I'm Jack, an Industrial Engineering student at Purdue University. I have a lot of high school tutoring experience, and I was a teacher's aid for three different high school courses. I also was a debate instructor at my local middle school for four years. Outside of school, I was a volunteer martial arts instructor for five years. I am excited about helping students achieve their goals!

I am currently attending the University of Central Missouri to receive my Alternative Certification and Master of Arts in Teaching degrees in Middle School Mathematics. On top of academic exposure to an array of math classes, I tutored many peers while in high school. Aside from traditional tutoring, I have exposure to teaching vital lessons to students of all backgrounds through my volunteer work at the University of Missouri and time spent in Guatemala.

...years. I am comfortable teaching all levels of math and/or statistics. I also have decades of experience helping students prepare for Standardized Tests. I believe that in order to excel at math, you must master previous concepts. Many students have gaps in their learning, which has been made even worse by the Covid Pandemic. I will help you understand the WHY and HOW the math works, so you can truly understand it.

Teaching mathematics is the best hobby .

My ultimate goal is to strive for the highest and to inspire those with whom I interact to do the same. Be the best that you can be, and be proud of the things you do.

My name is Sandra Lugo, I worked at the university for 26 years where for my first 18 years I taught Calculus I and II, along with Static, Dynamic and Materials for Construction. I think my experience and my passion for teaching are my best introduction.

I'm a software engineer who loves coming up with intuitive ways to think about things, and I'm here to help!

Make every effort to make yourself improved, a student need not be ashamed!... Keep it simple student!... I will do an interview. I will attempt to understand how the student is thinking -- in detail or short and sweet!... Don't be lazy! A student is one who studies. If you can eat, drink, and breath daily, then why can't you study daily. Apply yourself.... Take a break from studying. Sunday through Thursday study, and Friday and...

...different perspectives, and when you are teaching you have to be able to both provide a new perspective and to understand (so as to enlarge) someone else's perspective. In my non-teaching time, I am interested in Physics and Mathematics and working out practical problems from plumbing to electronics. I will someday go back for my Ph.D. in Physics but until then I am looking to grow as an engineer or computer programmer.... Socratic. I know too...

I love making math easy for people!

I'm currently a sophomore majoring in Computer Science at Case Western Reserve University. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I'm most familiar with high school math, history, and English as well as SAT and ACT prep. In my experience tutoring I've found that students respond best to a careful walktrough of the key points in a problem, followed by an opportunity to come up with the answer a similar question on their own.

I have 25 years of experience as a Math and Physics teacher and am an expert in making difficult concepts comprehensible to students. I take great satisfaction from helping students succeed. I have taught everything from middle school math and science to 12th grade, including AP Calculus, IB Mathematics Higher Level, IB ToK, IB Extended Essay and have extensive experience tutoring students preparing for the SAT and ACT exams.

...that has no substitute. That is why I started tutoring 4 years ago. Every subject I tutor is one that I consider myself to be an expert at, and I am confident that I can share some of my expertise. With my engineering background and literary skills, I am prepared to tutor a variety of subjects. That being said, some of the subjects I tutor most are ACT, various branches of math, engineering, reading, and...

...Instruction. I went on to teach fifth grade in the Blue Valley School District where I was able to write the curriculum. I worked with Kindergarten through 12th grade in inner-city Kansas City, Missouri as an Instructional Coach. This gave me the ability to work with every type of learner and different curricula at every grade level assessing, teaching, reassessing, and working toward goals with the student and their teachers. That helped me to become...

We all learn differently. As Albert Einstein said, "Study is not the learning of facts but the training of the mind to think." Thomas Edison said only five percent of people think; another 10 percent think they think; and 85 percent would rather die than think. Let me help you be one of the five.... We all learn differently and at our own pace. Also, we often know more than we think we do. We just...
