Ph.D. in Mechanical Enginering and A Great Communicator -

Specific teaching experience at the collegiate level in undergraduate thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and heat transfer. Teaching awards given for all university experience ranking me within the top 5% of university professors. Doctoral work in the field of combustion and thus extensive knowledge of chemistry, quantum mechanics, advanced mathematics, etc. Willing to work one-on-one or with small groups or online. Preference to continued learned and tutoring rather than last minute cram sessions. I am very flexible in terms of timing and location. Willing to meet with parents prior to initiating any tutoring session to cover my background, validate background (transcripts, etc can be easily obtained), ensure safety, etc.
I am demanding but understanding. I know what it takes to succeed in college and beyond. I am unlike almost any university professor in that I am a great c ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have taught in many different formats in both mathematics and physics. At Purdue University, I ran a physics laboratory class as well as did tutoring in a help center for physics. Afterwords I have also taught for ITT Tech where I taught an online physics course; IvyTech where I am currently teaching an algebra course; and the princeton review where I am teaching Physics for MCAT Students. Finally, I have done some at home tutoring for individuals in mathematics.
I enjoy the process of teaching itself. I find it a very rewarding experience to introduce others to a new and somewhat unusual way of looking at things when I teach about physics or mathematics. In many ways both can be confusing and to many seem counter-intuitive. This challenge makes it satisfying when students begin to understand the concepts and see them confirmed by real life. By directing students and using ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Having always been driven to achieve academic success, I received all A's throughout middle school and high school and was one of my high school valedvictorians. I then received full tuition to the University of Evansville and continued my academic success. My major required my to put in hours before and after the athletic teams practices and I have learned great time management skills as well as study skills. I tested out of all collegiate english, writing, and mathematics requirements. I have a natural ability to do well in math and science areas and enjoy writing.
I have always loved school and find that I miss it at times. Because of that I jump at the chance to help those who need it. I college I helped other students who had math and physics classes. I have learned the skills that I needed to both learn and remember and have helped others to do so also. My best friend ... read more

I can teach any age since I have experience with almost with age group of 5 yr to 30 yr. and I love my job
Since I was in high school I have been teaching my sisters to get their way around with Science/Math/English. I realized my understanding more towards this subjects as I went teaching Students through out my Under graduation. I got admitted in Rochester Institute of Technology, NY as masters student along with teaching assistance. I was thrilled by my experience to teach undergraduate Students and got very good recommendation from students. I plan to continue in same profession for sometime.

More About This Tutor...

I have always had an interest in helping others learn new material. I have earned a BS and MS in Physics, and in the process of doing this I also did extensive coursework in Mathematics. My education has given me a thorough understanding of these two subjects. At Georgia Tech, I worked as a teaching assistant in Mathematics, teaching recitation sections and holding office hours in which students were given individual attention. Part of my duties as a TA were to work in the school's Math Lab, providing tutoring to students in Mathematics. Prior to becoming a TA, I worked as a Physics tutor on campus. At Michigan State, I was primarily involved in research activities in the field of Nuclear Physics, and a large portion of this job involved teaching others about the technical details of and the physical principles behind the work being done. This work further developed my abilities as a ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I tutored all through college. I have tutored one-on-one and small groups, and I have also been a TA and taught a few class periods. In addition i tutored a student in High School in several subjects. Most of my experience tutoring has been in math, physics and engineering, but I am also fluent in Spanish.
My teaching style is helping the student arrive at the correct solution. In problem based courses this is usually done through asking the student what they think the next step should be and guiding them through the process of problem solving. Once they start to understand problem solving then they do not only improve in the course that I am tutoring them in but in their other courses as well. In a nutshell I try to help students learn how to learn.

I have been a community college adjunct professor for the past 5 years, teaching physics and physical science. I have also tutored in the College Learning Center where I have helped students individually and in small groups in the subjects of physics, astronomy, chemistry and math. I have a BS in Astronomy and am also a graduate of Purdue University with a Master's degree in Civil/Environmental Engineering.
I believe that good teachers must truly like their subjects and also must care about whether or not their students really understand the material. They must find ways to motivate their students to learn and cultivate an interested in the subject. Students usually come to me very anxious and nervous about their physics, chemistry and math classes and I enjoy helping them overcome their anxiety and frustration about these difficult subjects. My goal is not to give answers, but ... read more

As a Purdue University grad, I have firm foundation in the following subjects: Calculus (I, II, & III), General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physical Chemistry, Chemical Engineering--(Heat/Mass, Fluids, etc.), Physics (Mechanics and Electricity/Magnetism), Differential Equations, and Linear Algebra. I also completed a minor in Spanish and am able to read, write, and speak the language fluently. Likewise, I took both Anatomy & Physiology courses (along with Intro Bio). I have tutored students in all of the subjects mentioned above for Purdue student athletes and other students.
I have a passion for teaching. I TA'd an intro to Bio course and have experience tutoring many students for well over seven years. I am still a student myself, so I understand the value of tutoring. I am a life-long learner, and I always strive to provide the student I am tutoring (both and young and o ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Every child wants to learn, although a more creative design may be needed to find a child's greatest potential. Patience, consideration, and encouraging words are simple tasks to help the self esteem of children in a child's education.
With a degree from Purdue University and continuing on to get a degree in engineering, I am engaged in many areas of science and math. Even at a young age I taught my younger sister basic mathematical and reading skills even before she entered kindergarten; we called it "school". The youngest, my brother, in which we are both diagnosed with ADHD, is amazing. I quickly learned to be patient with him when helping with his homework because I can see the same frustration on his face I had at his age when trying to concentrate on a difficult task.

More About This Tutor...

As a college graduate from a private, liberal arts institution, I was very much driven to achieve high levels of excellence in many areas of the world of education. I have earned a Bachelors degree in finance, which has enabled me to have a great understanding of many areas of math and business. By taking a diverse course schedule in many areas, including a focus on grammatical, historical, psychological and ethical areas has led me to develop a vast array of knowledge. Along with tutoring, I have coached youth sports in the area for the past five years.
I love teaching and working with all children. I believe that all children can learn, but each in their own unique way. My life has been based on a respect for people of all ages and abilities. Based on this, I believe that teacher and student in any situation can stand to respect and learn from each other in different ways. I bel ... read more
