More About This Tutor...

I like to understand where the students are coming from, and see if I can make the topic more understandable. My thought is to make the student understand the topic, not just get by.
I have been teaching for six years at the Southwest Colorado Community College. I have taught basic mathematics to algebra III. (Math 121) I also have done quite a bit of tutoring with those in my class, and those not in my class (statistics and calculus). I have taught for the gateway to college program. It is a program that helps high school drop outs get their high school diplomas, and get a start in college. I have taught online for Colorado Community Colleges Online until they no longer needed basic math teachers. I am experienced with latex,and graphical equation editors. I have a program that will produce mml code. I have tutored a few individuals. Some improved greatly (he had to t ... read more

I believe it is best to offer guidance, and allow the student to go through the process of discovery. Things learned independently are much more prized and valuable. Of course, one cannot let them flounder too long so that discouragement sets in. And it is best to find out what they like, and to work with that as much as possible.
While in New York, I worked for two years as a teacher of Science at a Junior High school in the Bronx. There I was awarded "Rookie-Teacher-of-the-Year." For one year, I also tutored after school to earn extra money. I have also taught in California and Santa Fe, NM. My passion is to be an International speaker on the topics of Metaphysics and Spirituality.

Driven towards excellence in education, I have earned a bachelor's degree in geography with an emphasis in computer information systems. The broadness of geography as a field has served as a basis for my knowledge and interests in math and science, as well as economics and business. I taught ESL in Korea to children ages 5-13, and I have experience learning a second language (German) in Düsseldorf, Germany. I have experience in a public school setting as a technology assistant and for the past three years I tutored in English, math, and information technology, serving students worldwide. Further I have 3 years experience as an Engineering Technician for local government.
I believe all students are capable of creativity and learning, and that education is a two-way process, where students and teachers collaborate to advance one another's understanding of the world. My style refl ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy working one on one with a wide variety of students - those with solid backgrounds in mathematics, as well as those who have had difficulties with mathematics their entire lives. In fact, I believe that one of the biggest reasons a child/teen/adult needs tutoring in mathematical sciences often stems from something missing in their early years of learning math. I can tutor any aged person. I enjoy getting the student to relate - what is often an uncomfortable subject for them - to the real world and to enhance their own personal future opportunities. I work hard to get the student to become self-reliant and to teach them that "just concentrating and doing it" is half of the battle. I have a lot of patience for those trying to do their best, even if math or statistics just isn't their "thing".
Having earned a Ph.D. in Biostatistics from one of the top statistics schools in the ... read more
