I am currently pursuing my BS degree in business management and finance. I have completed all of my math requirements and passed calculus with an "A" average. I home school my 9 year old daughter and really enjoy watching her learn and grow. I can teach many different styles to suit different learning styles. I truly believe in the mastery technique. My 9 year old has ADD and severe dyslexia so i have to employ many different styles to meet her needs. Being a great teacher is all about knowing and understanding your student and how they learn.

The goal of my approach is to enable students to have a level of ownership in learning concepts and ideas. Merely teaching the idea is not enough, and that "Oh, I see" moment must occur to embed the idea for long-term growth. I enjoy relating the ideas and facts to real world examples that almost anyone can grasp. For a period of five years, I offered tutoring services to students at the University of Chapel Hill, Duke University, and North Carolina State University. My ability comes from experience...I was not entirely prepared for college when I started, and had to work much harder to successfully complete my degrees. I believe that this has given me a great insight into what students really need, especially as schools continue to do a less than perfect job of preparing students for the future.

I believe a supportive environment is critical for an excellent learning experience. First, I work to set up an environment of mutual respect, a place where the student knows I respect him or her and the student respects me. To accomplish this task, I actively engage with the student by showing an interest in the student's life. Essentially, I get to know the student. I then aim to clarify the subject matter the student finds challenging. If they still find a concept confusing, I approach the topic in an alternate manner. I do not give up on the student or the topic; I believe every student can understand a challenging concept by having a teacher explain it to them in a way the student finds comprehensible. In high school, I served as a tutor for elementary school students for the state program Ohio Reads. At the University of Pittsburgh, I earned a BA in English Writing with minors in

In teaching/tutoring, I have an ongoing teacher-student conversation that resembles a programmed unit. I talk mathematics from a tutor's point of view and expect the student to fill in the blanks in a way such that I've set him/her up. What it does is keep the student's attention since they've to answer my questions and "fill in my blanks". I love tutoring students of all ability levels as I show them the light at the end of the tunnel and that light eventually lights up their eyes and their faces! I love hearing my students say that can't believe this Algebra II is so easy or that he'd be failing this 7th math without my tutoring! Since 1966, I have been teaching/tutoring students in all levels of mathematics. In 1977, I graduated from Bowling Green State University with a Bachelor's Degree in Mathematics Eduation. I consider myself a Mathematics teacher, substitute teacher(60 schools),

I graduated from Ohio State in June 2011 with a BS in molecular genetics. I graduated with honors and with a GPA of 3.657. I have taken the MCAT with a score of 33 (10-BS, 12-PS, 11-V). I have never worked professionally as a tutor but I have tutored friends extensively throughout my college experience. I have an extensive background in biology, physics, chemistry, and the humanities. I am very well rounded in all subjects and would have no problem teaching any part of the MCAT, or any other educational material. I really enjoy working with students, especially at the college level, who have not experienced a great deal of success in a particular subject and aspire to do better. I believe that the key to any kind of scientific or mathematical learning is repetition. It is first important to get to the heart of the concept, and see what is holding someone back from understanding so

I am a doctoral candidate finishing up my third year in the Department of French and Italian at The Ohio State University. My major is French, with a specialization in second language acquisition (SLA), and secondary specializations in modern French culture and French cinema. In addition to my studies, I also teach French within the Department. In my five years of experience, I have taught the first four levels of French, in addition to intensive versions that combine two of the levels together. During the summer of 2008, I taught algebra and geometry to 9th- and 10th-graders in the Upward Bound program at Columbus State. Outside of school I have been tutoring for seven years. I have tutored subjects such as math, English, ACT/SAT prep, and creative writing. I recently became involved with interpretation for a high-school student from Haiti for his Ohio Graduate Test (OGT).

After graduating cum laude from Miami University in 2003, I began teaching 8th grade at the same small junior/senior high school where I had previously student taught. I worked on an interdisciplinary team, which gave me exposure to all content areas. I began my Masters degree that same year. In my third year of work there, an operating levy failed, leaving me jobless, but through a classmate in my MAT program, I found a new position in an excellent district--larger and more innovative than my previous school. There, I taught 84-minute, double-blocked Language Arts classes: honors seventh grade and inclusion eighth grade. Over the last five years, I have tutored students who were homebound for a multitude of reasons in reading and writing skills. I am a dynamic teacher who can adapt to whatever it seems the student most immediately needs. While I prefer a more laid-back, go-with-the-flow

My teaching style varies as much as the students I teach. My goal is to present material in perhaps a new manner which often means a non-traditional approach to learning. Ultimately I would like for all of my students to associate learning with something positive in their lives. My classes/sessions, although often rigorous, are always taught with a smile and humor and always as a time to ask questions and to seek answers. I am an Ohio certified teacher with 10+ years of teaching experience. I have taught in both public and private schools, in elementary and middle schools. I have tutored and taught outside the tradition classroom in the field of mathematics for grades K-college including General Mathematics, Pre-Algebra, Algebra, Geometry, College Algebra, Integrated Mathematics, SAT/ACT prep, and EMT mathematics. I have edited and contributed to an Algebra Readiness program for a local

I am a recent graduate of The Ohio State University, where I earned my BS in Microbiology. My strong background in science and mathematics allowed me to tutor students in both chemistry and microbiology during my time as an undergraduate. Being the daughter of an English teacher, my writing skills were further polished by time spent in college English classes and writing countless lab reports in microbiology, chemistry, and biochemistry. I've worked with both high school and college students, both gifted and disadvantaged students, and I believe that the key to being a successful tutor is understanding your student and how he/she learns. Through my experiences, I've learned how to explain subject matter in a way that enables students to repeat back to me in their own words what I just explained. This is critical. I believe students learn best by understanding first, and memorizing when a
