My education is taking me toward becoming a Math teacher. I look forward to the interactions where I can help students engage with the academic material ... Small goals and recognition of accomplishments are a useful to maintaining motivation.... Learning is rarely independent. We rely...

...more than 10 years, in conjunction with over 20 years of programming and software QA. I love helping people find new ways of looking at problems to reveal solutions. My aptitude for math, programming and robotics stems from my true passion for music, especially music theory. I find that I'm not alone - that many of my technical colleagues share my musical leanings. Let me help you look at those tricky problems differently!... Ask, don't tell....

...most it’s kinesthetic. I want to figure out how you learn and go from there. If you need to make angles with your body to know the difference between acute and obtuse then let’s do it!

...mathematics, topics work towards a unifying theme. One of the traits which I believe makes me a good tutor is my patience. While tutoring I enjoy working through problems repeatedly with students until mastery of the concept is achieved. I strongly believe that every child is capable of learning any subject and it’s the tutor’s duty to employ the proper strategy. Outside of tutoring I enjoy volunteering and traveling. Thankfully, I have been able to...

...science courses, as well as beginner spanish and ACT prep. In my tutoring experience, I have primarily worked with high school students in science and math courses, and have really enjoyed the opportunity to encourage enthusiasm for their classes during these sessions. I work to help my students understand the material at a conceptual level so that they can build upon what they have learned in the future, and also focus on organization in problem-solving...

...issue is more than simply getting better grades. Many students feel angry, hopeless, and uninterested in school when they are having trouble. With the right help and time, problem areas can feel less overwhelming and even fun. My method is to first understand my student's specific issue, and work to address him or her as an individual. I help them develop strategies so when they are alone and facing a difficult problem, they have the...

...with a degree in chemical engineering. As I continue my schooling to get my master's degree I would love to use my strong educational background not only to help my students with math and science, but also to get them excited about it! Throughout my years as a student, I've learned that everyone responds differently to different teaching styles. It is my goal to adapt my teaching style for each individual student in order to...

I have extensive experience working with students in Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry and Calculus. I firmly believe that given the appropriate tools every child can experience academic success resulting in increased levels of self esteem which will positively affect all aspects of a student's life.

...engineering, healthcare IT, and renewable energy. I have tutored elementary and high school mathematics and am available to tutor all math subjects up to and including AP Calculus AB and Physics. While the mechanics of math problems is important, I think solving real-world applications of mathematics is the true test of how well a concept is understood, and is much more enjoyable to learn. I enjoy hiking, playing with my dog, cooking, road trips, and...

...I would be honored to help bring about that sense of accomplishment in someone else. When it comes to mathematics, it is entirely possible that you won't ever need to know more than basic arithmetic. Nonetheless, learning more advanced math teaches you more advanced problem solving skills. The ability to use what you know to find out more is fundamental to solving almost any problem you may be faced with as well as improving your...

...students professionally for one year, but also through my schools for 5 years now. I tutor most kinds of Math and Science, and love doing so; being able to help spread understanding of a difficult concept never fails to bring me joy. As a current student, I understand how lecturing is often not the most effective (or interesting) way to learn, so I like to be very interactive and ask a lot of questions in...

I am a recent MBA grad who has experience working in business and public policy. I have written at a professional level and have experience doing economic research.

...students. I tend to encounter the same difficulties with all History students, regardless of their age or grade. They tell me that History is boring, and they don't consider it relevant to their lives. My goal is to change that perception by finding parallels between the subject matter and the modern world. History is so much more than a list of names and dates to be memorized. In order to truly understand the modern world...

...and take a major trip every other year. My most recent adventure was a trip to Italy! My teaching philosophy is to take complex concepts and simplify them by learning a step by step process followed by demonstrations and student practice. Many times students have challenges in math because they are missing a step. As a tutor, it is my job to identify gaps and fill them so the student will be successful moving forward.

...very good at any math or science field, as they were always my favorite in high school. I am very knowledgeable on the subjects since I am taking rigorous technical courses at CMU. I was the Valedictorian at my high school and know how to help you succeed in school as well. I am a hands-on type of learner, meaning that I learn by actually doing examples and understanding physically how the theory works.

...importance of understanding the fundamentals of a subject before trying to focus on specifics, especially in math and science. I try to have a very flexible teaching style, as I know not everybody learns in the same way, and I will always come prepared to teach a subject in multiple ways depending on the student's way of learning. I am outgoing, encouraging and patient, and I will always push my students to achieve to the...
