First -Meet the student, Assess the strength and weakness of the student. Second Using the students strength strategy work on the weakness. I believe in doing, for example assignments, lectures have to be interactively approached and conducted independently by the student at all times.

My comments on tutoring Science : I received my BS in Biological Sciences with a minor in Chemistry with honors in 2010. I have a strong science background and understanding.

I have tutored one-on-one as well as to large groups. My focus is on college level science classes. I feel that bringing creative and unique methods to learning helps student overcome their dispassion or fear. My sessions aim to be positive and motivating. Although I have won numerous awards for my creativity, and presentation methods, the greatest reward have been the smiling faces of my students after the course when they brag about their final grades. Let me show you that you can succeed in science.

More About This Tutor...

I have volunteered as a tutor/mentor/teachers aid, full time, from 1983 through 1989. I returned to college and received my Bachelor's Degree in Accounting in 1993 and passed the CPA exam in 1994, receiving my license to open my own firm in 1999. I continue to coach and mentor my clients in the finer and larger points of accounting.
My "style" is whatever the student needs. Since each level of education has its own complications, and each student has a different learning capability, my approach must be flexible. I basically reword and redefine until I can see the proverbial light bulb go off. That is the greatest satisfaction in the world!

I have always been a patient teacher and have learned that each child has there own learning style. To better tutor a child, they need to be able to learn in their own style. I understand this and will do my best to target their style to allow them to learn in a way that is easy and fun for them. I try to apply what is being learned into every day life to keep the interest in the subject, I feel that to learn the student needs to understand that the subject really is important in everyday life.
Throughout college, I was a substitute teacher at the local elementary and middle school where I worked with the children in the classroom environment. I also worked one on one with children that were having a difficult time in their classwork. I was also a tutor to the middle school and lower high school students during my Junior and Senior year of high school. I earned a BA degree in ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Although my BS has a concentration in environmental science, I have taken elementary teaching classes during my undergrad at ESF. I have gained experienced in several subject areas during my career including: Math, Science, and Writing.

I really enjoy helping people who are struggling with certain concepts or subject areas. Ever since high school I have liked to help friends and classmates in this way. I am very patient and understand the everyone learns in different ways, I like to try to find a different way of looking at things to help the tutee understand. I believe tutoring is a very rewarding profession, it is a great feeling when someone you have tutored gets to see their grades and confidence improve.

It is very important to me that my students have fun while they are learning. Much of my teaching is done through games and hands-on experiences. I also firmly believe in the use of technology (computers) to help teach and reinforce concepts being taught. Every child has strengths and it is important to build upon those strengths.
I am currently a sixth grade teacher at a Catholic Elementary School. I have been with the same school for the past 14 years. My experience there has been in the following grade levels: Pre-School, First Grade, Fourth Grade, Sixth Grade, Seventh Grade Math & Science, and Eighth Grade Math & Science. I have also tutored students in grades three through six in both reading and mathematics.

I spent five semesters tutoring students at the Study Center at Southampton College. In my professional life I have a great deal of experience in manufacturing, including positions as a Plant Chemist and a R&D Chemist.
I enjoy teaching, especially on a one-to-one basis. I firmly believe that the more interactive teaching is, the more effective it is, and therefore, there is greater retention.
