...a test prep instructor, I taught SAT, SSAT, TOEFL, and GRE. Test Prep, as I have come to experience it does not mean the memorizing of 10,000 things. It is understanding that standardized tests are logic games, that they test nothing outside what you have already learned in school. The rub comes from the presentation,...

I served at the University of Texas at El Paso and New Mexico State University as a lecturer in Mathematical Sciences department. I got my Bachelor and Master degree in Pure Mathematics and also have nine years of experience in teaching all fields of Math to college and high school students.... As an instructor, I always try to care about every single student in class. It is important for me that how each one of them is following lectures. During the lectures, I usually put myself in a student's position to make sure that the material that I am teaching is based on their knowledge. My most important tool for effective teaching is promoting an interactive environment in classroom. I usually ask questions during lecture from at least 50 percent of students, especially students who are not following the class the way that I want, and I try to ask them questions in a way that they can answer it correctly. I know that most undergraduate students take many courses in a semester and they have a lot to do during the week. So, I try to not give them so much homework, which can make them confused. Each semester, after the first meeting hearing about the strategy of the course, I make a specific calendar for each course that I'm teaching. In this calendar, I write some comments for myself in each week of the semester, and these comments are from my experiences from past semesters. It helps me to remember during the semester in each week what the important things are related to my teaching. I usually avoid proof-based materials for undergraduate students. If there is any specific point in the book that needs proof, I try to explain it out of Theorem-Proof style for students, and I have seen that they really can make connections with this method. My evaluations from previous semesters show that most of the students are glad that they can see the improvements, and they also like that I spend more than enough time for their problems.
