A large component of my graduate research utilized population genetics to answer fisheries questions. I successfully completed a B.S. in Marine Biology from the College of Charleston in 2004. During my undergraduate career I was able to participate in a research cruise at sea and conduct independent research. I later worked for the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources, Marine Resources Division, conducting research in a variety of fields including mariculture and stock enhancement. In 2006 I began the graduate program in Marine Biology at the College of Charleston. While there, I taught two semesters of Molecular Biology Lab as a Teaching Assistant. Currently, I am a Research Analyst at Duke University in the Neurobiology Department. Part of my responsibilities include teaching concepts and lab techniques to undergraduate work-study students.

I tutored middle school and high school students in math when I was in a high school, specifically algebra I and II, as well as SAT prep. In college, I helped students in calculus, biology, and statistics, as these are the primary focus of my undergraduate degree. I was also a Resident Advisor for 3 years, which lent itself to helping students with coursework as well as college life. Finally, in Michigan, I tutored master's level students in their statistics courses, both individually and in study groups.

I have participated in many study groups where I actively contribute information on the topic of interest; there we help each other and teach each other. Also, I'm the oldest sibling of four, I have had many years of helping out with homework and tutoring in reading, writing and math. My education consisted of diverse studies and I learned a great deal of mathematics and sciences. Also, naturally I use proper grammar and have a good hand for writing. I am a very creative person and can come up with unique topics. I'm also very artsy and appreciate a good hands on experiment.

I enjoy working with children of all age ranges, and it is my personal goal to make learning a difficult subject less of a chore. I believe that having extra help can make a world of difference in academic success and increase the overall confidence and attitude in a child, as I am very aware myself, having had math tutors when I was in high school. My ambition as a tutor is to give your child the same enjoyment that I experienced in learning Chemistry and English. I am patient and dedicated and I strive for excellence—in my tutoring style I am open and willing to use different approaches to teach if needed. I ask questions and also try to tutor with a similar style to the student's teacher, which can be a critical tool during test taking. Being a student at UNC Chapel Hill has challenged and inspired me to think creatively and achieve excellence in all areas of academia. As a senior at

My experience began as a tutor in college and upon graduating I taught eighth grade science, high school sciences (biology, physical and earth), community college level biology (I and II) and biotechnology. I have a MS in Biology (research/thesis and study focus in biochemistry) and have tutored students in mathematics and English. I have experience teaching exceptional children (TBI, ADD, ADHD, BD, AG or GT) and volunteered with Head Start for years. As a tutor my initial focus is identifying the students strengths and applying them when addressing areas where the student has a deficit. It is important to motivate the student in order to give confidence in their ability to face academic challenges. The key is to establish or enhance the foundation of student learning by developing a positive relationship with developing dependency. It is also important that the student develops tra

Teaching is a noble profession that has always been an important part of my life. Both my grandmother and mother taught. Teaching is trying to impart not only knowledge but a love of learning to the student. I motivate students to learn, and I also help them to defy the odds no matter their situation or ability. It is important to me to ensure that the student understands the subject matter at all times. Not all students are the same and so my style of teaching varies in order to make an impact on the student. I remain patient with students and respect them. As an educator, I work hard to guarantee my students success and encourage them to believe in themselves. I worked as a laboratory assistant student supervisor in the Biology and Chemistry Laboratories of the Saint Leo University Mathematics and Sciences Department for two years. I was the liaison for professors and students, and

When graduating from Hampton University, I never expected to end up teaching high school science. After receiving my BS in Biology, I went on to NC State to obtain a teaching certification in Science. After the past 3 years in the classroom, I have found a love in teaching and enjoy engaging my students. During the past, I have worked with and tutored in a variety of subjects including, math, english, and history with a wide range of students from 2nd grade up to 12th grade. High academic achievement is of the utmost importance to me, and I will do my best in ensuring that every student that I come in contact with will be afforded the opportunity to succeed. By giving each child fair and equal access to education and supplying daily motivation will offer each student the option of success. As a teacher, I have a commitment to be competent, professional, caring and an effective educator.

I believe that information accessibility should be emphasized and placed in bold. I would consider my style personable, compassionate, and driven to excel. I like to bring humor and discussion into the arena. If it's just me talking, how does it benefit the student if they do not feel they have the ability to rebut or 'think out loud?' New ideas and processes of interpretation are enabled in both the student and the teacher through a live and ever-changing dialogue. I realize that in the 'classroom proper' not everyone will have the 'eureka' experience. That is why the teacher must enable the students to make the connections themselves through collaboration, small projects, various 'out-of-the-classroom events/activities, and self-motivated inquiries. Once the information has been perceived by the student as important, he/she will want more to do with it. The information age has brought

I have been tutoring since I was 13 years old. Parents of my peers always approached me to teach their son or daughter. After I completed high school with a 4.0 GPA I was hired at a professional tutoring school. There I worked for nearly 10 years with a loyal student base many of whom I taught the entire time. I taught kids from when they were in elementary school all the way until high school. Some students were ineligible to go to normal school so I was their only teacher for years. In that time I managed to get these students up to 4 years ahead in certain subjects like math and science. I've also taught students that could not even speak english when they came to me and in a short amount of time they were fluent. Teaching to me is about relating the information to the students in a way they can understand. It is very important to make the material relevant to their lives some

I believe my role as a teacher is to establish an environment that promotes the development of students to the maximum extent limited only by their talents and desires. A challenging aspect of this role is helping students identify their talents and encourage their desire for learning. Toward this end, I believe it is necessary to develop a relationship with each student which will allow me to serve in multiple roles: facilitator, adviser, task master, teacher, role model, and friend. As a current tutor for Kaplan, I am involved with teaching future dentists how to prepare for the Dental Admission Test (DAT). Teaching prospective dental school applicants how to master this standardized test involves teaching not only test taking strategies, but also the mastery of large volumes of information. The DAT tests knowledge in the following areas: biology, chemistry, organic chemistry, rea

My experience with learners, has taught me that success begins with an engaged learner. To engage learners, I help them to identify learning goals and factors that motivate them to pursue these goals. I also help them to understand how their academic pursuits relate to current and future life experiences. Once engaged, I draw from each learner's unique style to achieve success. To discover a learner's style, I utilize creative methods of explaining and exploring concepts. I am very enthusiastic and strive to make learning an enjoyable and rewarding experience. I take personal responsibility for the success of my learners and feel that if I have done my job properly they are guaranteed desirable results. I enjoy sharing the joy of learning, and equip learners with skills that empower them to further their learning goals independently long after our encounters have ended. My previo

I love working with students. I believe all students want to do their best and can do so if given the best motive. I motivate my students first by letting them discover their potential.I excite students learning by helping them use what they know to understand difficult concepts. I believe learning as "I wonder" but not "I do". I stimulate student's mind to to wonder about concepts thereby understanding concepts instead of memorizing. Though different students have different ways of learning, I believe I can meet every student's learning needs. I'm Biology/Anatomy & Physiology Teacher.
