College Genetics Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Columbus, OH

I have tutored middle and high school in Science and Math and have helped friends with MCAT and GRE preparation. I have been a Teaching Assistant in the graduate school and have spent a considerable amount of time helping undergraduate and fellow graduate students with biology concepts both theory and laboratory work. I have a passion for learning and sharing knowledge. I hold two masters' degrees in Biomedical Science and Neuroscience and am working towards a Doctoral Degree now. I have published Scientific Papers in reputed Scientific Journals. I have the ability to simplify the most difficult concept and use illustration to teach. I do not believe that students should memorize each and every word of the subject matter. Education is like a building and knowledge earned at every step of the way should be a brick in the wall. I have trained in yoga and meditation to help release and mana

To be honest I do not have any professional experience tutoring. However, throughout my entire educational career I have always been able to grasp material before my classmates and hence help them grasp the material themselves. I am very patient and am able to break down any subject into very simple and easy to understand steps to ensure the students' success. ACT 32 AP Scholar Whatever works best for the student. I understand that everyone learns best in their own way so I am very flexible to what works best for each students' needs.

I am currently a Postdoctoral Researcher at The Ohio State Medical Center. I have earned a bachelor degree, BS in Biology, a masters degree, MS in biochemistry and a Ph.D. in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. During my graduate studies, I tutored undergraduate students in Biochemistry for 3 semesters. I have published 5 papers so far and currently working on few more before I commit to my teaching career. I have a passion for teaching and helping students succeed. Being an A student, graduating with a 4.0 GPA, I believe if I can do it, every student can do it if given the proper resources. I am patient, easy going and professional. I helped my Biochemistry students improve their grades from F to B. As I'm presently strengthening my research knowledge in Cellular Biochemistry, I'm building my teaching experience in educating students and helping them meet their goals.

I believe that a student can learn any subject or topic that they put enough effort into. For some, it is difficult to put in effort into some topics because they think "Oh I'll never get this in a million years!" My focus on tutoring kids is to improve their self-esteem by breaking down examples into smaller pieces and walking through them in a step-by-step manner. It is often that all a student needs to understand concepts are just different examples than what they are presented in class, or the subject matter explained in different terms. Because of my research experience I am also able to provide students with examples on how the topics relate to real life experiences. I recently graduated from the Ohio State University with a BS in Microbiology. During my time at OSU I tutored both my peers and underclassman in classes ranging from biology, microbiology, chemistry, and various

I am driven as a tutor because I love to learn. I love to experience the interconnectedness of subjects and to share these revelations with the students that I am working with. I have a passion for learning that spreads over several academic areas. I not only graduated cum laude with molecular genetics as my major but also took on a minor in entrepreneurship because I realize the opportunities for growth in the field of biotechnology. I have aided disabled students with microbiology and chemistry in the lab setting. It was greatly fulfilling. In addition to my work with disabled students, I have taught English to non-native speakers from countries as disparate as Saudi Arabia, South Korea, and Brazil. When tutoring, I feel it is best to sit back and review the student's work and watch him/her in action. Once I have established where he/she needs work, I show the student a differen

In my teaching experience, I preferred small or one-on-one settings, which enabled me to get to know the student so I knew how to address their specific needs, but also allowed the student to become more comfortable with asking questions. In situations where I had to teach one-on-one, I made sure to start off by finding out what the student already understood about the subject at hand, so I could build off of previous knowledge and understanding. This way, the student never feels like they don’t know anything, which builds their confidence and allows them to perform better in their studies. I am interested in tutoring because I have a passion to see others reach their educational goals, be it at the elementary, high school, or college level, and I have the hands-on experience necessary to help students that struggle in their coursework.

Graduating from a liberal arts univeristy with a Bachelor's degree in Biology along with a minor in Chemistry has provided for me an incredibly well rounded educational experience. I have a solid understanding of the the natural sciences along with comprehensive lab experience in anatomy, physiology, organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry, along with other disciplines. As a Junior and Senior I found it very rewarding to help the younger students grasp biochemical concepts. Since I find Biochemical processes so exciting, it is easy for me to get other students excited about them as well. Many students feel that the sciences are boring and dull. However, when I explain the processes to the students in their own terms instead of the textbooks they begin to realize that it can be fun! The first step to getting a student to understand the natural sciences is to spark some interest. This can b

Being an educator is a job that requires a sense of passion, for it is a job that simply cannot be performed successfully if one does not feel or care for that excitement that comes with making an impact in someone’s life. An educator has the ability to help shape students’ mind and change their ways of thinking, both for better and for worse. While educators have the responsibility to provide students with accurate knowledge on the subject matter being taught, an educator also has a responsibility to inspire. I believe that as an educator, it is not only my responsibility to present the information accurately to the students, but also to show the students the importance of this knowledge because a student that is inspired by a subject matter will have the desire to learn about it. As an educator, I cannot make a student appreciate or dislike a particular subject of study; I can, how

I graduated from Ohio State in June 2011 with a BS in molecular genetics. I graduated with honors and with a GPA of 3.657. I have taken the MCAT with a score of 33 (10-BS, 12-PS, 11-V). I have never worked professionally as a tutor but I have tutored friends extensively throughout my college experience. I have an extensive background in biology, physics, chemistry, and the humanities. I am very well rounded in all subjects and would have no problem teaching any part of the MCAT, or any other educational material. I really enjoy working with students, especially at the college level, who have not experienced a great deal of success in a particular subject and aspire to do better. I believe that the key to any kind of scientific or mathematical learning is repetition. It is first important to get to the heart of the concept, and see what is holding someone back from understanding so

After returning to Ohio Dominican University to complete my certification to teach science, I was a long term substitute teacher and tutor in several central Ohio school districts. In 2005 I took a position as a Science/Math teacher in a remote Eskimo village in the Alaskan bush until 2010. During my tenure in Alaska I had the opportunity to teach and tutor all age groups ranging from first grade to adult and covering subjects that included all sciences and math to social studies and language arts. By being in two different villages over a period of five years, neither of which village totaled no more than 185 students, I had many unique experiences that few others are exposed to during a lifetime. Without a doubt I am an excellent candidate for this position based on my teaching style, my life experience, my education, my enthusiasm and my love for science and life-long learning. Not on

My methods are rather traditional. I beleive that there is no way around hard work. I will explain the problems in many different ways in order for the student to grasp a particular concept. I also am a irm believer that the more problems a student does, the better they become in doing the material. Taught AP, Honors and Regent level Biology and Honors Physics at Preston High School in NY Most of my students recieved Mastery or above on state exams at the end of the year.Most of my students scored above 620 on the SAT biology subject exam. Tutored throughout my college years the subjects: Chemistry, Biology, Anatomy and Physiology and Microbiology.
