Pre-Calculus Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Marlette, MI

I began tutoring privately,as well as,for my school's learning center during the early 1990's. I have continued tutoring privately on and off for the past twenty years. I was a substitute teacher in California and Michigan during the 2000's. I also had my own high school level classroom in California for two school years. I was hired on an "Emergency Credential" because I had my BS but no teaching credential. I was laid off due to budget cuts in June of 2003. I also taught "at-risk" elementary age children during the summer for the Glendora Unifed School District in Glendora, CA. I tutored privately for three years from 2005-2008 in south Los Angeles County and north Orange County, CA. I can provide recommendations from these clients if you are interested. My youngest students were in first grade with my oldest students attending college.

I love helping students understand concepts that might be confusing at first. I try to help them understand the big picture and then help them work through more detailed questions. I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Chemical Engineering and Bioengineering from MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology). I also have a minor in Biology and Psychology. I have tutored several students during my studies, specifically in the sciences and math. I also have excelled in my English and writing classes throughout high school and college.

When teaching, I not only want my students to be able to use basic formulas, but have a thorough understanding as well. I am very logical and exact in my thinking process. Since I am not good at reading minds, communication is very important. Let me know if you understand a topic or explanation. There are often a number of approaches to solving a problem which can be tried. I am a graduate of Michigan State University and achieved a AS in applied mathematics, along with a BS in both computer science and mathematics. I was a teaching assistant at the university for three years, and assisted in the Learning center for a few more. I taught a few classes at Davenport University in Caro as well. I have tutored several math students before, and have given piano lessons to a number of students as well.

I have taught community college level math courses at 3 colleges. I have also tutored high school students, college freshman and adults. Topics ranged from pre-algebra to first semester calculus. I first try to address any fear of math the student may have. I explain concepts using visual and verbal methods. After explaining a concept and showing the student an example(s), I have them work problems themselves.

I love people's capacity for learning. It gives me joy to know that I have helped another learn something new. I am patient, relaxed, and try to keep tutoring interesting for the recipient. It's important that the tutoree is engaged and enjoys grasping new lessons. I like to guide students into understanding the problem rather than just merely giving them the answer. In 2006 I graduated from the University of Michigan with a BS in Engineering Science. It gave me an understanding in a broad range of mathematical areas as well as areas of other sciences. During that time I worked with volunteer organizations like Salem Housing and Habitat for humanity for three years, which enabled me to mentor a variety of ages. In the last year I've worked with a homeschooling group on a project called, "Leaping Lizards."

I am firm believer that education is the key to success no matter what the person wants to do with their life. I try my best to make the learning experience fun and fruitful for students so that the material is easier to understand. All students have the ability to be great with the right amount of guidance which is where I come in. It is one thing for me to help a student understand the material at hand, but I also want to make a difference in their lives so that they get into the real world and succeed. I am a recent college graduate with a BA in Finance. I was highly driven during my college years and was able to graduate earlier than my peers. I am highly proficient in math, grammatical skills, and various computer applications. During my process of achieving a higher eduaction, I tutorted and mentored students in English, Math, and Arts, while advising on life lessons and how

I gained a B.S. degree from Western Michigan University in Math and Physics in April of 07’, and went back to school completing a teacher certification program in April of 09’ at Western Governors University. I currently have EX certification (Secondary Ed. Math) and anticipated DE (Secondary Ed. Physical Science, Physics) certification after this fall. I have experience teaching Applied/Regular Algebra I, Applied/Regular Geometry, Pre-Calc, Trig. Based Physics, ACT prep, College Level Physics, and Physical Science.

I believe it is important to connect the past learning experiences of each student, and spark interest, and motivation in future learning of the subject. I believe the differences in the discovery process in each individual arouses creativity in the way problems are reasoned through which
