...time and space to use materials that reinforce the lesson being studied creates an opportunity for individual discovery and construction of knowledge to occur. Equally important to self-discovery is having the opportunity to study things that are meaningful and relevant to one's life and interests. Inviting student dialogue about the lessons and units of study lends the opportunity for input, students generate ideas and set goals that make for much richer activities than I could...

...the SAT and ACT. I earned an IB diploma and offer tutoring for IB subjects as well. I often led study sessions and tutoring sessions as the officer of Outreach for the Society of Physics Students at UF. My main motivation for tutoring is simply that I love physics and math, and find them immensely beautiful. I want to share that love and illustrate concepts visually and intuitively rather than through mechanical computation. There's a...

I enjoy teaching math because to the student who doesn't understand, it is a riddle with no answer. By teaching them how to recognize the type of problem and how to decode the clues, the student gets to be on the other side of the riddle, the side on which they solve it and feel good about it.

A former math teacher in Minnesota, I moved to North Carolina to do more dancing and see a different part of the world. I've worked as both a math teacher and in banking, so I know what you need to know for 'real life.' Most recent subjects taught: Algebra 1 and 2, Pre-Calculus.

...Minnesota. On my free time I study quantum mechanics and read an abundance of novels that stack up precariously on every surface in my room, causing occasional avalanches. Throughout my education I've frequently made use of online resources like khanacademy, letting me learn more about math, physics, and other subjects than I could through school. However, sometimes it was difficult to find the resources I needed to learn as much as I was capable of...

...of the student; I am not stuck in my own expertise. I am committed to finding effective strategies for facilitating understanding for each student, rather than just process. Special notes for Competition Math: I placed first in the Twin Cities (St. Paul / Minneapolis, MN) HS league twice, with one time being a tie. I qualified for the AIME twice exam via high AHSME scores. I was on the MN state ARML team twice. I...

...to facilitate their learning and school engagement. I have graduated recently enough to remember what school and class are like. It's an exciting time in life, but it can bring challenges too, at any level of education. That's why I'm here to collaborate with any students who can benefit from my tutoring. I hope to show clarity, professionalism, and respect in helping students master their work and continue to feel eager about learning.

...ways, tutoring is a healthy challenge for both the student and the tutor -- my challenge is to figure out how a student learns and help them reach those "aha" moments. Math is challenging for a lot of students. Since math skills build on themselves year after year, small learning gaps from past years can snowball and leave students confused. My challenge is often to figure out where exactly those learning gaps are fill them...

I am a current Ph.D. student at the University of Minnesota studying social psychology. I received a B.A. in Psychology and Mathematics/Statistics from Luther College in 2016, as well as completing a minor in environmental studies. I was a math tutor for three years as an undergraduate and worked primarily with first and second-year undergraduates in Pre-calculus and Calculus I.

I believe a fundamental understanding of math and science allows students to properly analyze any situation and learn how to obtain solutions. I will work with all my passion and energy to impart fundamental understanding in order to enable students to think critically and solve problems in unique ways.

I graduated from Lawrence University with a B.A. in both math and physics and a minor in computer science. I have experience tutoring high school students in calculus and helping college students with their homework for intro physics and math courses. I love math and enjoy helping others understand and master concepts that they are struggling with.

...and a Doctorate in Vocal Performance, with a focus on Opera. While I have had extensive training on the subjects of Music Theory and Ear Training exercises, I am also a capable Math tutor! I have long held a belief that Math is the music of the universe, and would be excited to help with your everyday homework or help you prep for the SAT exam. Math can be just as beautiful as a Mozart...

...I call myself an education enthusiast because I believe so strongly in the ability of education to transform students' lives, and it is always my hope that my passion rubs off on the students I work with so that they might become lifelong learners themselves. I would describe my teaching style as "supportive independence" since I believe strongly that students will struggle to learn if they don't feel supported but will never become self-sufficient learners...

...when it comes to teaching or tutoring, but I have also been trained in techniques for tutoring all subjects included in standardized tests, especially the SAT. My tutoring style comes from my firm belief that a student will grow when they genuinely have their interest piqued, and the best way to do that is for their instructor to genuinely show passion and interest in the subject in order to pass that excitement on to their...

...working with students, and I've found that the best way to teach them is by learning along with them. I have learned (or relearned) a lot of subject matter while working as a teacher, and this has helped me relate to students the best by understanding the learning process they are going through. My goal for students is for them to be confident with everything they learn and to know how to get the best...

I have worked as a teaching assistant of Math 155r (Combinatorics) at Harvard University, where I got my B.A. in Applied Mathematics in 2017, and will be teaching (most likely) Calculus starting in the fall of 2017, while I begin...

I have qualified for the National Speech...

...pursued a mathematics major (at St. Cloud University) in an effort to fulfill my desire to become a math teacher. Most of the decisions that I made throughout my life were influenced by my mentors. Now, I've been teaching for more than five years and have found a great fit with Connections Academy. I continue to focus on one important attribute to high teacher efficacy, which is the notion that even under the most extreme...

...years however I have been a middle and high school teacher. I have taught a large variety of subjects in that time though chemistry (all levels) and genetics are my favorite. I prefer to begin tutoring with a new student by asking a lot of questions to help me identify the key reasons for their struggles. Depending on the nature of their struggles I will then craft very guided practice or more fluid question and...

...for problems and areas of work where I feel I'm solving problems that will help enhance people's lives. The most challenging thing facing society right now is education. Education is the power of knowledge. With it, we can change the world we live in and create a better future. As a tutor, I can empower young adults by creating a base knowledge of concepts that they can apply to solve more complex problems. As a...
