Derek
Specialty in teaching kids (like me) that struggled with math!
Hi! My name is Derek, & I love teaching. Thank you for supporting me! Does your student ask for help only to have the teacher tell them to look at their notes? Is online learning anything but? Does your student follow the 'steps' but has no idea WHY they're supposed to be doing what they're doing? Then I'm the teacher for you. Too often math teachers know their subject, but don't know how to teach it. They can do all the math without even thinking – and that’s the problem. That's why I be... Read more

- Bettendorf , Iowa ( 52722 )
- 10 miles
My Ph.D. is in Physiology and my minor is in Biochemistry. My B.S. is in Biology. I have 25 years of teaching experience in Physiology and Pathology. I believe that successful teaching is best accomplished through clear communication. My past college teaching experiences involved classes that typically had enrollments of over 150 students. Although large class instruction is fun and challenging, it lacks the one on one experience that allows an instructor to tailor the deliver of subject... Read more
