Organic Chemistry Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Alleyton, TX

I hold a Ph.D. in Chemistry and currently work as a research scientist discovering and developing new drugs to combat human diseases. As a graduate student, I served as a teaching assistant leading general, organic, and biochemistry tutorials and labs. For this, I was paid a teaching assistantship and was happy recipient of the 2005 Maeser Baeur Best Teaching Assistant award at the department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at USU. This award is based mostly on student evaluations of all the teaching assistants in the department. By the end of my first year as a teaching assistant, I began receiving several requests from students to serves as their private tutor. At the beginning I accepted to tutor because it gave me extra money. However, as time went by I found that the most satisfaction I got from tutoring was the joy and excitement I got from the voices of once struggling students c

Students come with various background and motivation levels and ways of learning. A tutor needs to be able to discover within the student the best way for that student to learn. I believe students should be pressed not to memorize facts but to use critical thinking skills, tying things together and seeing relations so a multitude of similar problems can be solved. There are many ways science can be taught. Over the years, I have found that tutoring works best by breaking the material down into mini lessons, give the students guided practice in solving problems (we solve it together), and then independent practice where the student demonstrates mastery of the concept. After receiving a PhD in chemistry from Purdue University I worked over 20 years in discovery research areas. I then turned to my calling of education and became a certified science teachers for grades 8-12. I taught midd

I love working with kids. I try to make things as simple as I can in hopes that the student will understand it. I think it is important to praise kids ( ex. good job) to boost their self esteem. It helps motive them to strive harder . My goal is to help students to excel in academics through my expertise so that they can build a solid foundation upon the knowledge that I have shared with them. I spent one year as a Headstart teacher. I have several years of substitute teaching experience working with different subjects and grades. I was a tutor throughout college. I just began tutoring again this year for CARE. I have recently tutored chemistry & biology.

I am a Cougars graduated and I have a bachelor’s degree in chemistry and minor in math graduating with A's in both areas. During college I tutored a lot of math courses from basic to upper level of calculus. I can speak a little Spanish and am fluent in Vietnamese I love to work with children. I had 2 of my own. I believe children can learn if you show them the direct way; as a math or chemistry tutor I use some easy techniques that children can learn and remember by; but basically just show them by examples. I believe that you have to understand the material well then explain to them the easy way to remember. With my experiences and education I can help them pass their class or move up one letter grade

I think it takes a lot for one teacher to reach all of types of students who are all at different levels of interest in the subject being taught as well as at different levels of understanding. However, I feel it is the teacher's responsibility to give them all equal opportunity to learn. It is not just about grades and assignments, that is just the means to an end, but it is about learning. In order for the students to learn, the teacher needs to be passionate about the students as well as the subject that is being taught. That will instill in the students a desire to learn and understand. In having a science background, I have not only learned laboratory skills and reasoning skills, but I have learned how to increase efficiency, communicate in a clear manner, and write in a way that is direct and clear. I enjoy learning, and I instill that passion into my students as best I can.

Throughout my undergraduate years, I was recognized as an outstanding student and held the maximum number of teaching assistant positions every semester. I often met students in the library to hold tutoring groups, and I handed out my phone number in case someone needed my help anytime. I am currently working on my teachers certification, and my long term goal is to teach high school science. I have a passion for education and science, and I believe that my purpose for benefiting humankind is to train the future men and women of our country. My preferred method of teaching is hands-on, through real experiments. Unfortunately, experiments cannot always be done, so I use lots of illustrations and age-appropriate analogies that are easy to relate to. Many times students are convinced that science is a subject too difficult to conquer, that they must just survive it, but science is all
