Don't tell me 2+2=4. Tell me WHY 2+2=4.

Although I wish I could count the endless amount of time I spent playing teacher as a child, I know parents are looking for more expierence than an eight year old and her dolls. I have tutored children, ages ranging from eight to fourteen, off and on for three years. I have expierence and am personally more comfortable helping with English and math centered tutoring for any grade level but am able to help with other elementary level classes.I've had the privilege to help with the passionate and the difficult and have been able to produce satisfactory results for all parties involved.
My teaching style differs with each child. One child does well learning by applying the material to real live situations Another does better with breaking it down and just memorizing facts I am very flexible and make an effort to find the best method to save both myself and the child time that would ... read more

Making a difference in other people’s lives & having the pleasure to teach them valuable skills has been a gifted experience. With great leadership & enthusiasm I would like to continue this experience. My goal is to have my students master the main concepts & understand the theory not only to solve their homework problems but to solve any problem they may encounter in the future. I believe we all have a gifted unique mind set to solve problems & learning comes best from hand-on experience. Having students participate in class is one of my strategies to teach & test their ability & understanding of the problem. I have taught students in algebra/trigonometry, calculus, ordinary/partial differential equations, & several engineering courses.
One of my greatest tools has been mathematics. I enjoy working with numbers and solving problems. At Boise State University I was the coordinato ... read more

It isn't that mathematics is too hard for most people, it is just too frustrating for most people. So my job is to set my client at ease and to create a learning environment. Once that learning environment is created, teaching is easy. I have worked with difficult students. One, who we will call John, has Autism, Schizophrenia, and vomits when upset. It was my job to teach John how to count money. After trying a variety of methods, we eventually found that learning in traditional environments was too stressful for John. So, we played Monopoly. People had been trying to teach him to count money for months, maybe years. Three weeks after I started with him, I took him to Walmart with a ha ... read more
