Life Science Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Hadlyme, CT

I hold a Ph.D in a Life Science discipline. I believe that stimulating conversation and allowing people to arrive at answers on their own and through experience is the best way to form lasting connections. I took a variety of Biology classes and Labs at WPI mostly focused on Cell Biology and Molecular Genetics. I recently finished my PH.D. where I studied control of viral gene expression. This work encompassed a variety of biological disciplines including virology, cell biology, molecular biology, biochemistry, and molecular genetics, all of which I am quite experienced in. I also have experience teaching in a seminar format as well as in small groups. As a senior graduate student I was responsible for leading discussions prior to invited speaker seminars.

I have tutored high school students who are college bound during my undergraduate years at William Paterson University of New Jersey. I also tutored my fellow undergraduates. I then pursued a doctorate and was active in many peer study groups where were tutored each other in neuroscience and organic chemistry. I have a love for science which shows through my enthusiasm in imparting scientific knowledge to others. My style is dependent on the student. While the end result is having a student understand the material, the way of achieving this varies with each person. Some students require a lot of hand holding while some require a more hands off approach. To achieve understanding I will cater to the students needs.

My teaching style is relaxed, but focused. I believe all children can be natural learners, especially when they find something that interests them. Patience is the key with children. Every child has their own pace and learning style. Some are very visual learners while others need to be able to be more hands-on. It is very rewarding helping someone succeed. I am a former UConn graduate (1984) with a BS in Marketing. Many of my electives were in mathematics, enabling me to work as a student tutor on campus. I have also completed coursework in anatomy and physiology. In addition to tutoring college level students I have worked with elementary and middle school children in church youth groups, assisting with bible verse memorization and reading skills,as well as staging music productions. My experience also includes homeschooling my own children and assisting in classrooms.

My academic accomplishment in science and my desire to fight difficult diseases led me to select a career path in research for developing new and improved medicinal agents. My research profession has certainly helped me to stay up to date in my subject area and has taught me the value of collaborative and interdisciplinary team work. Thus, in my class room, I will bring the flavor of the most up to date affairs of science so my students can relate science to their day-to day life experience and feel inspired. I strongly believe, with my qualification and motivation, I will be able to establish an example that would encourage others like me to join the team to help bring our students back on their glorious leading track.
