...I get to know my students the best, as we talk through dreams, aspirations, and life experiences. I view education as a skill; education is not around to help us learn specific things, but rather education teaches us how to learn. Outside the classroom, I'm a well-traveled certified SCUBA diver who enjoys spending time kayaking and weightlifting. I also played ice hockey through college and performed as a classical pianist on campus and in Europe....

...I love numbers, and want you to as well! Beyond my background in math, I have several other interests as well. I have been a musician since the sixth grade when I first started playing the tuba.

...I developed lesson plans and projects that helped the students gain interest in science, as well as learn and understand science. I have also tutored students in math, reading, and language arts.

My lesson plans usually consist of worksheets and projects that focus on the area that is challenging for...

...meet with their teacher, clarify concepts the student needs more time on, explain concepts in alternative ways, and review the building blocks that the student needs to complete the tasks at hand. We'll work together so that your student gains skills and confidence. I've enjoyed working with preschoolers to middle schoolers, and high school students are a great group to interact with. Everyone has their own energy and personal story they bring to a relationship,...

I tutor kids of all ages, and specialize in those with ADD/ADHD, Dyslexia, Asperger's and Autism Spectrum Disorder, as well as those with emotional and cognitive disorders. My preferred subjects are test preparation (SAT, ACT, GRE, etc.), Math, Science, and English. ...

...I have two grown sons and a very spoiled mix breed dog. I have lived in Milwaukee all of my life but got a chance to experience living and working in another area - North Carolina - for several years. It's beautiful there.

...biggest passion is using CAD software to design prosthetic implants. I have been a math tutor since my sophomore year in high school, and it has always been so rewarding to help students understand material, from learning how to use the Pythagorean Theorem to calculating integrals. Being an engineer, I personally know the difference between what a good/bad teacher can provide to a student's learning experience. I aim to understand the student's learning style and...

...7th and 8th grade math and reading. Along with these two subjects, I also provide homework support, study and organization skills, and writing and essay editing. My ultimate goal in tutoring is to make sure the student generalizes the skills learned in the tutoring session and applies them to the real world on their own and with confidence. I also strive to build character and instill self-worth, as I believe this is valuable to becoming...

...a lover of learning, especially mathematics. I believe students learn best from people they like, so I always make it a point to build relationships with students and treating them with respect and dignity. I also believe that students learn through different means, so I differentiate instruction to meet the needs of the students.

I also completed a couple years of research in the Human Movement Performance Lab where I analyzed patient's walking patterns both pre- and post- total ankle replacement surgery.

I have been tutoring for 5 years, and I enjoy seeing students make progress in their studies. I'm very patient and I make math fun.

...and the chemistry of things! I have over 5 years of experience tutoring science at secondary and a college level. Ever since my undergraduate career, I knew I had a talent in teaching others what I know. As per recommendation from my professors, I started as a supplemental instructor for college chemistry-CHEM 1251! It was such a wonderful experience working with other students and helping them achieve their goals in mastering chemistry! After that, I...

...my Bachelors in Women's Studies and a minor in Chemistry. I have had the fortune of working on Public Health projects in Bangladesh, Panama, Honduras, and Thailand. The professional experience and exposure to so many vibrant cultures has been amazing in giving me a rounded view of the world.

...musicians to learn technique and musicianship. However, most people who take piano lessons will not advance to the upper levels of performing classical music and they do not continue to play piano as adults.

I have also studied jazz piano and jazz theory to teach more advanced students how to play blues piano. I have...

...degree, I know full well what's required to succeed in those subjects. I also know how to face the endless standardized tests and leave the battle in victory, not resignation. I've been speaking French since I was old enough to read and I have a Russian heritage that can help out with colloquialisms and grammar. Languages and linguistics are fascinating to me and I don't get to speak mine enough, so please speak them with...

...my education. Tutoring students with different cultural and academic backgrounds has taught me to implement an individualistic approach of teaching This method would help enable each of them to learn and understand the concepts rather than just memorize. While attending undergraduate and graduate school at the University of Missouri, I worked as a TA in a Medical Microbiology and immunology lab, this experience has exposed me to teach a group rather than individuals at once. It...

...purely because I enjoy it. Education has opened up so many doors for me, and this is largely because I was fortunate to have some amazing teachers growing up who made learning fun (or at the very least not miserable). My goal is to do the same for each one of the students who I work with, and find ways to make even the most abstract concepts or complex math problems "click" in a student's...

...grades-12. Teaching is and has always been my passion. However, the bureaucracy of the school systems sometimes make it very difficult for me to meet the true needs of my students, especially with the common one size fits all curriculum model. I truly believe that as I work with students, they begin to create their own curriculum based on their needs. I love tutoring because it gives me the opportunity to cut through the red...
