Award-Winning Elementary Math Tutors for Students in Rockville, MD

...organizing, and paying attention. My passion is to meet each student where they are at and try to mold my tutoring style to what they need. To do this, I employ verbal, visual, and kinesthetic techniques and enjoy facilitating the process in which students learn how they learn best. In my free time, I enjoy hiking, walking my dog, dancing, going to the gym, cooking new recipes, and learning new do-it-yourself projects for my home.

...got my start teaching as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Rwanda, where I taught English to national park rangers and leadership skills to local high school students.

While I studied conservation science and ecology as a graduate student at the Yale School of Forestry and Environmental Studies, I got my bachelor's degree in International Relations from the George...

...philosophy is to teach not just from the textbook; I want students to understand and comprehend what is being taught to them. I feel that when you teach a person and guide them to learn social skills they become more in becoming independent, successful, and ready for what is ahead in the real world. I have experience teaching in the Education field for about five to six years. I am a current special education teacher...

...an Engineering graduate from the University of Maryland at College Park. I have enjoyed working as an Engineer since graduating in 2007, but I have missed tutoring and teaching. My philosophy is that everyone has the ability to learn, the material just has to be presented in a way that is easy to comprehend.

I've been tutoring math and science for the last ten years. I really like this job because I enjoy working with kids, and I also love to talk about my interests. This is a great job. My hours are flexible, and I can re-arrange times to fit your needs (for example, if there's a test on Tuesday, I could come on Monday instead of the scheduled time). I can also tutor both SAT and GRE.

...of different environments, from volunteering in schools to working at childcare/preschool facilities. And, (mostly) unrelated to my tutoring abilities, I am also an old movie aficionado, lover of fantasy novels, and world traveler whenever I get the chance. In high school, I was one of those cool kids who attended math camp and learned to solve Rubik's Cubes -- a skill that now just makes its resurgence as an occasional party trick.

...am currently a student at the Johns Hopkins University School of Nursing. I completed my bachelor's degree in Film Production from Emerson College in 2007.

I also spent a year in AmeriCorps, where I was a residential counselor for students in a residential academic program here in Baltimore. There's no one right...

...reading. My approach to teaching is through hands on learning. Students need to manipulate their world in order to make sense of it. So through various manipulatives and/or real-life experiences students can move from the abstract to concrete. In addition, I make learning fun! My students love coming to my class and learning. They say it feels like a game, but the secret is that they are actually learning! So if you want your scholar...

...So I strive to connect with my students on a personal level. When I'm not in the classroom, I'm probably spending time with my wife and son (born Sept 2012). Both are my pride and joy. Sports is another passion of mine - baseball, football, basketball, you name it (excited for the start of March Madness and baseball season!). I also enjoy going to movies, cooking (Cajun - lived in New Orleans), reading, and hanging...

...as well. I believe that in order to succeed, students need to see learning as an engaging, rewarding, and fun challenge. Through encouragement and positive feedback, learning and achievement become less of a chore and more something of which a student can be truly proud. I know from personal experience that in the areas in which I struggled as a child, I only became fully motivated to consistently improve (and even began enjoying my least...

...and classroom management. I learned to develop teaching materials using little resources. Through training and experience, I realized the importance of tailoring teaching methods to an individual student's learning needs. I always consider how a topic can be approached from a different perspective - one that considers the student's learning style and preferences. After several years of developing additional classroom and learning resources, I enjoy creating fun and supplemental materials that will enhance the student's...
