Jeffrey

Algebra Tutor • +10 Subjects

I am passionate about helping students because I believe I have an obligation to spread the wisdom I have to aid those in need. This is my first time truthfully tutoring a student one on one. But a friend of mine is a tutor and I had the opportunity to observe how sessions are conducted. I am currently a student attending Valencia College. I plan on going to the University of Central Florida to obtain my Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering. The subjects that I tutor is middle school math such as Pre-Algebra and Algebra. I also tutor students in College Essays. My favorite subject to tutor is Math. Patience and proper guidance is really important in helping a student understand the subject that they are struggling in. I usually teach the student the subject and give a test to evaluate what the student is struggling on. Then me and the student wil work together until we reach our goal. I am interested in playing sports such as football, baseball and basketball. I also love to play the piano and deal with electronics.

William

10th Grade Math Tutor • +56 Subjects

I graduated from the University of South Florida obtaining a B.A. degree in Mathematics and a B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering. Currently, I am pursuing a Master's degree in Telecommunications and Optics Engineering at the City College of New York.I started tutoring mathematics shortly after my first semester in college. I love every branch of mathematics, but I tend to gravitate towards Calculus due to its beauty and effectiveness in describing and modeling natural phenomena. However, I feel equally pleased tutoring other math subjects, including, but not limited to: Differential Equations, Algebra, Trigonometry, Linear Algebra, Electrical Engineering courses, and Pre-Calculus.

I grew up in a family that valued education, with a mother who is now a retired teacher. I have worked with all age groups in a variety of educational settings since I was a teen. I just love interacting with kids and teens and helping them learn. I have had the pleasure of seeing so many students either get excited over learning something new and having their world open up that much more or having a student finally have the a-ha moment when a difficult topic suddenly makes sense. I look forward to working with you and your family to achieve your learning and education goals.

More often than not, I receive the same set of responses when asked what my Major was in college. "Psychology? What can you do with that?", "So you must love Freud right?", "Hope you don't plan on getting a job." At first, I took these questions and comments at face value, allowing doubt to ever so slowly creep in and consume me. I knew why I loved Psychology, but I wasn't able to communicate my passion and enthusiasm for the field with those around me. The field of psychology is so vast and expansive that most people aren't familiar with what it is psychologists actually do. That's when it hit me, I shouldn't evade questions about psychology, I should embrace them. Now, when confronted about my choice of major, I am afforded the opportunity to engage in a dialogue not only about the field of Psychology in general, but about Industrial and Organizational Psychology and its contributions to the community at large.Learning is a continuous process. Now, organizations are taking it upon themselves to consistently train employees in order to maintain a strategic edge. Learning, however, is not a passive process. Engagement, learner control, learning orientation, situational and individual differences all play a strategic role in the learning process. My goal is to help individuals better understand the learning process as a whole; developing the skills necessary to perform and learn across a wide array of subjects and levels.My aim is to assist, teach, and inspire. Learning isn't an easy process. However, with the right mindset and the right tools, the process can be both challenging and enjoyable.

Surabhi

10th Grade Math Tutor • +30 Subjects

I am a graduate student at San Diego State University working towards my MS in Bioinformatics. I completed pharmacy school and became a pharmacist in 2010. I have been working as a tutor/teacher since 2007. I have worked with students of a vast variety of age groups and subjects.I love science and I love teaching. Of all the science subjects that I tutor, chemistry is my favorite. I have studied it beyond the text books and have my own tricks and techniques to learn the material. My second favorite is math/algebra which serves as a good brain exercise. I love solving the problems, like a puzzle and most of the times do it without a calculator.I am a social person and love meeting people and talking to them on different topics. One of the reasons my students love me, is because they can talk to me, more like a friend. For my hobbies, I can do anything and everything that can keep me busy during my spare time. I am an outgoing person and have been of immense help to my students so far. It is one of the things that I am really good at, and hence proud of.

Julian

10th Grade Math Tutor • +52 Subjects

I graduated on December 2015 from the University of Tasmania - located in Australia - with a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering. I am now living in Houston enjoying Texas hospitality and hope to give back by passing on some knowledge of my own.I enjoy helping others do well in their studies. From high school through to university, I would often spend time with classmates and friends helping them with their homework (particularly math homework). During the last two years of my engineering degree, I was working as a Teaching Assistant (TA) running regular tutorials and lab sessions for first year classes of up to 70 students at a time. Despite this, I still prefer tutoring students one-on-one because from my experience this obtains the best academic results.The subjects I tutor are specifically math related, as that is my strongest field. It can range from basic Grade 4 math through to Calculus 1, including standardized test preparation. My favorite subjects to tutor are Algebra 1 & 2, pre-Calculus, and Calculus 1, because it's great to see students realize these subjects are not as hard as common perceptions make them out to be. Nothing beats having a student tell you that a subject they were previously struggling with is now a walk in the park!My hobbies include hiking, camping, table tennis, reading fiction novels, playing guitar, chess, and video games.

Brian

10th Grade Math Tutor • +49 Subjects

I am currently enrolled in the University of South Florida's Electrical Engineering Program pursuing my bachelors degree. I have a Pre-Engineering Associates in Arts degree from St. Petersburg College which means that most of my classes were math and science classes. I tutor math subjects ranging from basic Arithmetic all the way to Calculus I. I have experience tutoring privately and at a college campus. I love tutoring Algebra and Trigonometry because of their real world applications and although you may not see it in your everyday life, these two subjects are used in anything ranging from the computer or mobile devices you are currently using to powering your home with electricity. I strive to help students understand the material presented in a way that makes sense to the student because I know from my own experience as a student that not every teacher is able to relate the information in a way that makes sense. My passion is to help students do better and feel more confident with their studies.

10th Grade Math Tutor • +104 Subjects

Learning is a daily, lifelong process. If embraced, it can foster a fulfilling life, one with many choices regarding career, family, and personal attainment. I discovered that at an early age and feel that I have been a beneficiary: as a father and husband; an historian, financial analyst and banker; a teacher, mentor, tutor and friend. Thats my approach as a tutor: listen carefully and understand my student; respect their learning style and ignite (or maintain) their passion for learning (and meet their immediate goals). Leaven it all with some fun.Throughout my career, I have had the benefit of great mentor/tutors and have always tried to do the same for others. Formally, I have taught students at the high school and college level in math and history (Rutgers University - PhD, 1988) and advised many others informally as a banking and investment professional (Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA), since 1994). Recently, I have become a math tutor, mentor and substitute teacher in the Denver Public School system and an historical adviser for a national high school competition focused on the U.S. Constitution.Since my approach to studying the past has been very comprehensive, I have also developed active interests in literature, music, art and architecture and popular culture. Along with a making a good meal, reading widely, hanging out with friends and family (including a tri-pod Labrador), watching British crime dramas, and drinking a great cup of coffee, these round out my day.

Thomas

10th Grade Math Tutor • +33 Subjects

I thoroughly enjoy and am excited by mathematics and the teaching of mathematics. The effect, I hope, is contagious; I feel my students can sense my enthusiasm and, because of that, become more interested in mathematics themselves. I have found that nothing is more motivational to students than genuine interest in what they are learning.My mathematics teaching style features a variety of methods of instruction that depends on: 1) the subject matter of the lesson and 2) my understanding with how the individual student best learns mathematics. I believe that students learn mathematics best by doing mathematics and then working to communicate about mathematics. Communication is the key to success. Most students want to get the right answer and then go about their business, when in reality the beauty of Mathematics is the clear communication of the thought that derives a solution. By teaching how to communicate mathematics, the student learns to be confident in mathematics; confidence, in turn, breeds success in mathematics. To support this goal, I frequently use the Socratic Method to elicit mathematical thought and foster engagement with mathematical concepts.I have found that using multiple representations of mathematical ideas (e.g., algebraic, graphical, and numerical) is beneficial for two reasons. First of all, different students learn in different ways, and one representation may be easier for a student to understand than another. Secondly, knowing multiple representations and methods of solution makes for better problem solving; if students know several ways of attacking a problem, then there is a better chance of them being able to solve it. I insist on the use of technology in my instruction, especially the use of calculators and the use of the internet as a resource.I strive to improve each and every time that I engage a student. Through my teaching style and methods described here, it is my hope that my students leave each session confident with their newly acquired understanding of their subject.

Hi there! I'm a fourth year medical student pursuing a career in Psychiatry and hospital administration. I have excelled throughout my years in schooling and hope to share my educational expertise with you! I have extensive experience working with learners in different academic settings, and genuinely enjoy the art of teaching. I have tutored students of all ages, ranging from elementary school to medical school I graduated summa cum laude from the University of Miami in 2012 with a major in psychology and minors in Biology & Chemistry. I went on to attend medical school at Rutgers University in New Brunswick, NJ.I have successfully taken and performed well on the SAT, MCAT, and United States Medical Licensing Exams (USMLE). My teaching style and learning approach are very similar. In order to fully understand a topic, one should feel comfortable explaining the information to a complete stranger. I hope to create a fun and educational environment to help students succeed! I look forward to working with you.
