I enjoy drawing parallels between the coursework I am teaching and real life. My own high school biology teacher used this approach, and with it he was able to maintain the students' interest and motivation. I believe that students are more eager to learn when they realize that their coursework has real-world applicability. As a high school student, I spent time tutoring other students in science and math. I went on to study biology at Cornell University, where I earned my B.S. Upon graduation I decided to attend medical school, but I recently realized my true desire is to teach. I currently possess all the required knowledge to teach biology, and I will soon be pursuing my Master's and certification in education.

Melinda H - Buffalo, NY 14223 (41.1 mi) - German Tutor - $47.00/hr.
In college, I tutored kids K-5 on primarily their reading skills. However, I also asked them if they needed any help with any other subject and what material was covered. From this I would put together study outlines from their notes and textbook. This allowed me to know ahead of time what should be emphasized. Also, when teaching a biology field to a more mature individual, I find that reading up on the material actually emphasizes my passion for the field. There also have been times I have made up mnemonics for certain biology topics, whether it is a rhyme, story, or parody of a song. I find that it makes learning the material easier and more enjoyable. My friends always have enjoyed them as the mnemonics always can create a laugh. I have a very strong passion for learning and teaching various topics within Biology, such as studying genetics, microbiology, immunology, biochemist
