I started tutoring during my junior year of high school, finding that I had an aptitude for analogies that helped students learn the material. I tutor a large variety of subjects, including LSAT, SAT, and ACT. I also tutor various academic subjects, primarily in the fields of math and science. My favorite subject to tutor is Chemistry, followed closely by Physics. I feel that...

...about your opinion. It is rather an absolute science where anyone agree to one and single outcome. Moreover, as I always tell my students, you can never finish better yourself through practice because practice makes perfect.

My goal is to help students with their gaps and build them up to the point that they will feel confident enough to face any...

I try to put forth this effort and learn in...

I come from a long line of teachers on both sides of my family. Above all, I bring compassion to my work. I have a learning disability which makes me gifted in some areas, but very slow in others. This disconnect made my educational journey a long and difficult one. I understand...

...level. I make sure the student is sure of all concepts before going forward, as I believe having a solid grasp of fundamentals and prior concepts is essential in understanding new ideas in Maths. I've achieved a BS in Mathematics from the University of Alaska, Anchorage.

Hi! My name is Orion and I just graduated from the University of Washington! I earned a BS in General Biology and am planning to attend a masters program in Physician Assistant Studies.

...the perspective of student-focused teaching and instructor-focused teaching depending on the topic being taught. I believe that active learning is very helpful for kids to gauge their level of understanding. Since I mostly work with elementary students, my teaching strategies include the use of videos, games, puzzles, crosswords, explanations, diagrams, and assessments. As a tutor, my strengths include patience (to help the student repeatedly and patiently when they reach a roadblock), adaptability (to change my...

...in Political Science. I've been tutoring for the past 6 years or so, professionally for the past 4, so I have lots of experience. I primarily tutor Mathematics, Physics, and Political Science; I'd be happy to help you/your child better understand the concepts behind their problems and achieve better results. My tutoring style differs depending on the subject I'm tutoring. For Mathematics based subjects, I tend to take a graphical approach; focusing on addressing weak-points...

...tutoring children with special needs since I was 16 and have experience teaching abstract mathematical concepts using concrete examples. I also currently tutor statistics and mathematics to college students here at Carleton. I believe that all students are capable of learning and try to cater my instruction to the learning styles of my students. When doing math, it is easy to get discouraged and feel like we will never understand something. In reality, being stuck...

...very important to have a connection and build confidence in students. My goal is to not only help you with the subject material that you wish to learn, but help you learn how to find resources and access information so that some day you may not need me! I am very fond of the saying: "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed...

First, a tutor needs to be concerned for his students and needs to create a friendly learning environment. Then, the tutor can establish a team in order to improve the product.
