Pre-Calculus Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Hoyt, KS

While pursuing my Ph.D. in chemistry, I not only taught required general chemistry labs and lectures at the university I attended, I also tutored both college and high school students in various fields of math and science. I have over 7 years of tutoring experience at all levels of biology, chemistry, physics, and math. In addition to one-on-one tutoring, I tutor groups of 2-5 students. Teaching lectures of 60+ students at both SDSU and UCSD has prepared me to effectively deliver material to groups. By holding office hours, I was able to better interact with students individually, to better aid them in understanding the material. Both of these teaching environments have led me to become an effective tutor. I typically begin with the homework assigned by the students teacher, as theses are most often the questions that appear on the tests. Reviewing the practice tests, if available,

It has been a while since i have tutored the class but i still remember how to do most of this I have been a high school teacher for the last 6 years. I have recieved high scores 5 years in a row for the End of the year testing that each school must do. I have learned how to teach students that learn in a variety of different ways. I know that the best way for a student to learn is by which teaching methods best fit them. Teaching style varies depending on how the student learns best.

I have been driven my entire life to assist others. I started working in the health care industry as a CNA, 1979. I then went to college and obtained my social work degrees. I worked in various settings to include nursing homes, mental health centers, prisons, adolescent group homes and currently home health care, 1987 to 2009. I am currently pursing additional nursing education, so I can combine my knowledge in the social work arena with nursing. Throughout my work history, I was responsible for educational components, with staff, families and communities. I also worked as an outreach instructor for a community college, teaching classes such as psychology to criminal justice. I love working with people and seeing them succeed. I tend to meet the person at the level where they are at, then adapt the lessons to their learning style. I am very creative and strive to make learning f

I taught many different classes of Mathematics, some were individualized. I am patient, have a good sense of humor, and try to be kind to all people I work with and teach academic material to. I try to teach Mathematics in the best way for each student to learn the most from the instruction. I have taught General Math in Junior High, Algebra and Geometry in Junior High and High School, Introduction to Mathematics, and three different Algebra courses in Junior College. I have learned a lot of techniques in teaching. I am currently teaching twenty hours a week to adults in High School Science, some Electives, and in Mathematics.

I have tutored Algebra through Calculus I and Elementary Statistics for the last three years. 1.5 years at both Wichita State University and Washburn University. I'm currently working on a second Bachelors degree in mathematics, but this time with an emphasis in Actuarial Science. This mixes calculus, algebra, and statistics, along with some business classes, into one, keeping them fresh in my mind. I like starting with the given information and stepping through the processes to solve a problem. Reminding them of, or even showing them, the rules, properties, and examples in the book. I normally try to find the method that best works with each pupil, then highlight on that. I also make sure not to do the work for the student. I will sometimes come up with a similar problem to work through so they can see what's really going on within the problem.

I had 7 semesters teaching experience such as Physical chemistry(2 semester, UW-Madison;2 semester,Jilin University), General Chemistry(2 semesters, UW-Madison) and Succeed business in Excel(1 semester, Wisconsin School of Business). I really enjoy teaching kinds. I like to demonstrate and explain to my students with some simple examples which can be visualized from the world. The reason I love teaching is because of I can communicate with my students and inspire them to think the idea behind the knowledge they have learned. I love teaching since I love kinds and feel excited when I work with energetic kinds.

I am a higher education professional who has come to believe that the best way to impact students is to return to teaching. I have a long-standing interest in the philosophy of teaching. I am particularly impressed by "deep learning," a movement that emphasizes critical thinking and inquiry at all levels of teaching. I also believe in high expectations combined with a strong support system, and a common sense approach to the subject matter. I have come to believe that much "teaching" is nothing more than giving students the illusion that they have learned something; this is evidenced by the "cram and regurgitate" approach often taken by students. In my view, this approach is not true teaching or true learning. I have a PhD with a major in psychology and a minor in cell biology. I have taught college courses ranging from developmental math to graduate neuroscience. One of my research

I have always been a student who enjoys math and science. At a young age I participated in math competitions and clubs. As I became older I transferred that youthful facility towards my college coursework. Learning mathematics and science through physics gave me a rigorous understanding of mathematics and science, subjects that can sometimes be confusing to students. In recent years I have been a very vocal enthusiast of math and physics, always seeking new demonstrations to share my enthusiasm and knowledge. I believe that a genuine interest makes the strongest foundation for education. Creativity and a sense of serious play clan create interest in "boring" subjects. A handful of wonderful marbles will draw the attention of children and adults with simple beauty and color. They can also be used to demonstrate important lessons in physics and probability. In fact, math and science exist

I believe the best style, especially for tutoring, is to practice a lot. However, what make my teaching style successful is that when a student of mine does not succeed I can go through step by step and explain where he or she went wrong. Then we try again. I also like to offer plenty of examples and try to relate the problems to something that is easier to understand. This teaching style has been very successful with students in the past. Frequently I have been thanked for finally making the material understandable and not making the student feel stupid for not getting it right away. Throughout my undergraduate career I have worked as a tutor for different levels of education. First, I tutored a College Algebra class, then I tutored 23 different first year students in a writing class, then I tutored at a middle school in a variety of subjects. All of this experience has taught m

I have earned a BS in chemistry and an MBA, giving me extensive knowledge in Mathematics, Chemistry, and Business. While still in college for my BS, I offered tutoring services for Chemistry and Mathematics. Over the last 7 years working in the chemical manufacturing industry, I have served as a mentor to entry-level chemists and quality technicians. I enjoy presenting different viewpoints to my students in an attempt to help them develop a deeper understanding of the What, How, and Why of their studies. I am very patient and will work closely with your student to develop a learning plan that best fits their needs. Given appropriate 1-on-1 attention and direction beyond what is generally taught in the classroom, any child can meet their learning goals.

I participated in ROTC and majored in Math and Physics at the University of Colorado. After college, I joined the Air Force and worked in the airfield operations career field. After two years, I was chosen to become an instructor, where I fell in love with teaching. After separating from the military, I substitute taught for a year, primarily focusing on high school math. In 2007, I moved to Las Vegas, and I worked for a Tutoring Club. I taught math and my students ranged in age from 8 years through adult. I love teaching and working with students of all ages. I particularly enjoy watching a student's eyes light up after catching on to something new. I know all students learn in different ways, but I believe most people learn best when they are relaxed and enjoying themselves. I also believe it is important, especially for math, tasks be completed multiple times for the ideas to

I have always picked things up quickly, more quickly than my peers. My peers have often come to me to ask for my help in those areas. I also see how to apply what I have learned to original problems because I see connections and hold a deeper understanding of the material. My double major in Chemistry and Biochemistry with a mino in Mathematics was full of its fair share of difficult material, and I was almost always able to help my peers, as well as younger students, through their problems. I can usually find a way to relate the material that the student is struggling with to something else that they understand. When they can make connections to more familiar things, then they can think themselves through problems more effectively. I usually achieve this by showing them how to do a problem, doing a problem or two with them, and then having them do problems on their own, only assisting w
