Genetics Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Essex, MA

I graduated from Binghamton University (SUNY) in 2008 with a double degree in Linguistics (B.A.) and Neuroscience (B.S.). After working as a behavioral neuroscience research technician for nearly two years, I pursued a position in 2010 at Cornell University within their Behavioral and Evolutionary Neuroscience program. I am currently a doctoral student in Neuroscience at Tufts University Sackler School of Graduate Biomedical Sciences, pursuing my dissertation research in a biochemistry lab studying GABA receptor structure and function. I have been tutoring the sciences since my undergraduate years at Binghamton. I have worked with students in a wide variety of coursework, ranging from linguistics (anthropological and psycholinguistic) to the harder sciences (including biology, chemistry, basic neuroscience, and experimental psychology). My tutoring and teaching experience, however, ha

Hello. I majored in Biology in college with a minor in Chemistry. I graduated with honors and was a tutor throughout my college career in Biology, Genetics, Anatomy, Physiology, Histology, and Microbiology. I went on to receive a Masters in Biomedical Science from UMDNJ where I also worked in the Radiation Research Laboratory exploring the Bystander effect of cells exposed to radiation therapy. I went on to explore veterinary medicine working in the Emergency Room of a 24 hour veterinary specialty hospital. I believe that breaking down complex processes is key to understanding any aspect of Science. Pathways and processes become easier to grasp when broken down to smaller components. Repetition is key and study tools are essential. Catering to a particular student's learning style is important as we all learn at different paces and in different ways.

I'm an enthusiastic biology PhD student at MIT, who holds a BS in biochemistry, who loves to teach. From as early as my freshman year in college I've been privileged to help tutor classmates and friends in subjects as varied as physical chemistry and biology. I spend a lot of my free time working as a volunteer tutor with underprivileged elementary and high school students struggling in math and science. I'm patient, attentive, and flexible in adapting to different learning styles.

Casual, one-on-one to large groups, in both academic and personal settings. Through my research experience, I’ve been required to present and teach my findings in small groups to fellow lab members, in large seminar settings to my peers and younger students across other departments and grade levels, and one-on-one settings with the principle investigators of the research group. To do so requires 3 key points: 1. Understand the audience, 2. present the material in a way based on the audience, and 3. anticipate any knowledge gaps the audience may have in order to effectively answer all questions.

I have had an opportunity to teach in several different locations and age groups. I first taught in a low income preschool where I focused on making children excited to learn through presenting the material in an interesting manor. Next, I spent two semesters in college working as a general chemistry lab instructor. I used the scientific method to have the students reach conclusions on their own and to have to present and explain these conclusions to their peers. I spent the last two years as a Peace Corps Volunteer where I gave many training and worked to teach a youth group. I tried to remain culturally sensitive and work to have the students remain comfortable and work to collaborate with each other. I received my BS in chemistry from the University of Pittsburgh. I worked as a laboratory instructor for general chemistry where I was responsible for students’ utilizing proper safety t

My experiences as a tutor and teacher have taught me enthusiasm and encouragement go a long way in helping a student both tackle and tolerate, if not enjoy, the subject. A few small successes give a student the self esteem to continue pursuing harder problems in a difficult subject. It is always important to start small, and work one's way up at the student's own personal pace. Adapting to the learning style of the individual is extremely important when working one-on-one. There are many ways to learn; verbal, visual, hands-on, reading instructions, etc... Learning is never one-size-fits-all and I try to keep that in mind as I teach. As an undergraduate, I was an enthusiastic student and often helped and tutored my peers. I began to tutor "professionally" my second year, teaching chemistry and mathematics to college students. I was chosen by my biochemistry professor to teach chemistry t

Having lived in three countries with different languages and cultures, my teaching style is now that of a mentor who explains the concept so that it could be understood in its context and also used in global thinking. I hold a PhD in Cell and molecular biology and I am a former Research assistant Professor of biology at Boston University where I carried a productive post-doctoral training in cancer biology, anticancer drug pharmacology and virology. I have been involved in cancer research for more than 10 years, during which, I authored several high impact papers including invited reviews, served as reviewer for international journals and grants, received grant support for my research, and was invited to international conferences. I was able to establish strong collaborative efforts, to publish and secure funding for my ideas and direct independent research. I trained many PhD students a

As an MIT graduate, I was particularly driven to excel in science and mathematics courses so as to be able to apply these to engineering and technology problems. I subsequently obtained two doctorate degrees: one in medicine and the second in law. I am currently working on the development and patenting of medical devices to improve medical care for patients. I have always loved teaching and tutoring and have done it for many years to supplement my income. My students tell me that I can explain the material in a very understandable way. I really love teaching and finding different ways of using analogies and similarities to explain difficult concepts. I have been very successful in teaching the sciences and mathematics courses in an understandable way. I believe that everyone is capable of learning the material, it simply needs to be presented in the correct way.

I've have always enjoyed working with children of all ages, and find that each child is unique. Each one learns in their own way, and one of my greatest strengths is being able to discover how each child learns best. I am a patient, easy going and perceptive person and believe that I can help any student get the most out of their education. My goal is to become a teacher because I love imparting enthusiasm and knowledge to children; I want to have the opportunity to be a positive role model and influence children in a positive direction, much like the teachers I had while growing up. I am currently studying to become a High School Biology Teacher and will be taking the Mass. Test for Education License in May 2011. In 2009 I joined AmeriCorps and worked for the Mountain Studies Institute in Durango Colorado. While I was there, I held educational workshops, presentations and forums. Whil
