...my Bachelor's in Computer Science at the University of Texas. I spend a lot of my time learning, and most of my time in high school, was either studying for the 17 total AP exams I took, or studying for Academic UIL competitions and Science Bowl.

I assume responsibility that my student is learning and that my student is learning at higher and higher levels, in accordance with Bloom's Taxonomy. Knowledge, Comprehension, Application, Evaluation, Synthesis, Analysis are higher levels of learning that give the student tools to apply lessons into maturity. I have been very successful in tutoring ACT, SAT, ISEE, and GRE.... The Socratic method, asking open-ended questions, is an excellent strategy to get a student to talk. When the tutor...

...a rush when I would explain a concept that seemed foreign to them. I enjoyed these lunch periods so much that I had my first job at a mathematics tutoring center in my hometown. This led me to become involved with a program at my university where me and other fellow students travel to underprivileged schools and teach after school. Now I am hoping to expand my tutoring base to greaten the impact on students...

...make that mistake!". The teacher tries to hear what the student wants and then figures what to work on in order to get there. I've been both a student and teacher of guitar, and I try to take that teaching style into my tutoring. I never start by explaining material or by "simplifying" it (because that usually means repeating it again and again!) but by listening to the student and finding out exactly the student...

...goals are to become a surgeon and also conduct neuroscience research. I have been interested in the medical field since I was in 3rd grade, however my favorite subject has always been math.

...at Austin. I am majoring in Electrical and Computer Engineering. I love working with students because I want to help them grow, and I grow from them as well. I have tutored students before in elementary and middle school math. I believe that seeking help when needed is very important as one should be able to fully grasp concepts.

...rest of the year. I believe that understanding math is based on a student's skill ability. Just like a musical instrument or sport, it becomes a lot easier the more you practice it. Once you invest the time and gain understanding, math becomes fun like a puzzle! Outside of my math world, in my free time, I love to hang out with my lab, Cooper. I also enjoy reading, yoga, and swimming.

...Language Arts. I especially enjoy teaching Math because I deliver the subject content in a manner that students are frequently amazed at their ability to grasp what they previously believed to be difficult mathematical concepts.

My teaching style is a combination of coaching and cheer leading. Like a coach, I have high expectations for my students...

...Calculus concepts. I think Understanding of previous chapters is important in Physics because for example, Kinematics and Dynamics is used for all chapters. However, before taking Physics, finishing all Algebra and Geometry classes is strongly advised. Math is one of the most hated subjects, but if students follow the step correctly, it will become a lot smoother. Studying a topic in advance is probably helpful, so the students fell really confident at school. In Math,...

...find tutoring to be an extremely rewarding experience, both for the student and the tutor. Although it seems like the student is the only one learning, the tutor learns a great deal, as well. For instance, with each student I take on, I gain valuable experience that I can then use with another student. In addition, I love being able to assist a student in reaching their goals, be that a higher grade in a...

...I truly new that my dream of being in the classroom was about to be a reality. Seeing that look on a students face when they "get it", is one of the most rewarding feelings of being a teacher.
