Viewing credentialed tutors from Indiana University of Pennsylvania-Main Campus

...of Pittsburgh, and am a licensed teacher in the state of Virginia, where I have been teaching for several years. While my expertise is working with K-6 students in math, reading, writing and standardized test taking, I've tutored students K-12 on algebra, geometry, English (including all AP courses) and history courses. I'm also qualified as...

I received my degree in Special Education and Elementary Education at Indiana University of Pennsylvania. I moved down to Maryland from Pennsylvania three years ago and I love it!

...time at IUP I studied abroad in Nancy, France and completed an internship teaching English to elementary school French students. I have taught French ranging from introductory levels to CHS (college in high school) and have tutored French students of all ages in basic vocabulary, grammar, conversation, and more.

I believe education can be fun. The challenge is to work at an individual at his or her level. I do not talk down to students. I am dedicated to working with students until they have the "aha' moment!... Continue to reinforce the positive.... I evaluate through testing and basic review.... I discover their strengths as well as their weakness. From there, I shall guide them to use their strengths to bring up their weaknesses.

...my aspiration since I left secondary school! In my studies, I have found a passion for teaching, and have begun my second degree in Physics Education. My teaching experience started with instructing a local high school drum line (which I still pursue), and progressed to tutoring college students in physics. My philosophy on teaching is...

...zest for learning. My personal desire to put this knowledge to good use by helping to educate others is precisely why I became a teacher/tutor. Every single person on this Earth is capable of learning no matter what their age or circumstances; it is simply a question of effort. Through patience and persistence comes perseverance!

...communicative abilities and expand upon their background knowledge, so that they are able to increasingly take on more difficult assignments. I strongly believe that confidence is the key to succeeding in any subject. In combining high levels of confidence and a well-rounded education, one will have more opportunities for career, social, and personal growth. Outside...

I have a background in physics and mathematics, with additional focuses in Japanese, computer science, and economics. I have also worked previously as a public school teacher and graduate teaching assistant. I hope to help you with your subject concerns. ... The first thing to do in a primary session with a student is to identify what they are concerned with learning and why they are seeking the help of a tutor.

I have been teaching students for over ten years. I love to help students of all ages, of all learning types. I strive to encourage students and to motivate them to love learning any subject!... All teachers know that the individual students who come together in a course make up a unique dynamic; hence no two courses are the same. Consequently, flexibility is important to keep in mind. If I feel that I am not meeting my objectives, or if a lesson or activity does not seem to be working, I try something different. While it is rewarding to see student progress, to see engagement, self-realization, broadening, and student enjoyment of the course, teaching is also rewarding to me. This is one of the most important parts of teaching, for if the teacher is not enjoying the course, the students are not likely to enjoy it, either. Finally, for all that I hope my students take away from my courses, I always take away something, too. Even if this goal is a bit selfish, learning from my students is one of the best things about teaching, and I most certainly consider this a vital part of my teaching philosophy.

...knowledge should be supported without scrutiny. This, as opposed to passively accepting knowledge in the motivation of remembrance for evaluation. Curiosity, is what I believe to be a common trait of lifelong learners. This attitude toward all observable and non-observable aspects of life, is what I believe to be a main aspiration of education.
