Blackduck, MN Math Tutors

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

Description: Hi,

If you are in search of a preeminent tutor then you have reached the right person. I have a teaching experience of more than 5 years in math to students of various grades (K-12th). I have also tutored students preparing for SAT/ACT, GRE, SSAT etc and have had great results. Many of my students have increased their scores by more than 40% in their exams.

I believe that solving a problem shouldn't be the only goal but understanding the concept behind that is very important. If the basics of any student is well built up then he can grasp anything easily and wouldn't be afraid even if he sees a totally unknown problem in front of him. He will always have the courage to try. So making the student believe that what he is facing isn't a problem but a challenge makes the problem look much easier and changes the entire perspective of that student towards that subject.

I have taught students in one-to-one,group and online methods. Also for students who have very less time to prepare with a lot of topics to cover I can help you with the Crash Course where you will get to learn and understand the entire subject along with a lot of practice in a very short time.

I have done my Bachelor's from India at the Birla Institute of Technology & Science,Pilani. Currently I am pursuing my Master's at Northeastern University. I am young, enthusiastic and a friendly person on whom you can completely rely and I can assure you the best result.

PS: Please feel free to contact me via phone or mail in-case if you need any references or have any questions.      << View Less
