I have recently completed Calculus II and III courses with a 4.0 GPA. I have a Bachelors degree in Finance and love math and learning. I have a family of teachers and believe I could connect with a student and help promote their learning experience. I am highly aware of the value of mathematics and science in the job market now and in the future and would find the job of helping younger students grow in their abilities to be a rewarding experience. I have experience tutoring part -time in a University setting and know I am capable of explaining subject matter clearly.

I worked for Panther Academic Support Services at UW Milwaukee from Sept 2007 to May 2011. I tutored students individually and in group settings in math and science courses. I have worked with students from all academic backgrounds. I began tutoring algebra to incoming freshmen. I tutored calculus to business students and I tutored physics to students studying health science. I have found that it takes multiple ways of presenting a topic for students to have a expert grasp of the subject. I have a conversational teaching style. I emphasize the thought process that facilitates problem solving and conceptual understanding that lies behind all math and science subjects.

www.logicstudies.com We see education as a meeting of minds, where every participant is on the same level. While a tutor may well have more knowledge of a subject than the student, learning is a communicative and collaborative process; the transmission of ideas can only happen when we acknowledge we each have something to learn from one another. Part of what makes Logic Studies so successful and distinctive is that we refuse to fall into the prescribed teacher-student dynamic. Never condescending and demonstrating mutual respect, the tutors at Logic Studies treat their students as peers, or coequals .

I have six years of tutoring/teaching experience, helping students come to a well developed understanding of the subjects they struggle with. Part of this experience includes a year teaching English in a classroom setting in South Korea. Through these positions I worked with students from the ages of 6 to 22, with varying levels of expertise and learning styles. Due to this I have developed an ability to work successfully with a wide range of students. I am a patient teacher who works diligently to ensure the student's confidence and strength in the subject matter. I believe that there are many ways to approach a topic, and it is my duty to find the approach that allows the student to full understand. I worked to instill the skills the student's needs through thorough explanations, practice, and encouragement.

I like to start by encouraging the student to demonstrate what they know, and then give them a little nudge of guidance when they come to something that confuses them. If they're really stumped, then I try to teach them first from a conventional standpoint, then switch to a more example-based explanation. There is almost always an example or an analogy that can explain something that is confusing a student. Sometimes it takes a few examples before you find the one that makes sense to that person, but with a little patience it becomes easily understandable for the student. I received a BS in Computer Science, software engineering, and a minor in Mathematics. I worked for one year at the TLC, or Teaching Learning Center, where upper classmen would tutor other students taking courses they had already taken and done quite well in. I tutored mostly computer courses (programming, excel, e

I have always ended up in leadership positions which gives me the opportunity to teach. I generally supervise adults and in this role act as teacher for processes, procedures, rules and general good practices. I am a great learner, which I think makes for a great teacher because I want to be sure that whomever I am working with finds the excitement in really understanding a topic. Many of the people I work with tell me I should be a teacher. I do also have two children, girls, seven and five. They are of course much different than adults, much quicker and very capable of absorbing lots of material. I really like to teach but only topics I really believe in. I am not a good salesperson for the same reason, if I don't believe in something you can see right through me. I have seen too many adults and kids taught the steps to something, do "A" then do "B" then do "C". This is f

My teaching style focuses on teaching students how to find the big picture. If they understand what it is they are trying to do, then showing them how to get there becomes easier. Any student can learn math, and have the capability to understand numbers, this just comes harder for some and easier for others. In my past I have benefited greatly from some math teachers, and fallen behind in classes where I was not getting what the teacher was talking about. Tutors can be a great help in pushing students over a difficult concept or idea. Then, when the student is back on track, they can take their education in their own hands again. During the last four years, I have spent a large amount of time working with, and around middle school and High school students. I have spent time in the classroom, worked with small groups, and spent one summer working with multiple summer camps up and down the

I have got my PhD degree (Chemistry) from Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur, India, which is one of the best institutes across the globe. During my MS program I had extensive courses in all branches of Chemistry and had Math and Physics as subsidiaries in the BS program. Qualified many competitive exams, GRE,TOEFL, PRAXIS etc.Had five years of experience in teaching undergraduate students. Have very good writting and lecture skills. Had helped many students during school and college days, who needed special assistance in Science and Math. Each child is a unique individual who needs a stimulating, secure, and, caring atmosphere to grow and mature.The enthusiasm of a motivated teacher energize the students. I encourage independent thinking and analytical reasoning to augment their problem solving skills, thus encouraging them to not just memorize. My first academic teaching experience

I received my Bachelors of Arts degree from Willamette University, where I majored in politics and minored in economics. I chose to work for a Bachelor's of Arts degree because it stresses a strong understanding of all subjects - this is the core of my approach to learning and education. During my senior year of high school I tutored math and science at a middle school for one year, and prior to this spent several years babysitting and assisting elementary school-aged children with their studies. Though my experience is limited to tutoring, it came easily to me and I am confident that I can help others better understand what I have already learned. As a student that has earned consistently high marks and test scores, I am in a great position to do this. In my own experience, the key to learning has been to find a "critical link:" that is, to figure out an angle that makes sense to my bra

Having graduated from a liberal arts university, I know that being well-rounded is very important in life. I graduated from Whitworth with a BS in Math and minors in Spanish and Computer Science, so I know what it is like to learn complex subjects. I have tutored my peers along with students younger and older than myself, as a mathematician and a Spanish speaker. I led a Spanish Live Lab for two years and informally tutored math for four. Also, I have a great deal of grammatical knowledge from writing research papers in math and computer science and Spanish. I love teaching and relating to people. I know from personal experience that one good teacher can change the way a student views an entire subject. I am easy-going, friendly, and patient. I believe that all students have great potential and should be given every opportunity to fulfill it.

I started out as a student tutor in the early 90's in California. I finished my MA in mathematics in 2000 at Cal State Sacramento. I have been teaching the past 10 years (including as a grad student) and have experience with all levels of high school and college level mathematics and statistics, including College Math, Algebra, Trigonometry, Calculus, Elementary Statistics, Pre-algebra and Arithmetic. I currently teach at Arizona State University and Chandler-Gilbert Community Colleges as an adjunct math instructor. I have always found that one-on-one teaching is my forte. Even when I teach a class of 40 students, I find ways for them to work collaboratively, and so that I can also work with the ones that need the most help. I have been tutoring and teaching for 16 years, and I know all the tricks to being a good tutor, such as explaining a concept in as many possible ways in order to ge

I like working with children. I also enjoyed observing the wide variety of ways the human mind processes numbers and the mathematical process. My mathematical teaching technique is to patiently observe how a student works and adjust my style accordingly. Even though mathematics comes off to many people as a rigid discipline. A thousand ways exist to teach and illustrate the same concept. I have a B.S. in Computer Science. I also have 3 years as a substitute teacher as well as 3 in the semiconductor field. I come form a family of educators (mother, uncle, great aunt). I college, I tutored many of my friends in higher mathematics (one of which attained a PhD in Electrical Engineering recently). I also recently did some volunteer work in Michigan tutoring Somalian refugees in Mathematics.
