Biology is one of my top subjects! I am a pre-professional student in Medicine at the University of Illinois - Urbana/Champaign majoring in Chemistry and Biology and have taken Molecular and Cellular Biology. I ended up getting an A with the highest score on the final exam in a classroom of 800 student.

I am a 4.0 student and I have tutored many courses in Mathematics, Chemistry, and Biology at the University of Illinois - Urbana/Champaign. I enjoy teaching and am excited to help you understand the material to get an A in the course. Furthermore, I can help you develop important study skills in these subjects so you can excel in more advanced science courses in the future. In Mathematics, I have taken all courses up to Calculus III and I am very proficient in those subjects. In Chemistry, my major, I have finished all of my general Chemistry requirements in College, so Inorganic Chemistry is my specialty. Similarly, I have finished all of my general Molecular and Cellular Biology requirements.

Biology is one of my top subjects! Received an A in Biology at Richland Community College in 2010, and received the distinguished award "Most Outstanding Biology Student of the Year" for 2010/2011 Academic School Year within the college. I also received a B in Microbiology the same year. I plan to continue my education in Molecular and Cellular Biology, and eventually Neurobiology.

I am a visceral teacher. I like to use illustrations whenever possible, videos, photographs, drawings... I like making connections to things that may seem unrelated - I think this strengthens neuro-pathways and thought processes. I also think that laughter stimulates learning, so I like students to feel at ease - I will make myself look dumb if it will make someone laugh and relax.
I am a natural teacher - it's what I do when I'm not getting paid. I just like to share knowledge of what, why, when, where, and how. I like the process of learning, and it is a privilege to get to witness, or even positively influence, that process in someone else. I have been paid for my teaching skills for the past 9 years, in various settings, including piano instruction, guitar instruction, tutoring at the Community College in Chemistry, Biology, and Microbiology, as well as assist teaching for ... read more

When I tutor I try and understand where they are having trouble and try to find the best way of explaining in a way that is beneficial to the student.
While at Springfield College I started tutoring some of my fellow students in the areas of math and science for a little extra cash. I have always wanted to mimic the kind of tutoring I received as a struggling math student in middle school. I was never the best at math until I started to receive tutoring and everything started to click. The extra help I got in math was essential to my studies at the university level and all my previous coursework leading up. I want to be that tutor who helped everything click.

I am Naga Durga from Hyderabad city which is a cosmopolitan city(amalgam of all religions,languages,people) in India(unity in diversity).Since childhood i always wanted to set myself aside from the crowd in all the activities. So after my graduation I worked for social organizations like "Save the children" and "Helpage India".I gave my precious time and voluteer service for these NGOs as i believed that today's children are tomorrow's future generation helping in building the nation and if not guided they may turn into thiefs(behind bars) or anti-social elements with destructive minds.And Hyderabad being a metro city is very prone to child trafficking and child labour.And I am glad that I got an opportunity to serve those abandoned old parents who have put there complete heart and soul in building their children's career.The satisfaction which I got from this service made me feel uni ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a student-athlete at Illinois State University, I learned many invaluable skills. I received a Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Physics as well as minors in both Mathematics and Exercise Science. Earning this degree as well as two minors has allowed me to gain a large amount of knowledge in both science and math. Being a student-athlete also taught me great leadership, hard work, teaching and time management skills. In my final year at Illinois State University, I taught a physics lab course. I have also spent many years coaching which has enabled me to teach concepts in a variety of ways in order to reach many different types of learners.
I have really enjoyed teaching through coaching. Throughout my coaching career, I have worked with all different types of athletes who each learn things a little bit differently. Because of this, I have been able to practice presenting i ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I believe that each and every student has an ability to learn and it is necessary to find a method of teaching conducive to the individual. For example, I was a student that learned though hands on activities and writing. Having a teacher stand and lecture never appealed to me. Other children, and adults, may be more apt to retain through reading or repetition. It is important to identify a student’s strengths and weaknesses in order for them to get the most out of their academic careers. I am a very patient person and have a wide range of teaching strategies.
I have had practical experience working as a microbiology level I technician for a major pharmaceutical company. My primary duties included many of the bench chemistry and laboratory biology techniques from college. I have completed one year of post bachelor's education at Illinois State University and am currently one ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated from Illinois State University in 2009 with a BS in Biological Sciences and I am currently working towards my certificate in teaching secondary education. I have experience teaching in lab settings, community college classrooms as well as tutoring at the high school and middle school level.
I am passionate about Biology and have a lot of fun teaching it. I aim to make studying biology interesting to students and hopefully fun for them too. I believe that, with just a little help, anyone can learn Biology content and maybe even learn something they can use outside of the classroom!

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe in using the environment and the interests of the child to teach any subject. It is important to capture the interest of the child so they are motivated to learn. Each child learns in different ways so I adapt my teaching style to meet the needs of the child. I believe in developing creative and engaging lessons. My ultimate goal is to have children succeed in education based on their abilities and learning experiences.
I received my Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education. I have endorsements in Science, Language Arts, and Social Science. I student taught 1st grade and spent the 2008-2009 school year as a Teaching Assistant for two Kindergarten classrooms. During my time as a student teacher and teaching assistant I have worked with students individually, small groups, and as a whole group. I have a lot of experience with teaching reading using phonemic awarene ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is one which engages the student actively in the learning process. I have used the "popcorn" technique in a classroom, where I call out "popcorn", then call on someone at random. This ensures that each student in the class is following, or else they lose their turn to read. If I'm working w/ a student w/ poor reading skills, I allow them to read, and help them w/ the difficult words, encouraging them to sound out the word. I also try to engage models, and kinestetics, in the learning process. One picture=1,000 words, and one model = 1,000 pictures. I also use these techniques in teaching mathematics.
In college, I was a peer tutor in Math, Physics, Biology, and Chemistry. I have sub-taught for CUSD 5, and CUSD 87, for 3 years. I have a Illinois Type 09 Certification, which is currently valid in McLean County. I have good grammar skills, and very good mathe ... read more

Teaching has always been my passion. To be equiped for that, I went to school and earned a BS in Sciences of education. This degree not only prepares me to teach subjects like French, history, math, but also it helps me to perform school administration work. I have also earned a Master's Degree in Leadership Studies from Lincoln Christian University which not only enables me to tutor but also to mentor. Because I grew up in a country where French is the language in which I did all my studies, I have mastered the language and spent the last ten years tutoring students in the language.
My knowledge in the area of psychology of education helps me greatly understand that everybody has a different learning style. If everybody has a different learning style, teaching cannot perform in an uniform manner. It must be varied in order to meet every student's need. Being an educator I know som ... read more

Children are the future. All throughout history, life has all been about things to pass on to the future generation. I am here to ensure that one day your children will have things to pass on as well. I am patient, laid back, and self-less. My dream is to be at the best of my ability. Kids always have people they look up to and I feel I can provide that desired role model. Kids can reach maximum potential if they receive proper encouragement, work hard, show respect, and can have fun. Looking back, I'm sure we can all see the people that taught us, and remember the ones that helped us the most. My purpose to provide that to all of my student's lives.

I have recently completed student teaching and have earned my teaching certificate as an art specialist. I have had the privilege of working with a diverse range of students at different levels with varying abilities. I have had internships at the high school and elementary levels, with time spent both in the art classroom as well as the special education classroom. As a substitute teacher, I learned to manage an array of classrooms and assumed all duties of a regular classroom teacher. While working for a day camp, I organized and led activities for diverse students ranging from age five to fifteen. All experiences have made me knowledgeable and sensitive to the diverse cultural, social and learning needs of school-age children.
I believe teaching is my calling. I love sharing my enthusiasm for learning with others. I am a great motivator and my goal is to inspire every child ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Being very active in higher education, I find myself taking on the roles of educator often. I have a strong background in the natural sciences with a BS in Horticulture, MS in Crop & Soil Environmental Science and PhD in Environmental Design and Planning. Throughout my education I have also written many technical and scientific documents and could offer guidance in this area as well. My experience would best be suited for college bound students as I can also offer guidance on how to plan and approach a college education.
I believe in curtailing the teaching experience specific to the student and understanding how best the student learns, either through visual or auditory stimuli. One of the best attributes a student can learn is critical thinking and to think beyond what is written on the paper. I approach critical thinking by researching numerous resources from which to lea ... read more
