Nick
Patient MIT grad: math (all levels) and science
- $80 / h
- Salem , Massachusetts ( 01970 )
- 15 miles
Does it sometimes seem that the solution to a problem is simply presented as a boring recipe where steps are memorized, without any context for where the concept fits in the "big picture"? Sometimes we have to just follow the recipe, but hopefully not blindly. I understand that there are different kinds of learners who have varied backgrounds and goals, and I try to understand any block from the point of view of the student. I very much enjoy the process of trying to motivate each idea, i... Read more

I graduated summa cum lauded from the environmental engineering program of a leading university in Belgium and received a full scholarship to attend Cornell University, where I graduated at the top of the engineering management program.

Christopher
Criminal Justice / Statistics / Math Tutor
- $75 / h
- 1 rating
- Marblehead , Massachusetts ( 01945 )
- 20 miles
I currently teach Criminal Justice courses including Statistics courses in addition to tutoring in math. My approach to teaching and tutoring is addressing individual needs and attempting to take the fear out of learning. This is especially true when dealing with statistics and/or math. I've found that many students come into statistics or math courses with a preconceived notion as to how they're going to do in the course based upon them simply "not being good at math." My approach is to use ... Read more
