I can explain concepts in a very easy-to-understand way. I'm extremely patient and make sure that people follow along with what I'm saying. I've tutored several people with math and homework problems. They have always reported more understanding from me than their teachers, and were very satisfied with the lessons. The lessons were always in-house, but I am capable of helping online as well. Some were 1 lesson, while others were lessons over the course of several weeks to help prepare and pass exams. I can explain math concepts in a very easy-to-understand way. I'm extremely patient and make sure that people follow along with what I'm saying.

I have been a Teacher/Coach for the past 4 years, and a Tutor for the past 6 years. I am well versed in all areas of Mathematics, and along with that Problem Solving, and Test Taking. I have taught at the High School Level from 2008-2011, and for the past year, I have taught both High School and College, as well as Tutor Students from Elementary School to College. When explaining the aspects of a particular subject, especially Mathematics, I break down the work into its simplest form, and from there, build up to more complex components. With a foundation of Problem Solving, anything in Math is able to be understood.

I like to take the time to learn about the student themselves, and try to understand the problem specific to the individual. I think learning should be fun and approached in a way that puts little pressure on the student. A complete understanding requires an environment in which the student can personally relate to on an everyday basis. Over the course of my education, I have developed a strong understanding of math and science courses. In addition, I have a passion for the arts, psychology and management. Attending both a community college as well as a large 4-year institute has exposed me to a variety of teaching styles. Through this I have learned effective ways to explain and work through different learning styles.

I am very much invested in both structured and intuitive teaching. I consistently try to instill in my students a sense of the dynamic interplay between these two facets of the production and maintenance of knowledge. I encourage them to know the inside of "the box", but to be ready and willing to think outside of it when the situation demands it (as it very often does). I want my students to speak for themselves, but to be equally capable of listening. I view teaching as a collaborative endeavor, and it is my firm belief that both teacher and student are always engaged in both aspects of its cause. That is, we are always both teachers and students together. I graduated from Rutgers University Cum Laud, and with departmental honors in English. After completing my undergraduate degree I traveled to Chile where I taught English at three private academies from grades 8 to 12. In addi

My teaching style is individualized and begins once I have observed the academic strengths and weaknesses of the student. I keep in mind that students have different learning styles some tactile others auditory and yet others are visual. I incorporate all three styles during my lesson and try to utilize the tools that the child needs in order to maximize their opportunity to learn As a substitute teacher for over 13 years I have worked with a diverse population of children and have taught various subject areas including...math, science and social studies. I have taught mainly in New York City public schools in grades k-6. I have also created lesson plans that have been tailored to suit the population of children that I was teaching at the time.

I previously taught foreign students through a grant with Buffalo State Research foundation for 2 yrs and it needed patience due to the language barrier we had to work on in addition to the school work. I saw success in this students who made it todifferent colleges when some of them could not speak English when they first got here. I always strived to be the best student I can be. I have a bachelors in business and a master diploma in computer Science. I started but have not continued with my MBA due to lack of funds. I have been lucky to secure jobs that have given me extensive experience as a Financial analyst in different industies including Healthcare.

My source of income all throughout college has been through tutoring either at the college level or at the elementary and high school level. I am currently working on my Master's in Adolescence Education degree which I should complete in December 2008. I am student teaching as well as tutoring at a local community center in Buffalo. My student teaching experiences were in Regents Chemistry at a Buffalo Public School and 7th grade science. My background in Biochemistry has allowed me to witness where an education in science could lead to many opportunities in the job market. During my undergrad I was taught how to tutor students at the Tutoring Lab where I worked. Teaching students how to think critically is the key to success in any subject area. I found that asking students questions in a systematic way helps build a habit that allows them to approach any situation and come out su

I am very passionate about helping children learn, and to be a mentor for them. I have three years of experience in tutoring children part time and as a volunteer. I have tutored in the areas of math, history, and science. I will obtain my Bachelors in May 2011. I have tutored children in groups and one on one. I enjoy both. However I really enjoy one on one because I feel like I can help a struggling student that my not have the confidence to ask questions in a group. One on one sessions also allow students to express concern about other issues other than academic areas. I believe that If I can increase the confidence in each child, there can be more children striving to do their best academically
