After graduating with top honors from high school, I began my college career at the University of North Florida, receiving my BS in biology with Baccalaureate Honors in 2002. I began my PhD in Ecology at Old Dominion University in 2004, and after completing a 150 page dissertation on spiders and carnivorous plants, passing written and oral comprehensive exams, and completing over 72 hours of graduate coursework, I was awarded my PhD in 2010. I have won multiple teaching awards, including the 2009 Biology Dept Adjunct Professor of the Year at Old Dominion University. I have taught general biology lab and lecture, genetics lab and lecture, ecology lecture, and evolution lecture at multiple academic institutions over the past six years.
As an educator and a biologist, I am continually striving to excite students’ interests in the unknown. I also work constantly to instill proper ... read more

I have a direct and simple teaching method. I love teaching physics and it always came naturally to me but I understand that most people do not feel the same way. I try to help students gain a deep understanding of the subject matter so that the principles and concepts are learnt and not simple formula memorizing. I do this so that when the student comes across a problem that does not fit the general shape of previous problems they can use the concepts learned to solve the problem. In short I try to teach problem solving and not rote learning in my subjects.
I have been tutoring,mentoring and teaching students over the last 5 years in Physiology, Physical Fitness, and Physics. I have taught online, one on one and in a classroom setting. I have taught practical application to theory as well as theory of the relevant subjects. I have been involved in research projects as well as publ ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I teach with the assumption that everyone can learn anything. At the core of my teaching philosophy is the mental model or concept. Consequently, my first goal is to determine if the student has a mental model of the subject matter. If not, I will guide them in discovering a useful one using their existing models and their preferred input mode (tactile, visual, etc.). If a student does have a mental model then I will test its accuracy using the standard procedures approved and or recommended by the institution of enrollment. Further encounters are then simply for reinforcement until the student is confident.
Over several years as a teacher, tutor, and teaching assistant I have had the privilege of refining my teaching strategy. For example, as a physics tutor, I coached a high school senior who was intimidated with the subject how to master it using a simple reproducible foundation ... read more

I recently graduated and am working part time for a lab while I am continuing my education to get certified as a teacher. I hope to get a position as a biology teacher next year and tutoring would be a good way to get a bit more hands on experience teaching.
I have a 5 and 9 yr old sibling, I enjoy helping on school projects and helping with homework. While in college I often gave help to fellow students and aided in studying before exams.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have loved Chemistry since high school. I have learned that many people have different ways of learning. In Chemistry, one has to be able to understand the concept and apply the concept. My goal is to provide the basics of Chemistry in the best possible way I can. I believe that one can not learn if they do not try. I strive to help others understand and succeed.
As a college graduate, I have tried to do the best that I could in my field of study. I have earned my BS in Chemistry, which has enabled me to understand math and science. I have tutored students in General Chemistry, as well as Organic Chemistry.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate of top universities from China and the U.S., I know how important education is for both children and parents. I got my B.S., M.S., and Ph.D.in various fields of chemistry. I have worked as a chemist for many years in both academic and industrial research environment, which gave me the unique advantage to teach students the real life applications of chemistry and sciences. I have taught an undergraduate chemistry class and tutored both undergraduate and graduate chemistry classes. Over the years, I have also tutored Chinese language, which is my native language.
I am a very patient teacher. I like to show my students how to solve a problem step by step, and help them to master the logic behind it. By doing this, my students can apply the same logic and rules to solve other problems independently. I also like to inspire my students to apply the course content in a crea ... read more

I earned my Ph.D. in polymer chemistry from a prestigious academic institution in London, England, UK. My early education was in Bangladesh from where I earned a master and bachelor degrees with honors in chemistry. In addition to specialization in chemistry, I had passed degree level courses in physics and mathematics. These were requirements for B.S. Honors degree and have enabled me to gain an understanding in basic math and sciences. During my long professional life as an industrial and academic researcher in chemistry, I have learned advanced writing skills through research proposal and report writing. These are parts of principal job responsibilities. And, I found new college graduates were severely lack of these skills. I used these skills during mentoring my employees and during tutoring in my early college life.
I believe every child is uniquely different. Each has his/her ... read more
