I really enjoy working with all people, I understand that everyone has a learning style, but above all you have to work hard to get to the next level. I am patient, thoughtful and willing to offer my support. I think it's important to summarize the important parts of the subject and then have the student remember them and focus on how to manipulate those parts into useful problem solving skills. I know I can make a great instructor for you. As a Cornell graduate of Biomedical Engineering, I was able to learn about a variety of subjects and gain a better understanding of multiple types of math and science. As an instructor for the Cornell ballroom dance team, I have taught classes for two years in addition to my tutoring in math and science for another two years. I have written up multiple laboratory reports and research papers as well as a final Master's project. My students enjoy

Throughout my education I've had a drive to teach. While earning my BS in chemistry with minor in biology I assisted many fellow students by acting as both a laboratory assistant and as a tutor in general chemistry and organic chemistry. My teaching experience continued into my post-graduate career where I acted as a Teaching Assistant primarily responsible for teaching 2 to 3 organic chemistry laboratory sections per semester. Because of my course of education as well as my continuous participation in teaching I've had ample experience helping prepare students for exams as well as writing research papers and laboratory reports. During my undergraduate career I discovered my passion for teaching. I also discovered that being an educator in the sciences is particularly tricky because it deals with some of the most abstract information with seemingly little real world application. Most peo

I have experience across the boards. I have taught students from the first grade level to the college level. I have earned a BA and an MA, both in Physics with a focus on education, but opted to take all of my electives in Math and Earth Science, which has enabled me to have a further reaching range of abilities. I did a minor in history for the purpose of understanding not only the science of my work, but also where the science came from. This has enabled me to not just teach science and math but also teach it through a historical lens that gives students perspective on why their learning is relevant. I like children to learn through exploring. This is not to say that I do not teach, but I plan lessons in a way that allows students to learn at their own pace. I feel like if I can put together a lesson that gives children a motivation to learn, they will learn on a deeper level tha

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 philosophy in my teaching and tutoring experiences. 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 indi

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 Calculus, Multivariable Calculus, Linear Algebra, Differential Equations, Physics of Waves and Optics, and the Mechanics of Solids. These classes have led me to a good solid education in maths and sciences, and my previous tutoring experience with Tutor.com allowed me to develop good teaching skills. I have tutored students from elementary school all the way through college and have been able to help all levels to understand their subject matter with relative ease. 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

My teaching style is a combination of techniques I found successful during my educational studies. First, I believe the teacher has to be passionate and have a true love for what he or she is doing; this is passion, or lack thereof, is evident when interacting with a student. Second, patience is of upmost importance. In my experience, nothing inhibits learning as much as a rushed or pressured feeling when one is trying to learn. Finally, it is critical to find a way for the student to relate to the material in a way they understand. Each person is different and the teaching style should reflect that; not everyone fits nicely into a cookie cut template of learning. Every person has the potential to learn anything as long as the opportunity is fairly presented – as a parent of a special needs child, this is something I know very well. I have had many years of educational instructing in a c

I enjoy teaching one on one more then in a group class setting and I do enjoy teaching individual more then in a group setting. I do wish to teach "Chinese" as a personal language when I retire in the future if we don't have SS since I am a baby boomer (hope this is not true) Born as a Chinese national and I speak fluent Chinese Mandarin language and I studied Business in Accounting and graduated from SUNY Brockport in 1990 and my mathematical course I always get "A" on my grade (I even get 105 on my test score, believe it or not) and I still love math. Therefore I can tutoring not only business in Accounting and also Math or language in Chinese.

I have always enjoyed teaching people in a one-on-one or small group environment. It allows me to tailor my teaching style to fit the individual student or group I’m working with. I enjoy using creative methods to teach a topic, including creating multiple ways to explain a term or concept and providing analogies to concepts that are familiar to the student. All people comprehend concepts in different ways and at varying speeds. Thus as I teach a concept I am constantly looking for signs of understanding, and then stop and reinforce a concept when it is apparent that the student does not understand. Teaching is a very fluid process, one that requires acute understanding of the challenges students face when learning, and an active process that requires energy and intelligence on the part of the teacher, qualities I believe I possess.

I love to teach by arousing the thinking faculty of my students with questions that makes them think in the line of the subject. Use of illustrations, applying the subject being discussed to real life situations, one that students can relate with, is a very handy tool for me and has worked very well over the years. Thorough explanation, an encompassing summary and point tags on core areas of the subject are vital tools in making subject stick to the mind of students. Teaching is a natural talent for me. I started teaching Mathematics in 2000, just after graduating high school in 1999. I was a class teacher for Gideon Primary School, Lagos Nigeria and taught Mathematics on the secondary level in Gideon Comprehensive High School, same location.

As a Financial Analyst at Fortune 500 equivalent company in the Republic of Zambia, I not only combined my mathematics expertise with strategy principles to execute my functions, but also I secured a part-time job as a mathematics tutor at a near-by university. I excelled at tutoring students in calculus, geometry, trigonometry, statistics, and algebra – the subjects that I understand so well as a result of my majors in Engineering Economics and Mathematics in college. During the two years I tutored, students in my classes had the highest overall passing grades in mathematics, and most of them reported mathematics as the one class they liked the most and found to be the easiest in the exams. Most recently, as an MBA student at the Simon Graduate School of Business Administration, University of Rochester, I occasionally coached first-year MBA students in Statistics, Mathematics and Fina
