Teaching, and Tutoring
The following is my current, or previous teaching experience:
- University of Manitoba (April 2012 - Current) - Sessional Instructor
(Department of Computer Science)
- COMP1260 - Introductory Computer Usage 1 (May 2012 - August 2012)
- Western Canada Aviation Museum (November 2011 -
Current) - Museum Interpreter
- Conducts tours, and educational programs under the Take Flight Program.
- Hosts birthday parties, which entails the tour, activities, and facilitating the event.
- Mad Science (September 2011 - April 2012) -
Science Instructor
- Lunch Hour, and After-school science programs.
- Maximum of 20 students ranging from grades one to six.
- Programs range from 6 to 8 week programs.
- One hour classes that meet weekly.
I tutor through my personal services, but also I have in the past with Tutoring Works . In the past and currently I offer services by the following methods:
-
One-on-One tutoring.
-
Group tutoring.
-
Remote, or Online Tutoring (via live digital stream).
My services are offered to students in the home, or on campus, at my home (locally, or remotely). I have experience tutoring all kinds of students, and have a passion for explaining the 'why' questions which are important, that barely get touched at certain levels in the formal sciences. I provide deep, but simple explanations but can readily provide more formal explanations as necessary. I have over four years of tutoring experience in the following scientific fields:
-
Computer Science
-
Mathematics
-
Physics
-
Statistics
I have tutored the following courses in the past:
Secondary School Level:
-
Grade 10 Pre-Calculus
-
Grade 11 Pre-Calculus
-
Grade 11 Physics
-
Grade 12 Pre-Calculus
-
Grade 12 Physics
-
Introduction to Calculus/Advanced Math
Post Secondary School Level:
I have tutored for students for the following courses at this level:
Red River College
University of Manitoba
If you are interested in services from me, please contact me by my e-mail, or my phone number. I am not just limited to the topics above.
I am able to cover many subjects ranging from software applications, to programming, to other mathematical discourses. In terms of my main interests, I do not go past entry university physics, and I much prefer discrete mathematics (so if you are needing assistance in a discrete mathematics course (any) I can do those, based on the topics). I am always interested in learning more concepts, or to share my knowledge on a subject. If you have any questions, let me know!
