Since the 9th grade, I have been tutoring people that are close to me and my fellow classmates. I have always wanted to make it an official business. I have been tutoring classmates, cousins, and college students. The people that I have been tutoring has always came back for more tutoring or whenever they needed help. I have tutored in math, science, social studies, and Prep tests for college. Call me at 205-222-7574 for tutoring. email me at addy.alexandria@live.com

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.

Very professional and I love helping students. I have tutored on every level, k-12 as well as college courses. Experienced in calculus I, calculus II, calculus III, advanced calculus I, advanced calculus II, AP Calculus, trigonometry, geometry, algebra, and many more. I was the first freshman in the history of my institution to become a mathematics tutor via the college. Graduated with a 3.7 gpa and I was the #1 mathematics student in my graduating class.

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 the years I have tutored school-age children in all subjects, although I specialize in tutoring math and science. All of my pupils have shown improvement in their scores, with one particular case bringing a failing grade to a C in one reporting cycle. 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 exper

I served both as a tutor at the Center of Teaching and Learning (CTL) and as an academic peer advisor for the college of Arts and Sciences at the University of Alabama. At the university, i gave lectures in science courses including chemistry, physics, and mathematics. I know when a student is confused or bored and i know how to change the teaching style to keep them focused. More importantly, i relate scientific concepts to everyday activities which have proven to be very effective in the art of teaching. I obtained a bachelor of science in chemistry from the University of Alabama. But more importantly, i was deeply involved with cutting-edge scientific research throughout my undergraduate experience. In essence, I didn't just study to pass my exams, I studied to understand the material so that I can be able to teach someone else. I have also tutored introductory physics I and II at the

As a McGill University graduate, I was very driven to excel in my science based courses. I have earned a Bachelor's degree in Mathematics and Chemistry which has enabled me to gain a thorough understanding in many areas of math and science. For the past few years I have enjoyed spending my time tutoring youth and young adults in basic science, mathematics and in the French language, and teaching adults the English language. For a few years I have also had the opportunity to tutor young children in French and music. I love teaching and working with children of all ages and abilities. I'm a firm believer in creative learning through fun and interesting activities. I am also a firm believer that everyone learns at different paces and through different means: using visual, auditory, and tactile learning to find what works best. I am patient and understanding and strive to find the best

I enjoy working with students of all ages, although most of my experience has been with middle school age and older. I use a couple of different techniques to help students understand math, including using visual aides, problem solving techniques, role reversal (where they explain a lesson to me), blackboard/whiteboard work, and games. I believe it's really the responsibility of the tutor to understand the student's learning style and adjust the teaching to fit the learning style. I have tutored students in math and science (mainly math) for over 13 years. I have helped students in various levels of mathematics - basic math, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and pre-calculus. After working with me on a consistent basis (2/3 days/week) many of the students have received honors in their math courses, including "Most Improved" and "Highest Average". I am also proud to say that a couple

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

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 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 number of undergrad students along with a more formal semester of 'coaching' a class of undergrads in their regular physics class. This entailed going over problems with them, showing them how to correctly formulate solutions. On top of this, I worked, formally, as a graduate teaching assistant for 2 years, and I taught in the Birmingham public schools (high school level) as a physics teacher. All told, quite a lot of teaching involved with all levels of students. 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 prob

I enjoy teaching and helping students learn something new and am willing to be patient with any leaner until he has mastered a new skill. I believe that all children learn differently. Therefore, teaching a child using the learning style in which they learn the best is the key to academic success. I have earned a BS in Chemistry and a Minor in Biology. Over the past two years I have tutored students in chemistry and biology as a professional tutor and on a volunteer basis. Through my research experiences on the UAB campus I have gained valued skills in drafting research papers and scientific reports.
