Artesian, SD Computer Tutors

Description: When Stephen tutors, he utilizes Vygotsky's scaffolding method, as well as the "Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD)" method, to ensure maximum effectiveness in learning. He also uses the theory of Bloom's Taxonomy to hone in on the learning style of the student in order to maximize the effects of study. Stephen continually encourages an excitement in learning, and demonstrates this excitement as he tutors.
Stephen's tutoring philosophy: "My job is not to be the expert. My job is to condition the student to be the expert."      << View Less

Description: At its most fundamental level, I believe that teaching is about engaging and inspiring the mind. It is about introducing students to a conceptual framework with which they can begin to, in a deep and profound way, understand. As a university lecturer, I have had the opportunity of helping hundreds of students realize their own potential and improve their grades and test scores. 
I specialize in tutoring math, physics, mechanical engineering courses (for Bachelor's Students), engineering software. Whether we are working on Calculus or sophisticated engineering problems, I try to provide an interesting situation each session. 
I try to be flexible with time, and as I really consider to help the students learn, I never bill a session in which the students or parents are not completely satisfied.
I look forward to hearing from you and helping you to succeed.      << View Less
