I am a Mechanical Engineer / Project Design Engineer for a renowned company in the automotive branch with experience in tutoring Math for all grades. My main goal is to demystify Mathematical problems by using real life examples that students can understand, so as to help them grasp and visualize concepts that are difficult to comprehend. Based on the experience gathered during my College years where I enjoyed tutoring friends and classmates in many of my courses such as Mechanics, Fluid dynamics, Physics, Thermodynamics as well as Math, I am also great at adjusting my teaching approach based on you or your child's learning needs.

Although a senior about 20 credits from my BS, I know I am qualified for this job. My passion for Chemistry rubs off on those around me. With a near 4.0 GPA, I always earn the top score in my class, only once did I get less than perfect on a Science test, a 99%. Students began asking for help. From my first Science course, I helped many students drastically improve their grades. Professors gave my name out to students and I have taught many each term. When my Prof. was going to miss class she asked me to teach instead. My lab reports were always perfect; the Prof. copied them for future classes. I earned the only student research grant. Researching a method to detect pathogen DNA; my work continues to be published. I wanted to excite others as Chemistry had excited me. I teach the material and why it is so exciting. My style adapts to that specific student’s strengths, weaknesses an

I believe in connections. Making connections between math and science, or the subject and a students experience are my way of developing an interest in learning. Everyone can learn, if they have the desire. My job is cultivate that desire. I taught an Earth Science lab my last semester. I am a substitute teacher now. I tutor middle school students two nights a week.

I believe strongly in providing children an opportunity to learn material in a way that will resonate with them personally. Throughout my education leading to a dual Master's Degree I have been able to learn a wealth of information about tailoring information to meet individual learning styles. I have experience in a variety of subject areas such as: math, statistics, reading, writing, social sciences (psychology, sociology, political science). Additionally, I have provided private lessons for multiple students that play brass instruments. I love working with all children, and all age groups. I am here to help find a unique way to present the material to your child to help them understand it in language that they can understand. I am patient, easy going and considerate. My overall goal is to help young students realize their potential, and instill a love of learning.

As a special education teacher, I worked with students with learning and emotional disabilities, ADHD, autism, and cognitive impairments in grades K-12. I was responsible for modifying and presenting curriculum across all subject areas. I began tutoring as an undergraduate, providing assistance in psychology and writing courses, as well as teaching group classes and providing individual tutoring for SAT and GRE preparation. Over the past 7 years, I have worked with students as young as 3, providing early intervention for communication delays, and with students in K-12 and beyond. I have most recently tutored students in basic reading skills, middle school math, algebra, geometry, and HS level biology, English, and history, as well as provided test preparation tutoring for the SAT, ACT, and GRE. In the context of tutoring students in their current subjects, I have also assisted stude

My career as an educator began when I started tutoring during high school. At a tutoring agency, I provided personal and small group tutoring for children ages 4-15 in math and reading. When I decided to pursue a degree in education, I gained experience by volunteering at summer school programs. I worked with diverse groups of children in first and fourth grade, in all subject areas. While completing my education courses, I student taught in suburban and semi-urban schools. Through my experiences, I learned how to approach one subject from many different angles in order to best suit the learner. I taught kindergarten, second and third grade in all subject areas. Within my elementary education degree, I specialized in mathematics and social studies, and thus have a strong understanding of teaching concepts in both areas. I'm also certified to teach math and social studies at the middle

I attempt to determine the best way to provide the information based on the manner in which you want to learn it. If you want multiple examples, I can provide them for you; if you want to be walked through the theoretical background and not have numerous problems, I can do that as well. I want to provide the information in the way easiest for you to learn it, rather than teaching you in a standard way. I have earned my bachelors and master of science degree in Biostatistics, and recently completed my PhD in Epidemiology, a field that is heavily reliant on statistical methods. Statistics is theoretically based on mathematics, which has therefore been a strong component of my education. Since high school, I have tutored students in elementary, middle, and high school, as well as community college, undergraduates and graduate students. I have instructed and served as a teaching assis

I believe that many students do not know how to study, and are unsure of where to begin. This is especially true for students entering college, or high school, who never really had to study before. As a tutor, it is my job to help the student break down the material into manageable parts and teach them to identify what is important, and how to get organized. The role of a tutor is to not give you the answers, but to help you get the answers on your own. I can show you how to problem solve, and help with test stress. I am available most evenings, and anytime on the weekends. I am also a member of the International Tutoring Association, and feel free to view my profile on LinkedIn at: http://www.linkedin.com/in/margaretholda I graduated from MSU in 2001 with a degree in Int'l Relations and Business.

I have a passion for teaching subjects that I thoroughly enjoy. My goal is to convey a love for my subject to the student by their experiencing success and offering the “why” as well as the “how” to develop a deeper understanding. I encourage a more relaxed atmosphere and welcome student responses with a healthy bit of give and take. Over fifteen years of working with four and five year olds gives me a unique perspective that allows me to present information in an interesting simple way that can be understood by the student. During my secondary teaching experience I have taught all levels of math from General Math to Calculus. I have demonstrated the ability to motivate and work effectively with students and administration demonstrating both flexibility and a willingness to take on additional responsibilities. I have been committed to the highest levels of professional and personal

As a current medical student, I have an extensive background in Biology as well as Chemistry. Graduating summa cum laude with a B.S. in Microbiology and a B.A. in Economics, I am also experienced in both Mathematics and Writing. Over the last four years, I have taught classes and tutored students in various subjects including Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Economics, and Mathematics. Whether I am working or just helping a friend in their studies, I am truly passionate about teaching. I adhere to an interactive style of teaching, enabling the student to remain engaged during the session. I guide the students by asking questions that lead them to reach a solution on their own. I encourage students to try their best and let them know the importance of working hard to achieve their personal goals. I am flexible to fit the learning styles of different students.

My teaching style is participatory. I like to ask questions of the student and have them verbalize what they know. This gives me the opportunity to identify possible gaps in their knowledge and to fill in those gaps. I also try to relate covered material to historical events. For instance, when talking about the importance of analytical chemistry, I like to talk about the Marsh test which was developed in the 1830’s as a definitive reaction for arsenic poisoning. In like manner, I like to relate covered material to the personal experiences of the student. Illustrative examples that I have used are the importance of distillation to the alcoholic beverage and petroleum industries, along with how companies like McDonald’s would employ chemists skilled in flavors and fragrances (i.e., flavorists). All in all, I try to make science and mathematics fun and stimulating, as well as informati
