I know how to help students learn mathematics.

I have lots of middle school experience and can use hand's-on conceptual models or straight forward drill work to help students understand. I am committed to working through concepts until my students get it.
Math teacher with science and English background and 13 years experience middle school, high school, and some college tutoring/teaching. I most recently taught pre-algebra and geometry and have taught algebra many times. I tutored through college at all levels. I like using simpler examples to introduce concepts and then help students build a strong understanding of harder skills.

A Little Bit About Me...

I customize my teaching style to my student. Everyone learns differently, so I teach each of my students differently. You will LEARN working with me.
I have taught for Utah State University for five years- Business Calculus and College Algebra as an Undergraduate. During that time I also tutored students from a wide variety of subject levels- kindergarten up to discrete mathematics. I also have a minor in Biology and taught Bioethics as an Undergraduate. I can help with study efforts for AP Biology or entry level Biology courses mostly. I have been playing piano since I was 6 years old and have took lessons for over 12 years as well as music lessons for many other instruments including percussion, violin, and voice. I love music and teaching piano.

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated from Mansfield University with a BS degree in Elementary Education with honors. I taught a temporary position in third grade (all subject areas), then was asked by the school superintendent to substitute teach in Junior and Senior High School, and Special Education classes, which I did for four more years before I had to move out-of-state for my ex-husband's job. I just spent the last 15 years working for the NYS Dept. of Corrections in many areas. I gained much experience in all aspects of office work, including computers, writing, people skills, reports, counseling, math,etc. I am currently retiring, and would like a part-time position for added income while I attend college part-time. I have always wanted to work individually with students (which is why I especially enjoyed Special Education students, and a hearing impaired student I worked with). I feel one-on -one ... read more

Teaching is my passion. I have earned a Bachelor’s degree in Art History with a second major in Italian and a Masters in Elementary Education with certification. These areas of study coupled with my extensive work background enable me to present challenged learners with a variety of solutions for academic struggles. I have spent many years training adults in the job force and I have three years experience in the elementary school grade levels.
I believe that encouraging, awakening curiosity and exploring all avenues of learning through hands on and academic exploration are the best tools for teaching. Finding a child’s learning style is crucial in order to address their academic needs. I am capable of providing the tools a child needs whether it is visual, verbal, kinetic, and intrapersonal or any other learning style. I feel it is very important to teach foundations and mast ... read more

I am a patient tutor and find great joy in helping others succeed. Most of my experience has been in teaching older students and young adults. However, I look forward to having the opportunity to work with younger children as well. I believe learning something new and challenging has much to do with one's attitude. Therefore, while teaching I do my very best to get the student excited and interested in the topic at hand.
I am a recent graduate of SUNY Potsdam. I received my bachelors degree in physics, and minored in mathematics. I also hold two associate degrees, one in Liberal Arts and another in Math & Science. I also spent time as a math & physics tutor at Corning Community College's math learning center. During my time there, I tutored students from algebra to calculus, and in elementary physics. These experiences have given me the ability to effectively tutor student ... read more

As an undergraduate, I spent nearly three years assisting groups of students with how to learn content for the historically difficult courses of College Chemistry I and II. I have my BS in Nuclear Medicine Technology, which permitted me to learn and acquire a great understanding in multiple areas. These areas include biology, anatomy, physiology, chemistry, algebra, statistics, and beginning and intermediate levels of Spanish . In February 2011, I will be finished my MBA in Healthcare Management, which has broadened my knowledge in business courses, such as economics, accounting, marketing and finance. Throughout my education, I have mastered grammatical skills with the many research papers, essays, and lab reports that I have written.
I would be happy to assist students with any courses necessary, as I am confident I can help them learn. I possess strong interpersonal skills which ... read more

While working toward my master’s degree at Potsdam, I taught a year-long graduate math course on Algebraic Number Theory which was well-attended by my peers and professors. I also tutored in SUNY Potsdam’s undergraduate mathematics lab for two years. I worked with many students in lower level math courses including Calculus and Probability and Statistics. I did my student teaching at Indian River High School where I was responsible for Pre-Calculus, Pre-Algebra and CLEP Calculus. I am now a New York State Certified high school math teacher. I also student taught at Case Middle School where I taught seventh and eighth grade students including many emotionally disturbed students.
Ever since high school I have very much enjoyed math, and with each new class, my appreciation for the subject grows. I would be an excellent tutor school because I would strive to help my students app ... read more

I believe anyone can learn and their quality of knowledge improved by finding a level and rapport that works for each individually. I work patiently, with humor, and at a pace with students that helps them to feel not only comfortable but appreciated for their efforts. I consider a key ingredient to be to first find what base levels of knowledge the student has before plunging into the subject at hand. Once this base has been assessed, then it is much easier to explain the principles and methods required to solve most any problems. I try to combine the characteristics of those I have worked with and educators in my past, that I found to be the easiest to learn from, and as well to not feel patronized or talked down to.
I retired from IBM February 2010 after 31 years and my new goal is to be an educator. I did custom circuit logic design for numerous products and conducted educ ... read more

Before I became a teacher in Philadelphia, I tutored in a private tutoring agency in Florida (where I was working on my undergraduate degree). That was my first experience with tutoring and I loved it. I liked being able to give individual attention to a student after he or she had spent all day in the classroom. I especially liked seeing a student's confidence increase after we worked together. For the last ten years, I was a classroom teacher for high school math in Philadelphia. During that time, I continued to find tutoring work – either through an agency or through private clients. Whether in the classroom or in a one-on-one session, I love to teach students.
It is easy to talk at a student about how to do a problem. But experience has shown me that this rarely works. Initially, it is important that I learn as much as I can about how the student is doing with the topic involve ... read more

I enjoy working with students individually, because it really is true that no two students learn in exactly the same way. I like to first see what my students know and then take corrective steps after establishing a base. I am patient and attempt to make learning fun for my students.
I recently obtained a Bachelors of Science in Biological and Environmental Engineering from Cornell University. As an engineer I have very strong analytical and problem solving skills. However, I also have very strong writing and grammatical skills which I have utilized not only in technical papers and reports, but also in various liberal studies courses I took throughout my undergraduate career.I have experience tutoring middle and high school aged students in language arts, mathematics, science, and social studies. As well as experience with college aged students in technical courses such Sustaina ... read more

I love teaching. Tutoring has been my favorite job so far, and although I was unable to continue working with Tutor.com due to time restrictions, I now am free to work with students and would like to tutor again. I am extremely patient with students, and my solid understanding of subject matter allows me to think of multiple ways in which I can help a student through a problem. Many people describe engineers as socially backwards, but I am extremely well-spoken and am great at communicating my ideas. I am a firm believer that anybody can grasp any concept they want as long as they are given time and guidance to reach their own understanding.
I have a tremendous amount of experience in many math and science classes. I have graduated from Cornell with As and high Bs in all of my general requirement math and science classes, including AP Chemistry, AP Biology, AP Physics 1,2, AP Calcu ... read more

I worked for the Princeton Review as well as various non-profit organizations such as Let's Get Ready! and The Door!, tutoring SAT math and verbal skills. Through these experiences, I've worked with underprivileged youth, and bilingual and ESL speakers. Most recently, I've worked as a teaching assistant for students struggling with college-level writing assignments, met with students one-on-one, and created individualized lesson plans for each student.
I am a magna cum laude graduate from an Ivy League university with several awards for scholarship, leadership, and research. Thus, I believe strongly in working hard not only for myself but for any of the children I teach. I am patient and pride myself on taking on students that require extra effort. I am kind, hardworking, and reliable - I believe that good SAT prep should be available to everyone and I try to live through that phil ... read more
