Having been favored with a BS in mechanical engineering, as well as power plant and laboratory experience, our algebra sessions will impart a "down-to-earth", visual sense of how the graphical equations work. The mx + b relation, for example, has two "knobs" -- "m" is the slope or amplifier/gain knob and "b" is the offset dial. I've enjoyed teaching thousands of sessions since the late 1980's, both in large classes and in the home on a wide variety of topics. Good teachers care about people, are good examples, know their subject, and are terribly interesting. That's what I aim to provide. ... More

Hi, My name is Amanda and I am a student at Virginia Tech studying Psychology. I love the subject and find it fascinating. As a tutor I would expect my students to be able to provide notes or books that they are using in the class so that I can help them using the materials they are expected to use. My style is more interactive than structured. I prefer to talk things out so that the student may have a better understanding. I like to ask a lot of questions because I believe that this can hel... ... More

I have a love for all things history and religion. Not only do I find them terribly interesting, I also find teaching them to be very fun. I'm very laid back and want to bolster your child's inherent love of history by taking the subject in a way few teachers will teach. Not only is history about statistics and dates, but also about the people who lived through these events. Giving a student context about the people being studied gives a backbone to caring about the event, not only for a test... ... More

I graduated from Ocean Lakes High School's Math and Science Academy with an advanced studies diploma.
