Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Olympia, WA

I attempt to answer questions and explain concepts with as much detail as possible, while letting students discover answers on their own. I try and let the student arrive at the answer as independently as possible. I explain concepts using technical terminology, lamen terms, analogies, examples, pictures, videos, or drawings, etc. My educational intetests lead me to complete a wide range of subject-disciplines in Mathematics. At the South Puget Sound Community College Math Center, in an open classroom setting, I tutored up to ten students an hour. I also tutored privately for several years around that time, and in March of this year began tutoring again. I'm an expert tutor in the following subjects: elementary math, pre-algebra, algebra, geometry, and SAT prep. I'm also experienced with elementary education, grammar, reading, sentence structute, punctuation, etc. As a tutor, my goals

I have a hands on teaching style with the ability help you understand how to come to the right answer through logic and reasoning. I believe that memorization is NOT learning, and that teaching WHY an answer is correct is more important than the answer itself. I have taken the ASVAB twice, once in high school and again right before I enlisted. I placed in the 99th and 96th percentile respectively with a GT score of 125, and all other line scores in the 130s. I am currently active duty Army. My math skills include all math disciplines up to and including calculus II, however I am strongest in advanced algebra and below.

I like to empower the student. Hands on is important, and then let the student develop and learn by empowerment. I have over 30 years of playing and teaching experience of piano and keyboard. I feel I have an advantage as a piano teacher with perfect pitch. Even though my strength as a player is primarily jazz, I can teach all styles. I can teach using two approaches. There are students who want to learn how to read or to improve their reading skills, and then there are students who know how to read, but cannot improvise. My experience allows me to teach piano with both approaches.

I like to take a "Pimsluer" approach to learning languages, meaning it's not how many words you know. Rather it's using what you know and making the most of it. All the while consistently seeking for opportunities to learn ASL by simply conversing with natives. I'm hoping as a tutor we can continue enriching ourselves in this great language and gain greater in depths into this subject American Sign Language has been a profound influence in my life. It began as a sophomore in high school, for my junior and senior year my teacher was deaf. My skills improved rapidly when I was called to serve for two years in the deaf community in CA. Just prior I was called to learn this subject and a language learning institute for ten weeks. In the city of Fremont CA was the deaf institute where I labored for nearly two years. Due to its reputation and richness in deaf culture students from all over

Modern Age, Cutting Edge and Detail Oriented plus Fun! I'm a average web designer who is completely self taught. I think that for that reason I would be able to connect more with the students because I didnt sit in a classroom and have a teacher. I learned at a slower rate but I got to choose which fields in webdesign I wanted to focus on. In a college type setting your required to follow the same study path that all the other students are on. Which makes learning your favorite style much harder. I can provide a per student curriculum of study which will bring a positive and fun take on the world of web design which is made even more cutting edge by my age. A 33 yr old can teach someone how to make a modern unique website. A 60+ yr old tutor will only show how to build boring run of the mill websites! :)
