Patient, Results-Oriented, and Dedicated!

I use effective practices, strategies, and resources to inspire and enrich each student's learning. Direct instruction, workbooks, visual aids, computers, math manipulative, hands-on activities, mini-labs, student-centered discussions, one-on-one tutoring and small-group instruction are used to honor various learning styles, students' needs and goals, as well as to ensure they are active learners. Students participate in small-group instruction, hands-on activities, mini-labs; may use computers for further enrichment and technology-integration; analyze words and stories; make real-life applications to concepts being presented; and customize their own learning environment through student-centered and teacher-led discussions and enrichment activities while receiving caring and effective support and guidance from me!

I have tutored for many years. My tutoring experience includes High school students and middle school students, however, I have helped many of my college friends with their school work numerous times. The people that I have tutored have really appreciated my services, and many times people I know have told me that I really should consider tutoring certain classes I am in with them, because they see I have the ability to teach well, and that I have a very good understanding of the material.

From 1997 to 2008 I was a school technologist in Maine public schools. I organized extracurricular programs, worked with individual students and small groups, and co-taught math and science classes. My teaching centered on math, computers, physics, and general science. Some of my extracurricular activities included a robotics club; summer computer programming classes for early elementary students; and field expeditions to study insects. I also offered workshops for teachers and parents. Before working in schools, I was a scientific and systems computer programmer and used math as part of my daily work.
My teaching style varies depending upon the needs of the child. I am patient and aware of many students’ stress around math. My goal is to improve each student’s basic understanding and confidence and to increase her or his enjoyment of learning. I select from a variety of approa ... read more

My experience is principally in marine research. In such, I have taught at three universities. Most recently I have been giving scheduled seminars for several years. I am semi-retired. My science background is mult-disciplinary. I enjoy most teaching ecology (both marine and terrestrial), geology, biology, physics, and chemistry. I have worked in this field on the west coast for twenty years, and about fifteen on the east coast. My principal fields of work have been geo-physics, and population ecology. Most of my recent work has been in Chesapeake Bay.
I am energetic and involved. I am a strong believer in the use of visual and other aids. I feel the best teaching can occur when it is interactive. I am highly computer literate, and regularly interject this medium.

My one to one teaching style is tailored to adapt to the students learning style. However, my experience shows that keeping the student active during the learning process promotes a better learning. I use Microsoft Excel during my lessons. I create formulas, graphs, etc. and the Excel spreadsheet and ask the student to enter the data so that he/she can see how things change with different entries. This interactive process increased the student interest, kept them focused and helped them to hold the knowledge in many instances.
Most of my teaching experience is from one to one tutoring. I have tutored over 20 students and always received compliments regarding my reliability, punctuality, style and patience. I have tutored for students with ages raging from 14 to 25 years old and included algebra, geometry, calculus, physics, etc. I worked as an 8th grade math teacher for a Catho ... read more

Teaching is a passion to me and I have a sense of accomplishment when I share or give back what I have been privilleged to acquire in my studies of sciences and math. I teach by example. For instance I will know that my students have understood when they perform a return demonstration. I am a nice guy and work with my students by establishing a sound relationships based on mutual trust. I believe that a sound understanding of basic math and science skills would have a great impact on the future accademic lives of individuals as well as in the real world when they grow up. I have extensive experience in working with children of apparently all age groups.

I work hard at finding a way to connect with the student. This requires that I stay aware of the hints that the student is transmitting so that I can present the material in a manner that the student can proclaim "I've got it". I also work with the student to solve problems. Another approach I use is to never answer a question directly. I always ask them questions in a manner that allows them to be guided to the answer. This builds their self confidence and allows them think thru the process to get at the answer and it helps them to take ownership of the content.
Over the past 15 years I have been a trainer for professionals in areas of process management and quality regulations. In addition I have 4 years of experience at the secondary school level teaching chemistry, math and physics. In addition I taught chemistry at the local community college as an adjunct instructor.

I am Paine College graduate. I earned a BS in Mathematics and Computer Science in 2006. While at Paine College I took variety of science classes including organic chemistry, atmospheric science, and cell biology. Since graduating, I have spent two years as a high school math teacher. I have also tooken graduate work in mathematic and math education. For the past eight years I have also work or volunteered as a personal math tutor.
Teaching is something that is not meant for everyone. I am fortunate to say that my academic success is due to my ability to break down any material to a basic ideal and teach the materials in mutiple ways. The most important thing I do is make the material appeal to any individuals. Once these things are established, I believe student can effectivly learn and grow.

My style of teaching is very simple, paying more attention to the students problems which I discover through frequent exercises given to them. I very much believe in teaching by examples and corrections. Basic concept explain is being followed by two or more examples, followed by exercises. I believe this gives the student a firm grip of the insight of the concept. I always like to hear the students' opinions, so I better understand their problems. I love teaching children, no matter how inattentive they are because I have different methods of handling such situations, one of them being continuous assessments. I also make little jokes to relax students' minds when I discover they are tired.
Being a holder of a bachelor of science in Physics (honors) with a minor in Computer science, I am very much versed and comfortable with physics, mathematics and computer sciences. I had tutored ... read more

Education has been more or less a family business. When I graduated with a degree in chemistry, I did not imagine I would follow the rest of my family. I ended up teaching chemistry and algebra part time at high school in Southern New England and soon added other adjunct teaching jobs to it. Now I teach at the same high school, a community college and I am a coordinator for an adult education program. I am finishing this school year and moving back to Maryland to start grad school.
I have learned through my experience that many people have a "math-phobia" This is usually onset by a teacher or incident from their past. My main objective when working with people in math is to break down those fears. When this happens, without fail, the doors begin to open and learning becomes much easier for the learner. As far as science, I believe that people need to experience science to understan ... read more
