I typically begin with the homework assigned by the students teacher, as theses are most often the questions that appear on the tests. Reviewing the practice tests, if available, is also key, as many teachers use only slightly modified versions for the real test. For more advanced students, or those wishing to earn the highest marks, I will design extra problems, both conceptual and mathematic based, to continue to challenge them. This can include something a simple as more problems to work on, or as complex as having the student re-write previous problems to give them a chance to see all the different angles that the concept can be tested.
While pursuing my Ph.D. in chemistry, I not only taught required general chemistry labs and lectures at the university I attended, I also tutored both college and high school students in various fields of math and science. I have over 7 year ... read more

Specializing in science, math, and graphic design.

I graduated from the University of Kansas in 2010 and have worked for a large biological company in Kansas City, MO for the past four years. I have a broad background in science and mathematics as well as a wide range of knowledge in computing hardware and software. All things computers are a bit of a hobby of mine and I have taken several classes in programming, design, and other computer software programs such as Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign.

I enjoy presenting different viewpoints to my students in an attempt to help them develop a deeper understanding of the What, How, and Why of their studies. I am very patient and will work closely with your student to develop a learning plan that best fits their needs. Given appropriate 1-on-1 attention and direction beyond what is generally taught in the classroom, any child can meet their learning goals.
I have earned a BS in chemistry and an MBA, giving me extensive knowledge in Mathematics, Chemistry, and Business. While still in college for my BS, I offered tutoring services for Chemistry and Mathematics. Over the last 7 years working in the chemical manufacturing industry, I have served as a mentor to entry-level chemists and quality technicians.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have always been a student who enjoys math and science. At a young age I participated in math competitions and clubs. As I became older I transferred that youthful facility towards my college coursework. Learning mathematics and science through physics gave me a rigorous understanding of mathematics and science, subjects that can sometimes be confusing to students. In recent years I have been a very vocal enthusiast of math and physics, always seeking new demonstrations to share my enthusiasm and knowledge.
I believe that a genuine interest makes the strongest foundation for education. Creativity and a sense of serious play clan create interest in "boring" subjects. A handful of wonderful marbles will draw the attention of children and adults with simple beauty and color. They can also be used to demonstrate important lessons in physics and probability. In fact, math and science ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have been driven my entire life to assist others. I started working in the health care industry as a CNA, 1979. I then went to college and obtained my social work degrees. I worked in various settings to include nursing homes, mental health centers, prisons, adolescent group homes and currently home health care, 1987 to 2009. I am currently pursing additional nursing education, so I can combine my knowledge in the social work arena with nursing. Throughout my work history, I was responsible for educational components, with staff, families and communities. I also worked as an outreach instructor for a community college, teaching classes such as psychology to criminal justice.
I love working with people and seeing them succeed. I tend to meet the person at the level where they are at, then adapt the lessons to their learning style. I am very creative and strive to make lear ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I really enjoy teaching kinds. I like to demonstrate and explain to my students with some simple examples which can be visualized from the world. The reason I love teaching is because of I can communicate with my students and inspire them to think the idea behind the knowledge they have learned. I love teaching since I love kinds and feel excited when I work with energetic kinds.
I had 7 semesters teaching experience such as Physical chemistry(2 semester, UW-Madison;2 semester,Jilin University), General Chemistry(2 semesters, UW-Madison) and Succeed business in Excel(1 semester, Wisconsin School of Business).

I taught many different classes of Mathematics, some were individualized. I am patient, have a good sense of humor, and try to be kind to all people I work with and teach academic material to. I try to teach Mathematics in the best way for each student to learn the most from the instruction.
I have taught General Math in Junior High, Algebra and Geometry in Junior High and High School, Introduction to Mathematics, and three different Algebra courses in Junior College. I have learned a lot of techniques in teaching. I am currently teaching twenty hours a week to adults in High School Science, some Electives, and in Mathematics.

I have tutored Algebra through Calculus I and Elementary Statistics for the last three years. 1.5 years at both Wichita State University and Washburn University. I'm currently working on a second Bachelors degree in mathematics, but this time with an emphasis in Actuarial Science. This mixes calculus, algebra, and statistics, along with some business classes, into one, keeping them fresh in my mind.
I like starting with the given information and stepping through the processes to solve a problem. Reminding them of, or even showing them, the rules, properties, and examples in the book. I normally try to find the method that best works with each pupil, then highlight on that. I also make sure not to do the work for the student. I will sometimes come up with a similar problem to work through so they can see what's really going on within the problem.

Throughout my undergraduate career I have worked as a tutor for different levels of education. First, I tutored a College Algebra class, then I tutored 23 different first year students in a writing class, then I tutored at a middle school in a variety of subjects. All of this experience has taught me what it means to be a good tutor. Furthermore, as a Mathematics degree holder I have a strong knowledge of Calculus. In fact, when I start my PhD program in the fall I will be teaching Calculus at the University of Kansas. I believe that I can offer any student a different approach to the material so that he or she reach a point of understanding that is desired.
I believe the best style, especially for tutoring, is to practice a lot. However, what make my teaching style successful is that when a student of mine does not succeed I can go through step by step and explain where he o ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am a higher education professional who has come to believe that the best way to impact students is to return to teaching. I have a long-standing interest in the philosophy of teaching. I am particularly impressed by "deep learning," a movement that emphasizes critical thinking and inquiry at all levels of teaching. I also believe in high expectations combined with a strong support system, and a common sense approach to the subject matter. I have come to believe that much "teaching" is nothing more than giving students the illusion that they have learned something; this is evidenced by the "cram and regurgitate" approach often taken by students. In my view, this approach is not true teaching or true learning.
I have a PhD with a major in psychology and a minor in cell biology. I have taught college courses ranging from developmental math to graduate neuroscience. One of my re ... read more
