I am a full-time college student. My strengths are math and science. During my first year of college, I took five math classes and received an "A" in all of them. Based on my ACT scores, I began college in Calculus I. Upon enrollment at UNLV, my goal was to become a forensic pathologist, but my interests have steered towards business. I am now pursuing a triple major in Marketing, International Business, and Secondary Education along with minors in Accounting, Finance, and International Language. I feel confident in tutoring all levels of math, from basic skills to college peers. I believe as a tutor one should be open-minded and able to relate to their students. I possess this quality. I have a history of making and maintaining a strong connection with my students. I believe that if I show interest in their life as well as their studies they become more comfortable with me, therefore

Youngsters come in all different shapes and sizes, as well as different brain patterns. Being able to communicate and level with children is imperative in a teaching environment. My teaching style would be one of which that is goal-oriented, organized, and clear. An open-feedback forum is also something that I also believe in. It's important that parents, as well as the student, can communicate with me on what does and does not work as far as teaching strategies are concerned. I am very open-minded, honest, and positive. It puts a smile on my face to watch people succeed, especially if I was able to be a part of it. My four-year venture throughout college has opened my eyes to the world around us more than I could have expected. It has allowed me to become a more efficient communicator with various types of people. I have been involved with children on several occasions throughout my lif

The overall health, well-being and enlightenment of children and their families has been a passion of mine for over 15 years. As a Holistic Health Care Facilitator I understand that it is not just my job to educate children, but it is just as important to educate their parents. For instance, when the entire family has a better understanding of how the body functions more efficiently with the proper sleep and nutrition, then I have completed my educational goals. As an Phi Thea Kappa and Who's Who Among Student's in American Unversities and Colleges honoree, I understand the importance of academic excellence. In fact, during the past 20 years I have taught children on various levels for examlpe, creative movement dance class, reading, writing and science. In addition, I am trained to work with children with special needs such as trichotillomania, obessive compulsive disorder, attentio

My teaching style is somewhat relaxed so that I can encourage my students to open up. When I first begin tutoring someone I let them do things their way rather than tell them how to do something. Then, I tell them that if their method isn't working, we will try it my way. In addition to teaching them the material, I try to pass off good studying habits as well. For example, rather than help a student write a paper by simply editing their paper, I try to show the student how helpful brainstorming is, and/or how to create an efficient, simple outline. I also try to find at least one thing a student is good at and encourage him in that area. Once a student realizes he is good at something, he feels more confident in other areas as well. I started tutoring in NYC when I was a junior in high school. I tutored a sixth grader and an eighth grader, and helped them with all of their homewo

I have had a variety of experiences in education from middle school through high school. I primarily have taught high school biology and aquatic science; however, through all my years as an educator, I have been heavily involved in tutoring reading and math. I spent three years as a special education teacher's aide, working directly with all levels of mainstreamed special ed students in a variety of classroom settings. Recently, I worked in a Communities-In-Schools fifth grade after-school tutoring program in math, reading and science. I get along well with all types of students and feel that building a good rapport is the key to successful tutoring. As a high school drop-out, who later achieved a college degree, I have the ability to connect with students who often struggle in a mainstream classroom setting. I have experience dealing with students of all ages. I am a firm believer

I am a enthusiastic 21 year old in a 51 year old body. I am able to reach students of all ages and to find out what they require to learn. I am well rounded in most subjects, I play several instuments and sing. I am an excellent mechanic, plumber, household electrician, and carpenter. I am warm hearted and fun loving and I enjoy working and being energized by the youthful spirit. I have been teaching music for over 30 years but found out 5 years ago I have a great deal to offer as an academic tutor. My first belief is that you have to make a student believe in themselve. You do this by letting them know that the system has failed them, but together we can bridge the gap of what you need now to get your grades caught up and work backwards to learn what you have missed. I driven to find innovative ways to make them learn, like using coins and other objects like liquid containers. Making jo

I have a very broad education. Before entering UCI, I attended Cerritos College in Norwalk, CA. There I took many hours of classes in the humanities as well as two years of calculus and differential equations. Thus I have wide ranging experience in writing/critiquing and preparing lab reports, grant proposals, and scientific journal articles. I have also helped pre-med students prepare various letters and documents for applying to medical schools. I have always greatly enjoyed my own educational experience. That has always helped fuel my passion for assisting others in their educations. Though I enjoy working with children, much of my tutoring experiences has been at the college level. I also learned how to present almost any subject in several different ways, in order to be most effective in my tutoring.

Even before I graduated from NDNU with my teaching credential in English and social studies, I have tutored for several years in almost every subject. I have come to understand that each individual has his/her own unique way of learning. The way I teach is very simple. I explain my teaching style using the analogy of a mother bird teaching her baby how to fly. The mother guides her baby, teaching it, showing it the ropes of life, and when it comes time, the baby flies off on its own with no help. This is quite similar to how I teach and tutor children. I guide them through lesson plans and homework with a helping hand, and when it comes time for them to "fly," I let them go and hopefully they will understand the concept and be able to work individually. When this happens, it is truly an inspiring moment, to be there and watch children grow.

I believe repetition is key to a person's learning and development. It gives me great satisfaction to help someone accomplish their goals. I have always had good math skills. Throughout high school and college I have taken plenty of courses in accelerated alegebra, geometry, trigonometry, and calculus, etc. I earned an economics degree with a statistics and math minor at Northwestern University.
