I have a very strong background in Math, Economics, Accounting, Chemistry, and Environmental Science as well as extensive experience in writing, Document Preparation, Quality control and Statistics. I have been a Teacher for over twenty years and have been working as a math and accounting tutor for five years. I enjoy sharing my education and experience as well as figuring out how each individual student learns and how to adapt my style to fit their needs. I am easy going but very patient but persistent in getting the understanding across. I have worked with and tutored all types from high school dropouts to Doctoral Candidates.

I am a licensed Social worker with tutoring experience in and out of college. I have the most experience in tutoring Algebra and other math. I have a student now that I am helping with AP English who has dyslexia. I enjoy watching her grammar skills increase and her overall understanding of the concepts develop. I am great with any age individual and have the patience it takes to work with any kind of student (special needs included). I believe that people learn the best when they understand the meaning and logic behind what they are learning. When a student can see a pattern develop they develop an understanding that can be universally applied to many different areas of study and life circumstances. Learning is different then memorizing. It is especially important to understand the concepts behind the subject matter when planning continue in a similar learning subject.

As a graduate from New Mexico Tech, I believe my education to be advanced and very useful. NMT has very high expectations for its students, and demands an obscene amount of drive and focus. The math department in particular, is very challenging; therefore, I feel that my hard work and achievements present much to offer any student. All of my prior tutoring experience has been volunteer work for family members and friends in various fields; mostly mathematics, but also some chemistry, GMAT preparation, and elementary grammar. Though I do not have any certified teaching experience, my education and volunteer work have been quite in depth. I enjoy helping others and believe that teaching is a constant learning experience for the teacher/ tutor as well as the student. If at any point I reach a topic that I have not used in some time, I am willing to purchase a textbook or topic material in o

I enjoy teaching young adults, watching "the light bulb go off" as they come to understand concepts that had been eluding them. Math is a subject that centers around understanding and applying a surprisingly modest number of concepts. As such, I focus on the concepts and their relationships, preferring to look at the concepts through varying problems from various domains, rather than through repetitive drill. Learning how to think logically and methodically is an essential skill I look to pass on to my students. During my career as a researcher in the field of software engineering, my work depended on mathematical thinking. I have spent considerable energy, from my time working toward my Bachelor's and Master's degrees in engineering and through my subsequent career, communicating ideas through writing, lecturing, tutoring, and creating and teaching courses.

Through out my experience tutoring a diverse group of kids, I have learned to love and appreciate the art of teaching. It’s important to understand the many differences and backgrounds in every child, only then, we can begin to understand their special needs. I do believe everyone can learn given the opportunity, and resources needed to flourish to their maximum potential. I also believe that as an educator, you must challenge them to a superior level, strive for excellence. It is our job as educators to ignite the spark of knowledge; it is our job to encourage them to go far beyond of what it is expected of them As a recent graduate from the University of New Mexico. I have earned two bachelor degrees, BS in Spanish and BS in Sociology, this two combined have allowed me to understand social sciences to a new level. As you can expect my grammatical skills have flourished due to the combi

After graduating from the University of Wisconsin- Eau Claire, my wife and I moved to South Korea and taught English. This opportunity allowed us to gain teaching experience and become absorbed in another culture. Upon completing our one year contract we then decided to move to Costa Rica and continue teaching English for six months. I am currently working on a Ph.D. at UNM and plan to become a professor. During my one year contract in South Korea I taught children of all ages, from 6 to 15. Working with children was very enjoyable and rewarding. My style of teaching is very upbeat and interactive. I also like to use different methods of teaching focusing on participation. I believe that children learn more if the class is lively and engaging. My goal is to make the class fun as well as educational. In Costa Rica I taught English to business professionals at several differe

I love to teach and work with children. I believe all children can learn. There is no best learning way for all the students. Your kids are special. I believe I can help your child find best way to get academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to teach both the knowledge and the method to learn. I want every student find the way he/she wants to go. I used to be an associated professor in China. In those three years, I taught general chemistry class. I come here two years ago, and become an graduate student in Chemistry department of UNM. I have been TA of Chemistry for two years and have lots of experience.

I love teaching students and to explore subjects with honesty, creativity, and comprehensive scope. I have never met anyone who could not learn and approach each student from an understanding of where they are, what they may have overlooked, and where they need to go. I strive to find the ideal example to help students visualize problems and to remove obstacles to their learning path. I believe the impact of one-on-one teaching leaves lasting positive experiences that are seldom matched with any other type of learning environment. I have tutored most of the Math and Science courses at Glendale Community College for four years, tutored troubled teens at the YWCA during the same time period, taught Algebra at Gerard Catholic High School for one year, and tutored around the valley for several additional years. My motivation is to be the best at what I do and to teach students self disc

I am convinced, partly because of my own experiences, that the current educational system best serves the needs of the average student. I also believe that it seldom addresses the needs of those students whose learning style is not a good fit with the one size fits all educational system. This may be for a wide variety of reasons, but the result is that the student is left without the needed skill set to compete and what’s worse, left with the message that they are responsible for "not getting it" and are inferior or stupid in some respect. I nearly flunked junior high pre-algebra, and was a mediocre math student in high school. I eventually managed to teach myself, and have subsequently scored 800 on the math section of the GRE and was one of about 50/15000 to score a perfect 15 on the quantitative section of the medical college admission test (MCAT). What is wrong with this picture? My

I earned a BS in Business (CIS) with a cumulative 3.4 GPA and membership in two National Honor Societies. Courses included Chemistry, many Social Studies classes, and calculus-based Chem Physics. Briefly I taught Science and Math at a private high school in Albuquerque and did well, but quit because of a medical problem with my leg. After active duty in the Navy, I earned 8 credit hours in English through the CLEP test, and didn't take Freshman English. I had always made straight 'A's in English, and had excellent grammar. My courses included Writing Poetry & Fiction, Shakespeare, Business Communications, and Technical Writing; also Latin, Spanish, and German (which increased my knowledge and awareness of grammatical structure) I have done much sales and customer service work, as well as teaching. I think listening is key, recognizing the humanity in each person, and relating t

I am a very patient teacher and truly enjoy finding the best ways to explain difficult concepts in a simple manner. I am also very easy-going and considerate in my methods. If my students finds one way of explaining a concept difficult to understand, I always try to think of another way to explain it. I feel that, if given time and practice, anyone can learn anything, and I'm willing to invest that time into somebody if they're willing to take the time to learn and practice. As a student at Eastern New Mexico University, I enjoyed taking time to help my fellow students in their math studies. This enjoyment eventually drove to get a job as a tutor during my last 2 years in college. I worked with college students of all ages and worked on developing power points and study guides to help my students succeed in their classes. I've also had experience helping younger high schoolers in t

Through my undergraduate degree in civil engineering, my graduate work focusing on physical geology and applications of remote sensing and my recent fellowship training at Columbia University’s interdisciplinary Earth Institute, I have gained a broad understanding of earth science. I have achieved expertise in and I am eager to teach in fields as diverse as mathematics, physical science, civil engineering and geosciences. As both an undergraduate and graduate student I assisted with laboratory and lecture classes addressing earth systems where data analysis and hypothesis testing were primary learning objectives. The active, hands-on nature of these classes was known to attract majors. Indeed, two of these majors subsequently became my advisees. I mentored their senior theses, and both students have gone on to post-graduate training in the sciences. This longstanding commitment to learni

One of the most rewarding aspects about guiding students is finding the way they channel their thoughts and using it to their advantage. As a result of being ADHD, I am sympathetic to the struggles many students have to concentrate and as a result I am a tenacious but patient teacher, always determined to make the lesson fun and interesting as well as educational. I choose to live by example, just as my favorite teachers and professors did with me. I give children respect, boost their confidence and make them love what they are doing. Even though I have found my approach to be successful, I am always looking for new ways to engage the mind of my student. As a tutor, I provide goals for the children. I find that once the students have goals, they are much more excited about reaching them, and do reach them with my help. Learning is fun and exciting, just as it should be! Thanks to a f
