When we are struggling, we often blame ourselves or our own insufficiencies. However, I strongly believe that no student is "slow" ill suited to the subject; rather, students who are struggling need a little support and an adult who is eager to invest time and energy into their success. In a tutorin...

Jessica

Academic Coaching Tutor • +68 Subjects

Hello! I am a graduate of Tennessee State University (Spanish & Psychology) and Argosy University (Human Services). I am currently working on my Master's in Psychology with a certificate in Applied Behavioral Analysis on my way to earning my PhD in Psychology. I LOVE learning and sharing that knowledge with others! I have found that one of the most effective ways to learn a subject and retain the knowledge of it is to teach it to someone else! I love to educate others because I enjoy learning new things and I know that in a regular classroom, often teachers don't have the time to cater to each individuals learning styles, weak points and general needs so I get to do that in my one on one tutoring sessions. I take time to get to know each student and work with them in the way that they learn best!

Jeremy

Algebra Tutor • +44 Subjects

I am student at Wright State University (WSU) in Dayton Ohio. I just finished up a Bachelor of Science in physics and graduated in September 2015. I love the challenges in my coursework and the sense of accomplishment I experience when I'm able to apply my knowledge to research or teaching. At WSU I had an exciting opportunity to teach a few of the general physics lab sections for the Physics Department as a student employee. The labs I taught each semester from January 2013 to May 2015 corresponded to General Physics (I) and (II). The experiences I had teaching developed my ability to communicate and share my knowledge with less experienced students. I know how to approach teaching in a way that allows students to actually leave the course with a sense of accomplishment and having learned something useful. I am currently available for and enjoy tutoring the following subjects: Math, Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Algebra 3/4, Pre-calculus, Calculus 1, and Differential Equations.My approach to teaching emphasizes conceptual understanding, the development of critical thinking skills as well as problem solving skills. These aspects of learning are essential for anyone wishing to become a competent professional in a technical field like physics, engineering or mathematics, or anyone else required to tackle similarly technical courses.

Meredith

ACCUPLACER Elementary Algebra Tutor • +24 Subjects

I firmly believe that ANYONE CAN EXCEL in mathematics! I believe in my students, and Id love the opportunity to help you believe in yourself (or your child in his- or herself) too.Though I first began tutoring when I was a senior in high school, I have since gained formal teaching experience in Geometry, Algebra, and 7th & 8th grade math. It is with pride that I share I was the sole math teacher responsible for my school meeting the mathematics standards for 7th & 8th grade for the first time in ten years! As a military spouse, my teaching career met with some frustrations due to the short stays and frequent relocation required by my husbands work, and I now find satisfaction dispelling math phobia from the privacy of my own home while enjoying the flexibility of tutoring students in grades K-12 from all over the globe, and I have done so for the past five years. As a stay-at-home doggie momma, I have lots of availability to tutor during the morning, afternoon and late afternoon hours during the week.Though I am competent to tutor any discipline of mathematics, Geometry is hands-down my favorite by virtue of its visual nature and all the fun, practical applications with which it is associated, followed closely by Algebra I & II. I have been told that my teaching style appeals most to students in grades 5-12, and I enjoy providing insights to students in these grades regarding career opportunities and the practical, real-world applications that exist for the content they are learning. I have the most experience tutoring these subjects as well as middle & elementary school math; these are where my strengths as a mathematics educator reside.Although I should have studied mathematics from the very beginning, my first bachelors degree from Tufts University is actually in Classical Studies and Community Health. Following that, I attended Case Western Reserve University School of Law, which was NOT the right fit for me! However, the subjective nature of law and of law school taught me a new respect for mathematics and its objectivity; I find the fact that there are definite answers in mathematics at which you WILL arrive if you follow the steps correctly very comforting in this world of uncertainty. After law school, I returned to my love of mathematics, earned a bachelors degree in Mathematics & Secondary Mathematics Education, and later went on to earn a Master's Level endorsement in Secondary Mathematics Education as well.My tutoring style involves encouraging students to share their questions, fears, and concerns about the problems they are encountering with their math in an approachable, relaxed, and sometimes even entertaining environment and keeping them engaged throughout the learning process. Using a series of leading questions, I like to draw them into the problem-solving process, enabling them to arrive at the solutions largely on their own. This has an invaluable impact upon bolstering their confidence in the subject matter as well as themselves. Not all students learn the same way, so I tailor my instruction to suit the variety of different learning styles of my individual students. To avoid the frustrated when am I going to use this? Im never going to use this! concerns students possess, I relate the concepts they are learning to real-life applications to provide context and help them see the importance of those skills. I like to challenge my students to reach their full potential: how will we know the greatness they are capable of achieving until we inspire them to try?
