My comments on tutoring Science : I am a highly certified teacher (with over 20 years experience) and have worked as a tutor for 15 years. I'm able to tutor all elementary and middle grade level subjects. As well, I also tutor Algebra, general science, earth science, life science, biology, and chemistry at the high school level.
My philosophy is to facilitate student learning by using a progressive questioning method where the student explains what he does know and then building from there, each time questioning for comprehension. This enhances not only comprehension but also communication and critical thinking skills.
Serve as a role model by demonstrating skills and processes then act as a facilitator to help students develop and apply these skills and knowledge. I also use several interactive approaches to hone on students' varied learning styles. It is my belief that " failure is not an option". All students, both young and old are capable of being successful.
