I started teaching six years ago and gradually started getting a lot more students than I had anticipated mainly because of my methods and explaining the most difficult areas in simplest ways. I use everyday examples to explain difficult topics and have taught students from a wide range of background for many examination boards including AQA, EDEXCEL,OCR, MEI, IB, JEB, CIE, WJEC,etc. As well as this I have also tutored students who are home schooled. I do past papers with students from the last 10-15 years and I make sure that my students knows all the exam solving techniques thoroughly and have complete knowledge to master the subject. I have taught more than 350 students all across UK majority (85-90%) achieving A grades Tutoring Approach: I like to tailor my tuition depending on the student's individual needs as I understand and respect that each student is unique.

I am a retired engineer who has been substitute teaching for about 4 years including several long term positions. I have a BS in Mechanical Engineering and a MS in teaching with addition coursework in Electrical Engineering and Math. My tutoring experience started in Adirondack Community College’s math lab where I was helping a wide variety of students get through their math classes. I try to adapt my teaching style to the student. I keep trying different methods until we find what works best. This is probably why many of my students have told me that I am great at explaining things so they understand it. Being proficient at math is similar to being proficient at playing a musical instrument. You can’t learn to play an instrument by going to concerts and watching other people perform. Similarly, you can’t learn math by watching the teacher solve problems. I try to guide stud

Having received both my undergraduate and graduate degrees from Cornell University and the University of California in the area of physical science (Atmospheric Science), I have attained a high level of knowledge in multiple areas ranging from Math and Science (particularly Physics) as well as Chemistry and Biology. In addition, while at Cornell University I earned a Minor in Communications focusing on both Written and Oral Communication. Regarding my abilities as a tutor, at Cornell I was employed as a Teaching Assistant for two upper level courses in the area of physical science. Lastly, as a local graduate of Queensbury High, I have first hand experience with New York State Regents exams. I very much enjoy teaching both children and young adults. It gives me great satisfaction in helping others achieve a higher level of knowledge and skills. In addition, I feel that tutoring is a

Currently, I work for the Saratoga Springs and Ballston Spa school districts as a home instructor for grades 6 to 12. I enjoy working with the kids one on one and feel wonderful about helping them stay up to date with their school work until they are physically able to return to the regular classroom setting. Aside from home instruction, I also work regularly as a substitute for Saratoga County schools, and have built up a great working relationship with all faculty and students in each building that I am assigned. Prior to working for Saratoga Springs, I taught 1st grade for two years at PS 325 which is located in Manhattan. I had a very successful run at PS 325, and I am proud of my accomplishments with the children especially in the area of mathematics and reading. Lacking opportunities at home, many of my children faced incredible challenges when it came to learning thus I had

How do I summarize teaching in my life? I guess the best way to explain my teaching experience is to tell you a story. As a young girl I wanted to be a teacher. Because of my love of learning I taught all my siblings how to read. I know it is pretty funny but it is a true story. That led to my doing teaching seminars, which led to consulting, which led to training, which led to my working with individuals as a life coach. I have been a CEO, Vice President, Consultant, Senior Broker, Artist, Photographer, Glass Blower, Jewelry Designer and writer, the job titles have changed over the years; the only consistent has been that teaching has always been a part of my working life. I fundamentally believe anyone can learn. If a student isn’t grasping a concept, it just means I have to change my style of teaching. So what is my teaching style…anything that helps a student achieve his or h

During my 30 years of teaching, I have developed many activities, demonstrations, discussions, and inquiry learning techniques to help students understand the concepts of science. For the past seven years, I have been tutoring after school. My teaching is visual and hands-on, with demonstrations, diagrams and examples from every-day life. I seek to discuss information with my students rather than lecture to them. I develop individualized programs based on a student’s learning style, motivation, strengths and weaknesses. In test preparation, I often do survey tests to tell me what the student knows and doesn’t know,to be most effective with their time. I have taught inner city schools, public schools, private schools, alternative education school, summer school, adult classes and college extension courses; giving me a wide range of experiences with different students.

I love teaching, coaching and mentoring children. My pleasure derives from your child’s success at school or in their lives. I have tutored children at several levels, with varying degrees of leaning capacities. I teach them techniques to learn, remember, apply the knowledge and take different types of tests/quizzes. I spend considerable amount of time in learning students’ educational background and preparing myself to teach such that tutoring does not feel a burden to a kid, and kids show more interest in learning and absorbing relative subject matters. I take pride and strive to make a significant contribution to building career of their choices to all of students I teach. · Well Experienced Tutor, over 25 years, for Mathematics and Sciences · Expert tutoring for SAT, ACT, GRE, GMAT · Expert in Algebra, Calculus, Geometry, Trigonometry, Statistics - all levels starting with Basic

I believe in the "practice makes perfect" approach, especially when it comes to math, science, and language study. That said, I also believe that practice can be interesting, fun, encouraging and reinforcing. I would hope to help a student figure out how to learn and approach new challenges with confidence and enthusiasm. Sometimes what a child needs most is to simply understand that he or she is capable of achieving. Instilling self-affirmation is an extremely important part of teaching, and that would be my goal in working with your child. I began teaching as a college sophomore at MIT. For 9 years, I taught primarily Multivariable Calculus, but also single-variable Calculus, Linear Algebra, and several writing courses. Since graduating, I have been involved in various volunteer tutoring efforts. My minors are in Math, German, and Writing. I happen to be a black female, the first to

As an undergraduate at Rhode Island College, I studied Physics and Mathematics. During this time, I was on the Dean's List for all 8 semesters, and earned the departmental award in Physics. When I was not working on my studies, I tutored both college students in the Physical Sciences Department, and high school students for the Upward Bound Program, which seeks to prepare inner-city high school students for their first year of college. I was lucky enough to have a number of great teachers throughout my schooling, and this has helped me realize what a difference these extraordinary educators can make. In taking courses with them, I have found that the most important things are to be patient and respectful. I realize that not every student has the same learning style, and in my tutoring experience I have been able to adapt and achieve success for all of my students.

I believe that the mark of a talented instructor is not just being knowledgeable, but also being able to dynamically engage her students; effectively impart her knowledge to them; and remain aware of learning differences and accommodate her teaching style accordingly. Therefore, I aim to be as collaborative, engaging, and flexible as possible. My impression of myself as this type of teacher has been corroborated by my students’ verbal and written feedback. In addition to these elements, my teaching style is influenced by my familiarity with the empirical literature in the area of learning impairment and an understanding of how a person’s relative cognitive strengths and weaknesses may affect his/her academic performance. Also, the clinical aspect of my graduate training helps me with interpersonal effectiveness across a number of settings. In short, the integration between my professiona

I am a graduate of elecrical engineering and computer science with ABET accreditation. From early on in my studies I've enjoyed tutoring students of Mathematics,Computers,Technology,Science and Engineering courses. I've also conducted many science lab experiments and written reports of my findings. I strive to work with each student as a team toward improved course performance to match their individual goals. I've enjoyed working with students of all ages, background and grade level in coursework such as Math,Science,Computer and Engineering courses from seventh grade through undergraduate college. By teaching concepts rather than memorization skills that usually bore the student I work with each student and their own "easiest way" of learning to increase skills and self-confidence.
