Life Science Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Castroville, TX

I hold a Masters in Mathematics and a Bachelors in Molecular Biology. My teaching certification is EC-6 and just added ESL certified. I believe all children learn at there own style and pace and that we as teachers need to find what works for the child and help them build on their strengths in a positive way. I am a certified teacher and have been teaching for 8 years in elementary school. I began my teaching career by accident leaving the law enforcement field to work initially part-time as a teacher. However I really enjoyed working with children and found that I was good at it. Over the years it has been nice to hear both parents, teachers, and children comment that I have made a difference in their lives and that I have helped make them the young people that they are shaping to be. Many children and parents have said that while I was tough I have helped them stay in school and bec

I have worked in a wide variety of socioeconomic school settings, which makes me quite versatile when it comes to my approach to teaching. I start from the ground-up, first forming a cognitive scaffold for a subject by teaching the very basics. From there we branch off into more and more complex tasks. I have experience with graphic design and animation programs and love to use technology aids whenever possible. When all else fails I draw upon knowledge the student already possesses and attempt to form analogous models that are easier to understand. I have had experience in the classroom teaching the three major sciences (physics, chemistry, and biology) at the high school level and also did an apprenticeship as part of a graduate program for UT Health Science Center at San Antonio. My combined experience allows me to construct learning models based on analysis of individual students

I like to teach students visually with videos and models so that they can retain the information through visual memory. I have tutored in biology at St. Mary's University.I have 2 years overall of tutoring experience. I want to be a tutor to help students better understand the material they are having difficulties with. In turn by helping them I am also helping myself retain the information. I have studied Biology, Microbiology, Histology, Physics, Math,and other various biology subjects. I presently study cancer research at the University of Texas Health Science Center.

PhD molecular biology, major medical biological research It is my task to make learning easier for you. Relying on my knowledge and experience I will guide you through the subject, point out the key concepts, models and ideas and show how a specific piece of information relates to something you already know. This approach ensures that new information is no scary and huge pile technical details but a sum of ideas that make sense and are easy to understand. I have a total of 10 years active research experience in medical biological and basic biological research. I earned my PhD at the Institute for Pathology in Basel for medical biological research. Then I had postdoctoral appointments at Tulane University and Baylor College of Medicine. Also I taught introductory courses to biology students at the University of Basel, for which I received excellent student feed back.

Working one-on-one is my forte, where I can quickly feel out my students as to where the problems might be and how best to address them. Twenty years experience teaching middle and high school, physical science, chemistry and biology. I also taught home/hospital kids all their subjects from English to history to creative writing. I also speak Spanish, having studied it in high school and college, and then living in Central America and Puerto Rico for almost ten years.

I am a hands on teacher. Most of the students I have taught, have not reached the analysis state of learning. This has always been my goal, to teach the student to think for his or her self. I do not give extensive lectures, I find that it just befuddles the student. I give facts to learn, and the we apply those facts to a hands on setting for application. I believe this backs up the theoretical book learning, and gives the student confidence in the work he or she does. When they find they've done it, they are amazed--the spark of achievement in their eyes is the most gratifying thing of my career. I have taught students of all learning levels Science grades 6-12, for 14+ years in the Texas Public Schools. I have taught ESL students, as well, for I am bilingual:reading, writing and speaking. I have more experience with the middle school student, than the high school student, but am

My emphasis is class discussion. I engage students to participate in class and in small group projects. I offer one on one tutoring outside of class I orchestrate mentoring to enable those who have a command of the material to offer support to those who may need additonal guidance outside of class. My role is to share my knowledge and always be willing to learn new teaching strategies. I work well with peers to improve teaching techniques and share ideas. As a professor at DeVry University I offered tutoring to my students on weekends for those who did not have a background in life sciences.As a part time professor at Everest College Medical Assisting Program I taught back office skills, physiology, medical ethics and medical termiology. The class memebers often required additional instruction outside of class which I was glad to offer during my office hours. As a part time professor

Helping children with math applications are considered very important in our environment here in the United States of America. Many people do not have the same passion for helping students understand the reasoning for mathematics. I have learned how to assist in the math process (in any environment - Middle School, Jr. High or High School Students.) The one thing I learned from the Certification process and 7 years of being in the classroom, you do have to have the enjoyment of working with all kinds of children with their gifts and talents. Utilizing the talents of the children makes math alot more fun and enjoyable for for both the class and the individuals.

In my experience as a tutor, I have acquired the highly important skill of adaptability. Certainly, particular techniques and strategies such as asking provocative questions are helpful with any student of any age. More importantly, though, I have learned that the best tutors are those who can shape each session to the tutee's individual needs and personality. This is most easily accomplished in developing a flexible approach constituted by a blend of directive and non-directive tactics. With this approach, my goal is always to aid the tutee in feeling comfortable and confident in developing new ways of thinking about his or her work, and, from there, helping him or her along the journey to success. In 2008, as an upper-level English major, I accepted a position with Schreiner University wherein I hoped to use my education in the concentration of composition. For the rest of my college
