SAT - Math is one of my top subjects! SAT Math is one of my specialties. Math always came to me, but this test was not the most difficult to study for. I Scored a 770 on the math section, and 790 on the SAT II Math I Subject Test. I know the test inside and out and am very good at helping people to learn the strategies to understand what the question is asking and answer it in a timely maner.

Teaching new concepts, practice applying the new material, review, and more practice of the material to solidify the concepts.
I have helped my classmates and have had one official student as of this summer. However, I have learned how to explain concepts so that students dont just memorize, they will gain a thought process and applicable knowledge that will enable them to solve even the most complex problems. Having this mentality of preparation and success will being them to reach their goals.

Martin Luther King Jr. stated that, "the function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence, plus character-that is the goal of education." I agree with this statement and will not only teach my students secondary mathematics, but also how to be successful in the real world through problem solving and active inquiry. To facilitate this learning, I will create an environment that allows all learners to grow to their highest potential. Every student has unique skills and attributes to bring to the table and it is my job to bring out these abilities in my students so they not only have the opportunity to learn, but also the desire to learn.
I have had the opportunity to work with all grade levels in a variety of disciplines; however I have had the most experience at the secondary level and am certified to teach 7th-12th grade mathemati ... read more

At my Ivy League college, we were taught not just facts, but how to learn. This invaluable skill has stood me well and put me in an excellent position to teach. I have continued to love to learn and retained my strengths in both critical reading and in math. I recently took the SAT to demonstrate my qualification for tutoring and scored in the 98th percentile. I have always had a knack for taking a complicated topic and being able to explain it simply and clearly. I can tell when students do not completely understand – despite what they may say – and will stick with a concept until it is demonstrably clear. I have tutored colleagues in computer programs, taught an adult class at the community college and tutored students in English as a Second Language and in math.
I believe teaching is more than just showing how to solve a problem, but is helping the student to discover the “big ... read more

I recently graduated from Duke University with a bachelor’s degree in Chemistry and a minor in Biology. I excelled in all my courses during my four years there, and as a result I will be attending a very well ranked dental school in the fall. I have a very strong science background, and have taken many courses in Chemistry, Biology, and Physics. I did well in all of these courses, even in a competitive environment. I have tutored Duke students in General Chemistry for the past three years, and their feedback has always been positive.
I have tutored at the college level for three years, mainly because I enjoy doing so. I take pride in helping others understand concepts and do better in school. I'm very easy going during tutoring sessions, and open to students asking questions until they understand the information. I take multiple approaches to explaining concepts if students ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Over the past year, I have tried to extend my ability to share my love and appreciation of English and literature with others. As an English/Communications major, I am very knowledgable in a variety of subjects including grammar, writing composition and reading comprehension. Last year, as President of the Writers Forum, we spent several months tutoring as part of an after school program where we helped children in Baltimore write.
For writing, usually I conduct some exercises. The level of the critique and what to say depends heavily on the age of the student. For grammar, I would either find or create my own practice materials and we could go over whatever is necessary until I've decided that the student is making improvements or the student has succeeded.

I realize the importance a child’s academic instruction plays in their future. I am well prepared, seeing as I have a B.A in English, to provide my students with a concrete and enticing curriculum. I have witnessed and engaged in remarkable teaching experiences. I have had the opportunity to function in a variety of educational settings, in which I learned various ways to create an energizing and productive learning environment that will promote a genuine interest in English and all of its wondrous offerings. All of my principals, department heads, and other members of the faculty have recognized that I have created constructive changes in students’ academic and overall attitudes and performance.

More About This Tutor...

When I was senior high school student taking AP Biology, I tutored a freshman student and helped bring up her scores for her final exam. During my time studying at the New College of Florida, Florida's honors college, I took two semesters of a class in which I prepared and taught elementary, middle, and high school students various topics in science. As a condition of obtaining my bachelors degree for the honors program, I wrote a thesis entitled, "Photorespiration: A Wasteful Relic, or a Potentially Useful Metabolic Tool?". Additionally, I have learned extensive verbal and grammatical skills from writing research papers and studying Latin.
In order to comprehend a new concept, I believe that the student needs to view new material in a context that they can digest. I understand that different people have varying methods of comprehension, and I will work to find the best way to rela ... read more

I have been Involved in the teaching and tutoring of academic subjects for the past 6 years of my life. I have a true passion for instilling the same love for education that I possess in my students. I have worked in about 9 different educational, tutoring, or mentoring facilities both before and after I graduated with my biology teaching certificate. I have used these experiences to not only develop my teaching strategies but to truly understand what makes a student want to learn. I have learned that constantly showing a student that learning IS fun will increase their will to do work and be successful.
Through my teaching experience I have found it necessary to differentiate my teaching styles in order to be an effective teacher. Most often than not I have found that being a facilitator rather than a dictator is most beneficial to learning. I have learned that if st ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is fueled by my personal enthusiasm for academics. For instance, my passion for math and science embodies how I approach the world. I think of life on a molecular level. In other words, where many get frustrated with complex theories as they become increasingly abstract, I can easily visualize the intangible and relay concepts in more graspable terms that most teachers and textbooks cannot provide. I bring humor and light-heartedness to abstract subject matter, thus making critical-thinking less critical and just thought. Having conversations about how science informs the world is an important part of my livelihood. Furthermore, rather than conversing with colleagues, sharing my knowledge with those who have difficulty understanding subjects where I excel, brings me such gratification. Knowing that I have helped someone else understand an aspect of the world even just a ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and I am very interested in helping children/young adults better their lives by achieving their goals academically. I consider myself to be very in-tune with the mindset of children and employ various tricks of the trade to engage them in learning. I am very proud of the students I teach and I strive to help them better their own lives. A very important aspect of my teaching style is to help the children help themselves. Anyone can give them the answers, but I consider giving them the skills to find answers when I'm not there helping them a more important goal.
As a student in a professional college I am very focused on learning and I have gained many skills and useful tips for studying. As a mentor with a program that my college hosts, I teach inner city 3rd grade students about science and math and reading. The purpose of the program is to encourage them to stay i ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a graduate from the State University of New York at Albany, I am driven to achieve the highest level of excellence in education especially in the following generations. I have received a BA in Chemistry and Pre-Med. These degrees have enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of science, math, and english. In addition, I have learned extensive health and grammatical skills due to writing research papers and laboratory reports, along with essays in many various areas of study. During the last three years I have tutored students in English, Mathematics, and Science.
The best teaching style in my opinion, explains how to research, plan and write essays, gives students time to practice these skills in class, and ensures students get feedback on how well they have done on each sub-skill. Students learn skills by using them in a realistic, subject-specific context, and in a ... read more

As a recent student, I am very familiar with what it feels like to be in the position a lot of the students are in right now. At the same time, I understand the best method about how to approach understanding the material in the easiest manner possible. The key is patience and practice. I firmly believe the best way to teach is to attempt many examples, rather than strictly lecture. If a student can see the pattern inherent in many of these problems, it makes understanding the initial concepts much easier. My main goal is not solely to have these students enjoy my tutoring, but to be able to provide a fun atmosphere in which they can effectively learn the material and gain an appreciation and excitement for the subject material.
