Geometry Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in San Acacia, NM

Using many concrete materials, I can explain area, volume, triangles, degrees, congruencies, complimentary angles, acute, obtuse and right angles, postulates and theorems. Teaching middle school and high school science from 1983 to 2004, including every science subject listed in the TutorSelect list. I have worked as an educational consultant for national science laboratories, helping them train their scientists to work better in the school classrooms where they volunteer. I have worked for museums and for outdoor education programs, but have found the most satisfaction as a classroom teacher with all kinds of students. I have worked teaching teachers, but they were very difficult students. Multiple ways of presenting material; musically, visually, building models, finding answers by testing a hypothesis; experimenting, measuring, observing, seeing, touching.

As a graduate from New Mexico Tech, I believe my education to be advanced and very useful. NMT has very high expectations for its students, and demands an obscene amount of drive and focus. The math department in particular, is very challenging; therefore, I feel that my hard work and achievements present much to offer any student. All of my prior tutoring experience has been volunteer work for family members and friends in various fields; mostly mathematics, but also some chemistry, GMAT preparation, and elementary grammar. Though I do not have any certified teaching experience, my education and volunteer work have been quite in depth. I enjoy helping others and believe that teaching is a constant learning experience for the teacher/ tutor as well as the student. If at any point I reach a topic that I have not used in some time, I am willing to purchase a textbook or topic material in o

I have a passion for teaching and working with children of all ages. I strive to teach my own children when the time comes to do so, but believe that teaching can begin at any age, and that all children, taught using their own abilities, can succeed in all subjects. I firmly believe that given the right surrounding and educator, one whom has a passion for teaching, will guide the next generations to succeed in education and learning. With a BA in Biology and research experience at Lovelace Respiratory Research Institute, as well as, the UT Health Science Center in San Antonio, I have used and learned extensive mathematical skills as well as grammatical skills for writing research papers and maintaining precise calculations in dosing. I tutored students in calculus, algebra, chemistry, and biology while also attending classes. I was elected to the Dean's Honor List as well as nominated to

During my career as a researcher in the field of software engineering, my work depended on mathematical thinking. I have spent considerable energy, from my time working toward my Bachelor's and Master's degrees in engineering and through my subsequent career, communicating ideas through writing, lecturing, tutoring, and creating and teaching courses. Watching my own children going through high school has motivated me for the past six years to focus my attention on teaching and tutoring, concentrating on math. I enjoy teaching young adults, watching "the light bulb go off" as they come to understand concepts that had been eluding them. Math is a subject that centers around understanding and applying a surprisingly modest number of concepts. As such, I focus on the concepts and their relationships, preferring to look at the concepts through varying problems from various domains, rather tha
