Learning can be fun!!

When tutoring, I strive to make lessons engaging, effective and enjoyable. Specifically, I tailor lessons according to an individual student's needs and involve students in a dialogue by asking questions that provoke thought, conversation, and perhaps humor. Because facts and figures are easily looked up in the information age, I place particular emphasis on thinking and on "learning how to learn". My teaching goals for any student are threefold: 1. learn the material (well!) 2. pass the test/subject (with a comfortable margin!), and 3. enjoy it (most challenging with math!).
I love learning and teaching alike. My first teaching experience was in high school when I helped teach inner city children how to swim. Following high school, I earned a bachelor's degree in genetics at UC Berkeley, during which time I worked as a teacher's assistant for a genetics professor. While in m ... read more

My comments on tutoring Genetics : Academics

Experience in teaching and tutoring science, mathematics and English. Strong academic background in mathematics: basic mathematics, algebra, geometry, trigonmentry, calculus and statistics; science: biology, botany, chemistry, genetics, physics and engineering; English: grammar, reading, vocabulary, composition and technical writing, speech and presentations.
My teaching style depends on the indivual and his/her learning abilities. I believe that anyone can learn a subject if they are moviated and consistant in doing homework and asking quetions.

I was a dedicated student throughout high school and college. I earned my Bachelor's in Electrical Engineering from Drexel University. I know work as a systems engineer performing mission analysis on guidance, navigation, and control aspects of rocket systems. I also mentor a FIRST robotics high school team. In 6 weeks we design and manufacture a robot to play a unique game set out each year. Through this experience I have a strong educational background and first hand mentoring experience.

If you don't like the results, I haven't done my job.

All I do is tend to my students needs. I'm personal. Like to get off track with my students and lead them back to the point.
I won the state championship in the 100 meters and went to Adams State College in Alamosa CO. Broke a leg in track and received withdrawn F across the board. Left college and healed up. Went to the Army two years and reserve three years. Came back and picked up the quickest degree possiable. Moved to Hawwaii, three years. Became a ciritified dept of defense government contractor. Furnish and deliver contracts. Ended up moving back home to Albuquerque NM. I started working in the Indian Casinos for 13 years. I bought a house and retired. But now I'm tired of sitting around.

As a tutor, I know I will be responsible for teaching, tutoring, and offering assistance on various math assignments and test preparations to students. I have worked with students both privately and in group sessions. I am a very patient person, friendly, and optimistic. I truly believe that I can make a difference in a student's life because I have experienced it before. When I was a peer math tutor, I found it to be so rewarding to be able to help a student get through a difficult course with my assistance and encouragement. I look forward to experiencing these rewards again as a tutor with this program.
During my own college career, I have attained experience working with students as a tutor, teacher's assistant, and peer. I have always enjoyed working with students and feel that my work and coursework experience has adequately prepared me for this position. As a recent g ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I worked with students from the age of eight to eighteen. Each age group provided its own set of challenges and opportunities to strengthen my experience as a tutor. I worked with children in small groups or one-on-one, based on the child's learning style. I encouraged the children to set their academic goals high and use the support from their peers to help them achieve their goals. I have no one set teaching style, I get to know each student's learning style so that they can benefit the most from the tutoring session. Through patience, respect and dedication, I work with students so that they can achieve their goals.

It is essential that the student learns, both the basics and the specifics of the subject matter being presented to him or her. It is equally essential that the instructor presents those concepts to the student in a manner that is clear, easy to understand and meaningful. Not only have I been colleged trained as a professional educator with BS degrees in Biological Sciences and Human Anatomy & Physiology, I possess additional inherent skills and talents that enable me to teach effectively and for the student to learn significantly as a result. I have sucessfully taught and tutored students in general, college prep and advanced biology and anatomy.
I found consistently thoughout my teaching career that learning is enhanced with adjunctive, extensive illustrations and a hands on approach with related laboratory investigations whenever possible. I so enjoy my approach to teaching ... read more

I am a person that is driven by the joy you get when a student finally understand something they didn't think they could. I am a teacher that will change my approach depending on the student and I will not stop until I am sure that they "get it". My strengths are physics, chemistry and math and i love making these subjects fun for all ages.
As engineering student I was always dedicated to my studies,and I truly enjoy learning. During my high school and college years I was a swimming coach at the local swim club and that is were I realized my love for teaching. After moving to the U.S. I worked as a substitute teacher for the desert sands unified school district for almost 8 months before entering my CLS training program. I am currently working with the School of medical technology program to enhance the curriculum and better the educational experience.

I have always had a passion for teaching and hope to continue teaching in academic sciences. I enjoy working with children and young adults sharing my passion for learning. I believe the best way to learn is through trial and error and I encourage my students to attempt to solve problems before we attempt to find the answer. I believe that students learn best in an encouraging environment and providing this for them will give them the best chance at success. As a student who is constantly continuing my education I can relate to the issues my students have in grasping and conquering issues. I also believe that practice is the best way to master material and encourage my students to practice, practice and practice.

A Little Bit About Me...

Teaching is one of my passions, and I intend to teach at the college level after obtaining my M.S. My fourth grade teacher sparked my love of science at an early age; she was so excited about the material and invested in us that we couldn't help but learn. This experience instilled in me a desire to share my passion for academia, specifically chemistry and biology, with others. I believe that a passionate, invested teacher can do much to influence and encourage students. Because of my familiarity with the sciences, I am able to explain one concept in many different ways. I like to guide my students and help teach them to think for themselves. I believe that this will ultimately equip them to be successful in all their future endeavors.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a graduate of Virginia Tech with a BS in Biology with a concentration in microbiology. I also have minors in leadership and Chemistry. Therefore my understanding of the sciences and basic mathematics is quite extensive. For two years in school I tutored in mainly Chemistry but I also tutored in Chemistry applied mathematics such as statistics, geometry and algebra. I also was an EMT for five years and as part of my duties I mentored the new EMTs. I also, as a senior EMT member, hosted many Girl Scout and Boy Scout events.
I am a firm believer that the science subjects are not as difficult as many students are afraid they are. In my past tutoring experiences I like to allow the student to explain to me in their terms their understanding of the subject. I then fill in the gaps or revise their understanding. I am very patient and easy going person. I love the sciences. ... read more
