My comments on tutoring Physics : Both calculus-based and algebra-based physics.

When I was studying engineering at University of Michigan, I took a job as a tutor at Washtenaw Community College. This was the most rewarding job I ever had. Since about the year 2000, I have been working as a freelance tutor in the subjects of math, chemistry and physics. I also tutor students in engineering courses. I generally work with college students or upper-class high school students. Normally I work in the Brighton/Howell Michigan area. I meet most students at a public library or coffee shop. My average rate is $50 per hour. This can be negotiated, however. I like to take the students ability to pay into consideration and will charge less per hour if advanced payment can be arranged.
I like to work one on one with students in a neutral location. Small groups are not out of the question however.

More About This Tutor...

I am currently a senior earning my bachelors degree in biochemistry at the University of Michigan. I have enjoyed tutoring friends and classmates in many of my courses here in college. I was encouraged to apply to be an undergraduate instructor for biology. I was also offered a position to facilitate a university-sponsored discussion group for physics. Additionally I did some tutoring in high school. I enjoy helping students to understand and enjoy the material they are learning.

While an undergraduate at Michigan Technological University, I often helped fellow students with their physics or math homework. I also tutored a high school student in geometry for one semester while working for Study Point in Boston. I have extensive education and experience in Science, Engineering and Business.
I get along well with people of all ages, genders and ethnicities. I am very flexible in my teaching also. My goal is to improve their understanding of the subject matter through examples and working through problems.

Although a senior about 20 credits from my BS, I know I am qualified for this job. My passion for Chemistry rubs off on those around me. With a near 4.0 GPA, I always earn the top score in my class, only once did I get less than perfect on a Science test, a 99%. Students began asking for help. From my first Science course, I helped many students drastically improve their grades. Professors gave my name out to students and I have taught many each term. When my Prof. was going to miss class she asked me to teach instead. My lab reports were always perfect; the Prof. copied them for future classes. I earned the only student research grant. Researching a method to detect pathogen DNA; my work continues to be published.
I wanted to excite others as Chemistry had excited me. I teach the material and why it is so exciting. My style adapts to that specific student’s strengths, weaknes ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style could be labeled as Socratic in that I prefer to lead the student to discovering the answers to their own inquiries through a series of guided and redirected questions. Through my prior experience, I have observed that students tend to become overwhelmed by the subject material. By asking the student simple questions that require basic conceptual understanding, the student is able to build confidence and perspective as he draws nearer to a solution. Also, I prefer to emphasize the big picture, rather than the small details of a particular problem, so that the student may become an independent learner. I sincerely believe all knowledge is tangible as long as the learner is provided with the proper tools.
My affinity for knowledge inspired me to attain my degree in Physics with an emphasis in Education. Due to my own positive learning experiences, I have a strong ... read more

I went to school at EMU with the intention of getting a doctorate in Physics, to teach at the college level. I ended up getting a job in IT at the University, and found I enjoy this just as much. While a student, I volunteer tutored for the Society of Physics Students, and I tutor all the student employees I have when they are taking physics classes. I love teaching, and the students that I have tutored have excelled under my supervision.
I try my best to make the student figure things out on their own, by giving simple guiding questions or comments. I do not like to simply do the problems for them, as I find most people do not learn well this way. I am patient and empathetic, and I understand what it is like to approach a problem from the position of a student who is confused or unsure. I try to give them the tools to understand basic problem solving and critical thinking.

I have graduated with dual B.S. degrees in Education and Political Science in 1972 in Odessa, Ukraine. My teaching experience includes 28 years of teaching chemistry, physics, Russian and Ukrainian languages in my native country of Ukraine. During these years I’ve taught many students varying in age from 13 to 18 years old. I’ve taught classes of Continuing Education for certified teachers in Ukraine. As a reward I received a special qualification of: “Excellent teacher of Ukraine #28807."
Teaching is my passion. I strive to make my students feel the enthusiasm I have towards the subject. My teaching philosophy is to engage students in the study by making an abstract idea turn into something real that students might be truly interested in. I believe that students can overcome obstacles with positive reinforcement. I’d be there to help my students help themselves to become su ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I recently graduated from Denison University with a B.S. in Biochemistry. While at Denison I participated in several work-study jobs centered around direct interaction with other students. I worked as a TA in an Organic Chemistry lab as well as a General Physics Lab. Additionally I served as a tutor for both General Physics as well as General and Organic Chemistry. The Chemistry position was in a setting called "Chem Spa" where I could have several students seeking help with homework or upcoming test preparations. I have also worked as both a high school baseball coach and a swim instructor for all ages. My background in chemistry is very strong as is my background in biology.
I am very passionate about the role of being a teacher and mentor. I believe that when we stop learning we stop truly being alive. As a tutor it is my job not only to teach the student, but learn from the stu ... read more

My teaching style is participatory. I like to ask questions of the student and have them verbalize what they know. This gives me the opportunity to identify possible gaps in their knowledge and to fill in those gaps. I also try to relate covered material to historical events. For instance, when talking about the importance of analytical chemistry, I like to talk about the Marsh test which was developed in the 1830’s as a definitive reaction for arsenic poisoning. In like manner, I like to relate covered material to the personal experiences of the student. Illustrative examples that I have used are the importance of distillation to the alcoholic beverage and petroleum industries, along with how companies like McDonald’s would employ chemists skilled in flavors and fragrances (i.e., flavorists). All in all, I try to make science and mathematics fun and stimulating, as well as informati ... read more

I greatly enjoying teaching the subject of math. Given the opportunity, I would choose to follow and inquiry-based, constructivist approach. I believe that this type of learning is exceptionally beneficial in subjects, such as mathematics, which emphasize discovery.
I spent my four years of undergraduate education studying advanced mathematics. Since this time, I have been a substitute teacher for the last year and a tutor for the last nine months. Additionally, I have just completed the required courses to obtain an Alternative Educator's License in integrated mathematics.
