Chemistry Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Grandy, MN

I believe in using the Socratic method. This method is a powerful tutoring device because it allows students to come up with the answers on their own. This is key to developing a full understanding of the material. I am a sophomore at Washington University in St. Louis studying biomedical engineering. I am a former Princeton Review ACT Teacher. This job taught me how to use the Socratic method to help students discover how to solve problems on their own. I used this experience as an ACT teacher to perfect my tutoring skills. I am currently a Math Mentor for Washington University students. I am looking to expand my tutoring opportunities.

I had been tutoring at MCTC (Minneapolis Community and Technical College) for more than 2 years. I have lots of experiences for helping people understanding the subjects' concepts, materials. I am currently a student at Metro State University and trying to finish my Applied Math Major. I have had lots of fun with students when I was tutoring them. Even my major is in Math, but I took a lot of Physics and some Chemistry (upto Principle 1). And I am enjoying for teaching all three of subjects.

I believe that every person has an optimal way in which they learn. Ideas that seem complicated can be made easy by simply changing the way in which it is presented. As a teacher it is important for me recognize how my students best learn and use that to present material. I also believe that students need to feel comfortable with their teachers. That is why I make an effort to get to know my students on a personal level. Knowing the things that are important to them helps to make a connection and can motivate them to learn. I have always had a passion for helping others learn. In high school I tutored students from different schools in math. After graduating with two bachelor's degrees from the University of Minnesota I began working full time as a financial analyst for Target Corporation. At the same time, I started teaching part time at a learning center. In the past three years I

Working with children is my passion. I beleive that alll children deserve the tools necessary to be successful in academic and personal growth in order to be successful in the path that is chosen for themselves. I believe that with the right tools each student is capable of fullfilling individual success. I believe that over the years I have touched many students lives to help them be successful. I strive to make sure that no matter the struggle that the student is experiencing I will be able to be successful in helping them reach their goals and build self-confidence to be successful independently. As an educator in the school district I have multiple areas of experience that include academics in math, science and reading. I also have experience in dealing with multiple levels of reading levels that are conducive to cognitive, behavioral, or emotional problems that prevent optimal

I believe that each child has their own special style of learning in which they succeed the best at. When I tutor students I take the time to get to know each student on an individual basis and as a unique person. I make it a priority to determine their learning style and use that to implement a plan. I try and understand the reason they are having problems in their studies and then execute a plan in which they can succeed. I create study guides, review questions, and sample test questions for the students as well. In addition, a tutor can be a positive role model in student's lives and serve as a mentor and can be a person who the students can count on to answer questions. As a student I enjoyed school and learning and therefore went on after high school to obtain a B.S in Biology. I have always enjoyed science, math, and writing and enjoy helping others in these subjects as well

I have two BS degrees, one in physics and Education and a masters degree in Physics. I am also a licensed teacher, teaching Physics and Chemistry, and three-time variance to teach Math. My 11 year experience in teaching in public, Alternative high and charter schools has prepared me for this job. My teaching style is such that students are taken and made active learners and not just as recipients of knowledge. Students have to own their learning. Students are encouraged to come up with the answers by leading them toward the answer and this involves using past experiences and knowledge leart earler instead of being given the answers. Collaborative learning is encouraged in my classes, because I believe that students can learn from each other.

I have developed numerous skills set in the area of quality control testing and reviewed documents under the general guide line and established protocol which abide by the FDA. Although my career was based in industrial analytical chemistry and biology, I also voluntarily tutored my nephews, neices, my wife, and groups of Oromo student at my community with math, Chemistry, Anatomy, Physiology and general biology both at high school level and college level. I love teaching student who needed help to the best of my knowledge. I believe that everyone is able to learn and reach their goal in their own way or with a little help. I am skilled at working with students who need help; I am highly motivated to provide information and solutions to potential and existing leaning methodology.

I believe that people learn in different fashions. For example, I feel that some concepts may be better explained with tangible objects while other concepts are learned better when questioned and discussed. By exploring the different ways of learning we can find what works best for that individual and use that method as a tool for their understanding. I feel, in the past, that many of the peers I tutored not only obtained/recollected more information, but were more comfortable in a quiet, relaxed environment. By providing this, it sets the foundation for them to focus on the task at hand. Having attended higher learning institutions for over 6 years, my drive for more education is apparent. Throughout my experiences, not only have I been tutored, but have tutored my peers in mostly math and sciences. I have developed my speaking and writing abilities through my own employment experiences

I teach and assess alternately. I use audiovisual aids, reading, labs, and other activities. I start with the building blocks and add inquiry or higher order thinking. I use technology when it makes sense and older methods when they make sense. Reading is still valuable. I have long term subbed in life science and biology. I taught Summer school in reading, math and science. I have taught under contract math, general science, biology, chemistry, physics, math, and driver education.

My teaching style is one of real life applications, fun, and making it understandable. For example, when discussing slope, we can study downhill skiing or rooftops. When solving equations, I approach it from unraveling a number trick. I prefer to coach students on how to approach problems, and design which questions to ask themselves, rather than memorizing a list of techniques whenever possible. My funny and outgoing style blends well with all learning styles and personality types. 10 Years of teaching Math experience at the Junior High and Senior High level. I taught Basic Standards Math, Pre-Algebra, Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, and ACT Test Prep. Through my Master's Coursework, I integrated the Cognitive Tutor which was a computer program that assisted with the thought process in problem solving. Through the 5 years that I used it, students' interest in Math had risen whil

Teaching is my life and it is what I do best. I am very patient, considerate and fun. I truly believe in providing a relax learning environment to maximize student's learning potential. Students learn best if concepts are significantly correlated to real life experiences thus, motivating their interest to learn and helping them to remember concepts easily. I have been teaching for over 20 yrs. to a very diverse group of students. I ave completed 49 academic units for PhD in Biology and presently teaching Human Anatomy and Physiology to nursing students.I am also equipt to teach major Biology subjects like Genetics, Embryology and Physiology as well as fundamental concepts in Biology and Zoology.

I prefer an interactive teaching style where the student determines how much they get out of it. I generally will not give a student an answer but will help them along until they can answer the question for themselves, thus making them more independent learners. As a tutor, I primarily held 1 on 1 appointments several days a week. I primarily tutored in all levels of chemistry from general to biochem and I also tutored in accounting due to the introductory course that I had. My work as a supplemental instructor was by far the most rewarding. My job was to attend the Nursing Chemistry lectures and to take notes and create my own worksheets based on the material. I then conducted 2 review sessions per week to help the students master the material.
