I enjoy seeing students develop an understanding of mathematical concepts and methods. I try to avoid lecturing, but have students come up with the methods of solving problems by themselves (with occasional hints or pointing in the right direction by me). I also emphasize problem solving and developing problem solving skills. One of my mentors taught me the mantra, "When you can solve one problems, you can solve hundreds just like it." I try to encourage students to organize the information they know and the mathematical tools they know and then to take a step-by-step approach to solving the problems. I also recognize that different explanations work with different students and, as much as possible, work with individuals. I have 36 years experience as a practicing actuary, including 21 years in consulting. As a consultant, I developed the ability to explain mathematical concepts to

I'm a very patient, open minded and outgoing person. My uplifting spirit is energizing and contagious. I have a can do attitude and can work through tough barriers to help students learn, understand, and comprehend the material. I understand the courses are layered in a way that concepts build upon one another. Once students grasp the foundation, they can use that as strength toward a better understanding. I follow a simple strategy of tell, show, let do, observe, report. Where I explain the concepts and help with comprehension, show the steps and examples, let the student try the entire problem while I observe opportunities and areas of improvement, and report to the student their successes as well as our next steps. Throughout my educational career, I've been a leader and a mentor. I enjoy tutoring peers and fellow students in a one on one setting. I feel that every student can excel w

I enjoy teaching and bring fun into all my lesson plans.

I find that teaching works best if you tailor the material to your audience - i.e. you don't want to lose them OR bore them. Use what they know as a foundation to build on to teach new concepts. If material is difficult or unfamiliar to your class it's important to be prepared in advance with several approaches to get the material across. Review material periodically to reinforce confidence in the students and always make sure they have a firm grasp on material before moving on.

I love to teach. I have experience with 5-50 years old and, if pressed, could not name a favorite group. I believe that everyone can learn; some of us just process information in different ways. As a tutor it is my job to discover how a student processes information and adapt my lesson to accommodate them. Learning can be both fun and serious, as long as it is productive. As part of my lifelong love of learning and teaching, I began tutoring when I was just fourteen years old. While in high school, I usually tutored math (mostly algebra, geometry, and trigonometry) and general science. Once I moved to college, I began to work with middle school as well as high school students again in mostly math and science. However, I have a BA in politics and history; therefore I am extremely confident in many liberal arts subjects. I have also earned an MBA which helped to hone my grammatical and com

I became a teacher because I enjoy mentoring and helping others attain their goals. I have a passion for Mathematics, Software technology and Business applications of either or both subjects. I offer a pupil the twin goals of attaining the competence and character needed to succeed in their chosen field. I demonstrate the need for teacher and student to operate with empathy and active listening while we support each other in mastery of our tasks. My colleagues and principals normally appreciate my suggestions for improving “best practices “. I am an innovator with a passion for excellence. I believe in most fields one needs to attain the stage of good before one seeks better.

While a student I acted as a teacher's assistant teaching Argumentation and Debate for one semester, and tutored Basic Statistics for one semester. As an accounting professional I trained new employees in Accounting, both in classroom and individual environments. While this experience was on an "as needed" basis, since I have worked as a Controller for over twenty-five years I believe I have at least three years of accumulated experience teaching accounting. I like to present material, but expect interaction with students to reach a mutual understanding of the material. Students are expected to develop to a level of independence that will allow them to work without assistance.

My method is to reach students exactly where there at and use methods that would stimulate all types of learners . Once I was teaching a group of sixth graders who would be entering Algebra soon. I gave them a true life math example. Our equasion; a party with the number of students, quantity of different items and costs. When we devided the items their costs with the number of students we came up with how much each student had to pitch in. In this example I had some items that were to be used and they were able to touch them. I also told them very clearly what was going on while I was writing it all down. This stimulated many different learning types My teaching experience began at a Riverside County Probation Facility for Wards of the court in Banning California.
