Computer Programming Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Mayer, AZ

In high school I was able to tutor students in all subjects ranging from English to Math to Musical Studies. Furthering my education at Trinity University in San Antonio, TX really opened my eyes and mind to wider ranges of educational foundations. As a double major in Communication and Classical Studies, I was able to get a well rounded education in all subjects. I feel that I am also skilled in math and got a minor in Art History. I have always enjoyed tutoring students and seeing them "get" the subjects we are touching on. I have always enjoyed tutoring students and seeing them "get" the subjects we are touching on. The look on their face during this moment is priceless. I fully understand that everyone learns things in different ways. While one student may be able to memorize and understand facts one way, say by repetition, another student may learn the information by understanding t

First, and foremost, I believe that effective learning is both fun and relevant. I have always been able to make a game of it and to make it both interesting and challenging to others. My goal is never to teach them a rote solution, but to challenge them to think about the concepts and have then tell me the answers. This builds their confidence and solidifies their learning experience. I find that if they understand how a concept was derived in the first place, they seldom forget that story and therefore have learned something that will stay with them for a live time. I prefer to use the Socratic Method and draw the information from my students. Again, I think it is best if they THINK rather than learn. Over time I see all my students (and all our five daughters) have responded well to this approach. As an engineering student, I scored A's in 4 Quarters of Calculus, 3 Quarters o

I like instructing using the latest visual tools. I like to make math alive, taking the abstractness of calculus and transforming it into something that is visual. I enjoy working with gifted middle school or high school age students. As a graduate of F.A.U, I was very much driven to learn programming and prograaming languages, applying Mathematics and Algorithms to real time problems. During my 30 years as a consultant I taught several classes related to game theory and applied Calculus. I am current a member of Toastmasters international and enjoy public speaking as well as instructing and mentoring other club members. I've lived in Prescott since 1994 and enjoy any opportunity to help and serve the community.

I love teaching and working with children of all ages. I believe in encouraging children to discover what they are to learn instead of rote learning for most things, and I also believe in establishing automaticity for some tasks, such as math facts and geometry theorems. I believe that all children are capable of learning with the right approach. It is important to persist in teaching a concept from different angles until the child "gets it." A good educator can make a world of difference to a child. I am a strong proponent of reinforcing a child's strengths through positive encouragement and exhibiting an enthusiasm for the subject at hand to foster interest on the part of the student. I have a degree in Math and I am currently 3/4 complete for a Masters in Elem. Education w/Certif. I have been a substitute teacher for 2 years, w/1 long term sub teaching position of 3 mos at the elem

My career is a successful and meaningful one for every student I have taught. I received my Masters and Doctorate degrees will teaching and coaching. Many of my students have gone on to become doctors and lawyers as well as TEACHERS! I have always exceled at reaching students in anyway possible to have success. I have earned many teaching awards and enjoy working with kids on all levels of mathematics. I have many teaching styles in order to reach every student in my classes. My doctorate dissertation focused on learning styles and I have a plethora of ways to help a student reach his/her potentional. Students need a teacher who can provide stability in the classroom and is flexible on learning strategies. I am able to teach a concept and tell if students have understood. If not, change gears and try another method until I can see success.

I have taught every Secondary Math subject from Algebra I thru Pre-Calculus. I am being retained by Mesa Public Schools to again teach Geometry I & II in a focus school. I have served as an Adjunct at ITT-Tech in Tempe, teaching College level Math, Construction Management, and Information Technology. I am certified in Secondary, endorsed in Mathematics. This week I began the 10 day process of becoming certified in Career and Technical Education (CTE) , endorsed in Industrial Technology(IT). I have recently taken HTML and Java 1 programming Language Courses. I took the lead in building my Schools’ web site, helping both my principal and colleagues after completing my own site. http://www2.mpsaz.org/superstition/staff/fjginett/ .
