was a high school AP/BC Math teacher when I was 19 years old. I succeed through many years of teaching experience to create a nice and helpful short cut which really assists students not just understanding, but to help solving the problem in a short period of time. I usually do 2 hours/session (one hour is free if HS student), this allow students/parents to see my teaching style and decide

Elementary, Middle, High School and College Tutor

I usually start with a diagnostic test to concentrate on weaker areas then come up with a weekly plan focusing on those areas. After a lesson, I usually give worksheets and sometimes online exercises, depending on the subject, and use videos and games if applicable.
I have tutored and mentored students for more than five years in Algebra I & II, Trigonometry, Physics, Chemistry, English and ESL. I have a degree in Psychology and a certificate in TEFL. I believe tutoring is a really helpful and useful addition to class and studying by oneself because it is reviewing class material once again and it is a way for students to be accountable to yet another person who knows the answers to their questions and can help them work to that answer as well.

A Little Bit About Me...

Throughout many years of tutoring my peers and underclassmen, I have obtained several techniques to help students study effectively. Depend on each individual student and their study habit; I can adjust a specific agenda and curriculum to help strengthen their weakness and excel their strength. I am very patient and fun to be around. For me learning is a combination of fun and hard work. I tend to make the material easier to understand and to captivate their interest in the subject.

More About This Tutor...

I graduated from Vanderbilt University in May 2010, and I am currently applying to medical school. In high school and college, I tutored in math, science, English, and test prep. Math and Science are my favorite subjects, but I also have much experience with tutoring English and grammar. I have also tutored people preparing for tests such as the ACT, SAT, and Gateway.
I always look forward to tutoring new people becuase I not only get to make a difference in their life by helping them master what they're struggling with, but I also get to learn about people and different learning styles. I view tutoring as a way to help others while improving my interpersonal skills. I value all the skills I gain from tutoring because they will be assets when I become a physician. Working with all ages from kindergarten to college has taught me patience and how to conform to different people's need ... read more

Teaching is something that is not meant for everyone. I am fortunate to say that my academic success is due to my ability to break down any material to a basic ideal and teach the materials in mutiple ways. The most important thing I do is make the material appeal to any individuals. Once these things are established, I believe student can effectivly learn and grow.

A Little Bit About Me...

My greatest strength as a tutor is that I know what it is like to have no knowledge of a foreign language. Thus, I am able to diagnose the particular difficulties a student is having and provide appropriate guidance in resolving those difficulties. I believe in repetition and drills, both written and spoken. In addition, I also believe in using the target language as much as possible. I will encourage students to use what knowledge they have of the target language in order to communicate with me. I used to be afraid to speak foreign languages, but several of my teachers were able to create a comfortable enough environment such that I was no longer afraid. I hope to do the same.
My education in international relations and international public affairs has allowed me to gain knowledge in the social sciences and foreign languages. As an undergraduate student, I studied and worke ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that each student is truly a unique individual with different strengths and weaknesses. I think it is important to work with each student on a one to one basis; assess their personal needs and focus on them. Not every student learns the same so it is extremely important to take notice of the different personalities and do my best to adhere them. I think that education is truly a powerful tool. I believe that with the proper instruction and overall support, a student may use their education to achieve their dreams. As a teacher/tutor I feel it is my responsiblity to teach with a passion that shows my students how I truly believe in what I am teaching them.

More About This Tutor...

I love teaching. Whenever a friend needed help, I was always there to help them out with their school work. I am a good tutor and I'm patient and considerate. My goal is always to make sure that they understand the subject rather than just having them complete homework.
I have earned a Bachelor degree in Electrical Engineering and working on my Master's degree in Engineering Management. Both degrees have helped me gain knowledge in math, science and in information technology. My grammatical skills are good due to writing a lot of research papers and lab reports. In my spare time, I had help other friends in the subject of math of different levels, from college algebra to Calculus III.
