Chemistry Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Bybee, TN

I never made below a "B+" average in this subject, and understand the dynamics, processes, and procedures behind this subject, including the periodic table of elements, as well as balancing chemical equations. I have mentored various people since 2000, in all types of subjects, including math, science, social sciences, English, writing, literature, and other related subjects. My academic record is very strong, and I believe empowering those I work with every single time. The only pre-requisites are that you have to be willing to learn, and learn how to learn. I like to use the Socratic method, mainly by asking questions and challenging assumptions. In addition, I like to engage those I teach, challenging them to think about what they previously have not considered. I believe in building on successes, and offering constructive criticism, where appropriate.

I believe in being hands on and visual, many students have problems in math and science because they are unable to visualize the words written in their books. I am extremly organized so that my time is best spent on the most difficult areas for each individual student. I have a BS in Biology and Genetics from North Carolina State University. I have recently taken a refresher course in Anatomy and Physiology to go back to school for radiology. I have taken college level math courses through Calculus II, I have taken General Biology, Microbiology, Biochemistry, Organic Chemistry, and multiple courses in Genetics.

The vast majority of my experience has been obtained throughout my time in college and my willingness to help fellow students and/or friends in a variety of studies. My studies throughout college primarily consist of the sciences, including chemistry, biology, and physics. My willingness to help others is where my want to tutor stems from. Teaching style varies depending on the student, but I always strive to pique their interest in certain areas by relating it to their everyday experiences. I believe interactive learning is most efficient and enjoyable, including examples and activities.

I love teaching and tutoring children of all ages. Although I have only formally been tutoring for about 6 years, I was a tutor all through my childhood helping other children learn when I finished with my classwork. Since first grade I have always wanted to be a teacher, although my brain tried to steer me in a different direction in college. Yet, my heart brought me back to teaching. I am very considerate of every child no matter their weakness; however I play close attention to their strenghts and play off those strenghts in the classroom. I believe every child has a desire to learn deep within them, some just have to remember how good it feels to learn, especially when he or she has tried so hard. During my four years at East TN State University (ETSU), I tutored college students in General and Organic Chemistry, and multiple Psychology courses. I also taught for Kaplan Test Prep in

My goal in attending the University of Tennessee was initially for the purpose of doing research; this led me to pursue a BS in BCMB.I began volunteering with middle school,high school,and college students at my church in 2005,which revealed to me my love of working with students this age.Over the past five years, I have tutored students in math and science,from fifth grade math to college-level chemistry. I worked as a substitute teacher in spring of 2008 and was hired to teach high school chemistry and eventually algebra at a private school from fall of 2008 to spring of 2010.In fall of 2009,I began taking graduate courses to gain teaching certification,and I completed this process in December of 2010,through LMU. Each day is a new day, full of new possibilities.The classroom is a place for students share their gifts and tweak those skills they have already begun to develop.The classro

I believe that in order to teach you must be able to understand learning styles of each individual child and approach them on a case by case basis. With encouragement, commitment and proper technique I can make a significant contribution to a child's education. I feel that it is very important to help a child understand that learning is a privilege and will benefit them throughout their lives. I am confident that I can help my students discover their full potential and experience a true sense of fulfillment in doing so. As a graduate in Biological Engineering from NCSU, I have extensive experience in very complex areas of math and science, which also relied on a thorough understanding of the most basic concepts of these subjects. As an Engineer I have demonstrated the ability to solve complex problems, communicate effectively and follow a strict set of ethical guidelines. As a young fath

Since a child, I have always been curious of the world around me. My interests culminated with the completion of two degrees in the natural sciences. I consider myself a true inter-disciplinarian, supplementing both my degrees with courses in applied sciences, economics and the arts, to improve my understanding of the connections between science and the world. I also believe this is the reason I have purposed myself as a mentor or instructor for much of my life. I find a true fascination with everyday phenomenon, and enjoying sharing that meaning with others. I have been able to do this through instruction as a public school science teacher, a private school science and math teacher, and many years of teaching at an equestrian academy. I find that there is something fascinating that we encounter on a daily basis. I enjoy bringing those events to light, and fostering student interest in t

I believe that my best teaching attributes are creativity and flexibility. I believe that all of us have different ways of learning, consequently, finding how an individual best understands is important to effective teaching. This teaching philosophy requires creativity and flexibility. If one learning avenue closes, with the student, I attempt to create a new approach to meet his or her learning capacity. Rigid teaching modes tend to stunt possibilities for discovery on many levels. In contrast, cultivation of a student's own insights into the subject matter bring on a sense of accomplishment, strengthening self-esteem and hopefully fostering a sense of fun and anticipation. I have an educational background in biology, but also have developed strong English and writing skills during college, and since, through journal-keeping and creative writing.

My teaching style is informal and friendly. I have numerous years as an AWANA teacher of children at church in addition to one year experience as a professional chemistry teacher. A prior supervisor of my teaching style said "a natural teacher that immediately puts the students at ease". My experience starts as a chemist in the nuclear industry, then proceeding to an environmental professional in the manufacturing industry, and finally as an adjunct professor of law for a distance education university. I have worked primarily in the utility industry, with short periods of employment in the aluminum industry and semiconductor industry.

I would describe my teaching style as being essentially constructivist. I strive to show students how the subject matter is relevant to them and help them see the benefit derived from mastering a subject area. I try to analyze the student's learning style and their current weaknesses in order to tailor the instruction to meet their needs. I believe I am patient and respectful. I enjoy teaching in an atmosphere of mutual respect and effort. I worked for 16 years as a high school science and math instructor at a small school which necessitated that I teach all the courses in the 9-12 curriculum in rotation. These courses included all levels of mathematics, biology, chemistry and physics. I qualified to teach AP courses and wrote a number of integrated curriculum for my school district. I also tutor in the school's tutoring center because many of the students need the additional assi

I have worked with a large spectrum of skill levels & motivations, & have developed skills to meet all levels. I have extensive experience working with learning disabled children, & many of my strategies are geared to diverse learners. I have mainly tutored upper level/motivated students, but I try to fuse my methods together. I discuss problem solving techniques, word problem approaches, patterns, non-calculator skills, & vocab in order to promote self-confidence and understanding of their weaknesses/strengths. I encourage them to ask questions, interrupt for clarification, & to feel comfortable with me. I am known amongst peers as having excellent rapport with students of all social groups, and being respected by them, not just liked. I graduated Brandeis with degrees in Psych. & Engl./Amer. Lit, with a Sec. Ed. minor; I also was a TA for a humanities course as a senior. Though I
