My comments on tutoring Science : K-6

I believe in hands-on cooperative learning activities to fully engage students.
I have taught pre-k for 2 years prior to my experience in elementary education. I have a variety of experiences working with children in various settings including tutoring. For the past two years, I was a first grade teacher in a public school. This year I will be a first and second grade teacher in a private school.

My comments on tutoring Science : I have a Ph.D. in chemistry, specializing in Inorganic/Organometallic/Bioinorganic chemistry

While pursuing my Ph.D. in chemistry, I not only taught required general chemistry labs and lectures at the university I attended, I also tutored both college and high school students in various fields of math and science. I have over 7 years of tutoring experience at all levels of biology, chemistry, physics, and math. In addition to one-on-one tutoring, I tutor groups of 2-5 students. Teaching lectures of 60+ students at both SDSU and UCSD has prepared me to effectively deliver material to groups. By holding office hours, I was able to better interact with students individually, to better aid them in understanding the material. Both of these teaching environments have led me to become an effective tutor.
I typically begin with the homework assigned by the students teacher, as theses are most often the questions that appear on the tests. Reviewing the practice tests, if avai ... read more

Specializing in science, math, and graphic design.

I graduated from the University of Kansas in 2010 and have worked for a large biological company in Kansas City, MO for the past four years. I have a broad background in science and mathematics as well as a wide range of knowledge in computing hardware and software. All things computers are a bit of a hobby of mine and I have taken several classes in programming, design, and other computer software programs such as Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a kenisthetic learner but when "hands on" is really not an option I (especially with mathematics) draw so that I have a visual, physical representation of the task at hand.
I have never had formal experience tutoring. However Throughout my years of schooling I would participate in study groups which I see as everyone tutoring eachother. I also have two siblings, one very close in age and the other is approximately four years younger. Needless to say, I frequently helped my younger sister with her homework. Just to clarify when I say 'help' I do not mean I just gave her the answers, I would make sure that I either explained or demonstrated the correct way to approach a problem in order to make sure that she understood how to apply the knowlege come test time.

I have worked with children of varying ages since 1982. I am most passionate about Language Arts, History and Science. During my senior year in college, I tutored individual students in Science and I worked one-on-one with 4th graders helping them with Math skills. My classroom experiences include 3rd and 6th Grades. My 3rd Grade room in California had 32 students - 60% of whom were at kindergarten level English speaking / reading / writing. Many of their parents were non-English. This challenged me to work with the children in the classroom, because I knew that they would not get the help and support at home in order to achieve.
Each student deserves to know that they can achieve. I believe that the level of success a student reaches is, ultimately, up to the student. I feel that with caring & patient guidance a student will be motivated to do their best. I believe in ... read more

I have earned a BS in chemistry and an MBA, giving me extensive knowledge in Mathematics, Chemistry, and Business. While still in college for my BS, I offered tutoring services for Chemistry and Mathematics. Over the last 7 years working in the chemical manufacturing industry, I have served as a mentor to entry-level chemists and quality technicians.
I enjoy presenting different viewpoints to my students in an attempt to help them develop a deeper understanding of the What, How, and Why of their studies. I am very patient and will work closely with your student to develop a learning plan that best fits their needs. Given appropriate 1-on-1 attention and direction beyond what is generally taught in the classroom, any child can meet their learning goals.

I have been tutoring for many years with different kinds of children. To begin with, I tutored my younger sister starting when she was about seven years old to age twelve or thirteen. In high school, I also volunteered for an after-school program for Hispanic children ages seven-twelve where I helped them with their homework in various subjects. In addition, I spent about four months tutoring a severely autistic child, teaching him different communication skills and helping him to form patterns. I have always been an 'A' student and I excel in math, science, English, foreign languages, and history. I am best with math and science for elementary up to ninth or tenth grade students, yet I can tutor students in history, reading, and English for all ages. I earned my bachelor's degree in communications, so I have learned to master social studies and the English language by writing copi ... read more

I believe that all teachers should be life-long learners. All teachers should be informed on new best practices and be knowledgeable of current educational policies. These are the reasons that I belong to TESOL and the International Reading Association. In addition to belonging to these organizations, I have continued to pursue new knowledge by attending graduate classes at the University of Kansas. After I received my Master’s Degree in Curriculum and Instruction in 1994, I continued my studies and received both my reading specialist and ESL endorsements. Currently, I teach reading to struggling readers as well as to students who are learning English as a second language. In addition, I tutor Native American students through the NASS program. I find these experiences very rewarding.
I enjoy working with all children. During the past twenty years, I had the opportunity to w ... read more
