My comments on tutoring Genetics : My favorite topic in science, genetics is my true passion and I enjoy learning about it in my spare time as well.

Hello! My name is Amanda and I'm an experienced science tutor. I have been tutoring college-aged learners since 2009 at Maria College, where I focus on anatomy & physiology, chemistry, and biology. I received my BS in biology from Siena in 2010, and went straight on to my MSEd in Adolescent Education from St. Rose, where I graduated in 2012. I am certified to teach General Science and Living Environment in grades 7-12. I also have expert knowledge of study skills and how to tailor tutoring to meet each individual student's needs.
My style is very flexible. I understand that some students just need to hear another person tell them the information, while other students require an in-depth discovery of each concept. I can provide both and anything in between to match you or your child's individual learning needs. I am versed in the Cornell Method of note taking, and have many other "t ... read more

Read More About Cheryl H...

I currently manage a research lab at Albany Medical College. During my tenure here in the past six years, I have been able to instruct techniques that I have learned and developed to other colleagues and students that have worked in the laboratory, even though my teaching experience began in high school as a laboratory assistant in the 10th grade biology classroom. Currently, as a lab manager, I am responsible for training new students in techniques as well as instructing and teaching interns through various independent study programs in both technique and theories behind their projects. I have mentored three undergraduate interns, as well as assisted multiple PhD students as they begin their scientific careers.
I am very much a hands-on teacher, given that a lot of what I teach current needs to be done in order to fully comprehend the concepts being put to use. I am also a fir ... read more

More About This Tutor...

While obtaining my biology degree from LeMoyne college I worked with underpriviledged children in an afterschool program. This program was aimed at keeping these children off the street while their parents were at work along with helping them improve their grades. My duties included helping them with their homework and tutoring them in problem subjects as expressed by their teachers. This was a volunteer job that I found very rewarding. While my experience is with elementary aged children I would love tutor subjects more specific to my degree as well.
I find working with children and students to be a very rewarding area of work. I love to learn and therefore love to help others learn. I am a strong believer in that with the right encouragement and hard work all children are able to learn. I believe it is important to make education interesting for children and provide "re ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that in order to succeed in teaching and being an educator you must inspire those that you are teaching. A child who is excited to learn, will do much better. I feel a hands on approach is best, guiding the child to personal success.
As a Siena College graduate I developed a very hands on approach to active learning. Through classroom lecture and instruction I've completed the necessary coursework to complete my BS of biology. Due to my strong work ethic I've gained knowledge and skills in the physical sciences, as well as in other subject areas. During my college years I subbed as teacher at a public K-12 school. During that time I taught a variety of grade levels, and worked as a one-on-one aide.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been an amateur tutor ever since high school, when I tutored classmates for free. I spent 6 years as a nuclear trained electrician in the US Navy, 10 years in academia where I studied and taught psychology, biology, and communications, and the past 10 years in retail management. I took it upon myself to conduct impromptu training sessions in many different areas of study while in the Navy, and actively helped shipmates engaged in external study programs. I implemented a tutoring program for pre-med and pre-vet students and others while a member of Beta-Beta-Beta (the National Honor Society for Biology) at Southern Illinois University. I have used my teaching and training skills in innumerable situations as a retail manager. I am a life-long learner and actively acquire and absorb lectures on cd in many disciplines through The Teaching Company.

More About This Tutor...

I feel the best way to learn is by doing repetitive and challenging exercises that will ultimately lead to the success of your child. Learning can often be a struggle for many people. I'm able to make complex material more easy to understand, something that will benefit your child in the long-run.
I am a graduate of Penn State and hold have a BS degree in Biology. I was an accelerated student (Graduated in 3 and a half years) and am planning on attending medical school next year. My degree has given me comprehensive insight into mathematics and science. Additionally, I held an independent research position at Penn State and am in the process of being published as a co-author in The Journal of Nutrition.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is fueled by my personal enthusiasm for academics. For instance, my passion for math and science embodies how I approach the world. I think of life on a molecular level. In other words, where many get frustrated with complex theories as they become increasingly abstract, I can easily visualize the intangible and relay concepts in more graspable terms that most teachers and textbooks cannot provide. I bring humor and light-heartedness to abstract subject matter, thus making critical-thinking less critical and just thought. Having conversations about how science informs the world is an important part of my livelihood. Furthermore, rather than conversing with colleagues, sharing my knowledge with those who have difficulty understanding subjects where I excel, brings me such gratification. Knowing that I have helped someone else understand an aspect of the world even just a ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and I am very interested in helping children/young adults better their lives by achieving their goals academically. I consider myself to be very in-tune with the mindset of children and employ various tricks of the trade to engage them in learning. I am very proud of the students I teach and I strive to help them better their own lives. A very important aspect of my teaching style is to help the children help themselves. Anyone can give them the answers, but I consider giving them the skills to find answers when I'm not there helping them a more important goal.
As a student in a professional college I am very focused on learning and I have gained many skills and useful tips for studying. As a mentor with a program that my college hosts, I teach inner city 3rd grade students about science and math and reading. The purpose of the program is to encourage them to stay i ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I prefer a “vertically integrated” teaching style. Science is a continuum, with complex topics being reducible to simple concepts. I will work with a student to break down difficult topics that are already problematic, and help them synthesize concepts into an integrated whole as new topics arise.
My education consists of a Bachelors of Arts degree in chemistry, with a minor in biology and significant field experience in academic research in both fields. My inaugural teaching experience was as an HEOP tutor for introductory physics. I have been a freelance tutor for organic chemistry for over a year, and have tutored Regents chemistry as well, and have volunteered my services to fellow students for two and a half years.

More About This Tutor...

The best teaching style in my opinion, explains how to research, plan and write essays, gives students time to practice these skills in class, and ensures students get feedback on how well they have done on each sub-skill. Students learn skills by using them in a realistic, subject-specific context, and in a combined way. So they might use other skills taught before such as note taking, highlighting, all in context. The purpose of the skills are stressed, students are taught not just what to do and how, but also why. The students then reflect on how well they used the skills, what gains they were getting and so on, and then they action plan for improvement.

A Little Bit About Me...

Through my teaching experience I have found it necessary to differentiate my teaching styles in order to be an effective teacher. Most often than not I have found that being a facilitator rather than a dictator is most beneficial to learning. I have learned that if students construct their own learning experiences they will not only retain information longer, but they will also become more confident in their abilities.
I have been Involved in the teaching and tutoring of academic subjects for the past 6 years of my life. I have a true passion for instilling the same love for education that I possess in my students. I have worked in about 9 different educational, tutoring, or mentoring facilities both before and after I graduated with my biology teaching certificate. I have used these experiences to not only develop my teaching strategies but to truly understand what ma ... read more
