I'm very hands on and like to show each problem step by step. I like to use a very visual method so that they not only hear what I am teaching, but can see it as well.
I have graduated high school, not only with honors but also in National Honor Society. I am currently enrolled in college and have completed Composition 1 and 2, College Algebra, Pre-Cal, and Statistical Mathematical Methods, Anatomy and Physiology 1 and 2 along with multiple other credits. I am currently in National Honor Society in college as well.

A Little Bit About Me...

Tutoring has long been a passion of mine. I find great joy in helping others, particularly children, advance their own knowledge and education. My goal is not simply to have my students learn; I want my students to love learning. I do not want my students to regurgitate facts but to truly understand. I am patient with my students, but I am also persistent in my approach. I never talk down to my students; rather I attempt to bring them up to my level. I am easy-going and have a way of quickly making others at ease with me. I try to make the tutoring environment as stress-free as possible. I believe that encouragement is key in driving students toward success. Once a student believes in himself/herself, learning comes naturally and quickly.
From the beginnings of my education, I have had a strong sense of personal excellence in my academic career. Being home schooled with the acceler ... read more

From my previous tutoring experience, an effective way to teach children is the most important thing. Explaining reasons and dealing with essential are more effective than remembering. This approach will motivate children to explore the unknown world and their potential. During the last few years, I strived to explain reasons briefly and hit essential directly to all of my students. As a result, they were able to gain an understanding in the subject faster than before.
I was majoring in International Economics and Trading in the college and completed my MBA program this year. After 6 year education, I am able to understand in many areas of Math, Economics and Statistics. Moreover, I am fluent in Chinese, English and Japanese, which alow me to teach and tutor Chinese and Japanese here as well as English for foreigners. As early as I was in the college, I have already had experience ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I design the lesson to the learning preference of the student. I incorporate technology, visual, tactile and kinesthetic teaching styles. This gives the student the maximum opportunity to learn. If a student is having trouble with reading comprehension there are various skill sets a child learns in order to help with standardized tests. I have experience in that area. An understanding of literary elements can also enhance a child's understanding of literature and reading. The ultimate goal is for the child to be able to read for gaining information, but also understanding of the world and experiences around them and from other people.
In my last three years of teaching I was the Inclusion/Resource teacher, however, I also worked with some Life-Skills students, as well as doing some 4th grade co-teaching. I am comfortable in working with at-risk students and understand the i ... read more
