Engineering student at UMD, well versed in many subjects.

I am currently enrolled as a student at the University of Maryland, College Park, in my junior year studying mechanical engineering. Prior to my studies at UMD, I took several classes at Frederick Community College, while in high school. While on my way to this level, I have taken many interesting classes and seen both effective and ineffective methods of communicating the critical content of these subjects. I am very familiar with both high school and college level math and science, and still use many of those principles in my current studies. I do have limited tutoring experience, mostly from tutoring friends and family.

Physics is one of my top subjects!

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.

Physics is one of my top subjects!

I'm a recent graduate of Bowie State University. I graduated with a degree in Biology and a minor in Chemistry with a cumulative GPA of 3.4 and science GPA of 3.6. I have experience in the science disciplines through extracurricular studies as well. I interned at Cornell University and Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons and was able to acquire many contacts. As President of the Bio-medical organization at Bowie State I was able to help many students get internships and summer programs. Not only will I be able to provide helpful tutoring services but I will also serve as a resource for future endeavors.

College: Calculus I Calculus II Statistics Electrical Circuits General Physics I General Physics II First, I'd like to tell you about myself. I am currently a student at Mary Baldwin College. I plan to double major in mathematics and physics and then transfer to a graduate college, where I will be studying for my masters in engineering. My passion for math comes from my desire to be an engineer in the future, and since then I have disciplined myself to getting good grades in math. In high school, I took every possible math class that was offered and graduated with honors and a 4.9 GPA. I am currently taking calculus and physics and hope to keep getting good grades in both subjects.

In 12 years as a high school teaching assistant, I have worked primarily with individual students in a wide range of subjects ranging from art, literature and history, to science and mathematics. This has provided me with interpersonal skills and a pool of knowledge that will be invaluable in a tutoring setting. Flexibility is a necessary skill in an educational system. As a teaching assistant, I must constantly stay well organized under changing conditions and perform a wide range of assignments with confidence. I have to communicate effectively with students who have a wide variety of interests and intellectual capabilities. My calm, soft-spoken nature has been an asset in working with an individual student without disturbing others.

As I began my college experience, I knew I would study the biological sciences. In earning a BS degree in biology, I was able to develop an understanding of various disciplines of science, such as chemistry and physics, and also math. During my senior year of college I tutored young students in algebra, earth science, and physical science. Over the past two years, I lived in Korea where I tutored Korean people in learning the English language.

Teaching is something that has always come natural to me. Whether its giving golf lessons out at the local country club, or teaching my younger siblings math and chemistry. It is something that I enjoy and I will persist until results are shown. My teaching style is to first observe, then diagnose flaws and work from there. I have much faith in the capability of the human brain and believe each individual is capable of greatness. Thus, I never give up on any student and trust that they too will be able to do or learn what I have.
As a graduate of the Department of Engineering at Vanderbilt University, I feel I am very qualified in tutoring Calculus 1 and 2. Not only have I taken the classes both in high school and during my time at Vanderbilt, the engineering curriculum reinforced these theories by integrating Calculus into nearly every core class that I took. My degree taught me h ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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 Network. I love tutoring all ages, and find that adults, while a bit harder to reach in the beginning are usually the most enjoyable to work with.
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 i ... read more

I enjoy teaching and challenging those who want to learn. I believe that repetition is the father of learning, and that much practice and study will lead to a promising outcome. If the student is having trouble grasping the concepts, further instructions may be necessary and example walk-throughs will be conducted to ensure that the student is properly qualified to tackle a similar problem.
I have been interested in science since high school when I took AP Biology as an elective course senior year. Since then, I have worked for the National Institutes of Health at Fort Deterick Maryland in the Gene Expressions Laboratory and the Laboratory of Molecular Technology. I enrolled in Shepherd University's Biochemistry program in the fall of 2006 and just graduated this may (2010). I tutored general chemistry and biology in college at the Shepherd's Academic Support Center (ASC). I h ... read more

I recently graduated from Cornell University with a BS in Chemical Engineering and am currently pursuing a BA in Mathematics at Hood College. This past year I was a teaching assistant for Statistics at Hood College in the Psychology department. I worked with a variety of students with very different backgrounds including those who do not consider themselves "math people" at all.
I have tutored many different kinds of students, adjusting my teaching style to see what works best for them. I am very patient and can explain things in more than one way. I try to see how the student learns and understands best so that I can adjust and we can make the most of our time. It can be very frustrating for the student to not understand immediately, but breaking down the problem into multiple doable steps can give the student a sense of accomplishment as well as hope to try another problem.

I teach by getting the learners to discover the subject matter. I believe in hands-on learning where applicable, encouraging curiosity and giving the learner the opportunity to make guided discoveries. I give assignments and quizzes to constantly evaluate the learners understanding of what has been taught, thus ensuring understanding of, and success in the subject matter.
After graduation from the University of Buea, which is the leading university in Cameroon,I taught physics, mathematics and additional mathematics for four years in both Secondary and High school from September 2003 to March 2007. It has been my passion to see students have a mastery of physics and mathematics at the secondary and high school levels.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love the art of teaching. I work with the student on an individual level, tailoring my methods to achieve maximum learning comprehension. Usually, I prefer to have the student figure things out for themselves using guided questions and logic. I feel that one of the most effective methods is, rather than lecture the student and provide the answer, I instead provide the basic materials of the problem and encourage them to figure things out progressively. I believe that anyone can learn if taught in the way that sits best with their learning style and thought processes. I hope to aid in creating a better future, laid foundationally by teachers that understand the way individual students learn.
