I utilize the experience I have in working with a wide variety of people to develop a relaxed, positive teaching style. I utilize a keep it simple method of teaching that is direct. It is designed to allow the student to build from memorization up to problem solving based on the principles, objectives and goals of the subject matter. I focus on developing the student's ability to utilize available resources, make decisions, and to act. This approach takes patience and organization to prepare, present and evaluate both the material and the student's progress. I have practiced this approach for over 30 years. I enjoy teaching because it keeps me on my toes and the rewards are clearly visible. I have been teaching in a variety of settings since 1979. In addition to teaching I held positions training, developing and mentoring of instructors. I also developed and coordinated training prog

Between the years of 1978 and 1984 I was a monitor and then a supervisor in a small Christian school using the ACE curriculum. They have various programmed learning booklets teaching all of the major subjects. You are actually more of a tutor than a teacher if you work with these booklets. I have experience in the four major areas of learning which are English, Math, Social Studies, and Science. I was with students from first through twelfth grade. While I was college I had occasion to take two years of college level English and also statistics up through 600 level. The English helped when I was writing my Master’s Thesis, it was 120 pages long. My committee found it to be well written. The statistics was the basis for the thesis. I love to help a student work their way through any difficulty they are having in any of the major subjects. It is always a challenge to direct the students

Before I begin to teach I like to attempt to understand how much the student comprehends about the particular subject. I prefer to teach globally and with examples. I would rather the student understand what is going on rather than memorizing a step by step approach. I also have found it beneficial to implement a reward system. I would like to let it be known that I would be in my senior year in college and do not yet possess a bachelor's degree. I have two younger brothers in middle school who I have been helping with math and science homework for the past few years.

I love teaching young people (including my own children who are 5, 11 and 13 years of age!). I am patient and supportive, and like to make the learning process fun. I believe young people can reach their full potential with the right guidance. I personally hope to make a big difference to the lives of my students. My education was in the UK at Oxford University where I received a BA in chemistry, followed by a PhD in biochemistry. I then taught at Exeter University as university demonstrator, and was a tutor in organic chemistry for mature students at the Open University. I moved to South Africa, where I was a lecturer in organic chemistry at the University of Cape Town. I finally moved to the USA and worked at Bristol-Myers Squibb, in Syracuse, as a scientist. Most recently I worked at SUNY-ESF as a post-doctoral assistant. I bring to teaching a broad background in science, and

I was fortunate to be able to enter college full-time at the age of fourteen. This gave a great opportunity to pursue a wide variety of interests and still graduate slightly ahead of my peers. As a result I had almost completed the requirements for majors in several subjects, including chemistry, German, music and the subject I received my degree in, biology. In addition to taking courses in these subjects, I was able to work as a German tutor for over a year and as a teaching assistant for two sections of first semester organic chemistry. I have always enjoyed teaching people in a one-on-one or small group environment. It allows me to tailor my teaching style to fit the individual student or group I’m working with. I enjoy using creative methods to teach a topic, including creating multiple ways to explain a term or concept and providing analogies to concepts that are familiar to t

My goals for my students encompass more than simply answering questions and completing homework assignments. Although these activities are integral to teaching, what I really want to impart is the ability to solve problems, leaving my students with a valuable tool for excelling in their educational careers. Another one of my goals is to make the sciences fun and exciting. I think the most successful students are those who possess an active interest in what they are studying. If they truly find science interesting, then they will seek answers to their own questions, and learn at a rapid pace. My educational experiences center heavily on the sciences. I have a B.A. in chemistry and biology, as well as an M.S. in organic chemistry. These degrees have given me a strong foundation in basic chemical and biological knowledge, as well as more advanced knowledge in both of these fields. More impo

Chemistry is fun! With years of experience in teaching and tutoring Chemistry, I am willing to help any students from elementary to college levels with questions or difficulties in learning general/inorganic chemistry and organic chemistry. From general homework problems to exam preps, you know you've come to the right place! As an chemistry graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in this fascinating science. I have earned bachelor and master's degrees both in chemistry ,which has enabled me to gain a deep understanding in many areas of chemistry and its related sciences. During the last few years,I have tutored students in general,inorganic,organic chemistry and helped them achieve better academic understanding and performance.

I enjoy helping others learn about science and the world around them. I am considerate and respectful of my students. Whenever possible, I incorporate my own experiences into my explanations, which leads to a more personal, hands-on approach to knowledge. I believe that all students are capable of excellence, and I am available to help them attain that goal. I have always been committed to excellence in my education; I was a student in the University Honors program for my Bachelor's degree. I have recently earned my Master's of Science degree in Ennvironmental Chemistry, and I completed two minors in addition to my BS in Chemistry: Mathematics and Environmental Studies. I possess good grammar and speaking skills, which have been learned through writing laboratory reports and research papers as well as through giving technical presentations.

I have worked the past two semesters as a Teaching Assistant in the Department of Nutritional Sciences at Cornell University. In the fall, I taught a weekly section of 14 students in Introductory Nutrition and this past semester, I instructed a lab group of 10 students in Human Anatomy and Physiology. Additionally, I have done both volunteer and private tutoring for standardized tests and individual subjects consistently for about 7 years. I have tutored for SATs, MCATs, as well as a variety of subject tests, ranging from mathematics to Spanish. I believe that my considerable teaching experience and very strong background make me an excellent candidate for the microbiology and physics tutoring positions, two subjects in which I am well versed. My extensive experience in different subjects and venues has engendered in me an adaptive teaching style. I am very comfortable teaching in b

I enjoy teaching/tutoring high school students and adults in need of support to prepare for college. I am an excellent educator and am able to adopt my teaching style based on the need of the student. If a student needs a hands on or a visual approach then I am able to adjust. I have been a teacher for the past 20 years and have learned the best quality is compassion. As part of that compassion, a teacher must listen to each student to determine need and develop an approach of instruction according to the need. Typically I like to give a multiple intelligence survey that helps me figure out how each student thinks. This will help me to use the best teaching techniques to allow the student the greatest chance of success. I have strong High School Math knowledge and have taught Math/Science for the past seven years. As a resource room instructor I had to be well versed in all sciences and

I have earned my bachelors degree in Biotechnology. I will be finishing my masters in education May 16, 2010. I am pending a teaching certification in Chemistry and Biology which should be granted September 1, 2010. I have worked with all different age groups. Recently I worked in an environmental laboratory where I performed what is taught in the biology and chemistry classroom on a daily basis. I have had a great deal of experience working with youth in many different situations and despite my enjoyment for laboratory work I found myself excited to enter into the teaching profession. My previous experiences provide a unique benefit in the classroom. I do not only have the science knowledge but I bring real world practicality of the material being taught. Students will relate with the realism of how science affects their daily life. During my student teaching placements I h
