Focused Math Tutor with dedication and direction

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 wit ... read more

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 an ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As an undergraduate student I was always in the top ten percentile of my math, chemistry and biology classes, and as a result, I tutored fellow college students in those respective subjects. After earning my bachelor degree in biology, I worked as an educator at the South Carolina Aquarium where I taught interactive classes to kindergarten, middle school and high school students. I also worked for the Leadership Development Program at the College of Charleston where I co-facilitated student leadership classes. And most recently, while in graduate school I held a teaching assistant position and tutored freshman and sophomore college students in topics related to international development.
My teaching style is based on the student’s learning style. Each child is different and may require different teaching methods to facilitate learning. Some children are more visual and may require ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and engaging with people of all ages. Everyone learns in a different way, and it is kind of exciting to see how people think and try to connect with them. I believe that it is possible for anyone to learn; some people just have to take a different approach to get to their objective. I love the entire learning and teaching process, and I am pretty fond of people as well!
I can be helpful in math up through Algebra II, and have extensive knowledge of counseling, religious studies, writing, and have used accounting a bit in bookkeeping. I could tutor social studies up through high school because I have found such a great overlap between religion and counseling and human services. Right now I am in a class on trauma and presenting on human trafficking. I can tutor English in grammar and writing composition simply because of all the writing I have had to do for college. ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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 al ... read more

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.

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 older students, college and adults, I teach them study skills and notetaking and then go over the subject matter that they learned in class,
I have tutored my own children and have taught them to think cr itically and I tutored for 2 years as a Grad Assitant. I have worked in the Biological Science field for many years and I really enjoy teaching kids about science and it's impact on society

I've always enjoyed teaching. I taught in different contexts, worked with children and adults in classes, camps, and corporate training sessions. I taught French, dance, and worked as a tutor while preparing my degree. My ability to work hands-on and with labs makes it easier for any student to apply the acquired knowledge from theory to practice. My experience with non profit organizations made me realize that knowledge transmitted is always a plus. Anywhere in the world knowledge transmitted is a value acquired for life not only for the students but also for the teacher.

My approach to tutoring is that all students want to learn, some just need more of a push that others. It is my job to make the subject more relevant, interesting and understandable for them. I assume everyone is capable of learning the material and I am very skilled at differentiating my instruction to suit the needs of all levels of learners. I believe parents have a hard enough job, and it is sometimes best for someone else to tackle school subjects where the students are not thriving. Students often benefit from a fresh perspective and if their self-esteem is at all suffering from difficulties at school, having a new person involved in their lives can help them feel more confident again.

I have worked with children and adult learners for quite a while now. So, from my experience and formal education, I know that children and adults learn in different ways. The ways in which they process information that is presented on any given subject really depends on the students learning style. I tailor my instruction to the individuals learning style( visual, auditory, kinesthetic ).
I have always had a passion for math and science. This passion has lead me to pursue careers in areas that will allow me to apply my knowledge of math and science. However, while in these fields I discovered that I enjoyed helping and teaching others. So, after realizing this I decided to go into teaching full time. I have scored the open ended portions of math and science standardized tests. After being a scorer I moved into the area of educational training where I trained others to score t ... read more

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.
