I am a very logical and result oriented person. If you are interested in seeing better results from the scores, tests and believe in making rapid change in your thought process, you may want to try me. I believe learning should be fun and not all work. Not all answers will be shortcuts that would involve lot of memorizing, but very systematic and logical way of approaching a problem for the student to gain interest and at the same time be able to address any problem out of the box. I do understand that not all students are the same and each one of them would require different teaching model to reach eventually to the same high levels. I have given several exams in and out of the country and there are definite tips that can help the student to achieve better results with the same knowledge level. I have scored over 95 percentiles in almost all the exams that I gave, some times wi

My teaching style consists of hands on application and converting math into everday language. Each student must be able to complete assigned math problems as well as explain how and why they chose their math operations. My teaching style for Reading consists of phonics, prefixes, suffixes, context clues, grammar strategies and tips. Each student must be able to summarize what they read, identify main idea, identify main character, and explain what they liked about it and what they didn't. Additionally each student will receive short daily assignments to reinforce building skills to improve knowledge and study skills. I first began tutoring when I was attending University of Michigan. It gave me great pleasure to help others succeed. After graduating I held many prestigous positions but none captured my passion as much as tutoring. Eventually my passion got the best of me and I began

Can help with the math. I like to have students take a timed practice test so that they become comfortable taking the test and focus on techniques that will help the student answer questions faster. I have been tutoring independently since 2009 but have always liked helping others learn. I am good with math and numbers. Will go the extra mile to make sure the student/client understands that material. I like to provide as much feedback as possible to the student/client and build their confidence while tutoring them. I have worked with students as young as 5 years old teaching them how to count, numbers, etc to working adults in college and graduate school.

With so many years teaching middle school students in classrooms, I specialize in crafting just the right learning environment for students, emotionally safe but a little push outside their intellectual comfort zone. This is achieved through patience, clarity of thought, and modeling a sense of wonder about the world. I have worked with students who receive special education services as well as gifted students, and am adept at differentiating content and delivery to best promote comprehension and retention. Finally, everyone learns best when they feel like they are having fun and making their own discoveries--it's my job to ensure this sense of adventure is part of students' educational experience, offering ever more motivation to learn. With 7 years of international and U.S-based teaching, tutoring, and training experience, I am at ease teaching multiple subjects to individuals and enti

Inquiry- I want the kids to learn through inquiry. Figuring out a problem through experimentation and critical thought of outcomes. I like to start with the basics and go from there.

For over 20 years, I have had the opportunity to tutor children, peers and older adults in various subjects including math, English and science as well as guide them at presentation skills, critical thinking and small business solutions. As an undergraduate student, I was selected, by the International Teachers Abroad Program at Vanderbilt (ITAP), to teach graduate level, teaching assistants, how to enhance their ability to communicate in English and to communicate their subject matter to undergraduate students. After graduating from Vanderbilt University, I began working full-time at a modern-day orphanage. This 12-year experience gave me plenty of opportunities to expand my skill set with special needs and at-risk, male youth. In addition to tutoring, I train in the areas of broadcast production and editing as well as business development. It is most important to communicate respect

I believe that science has a undeserved reputation for difficulty as a subject that is directly related to the inability of many teachers to "break it down". Science can seem to be like a foreign language to the uninitiated, but at its essence science is simply a way of thinking about the world and asking questions. Several themes appear again and again in concepts that on the surface may seem unrelated and it is recognizing these themes that is the key to success in building knowledge and confidence. My teaching philosophy is to point out these common threads binding various topics in science and relate it to the real world as quickly as possible, always with the goal of breaking it down to its simplest explanation. I hold a bachelor of science in Biology (cum laude) from Morehouse College in Atlanta, GA and attended graduate school at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine

My 20+ year teaching career began in high school when I ran an after-school tutoring program. At the University of Georgia I tutored for the chemistry and biology departments. I earned a BS in Genetics and a Masters of Education. I taught biology, physical science, ecology, and human anatomy in 2 public high schools in Georgia. I was nominated Teacher of the Year and earned the Georgia Science Teacher of Promise Award. Since then I have tutored math, science, reading, and test prep for grades 5-12 and college. I have recently renewed my Georgia Teaching Certificate for grades PK-5 and 7-12. I am very much a hands-on instructor. Long ago, I heard the Chinese Proverb “I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand.” These words embody my personal teaching philosophy. I utilize a varied and balanced set of teaching strategies that will meet the needs of all types of learn

What makes me a great tutor is my patience and understanding of a student in need. I believe all children are capable of success but sometimes may need a little extra help to get there. My teaching style is one of comparisons and analogies. Sometimes students just do not understand the mathematical terms. For this reason, I compare problems to something the student is familiar with, allow them to see the connection to the problem at hand and then guide them to solving the problem. This strategy has proven to be very successful and I've often had students tell me "You make it seem so easy!" I have a bachelor degree in Biology with a minor in Chemistry, which has allowed me to gain a deep understanding of both sciences. I was also a Mathematics tutor at Florida A&M University for about two years. I tutored everything from grammar school mathematics up to Calculus II. I have also tut

I believe that every child has a potential to learn. My approach to teaching my students is to patiently study their strengths and to help them exploit those strengths to achieve academic excellence. I show my students how to perform complex tasks using various easy-to-understand methods and subsequently encourage them to independently solve similar problems by using and adapting those methods. I have found that students respond the best to learning if they can achieve confidence in their abilities. My early fascination with animals led me to major in Animal Biochemistry and Nutrition with a minor in statistics for my first degree in the University. My passion for computers and tutoring however has since taken the forefront of my carrier and over the years I have trained private students in subjects ranging from College Biology and Anatomy to High School Mathematics, Geography, Biology,

In my past experience as a Teacher, I have been required to follow a strict curriculum and adhere to a specific learning plan. My style of teaching incorporates the cognitive and the interactive so students can experience their lessons as an adventure rather than a mandatory requirement.
