Math is important to everyone...so is music.

I find that mathematics instruction is greatly improved by visual aid. I found that my most effective teaching tools were the white board and marker rather than the computer or calculator (although those are useful as well). I have also been able to adapt my teaching style to the learning styles of my students, whether they enjoy learning math or not. As for the saxophone, I believe that throughout a musicians instruction, a good balance between fundamentals such as scales and technical exercises, and repertoire such as solos and duets, is very important.
During my sophomore year I started tutoring for the mathematics department, educating my peers in a wide variety of mathematical topics. This was a very enjoyable experience in which I took pride in my ability to instruct in mathematics such as calculus and statistics. During my junior year I started tutoring computer scien ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My desire to teach and tutor students in mathematics comes from my love of the subject. I have always enjoyed math and truly enjoy passing on my knowledge of math. I understand that many people do not share my passion for numbers but I work with my students to help them achieve a greater understanding and appreciation for mathematics. When I begin with a new student I like to spend a few minutes discussing the goals he or she has for our sessions. I prefer to work with the student one on one, where we can go step by step through the subject, taking extra time where needed and not dwelling on the areas already understood. It is my hope to teach my students how to learn math, not just teach them the math. In this way they are able to help themselves advance and reach their goals.
I recently graduated with BA of Mathematics from Carthage College, one of the top 10 colleges in th ... read more

I have recently graduated from Sun Prairie High School with a 3.95 and will be attending the University of Madison next year. I have taken Advanced Placement English this year and have recieved superior grades in that class. During the last 2 years I have tutored regular and special education students in English and Math
I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children have the capacity to learn if they are taught in a safe environment with a teacher that is willing to connect individually with the student. I am ready and willing to do whatever I can for the students I tutor and set them up on the path for success.

I enjoy helping students work through tough problems by allowing them to make mistakes and then rework the problem a couple of times the correct way. Since this is my area of expertise, I am able to come up with examples on the fly that will target the areas most troublesome to the student. Mathematics is a field that requires repetition but making that repetition as interesting as possible is a fun challenge. I do not wish to be a teacher by profession but I do enjoy helping individuals or small groups with science and mathematics.
I have formally tutored with Madison College on two occasions lasting a year. I was also Tutoring throughout my time at Edgewood on a drop in basis with any students that came to the math department and could not reach a professor. I have a BS in Mathematics and doing math at all levels is fun for me.

I constantly compare the perspective I get when I stand in front of a classroom with my own experience as a student. I find it rewarding when I see my students focused and it intrigues me how the dynamic of my lecture influences their performance. I have applied this style while teaching in engineering and in other tutoring in Spanish as a second language that I have done. I enjoy the most teaching to children because I like to experiment with different teaching approaches and examples to catch their attention and interest and make sure they will remember what I taught.
I'm a Mechanical Engineering graduate student at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. I’m fluent in English, Spanish and am conversant in German. I work as a Research and Teaching Assistant in the Engineering department and twice a year I lead a discussion section during a one-week course in Polymers for undergrads ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a recent graduate from the University of Wisconsin, Madison with a degree in Nutritional Sciences. This degree required excellent science and math skills to complete. I have taken math through Calc 2 and advanced science courses such as organic chemistry and genetics. I feel that I have a very solid background in math and science and could teach it well. Additionally, I tutored Spanish for 2 years while attending my first university, UW Fox Valley. I feel that I have a good knowledge of Spanish and could tutor any beginning or intermediate students.
I primarily teach through activities and ideas suited to meet each individual's need. Through the interpersonal contact and motivation I provide, I feel that I help the student to desire to improve their knowledge and perform better. Depending on the student, I can be an enthusiastic or a calm teacher. By taking courses suc ... read more

As an Purdue University student, the drive to pursue higher education has always been clear and important part of my growth. I am presently pursuing my BS in Environmental Engineering, which has permitted me the opportunity to gain understanding of advanced sciences and mathematics while instilling creativity and practicality. Not only have I enriched myself through the math and science sides, yet I truely enjoy writting and languages, which has enriched my education, as a balance between the differnt subjects was created, while writting not only essays but creative stories. Over the past couple years and through highschool I devoted part of my time tutoring different subjects, and languages to not only youth but my peers as we.
Growing up knowing that knowledge is power, it seemed as though anything was achievable. But as I began learning, I wondered why some things came easier ... read more

As a SPS member while attending UW-Whitewater I gave tutoring lessons to physics students who needed help i not only physics but also mathematics. I am able to communicate ideas well to others and help the understanding through an easy process.
I understand every person learns in different manners. Therefor, I have learned how to teach some students by use of examples and others by basic understanding and concepts of the idea. I encourage the thought process of the individual student so that they can learn their own ideas and therefor learn how to use these ideas on exams and future applications.
