My comments on tutoring ACT : Specifically can help with math but I like to have the student take a timed practice test to become comfortable with taking the test.

Face to Face tutoring Provides notes and other supplemental materials Use of flash cards Worksheets Problem solving
I have been tutoring independently since 2009 but have always liked helping others learn. I am good with math and numbers. Will go the extra mile to make sure the student/client understands that material. I like to provide as much feedback as possible to the student/client and build their confidence while tutoring them. I have worked with students as young as 5 years old teaching them how to count, numbers, etc to working adults in college and graduate school.

My Motto: Every Child Deseves To Succeed!

My teaching style consists of hands on application and converting math into everday language. Each student must be able to complete assigned math problems as well as explain how and why they chose their math operations. My teaching style for Reading consists of phonics, prefixes, suffixes, context clues, grammar strategies and tips. Each student must be able to summarize what they read, identify main idea, identify main character, and explain what they liked about it and what they didn't. Additionally each student will receive short daily assignments to reinforce building skills to improve knowledge and study skills.
I first began tutoring when I was attending University of Michigan. It gave me great pleasure to help others succeed. After graduating I held many prestigous positions but none captured my passion as much as tutoring. Eventually my passion got the best of me and I ... read more

Anything from Mathematics to Economics and Computers

I involve students a lot during the learning period. I consistently ask them questions about the topic and let them think for a while.

I consistently give students concepts and them demonstrate with sample questions.

I have advanced experience on tutoring high school students and college students in courses like PreCalculus, Algebra, Trigonometry, Statistics, Combinatorics and Probability, Econometrics, Calculus I, Calculus II and Calculus III and MicroEconomics and MacroEconomics as well as International Economics.

Learn from a Doctor: Writing, Test Prep, Classical Languages

Each student has different needs and different learning styles. When I meet a student, I try to adapt to the each student's distinctive learning style. More generally, I engage students with the material by asking lots of questions designed to open up new ways of perceiving the material. Where possible, I try to make learning a multisensory experience, incorporating visualization of data, reading written work aloud, and listening for clues to the solution of a problem.

More About This Tutor...

As an undergraduate student I was always in the top ten percentile of my math, chemistry and biology classes, and as a result, I tutored fellow college students in those respective subjects. After earning my bachelor degree in biology, I worked as an educator at the South Carolina Aquarium where I taught interactive classes to kindergarten, middle school and high school students. I also worked for the Leadership Development Program at the College of Charleston where I co-facilitated student leadership classes. And most recently, while in graduate school I held a teaching assistant position and tutored freshman and sophomore college students in topics related to international development.
My teaching style is based on the student’s learning style. Each child is different and may require different teaching methods to facilitate learning. Some children are more visual and may require ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am very flexible in my teaching style and have helped students who learn in very different ways. While I was working with the Reading by the River program I worked with four different students each of which learned in very different ways. From this I learned at a very early time in my life that it is crucial to cater to each individual students needs. I personally have a more analytical mind and analytical learning style however I have learned how to explain technical aspects of accounting in a variety of ways.
When I was in 7th and 8th grade I participated in America Reads where I helped teach elementary children how to read. In college I assisted with my church youth group and led classes approximately once a month for two years. During 2010 I volunteered with a Kindergarten class. I assisted the students with in-class assignments in writing and math. I hold a bachelors degr ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style consists of working with students in the affective and objective domains to make learning personal and enjoyable. That is, I address the student’s confidence and capabilities by establishing rapport and assessing his/her skills level through specific tasks or assessments. In the initial sessions, I determine the student’s interests through simple five-minute inventories or “getting-to-know-you” activities. With regards to academics, the study time always includes explanation or review of the focus skill (lesson) or task; my demonstrating the skill by completing a related task; a shared activity wherein the student and I complete a similar activity together; and, finally, the student’s practice of the skill in an independent activity. I end by giving the student feedback. My goal is to have the student become relaxed, capable, and proud of knowing.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have worked on curriculum revisions materials selection committees. I am currently working on creating digital technology for county use under the E2T2 Math Grant with a team of other Mathematics Educators. I have always had an interest in teaching, and received certification for 6-12 mathematics. I love being employed as a full time teacher, but my heart lies in tutoring. Once families became comfortable with me in the Atlanta area, I started private in-home tutoring and began getting requests to tutor in many other subjects as well. I have an extensive mathematics and test prep background and the ability to share this in an effective way with students and I have personal and professional experience working with students of all ages.
My approach to tutoring is that all students want to learn, some just need more of a push that others. It is my job to make the subject more rele ... read more
