Education has defined much of my career for over a decade. I began this path in high school, assisting teachers in an elementary classroom and helping out other high school students with math or Spanish courses. Since then, I have expanded my acumen to a variety of ages and needs. I recently taught middle-school students in public speaking and current events seminars during the school year and algebra and pre-algebra during the summer, and I currently am an adjunct professor of philosophy and an online course facilitator at J. Sargeant Reynolds Community College. In my free time, I enjoy reading, particularly history or science books; following various sports, especially college basketball; and playing computer games and board games with my wife and friends. I also enjoy a good coffee shop, whether to get work done or to socialize.I am currently preparing to begin a Master's of Teaching program at VCU this fall and have continued to excel in the math and history courses I need to round out my teaching endorsements. Because my future career path focuses on teaching at the high school level, I have a preference for tutoring math (especially algebra through calculus) and history, along with writing and my current subject of philosophy. Besides my career motivations, I find that I stand out the most as a tutor in these areas because of my capability in clearly presenting complex material and my ability to grasp the diverse perspectives of my students.This ability to clarify complex ideas is important to tutoring, but what often gets overlooked is the other side of the equation: properly understanding the questions being asked. I have frequently encountered decent teachers who can effectively outline a subject in a lecture but who have trouble comprehending where their students might be confused, often because they are too removed from the way the students' brains work. The best teachers and tutors are those who not only can teach material clearly but who realize the points of confusion, which vary from student to student (and class to class). When I teach a subject, I prepare lessons, but I also understand the need to be adaptable, to adjust the lesson on the fly, as everyone learns differently and encounters difficulties at different stages. I developed this adaptability and this understanding of a multitude of perspectives from my diverse teaching experiences and also from my multidisciplinary educational background.I attained my Bachelor's degree from Xavier University, a Jesuit university in Cincinnati, Ohio, where I was enrolled in an interdisciplinary program in history, philosophy, and political science, which also involved a minor concentration in psychology. I then went on to Duquesne University in Pittsburgh, where I received a Master's degree in philosophy, a subject hospitable to my wide-ranging aptitude and curiosity. The diverse capabilities have reinforced both my competence and enthusiasm in a number of areas, which I bring to bear readily as a tutor. I can appreciate the perspective of a student strong in math who needs help with the verbal section of a standardized test or the viewpoint of a good writer who might be struggling in math courses, as I have immersed myself with a wide variety of subjects and consequently a wide variety of ways of thinking (not to mention diverse classmates). Though my comprehension of various subjects is important, my knack for relating to the way others think is likely my strongest feature as an educator.

I am a sophomore at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, majoring in music and computational biology. I have always had a passion for teaching, and have experience tutoring students in a wide range of grade levels and subjects throughout my years in middle school, high school, and my freshman year at MIT through the Academic Teaching Initiative. I hope to help, and have had past success in helping, students succeed at whatever their goals may be; improved grades, improved standardized test scores, even college admissions. I hope to not only aid students in reaching checkpoints, but also to give them the personal interest in their material and the curiosity to help them move forward and continue to succeed in the future. The majority of my experience lies in tutoring middle school and high school math, middle school science, and biology, but I am also qualified to tutor high school science, a large number of AP exams, the PSAT, and the ACT. Given my current status as an undergraduate student, I am also uniquely able to offer mentoring and advice to any student interested in student life in college and college admissions. More than anything, I strive to be an approachable and reliable tutor whom my students feel that they can be comfortable with, because it is when a student is aware that their teacher is on their side that they feel comfortable thinking and asking questions in the ways that will help them grow. In my free time, I study music and vocal pedagogy, practice makeup artistry, and watch films.

Teaching is the art of facilitating the academic and personal confidence of each student according to their individual strengths and goals.

Hello! My name is Haile and I am a current graduate student studying mental health counseling at Adler University. As you can see from my enclosed resume, I have worked as an Elementary School Teacher’s Assistant working with children from pre-school age through fifth grade. As a teacher's assistant, I gained valuable experience planning and organizing classroom activities as well as ensuring that older students received adequate tutoring and homework help. This position equipped me with the skills to think quickly on my feet and organize a group of students. My goal as a tutor is to empower a student's personal growth and knowledge in a particular subject. I aim to work with the student to meet their needs and promote academic achievement. I strive to set attainable goals with my student that we can measure together over time.

My teaching strategy is active, in-depth learning, which promotes the problem solving and collaborative learning capabilities of my students. The tools I use to implement my strategies are homework assignments, paper assignments, quizzes, and the think-pair-share technique.

Howdy! My name is Jonathan. I am a mathematics major at Texas A&M with a passion for education. I've been teaching for four years now, and there's never a day that I don't love what I do.

I plan for many exciting opportunities for the children to ensure they are stimulated and interested in what they are being taught. During lessons, I guarantee that my plans contain activities which cater to all learning styles."Those who know, do. Those that understand teach."Aristotle

I am a graduate from Ursinus College in Pennsylvania. I received my degrees in Psychology, Spanish, and Neuroscience. I have spent my time since college mentoring, tutoring, and promoting healthy lifestyles for high school students. I have enjoyed helping all age groups learn - from kids, to college students, to adults. I tutor a wide variety of subjects including math, Spanish, ESL, and test prep. I really enjoy tutoring geometry and algebra or SAT prep. My tutoring strengths include finding multiple ways to explain things for my students and giving real value to the learning process so that information can be retained. Outside of the academic world, I love to listen to and make music. I play volleyball, rugby, and soccer in my free time.

I love helping 6th and 7th grade students in Math. I believe that children are capable of becoming all that they are destined to become by having a village of caring individuals who provide support, love, structure and leadership in order to bring out their best qualities.

Hello! I am a fun and friendly educator who is passionate about helping students have successful and enjoyable learning experiences. I love helping students find the joy in learning and feel empowered and motivated in the learning process. I tailor my approach to meet individual students' needs and preferences. I look forward to getting to know you!
