Pre-Calculus Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in West Lafayette, IN

I specifically enjoy helping with homework or test prep, where the student has specific problems to work through. Otherwise, I can explain basic concepts and give practice problems to work through. I really like to work through a lot of examples because without practice it can be difficult to apply. I will receive my bachelors degree in mathematics from Purdue University in May 2012; however I began my college career in math education so I have taken many methods/teaching courses. In the past I have done short-term tutoring for algebra/pre-algebra, geometry, high school calculus (calc 1), and algebra II. I have also tutored in English as a second language, specifically for native Spanish speakers.

For those preparing to take Calculus at the high school or college level, this course is a must. Unfortunately, many of the concepts are theoretical in nature and difficult to visualize. I can help make sense of this preparation course and prepare you for success at the next level. My approach to tutoring is built around my belief that all students can learn. Once a proper foundation is in place, my strategy involves helping students master mathematical concepts one step at a time. What is sometimes taught in the classroom as a "single step" may in reality be several steps all rolled into one. My approach involves taking these "single steps" and breaking them down so each student can fully understand what is required and why. As students better understand the reasons they are doing the things they are doing they will feel successful and that builds confidence. My goal is to help all of

I have been a certified teacher for the past 10 years. My rating has been highly effective for the last several years of evaluations, which means that not only do I know my content, but I know how to teach it to children (and adults). I have not only a degree in mathematics, but I also have earned advanced degrees in mathematics and in education. I have done tutoring on the side in the past, with my most recent experience being with a family for a 3-year stint. They believed in me so much that they had me help their daughter from her sophomore year of high school all the way through the end of her freshman year of college.

I graduated from Purdue University with a Civil Engineering degree in 2003. This degree required an extensive amount of Math and Science course work. I am currently employed in the consulting industry. My job requires me to do a lot of Public Education and Outreach- to make Engineering and complicated environmental issues understandable to the general public. I thouroughly enjoy this and love to make learning fun, interesting, and relatable to real world topics. I have experience tutoring for School on Wheels working with k-12 students on a variety of course work. I also tutored my little sister thorughout junior high and high school. She always tells me I was the only teacher that was patient enough to make math and science make sense to her. I never thought twice-I just truly want people to find learning math and science fun and interesting.

Hi, I am very much interested in tutoring job since from my childhood. So during my schooling i used to teach subjects to my younger brother. When i came to undergrad i used tutor for my juniors, for the subjects that i already learned, and have 1 year experience in giving GRE maths coaching.During my leisure time I used to teach basic computer and maths to high school students. From all the experiences of the students i tutored, i got the feedback that my teaching is worth and the students will definitely get benefited.

Teach through examples. I like to give examples by taking the student step by step to the solution. I then have the student work on his or her own to solve the problem providing additional support without giving the answer. If the correct solution cannot be found by the student, I will provide additional examples to help the student learn the concepts. I am currently enrolled in a Bachelor's Degree program at Purdue University Indianapolis seeking a degree in Mechanical Engineering Technology. I have completed a Motorsports Engineering/Technology Certificate where I studied courses that apply directly to the engineering behind racing. In addition to the numerous courses I have completed (coursework and grade details can be provided upon request), I have held various engineering roles as an intern at three different companies.

My teaching style is largely based around feedback received from students. I like to keep the students actively involved in the learning process by asking questions which serve to point them in the right direction. I try to put myself into the head of the student and understand the difficulties that he/she is facing in learning the material; I can then modify my approach based on what I think will be the most effective way to help the student overcome his/her difficulties in learning. I am very patient with students, and I strive to ensure that they have a deep and complete understanding of the material being taught. I have always had an interest in helping others learn new material. I have earned a BS and MS in Physics, and in the process of doing this I also did extensive coursework in Mathematics. My education has given me a thorough understanding of these two subjects. At Georgia T

I have been a community college adjunct professor for the past 5 years, teaching physics and physical science. I have also tutored in the College Learning Center where I have helped students individually and in small groups in the subjects of physics, astronomy, chemistry and math. I have a BS in Astronomy and am also a graduate of Purdue University with a Master's degree in Civil/Environmental Engineering. I believe that good teachers must truly like their subjects and also must care about whether or not their students really understand the material. They must find ways to motivate their students to learn and cultivate an interested in the subject. Students usually come to me very anxious and nervous about their physics, chemistry and math classes and I enjoy helping them overcome their anxiety and frustration about these difficult subjects. My goal is not to give answers, but rathe

Since I was in high school I have been teaching my sisters to get their way around with Science/Math/English. I realized my understanding more towards this subjects as I went teaching Students through out my Under graduation. I got admitted in Rochester Institute of Technology, NY as masters student along with teaching assistance. I was thrilled by my experience to teach undergraduate Students and got very good recommendation from students. I plan to continue in same profession for sometime. I can teach any age since I have experience with almost with age group of 5 yr to 30 yr. and I love my job

I tutored all through college. I have tutored one-on-one and small groups, and I have also been a TA and taught a few class periods. In addition i tutored a student in High School in several subjects. Most of my experience tutoring has been in math, physics and engineering, but I am also fluent in Spanish. My teaching style is helping the student arrive at the correct solution. In problem based courses this is usually done through asking the student what they think the next step should be and guiding them through the process of problem solving. Once they start to understand problem solving then they do not only improve in the course that I am tutoring them in but in their other courses as well. In a nutshell I try to help students learn how to learn.
