No drudgery!

Student-led and interactive. No lectures. No drudgery. I focus on the process of solving problems. Restate the question. Draw diagrams. Figure out what information is missing. How can I get that information? Can it be calculated or is an estimate good enough? What sources are reliable?
I solve problems. I am a bioanalytical chemist and biomedical engineer. This profession requires using math, statistics, biology and chemistry at a high level on a daily basis as I develop products that improve healthcare. I have taught or tutored science and math from elementary to post-college level for over 25 years in diverse settings.

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated from Mount Union College in May 2006 with a BA in History and a double minor in Adoloescent to Young Adult Education and American Studies. Throughout high school I was a teacher's assistant helping with students in class during my study halls as well as working one on one with students for extra study skills. In the past few years I have tutored students in elemtary math, middle school reading and writing, and even my own students before and after school in social studies. I currently teach Civics and Economics which is an EOC course and I have taught this for 6 years now. Throughout those 6 years I have been able to successfully teach my students how to pass standardized tests and overcome testing anxiety.
I love tutoring students because through my experience I have learned that one on one time can be really beneficial to all students. During this time I am able to re ... read more

'Retired' Biologist and Experienced Math Tutor

I have been teaching molecular biology to students and technicians in the laboratory for the past 12 years. In college I taught the human anatomy laboratory and a special research section to other undergraduates. I also tutored fellow students in College Algebra. I am currently tutoring students in math to prepare them for the GED.
I believe my job as a tutor is to find a way to help every student learn. I tell all my students if they don't understand the material, then I have to find another way to explain it. I believe anyone can learn math and science when the teaching is tailored to the students learning style.I will take the time to find the best learning style for your student and assign useful homework assignments. If your student is willing to work hard there is nothing we can't accomplish together.

I am a passionate teacher and tutor. I believe that there is not a minute to waste when working with youth, and I like to conduct vigorous tutorials and well-paced classes. I believe that everyone has a different learning style, and this is why tutoring is such an integral supplement to classroom teaching. I enjoy getting to know my students and creating lesson plans for tutorials based on their personal learning styles. I believe that a student has to be engaged and challenged in order to learn and I absolutely provide that in my tutorials.
I earned two bachelor degrees from the University of North Carolina in December of 2007. From there, I chose to move to Massachusetts to participate in a ground breaking fellowship at MATCH Charter Public High School. I chose this alternate route to receiving teaching certification because of the classroom experience it provided me. In addition ... read more

I love working with children. I've taught acting at the Durham Arts Council for three years. The duties from that position included directing students in performances which I helped them create. The plays were written around themes chosen by the camp director. So, in essence, the children and I would research those themes and develop stories which I would then turn into plays using my expertise. Those plays would be performed every two weeks for the entire summer. I was responsible for preparing three classes for this project simultaneously.
From my experiences teaching acting in Durham NC I know education can I know that learning can be fun. I hold a Bachelor's from UNC Greensboro where I majored in Psychology and theater arts, but also took many literature credits to fulfill a special educational program in which I was placed. this program was for gifted students.

Though I have no official experience as a tutor, being the oldest of three children there was always an oppurtunity to help with homework. I like to teach using visual examples and being patient to allow the student to work at a pace they are comfortable with. I like to allow children to learn in a way they are comfortable with, each child is unique and I believe they enjoying learning when they are allowed to learn in their own style with guidance from a mentor.
As an Elon University Love School of Business graduate I have extensive training in all aspects of business including Finance, Accounting, and Marketing. In addtion I have excellent written and oral communication skills from outside courses and previous tutoring experience.

As an elementary school teacher and as a college instructor, I have strived to teach and reach my students by engaging the students in the process of learning. As a second grade teacher, the strategies I employed including assessing the strengths, weaknesses and interests of each student, forming small groups in order to maximize opportunities for individualized instruction, and emphasizing participatory instruction that engaged the students in active learning. I believe that many students respond when instructors treat them with respect and set high, clear and consistent expectations. I believe that the key to learning for many students is sparking an interest in the subject matter, and whenever possible relating the material to the student’s own life and experiences. An effective teacher must employ a variety of strategies in order to meet the specific needs of each student.

At The Johns Hopkins University I was a Teaching Assistant in the Departments of Sociology, Geography and Environmental Engineering, and History of Science and Technology. Additionally, I have tutored students for over fifteen years ranging from elementary through undergraduate in all the social sciences and humanities, with a strong focus in writing and communication. Not only do I help my students with academic skills, I help them get and stay organized, discover their goals, and find what works for them in terms of self-discipline and motivation.
As a teacher and tutor it is important to me to make connections with my students. I recognize that each student has different needs and learning styles. With patience, humor, and insight I seek to find "what works" for each of them. It is my goal to help my students improve every aspect of their lives, in great part because of increase ... read more

I am always driven to do my very best. This has been indicated as I earned mostly A's in all subjects. I have worked in the business world in marketing and I know the value of education. I have a Masters Degree in Teaching. I am currently an EC teacher. I am shocked at the number of students who do not have the basic skills in reading, writing, math, science and social studies but yet the school system continues to pass them to the next grade without these skills. During the past five years, I have worked as an EC resource teacher in both elementary and middle schools. I am licensed to teach K-12 EC.
I love working with children. I believe that all children can learn, but each child learns in a different way. In order to help a student, you must find out how they learn. You also must find their passion. With this information (passion and learning style), you can help any ... read more

I believe that children deserve to be children first. Before they are "students," before they are labeled as “learning disabled” or “gifted,” children deserve to honor the critical part of their lives that is childhood. To that end, I try to make learning fun! I meet each child at her developmental level to create a developmentally appropriate individualized plan for her. I use a child’s interests to motivate him. I use real world examples and activities to make concepts meaningful to children, so they will independently seek out learning experiences in their everyday lives. My goal as a teacher is not just to impart information. It is to create a spark that allows children to continue to grow, long after my time with them ends.
I have 22 years of experience working with children in preschool to 3rd grade. I am currently the disabilities coordinator for a Head Start program ... read more
