Mechanical Engineering Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Pomfret, CT

I graduated from the UConn with a B.S. in physics and a minor in mathematics. Because I have used calculus and linear algebra on a daily basis as a means of solving problems I have developed a fundamental understanding of mathematics; an understanding that only someone who has used thse mathematical tools extensively can achieve. I have been tutoring for the past four years. I began tutoring at UConn my junior year and was quickly the most popular physics and calculus tutor on my shift. On several occasions I taught groups of ten or so as a class. It was then that I realized how much I liked teaching. Since I have graduated I have tutored at Sylvan Learning Center and Total Academic Center tutoring various subjects and age groups. I am easy going, energetic, very passionate (especially when teaching calculus and physics), and engaging. In most cases it takes only a few sessions and stud

I had my undergraduate degree in mechanical engineering from University of Nigeria at GPA of 3.43/4 (transcripts translated by World Education Services WES, USA). I successfully secured the prestigious Japanese Government Scholarship for a postgraduate study in environmental engineering at Hokkaido University Japan where I successfully graduated at GPA of 3.94/4 (transcripts translated by WES USA). I also conducted an advance science research which have been published in a science journal and presented orally in several professional conferences in Japan. I strongly believe that every student has the ability to learn and succeed if given the appropriated learning experience. Therefore, I strive as much as possible to demystify sciences subjects like mathematics, physics, and chemistry and make learning a fun. By so doing, student will love learning and succeed in their academic pursuit.

I truly enjoy teaching. I am very easy going and I can make subjects easy to learn. Since I have an engineering background, I have the tendency to break complex problems into smaller parts. This makes it easier for the student to follow through. All my students in the past have enjoyed learning from me and I am certain that this will not change. I truly believe that anybody can learn math and science; it is a matter of time and perception. In other words, at what angle can the student learn the subject at hand and how quickly can the instructor find the student's vantage point. While pursuing my Engineering degree at Roger Williams University, I noticed that there were not too many students from low income families attending college. That is why I joined Bridge to Success Program on January 2001. BTS was a program, sponsored by Roger Williams University at the time, which focused in assi

With normal class size groups... the goal is to provide a lesson with real educational content but to deliver it in a totally entertaining format... usually organizing the students into groups to a) provide support for the challenged and b) excitement for the total class as each group competes against the others. one-on-one teaching requires that the objective(s) be well established and then carefully focus on the individual student's best learning method, be it: verbal, written, reading, hands-on, or all of the above. In general a good teacher will be well planned and offers a delivery which teaches in concentrated bursts, with a brief break every 20 minutes. Over 20 years of engineering experience, primarily, automated electronic test for manufacture of electronics. Over 2 years of Masters level engineering in bone density measurement, spectroscopy and neutron detection

I enjoy teaching, educating and mentoring students to be all they can be and excel in their coursework. I also enjoy just working with students to encourage them and show them how learning can be fun! I am a very patient and caring person who also offer mentoring and career development to students in many subjects. I use creative teaching and learning by practicing methods to have students enjoy a subject or course material. I also teach students to be able to learn the material in a way that they can be comfortable to teach themselves. I challenge and practice over and over with my students until they learn the material. I am a certified tutor for the state of CT with over 10 years of tutoring experience from pre-K to college level in the subjects of math, science, engineering and reading. I have BS, MS and PhD degrees in engineering and have been tutoring in many states, CT, MA, MD, V

I strive to design experiences for students to step through to shatter their preconceived notions about math and the physical universe, and get them to understand underlying relationships. I work so that students see themselves as problem solvers through techniques involving the use of their developing understanding of concepts with memorable models. I like to exploit the visualization of physics and calculus concepts available on – line and to use web – based simulators. I believe that I am in a unique position to help your students learn both physics and math. The experiences that I have had teaching various math courses and physics, I think, allow me to frame lessons that address the subjects in a way that dovetails with students’ previous knowledge, and asks and answers the essential questions that the math or physics curriculum should involve.

I love to teach by examples and the students walk away with a solid understanding of the sciences. As a matter of fact, some parents wrote to me wishing that I would have been their kids full time teacher, rather than a tutor Teaching style is highly dependent on the subject being taught. I like to teach Physics and combine it with experimentation. I like to teasch Math and combine it with many problrm sets and exercises, As a Ph.D. in Electrical ENgineering I have worked in the industry and taught at undergraduate level at BU. I am a successful entrepreneur having founded 2 companies which were acquired. I am now considering my next venture and I decided that I would love to teach again. I have experience teaching at highschool and college level, preparing kids for the Math SAT and more. I have taught Math (Calculus, Algebra, Trigonometry, etc), Physics, Spanish, Hebrew, History,

As a graduate teaching assistant in 1992, department of engineering selected me as the teaching assistant of the year. Teaching was fulfilling and rewarding to me. I offered additional tutoring sessions at no cost to help students comprehend the material. I have limited experience as a substitute teacher. I substituted a few times when I lived in Connecticut in 1995 and then a few times in Maine in 2000. Mostly, my career as a principal mechanical engineer dominated my time for the last 16 years. As a teacher I strive to understand the best means of communicating information to a student. Listening to a student's current understand helps me determine the optimal approach to advancing their knowledge. All students are capable of learning, albeit at varying paces and varying levels, it is a matter of determining the most efficient means of connecting with each student. When a
