I believe in working hard and double majored in Zoology and Economics, receiving a BA in each. I am also just one class away from completing my MS in secondary education. I am recently certified in secondary education, biology. I have student taught, held two leave replacement jobs, and substituted during the certification process.
I embrace the challenge of figuring out how to engage and get through to each individual student. I believe in hands on learning, application, and working together to complete tasks.

More About This Tutor...

I try to be as personable as possible with students in order to make the learning experience fun and engaging. Teaching is truly an art. In order to succeed, a teacher must not only know the material cold, but he must also be able to relate to his students in order for the material to sink in.
As a Georgetown University graduate with a degree in government, I have extensive knowledge of various social sciences which I plan on taking to law school. In addition, I am a near-native speaker of Italian and am proficient in Spanish. I have a passion for both languages, and would love to be able to share that passion with students. I tutored students extensively throughout high school and currently tutor students in a variety of subjects.

I like teaching one on one. This makes it easier for me to explain to the student and understand them. Smaller groups also work well for me. I was a hands on student that learned through images and repetition. I believe this is a good way to learn not memorize. If you memorize you will forget, and that is pointless in the long run.
I graduated from St. Joseph's College in spring 2009 with a BS in biology. I graduated with a 3.2 gpa. I played softball for 4 years in college and was ranked 18th in the nation in my junior year. I did research in molecular biology and wrote a thesis on polycarbonate disruption of the endocrine system. I focued on bisphenol-a and its potential disruption in children. I currently work as a retinal surgeons assistant. I plan on going to Physican's Assistant school.

More About This Tutor...

As I recently received my undergraduate degree in Biology from Barnard College of Columbia University, I am up-to-date on the relevance of the material today's students are studying. I also have several years experience instructing middle school and high school age pupils about molecular Biology at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory's Dolan DNA Learning Center. In addition to teaching in a classroom setting, I also privately tutored a student for preparation of the Verbal sections of the SATs.
I hope to be an inspiration to my students. I believe the best way to get students interested in their material is to show them "real-world" examples. I think it's vital to bridge the gap between abstract knowledge and its application in students' day-to-day lives. Because of my vast teaching and laboratory experience, I have found explaining to students the relevance current study material could ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I love interacting, teaching, and talking to students. My pleasure comes from seeing the bright smile on a child's face when the confidently turn to me to let me know that they understand what I have taught them. I enjoy developing different strategies for a person to understand the material being learned based around their learning approach, whether they are visual or auditory learners. I like to find fun, simple methods to memorize material. I believe that various ways at understanding material make it quicker to master more information in the same amount of time. Extra help from me as a tutor can make a world of a difference as your child proceeds in his/her educational experience.

I am an enthusiastic educator passionately committed to effective teaching and life-long learning.

I also conduct biological surveys and look for opportunities to involve children of all ages in citizen science projects. Over the last couple of years I began teaching and am certified in high school Chemistry, Physics, and Biology scoring an excellence on all science certification tests.

My classroom lessons and activities are created around the belief that children learn best by doing. I choose to go beyond the traditional science classroom and provide a dynamic and engaging classroom environment focused on students. I choose to be the navigator, guiding students through the learning process, rather than being the process itself. By providing the support and encouragement, I hope that my students will move from being dependent on the instructor for information to being the seeker of knowledge. Regardless of their chosen path, every child will learn during their time with me and create a foundation of knowledge from which to build.
During my four years of college, I learned an extensive degree of time management. I was a full time biology student with an education certification attached, a softball player (captain for last two years), and a supervisor at a loc ... read more

I would say that all people are capable of learning and improving their abilities, knowledge, and skill. My experience has been that if a child, youth, or adult is given the space in which to learn, and introduced to material in a patient manner, in the style that works for them (be that through explanation or visual learning, etc) they will take the initiative to learn and grow at the pace and direction which works for them. People are naturally inclined to learn and grow, and my experience is that when given the opportunity and supportive role of a teacher, they will become interested in learning and continue to do so.
After graduating from college with a BA, I began working for an environmental restoration and public education program. We led large volunteer groups sometime of more than 100 people, in local park and forest restoration event, and also led youth groups on 10 day r ... read more

I hold a Master's degree in Biology and my cumulative GPA was a 4.0. My concentration within the Master's program, was Physiology and Pathophysiology. As an undergraduate, I majored in Animal Science and completed a fair amount of Microbiology courses (e.g., Virology, Microbial Genetics, and Microbial Physiology). My GPA was 3.5.
As far as I am concerned, if a tutor/teacher does not have a PASSION for their subject of expertise,then they will be unable to convey the importance/real world applications of the subject to others. Biology is the main focal point of my life and I never tire of reading/studying as much of the current literature as humanly possible. I also have "Real life" experience working within the fields of Biotechnology and Microbiology. Thus, I am able to educate a student or future Biologist, regarding the overall employment outlook and salaries within the fie ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Educational Philosophy Teacher-directed classroom management is most closely aligned with my beliefs in the beginning of a school year because I want the students to understand that I am the leader of the classroom and that ultimately I am responsible for what transpires in the classroom. As the school year progresses, it is my belief that the classroom should continue to evolve with a student-centered approach with an emphasis on students vesting in learning as much as they can from inquiry and from each other. I want to shape a positive learning environment where students are excited about working to their own potential.
I currently have professional certifications in biology, chemistry and a general science extension 7-12. I am also a certified athletic coach with CPR/AED/First Aid training through the American Red Cross. I have been lucky eno ... read more
