My goal as a tutor is to use the material in your current course to help you or your child learn how to study more effectively. Being confident and well prepared is a valuable skill, but each person must discover their own best way to study. We'll find your best approach while focusing on the content of your math or science course (or the SAT). Practice tests and NCFEs (with answers) will give the confidence you or your child need to excel in class. My students are more likely to compare me ... Read more

I help them use their energy in a positive way by engaging them in hands-on activities,break up Read more

I taught ESL in China for 7 years to university students and did some tutoring as well. As much as I liked being in the classroom, I found tutoring an individual much more interesting because I was able to customize each session for the tutee and it involved using all kinds of resources. It was easier to determine what a student needed and the progress with tutoring situations than with a classroom situation. I am friendly and patient. My hobbies are cycling, running, and swimming. I... Read more

"I wish I would have known the things that I teach." I have taught at two universities, three community colleges and one liberal arts college. My strategy is to teach strategy, not facts. In my tutoring, I use a researched technique called "Fading." In this technique students are started with solved problems and gradually "faded" into solving problems themselves by removing more and more of the solution. This technique has been reported in several peer-reviewed journals and I have employed it... Read more
