I earned my Masters Degree in Mathematics from the University of Kansas. I have over 10 years of teaching experience at the University of Kansas and I am currently a visiting professor at DeVry University. Recently I have authored several mathematics textbooks for iBooks. My interactive calculus book was featured in the Apple Keynote address for the iPad mini. I was nominated GTA of the year in 2010 at the University of Kansas for my teaching performance. I also received the award of tutor of the year in 2006 for the Kansas Algebra Program at the University of Kansas. For 3 semesters I was director of Mathematics Placement Exams at KU. Also for 4 years I was a supervisor at the Kansas Algebra Program at KU, which involved managing a math help room that served hundreds of students on a daily basis. In my experience I have helped students of all learning types and abilities. I

My name is Alex and I have Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Engineering from Kansas State University. I graduated from Bishop Miege High School. I scored a 34 on the ACT and I have 5 years of tutoring experience at KSU in subjects such as Geometry, Trigonometry and College Algebra all the way to Differential Equations. I am currently tutoring 5 different students for the ACT and each have shown a 3-5 point improvement in their test scores since they began their sessions with me. Based on my experience, I believe that anyone has the capability to learn and expand their knowledge on a subject - if they put the work in. My goal is for my students to begin to "learn how they learn" so they can develop the self-confidence to begin solving problems on their own. I facilitate student growth by assessing strengths and weaknesses, focusing on problem areas, and improving problem solving skills.

While Spanish is my specialty, I'm very capable and willing to help in many areas. I am especially good with math and grammar. My method is very student-led. The goal is to find ways of studying that use as many as possible of the following: seeing, hearing, speaking, reading, and writing. I have found that reading and writing are often a given so the challenge is incorporating the other methods. I seek to use variety and to communicate and experiment with my students to find what works best for them. I have been learning and speaking Spanish for 13 years! I would argue that my understanding of grammar is better than most native speakers. I majored in Spanish at Brigham Young University. I lived in the Foreign Language Student Residence for a school year to become more fluent. I also did a couple of mission trips in Mexico and a summer internship with a local Spanish radio station.

Friendly I had two years of experience at IT industry. Prior to that i have a great knowledge in mathematics.i did work as an assitant for my inter level math tutor. I am more interested in teaching maths rather any other subjects. I am good all over my acedamics and scored 99 percent in my 10th grade. I always love to solve puzzels and want to help others by teaching. So i choose teaching even at my work with a software company. I enjoy taking to people and help making the choices.

I put mysef in the shoes of my student after reading the mind of my student. My first goal is to remove the phobia that scares and discourages most of the learners. I motivate those who gave up to learn. I am innovative. I use strategies and resource that help my students start from their present level upward after building self confidence. Step by step success leads to a major success. I believe everyone can learn when you light the fireworks of 'desire to learn' in their mind. You must win the mind and confidence of your students and tutees. My belief is that my students can learn when given appropriate learning experiences with patience and care. I am a master teacher and mathematics, chemistry physics instructor at Senior High School level. I have been teaching and tutoring these subjects for 30 years. My experience ranges from Algebra, Geometry, Trig, Pre-Calculus, Calculus,

I am very hands on. I like to first show how a problem is done, discuss the purpose of each step and then the student work the problem. From there I prefer to have students work problems and ask questions as they come up. After each problem is complete I then review the problem with the student. As a graudate student I was a held a postion as a Graudate Research Assistant for the Geotechnical Lab. As such I taught undergraduate students the theory behind laboratory test, what each test provides the engineer and how to conduct the test. Furthermore I assisted undergraduate students with homework problems and helped them prepare for tests.

I have always picked things up quickly, more quickly than my peers. My peers have often come to me to ask for my help in those areas. I also see how to apply what I have learned to original problems because I see connections and hold a deeper understanding of the material. My double major in Chemistry and Biochemistry with a mino in Mathematics was full of its fair share of difficult material, and I was almost always able to help my peers, as well as younger students, through their problems. I can usually find a way to relate the material that the student is struggling with to something else that they understand. When they can make connections to more familiar things, then they can think themselves through problems more effectively. I usually achieve this by showing them how to do a problem, doing a problem or two with them, and then having them do problems on their own, only assisting w

I graduated with a B.S. degree in Genetics from Iowa State University, with a minor in statistics, enabling me to gain an in depth understanding of science and mathematics. I was a very driven student, every semester I excelled in a full 18 credit hours, while working in a genetics research lab and being actively involved in many clubs, as well as collegiate athletics tutoring. After the completion of my Bachelor's degree, I accepted a research position at a National Research Institute. During my time in Chicago, I began tutoring high school students in the areas of Chemistry, Biology and Geometry. I have since earned a Master's Degree in Molecular Entomology from Kansas State Univ. My previous tutoring experiences have allowed me to gain valuable insight into the academic tutoring process. My tutoring style includes taking a proactive approach towards assessing the student using a learn

I am currently an instructor for ITT Technical Institute for the past five years. I teach Economics, Group Dynamics, Problem Solving, Math I and other various general education courses. My experience has been primarily with the adult learners however, I do have experience in working with children from grade school through high school. I earned a Bachelors with an emphasis in Finance/Economics and Management along with a MBA from Rockhurst University I believe in bringing the student into the process through using different approaches ensuring the student has gained the necessary skill. I am very patient and have learned to approach each student individually with their own style. I truly love teaching and am glad I found it later in my career.

I am currently in my last year of undergraduate work in mathematics at UMKC. I have been an informal math tutor for numerous students in the last few years. Last semester I worked for the UMKC Physics department as a lab assistant for graduate students, and did physics tutoring. I have a strong knowledge in mathematics all the way up through differential equations, and advanced proofs techniques. I realize I do not yet have a plethora of experience, but helping fellow students with math has always been enjoyable and rewarding to me. I enjoy tutoring because it allows me to share the thought processes I go through when trying to solve a math problem. In high school I struggled with mathematics, which I believe has always given me a special insight into other people's struggle with the subject. In my opinion the best way to teach someone is to simply discuss the subject with them until you

I love teaching -- standing in front of a class of students, feeling the pressure of their attention and responsibility for their education -- but I think I enjoy tutoring more. Even when I was teaching a class of twenty-five college freshmen, I tried to move things in that direction, giving my students incentives to come by during my office hours (hard to do with such busy students). In the classroom, I made good use of the SMART boards (interactive computer displays), although I also enjoyed just talking to the students: I made the classroom a place that was relaxed and open to free discussion, but one which also had a purpose (basically, to learn to write). I enjoy teaching and working with children: my parents adopted my two little sisters when I was a teenager and decided to home school them, so I helped out with their education. I recently completed graduate work in English at

A variety of instructional methods must be used to engage all students in learning. In order to help a child reach his or her potential, a teacher must be willing to acknowledge that student's learning style and work toward improving the child's weaknesses while also enhancing his or her strengths. As a middle school teacher for the past two years, I have discovered that most students learn best and most profoundly when they are allowed to partipate in their own learning instead of just taking orders. As a student at Grinnell College, I was motivated to achieve at a high level. During my four years of college, I earned a BA in French and Biology. I also spent four months during my third year studying in France, where I lived with a host mother and attended classes at a local university. Currently, I am working toward earning my Master's Degree in Education at the University of Missouri-S
