I have been tutoring math for 16+ years in courses that include basic math, pre-algebra, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, calculus, SAT/ACT/ASVAB/GRE/GED Prep, and Physics. In that time, I have worked with students ranging from elementary to college; and thus, truly understand what students require to understand math concepts and curriculum that they might initially struggle with. I have a Masters Degree in Electrical Engineering from Lamar University, and a love for what I do. I have much patience, great communication skills, and know how to reach out to people of all ages.

Interactive style which is meant to be fun, while increasing the likelihood that the information shared will be retained well beyond the time of the test. Extensive experience teaching toddlers to Resident Physicians with a common sense approach to learning and retaining information. I have the gift and ability to take the most complex subject matters and make then very understandable on virtually every level imaginable. I tutored a number of subject areas at the school age and undergraduate levels. The subject areas ranged from earth science, genetics, anatomy, physiology, psychology, cell biology, genetics, virology, immunology, organic chemistry to molecular biology. My uniqueness is my ability to simplify the most dense subject areas to virtually anyone. Prior to assisting students learn and retain subject matter I was a research assistant at the Yale University school of Medicine in

The teaching style that I have always promoted is to recognize that everyone learns on a different level and at a different pace. Therefore, a step by step instructor is needed and that instructor has to know how to meet that individual needs based on what they know not what I know. You find alot of college professors teach lessons based on what they know and their experience not realizing that the some students learn at different paces. I experienced this as both an undergraduate and graduate student but I had to go through it or drop the class. I have worked with all grade levrls as substitute school teacher with range from pre k to 12th grade and worked for a tutoring company while turoring an elementary student in math. I have a masters degree and while obtaining my degrees, I am very familiar with test preparation. I have taken basic computer classes in the past and I am more th

My teaching style is more the cooperative, reasonable method that prevents problems. Children need to have lots of praise and rewards for their work and efforts. It promotes growth and encouragement. My students will realize that they have to really pay attention to learn and get it. Their study skills will include organizing, focusing and stretching their thinking to higher levels. This way they can go as far as possible for them and reach the moon! I have a high level of qualifications and professionalism because of my extensive experience in Education, now over 25 years. My students were very important to me. I cared about them and their quality of Education. After becoming a Master Teacher, I was proud to represent the teachers of my state with Governor Cecil Andrus and statewide schoolboards. My students attained levels two to four and a half years above grade level on their

My passion for education blossomed while volunteering as a tutor with Somali refugee children in Pittsburgh, PA during college. I worked with families in their homes to develop English reading, writing, and speaking skills. After graduating with a B.A. in History and Political Science I joined Teach For America, where I taught first grade for two years and substitute taught pre-kindergarten through fifth grade for one year. A major focus while teaching first grade was developing literacy skills and instilling a love and enthusiasm for reading and writing in my students. The most important thing about my teaching style is that I believe every child can achieve academic excellence and can be interested in learning. I believe that it is up to me, as a teacher or a tutor, to engage the student(s). A huge part of this is being very transparent about where the student starts, what our goals ar

I am a student of history and believe that knowledge acquisition comes from interest and enthusiasm on the part of the learner. This interest comes from having an instructor who them selves is a learner. A partnership in the tasks being presented usually results in the student wanting to understand the information and making connections. To promote critical thinking I present the material in a global manner, allowing the learner to relate the information/skill to the real-world. Creative, innovative, and interesting lessons are my forte. I am experienced in providing a constructivist-based approach to knowledge acquisition. Hands-on lesson promote student involvement and increase the development of student responsibility towards their education. I have found that a cross-curriculum approach to the material being presented fosters true understanding and relevance.

For the past 7 years I have been teaching in a private school setting. Although classroom sizes are small, I am required to teach multiple subjects. This year, I taught 3-7 grade Latin, 5th and 7th grade social studies, 5th grade grammar and writing, and 5th grade reading. In the past I have also taugh two half years of 10th grade English. This setting requires flexibility and quick adaptability. My training as a social worker has also facilitated teaching children with dyslexia and behavioral issues. I am currently tutoring a student with dyxlexia in Latin. This experience has cultivated a sence of passion for one-on-one tutoring. I am very passionate about teaching and love children of all ages. I believe all children have a story which is vital to learning before good teaching can occur. I have discovered that different children require different approaches to learning, an

I love working with children; I began early on as a summer camp counselor for the Girl Scouts of America organization. Additionally I baby-sat throughout my undergraduate years and as mentioned child health became my focus during graduate school. I believe that learning is best achieved through tactile experiences that help the individual directly relate to the material being learned. I also believe that learning can be made fun and enjoyable for those willing to take the time to learn the needs of the individual. I hold a M.A. in medical anthropology as well as a B.A. in cultural anthropology. Throughout graduate school I worked as a teaching assistant and upon graduation I taught biological and cultural anthropology courses for the University of Memphis's department of anthropology. The focus area of my graduate studies was child health; this resulted in working on numerous projects wi

My teaching style is one that I obtained from two of my favorite college teachers whom I wished all others would duplicate themselves after. When I teach, I introduce myself and let others introduce themselves. I project an image of someone who is willing and able to assist and teach...someone who really does care (of which I have been told many times by former students). I let students know that if they have a question about anything, to please ask me. I am a detailed person and so I like to give detailed steps in achieving a desired outcome. I am positive minded and encourage my students on a positive level because how a person thinks is the direction they will be moving towards. In viewing my resume background, you will find that I hold a Ph.D., an MA, and a BBA along with a variety of Certifications or Licenses.

I just recently retired after 32 years of teaching. Thirty years were in public school and two years were in private school. I am very familiar with the testing,depth of knowledge and skills needed to be successful in school. I have felt very rewarded in knowing I have helped students to become successful learners. Most of my time has been spent teaching 1st-3rd grade students,although I have spent a few years teaching 4th and 5th grade students as well. I feel I am very adept at teaching foundational skills in both reading and math. I love teaching and working with all kinds of children. I feel my greatest strength is that I am a committed teacher who is anxious to help your child be successful at whatever subject I am teaching. I feel I am a flexible, hands-on teacher who believes that learning is a hands -on process that uses manipulatives,technology and sequential steps. I try to ad

I believe that teaching should be a collaborative process. The first step is to listen to the child and try to gain a sense of their own learning process. If you understand how the child learns, you will be better able to help him or her understand new concepts. I believe tutoring is invaluable in this regard, since it provides individual attention. Most classrooms are large, and ill-equipped to focus on each child's individual needs. My tutoring began in high school, when I tutored younger students in any subject, from Math to English. I learned to love tutoring. I enjoy helping people to realize their full potential. The most rewarding part of tutoring, in my opinion, is the look on the child's face when something finally makes sense. I have obtained a BBA from the University of Toledo. While in college, I spent a year as a tutor and mentor to younger students, and to help teach a Fre

My life has been filled with teaching and working with children. At the age of ninteen as a very young mother I felt a sense of duty in teaching my children how to achive higher than they can ever have imagined. I love to see the look of awe on their faces when they realize that they to can understand which ever subject that slips them. The rest is simple practice, practice, practice seals the deal. Then stride to the next hurdle. Each child has a different way of learning things. I find many times that a child can have to much or to little of something in their lives which interrupts their natural thought pattern. I believe if a child achieve good balance threw self disipiline that child will hold the key for successful learning. As an Graduate of Applied Science of Industrial Instrumentation.
