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

My teaching style is progressive. I believe education should be entertaining, however not entertainment. I enjoy challenging my students, however to do this effectively it is important that they remain engaged. One of the ways in which I do this is to encourage students to think creatively. Creativity is the key to success with education. Not only does it foster confidence and positive self-esteem, creativity keeps the brain on its toes, so to speak, by continually challenging students’ abilities and forcing students to expand beyond their academic comfort zone. Teaching students to develop new ways to solve problems generates the confidence needed to succeed not only in school but also in life. My interest in becoming a tutor stems from my life long passion for teaching and learning. Throughout the past eight years, I have focused my efforts on soaking up my education and research exper

I believe that the level of education of the children will determine the future of its nation and I would like to be a part of making it a successful one even if it takes one child at a time. Education does not only lead to success but allows the mind and life to expand its horizons. My passion is helping others. Although my degree is Mathematics, my experiences are spread across different fields. I am a singer, dancer, actress, athlete, events/wedding coordinator, church/youth coordinator, and have volunteered for several charity events. During the past 12 years I have worked for AAA Admin to Analyst. I have tutored students in Math (to early college level) and Vocals.

As a student I was an honors student who maintained an "A" average in high school, college, and in my masters program. Before earning a BS in Psychology, I completed two years as an Elementary Education major. Although I decided to focus my career as a therapist, I have utilized this education by becoming both a substitute teacher and tutor. My education has allowed me to hone my language,literature, mathematical, research and study skills. I have tutored various students in mathematics, statistics, social studies, English, and reading and comprehension. I believe that all children have the ability to succeed. The key is to allow a child to feel empowered to have mastery over the material. Often time teachers explain new material in only one way. As a tutor I strive to find your child's learning style to help them understand the material, and learn good study habits early. I am patient a

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.

It is my philosophy that an effective tutor not only tutors but also inspires. I am patient and very intuitive. If I sense that a student is trying to mask a weakness in a particular area, I will make every effort to reinforce the concept or idea. I make it a point to identify and strengthen weak areas. I will make every effort to ensure that the student meets his or her goal. The only requirement of the student is a willingess to succeed. I graduated from The Honors College at the University of South Florida with a Bachelor of Science degree in chemical engineering (BSChE). The rigor of the engineering curriculum coupled with strong liberal arts and research experiences of The Honors College has provided me with both the technical skills and knowledge to effectively tutor, engage and inspire students. In addition, I have exercised my grammatical and writing skills as the news editor fo

I was General Chemistry Drill Instructor during my undergraduate studies. I was teaching assistant when I was in graduate school at New Mexico State University. I also tutor one or two semsters of General Chemistry. Since 2003, I've been teaching Intro. to Chemistry and all labs up to Organic Chemistry at College of Southern Nevada. I also taught one semester of Instrumental Method of Analysis at the University of Nevada-Las Vegas. I enjoyed teaching students who wants to learn and better themselves. My approach to teaching is that students need to try to do things themselves and ask questions in there problem areas. I do not like to spoon feed all the information to them. I also want them to feel that they recieved there money's worth of education.

My professional experience and educational experience have been intertwined for many years. As a laboratory technician, I not only learned how important accuracy and precision are when performing analyses, but I also learned how truly interesting science could be. That intrigue led me to supplementing my chemistry education with biological courses and changing my professional path to pharmaceutical research. Inherent in research, are aspects of imagination and novelty. Although oral and written communication skills are important in science, I am increasingly improving my communication skills as a substitute teacher and as a law school student. I love children and I love being able to share my love of learning with them. Children want to learn and there is nothing better than seeing a child’s face light up when they “get it.” Even though I have science degrees, I have never found m

After obtained my MA degree,I employed as researcher /Lecturer in Ethiopian Civil Service College.This opportunity gave me the best exposure to develop my skills in data collection and analysis in the practical world. As first joining researcher, I was given several chances to participate in training, seminars and workshops regarding data collection, analysis and reporting. This increased my natural ability in understanding mathmatics. I usually enjoy teaching.I believe in sharing knowledge especially techniques of making long and cumbersome mathmatical equations simple and short. Making the contents of the things more transparent and understandable- making the logic behind the subject matter more clear and precise. This is my way of tutoring.

I have an ability to communicate the complex theories in everyday language that makes me a very effective tutor. It is great when someone starts to understand the theory of their subject and then continue to more complicated things. The key to tutoring is to understand the frustration and embarrassment someone feels when they do not understand something and overcome this with a friendly, straight-forward approach. I started tutoring thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and statics in college. My BS in mechanical engineering has required me to get a firm understanding of calculus and physics - two traditionally very difficult subjects.
