" I have been tutoring since high school, and have
excellent communication skills. Scientific concepts can be really
complex. I have a lot practical experience and an understanding of
the life sciences that is important for tackling the complex problems
and helping people see them in a simplified manner.
When I'm not a work, I enjoy hanging out with my friends and family,
collecting records, and taking walks with my dog.."

" I have worked in an elementary school, middle school and high school with entire classrooms as well as individuals. I like to build upon a student's existing knowledge and believe that you can never be too patient with a learner. Most of my students tell me that they think math is fun- when the understand it. My goal is for all my students to understand math well enough to also enjoy it!."

"I am the type of person who is always asking "why?" and "how?". Even in my free time, I am learning something. ^_^

"I try to help them develop a process, rather than just focusing on answers. If the student can fix the root of their problem, they don't come back with the same problem week after week. To use music as an example, something I do frequently, rather than just telling a student about a concept, I work with them until they can hear the same thing I'm hearing. Then they can work on it even if I'm not in the room.
I believe that all students are capable of learning and being successful."

"I've been tutoring and teaching math since high school, when my teachers occasionally gave the floor to me on topics that I had mastered, and where I also tutored incoming 8th graders to get them up to speed in algebra. I believe that all students have a kernel of mathematical ability that can be tapped. Too often we are taught that mathematical ability is rare and precious, when in fact it's quite common, if you know what to look for. I pride myself on being able to appreciate and foster whatever talent my students have, so that they can become stronger and more confident mathematically.." ...

"As a college graduate with a bachelor's degree in Natural Sciences and 2 years experience working in a research lab, and a medical school applicant, I understand in depth the subjects that I tutor, as well as my students, their needs, and motivation to learn. I love exploring new ways of presenting material to students and expanding their understanding of a difficult subject or concept. I am not satisfied with my performance until I see that a student fully grasps the material and can apply it in his or her academic future, long after our tutoring sessions.." ...

" As a very empathetic and caring person, I believe it is critical to understand the context of the students' situation and adapt the lessons or tutoring approaches accordingly. I feel confident in my skills to breakdown the steps of the learning process and from that develop a personalized journey with small steps or victories along the way to the ultimate goal. My tutoring experience began in high school with Spanish and ESL subjects. Throughout my collegiate career, I tutored many different subjects to an array of ages and cultural backgrounds. For two years, I collaborated with a team to create and taught ESL lessons to a group of eager ...

" Currently, I am a substitute in the Belton (MO) school district.
I try to present the math work in fun ways besides the 'here's a sheet of 10 problems to work on' presentation. If a student is more engaged in the teaching presentations, the motivation comes easier to the student to work on the given math questions. My wish is for students to find at least one concept of math they can enjoy and relate to the real world.
In my free time, I enjoy watching NFL football, playing soccer, and reading.."
