Calculus I Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Forsyth, MO

Over the last 4-6 years I've had to teach coworkers the intricacies of engine technology (basic hydrocarbon breakdown and nitrogen depleting systems) to basic geometry and electrical circuits ( from creating concentric bends in pipe to large scale automated systems). I have not taught english to an 11th grader in a public school, but I make it a fact to learn everyday and spread the knowledge to whomever i come into contact with and is willing to learn. I have recently been studying and implementing hydrogen generating systems and the effects of injecting it into internal combustion engines. I believe teaching is best learned though practical examples (especially math). because I used to say the same thing that I'm sure that kids today are saying. When am i ever going to use this in my daily life? Its important to let them see the applications from knowing calculus based formulas to pred

My first responsibility is the empowerment of my students. I always want my students to have a concrete sense of motivation and what their goals are, even if it's just getting a passing grade. Next, I want my students to believe that they are capable of reaching their goals. If they are capable of performing under one set of circumstances, it's possible to perform under any set of circumstances, especially tests. After that, we get down to the brass tacks of learning: How the student learns best, what strategies we can use, and how much building or remodeling we have to do. I graduated summa cum laude in the Honors College at Missouri State with a degree in cell and molecular biology and extensive studies in math and physics. I have been working as a private tutor in math and science for 10 years, working with students in upper elementary through college. I have been a certified teac

I received a Bachelor of Science in Education with an emphasis in Secondary Mathematics (grades 9-12) from Missouri State University. Having always enjoyed math, I was able to pick it up easily. During the last 5 years, I have helped my peers who are struggling in their math classes understand the math concepts while having fun doing it. I student taught at both Central High School in Springfield and Pleasant Hope High School in Pleasant Hope where I taught Integrated Math 2, Alternative Math, Integrated Algebra 2, Algebra 2, and Geometry. I took Latin for 6 years and completed 4 semesters in college. I also lived in Italy for 3 years, where I learned the language and studied it again for 2 years in high school. I believe every child can learn anything, it is just a matter of understanding how each child's brain functions. Some students learn by example and repetition, while some need ha

Aspects of teaching that appeal to me the most are the fast-paced learning setting which offers the benefits of teacher and student time, the continuity of care, and the pleasure of seeing students learn over time. I enjoy the versatility in balancing direct teaching and mentoring, interacting with students, and student progress management. While I was teaching at St. Patrick, in the summer 2008, and tutoring students at Williams College, I found that expressing my love and enthusiasm for math created a learning environment that fosters intellectual curiosity in the students. My goal always is to create an environment where there is no stigma attached to liking and being good at math. My recent personal experiences have helped me to develop a heightened sense of compassion and an appreciation for teaching.

During my Associates degree, I enjoyed the opportunity to work in the Excel/SSS student-tutoring department. I was recommended by several of my professors to tutor in the subjects of chemistry and mathematics. I tutored in subjects ranging from introduction to chemistry to general chemistry 1 along with mathematics subject from basic mathematics all the way to calculus 1. I enjoyed working with students very much and helping them to achieve above satisfactory. I always seemed to find a way to help the student to understand the subject matter. Overall, I can say that my practice working with the Excel/SSS department was a fantastic experience and I would love to put my talents to use in helping students to achieve greatness once again!

With 28 years teaching experience, I help struggling students blossom in Math. I love tutoring and can recognize road blocks in a student's mind that we can remove together for successful achievement. High School Algebra and Geometry were the subjects I taught most often, but I have tutored students expertly through courses as advanced as College Algebra. I also have GED experience tutoring in both Math and English, and ACT Test preparation. Tutoring is a joy! I truly embrace the challenge of each learner and try to discover the best methods and practices to help each child or adult meet his/her goals. Frequent follow-up questions to verify understanding, variety of techniques, encouragement and reviews combine to produce the effective strategy I have developed. I work creatively to get the learner down the road to success.

Throughout high school and college, I performed at an academic level well above average. As a result, I often found myself helping my fellow students. As part of my graduate assistantship at Missouri State, I work in the math tutoring lab several hours a week, tutoring (primarily) algebra and calculus students. I also teach MTH 102, which is approximately equivalent to high school Algebra II. I also have a great deal of experience in history, literature, English, and the natural sciences and have helped other students in these fields in the past. Although I have only been teaching in a classroom setting for the last two semesters, I have spent a great deal of time teaching friends and fellow students over the years. I am very patient and able to adapt to the student with whom I am working. I am a firm believer that learning, and learning math especially, is not a spectator sport and that

I recently completed my Master of Business Administration (Finance), during which time I had the opportunity to work as a graduate assistant and tutor students in math.I had the privilege of working with students of all ages with diverse needs in mathematics.These experiences ignited a passion in me for teaching students and a greater love for my favorite subject, mathematics. Instead of pursuing a career in business or finance I decided to pursue teaching and was recently licensed by the State of Missouri with an Initial Professional Certificate to teach Mathematics for grades 9-12. As an aspiring educator in the field of mathematics, my goal is to be able to use standardized assessments to gain an understanding of the student’s strengths and weaknesses and use discernment to create a differentiated approach to aid the learning process.My passion for being a mathematics teacher has the

My strongest subject is algebra (commutative, homological, or abstract). My degree is in general mathematics so I experienced most forms of mathematics at a high college level. I began tutoring as a freshman in high school. Professionally, I have spent ten years in management in four different industries. I have been told that I explain things well. 1) Give the person you are turtoring an opportunity to tell you where they are having a problem. 2) While working through problems monitor the person you are tutoring to see if there are other problems. 3) Suggest changes. Never force them. There isn't one correct way. Make a suggestion on how to improve and explain why you are making the suggestion. 4) Do multiple versions of a similar problem. The first time I will complete the problem, explaining each step. The next time the person I am tutoring will guide me through the problem, t
