Pre-Calculus Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Sparta, NC

With over 35 years experience teaching math, I have successfully taught students from third grade through college calculus. I enjoy math, and my students are able to understand it in a one-to-one teaching environment. During this time of closed schools, it is difficult for students to understand and adapt to this new way of learning. Many teachers are overwhelmed as they had to change their teaching methods with just a couple of months remaining in the school year. I have been teaching online classes at Forsyth Tech. for some time. Transfering this experience to one-on-one tutoring gives me the opportunity to help students that want to end the school year successfully. Let me help you improve your understanding with one-on-one tutoring. I try to explain concepts by explaining the methods behind them. Once a student understands the concepts, it is easier for them to apply them to othe

I just got back from Texas, after spending a semester in engineering school at the University of Texas at Arlington. Although my work experience is in retail, I feel that my knowledge can be used in tutoring. I enjoy helping people, even if it's just fixing a computer or caring for a friend's animals. One on one or group settings are best.

I graduated from Ronald Reagan High School with a 4.6 GPA in the second graduating class ('08), then went on the NC State University to study Engineering, where I jumped in between various Engineering programs for three years before simply deciding to take a break and truly figure out what I want to study. While this may deter several people from choosing me, I know that if you met me and/or any of my teachers from any grade level, they/I could certainly set the record straight, as I am quite a smart person, I have simply struggled with getting my life into an appropriate schedule. This is because between high school, my extra curriculars (captain of the drumline for three years and a captain of the lacrosse team for three years), and my parents, my life was completely structured for me, so what little free time I had was easy to budget, this is not the case in high school.

As a graduate with an engineering related BS degree from North Carolina State University, my background intense in the maths and sciences. After entering the workforce for a few years, I took a few classes in education to acquire my teaching license in comprehensive science at the secondary level. I have taught primarily chemistry and physical science for 3.5 years, but have also taught biology and earth science. With chemistry being so math driven, I am confident and competent at math subjects such as algebra and algebra II to name a few. I consider myself a facilitator of information more than a teacher. Students must be accountable for their own learning. In math and science, it is important that students know how to apply knowledge rather than merely memorize information. In that regard, it is my job to make sure that students understand the core concepts of the material and th

I have taught all ages and levels from preschool through community college. I have enjoyed working with students at all ability levels. I was a peer tutor as early as elementary school. I have taught mathematics at the elementary, middle school, high school, and community college levels. I have helped the top students excel and push ahead of the class, and helped the bottom students gain proficiency in the subject matter at hand. As a tutor I have met students and peers on their level and helped them learn material beyond performance on one assessment. I enjoy working with children and adults and helping them discover the resources they have within them. My job as a teacher is to put myself out of work by providing my students with all the tools they need to become proficient, motivated self-learners. I believe we learn best by doing. I try to help my students reach for the informat

I am a Winston-Salem State University graduate. I am a very passionate, loving and determined educator. I have a concentration in mathematics, which I consider to be one of my stronger subjects. The last three years of college I have tutored elementary level students in math and reading. I love working with kids and teaching is in my blood. I believe in multiple intelligences because all kids learn differently. I believe in order to be a good educator I must be passionate, patient,determined, caring and diverse. I would like to be someone that makes a lasting impact in kids life.

I received my undergraduate Bachelor's degree from Wake Forest in 2006 in Religion and Political Science. I worked at Sloan Academics for one year in Winston-Salem as a academic tutor for a 6th-grade girl in all subjects. In January of 2009 I started the Master's Education program at Salem College to gain both a license as well as a Master's to teach secondary Mathematics. I have taken several Math classes at Salem to be able to teach (Calculus I, II, and IV, Linear Algebra), as well as successfully tutored a Wake Forest student in Calculus I in the Fall of 2009. Also in the Fall of 2009 to the present I tutor a 6th-grade girl (different from Sloan) in Math. I hope to receive my license after the Spring 2010 semester. I have had several different interactions with children of all ages, spanning from elementary to college students, and have enjoyed every experience. I am excited about bec

Teaching and helping students is my true passion in life. It is what drives to me wake up each morning. The differences among students are what I value the most. Every student does not have the same learning style and that is what makes teaching interesting, because I’m always coming up with new and innovative ideas to enable the students to learn, think, and grow. I believe in teaching through experience because it fosters creativity, drive, and determination. I believe that every student can and will learn in their own way, and my one goal will always be to make an impact in a student’s life. I began tutoring during my sophomore year of college in the fall of 2006 when I was informed of a wonderful community service opportunity at a local church. The program was geared toward helping elementary, middle, and high school students test at or above grade level proficiency in mathemat

I believe that are students are learners. I believe that a tutor must figure out what student have trouble understanding in any subject. I first start by showing all the students all the step involve in solving any math or science problem. After learning where the student is having trouble, I instruct them on methods for studying the materials. I allows eneanged the student in guided practice when solving a problem. Then i have the student work the problem from start to finish. I check to make sure they solved the equation correctly. I point their mistake as well informed them of what they got right. I am currently working on a Master of Arts in Teching where I learned the importance of the constructivist approach to learning. I have a earned a Master of Science and Bachelor of Science in Chemistry from North Carolina Central University. I am currently tutoring college student at I

I have a strong background in computers. When I was in school, I loved writing and debugging programs. I worked in the Information Technology field for so many years. During that time, I conducted training sessions in the field for different support groups. I loved the opportunity to teach people the different subject I know and I enjoyed very much knowing that the material was easily understood. People could apply the knowledge immediately. Since I enjoy working with people so much, I want to help by tutoring subjects such as math and Spanish to anyone interested in learning. I started doing tutoring at the beginning of this year. I was tutoring a student in Chemistry and Math at the college level for about 2 months. I interviewed the student and found her needs and the curriculum she was taught in school. Based on that information, I tutored the student by explaining the materia

I am a Certified Public Accountant with over 30 years of accounting and finance experience. Although I have no formal teaching degree, I feel that I would be an excellent tutor. First, I have successfully trained many employees over the years. Second, my two sons, ages 21 and 19 graduated numbers 2 and 1 in their high school classes, respectively. Now, both are "straight A" students at the University of Tennessee. Here, I feel that I have lead by example. Finally, my personality, while being friendly and patient, is also that of a highly motivated "over achiever" who loves to help others. I feel that I offer the best of both worlds, a love of learning in an academic environment as well as real-life experience in the business world. I love teaching and helping others, especially children. I believe that there are "no stupid questions" and that all children can learn. I think that one of m

I believe that all students can learn if they are taught in a style that is most conducive to their learning style and motivations. To make that happen for each of my students, I try to assess their specific learning styles early on and get to know what drives them and their goals. By teaching in a method that is more individualized to them I grab their attention, keep it and impart skills and lessons quickly and easily. Also, by focusing on the positive habits and actions the students take, providing proper motivations, and having continued discussions about goals I am able to increase the student's self-motivation, confidence, and independence. My education experience spans many areas. I have taught in middle and high school classrooms, have tutored for public school programs, tutored at after school learning centers, tutored in church programs, and managed a learning center as the
