Genetics Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Claremont, VA

I have over 10 years of experience in the education field with a special love for tutoring Mathematics. My experience is extensive as I ran my own tutoring business for 3 years doing mostly freelance work in college. The unique thing about my experience is that I have tutored ages 8-28 through my many recipients. I have a knack for getting children and adults excited to learn whether it is through motivation outside the subject area, or showing them that they can in fact do this. My teaching style is upbeat and positive. If I cannot be excited for my subject areas. Why should any student I tutor?

I have tutoring experience in the field of virology and viral/cell genetics (at the graduate level). My teaching philosophy was to have the student come in very prepared with questions/comments about the areas that were troubling them. I then went through area of study by area of study, and explained in the simplest terms the background, reasoning, and philosophy behind the science. I am a recent graduate of Virginia Commonwealth University with a PhD in Microbiology and Immunology. I have dedicated my life to the study of microorganisms and have been a contributor to the field since 2003. I graduated from Virginia Tech in 2005, where I obtained a wealth of experience and knowledge of biology, with an emphasis on biochemistry, genetics, and molecular biology. I carried on my studies at VCU in the Fall of 2005, where I mastered the knowledge and skills needed to succeed in the field

Once we work on that area and master the concepts, I will then go back an work with each student to figure out a study strategy that will work for them long term. The goal is for them to be able to be successful on their own in their studies so they no longer need me!

Education in genetics at both the undergrad and medical school level. I find genetics to be very fascinating. Have deep understanding of the way in which genetics ties in with all other biological science. Genetics is the cornerstone foundation to understanding how all things relating to biology function. Having fun is a requirement. Learning in an environment where stress is taken out of the equation is paramount to retention of knowledge and key to success. I utilize anecdotal methods to convey concepts so that a student can relate the knowledge to how it fits into their own life or past experience.I try to get around rote learning when possible. However, when pure memorization is unavoidable, I have methods to incorporate that are tried and true and still hinge on the foundation of using anecdot. See one, do one, teach one is also another way I like to use. The student sees/learns, t

I have recently graduated from Virginia Tech where I majored in Biological Sciences. This included biology, physics, and chemistry as focus points. My tutoring experience has been volunteer work. Throughout my academic career I have always helped others, from explaining difficult concepts to peer reviewing papers in college. I have also been a substitute teacher at my local high school since 2007. I recently worked under a doctoral candidate on a research project about warblers. One duty was to train volunteers in all aspects of capturing and processing the birds. As you can see my tutoring experience comes from real life experiences which is shown in my tutoring style. I truly believe in learning by doing. Being shown the answer never helps anyone. You must go through the process of doing to be confident in your abilities.

I am a creative teacher, meaning that I assess the individual and do not have an agenda that I adhere to. Normally, I am able to advance a child a grade level in reading with three months of tutoring and reinforcing homework, during the summer. However, I will go the extra mile to help a student be able to totally understand what I am trying to help them learn. I have numerous children's educational CD-ROMs for the children who learn better with that visual help. I love to watch children learn and love to be the one who makes them able to succeed. I have a number of visual and written tools and will find out what works with the student and find a way to make that available. I have been a volunteer for various literacy programs for the past several years, focusing primarily on phonics rather than sight reading. I have worked in two group homes for dually diagnosed adults, meaning both

I have a Bachelors of Science in Chemistry from the College of William and Mary and will be returning to finish my Masters Degree at Georgetown University in January of 2011. I graduated with a 3.2 GPA from William and Mary and currently have a 3.7 GPA at Georgetown. During my time at William and Mary I worked as a tutor for Calculus, Biology and Chemistry. I enjoyed working with my fellow students to help them achieve. I have extensive experience tutoring and love helping others. The most important skill I can teach someone is how. I believe in not only helping students to understand the material but instilling in them a joy of learning. I want students to understand how to get to the answers, why the answers are correct and how to do it themselves. This skill boosts self esteem and confidence. I also believe that it is very important to teach study skills and techniques that can

I have a great deal of passion for teaching. When educating a person of any age, I make it my goal to create an experience that is as intellectually fulfilling for them as it is for me. I encourage questions at all times and push students to not only think about what they are learning but why they are learning it. Whenever we learn we should not only learn new information but we should improve upon the way we learn and the way we look at the world. I always consider it a privilege to work with someone in order to help them obtain such an achievement. In the course of my education and professional career I have always found myself attracted to positions where I am passing on knowledge and skills to others. During my education at JMU I learned various skills in the area of scientific research, mathematical analysis, and the extensive writing skills that allow one to express their accomplis
