Calculus I Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Falmouth, MA

Having over a decade of teaching and tutoring experience, I have worked in both the public and private sector. I have taught science and math for grades 8 - 12 and have tutored students ages 10 and up. In addition, I ran the library late night / homework help center program at a local high school. In my last position, I specialized in working with students having learning and or emotional difficulties including anxiety, depressions, ADHD, and autism.

I am very easy going, I love math, and there will be no over the top expectations, just comfortably paced results. I graduated in 2008 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering, and I have tutored approximately three people continuously since then, including fellow employees of mine, currently pursuing similar degrees. I coached baseball right out of College as well, and deal well with children / young adults of all ages.

I'm patient and listen to the student to see what they get and don't get about the premise of the lesson. Then we get to it. Careful reinforcement of the Correct method will ensure Remembrance and Results. Also, Lessons must be approached within the context of the Big Picture. Students need to realize that there are no pointless or forgettable sections. Basically, communication is key followed by practice, reinforcement, more practice. Learning can be at pace, but laziness and whining will not be tolerated. I have a Bachelor of Art in History, predominantly American. I also pursued Engineering for my first year and plan to go back to College. I have completed through Calculus II and am also experienced in hands-on mechanical. I have limited tutoring experience, but I know I can listen and respond. Any experience came from helping others in classes during College.

I hold an Honour's degree (equivalent to a bachelor's degree) in Statistics. During my studies, I was a student assistant for courses in end user computer skills. I've also done one-on-one mathematics tutoring to students from grades 8 to 12 for two years. In the final year of my degree I was a junior lecturer for a semester. I taught Statistics to a class of 60 and achieved a 100% pass rate for the course. From my experience working with learners/students in both a classroom and a one-on-one capacity, I am comfortable working in either area. I am extremely patient and pride myself on making my students feel comfortable with me and I can adapt my teaching style to suit each child as needed. I come from long line of excellent teachers (as both my parents and my mother's father were all teachers and then principals) so it is in my blood. I know how to relate to children and therefore know

Informal for large groups as I wanted the students to see me as like them, but with enough capability to inspire them to listen. I learned early on you cannot make anybody learn anything. You must inspire them to want to learn. At the 1-on-1 setting (tutoring level), I work at a very detailed level with the particular student I have with me at the time. Each one is sufficiently different to warrant different teaching approaches to maximum effect and retention. During my Doctoral candidate years, I worked as both a engineering lecturer and laboratory instructor for 3 different engineering fields. The fields were circuit design, applied mathematics and practical laboratory equipment usage. I also gave lectures in Applied Optics (physics) for Seniors at Clarkson University during my last Doctoral year (1984-85) at campus.

I strive to design experiences for students to step through to shatter their preconceived notions about math and the physical universe, and get them to understand underlying relationships. I work so that students see themselves as problem solvers through techniques involving the use of their developing understanding of concepts with memorable models. I like to exploit the visualization of physics and calculus concepts available on – line and to use web – based simulators. I believe that I am in a unique position to help your students learn both physics and math. The experiences that I have had teaching various math courses and physics, I think, allow me to frame lessons that address the subjects in a way that dovetails with students’ previous knowledge, and asks and answers the essential questions that the math or physics curriculum should involve.

Following school graduation, I have been actively teaching younger people the value of the trades. I work with them enhancing their math and geometry skills by leading by example; and showing them in an applied manner how their skills and education can be applied in the real world.. As a bachelors graduate with subject concentration in math and science, I am very involved teaching peers and younger people in a applied manner. My experience has been hands on teaching in the trades with skills in carpentry and math.

The key to teaching Mathematics is to let the student discover the Math through leading questions and enthusiastic teaching methods. Many teachers neglect to embrace the beauty of Mathematics and how it is a unique form of art. A negative disposition, especially with Mathematics, most often times lead to failure In American society, it is socially acceptable to be poor at mathematics. This mentality is encouraged my other students, teachers, and even parents! If I worked as a part of your team, I will try my best to inspire struggling students and make them think in a way they never have before. Ever since I was a young child, my interest in Mathematics has been profound. Mathematics is much more than a class subject; I have interwoven mathematics as an integral (no pun intended) part of my life since I was a toddler. In High school I was frequently participating in Calculus competitions

Currently I have been working in Elementary School in the Fall River School Department. I have been placed in grades Pre-Kindergarten to Fifth grade. I also am pursuing my masters in High School Mathematics. Also in High School I was part of the peer tutoring club where I excelled at teaching others. My teaching style changes based on how the student has been taught previously and I will try different methods to see what will work best for the individual. I know all students learn differently so I may take a direct method where we will go over the facts and jump straight into the material. Another method will be re-examining the material and finding what the student already knows and how that student normally studies.

I have wanted to teach since I was in second grade, and am currently working toward my license in Massachusetts. I believe that knowledge is an intimate thing, and that learning should be fun, and confidence-building. I use eliciting techniques, bringing student knowledge to the table first, and then build upon it. Knowing a student is important for preparing relevant materials for class. I believe technology is an important tool that can enhance the learning process when implemented appropriately. My Zen professor in college taught our class that in order to be a good teacher, one must be a good student. I strive to embody that principle. I have tutored students privately in subjects ranging from languages to math since 2001. One student has continued French lessons four hours a week every summer for five years. I completed a one-year French as a foreign language course in Martinique. I

As an undergraduate student I double majored in Biology and philosophy. Biology has provided me with a strong understanding in chemistry, biochemistry, ecology, evolution, and physics. Along with that, my philosophy degree has provided me with the ability to clearly communicate my ideas to another person. I have a lot of patience which allows me to take my time when going over a concept to a student. I never feel the need to rush or come back to a topic later. I will cover it thoroughly.

Mathematics courses are interactive in nature. Students should work under the professor’s guidance to learn and use mathematical properties. Individual and group work should be assigned both in class and for out of class application. Some lecture and demonstration should occur. Practice in using mathematical properties should be central to the courses. For each course, a course outline should be given to the students which should include the course description, attendance, resources, course format, evaluation and course objectives. With the aid of mathematics, students will consequently use their latent talents to improve themselves and society. For several years, I have devoted my life in the teaching of mathematics in the university’s teacher training division; many of the students have become excellent teachers of mathematics all over the world.

With a Master of Education in Special Needs I acquired the skills and knowledge necessary to adapt instructional practices for diverse learners. Working in partnership with the child, parent(s), and school districts I developed meaningful learning activities addressing the specific academic needs of the child. I have tutored children and young adults whose abilities ranged from special needs to advanced placement. I have taught mathematics, writing, reading, social studies and science throughout elementary, middle school and high school. Talking with students and analyzing their work samples determines their needs. I ask students to complete a "multiple intelligence" survey to determine their learning strengths. In designing delivery of services I incorporate specific strategies to complement their learning styles. For example, a visual/spatial learner would benefit from drawing pictures
