"Dear potential student!
I've tutored for many years, even while working crazy hours as a management consultant. I tutor because I love teaching. My happiest moments are when students come to me and tell me how well they've done.
I have experience tutoring at the middle and high school level. At these levels I've taught math, chemistry and physics. At the college level I've taught math. I've taught professionals of all ages applying to grad school in the GMAT and GRE.
At the middle and high school levels, my approach is to follow the curriculum of the school (and go beyond if the curriculum is weak.) At this level it is a combination of working though foundation concepts and doing practice exercises. I am a strong believer in practice makes perfect at this level. It teaches students the different tricks of problems solving that they can then apply to more difficult problems. I myself took the IB exams and scored 7/7 in HL math, chemistry and physics as well as 800 in SAT I/II math and SAT II chemistry so I understand what it takes to do well at this level.
At the college level, my approach is to follow the curriculum and working on foundations and exercises given to students. I like to work through the concepts and then example problems, then allow students to attempt their homework before helping.
With standardized tests, my general approach is working through questions that students have difficulty with and generalizing the approach for similar problems. It is rarely a matter of poor foundations.
I have an engineering background (EECS) and understand the importance of learning the foundations of any subject. With practice and hard work I think most everybody can excel at most any subject. I hope you give me the chance to work with you or your kids!
I have an excellent grasp of the fundamentals and love to transmit that information. I have over 10 years of tutoring experience. I have experience with maths at all levels having taken the International Baccalaureate Math (HL) exam" less...
