Life Science Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Farmington, MI

As a teacher, I aim to perpetuate knowledge and inspire learning. More specifically, as a biologist I present the material with enthusiasm and point to its relevance in everyday life. Students respond better to learning something that impacts their lives rather than random facts. While teaching general biology, I noticed that several students would come into class assuming that they were unable to learn anything scientific. Students get overwhelmed with scientific jargon and spend too much time trying to memorize facts rather than learning processes. To alleviate this issue, I introduce terminology as it relates to the issue rather than simply expounding on definitions. I have devoted my energies towards learning the basic sciences and then using them for developmental purposes In August 2010, I received my Master of Science degree in Biology at the University of Houston. Also I have

I believe in on-hand materials, using all the modalities of hearing, seeing, & tactile. I have taught for over (23) years from Kindergarten to college Anatomy. I have raised MEAP scores significantly with Math, Reading, & Writing. I also played @ EMU with college football, from 1972-1975. See current resume for experience. The most important part of any passion is attitude & work ethic. I possess both. I have made a difference in many students lives, & I hope I can make a difference in your son/daughter's life.

I always teach through illustrations and examples so that the student can explain anything in his own words when he/she understands. I have given lectures about basics of microbiology and also virology on particular. I have taught post graduates during my Ph.D and explain everything in detail even now to my colleagues. I always believe that once the audience understands what you teach they wioll have questions. i will make my sessions as interactive as possibly can and help the students reach the answers themselves.

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. 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 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. 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.

Currently working as a chinese tutor. My family moved to Michigan 1 month ago from Massachusetts. In MA, I worked as a private Mandarin/Chinese tutor in Cambridge MA (2011); I taught two American student aged 11 and 13 years old. I taught them not only communication but also writing and reading in Mandarin. I was also the volunteer of Mandarin/Chinese Immersion Program in Martin Luther King’s Elementary School in Cambridge MA (2011). I was involved in preparation of teaching materials in Mandarin and search for suitable Mandarin reading materials for kids aged from pre-elementary to elementary. I am a patient and responsible person; I love to interact with students and kids. I understand that learning language is a process requiring practice and encouragement; therefore I talk to my students in Mandarin as much as possible in classes and give them confidence of using Mandarin anytime in

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. 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.
