My comments on tutoring Physics : Taught college level physics and basic thermodynamics

I have taught college level courses for twenty-five years and have enjoyed it greatly. Most of teaching has been at private colleges with small class size. Student evaluations have ranged from good to excellent. Students have particularly found me helpful in office visits. I have also tutored high school students in math and science.
I try to tailor the teaching method to the student.

I'm here to help :)

I have a BSc in molecular biology from Colorado State University in Fort Collins, Colorado. I have taught upper division laboratories at the college level, and previously worked as a scientist for the UFCVM where I participated in a wide variety of research and professional medical projects. I have tutored math, chemistry, physics and biology, and I'm currently working on obtaining a secondary degree in physics.
I like to tutor by working through problems with the student in a manner that builds his or her confidence - because every person can understand difficult scientific concepts but it takes a vivid imagination and solid guidance; I try to be that guidance.

Energetic Honors College Student Willing to Teach Others

Demonstration, Explanation, Process Learning
Over the course of my education I have taken almost every course offered in most public schools. I have taken numerous AP courses and passed the exams following the classes to gain college credit. I was accepted into the University of South Alabama Honors College and was awarded the Mitchell Business Scholars Scholarship from South Alabama. I scored a 32 on my ACT and graduated high school with a 3.89 GPA and represented the top 10% of my class upon graduating.

I worked first hand with professor and teaching assistant and have learned what they are looking for. I believe in teaching concepts and helping students fully understand ideals rather than students just memorizing facts. This way no matter what the professor asks they will know how to answer questions and ace exams. If they just memorize things, they can get confused and get answers distorted. I believe in hands on learning and teaching. I would make "Jeopardy" games to quiz students and also have fun at the same time. By quizing on concepts that are being taught, it gives insight to what the student is understanding and therefore, I can adjust and clarify things that the student is not understanding. I enjoy teaching and helping students.
I have a Bachelors degree in Biomedical Sciences. I have taken courses such as Biology, Chemistry, Genetics, Immunology, Microbiology, Organic ... read more

There is nothing more thrilling than to see the self esteem of a child or adult grow with sucess in an area that is challenging. I am a very patient, enthusiastic individual and am motivated to help others succeed. I am very adept in finding out learning styles of individuals and breaking apart difficult concepts. Most of all I do believe that all students can learn and everyone has their own pace.
I have always been an individual who loved learning and have always enjoyed helping others achieve educational goals to their highest ability. During high school I tutored junior high students in math and science. As an undergraduate at Mississippi State University I was employed as a junior and senior to teach biology labs to class sizes of 30-40. I have a BS in Biology and have had a career in clinical research.

After finishing my PhD I went to work for Monsanto as an organic analytical chemist. My speciality was the use of mass spectrometry to understand organic chemical reactions and the products and impurities that were formed. While working for Monsanto I also taught College chemistry classes (Organic I and II and the labs). I have over forty publications and forty presentations. I am the author of two books on Organic Analytical Chemistry. I was also honored by being appointed a Science Fellow in Monsanto. I am currently scheduled to teach Organic Chemistry I this summer at the University of West Florida.
I have always wanted to teach but enjoyed the research that was available working for a large chemical company. I had the opportunity to teach Organic while I was working and enjoyed it but the time constraints were tough. I am now retired from industry and will be teaching in the Ch ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I started tutoring math when I attended Faulkner State College. I then attended the University of South Alabama where I tutored math and physics. I have tutored all levels of math and also tutored not only physics, but lab activites as well.
I have always been a quick learner when it comes to mathematics. It is something that comes almost natural to me. With that said, I understand that this is not the case for everyone. I feel that a good majority of people hate math because they don't understand math, and because they don't understand math right away, they don't try to understand it. I had a wise professor once tell me, "Math isn't difficult; there is no such thing as difficult math. It just seems difficult because you haven't learned it yet". I think math can be easy for anyone, they just have to learn it first.

In my military experience, I see all sorts of learning styles and ability levels. I am able to break down hard concepts of math/science/engineering so that regardless of learning style, we can work towards understanding. I find that many students struggle because no professor has taken the time to relate it to the student in a way that they can internalize and retain. I firmly believe that everyone can reach their potential if high expectations are set and a path to reach goals is set forth. I chose to become a teacher in my spare time because I think that children deserve to be pushed to the highest standards to achieve goals, so the student’s success is my total focus. I’m relaxed, considerate, professional , and very flexible.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have always had a strong desire to learn and to teach. I work hard and I am diligent to complete a task. My joy is to work with children of any age to help them grow and develop and learn. I believe it takes love, grace and patience to teach a child. The student must not only be expected to learn from the tutor, but the tutor must also learn from the student. Learning can be made enjoyable when a teacher has an encouraging spirit and does not give up on their student. I believe that any child's capacity to learn is no different than my capacity to learn, however his or her learning style may be different than mine. I desire to teach and learn and to positively impact my student's life.
I have a BA in Philosophy/Religious Studies and I also studied Environmental Science with over 40 credit hours. Due to this wide range of studies, I have strong skills in both reading and writing, ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and working with students of all ages.I has found by experience that learning is affected by social, environmental, and cognitive factors. I believe that every student can learn, but instruction needs to be designed in a way that motivates them, focuses on the main objectives, and uses an effective response to instruction to assess performance. I am very patient and will develop different ways to retrain a student if traditional methods are not effective. .The ultimate goal for educators is to teach students how to teach themselves. Success should gradually improve a student’s self efficacy and lead to self directed learning. This skill level is especially important for secondary school students and adult learners.
I have a diverse educational background that has allowed me to excel in careers in the military, public and private sectors. In 1977 I earned a Bachelor ... read more

I believe that, although learning comes when you are a student but understanding comes when you start teaching. I always tell my students to be open and forward. I make sure that before they do their part of the job, I have done mine in research over the best way to make difficult concepts understood easily with practical Examples.
I am a BE-Electrical Engineer (Telecom Major). I Graduated in 2007 from PAF-KIET, an excellent technical Institute in Pakistan. In my four years as a student, I tutored a number of junior students in Engineering courses and tutored A & O Levels Students in advanced Maths and Physics.

Tutoring and teaching have always come quite naturally; the ability to see the struggle from the student's perspective, and recognizing the demand for creative explanations to old problems, are the core of my now developed skills as an educator. I have volunteered in Title 1 classrooms in St. Louis through Teach for America and have been assisting high school students for standardized tests for the last 5 years. My education in University has presented incredible context for my early education, giving it new life and understanding; the "whys" all make sense. My education has also demonstrated the need for understanding, as opposed to mere memorization.
There are many buzz words and phrases applied to teachers and teaching styles. While I perfectly respect all of these new theories and methods of both teaching and learning, it must not be forgotten that each student is unique in the ... read more

I have graduated from two technical courses in the air force and was a distinguished graduate from both. I graduated with honors from the Air Traffic Control Operators Course in 1983 with a 97% average. I was selected for instructor duty in 1986 and received extensive training on various instructing and teaching modalities along with counseling techniques. I enjoyed teaching so much that I went back to that profession, once again teaching for the air force from 2001-2003. I left that job to serve in Afghanistan as a civilian contractor as an air traffic controller and Chief Air Traffic Control Training. I decided to continue my education and am three months away from receiving my degree in Computer Electronics Engineering and presently hold a 3.98 GPA.
My experience in the air force has served me well. My style of teaching is to learn a little background including areas of interest ... read more

More than my love for teaching, I love imparting the knowledge that I have acquired over the years to students in simple palpable way. I believe I have the ability to break up complicated problems or concepts into smaller parts and explain them building up to help the student to have a complete overview. My teaching skill involves explaining every single step of the subject, as I feel there should be no room to assume that the student already knows it. I start from step 1. No subject is hard, a good insight with good guidance with creative teaching can always make learning a fun and fruitful experience.
