May I be a personal tutor for you or your child? I have been successfully tutoring for over 12 years. I have some glowing letters of recommendation, and among the highest ratings in this region. I graduated with honors, Summa Cum Laude from Case Western Reserve University, where I made the Dean's List. I also earned a Provost Academic Scholarship for my excellent test scores, including 780 in SAT mathematics and 34 in ACT mathematics. In addition to teaching for public schools, I currently teach 20 private sessions each week, 1st through 12th grade, as well as college students and business professionals. I have also served on the faculty at Cuyahoga Community College. I am patient, friendly and many students tell me that I explain concepts more effectively than their teachers. I am available weekdays or weekends, days or nights, throughout the entire year. Best of all, my rates are ... read more

Earth Science is one of my top subjects!

I've worked extensively while attending college tutoring both as a volunteer in public schools and as a personal tutor. While tutoring in a public school setting I worked both with individual students and small groups in math and science classrooms. I am a registered and licensed Life Science Educator through the university I attended and additionally I am a registered and licensed Environmental Educator through an independent program with the state of Ohio. My hours are flexible as is the subject I can assist with. I am fully trained in educating students between grades 7-12 in both Life Science (Biology, Physiology, Anatomy, Zoology) and Earth Science (Environmental, Geological). Once I am given the scope of content that needs assistance I am fully willing to help with test prep, general study and knowledge retention, or developing unique ways to test and enhance your child's knowle ... read more

My comments on tutoring Earth Science : I have a solid background in physical and earth sciences. This includes the basics of physics, geology, atmospheric, and planetary science.

Patient and pragmatic, as well as empathetic. I will help the student decide what they can do, what they want or need to be able to do, how to get there, and coach them along the way.
I have earned a "Bachelors in the Science of Mathematics" degree, graduating from Lake Erie College with a 3.82 GPA. I have also taken several college level chemistry classes. A list of relevant college classes I have taken includes: Calculus 1,2,3, Differential Equations, Discrete Math, Linear Algebra, Abstract Algebra, Intermediate Analysis, General Chemistry and lab 1,2, Organic Chemistry 1 lecture only, Quantitative Analysis (chemistry with lab), Geology 1 with lab, Physics 1 with lab, Intro to C Programming, and Philosophy.

Have taught many of my peers in a wide variety of subjects including history, science, and math. I also taught Introductory Biology lab course at the University of Dayton. I have also taught in a more informal environment at the Great Lakes Science Center, where I ran science day camps for grades 2-8. Also played varsity football in college, which I would be more than happy to tutor in as well. I graduated from Oberlin College in 2012 where I majored in Biology. Coursework included genetics, evolution, ecology, molecular biology, vertebrate structure and function, physiology, neuroscience, neurophysiology, ancient egyptian culture, human origins, economics, ancient greek and roman history, american history, calculus, and statistics. I was also accepted to and studied at the University of Dayton graduate program. I studied for a short time in molecular physiology in work towards a ... read more

As a student myself I know exactly what I want and expect out of a teacher. Learning is exciting for me, and it is important to me that I convey the 'fun' aspects of learning to my students. I am believe in conforming the way I teach to match the student's learning abilities. It is my job to make sure the student walks away fully understanding the information as opposed to acting like they understand it.
As a young student I was very motivated to attend medical school at a young age. I received a bachelor degree, BS, in biology with minors in both psychology and chemistry. After graduating with my undergraduate degree early, I unexpectedly found a passion for teaching. Currently, I am working towards my masters degree, MS, in biology. Along with this I have been teaching introductory science labs for the university. I also, enjoy tutoring, one-on-one, students ranging from 2 ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have experience working with learners of all ages. My earliest classroom experiences while studying at Kent State were with Kindergarten and 1st Grade classes, and I have substituted in classrooms all the way up through high school. I have worked with adults in a GED prep and ESL environment, and my certification/area of expertise is with adolescent and young adult learners.
I always seek to individualize my instruction. No two learners are alike, and this often gets lost in a busy crowded classroom. I believe that the ability to tailor instruction to a student's individual needs is essential for academic success.

I think teachers make a great difference in the life of students. I remember most of my grade school teachers and because of them I decided to pursue a career in the field of math and sciences. I love giving back to my community. I love working with children, and I want your child to be successful. I will help make your child understand that of education is important and why we study certain disciplines. They is no way to master problem solving but to practise asmany times as possible. Understanding of the subject matter is also key, especially in biology. My goal is to make studying and learning for your child a fun experience and something they can relate to in real life

I am a good listener and let the student tell me what problems they are having in any subject. I ask them questions to get them to think about what they're learning in depth. I let them explain things to me instead of just explain everything to them, this way I can find out what they already know and give them feedback so that they can improve on their weaknesses. I am patient with them and let them work at their own pace, never rushing them. I tailor my tutoring to each student's individual needs.
I tutored at Case Western Reserve's Center for Civic Engagement and Learning. I tutored kids of in middle school at the local library in all subjects. I have a bachelor's degree in biology and am in the postbaccalaureate program in nutrition.

I graduated my MS in Physics from The University of Akron. While doing my MS degree I was a part time teaching assistant. I taught labs for undergraduate students. I completed my M.Sc. in physics back in Nepal in 2003. After completing M.Sc. I taught unergraduate level physics for 4 years.
In my view teaching is a wonderful experience and a great opportunity to learn more and to share with others what we have learnt. I especially enjoyed helping students to understand physics. The work convinced me to set my goals in life studying and teaching.

As a former teacher and business leader, I have come to believe in two fundamental ideologies that allow me to focus on what is important in setting up a proper environment for learning. The first is that science must be a major part of education today so that students will be able to function in the world of tomorrow. The second belief is that within every child is a spark waiting to be ignited by the teacher into a learning flame. These two beliefs coupled with my enthusiasm and love for learning make me a perfect match for your company.
