Socratic- I encourage questions, challenges, am willing and happy to look things up with students, know I do not know everything and enjoy revising my own knowledge as I go. Current knowledge changes continuously, and a day in which I learn something myself is a good one. Have tutored in multiple subjects (math, French, physics, MCAT, etc) since college. Served as adjunct faculty to Indiana School of Medicine and St Vincent Fam Med residency from 1993-2005. Have taught multiple paramedical subjects at National College in Indianapolis from 11/10- current. Got two english major daughters through HS math (through trig) and physics. (Hardest of all)

My style is relaxed, but focused, with a touch of humor to ease nerves. The first step is creating comfort and trust between the student and the tutor. To do this, when coaching Chemistry, I would have the student present a problem. Then, I'd say, well, let's figure this out together. And, truly, that is what we would do, step by step, by asking questions. What do we know? What do we need to figure out? Essentially showing them the thought process out loud, and involving them in obtaining the solution. This approach helps develop confidence. Repeating creates familiarity. Eventually, most students become confident enough to try one on their own, and my role becomes encourager, light-hearted and sincere. As an engineer and manager, training employees was an integral component of work performed throughout my ten-year professional career. I created systems and procedures, followe

As a graduate of a 'Public Ivy' institution, I have had a very well-rounded and intensive education. I earned two degrees from IU: a BA in Spanish and a BS in Biology and Chemistry. My experience involves subjects such as: Biology, Genetics, Biochemistry, Biotechnology, Chemistry (General and Organic), Analytical Chemistry, Physical Chemistry and Physics. I have had many students that were of the middle school, high school, and college levels. I also have some experience tutoring elementary-aged children. In all, I have between two and three years of experience. While I enjoy working with a younger population, I have had more experience with middle school, high school, and college students. I am very patient and easy-going, but I also expect that my students perform the tasks asked of them in the time given, as to further reach our goals. I have a descriptive way of teaching, but I am al

I graduated from Purdue University in May of 2007 with a BS degree in Applied Physics. The Applied portion means I took an additional 10 courses on top of the normal physics load. This has given me an in-site on math, physics, chemistry, computer programming, astronomy, and a bit about electronics. I know how to be thorough in my work with a high attention to detail. I have tutored in math, physics, and chemistry in the past. I approach teaching as a challenge; as I know not every student learns the same way. I first start by finding a common ground; a level of knowledge if you will. Essentially I find what they know and where do they need help. From there I like to find out something the student has an interest in; thus allowing me to relate subjects to something they find interesting. I also like to constantly reinforce what the student has learned with questions and examples.

I have peer tutoring experience with friends and class mates in college. I have have a BS in Biology and Pre-Dental Prep. I finished with a major GPA of 3.7 and overall GPA of 3.3. I am a huge fan of the sciences, and enjoy keeping up to date on that knowledge. I currently work in a sales role that requires me to call on "C" level executives in Indianapolis. While in college I took every opportunity to help friends and classmates. I enjoy understanding a subject and then helping another understand it as well. Everyone learns differently, and it takes relating each persons style to that subject. I feel most people enjoy learning as long as they can avoid becoming frustrated.

I began college as an engineering major but found myself missing the teaching/learning process. I finished college with two bachelor degrees, BA in Mathematics and BS in Secondary Education. I have recently completed my fifth year of teaching. I have taught and tutored students in the areas of algebra, calculus and physics. I believe many young men and women are missing strong male role models in their lives. Through my love for education, I strive to become that positive influence in their lives. I believe every student is capable of succeeding in our educational system if given the proper opportunities and motivation. It is my goal to find each student's learning needs and provide them with lessons that give them the opportunity to succeed.

Since I have been involved in several aspects of teaching, I have actively learned how to meet the needs of students. I have also seen that everyone learns differently and I have made it a priority to bridge the gap between the subject and the student's learning style. I am very passionate about learning and teaching, so I believe my excitement shows when I am helping someone learn. During my studies at the University of Iowa, I spent over a year acting as a teaching assistant for general chemistry lecture and lab. My responsibilities for lecture included reviewing material that the professor covered in class, developing homework, devising exams, and being available for students that needed extra help outside of class. For the lab portion I was responsible for setting up experiments, making sure all students were performing the experiments correctly, in addition to explaining the sci

My teaching style is to involve the student at his or her level of knowledge and to encourage them to succeed on a personal and professional level. I encourage competence and confidence at all levels of math and science working with the student to remove any math or science-phobic areas that they may have. Student rating and comments included 1) “Great teacher and great outside resources”, 2) “He is a very knowledgeable person in this field and always does his best to help all of us understand the chapter we are working on.”, and 3) “he is always willing to help everyone understand everything”. I have an MS in mathematics from Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology, a math-science-engineering college located in Terre Haute, IN. I have successfully tutored high school and college students from basic math through statistics. My high school students have improved their math qualifying exam

Through my experiences, I believe I am very capable of tutoring students of all ages in various academic subjects. I find it to be very important to provide guidance and encouragement throughout the learning process. I like to help students work out example problems similar to those they will find in their homework/exams, and give a detailed explanation of how to approach those problems with a high rate of success. I also like to be vocal and friendly with students to make the entire process a bit more laid back and enjoyable! As an undergraduate student, I performed very well in my classes and found that I was able to help many of my peers do well in these same classes. As a result, I decided to begin tutoring students in a challenging statistics course offered on campus. In college, I was a pre-medical and business student, so my range of knowledge is quite broad.

I enjoy teaching and working with individuals of all ages. I think that everyone can learn in their own way. I am patient and easy-going, but willing to work hard to get the job done. I believe in allowing students to find the way in which they learn best. I think that everyone can find success given the appropriate environment and encouragement. I strive to give each student that opportunity. As an undergraduate student, I strived to achieve academic excellence in a variety of subjects. I earned a bachelor’s degree with a major in History and a minor in French. Additionally, I studied required medical school prerequisites. Thus, I have experience in a variety of mathematics and science courses, including biology, general and organic chemistry, physics, calculus, and statistics. I have experience tutoring students in various math, science, and language courses.
