Math, Statistics,Writing, ACT/SAT/GRE Test Prep

I am a retired college/university professor, and have been tutoring actively for the last six years (privately, as well as in a mentoring program at a community college). My tutoring experience has focused primarily upon mathematics, statistics, writing, Test Prep (e.g., ACT,SAT, GRE, math placement tests), chemistry and economics. Students have told me that I explain otherwise difficult material (especially in mathematics), in a down-to-earth and commonsense manner that makes sense intuitively.
Flexible, down-to-earth -- I try to figure out how YOU learn best.

Math & Test Prep Tutor

When I was in high school I had a lot of anxiety about math. I went back to college late in life and I was terrified that I would have to take a few math courses to graduate. It wasn't long before math was my favorite class and I changed my major. When I was in school I helped a lot of my classmates with calculus. After I graduated I got a job as a tutor working with high school students on preparation for college entrance exams and mathematics. I found that to be very rewarding.

More About This Tutor...

My experience with tutoring ranges from being tutored in middle school at Sylvan Learning Center (due to not being challenged enough in my private school classroom) to tutoring fellow classmates and my friends' younger siblings in a range of subjects during high school and college. I have extensive experience instructing and guiding 12 through 17 year olds from working as a camp counselor for three consecutive summers. The nature of my double major in religion and philosophy from Calvin College dictated that the bulk of my coursework focused on abstract thinking, theoretical reasoning, and argumentative essay writing. The liberal arts collegiate curriculum I pursued included calculus and metaphysics among other challenging and broadening courses. I am driven by creative problem solving, challenging situations, and helping those around me succeed. I enjoy working hard for my o ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am new to tutoring, but not to teaching. In college, whether I was studying differential equations or the intricacies of cellular processes, I took the time to support my classmates and explain difficult concepts. When I was called to service, I spent four years in the Air Force, lecturing, mentoring, and teaching my fellow servicemembers, breaking down highly technical information and helping them succeed. While I find Math and Science fields fascinating, I love the English language and I'm looking forward to helping students improve their writing skills as well.
My goal is to help my students truly understand the material and how it connects to both other fields of study and their own life. This comprehensive approach reduces test-taking anxiety and improves confidence, giving the student the tools he or she needs to move forward in their education. I tend to ask the stude ... read more

My teaching style is a mixture of many elements. The first thing I do is to make students enthusiastic about their studies. To give subtle motivation and build interest, I make the topic applicable to a person’s life. The next step is to work on confidence. You have to help students see that it is possible to overcome personal difficulties with specific subjects. To do this, I focus on each learner’s strengths and break topics down into manageable parts. I ask the questions that will direct each student to make connections on their own. As frustration is an inevitable part of learning for struggling students, I always remain flexible and ready to try a new tactic when necessary.

As a mathematics graduate, I am very detail-oriented and organized. Throughout college I tutored college students in calculus, business math, and statistics. I also tutored high school students in Algebra 1 and 2, Trigonometry, and Geometry. My easy-going and patient teaching style created many referrals that made me a successful and lucrative tutor. During the past six years I have tutored all levels of math with students ranging from Kindergarten to College age.
Although I earned a mathematics degree, I struggled to gain complete competence in algebra and geometry. I believe that my initial struggles have enabled me to become a better teacher because I constantly offer several ways of solving a problem to my students. I do not have to pause and wait for them to comprehend the material the first try. I can simply try re-phrasing or a different method. Also, I am intrinsica ... read more

I think that learning is subjective. Every person will have the opportunity to learn if they have an instructor that can meet their needs. I work well with children, young adults, and adults. I am patient and attentive. I believe that asking questions is the best way to find and address gaps in understanding and facilitate teaching the appropriate material.
As the graduate of a difficult field of science, I spent a great deal of time studying and developing better methods for studying. I have become very knowledgeable in science and applied science through my degree field. I have also spent much time reading and writing scientific articles, which has made me proficient in English, general literacy, and writing. Throughout my college career, I have been tutoring and leading study sessions in science.

A Little Bit About Me...

The more time I spend with kids, the more I realize how many different ways they learn. Kids have taught me a great deal about looking at things from a different point of view and teaching to a variety of levels, abilities, and learning styles. I KNOW each child has the ability to learn. Unfortunately, I also know each child has the ability to feel failure and confusion. My greatest pleasure is seeing students grasp a concept that was previously very foreign. A kid who breaks a smile while struggling to learn a challenging idea means success to me. I aspire to make students feel comfortable, supported, accepted, and encouraged through my patience, understanding, rethinking, and openness. Ideally, my students will find their own motivation, strength and determination to find future success in educational endeavors. I know I am making a difference in each life I touch and I feel lucky to h ... read more

My teaching style is trying to relate to each person and make everything easier for them. Dealing with A.D.D my entire life, I've learned how to break apart the entire problem(or essay) into better and more clear parts. A good educator needs to demand accountability from it's students. I believe that a student needs to do a little work every day, instead of a lot in one day. I stress that every student keeps a notebook that highlights main ideas in every subject. I have been through it, so I know what is important long-term.
I'm a 27 year old that accepted a part-time internship in Fort Collins, Colorado. Also, I'm in the process of applying for PHD programs (starting in 2011) in hopes of becoming a professor in the long-run.

As a current middle school teacher and former high school teacher, I have discovered several teaching techniques to attain the highest level of success in the middle school and high school classrooms. These experiences have helped me not only understand the diverse learning styles of a variety of individuals, but also find ways to make learning exciting and relevant. Over the past decade I have tutored, taught, and observed several subjects including math, science, language arts, and social studies. I believe these experiences have helped me understand and appreciate why children at times struggle through school. I have chosen education as my profession because I believe I have the ability to help people succeed in life and school.

I am a retired statistician, with degrees in physics, aeronautical engineering and business. The following is a summary of my tutoring experience: As a student at M.I.T., I designed and taught a 6-week class on "Airplanes and Space Flight" to area high school students at "M.I.T. High School." When my sons were in middle school, I designed and taught a 6-session course on Statistics to 10 students. I provided group tutoring in pre-algebra and algebra to students at a private school in Virginia. I tutored math and physics at The Tutor Center in Loveland, the Larimer County Workforce Center, and the Thompson School District. I will be teaching an enrichment course on statistical literacy to senior citizens in Larimer County.
I am particularly adept at explaining mathematical concepts and techniques to students. I find a way to build on what the student already knows. I fin ... read more
