Calculus II Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Birmingham, AL

I tend to be very flexible when it comes to teaching. I can tell pretty quickly what math skills need improvement in a particular student. The aim is to correct weaknesses and build confidence so that students can feel more comfortable doing math work at home and in a classroom setting. I have always had a passion for mathematics. In addition to tutoring mathematics for the University of Alabama for three years, I have been a private math tutor in the Birmingham area for over 5 years. I have tutored dozens of students in various math subjects including Algebra, Pre-Calculus, Geometry and Calculus.

I prefer a hands-on approach, especially with science and math. I believe an education is more than memorizing definitions but understanding and being able to apply concepts broadly. I have found children grasp a concept better when they are allowed to explore concrete applications instead of studying abstract ideas. A typical tutoring session would include a review of classroom material, an experiment or observation applying that information, and homework formatted to the style his or her teacher's testing style. However, each child learns differently and adjustments will be made to more closely fit each individuals learning style and needs. I have taught private violin lessons for ten years to students ranging in age from 4-26. At the University of Alabama, I taught the lab component to Intro into Biology for Non-majors under Dr. Tom Graham and histology under Dr. Jane Rasco. Through t

My teaching style is easy to describe; I consider myself a 'coach' and as such I don't (and wont) give the students the answer to a particular problem, but rather I show them how to (and hold their hand, metaphorically, while they struggle to) find the answers themselves based on first principles, in my experience the only way to get them to really learn. Learning physics is particularly difficult for most students because they have been trained to memorize, not reason things out logically. They usually require a LOT of coaching in order to begin to think, which ultimately is the goal of all physics class. I completed all course work for a masters of physics at University of Alabama at Birmingham, only lacking the thesis. G.P.A. at the end of the course work was 3.65. Along the way, as I finished the graduate course work (and in order to pay the rent) I did ad-hoc tutoring with a num

Hailing from a family of academicians, teaching is a way of life for me. I can adapt my teaching method to accommodate students from different cultural backgrounds and perceptions. Most students appreciate my efforts to improve their knowledge and understanding of the subject. I feel a sense of achievement and pride in their betterment and success. Versatile, articulate and hardworking with a practical hands-on approach, I persevere to achieve the best results. Having worked in different countries and cultural settings with a successful track record, I can adapt to a diverse workplace. Completed graduate studies in physics from UAB recently, while also having a graduate degree in physics and an undergraduate degree in education from India. Am adept at presenting technical/research papers and participating in seminars. Passed the APTTP exam in May 2008.Proven skills in coursework design a

Few things bring me more personal joy than helping others become better learners and seeing them smile when they overcome their struggles. I never use a one-size-fits-all approach to tutoring, because each and every individual's natural ability and learning environment are unique. Regardless of circumstances, I'm always patient, easy-going, and respectful with students and their families. Whenever possible, I try to incorporate examples that correlate with the interests they already have, to show them how important and practical their studies will be once they finish their schooling. Without telling them answers directly, I lead students down the right path so they can discover for themselves. I've always been a highly focused and disciplined individual in regards to academics; ever since high school I've taken a serious liking to chemistry and math, not only because of their importance

I try to provide a friendly classroom atmosphere where students feel comfortable asking questions, both in class and outside of class. I let students know I am approachable and will always listen to their concerns. My door is always open for them. I believe if students ask more questions when they are unclear about a concept, they learn more. I strive to give rigorous and up-to-date materials that help students acquire necessary skills to succeed in the future. I give students the opportunities to learn using real life examples, in-class exercises, and out-of-class assignments. It is my hope that students will obtain lifelong benefits from my teaching. I have a Ph. D. in Mathematics Education with 18 years experience in teaching mathematics in different levels: high school, college as well as in graduate school. I have taught different mathematics subjects (Algebra, Geometry-plane, so

I hold a Bachelor's degree in Mathematics from UAB with a minor in English. I have tutored high school and college students in Algebra II, Precalculus, and Calculus I. In the process of earning my degree, I completed standard undergraduate courses including Calculus I, II, and III, Linear Algebra, and Differential Equations. I prefer to adapt my teaching style to suit individual students' needs. In addition to guiding the students as they practice different types of problems, I explain the underlying concepts to help develop intuition. This foundation enables students to quickly find solutions without relying on rote memorization of formulas. My goal is to give students the confidence and skills to achieve their potential.

Peole dont lean in the same ways. I take an individual approach. I get to know the person, ther likes and dislikes, which gives me some knowledge on how to approach the lesson. I love working with people. I love watching people learn it is a great accomplishment. Through out junior high and I high school I have tutrored fellow students in the area of math, from basic to geometry, trig and calculus. I majored in computer engineering because of my love for math but I knew all the time that I should have been teaching. While in college I have continued to tutor whether it be grade school students or college students at home and over the phone. Math is my passion.

I can teach with or without a textbook. My great advantage in privately tutoring for 10 years is in my being forced to work with all levels of mathematics; that is, while most teachers teach one or two math subjects only, I have had to brush up on everything from elementary algebra to calculus year, after year, after year. I know how to "read" students to figure out what they know, what they don't, and the course of action we need to take to get them up to speed FAST. My philosophy is in blending the Socratic Method and demonstration to give students the actual language of mathematics. My business has been 100% referral based for the last 10 years, and it stems from getting amazing results quickly. During my Sophomore Year at College of Charleston I worked in the Math Lab tutoring all levels of classical mathematics up to Calculus III. I happened to be the only tutor who checked a box sa

As an engineering student at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, I have taken many courses in mathematics, however, engineering wasn't my passion. My true passion is working with young people. As a former Director of Education for the Boys and Girls Clubs of Central Alabama, I have tutored children in mathematics for nearly 10 years! Currently, I am the Director of the Boys and Girls Clubs of West Alabama. My career is based around working with youth and helping children in their problem areas, especially mathematics. I use a very visual teaching style. Any child can learn how to solve any problem, as long as it is explained to them using practical ways that they can understand. I teach using practical examples and putting problem in real life applications. Once a child understands the how and the why, they become more confident in the work that they are doing.
