MIT alum looking to tutor students in sciences and math

I love helping students understand concepts that might be confusing at first. I try to help them understand the big picture and then help them work through more detailed questions.
I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Chemical Engineering and Bioengineering from MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology). I also have a minor in Biology and Psychology. I have tutored several students during my studies, specifically in the sciences and math. I also have excelled in my English and writing classes throughout high school and college.

Recently Retired Female Engineer

I am a recently retired engineer. I spent last summer working in a City of Detroit grade school as a tutor. About ten years ago I taught Environmental Science classes at Wayne State as an adjunct faculty. This is the only official experience I have had teaching/tutoring; however during my academic career I frequently explained course material to fellow students and to study partners. During the 30 years I worked as a Chemist and as an Engineer I was frequently asked to explain technical information to a lay audience since I seemed to have a knack for doing just that.
I would classify my tutoring style as "old school." Ladies and gentlemen, the best way to learn a problem-based subject such as math or chemistry is to solve problems; there are no short cuts.

A Little Bit About Me...

Working in a teaching hospital during my residency for 3 years and as an attending physician since 2010 I have had the opportunity to teach medical students, residents and other medical staff ( RN LPN MA) on a regular basis.I have taught both basic and clinical health sciences to students to help them pass licensing exams
My approach to teaching is flexible I try to modify my style to fit the requirement of my students.

I have recently graduated from Wayne State University as a Ph.D. in Biochemistry. During my Ph.D. study, I have some experience to help undergraduate students on their homework. Also, I have mentored several summer students on their research and daily lab work. I am pretty happy to help students succeed in their courses. Since my major is Biochemistry, I think I have abilities to help students in general science classes, such as mathematics, chemistry and any life science courses. Besides these science courses, my native language is chinese and I think I can help your chinese too, if you like chinese and chinese culture.
I hope you can bring your textbook and study materials with your homework and exam papers while tutoring. I can help you find out the answers of your questions and improve your study.

Share your knowledge to someone else.

Critical thinking skills and untraditional ways are what I focus on. However the way someone learns, I will try to set the individual up to show how they learn and work with them. I will implement practices and materials I think will fit the student's profile. I feel a teacher wears many hats and you must be prepared to wear a different one any day.
I have been a tutor for 23 years and I have taught Adult Basic Education for 12 years. I am still continuing my education to receive a Masters degree and plan to get my PhD. I work for a community college and have done advising, enrollment, testing, phone directory, and student sevices. I have attended many professional development workshops on education.

More About This Tutor...

As a student at the University of Detroit Mercy, I worked as a tutor for two years. I helped other students struggling in mathematics and biology classes. Also, my senior year in college I worked as a Teaching Assistant for a Microbiolgy lab. In addition, I did student teaching for a Catholic Middle School.
Many people have different teaching skills and techniques. I do not believe any technique to educate a child is better than any other technique. Each child learns differently. Understanding the fact that children learn differently is crucial. The teacher must be able to adapt to the child's learning style. I believe I have the ability to use an array of teaching styles to help children. I would enjoy the opportunity to help children learn.

I do not believe that there is a single correct teaching style. Each student is an individual and as in any other task we take on, it must be approached in a unique manner. I have tutored enough students to learn that simply put, different children learn differently. I will approach each student this way and work to discover exactly what works best with that student in order to provide them with the conceptual understanding and study skills necessary to reach their full potential.
I received my B.S. in biopsychology from the University of Michigan in 2004 and am currently pursuing my M.D. from New York Medical College. After completeing two years of medical school, I chose to take a one year leave of absence to publish my research which is being funded locally here in Detroit.

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy working with children and providing them with the opportunity to better their education. The smile on a person's face when they understand the material or are able to solve a difficult problem is a great success for myself. I am extremely patient with people of all ages, I like to make sure to talk out everything with the student to get an idea as to their understanding of the material. I am really good with younger children, I have been babysitting for many years. I think the opportunity to teach people or just give them the tools to learn on their own is a wonderful experience.
As a high school student I tutored as part of the National Honor Society for 2 years. I tutored elementary and middle school students in group settings after school. I helped them with all subjects.

I attended Oakland University and earned a BS in Biology in 2008. Biology and chemistry fascinate me in many ways; however, for teaching purposes, i focus mainly on the academic part of these subjects. I was a member of the Oakland University Academic Skills Center, where i tutored biology, human physiology, general and organic chemistry, statistics and mathematics. Also i was a chemistry supplemental instructor for Organic Chemistry 1 and 2. My experience as a tutor opened up my eyes to many different types of learners, some are visual, some are auditory, and some are both. Everyone has different goals as a tutor, for me, my goal is always the same no matter who i tutor, to help understand and to enjoy the subject.
My style is discipline, thorough learning and practice. My best asset in tutoring would be communicating with my students. I'll never show any signs of superiorit ... read more

I build a relationship of trust with the students and offer positive reinforcement and use humor to engage all of them. My initial goal is to engage the students then move on to teaching with the final goal being the understanding of the subject in a way that is deeper then just memorization. I want the students to understand why cats see well in the dark instead of just knowing that they do. My specialty is English Literature but I enjoy teaching science and math.
I have privately tutored students that recently arrived from Japan in English with a focus on conversation to enable them to quickly feel comfortable in a new country.

I have a degree in English but I have completed through Calcu ... read more
