Pre-Calculus Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Plainfield, MA

I have tutored on a volunteer basis with the Holyoke Tutor/Mentor Program for more than a year. I have also tutored privately. My experience has been with adults, however, I would like to add experience working with secondary school students. I can help with SAT's, MCAS, and just provide support for a student who needs some extra help. I like to get a sense of what the student already knows and try to build on that knowledge.

I have 8+ years of tutoring experience. My experience includes working with 8th graders, high schoolers, college kids, and adults. I've tutored from algebra I to precalculus, and have lots of experience tutor chemistry and physics as well. All of my students have shown improvement gradewise and had a better understanding. My goal is to give the student a solid base so that in the future, they don't need a tutor anymore. Problem-solving/self help is what I try to teach every student along with the actual material covered. I am very patient and can explain every topic a number of different ways. Whether something needs to be proven numerically or with a picture, I can cater the right style to the student.

I took Honors Pre-Calculus in eleventh grade and received an A+ for my hard work. Performing so well in this course allowed me to skip AP Calculus AB and move straight onto AP Calculus BC the following year. These concepts were again used in AP Calculus BC, so I know them very well and can explain them effectively. I have helped my classmates and have had one official student as of this summer. However, I have learned how to explain concepts so that students dont just memorize, they will gain a thought process and applicable knowledge that will enable them to solve even the most complex problems. Having this mentality of preparation and success will being them to reach their goals. Teaching new concepts, practice applying the new material, review, and more practice of the material to solidify the concepts.

Education is essential to establishing a strong foundation on which growth of knowledge and understanding is based. In a media-driven society, absence of effective education meeting the needs of the 21st century Lifelong Learner allows opportunities for ignorance to take shape and develop. If not combated with innovation and passion from its community of educators, negative repercussions in our schools and to society can result. Therefore, I always aim to and succeed in providing a stimulating Lifelong Learning environment that encourages students to further develop the skills and knowledge necessary to reach their full potential and utilize innovative resources and technology. Fostering confidence through motivation and inspiration is crucial to these realizations. As a Professional Educator, an eclectic teaching style is needed to breed success in the Lifelong Learning environ

I am completing my MA in Secondary Education from the University Phoenix (Online), needing only a student teaching assignment in the field of secondary mathematics to complete all the degree requirements .

During my undergraduate career at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, I obtained a wealth of knowledge in the fields of math and science. I did this by striving for excellence in the classroom and participating in cutting edge research with professors in the Entomology and Organic Chemistry departments. My extensive knowledge of the subjects I’ve studied has allowed me to assist my friends in understanding complex and difficult problems. This past year I privately tutored classmates in both Statistics and Organic Chemistry. I believe the best way for someone to learn something is through application and repetition. As both a tutor and youth lacrosse coach I have had success by teaching my students how to approach problems rather than simply giving them answers. I am extremely patient and am very willing to take alternative approaches in helping a student learn.

With my major throughout College all areas of Business were reviewed, Marketing, Management, Accounting & Finance and then one was chosen as your concentration to primarily focus on. I chose Finance with a minor in Information Systems. I have done accounting and payroll for about six years prior to about a year and a half ago switching over to do work in Information Systems where I am presently. I enjoy working with the mathematical side of my major very much and bring a lot of experience with that from my education. Math is definitely a strong suit for me.

I would best describe my method of teaching as a give and take experience. Through diologue, I am able to lead the student through the thought process that will derive the correct answer. Giving bits of information can provoke a new approach to the task at hand. I also feel it is important to individualize each person being tutored, as everyone learns differently. Some learn best through the use of things such as pnuemonic devices, while others may need repitition to effectivily remember the material. Gaining knowledge is a passion of mine and sharing this information is something I truly enjoy. My journey through the undergraduate sciences has given me the skills needed to be an effective tutor. Holding a 3.6 GPA, I was able to work with students in group settings, teaching as well as learning. As a member of the chemistry society, we also offered peer tutoring where I was an acti
