Nurturing Minds, Enriching Lives, and Building Self-Esteem

Motivation is important because it is the driving force to achieve personal success. Our role as teachers is to learn what motivate each student and then utilize that knowledge. We will continually use sincere praise and maintain high standards. Students will become engaged in their own learning evidenced in academic achievement.
The Achievement Centers, our after school tutorial/diagnostic clinic and before and after school care, is available for all ages and subjects. Tutoring and diagnostic testing is available after school, evenings (Monday – Friday) and Saturday mornings. The clinic is available year-round.

I used to volounteer to help my fellow students in sessions similar to tutor under supervision of the assistant professor (who holds a PhD degree in the subject). I was designated "dissector"; Those prepare for the "practical-lab." class for Anatomy. In Egyptian schools of medicine, they still use cadavers. Plastic models are gradually and partially taking over currently. Anyway, I was preferred because I use the "personal" language and the special aproach for each person.People around me call me the best "coach" because of my way of helping. I never give them a direct answer; Insetead, I give them either a "hint", a "reminder" or a "source" to find it out by themselves.
When it comes to starting a new subject, I start with questions to stimulate minds first. I start from the last step, example: How can we do elbow flexion? Then elbow joint constituents and their relation to each ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I earned a BS degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Washington, where I tutored for 2 years in the subjects of physics, calculus, differential equations, linear algebra, engineering mechanics and thermodynamics. In addition to my technical background, I studied English and liberal arts for 2 years and wrote fiction for my college magazine. Over the past 2 years I have worked as a volunteer tutor with students in Chicago ranging from 7th grade through college, teaching English, mathematics and science. I am an experienced engineer and technician, and can readily communicate the relevance of math and science to students at all levels. I am currently pursuing a graduate degree in engineering.
I am extremely patient and even-tempered, but also very focused and passionate about education. Communicating with the student and parents is vital to the tutoring process. It e ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have taken quite a few upper level courses that many students may find difficult in their collegiate years. I took General Chemistry I & II, Organic Chemistry I & II, College Physics I & II, Human Physiology, Microbiology, Biochemistry, Calculus I, Histology, General Biology, Pathophysiology, and Genetics to name a few. I come from a heavy science background and have been tutoring students since Junior year of high school. I have also completed several research projects at my undergraduate institution. I am willing to tutor college level courses because I have first-hand experience with them and know how frustrating times can be while in college.
I love teaching and imparting knowledge to others. I believe that if you understand a concept or idea, then you have the obligation to help another who is faltering on the way with the same concept. I believe in sharing knowledge and tha ... read more
