Chemistry Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Columbia, SC

I enjoy teaching and through my lessons I hope to instill in students self-confidence as a learner and be successful. I believe each student can do more and better. However, there are times when they all need a guide to overcome their obstacles. As a veteran professional educator, I bring immense experiences of helping students overcome their hurdles in their academic endeavor with patience and understanding. I believe, I am sufficiently equipped with the needed content knowledge and at the same time familiar with the student struggles in Physics and Chemistry. Each student is different and their needs are different. I thoroughly believe, I will be able to clarify students’ doubts and instill in them a new confidence and make them successful in these subjects. Student-centered and interactive.

I tutored Algebra, Pre-Calculus, Biology and Chemistry while I was pursuing both of my degrees. Not only was I a tutor, but I also sought tutoring for myself! I feel that tutorial sessions can help students get a better understanding of a subject outside of daily classroom lectures. The student gets that one on one time that they may not always receive in a classroom. Each student has a different degree of learning and that's what makes us all unique. I believe that "patience is a virtue" and would make every attempt to be one of the best tutors that you have known. Thank you very much for your time and I look forward to being of service to you soon.

I have a BS in Chemistry. I am a very analytical person, science and math come very easily. I scored a 1400 on the SAT (750 Math) so I am eager to help those who want to improve on their score. I am in my last semester of obtaining a Master of Health Administration degree so I have the ability help anyone with the business/administrative side of the specialized industry. I have played guitar since the 7th grade and have performed for many charity concerts during the beginning of my undergraduate career. I would be best suited if a teenager wanted to learn guitar/vocals, especially if interested in rock (any subgenre).

I do not consider myself a teacher but a helper. In my experience, the Socratic method in which I pose probing questions that unlock the student's knowledge is the strongest approach. A student's retention of the material is strongest when the student can teach it, and that's what I aim for. I break down any material the student doesn't understand into terms that are easier to comprehend. Preparedness is expected on the part of the student. I am not a substitute for independent study, and the sessions should not consist of doing homework. I am a resource best used when students have an understanding of what they do need help with. I have four years of experience as a tutor that I obtained throughout my college experience. Tutoring is a personal joy of mine as I witness students who I've worked with succeed in their academics. It has been the most fulfilling job I've had, and I loo

I've instructed students in high school chemistry and physical science for six years. I began teaching as a Teach for America corps member. I am accomplished in developing and implementing activities to stimulate and enhance student involvement and encourage critical thinking. ? Monitoring and assessing student performance. I believe that different students learn in different ways. In a classroom setting I varied instruction in order to reach all types of learners. In a one-on-one setting I can focus on how that specific student learns the best.

Having graduated from the University of South Carolina with a BS in Biology and a minor in Chemistry I have always been passionate about the sciences and getting others excited about them as well. I was awarded a number of grants to perform research projects while in college and from that became familiar with collecting information and having to be extremely detail-oriented. I have developed skills in being an analytical thinker due to taking courses involving identifying microorganisms and disease research. I am a very organized as well as time oriented person. In the past I have tutored students in chemistry and biology and English. Teaching children is the greatest fulfillment of all. Children are the future and they require great educators and mentors.

As a first generation college student, I understand the difficulties that many students have to face throughout their education. I am patient, caring, and passionate about ensuring each student accomplishes his or her goals. I have worked with many different students, and understand that each student learns differently. I am devoted to tailoring the tutoring sessions to each student so that they may learn effectively and obtain the most from each session. I believe that encouragement and support is necessary to build enthusiasm and foster confidence in each student throughout every step of the learning process. I have earned a bachelor degree in Biology from Harvey Mudd College and master degree in Biomedical Engineering from Duke University. As a result of this, I have gained a high level of proficiency in the subjects of math and science. Additionally, I have extensive writing experien

I believe in teaching through doing. When I taught German I conducted my class almost completely in German (the beginner level), and while this would seem difficult for the students to learn my students scored excellently on their tests. With enough support that they are capable of doing it and flexibility on the side of the teacher, a student can achieve whatever their goals may be, without having the bored of memorization. Having obtained a Masters Degree in Comparative Literature I have learned to best mold my teaching methodologies into the educational needs of my students. I have taught freshman German at the college level as well as have extensive experience tutoring while I worked at the University of South Carolina. Finally do to my various educational background (I have studied everything from literature to biochemistry) I am qualified to tutor in a wide variety of subjects

Over the past few months I have been involved with substitute teaching in Richland School District 2. Since being involved I have gotten very much involved in every aspect of teaching. I have been requested at serveral of the district schools because of the way I respond to being in the classroom and working with children of age grades and ages. I am very excited about being in the schools on a daily basis and plan to take things a step further and pursue a full time teaching position in the upcoming school through an accrediated university program. I feel as though I am highly qualified and competitive for a teaching position because of my abilities to relate to children of all ages. As a volunteer basketball referee at Northside Baptist Church, Upward basketball program since 1998, I work with children between the ages of 7 and 13. I teach them about basketball and sportsmanship.

I have been pursing my degree in Early Childhood Education at the University of South Carolina. I chosen to take a hiatus from the University so that I can gain more experience working with young children in an educational setting. During my time at the University I gained valuable knowledge and experience with developing lesson plans, assisting teachers and interacting with young children. I want to use my academic experience and love for children and their parents. I am also looking for an environment to increase my knowledge and grow professionally. I also will be receiving my Associates Degree in Arts, May of 2010. I love working and being with children. I believe that all children learn new things in their own way. I am very patient and out-going. My main goal is to motivate and provide the best teaching possible.

I enjoy sharing my knowledge with others and showing them something new. I feel a sense of reward when a student of mine realizes that they have a new concept. When the lightbulb comes on it is the best feeling in the world. I believe that given the right tools and the right environment all students can learn anything that they put their minds to. I am not a dictator in my teaching style, more of a teammate. I work alongside students guiding them to the next step. I am a fan of I do, we do, you do. I show them how to do it, we do it together, and finally they show me that they can do it. I have always had a passion for education and learning. I have always excelled in mathematics from elementary to collegiate levels. I LOVE math. I love to do math and I love to teach math. I was even on a math competition team in middle school. I have a strong statistical background from my P
