Award-Winning Statistics Tutors in Indianapolis, IN

...future achievements that in some cases they or their parents would have thought impossible. In our society, it is unfortunately the case that classroom instruction is often ineffective. In my view, the main reasons are a lax classroom environment that does not promote learning; low expectations; and unfortunately, a relatively low standard of professionalism expected of classroom teachers. Although I have seen both sides of this issue as a classroom teacher myself, and there are...

...tutor the following subjects: algebra, discrete/finite math, geometry, and statistics (business, psych). My approach is to tutoring is about one thing: relatability. I really try to understand the student's issues and identify with them. This puts the student in a comfortable place, where no question feels like a dumb question. Once you get there, you can make real progress. Personal interests: sports of all sorts (i'm a huge Colts, Pacers, Dodgers, and Crimson Tide fan),...

...year and after that, I was unstoppable when it came to learning new strategies. I believe that any individual who struggles with math at an early age only needs that extra motivation to excel. I remember those days when I would leave school feeling defeated because I did not understand or grasp the material that was taught. My teaching methods vary depending on the student but I have never had a student did not see...

...School for Community Learning in Indianapolis. In the past 4 years I've taught every grade, from Kindergarten through Eighth Grade. Though I've mostly taught middle school math and Kindergarten through 2nd Grade. I love working with kids who aren't getting the most from their abilities. Whether that's student with ADHD who haven't realized all the advantages that are part of that diagnosis or gifted students who have never learned to really slow down and work...

...past, I have tutored Algebra I and II, Geometry, Pre-Calculus, and AP Calculus. I love to tutor Pre-Calculus and Calculus because I find it exciting when students are able to grasp the more difficult topics in mathematics. When tutoring students, I like to encourage them to think for themselves. I have found that critical thinking is the most vital skill in understanding mathematics. To encourage this kind of thinking, I like to ask as many...

...in every session to try their best and solve their own problems. My role is to guide them in their learning processes and reinforce their achievements. I am passionate about learning and want to share my passion with others. To create a better future, we need passionate learners who are confident in their abilities. Every person has strengths that can be harnessed and applied to help them succeed. Similarly, every person has different weaknesses that...

...majors. I have a lot of informal experience helping my peers in various classes during the after-hours, I have done the same all throughout my high school career as well. I love tutoring anybody for just about anything. Being personable and authentic is extremely important to me, but not quite as important as honesty, respect and compassion. Staying true to my word and being reliable is what I tend to strive for. Most of all,...

...communicate with people. These interests range from art and cooking to science. A great example is how I can relate the relationship between a function, its derivative, and its second derivative to position, speed, and acceleration. All of math has its roots in the natural sciences and should be explored in that context. With that being said, I find that I love tutoring calculus and differential equations the most because that is when the examples...

...my students will have learned above all an abiding respect for reason: a lifelong conviction that they can understand reality and make sense of the world. However, a great teacher does much more than merely recite the content of his subject. I intend to encourage and motivate each one of my students to perform academically, at a level no less than their very best, yet there is much more to teaching than just making certain...

...thinking about Biology, Chemistry, Statistics, and Policy. I love to teach and work with the Pacific Science Center as a Communication Fellow. I attended Stanford University for both my Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Biology, with a minor in Chemistry. While there, I researched the immune system and how asthma and allergies develop. After college I managed a summer camp where I developed my love of working with people and the mountains. In my free...
