First we get to know each other. Often I can create examples to illustrate problems based on the student's interests and experience. If you had any trouble on a recent test or homework assignment, we can begin by reviewing any problems you might have had on those. I will show you why the correct answers are right, and why the wrong answers are wrong. I am an excellent listener, and I always find a way to make the lessons fun.

Since I was a high school student, I always loved math and helping others understand the material. It was then that I realized that I wanted to teach math the way my friends understood it. I continue to enjoy teaching others math and understanding their frustrations just as my friends had in high school. I make my tutoring structured, simple, and fun. I make sure that the student in leading the way throughout the sessions and that we both learn before moving on. I have over 10 years of tutoring experience and can provide many different ways of explaining things. I know where students make mistakes and can provide ways of avoiding them. Every session is important to me because every student has different needs.

My experience comes from a variety of places which accounts for my adaptability. I obtained an associates degree in Business Administration and went on to use that to get some experience in the business sector. I earned my Bachelors degree in Studio Arts and went on to get my Masters in Elementary Education. Since then I have used both my real world and my academic experience to teach students as both a classroom teacher and tutor. I have taught in the classroom to levels from Kindergarten through 3rd grade, and 7th grade as well. Additionally, in the past 2 years I have taught and tutored in test preparation for the SAT. In the 7 years I have now taught, it has become natural for me to assess and teach each student the best way for them.
I believe teaching should be an evolving, natural thing that constantly takes into account all the strengths and weaknesses presented, so that ... read more

I tend to employ a quiet but direct approach to learning. Q and A sessions begin each session. We review the homework and past experiences of the student. I encourage students to write down their concerns and mark the areas of confusion at the time these arise. That way the students don't forget to bring them to my attention. I like to break down large projects into smaller components. The success of the student is the primary goal. A feeling of accomplishment is a close second. I back step and reteach as necessary. Praise is given often. I enjoy the teaching experience and interaction with each student.
My background experience includes classroom teaching, tutoring, substitute teaching,ESL,Title I,and GED training. My classroom experiences included Pre-K to College students. It also included training nursing staff. In Pennsylvania, I hold undergrad degrees which focus mainly on m ... read more

In high school and college I admired my teachers, especially in the sciences. After I got my PhD I went for academic positions, and very much enjoyed teaching physics and the other physical sciences. (In fact, I concentrated so much on my teaching that I didn’t get the research funding necessary for tenure.) A series of adjunct positions gave me experience in teaching earth sciences, meteorology, astronomy; chemistry at various levels. As a substitute teacher in Philadelphia I worked with middle school and high school students who had a variety of attitudes toward school. In adult night school I taught fundamental math (arithmetic) and the history of physics. Along the way I was a free-lance tutor, helping high-school students with sciences, math, and computer programming. Last summer I taught physics in the evening at a for-profit technical school. I am eager to get back to teac ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

During my experience as a tutor, I have gained the ability to identify the best way to convey the material in a way that matches the individual needs of the learner. Another thing that I have learned as a student and as a math tutor, is that the best and the most efficient way of learning in math is through practice and more practice. My father has helped me a lot while I was in middle and high school in math and physics. He is a professor of physics and one thing that he taught me and I will never forget is that: while solving a problem in math or physics, always write down what you know and what you need to find out. Don't just keep it in your head. Put it down and that will help you find a solution.
As a young girl I grew up loving math and physics. I made sure to participate in every math and physics competitions in order to challenge myself and I was able to win two math compe ... read more

I love working with children. I encouraged learning by using a number of intelligent, hands-on activities and various forms of technology. By incorporating class-discussions, open-ended questions and cooperative learning I was able to facilitate a highly interactive and inquisitive class atmosphere. In addition I utilized weekly quizzes and monthly tests to track student progress and provide them constructive feedback. Also, having the opportunity to work with diverse group of students made me proficient to design creative and stimulating lesson plans to keep students interested and focused. Moreover, I used teaching aids (models/charts) to explain direct connections between the classroom and everyday life.
Through my teaching experience so far, I I believe that education is the key to success for young students. As a teacher I hope to motivate students in ascertaining their inner ... read more

Mathematics is a joy and privilege to teach students because of its extensive relationship to the world and connection to everyday life. I believe that you need to relate to a child’s prior knowledge in order to gain an understanding of future material. I value a child’s discovery of a topic and act as a guide in my students learning. I challenge my students to think critically but also acknowledge their need to learn differently. One benefit of mathematics is the ability to teach a topic various ways so that all children can succeed. Using manipulative, visuals and technology my students can master material in a way that is meaningful to their learning style.
I have always been intrigued by mathematics especially it’s connection and explanations for various fields of science. By teaching my students the foundations of math I have grown to enjoy and appreciate it even more. ... read more

I have a fairly informal teaching style, and I tend to use a lot of humor. I try to connect the information I am trying to convey to what the student already knows, rather than simply provide facts to be learned by rote and regurgitated on an exam.
After college I worked for three years.During that time I applied and received a scholarship to the Medical College of Pennsylvania, from which I graduated in 1994. I completed an Internal Medicine Residency at MCP in 1997. After residency I worked as an attending physician in Pittsburgh from 1997 to 2000, and in Berlin, Maryland, from 2001 to 2004. In January, 2004, my wife became severely ill, and I decided to take time off to raise my two young daughters. I taught at the Dawn Training Center in Wilmington, DE, from May to October, 2006. I also have extensive experience teaching junior housestaff and Nurse Practitioner trainees.
