A Little Bit About Me...

I have gained bachelor's degree in pharmaceutical science. I love to teach. I like mathematics. I have one year experience of teaching mathematics. I am taking math 155 now. I gave GRE exam. I scored well in it.
I like to teach. I want to help your children. I am patient. My personality is easy going. I would like to help them. One can explain in many ways, but the most important way of explaining is the one which child can understand it very easily. I try to follow it.

I have six children of my own and know that every child learns differently, even when they come from the same family. I believe the majority of children can master the material they are presented in school, but it is a matter of time. Many children take a little more time to understand the concepts and master the skills needed to move on to the next level. Sadly many of these children aren't given the time to do it and are just passed on to the next level. By doing this they fall further and further behind until they become discouraged to the point of quitting. I desire to reach those children. Not every child is an "A" student, but every child has his or her unique gifts. I strive to help each child find those gifts and to do the best he or she can in every area. I like to get to know the child and find the best way possible, whether it be modifying a curriculum or my own approa ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated summa cum laude from the State University of NY College at Cortland with a BA in Secondary English Education in 1989. Following that, I held a variety of positions in education including teaching in pre-schools and tutoring centers. Additionally, I have 2 years experience as a substitute teacher in a variety of subjects. I also home-schooled my own children for 5 years. During one of those years, I taught 2nd and 3rd graders part-time in an After School Enrichment Program. Most recently, I taught 7th Grade Language Arts in a public school for one year and 6th Grade English and Bible at a private Christian school for 4 years.
As most people know, there are a variety of learning styles, and each student is a unique person with his or her own way of learning and being motivated to succeed. As a teacher, I always strive to know each student as an individual and discover how ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Children have an inate desire to learn: My task is to "train them up in the way they should go, so that when they are old, they will not not depart from it." Having three children of my own, ages 16, 12, and 8, I have always had an active part in teaching them. They have taught me patience, love, and perseverance to the task at hand. Teaching is my gift! Inspiring my students to learn is my passion. Adapting my teaching to their learning style has always proven to be an effective technique.
Having taught and tutored middle school to community college level students for more than seven years, I work to inspire them to be active learners. My BA in Mathematics and additional graduate studies in Mathematics Education serve to provide a rich understanding of this subject. Also, my seminary years afforded me ample opportunities through research papers, book reviews, journal entries, and ... read more

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE River City High School, Sacramento CA Algebra teacher 08/08/2005-12/18/2005 Teacher Assistant Math department UCDavis 09/30/2003 – 08/05/2005 TA for classes Calculus 16A, 16B, 16C and 21A, 21B, 21C (groups and individual consultations)
About my role as a teacher, I think that the main principle should be “teaching for understanding”. A teacher creates learning opportunities that engage students in thinking about important mathematical concepts. Facts and skills support such learning but are not the ultimate goal. A teacher not only draws on past knowledge of mathematics but continuously builds on and refines that knowledge during meaningful interactions with students and colleagues. Thus, her or his practice as a teacher is constantly evolving

My teaching technique strictly focuses on the task at hand mainly for proper concentration. I value and encourage student questions because it demonstrates my knowledge and expertise about the material being taught. I do not tolerate immature and irresponsible behavior from a student because it hinders a student's progress when he/she is unwilling to listen or seriously apply my teaching towards the objectives he/she want to accomplish. I take into consideration a student's level of understanding for the material being taught and teach him/her accordingly. I believe that because of my experience with various types of mathematical content, I am confident students will reap the most advantageous benefits of my teaching!
Throughout my academic years, in the public school system and higher education, I excelled in mathematics. As a senior at Harding University High School in Charlotte, ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a graduate from UNC with a degree in English, I have gained an in-depth understanding of the English language. Through this rigorous program, I was consistently expected to provide strongly written and grammatically accurate essays that proved I had achieved an above-average analytical understanding of many forms of literature. My verbal and written communication skills were honed while serving in editorial and leadership positions at the university. I have invested time in helping others prepare essays that seek to analyze and investigate all types of prose from poetry to academic journals. I am currently a Preschool teacher and will begin a graduate program in Elementary Education this summer.
My teaching style is founded on being patient and intentional towards every learning student. I am very intentional about making sure that students feel comfortable expressing how they d ... read more
