Chemistry is one of my top subjects!

I am currently an undergraduate student with a major in chemistry. I have been tutoring for more than five year. Most of my students are fifth to twelfth graders. I coached a first-place middle school Science Bowl winning team of 2012 at Charlotte. I also judged and coached the students of the math and science fairs.

A Little Bit About Me...

I attained my first degree in Supply Chain Management from Syracuse University in 2003. After working in that field for a few years, however, I chose to change my career path. I then went back to school at the City College of New York to pursue a degree in Civil Engineering. I am happy to say that I am graduating this month (December 2010), and have not regretted pursuing this second degree at all. Through my college experiences I have completed over 220 credits in many subjects, with my strongest in the math, sciences and engineering.
Attaining two degrees has opened my eyes to many different teaching styles and ways of learning. I believe that the most effective way to learn and teach is to explain concepts and theories thoroughly before any application of these concepts. I believe that in order to really learn a subject, and not just memorize it, the theory must be underst ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am a trained Science Teacher specializing in Biology, Chemistry and Physics. I have over twelve years of High School teaching experience where I prepared students for external exams in Chemistry, Physics and Biology in my native country of Jamaica. The success rate was over 90%. I have tutored both adults (preparing for their GED and LPN exams in Math and English) and young adults (preparing for college exams) during the last four years.
Teaching is a skill that I have mastered and I have been successful at finding a fun way of getting students to learn. I like to introduce activities that are practical to the subject so the student understands the concept and therefore have a better understanding of the topic being covered. I am available to help anyone who needs help in finding academic success. I am patient, considerate and will use all available resources to get the stu ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy helping students understand the principles they are dealing with, rather than focusing on helping them simply "get the answer" to the problem at hand. My goal is for them to be able to generalize the concept and apply it in different contexts. To develop interest, I seek to discuss related information or similar problems as much as possible. For Physics in particular, this approach is key to providing a sound foundation for future learning.
Most of my career has been spent at IBM, where I built on my Physics background for a broad range of opportunities. I am now seeking to move into a teaching career and plan to start a Masters in Teaching in the Fall of 2009. During my educational development, I taught for three years in undergraduate and graduate school as part of the duties of a teaching Assistant. I have tutored secondary school students for the last 5 years in M ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My educational philosophy is based on the fact that individuals learn differently, and this has led to the practice of instructing using alternative methods. Since true learning occurs when students are in a trustworthy environment, I find creativity and flexibility to be an asset in both constructing such an environment and determining how each student will take responsibility for their education. Furthermore, young people must be provided with experiential opportunities that foster the creation of their own connections, and my patience helps me to act as a facilitator, allowing this essential learning process to occur.

More About This Tutor...

While completing my teaching degree I taught for three years with troubled youth. Subjects were regents level and the subject was earth science and algebra or course I as it is called in NY. I have also taught Summer school at the Allen Center in South Kortright which can be a tough crowd to work with. During my undergraduate studies I tutored chemistry and biology. I also taught 8th grade physical science in Prince George Virgina.
In science and math the learner has to practice much like learning to play a musical instrument. It helps if you can bring real world applications into the classroom so it is meaningful to the students otherwise they feel like they are learning something just for the cause of learning.

More About This Tutor...

For six years as a college professor or lecturer and five years as a graduate student teaching assistant, I have found teaching chemistry to be the most enriching facet of my scientific career. Of my many experiences, however, I have found none quite as demanding or reciprocal in reward as a lecturer at the University of New Hampshire and then an assistant professor at Hartwick College. Having forty students observing you and learning from you for fifty minutes each class is quite formidable. For the past six years, teaching has been tough and dynamic, but the reward of taking part in student learning is worth the effort.
Through teaching at UNH and at Hartwick, I have developed a cogent teaching strategy. First, incorporation of everyday examples is critical for students. When students are shown how concepts discussed in class can be applied to everyday situations, they become ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have several years experience working with children and adults in the education field. The students I have taught at the college level ranged from late teens to early 30s. As I have worked with such a wide range of ages I am familiar with the needs of students in each age group I have taught. I work with the student to understand the areas in which they are not as strong or confident and work with them to develop a method of studying and learning that works best for them. I believe that one of the most beneficial methods of learning material is to relate the material to something the student may be more familiar with or something with which they can relate.
I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Biology from the State University of New York at SUNY New Paltz and I have matriculated into the Master of Arts in Biology program at the same university. As a result of my many ... read more
