A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style has evolved somewhat since then. I mostly give mini-lectures immediately followed by student problem solving work. I then get input from the students on how to solve a problem, and then show them the way I did it. We also debate the different ways of approaching the problem. I do stress, as much as possible, the development of critical thinking skills. I find that a key skill here is that the student should try and develop the patience and fortitude to struggle with understanding complex chemical principles (easier said than done?).
Having struggled through four years of attempting to learn chemistry at the undergraduate level, listening to “inarticulate though erudite” lectures on various topics in chemistry in the dank, damp, hallowed halls of the University of Paisley, I was determined to redress the balance in favor of the student.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is a mixture of direct instruction and discovery based learning whose components depend on the student(s) at hand. I've been known to make generalized lesson plans and improvise as I go, because every class is different, and too strict of a plan is destructive and boring for the students. Students typically need things explained to them in many different ways to garner a solid understanding of any topic, but especially upper level math and physics. Therefore, I pride myself on using any props, explanations, or examples that I can come up with to get the point across. At the same time, I tailor each lesson to the speed of the student(s) and the time constraints of the situation, varying the amount of direct vs. discovery learning accordingly, and making sure that the lines of communication between myself and the student are wide open so I can continually assess their ... read more

More About This Tutor...

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.
