...and improve your critical thinking skills. I graduated from Oklahoma State University with a Masters in Mechanical and Aerospace engineering where I was a teaching assistant for Junior Level mechanical engineering courses, co-authored 5 Journal articles, and 4 conference papers. I currently work as a research and development Engineer in the oil and Gas industry, and it would be an honor to tutor the next generation of science, technology, engineering, and math students.

...learning style best suits him or her, and then encourage the student to go above and beyond! There are no limits to what one can learn! Everyone has potential. Everyone deserves a chance to enrich their minds, and what separates a good teacher from just a teacher is patience. It's one thing to have the knowledge and distribute it, but it is another to have the patience to ensure a solid foundation and reinforce it!...

As an educator, I help students meet their fullest potential, so they can grow academically with high self-esteem. Tutoring provides an opportunity for continual learning and growth. One of my hopes as an educator is to instill a love of learning. We all have strengths and weaknesses, and it's imperative we ask questions to reach our goals. My tutoring involves weaknesses in the following: reading comprehension, phonics, inference, writing, mechanics, college entrance writing, and more.

...because I wanted to continue my studies in both subject areas. I have tutored in the past (both Spanish and math) and enjoy the opportunity to work with students on a one-to-one level. I believe that individual attention can assist the student greatly in learning. After 15 years of working in a corporate environment, I am now a high school math teacher (Geometry) at Incarnate Word Academy. I enjoy spending time with my husband and...

...acquisition, psychology, sociology, Early Childhood Education, and test prep. I have taught Pre-Kindergarten and second grade at the KIPP Infinity charter school in Harlem, New York. I have worked with teachers who are certified by the Waldorf School, and their teaching philosophies and methods have largely influenced my own. These include, but are not limited to: student led questioning and analysis, frequent use of songs and poetry, and critical explorations of our knowledge at the...

...courses at SIU, and also a tutor for companies such as Sylvan Learning and At Home Academy. I am from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and I miss the south! Upon graduating from SIU, I will be moving to Houston, Texas. I love teaching and helping others learn new concepts and ideas. I feel that I am a skilled tutor in that I am able to put things in many different ways until my student understands it...

...their goals. I am a passionate advocate for education and believe that, while not every student can excel in every academic discipline, most students can achieve proficiency in nearly every subject. I have a background in Humanities, including History, Social Sciences, Philosophy and comparative religion. I have tutored students in Geometry, Pre-Algebra, Biology, English, Religious Studies, Reading Comprehension, Writing improvement, and other topics. While not working, I play board games with my son and enjoy...

...and physics. My physics is pretty advanced do to the fact that I took multiple courses related to this subject, but overall my math is what I am best at. I tutored prior to this job one year for Kumon Learning Center, and also I tutored for the University of Houston for freshmen students. During the these tutoring jobs I focused on the teaching of subjects related to math and science, specifically at the University...

...in various levels of math. I'm most passionate about working with deaf students by helping them develop the basic skills to be successful in standardized testing and/or college level, but also enjoy challenging myself by working with students in higher level math classes as well. I also enjoy tutoring American Sign Language because it is a beautiful language that is part of a rich and interesting culture and I think it is important to educate...

...to develop their scholarly abilities, or a more of age student that is beginning a college career and pursuing his/her goals, I strive to advance each student's skill set to not only attain their goals, but to exceed them! Tutoring is more than a job, it has become an important part of my life in my attempt to make a difference. When I am not tutoring I enjoy listening to music, reading, drawing and traveling.

...a computer science degree with a possibility of a minor in either business or education. Most of my tutoring experienced comes from being tutored myself, so I hope to improve on the ways that were brought onto me and extending other ways forward. I tutor computer science and mathematics as they are required for my degree, thus I must excel at them. My tutoring style is hands on with a emphasis on explaining things in...

...my ultimate goal is to train the student not to simply answer specific questions, but to get them to understand how to approach problems properly and break down more complex scenarios into their most basic concepts, so that the solution can be found. Outside of academia, my interests include playing music, basketball and soccer, cooking, and generally trying to learn new skills (right now I am learning French). If you are interested in working with...

...a variety of styles (kinesthetic, visual, auditory), I always tried to incorporate all three elements in each example I introduced. My students would say that I am a good motivator, and always am patient when guiding them on problems. I also have extensive tutoring experience, having created and run an after school tutoring program at two different schools. At an elementary school, I tutored kindergarten bilingual (Spanish) students in math, reading, and English. At the...

...personal needs. From finding out what specific learning style the student has, to repetition and a fun learning environment. The line between fun and work is a very thin one, and the hobbies I have support that. I enjoy playing the ukulele and piano, as well as competing in basketball and football. I hope you as a parent can put your faith in me to help your child improve their way of learning and understanding.

...to guide students to the discovery of problems solving instead of providing them with the right solution. Because ultimately my objective is to help students develop their ability to learn independently. Teaching has always been a passion of mine. Since my college years, I have tutored on and off for the past 15 years. I am equally comfortable teaching young students as well as adults in a variety of mathematics and related subjects (Algebra to...

...always love facilitating learning experiences. When I was a little kid, I taught my sisters the capitals and countries of Africa using ridiculous mnemonics. It worked. Now we're grown up and married, and we still remember which capital goes with which country. In my free time, I do basic literacy work with bilingual elementary students from low-income backgrounds, and I also volunteer with refugees. I speak four languages, and am learning Spanish now. I enjoy...

...completely bilingual and am able to tutor in Spanish through the high school level. My tutoring style is focused but understanding and very patient. I really take the time to make sure the student understands what he/she is working on. In my spare time I like to read and spend time with my family. My interests include arts and crafts, Houston and Texas history, the arts, and cooking. I am a proud Native Texan but...

...a structural engineer in Houston, I tutored for the Texas A&M Athletics Department, helping their student athletes tackle their math and science classes. I find I enjoy teaching and have the ability to simplify problems down to their basic building blocks which can be easily taught and learned. Once those blocks are known, it becomes fairly simple to build them back up to form the overall solution to the problem. I hope to use these...

...in what they have desired to do. I endeavor to find new was to convey information and I see it as an art and calling. I see social media as a way to do this as well as I regularly enjoy tweeting interesting ideas and posting blogs over my recent writing projects and passions. All of my hobbies center around the joy of teaching and communicating. So, again, teaching is my passion and calling. I...

...adept at assisting students in varied writing styles such as essay writing and creative writing. I have also helped students revise and edit their college application essays and prepared them for the reading and writing portions of the SAT exam. My goal as an educator is to help students see reading and writing as enjoyable and meaningful endeavors through finding texts they love and developing their own unique writing style and voice.
