I'm currently a Master's student at Columbia University studying actuarial science. At Fairfield I spent time at a local elementary school, gaining some hands-on experience teaching the children and helping them with their homework. We accomplished what we needed to in a lighthearted but timely fashion which kept them focused and engaged throughout the class. With m... Read more

Certified and Experienced! Specializing in English and MAth
About a decade ago I graduated from college. I was a sharp kid (I graduated with honors) but I didn't have much direction. I fell into finance (that was the thing for sharp kids to do at the time) and after some ups and downs, I decided that career path wasn't for me. Between that point and the present there was a teacher shortage, and I got recruited to teach math and special education. In exchange for spending a few years at a high need school in the city, the state paid for my graduate deg... Read more

I am an experienced chemistry tutor looking for students!
As both a tutor and a TA I really enjoy working with determined students who want to learn. I believe that a lot of students think they are bad at chemistry because their instructors have not taught them properly. I like to try to get students to understand why chemistry is important and interesting before starting on any particular subject. With this method I've managed to have students who hated chemistry in the beginning come to appreciate it by the end of their course. When it comes to... Read more

I was a Chinese teacher for almost ten years in China. I hope to be a teacher or tutor again because I like kids and I like to communicate with people. As a language teacher, I know very clearly that kids in America are different than kids in China when they study Chinese. To do a better job in America, I was trained and got the Senior International Chinese Language Teachers Certification, which was authenticated by the Chinese Language Teachers Association....

For the the last three years I have been teaching at a Sunday school in Maryland. Working with kids on language, reading, writing and history has given me such a passion. I used many techniques depending on the students age and needs. For instance some of my younger students create an Alphabet time line to refer back to when forgetting a letter while reading or spelling. For handwriting, dotted lines in the shape of a letter have proven to help guide children in connecting the dots and creating the letters. I like to keep things fun and enjoyable to promote growth.
