Significant practical experience in the hard sciences as a molecular biologist as well as over twenty years of multidisciplinary aviation experience. I have tutored elementary through college-age youth and take pride in helping people grasp how and why things work - not just preparing them for a test.

Spanish, Biology, Chemistry and sciences tutor

I majored in Biochemistry and Pharmacology at the UNAM in Mexico City. Along with extensive coursework in Biology, Micro Biology, Chemistry, and related subjects, I also worked extensively in the lab conducting experiments connected with these subject areas. I can also tutor Spanish since it is my native language. I have great references from students I am currently working with.
First, I analyze my students to determine their learning style. Based on that, I customize my lessons to fit each individual student's needs. I commonly use visual tools such as colorful drawings and try to connect the material to real world situations.

Individual & Group Tutoring. Project-Based Enrichment

I have extensive experience as a k-12 and adult teacher of all subjects (excepting advanced math and science) and as a teacher of technology to all ages, including technophobes:) I offer specific subject tutoring, as well as project-based enrichment programs tailored to a student's interest. My experience is wide-ranging. I have taught home school groups in mixed age groups, created a wilderness eco-learning program in Hawaii, and managed a computer lab for middle/high school students that also trained teachers and developed technology-based curriculum. I love to teach:)

I enjoy helping people, particularly kids. It's a very good feeling to help kids understand so many of the concepts in science, math and computers that tend to stump them. I am an easy going and focused individual. I generally teach kids by relating the subject to something they are interested in. There is a very good example of this in the movie "Big", where Tom Hanks character is teaching algebra to a boy who likes basketball. This is a technique that I use frequently. I believe very strongly that kids need to understand the concepts underlying each problem so they can solve it through understanding and not just rote memorization.
I have BS degrees in both Physics and Nuclear Medicine. I was formerly a certified nuclear medicine technologist. I have worked as an engineer in the NASA community for much of my life and have a strong background in computers and software engin ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

The two main philosophies I try to live my life by are giving back more than what has been given to me, and always leave something in better condition then I found it. Life has not always been an easy road, but through hard work and determination I have risen above any adversity life has presented. I believe the juxtaposition of these philosophies with the leadership skills acquired through my years as a merchant mariner will help me reach my full potential as an educator. My qualifications include but are not limited to a United States Coast Guard Licensed Master Captain, Condominium President of a one hundred and sixty unit beach side complex in Cape Canaveral Florida, and a coach of a sixth through tenth grade hockey team.
The students of today will be the first generation to collaborate on a global scale and it will be necessary that they have an understanding of cultures other ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have worked within schools for the past six years. I also completed two student teaching requirements for my state certification. I have worked in schools both in Pennsylvania and in Florida in a volunteer capacity within the classroom. I have worked both with groups of students on projects, as well as with individuals who required more personalized instruction to meet their needs.
I believe in using all the resources available in order to be an effective teacher. Each student is individual and requires a different approach to learning. I believe it is imperative to address all the learing styles of your students. The key to teaching is the ability to interpret your students and tailor your teaching style to meet their needs.

Since graduate school I have been tutoring off and on mostly at the high school level in a variety of subjects, mostly math, through pre calculus, spanish, study skills, test preparation, history, sciences. I have also tutored elementary and middle school students. Although my education is in psychology I have been around teaching all of my life being raised by a school teacher. I am a mother of two small children and understand the importance of a good education, not only with teachers but with supplementary support of tutors and parents
I love working with all students but the majority of my experience is with high school students and helping to prepare them for college. My goal is for them to see college as an option that regardless of their financial situation that if they work hard and want it badly than they will succeed. I have tutored children with learning disabilities and ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

With a B.A. in Journalism, I have written for radio, TV, national magazines and several newspapers. I have worked with college-age and adult students teaching them English speaking and writing skills. In pursuing my Master of Education in TESOL, I have learned how to teach students about grammar, writing and reading. I will receive my Masters of Education in TESOL this Saturday, May 2nd. I enjoy working with ESOL students of all ages.
I have a communicative approach to learning. I feel it is important for a student to actually use the skills he or she is learning in communicating with others. I believe in order to teach effectively a teacher must find out the students' learning styles. All students can learn if their individual needs are focused on.

I have been teaching in the homeschool community for about 10 years. I have learn many skills on how to handle different classroom situations. I tautht cross county, physical education, critical thinking skills, sewing, and all the other core courses. I volunteered in a local private school to assist when they would need me. As of this October I started teaching at a local tutoring center. Currently, I am teaching on a "on call basis" at a local college.
My philiosphy is to motivate through praise. I believe in speaking words of encouragement to the students. I have seen positive words manifest into good results for the students. I do believe in teaching because as a mother this is one of the skills I know I had to dominate in order assist my own child to become a better citizen. I realize that what one deposits in this young generation we will reap as senior citizens. The ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I believe in the potential of every child and am committed to their academic achievement. Through my work with children and adults with disabilities, I have learned patience and understanding; qualities that I believe make me a strong educator. I believe in modeling a learning curriculum to meet the specific needs of a child and pride myself on finding novel ways to make education fun and interesting. The best part of education, to me, is the opportunity that lies in every learning experience.
Throughout my educational career, I have gained a strong foundation of knowledge in various disciplines. I hold a BA in Psychology and have also completed pre-medical requirements during my time as an undergraduate. My liberal arts background has led me to develop extensive reading, writing, and analytical skills. These skills are complemented by a solid understanding of mathematics and ... read more

I graduated from Shippensburg University in 2006 with a BS in elementary education and a minor in Reading. During the 2006-2007 school year, I worked as a daily substitute and gained experience in all grade levels. Throughout the 2007-2008 school year, I worked as a long term substitute in a fifth grade classroom. I had the opportunity to teach all subjects to my class. While working at this school, I tutored a small group of students to prepare them for the PSSA (Pennsylvania's state assessment). During the beginning of the 2008 school year, I worked as a Title 1 Tutor. I worked with elementary students who struggled with Reading and/or Math. I then moved from Pennsylvania to Florida in the beginning of 2009. Since then, I have transferred my teaching certificate and been working as a tutor. I have worked at a Tutoring Center since May 2007.

I have always loved working with children and at a young age I decided to go into the educaton field. I believe that children have an inborn desire to learn and it is up to the teacher to feed that desire by creating a learning environment that is rich in materials and activities. I also feel that each c ... read more

My teaching style is relaxed and supportive where every student feels comfortable learning. My students in grade 1 learned vowel sounds and pronunciation phonetically through pictures. My students in grades 4-6 took turns reading with myself to encourage reading abilties. I believe all students can learn given a supportive learning environment.
As a graduate of Albertus Magnus College,I hold a BA degree in Communication cum laude with a concentration in Spanish. I have excellent interpersonal skills in dealing with students and parents. I have an excellent command of the English language and proper grammar usage.
