My teaching style varies, depending on what the individual student needs, but it is always driven by an enthusiasm and verve for education (particularly in science) that I have been told is infectious (not a great thing to say to a biologist, but it's the thought that counts). Learning is most effective when the learner understands the importance of the material to their interests and the world around them. As such, one of my priorities when teaching is finding the relevance of the subject to the student and examining the concepts in the student's context. I tend to shy away from rote memorization, preferring active learning techniques and exercises that develop critical thinking skills, but I am flexible, depending on the student's abilities and response.
I am an evolutionary biologist and paleontologist who has been active in the field for over a decade. I have been a profess ... read more

My comments on tutoring Earth Science : Taught this to my children

I follow a Socratic method of teaching. Leading the student into discovery by asking them questions, understanding what the student knows/understands and building on that. I am low key, but demand a good grasp on the subject before moving forward with new information.
I have been home schooling my two children for 13 years. My oldest is graduating this year and attending the college of her choice. My youngest is in 9th grade. Through these years of experience, I have discovered the best ways to motivate, to understand a student and to help a student understand themselves and the way they best learn. I have a broad understanding of many subjects as a result of teaching them myself for the past several years.

More About This Tutor...

As a coach, I pay close attention to pedagogy as well as to the needs and learning styles of my students. With a very interdisciplinary background education in materials science and engineering physics, I bring rich applications to the classroom and thereby place the teaching of mathematics and physics into context for my students. I integrate technology into students’ learning experiences - using PowerPoint presentations and/or handouts from my lecture notes and outlines, requiring students to fill in some intentional blanks during class or their private study thereby keeping them engaged on the content. I ask appropriate leading and probing questions to explore the student’s lower and higher order thinking skills – cf. Bloom’s taxonomy.
A multi-lingual professional educator and research scientist with 20+ years of experience, I majored in engineering/energy physics and material ... read more

I enjoy teaching individuals of all ages and cultures. I adopt a hands on approach to learning and have extreme patience for slower learners. My main goal during teaching is to help one have a better understanding of the subject by relating to the material. To reach this goal it is imperative that I am resourceful enough to provide my students with vital and accurate information.
During high school I interned in a first grade classroom for one year in which I planmed/taught lessons. I also have young siblings and family members which I help with assignments on a daily basis. In college, I tutored students taking various Psychology courses. I enjoy conducting research, reading scientific articles, analyzing and interpreting data.

More About This Tutor...

I have a wide variety of experience in mentoring and teaching. As a graduate with a degree in journalism, I have excellent oral and written communication skills including spelling, grammar, and analytical writing. As a science teacher to a group of English language learners, I mastered the art of differential teaching to reach several different levels of learners. I've taught students performing several grade levels below where they should be, as well as students that were exceptionally gifted. I've taught: reading strategies, literacy development, middle-school science, writing, character building, leadership principals, organization/planning skills, and journalism.
My specialty is developing creative strategies to get students to develop a desire to learn. In my experience, I've found that tapping into students interests and finding a way to tie that into the lesson not only g ... read more

My teaching style varies according to the individuals. I am aware that people learn differently. I am patient and willing to break down a subject for clear understanding. After teaching, I very interested in the recipient teaching the subject back to me for a asurrance of understanding. Once a clear understanding has been established, students will be able to apply the same concepts to multiple problems to obtain the correct solution.
As an Industrial Engineering graduate of NC A&T State University, I have gained the a great appreciation of mathematical concepts and how they are applied in every industry and everyday life. When I know a subject, I can teach it. I am currently a Graduate student at Stratford University where I am seeking a Masters in Software Engineering.

A Little Bit About Me...

Guided by experiences in my life and lessons I’ve learned through teaching, I’ve come to understand that all children learn differently. My goal is to first determine where the students need help, based on their learning style, and then focus my knowledge and experience to help them using proven teaching techniques and my own teaching methods. My philosophy of education is that I believe that teachers should provide an opportunity to facilitate the academic, social, and individual growth of students. We should incorporate cooperative learning, which includes literacy, math and science manipulatives and writing to help children to work cooperatively and explore their various talents.
Teaching is my passion and I believe that by teaching I can instill firm educational values in children and help develop within them a desire to learn and grow, which will lead to academic pride and s ... read more
