STEM Tutor (Sep 2007 - Mar 2011)

Self Employed

I tutored several different subjects mostly utilizing mathematics and logic. They included Mathematics (Calculus, Discrete/Logic, Statistics), Chemistry, English, Physics, and Software Programming.

I would handle each student individually, beginning with a light assessment of where they would require help. I would then provide a very concise and specific lecture on the material, focusing on the fundamentals to ensure a proper understanding. I provided practice questions to supplement what I had taught, and then provide assistance remotely through email if it were required for their homework.

My students' education ranged from high school to the second year of university.
