I am a fan of the Socratic method of teaching, where students are led to an understanding of the material through a series of questions designed to help them think their own way to the answer.
I have significant experience teaching and tutoring over the past 15 years, from the time I began college and was a lab assistant during chemistry labs, through supporting myself through college by tutoring, and finally teaching numerous college and university courses over the last 10 years. I am able to express myself and the concepts being taught very well, and students seem to enjoy my style and enthusiasm. Science and mathematics are the most incredible subjects ever created by humans, and the scientific method is the means by which humans remove or greatly reduce their biases, and thereby arrive at the truth of the underlying reality of the universe. I love to see students suddenly under ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am skilled in teaching all subjects up through grade 10. I am also comfortable with college level physics and astronomy. As a father of 6 kids I have extensive patience and I have learned through experience how to transfer learning to even unwilling students. Instructing in a Jet Fighter has also given me a wide range of experiences that are helpful in relating to all types of individuals, even young kids.
I am 54 and have homeschooled my own kids. My oldest is a commercial pilot and her brother is an engineer in Florida. The youngest is 11 so I have kept current in a wide range of subjects. I am current with my ability to teach, having completed three degrees within the last two years. I substitute teach at the Lead/Deadwood school. I have taught over 500 pilot students in high performance jet aircraft so I am well versed in math and science. This job also required extensive wri ... read more

In college I excelled in my education by helping other students learn the material from class that they did not understand. I have earned one bachelor degree in Biomedical Science. This education has helped me gain tremendous skills in math, biology, chemistry, and reading. I have wrote many laboratory reports, research papers, and english papers that have helped me improve my grammatical skills. During my last two years in college I have helped tutor students in math, biology, and a little bit of basic chemistry.
I am open to helping any student, old or young, gain more knowledge. I am very open to teaching anybody who is willing to give the effort to learn the material. I am a very patient, outgoing, and reliable individual. I am a believer in finding anyway to help a student learn the material. Sometimes it takes a different approach with every student. Every student does not le ... read more

I currently work with special education students at a local school. I also work at an after school program to ensure educational activites during the after school hours. I Earned a double major from BHSU in 2008 for Sociology and Human Services with an empahsis in probation and Law enforcement.
I enjoy working with kids of all a ages and skill levels! My passion is working with kids who are special education, or those who need more one on one time. Math was always a struggle for me so I enjoy working with kids who need extra support with math/algebra. I believe each child learns in their own way and it's extremely important to find their learning style and build from it. Each child has the ability to learn we just have to see things through their eyes in order to educate them!

I am a former professional astronomer with experience working for NASA and the Department of the Navy.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have always loved teaching, whether its adults or children. Everyone has their own learning style and teachers need to be able to adapt teaching methods to help all succeed. My personality is very driven, outgoing, yet very patient and understanding. My goal when presenting curriculum based school programs is that the students all leave with at least one idea that they will remember and share with others.
Prior to changing my undergraduate major to Geography, I was an elementary education major. I have always enjoyed working with students; however, at the time I wanted to try something different and is how I ended up working as a Park Ranger for the National Park Service (NPS). My experiences with NPS have allowed me to teach in an informal setting, by educating the public about their national parks. I also have the opportunity to present curriculum based education programs ... read more

I love working and teaching children. I believe that all children can achieve what they set their minds to. All children have different learning styles and I am here to find which learning style best suites each child and work individually with that child so they can seek success. As part of my work and volunteer experiences I have tried many different teaching styles and have had much success with reaching each student. I believe that with guidance students will succeed in their highest potential and I can make a difference in each students life.
As a recent college graduate and now a graduate student, I have always had a passion of working with children. I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Environmental Education and spent numerous hours and days with children both in the classroom and outside the classroom teaching about the environment, science, and reading. I have worked wi ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy working one on one with students, and will adapt my teaching style to how the student learns and to what he/she finds interesting. My goal as a tutor is to assist others in increasing their knowledge, to develop learning skills and make it an enjoyable process. I listen intently to what each student needs, and focus on meeting specified goals. Each person has the capacity to learn, and by using the strengths and commitment of the student, I will do my best to help the student achieve his/her academic goals.
My education focuses on geology, the environmental sciences and includes the arts. One of my main interests is encouraging students to explore the wonderful possibilities available in the many existing scientific fields.
