My background is Physical Sciences and I have extensive experience also in teaching and instructing students. I instructed students during their undergraduate physics and engineering studies especially in the lab projects in science and I also trained Ph.D. students during their research work in the lab. I worked with high school students during their internship at National Cancer Institute in Frederick MD teaching them a broad range of subjects, from calculus to chemistry and biology. I also tutored K-12 students in few subjects such as Math and Physics.

Children learn in different ways. No one teaching style will work for every student. My teaching style revolves around the needs of the student. I love to help determine what methods will work best for each individual. I have an extremely laid-back personality, and my wife will tell you that I am very patient. I do not believe in failure, and will do whatever it takes to help my students succeed. I have always been driven by a desire to help others succeed in subject areas that I love. Shortly after college, I began a volunteer-driven, grant-funded literacy tutoring program in two elementary schools. I have an earned Bachelor's degree in communication arts with a minor in English. I have two full years of teaching experience, and I am currently working on obtaining my PA teacher's certification in secondary language arts.

As a recent college graduate of Savannah College of Arts and Design, I have extensive experience with writing skills, leading and directing project based assignments and writing research papers, essays and critiques in my field. The varied classload I carried during my 4 years has more than prepared me for a tutoring position as I feel that all of my experiences with writing, psychology, various design and film communication art classes give me the skillset required to help students achieve their educational goals. I am a demonstrative teacher and leader. I believe in the theory of "model, action, and talk" style of presentation of concepts. My creative background lends itself well to keeping a student's initiative and inspiration to a high level so that they are actually motivated to perform at their best. My personality traits are that I am disciplined and a believer in seeking the t

I graduated from high school as number eleven in rank out of 248. I often assisted other students in both high school and college. Later, as a homeschooling mother of four, I taught all of my children all subjects through the eighth grade level. I just returned from the island of Saipan, where I taught high school English in a private school, and seventh grade English in a public school. I presently am a certified substitute teacher in the Cumberland County, PA, public school system, where I teach almost all grade levels and subjects. I far prefer private tutoring over formal teaching, as I believe my abilities are put to their greatest use in that setting. I absolutely love working with students one-on-one. It's what I do best. Because of my experience in teaching my own children, I have discovered that no child is too young to learn. Often people will not consider an infant or toddler

I am currently working on my doctoral disseration and adjunct teaching at ITT tech, University of Phoenix and MCann Business school. I teach a variety of business courses as well as math and english classes. Having a Masters degree in Finance and Accounting has allowed me to have a strong background in Math as well as business. In addition to teaching, I tutor students in Math and general studies. My teaching philosophy is one that is formed based on my drive to inspire and my belief in academic excellence. I am inspired to be one of those teachers that students look back on and remember as someone who has helped them achieve their goals. To me, significant teaching accomplishments come through the achievements of the students. As an educator it is important for me to teach my students how to balance the busy schedule of someone working in the business world, with their desire for educ

I have trained students in a laboratory, restaurant and in the home. I graduated from college with honors and have succeeded in statistics, algebra 2, calculus 1, biology 1, chemistry 1, English literature, professional writing, civics, sketching/painting and classical guitar It's imperative to listen and understand a students challenges. Reviewing their previous work and giving a current test is a good indicator of the situation. I believe in practice and examples as the clearest path to success. I don't hand deliver answers and I make the process towards answers engaging. I make sure the time and place are conducive to active and non-distractive learning. I relay the importance and relevance of the material. I recap previous lessons and try to integrate them into current assignments. I always value and respect people and expect the same of my students.

I have tutored at the middle, high school, and college levels since my first year of college in 2004. Since then, I have worked as a paraeducator for the Special Education Dept. of an elementary school where I worked with first and second graders. For my student teaching experience, I was an intern for a full year at a city middle school, working with 8th graders in the subjects of science (primary), communication arts, and math. I am completing a teaching certification program, and am certified in Biology and Chemistry. I am also able to tutor computer skills, study skills, communication arts and math, by integrating my content-specific abilities and what I have learned through the teacher-preparation program at Millersville University. I have become very adept at determining what level each student is at and tailoring my teaching style to suit the students that I am working with. I

I am patient, easy-going, but I expect my students to set goals and put forth the effort required to meet them. I tend to take a constructiv

I enjoy teaching and tutoring both. I have a very flexible style of tutoring and hence can adjust to student's learning style very comfortably. Since I have experience in broad subject areas, I can help students refresh on some material from their previous classes and also help them build a strong foundation for upcoming courses. Since my childhood I was always interested in education and academics. This definitely reflects in my degrees since a female entering an engineering school was very uncommon in those days and especially in India. After getting my B.S. I knew I wanted to teach; hence I pursued my masters in Mechanical Engineering. I have been teaching and tutoring for many years but for 15+ in Maryland. I have very good communication skill. I have tutored students in various subject area - starting from middle school Math and Science - to undergraduate courses in Math, Physics an

I like to take the "mystery" out of the subject. Math can be especially scary to students who don't have a strong foundation in general mathematics and reading comprehension. I am currently volunteer tutoring an adult friend in general math and I am proud to say that her understanding of the basic principles have increased dramatically in only a couple of sessions. I like to teach students how to take each problem apart into its seperate components. Once they can understand each individual component and how it works, they are able to see the entire system much more readily. I have assisted a number of students; Grades 1-12 as well as college-aged and continuing education in various math and science courses. My previous career included 27 years in the television industry at various local production facilities in Oklahoma, Texas, Maryland as well as the Washington DC bureau of the ABC Net

I worked as a Teacher's Assistant at West Virginia university and taught my own section of a one credit course required of all freshmen students while working on a BA in English with a concentration in Creative Writing. While working on my MA in English Literature with a Certificate in Folklore at George Mason university, I worked as a substitute teacher and then was hired as a full time middle school English teacher. I worked as a middle school English teacher until April 2010. I have a passion for working individually with students to find their personal learning styles so that they can succeed and excel academically. I encourage students to think through a problem and find a solution that works for their individual abilities and plays to their strengths. I believe learning sh
