More About This Tutor...

I have been tutoring college students for more than two years. My education equips me with a good understanding of economics and math. Through my undergraduate years, my written English skills improved a lot, which also made me confident to teach international students how to write English professionally. In my senior year, I was selected to solve economics-related questions for freshmen and sophomores. I also helped a professor in his help session for a linear algebra class. In my spare time, I provide academic assistance to students with questions in calculus and linear algebra. I enjoy interacting with people and helping them to achieve what they feel challenging. I am good at explaining complex concepts in simple terms and offer tips to apply analytical methods easily.

More About This Tutor...

My teaching style depends upon the learning preferences of the student, as I know each student has their own way of learning. Moreover, I also provide additional supplemental information and practice problems. I believe in learning not only the concepts of a subject, but also their real world applications. Furthermore, I believe the most important part of tutoring is making learning fun and providing students with confidence in the subject being tutored.
I have university teaching experience and tutoring students for 19 years in a variety of subjects for students in grades 1-12, as well as traditional and non-traditional Undergraduate and Graduate students. In addition to tutoring a variety of subjects, I also provide assistance with Master's theses and Ph.D. dissertations, specifically Statistical/Research Design Methodology and Statistical Analysis. I also have seven yea ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My teaching style consists of finding that unique style that will suit each individual student. Growing up, I noticed that it was very hard for certain students to grasp certain concepts because they were not engaged in the teaching method. It is no secret that everyone learns a certain way, and no two ways are ever the same. I believe that my patience, my calm demeanor, and habit of wanting to make learning something fun rather than a job has certainly helped me in my education. I also am a big proponent of having children set goals for themselves. Setting goals makes you work harder without feeling the pressure, and I've learned that once children reach that goal they will just want to go higher.
As a graduate of Indiana University and a current law student at the Ave Maria School of Law, I was and still very much am driven by a desire to learn and share that knowledge with those ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

One of the most favorable things that I love to do is helping children to gain more understanding in their academics. I have worked with different children in the past, and I have helped so many of them to understand that they can be the best in whatever they set out to do. I am very patient, tolerant and can help your child improve and get the best experience in learning.
Based on my degree which is BS in Finance and MS in Management Information Systems I have been able to touch so many learning experiences from this. The nature of my studies has helped me to gain more understanding in both the business aspect and sciences. It has also helped to improve my way of writing in presenting reports and research based work. In the past, I have tutored elementary candidate in Math, English and Sciences.

A Little Bit About Me...

Teaching Philosophy: Every student has equal opportunity to succeed if provided the necessary resources to motivate and guide him or her, regardless of status. It is my philosophy to tailor my instructions to the level of my students. It is my demeanor to patiently listen and respond to every student concerns or questions so that everyone benefit from the content of my instruction.
My degrees- BS in Math Sciences, MS in Statistics and MA in Economics, have provided my the solid background in mathematics that would benefit my prospective students. In the past, I've tutored math and science in extramural classes in Nigeria and also taught about 5 private students during my undergraduate days. I've had the opportunity to teach high school students during my national service. My teaching skills were further honed by my experience teaching graduate and undergraduate classes ( ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I attended Whitney Young High School and began tutoring while in school as a part of my volunteer service with the National Honor Society. I continued to teach while in college, and in fact, worked as a tutor part time. After college, I moved to Japan for one year and worked as an English teacher. When I returned to the United States, while attending law school, I was employed as a tutor for the LLM students.
I really love kids and I enjoy working with them. Throughout my years of experience, I have worked with students of all ages, from pre-school to adults. I understand that each person has their own unique style of learning, and I pride myself on being able to reach each student.

In 1991, I earned a dual Major BBA in Finance and Management Information Systems with honors. Concurrently with these degrees and taking 20+ credit hours per quarter, I was tutoring students in Financial Management, Algebra, and Economics. I have spent the past 15 years as an Entrepreneur while I also accomplished getting my MBA from the University of Chicago GSB/Booth School of Business in 2008. I have credible references that can attest to my personal tendency to teach.
I am inclined to teach at the high school or higher level in Finance and/or Small Business Management with an emphasis in Entrepreneurship and what that entails across all functions of a small business. My primary teaching style is to help the student understand the concepts rather than simply memorization. There are many ways to develop long-term conceptual understanding of difficult topics that I have learn ... read more

I have recently completed my student teaching experience as part of the masters and certification program at Roosevelt University. I entered the program already having a BS in Business Management from Miami University (OH). In July, I will receive my high school type 09 certificate to teach high school business, marketing, and computer education. I have experience volunteering as a tutor for students in elementary schools. I was a reading tutor for first graders when I was an undergrad at Miami University. For three years, I was a tutor at the Cabrini Green Tutoring Program, and worked with fourth - sixth grade students. I enjoyed my experience, and feel as though it has prepared me for my teaching career.
Most importantly, I love working with kids of all ages. Teaching is a passion of mine, which is why I made my recent career change. Tutors need to make sure to present content by ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

During the last eight years I have honed my teaching skills in a number of roles: tutoring math and language arts with America Reads, teaching English to elementary aged second language learners in France, working with learning disabled high schoolers as an English and U.S. government teacher, and training corporate clients in the use of software applications. In addition to these diverse experiences, my academic background in languages and business allows me to move confidently between subjects including Spanish, French, economics, math, English and the ACT & SAT exams.
I am a patient and positive teacher and implement multiple learning strategies to help each student best engage with the material based on his or her strengths. I enjoy working with learners of all ages and strive to make lessons meaningful and engaging to the individual.

I have already been a full-time teacher, including one year of high school Spanish and two years of Undergraduate Spanish at Indiana University.

More About This Tutor...

I am extremely patient and even-tempered, but also very focused and passionate about education. Communicating with the student and parents is vital to the tutoring process. It enables the understanding of goals, expectations, challenges and different learning styles. One of my personal strengths is organizing and clearly explaining complex material. This, along with completely answering questions and reinforcing the subject matter, I feel are the keys to learning and retaining knowledge. I believe that demonstrating a strong work ethic (through punctuality and preparedness) and an enthusiasm for academics has had a positive effect on my students in the past. I truly enjoy tutoring and try to make a difference in the life of each student.

I have both practical and conceptual understanding of mathematics as I have tutored kids and taught mathematics at a high school level. In addition, I have certifications in biology, chemistry, physics, and computer science. I like making connections among different subjects and providing practical examples as the situation warrants. I get a lot of satisfaction when students grasp a new concept. It makes my day!
My tutoring style is eclectic so I can reach each student with an unique insight that will help that student understand a concept or solve a problem. Once I get to know how a student thinks, I work with his/her strengths and try to compensate the student's weaknesses by working at his/her level and then bringing the student to a level where he/she needs to be.
