I am a Junior in the Macaulay Honors College at Hunter College pursuing a degree in Statistics with minors in Creative Writing and Computer Science. I believe that numbers and mathematics are all around us and a strong understanding of basic applications is an essential part of every student's education. I strive to create a friendly and light-hearted working environment where students are comfortable asking questions because, from my experience, it is more conducive to learning. I tutor a host of Mathematical subjects but also specialize in helping students through the academic writing process. In my spare time I enjoy writing various forms of fiction and playing competitively for my college's Men's Basketball team.

I am currently a Sales Engineer in Seattle, WA, and graduated from the University of Washington with a BS in Chemical Engineering and a BA in Biochemistry. I have worked for four years as a project engineer and project manager in the environmental engineering and specialty chemical industry. I deeply believe in the importance of developing critical thinking skills in order to succeed in classes, score competitively on standardized tests, and prepare for success in the workforce. I am excited to help others find ways to connect educational skills with potential real world applications.I will be attending the Foster School of Business this Fall and am excited to learn leadership and management skills to compliment my technical base. As a student I hope to focus on Product Management in Technology, and strengthen my community involvement through tutoring and educational volunteer opportunities.I will be focusing on tutoring high school and college level Math and Science courses, as well as preparation for Math and Science portions of standardized tests. I believe that my academic and professional experiences have given me the necessary knowledge in these subjects, and, matched with my excitement to help others prepare for academic success, will lead to successful tutoring experiences.

I believe knowledge is the best and most applicable skill you can have, that's why I love tutoring. Everyone has those subjects they need a little more understanding in, and I love helping people answer their own questions. Getting the right answer is always important, but I think understanding how you got there is the most integral part. I love working with people to find out how they approach a problem and seeing how they think gives me a better understanding on how to help them. After working with countless high school student, during high school, I know there is no single, definitive way to solve a problem. I encourage kids to come up with there own path towards solving a problem while I guide them along the way. This is my first professional tutoring job and I look forward to finding more ways to help students learn in a manner that they like. Probably my favorite subjects to teach are science and math course, i.e. algebra, chemistry, physics, etc. I love these subjects because they are the fundamentals of the entire universe. Right now, I'm working towards a degree in computer science, but I've thought about switching that over to mathematics-well because I love math. Outside of school subjects; I play video games, do cross country, and like watching documentaries and superhero films.

Hello! I completed my Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Washington.I have been tutoring since my Bachelor's where I received a degree in physics and a minor in mathematics. I have also volunteered for Bears and Cubs, which is a program that mentors at risk youth in the community. During my time volunteering I gained a lot of first hand experience with all sorts of children and learning styles.I love all kinds of physical activities and have participated sports most of my life. I have a passion for learning because I believe logic, knowledge, and the ability to be independent are very valuable in life.

I have always been surrounded my teaching my entire life as both my mom and sister are both educators. I have worked in-person with children as both a tutor and as a care-taker for last last several years. Although I am currently pursing an Aerospace Engineering degree at the University of Maryland, I thoroughly enjoy education and hope to help out as much as possible!

I am a freshman at Columbia University, currently pursuing a degree in Computer Science. In high school, I was a member of Mu Alpha Theta where I taught students geometry and algebra for two years. I tutor Computer Science, Math subjects up to Calculus III, Physics, and ACT Prep. In my tutoring experiences, I find that learning and adapting to your interests and areas of expertise helps you understand the material on a much deeper level. In my free time, I typically program applications and games in C, C++, Python, and Java.

As the oldest of three daughters, I've spent my life nurturing the love of learning and acquiring much needed patience along the way. My siblings struggled in school, especially with math. I found that not only was I good at teaching, but I loved watching their skills and confidence grow.As a college student, I've found dedication and patience are the key components of proficiency in any field. I've successfully worked with a large range of students, from the smallest kindergartner to the determined collegiate athlete. I specialize in math and the physical sciences, such as chemistry and physics.I can accommodate two types of services -- 1) homework and test prep assistance and 2) long term remedial education. The former is a guided study session. The latter is a bit more intricate. Remedial services include: a customized curriculum designed to target the student's specific needs and cater to their unique learning style; periodical assessments to determine progress and areas of difficulty; and engaging games and puzzles to sharpen critical thinking. Each session will challenge the student in a new way and create opportunities for them to work independently to develop confidence.Several years of teaching and studying math have inspired a variety of approaches for individual success. Under my belt are three calculus classes, differential equations, and linear algebra with more courses to come) --- I specialize in instructing elementary math, pre-algebra, algebra, geometry (including trigonometry), pre-calculus, and calculus. All my students were able to raise their grade by at least one letter and some are now tutoring math themselves!A life long love of science-fiction has guided my pursuit of the sciences. My instruction method focuses on practical approaches and has a history of success with a variety of students. My realm is mostly high school and college-level chemistry (with exception of organic) and physics, but if your elementary or middle school student is struggling with science I'll gladly aid them. Many prospective engineering students and reluctant biology majors have benefited from my services, citing my approach of teaching the concepts before introducing mathematical calculations as "life saving".If you have any questions or would like to discuss a consultation, do not hesitate to contact me. I look forward to helping you achieve your study goals!

I come from a newspapering family. My father and my uncle were both newspaper editors, and my son Joel has carried on the tradition by being a reporter for the Atlantic City Press (and marrying an editor).One thing my father taught me was that there was no such thing as a useless piece of information. Anything you might know could show up in a newspaper story you are editing. For example, what is the name of Don Quixote's horse? (It's "Rozinante"). This came across my father's desk twice in one week in stories he was editing---and both times it was misspelled.One interest my father passed on to me was Civil War history. This was useful on two occasions, once when a visiting Australia and a writer said he was interested in seeing Civil War battlefields and I took him to see the Manassas, Antietam, and Gettysburg battlefields, and once when I was asked to write an encyclopedia article on Mathematics in the Civil War.Other interests I have acquired from my father were Wild West history, American history in general, and the sciences. I, however, did not pick up his taste for detective stories (outside of Sherlock Holmes).In the first grade my father showed me how to add with carrying, and I have been interested in mathematics ever since. I did not realize how much I was interested in math until the seventh grade when I was entered in a mental arithmetic contest. I did not win, but I did well, and ever since if I don't have a calculator, or pencil and paper handy, I will do arithmetic in my head. The same year I was placed in a class which studied the "new math" rather than traditional mathematics courses. I think I was a shining example of what the new math could do. However, in college, it was disappointing to discover that everything "new" about the new math was covered in one term of my abstract algebra class.I graduated from high school on Memorial Day weekend and the following Tuesday I started my first job in a computer center. This was back in punch-card days, and my job was mainly to sort punch cards before feeding them into the computer. I have been working with computers ever since, and in addition to a Bachelor's degree in Mathematics, I have a Master's degree in Computer Engineering.For fifteen years I worked for the Department of the Army. For most of that time I wrote and ran war-games on the computer (not video games, but the type of war games that would involve a long list of Army units and sometimes took months to complete). Other systems I programmed included the Army budget, personnel, and the Pentagon car pool assignments. Once when a piece of paperwork was missing, I called Personnel. The woman who answered the phone said not to worry, they had a wonderful computer program that kept track of that particular paperwork. "Ma'am," I said, "I wrote that program." (And I had.) The same day she tracked down the missing paperwork for me.My last assignment for the Army was planning office automation for the Corps of Engineers and writing the specifications for their new computers. After that I started working for a contractor with the Federal Aviation Administration. This time I was not a programmer but a software tester. I worked at the FAA's Technical Center in Egg Harbor Township, where we had computer systems that were exact duplicates of the ones air traffic controllers used in the field. Software written for the controllers was always sent to the Technical Center first for us software testers to hack away at. This was fascinating because not only did it use my years of experience in writing software, it also required me to have a detailed knowledge of just how controllers worked and what they did to control flights.I have also taught as a member of the adjunct faculty at Richard Stockton College. Courses I have taught have included Operations Research, Calculus, Statistics, and Microsoft OFFICE.Now I am retired and looking for things to do to use my years of painfully acquired computer and mathematical skills and other knowledge. Helping students learn what I learned is my answer.

Every student is capable of learning no matter what. With the right teaching they can succeed.

I am a graduate of the University of Albany. I received my Bachelor's of Science in Biology. After taking extensive math and science courses, I later realized that anyone can learn anything through practice and repetition. Majoring in biology was not easy and most of my time was spent teaching myself the material. Independent studying is good because you come up with different ways to learn the material, which is helpful when teaching someone else. The rest of my time was spent participating in study groups, where colleagues and I would teach each other. From my previous experience as a student and as a tutor, I have learned that understanding a subject depends greatly on how the material is presented. That is why it is important for me to be able to adapt to the student's preferred teaching style or one that they are most comfortable with. Once you figure that out, learning becomes fun!
