I am a hands on teacher. I like to get to the very rudimentary components of whatever we are learning and build on that foundation. There are no shortcuts but I do believe through repetition of the building blocks it allows to understand more complex concepts in each subject. Tutored General Chemistry 1, General Chemistry 2, Organic Chemistry 1, Organic Chemistry 2 and Calculus 1. Every student I have consistently tutored over the years, there has been improvement in scores. As long as I have the material that is needed for tutoring prior to the tutor session, the session should be very effective in improving grades and most importantly understanding.

I have done assistant teaching for my professors at Concord University. I helped set up laboratory equipment, answered college freshmans' questions and provided reasons for why certain biological processes occurred in Biology 102. I only did it for two hours per week, but I learned how to cooperate with college students and provide my insight of biology. I had no exact teaching method. However, I was able to answer simple questions and allowed the students to work on their problems by discovering some of the ideas themselves.

I have prepared sample questions and conducted tests to make students understand simple concepts and boost their confidence to face the real examination. Such type of exams will make the students understand the mistakes they usually commit and give them a perfect opportunity to rectify them. I have tutored 4 students in Fall 2009 semester in Chemistry, Physics and Calculas and helped them to get either A or B grades. I have tutored students of age groups 16-18 in high school Physics, Mathematics, Chemistry and Biology for 2 years in India. I have gave my GRE and got 1230 out of 1600. I am patient, while teaching and good at explaining same things in different ways if possible. Being a graduate student in Engineering i am good at Mathematics concepts and intricacies of science. I have published a paper in International Journal for Pattern Recognition by IEEE.

During my undergrad I was taught how to tutor students at the Tutoring Lab where I worked. Teaching students how to think critically is the key to success in any subject area. I found that asking students questions in a systematic way helps build a habit that allows them to approach any situation and come out successfully. I firmly believe in the saying "Give a man a fish; you have fed him for today. Teach a man to fish; and you have fed him for a lifetime”. The goal in education is to teach students how to think for themselves. My source of income all throughout college has been through tutoring either at the college level or at the elementary and high school level. I am currently working on my Master's in Adolescence Education degree which I should complete in December 2008. I am student teaching as well as tutoring at a local community center in Buffalo.

In college, I tutored kids K-5 on primarily their reading skills. However, I also asked them if they needed any help with any other subject and what material was covered. From this I would put together study outlines from their notes and textbook. This allowed me to know ahead of time what should be emphasized. Also, when teaching a biology field to a more mature individual, I find that reading up on the material actually emphasizes my passion for the field. There also have been times I have made up mnemonics for certain biology topics, whether it is a rhyme, story, or parody of a song. I find that it makes learning the material easier and more enjoyable. My friends always have enjoyed them as the mnemonics always can create a laugh. I have a very strong passion for learning and teaching various topics within Biology, such as studying genetics, microbiology, immunology, biochemist

Tutoring provides a great opportunity for one on one learning while using different teaching strategies. During that time, I can find out student strengths and weaknesses and tailor lessons based on this. I feel that a one on one environment allows a student to feel more comfortable in asking questions and expressing what he or she is having difficulties with. This can be challenging, sometimes, in the classroom setting. I have a very diverse educational and work-place resume. This includes both undergraduate and graduate courses in the chemical and biological sciences, as well as education courses. My work experience also includes teaching at the high school level and extensive laboratory work in both the chemical and life sciences. This has allowed me to apply my laboratory experience to the classroom and tutoring students. I have tutored high school students in Regents and AP che

As a high school student, I spent time tutoring other students in science and math. I went on to study biology at Cornell University, where I earned my B.S. Upon graduation I decided to attend medical school, but I recently realized my true desire is to teach. I currently possess all the required knowledge to teach biology, and I will soon be pursuing my Master's and certification in education. I enjoy drawing parallels between the coursework I am teaching and real life. My own high school biology teacher used this approach, and with it he was able to maintain the students' interest and motivation. I believe that students are more eager to learn when they realize that their coursework has real-world applicability.
