I truly enjoy my teaching profession. The moment when a student who has been struggling for understanding starts to put all the information together and applies it is "priceless". My teaching style always includes getting to know and understand the "learning style" of the student or students. If the initial technique does not work then I will keep trying different methods to present the material until the student and I agree that the subject has been mastered. I have been given a lot of patience and it will take a lot to get me frustrated. I am the type of person that is a problem-solver and I will not give up until the problem has been resolved. In other words; I will not give up on any student. My teaching experience includes almost all of the science disciplines. I have taught classes in Anatomy and Physiology, Physical Science, Physics, Biology, chemistry, Earth Scienc

I was Lead Tutor at Armstrong Atlantic State University (2001-2003) in the Writing Center. I had previously tutored at Greenfield Community College in the Learning Center (1996-1998). My passion is to teach children with special needs (Autism). My BA degree was in Psychology (2008). I have tutored in in English, Psychology, and Biology. I am currently working on my Master's degree in Special Education. I have tutored with private facilities as well, such as Royce Learning Center and Legends Learning Center in Savannah, Ga. I enjoy both public and private facilities. I have patience, knowledge, and empathy for children with many different learning levels. I enjoy working with children with Autism, behavior disorders, and learning disabilities. I use applied behavior analysis and create goals for each child. I am flexible, willing to modify my approach. I want children to feel comfortable

I do enjoy helping students with their problems. I have a technique of visualization. for example, which is the first example I use. I tell the student to think of a tree. in the seconds you think of a tree, you don't think of just the tree. you think of the roots, the trunk, the limbs, the branches, the leaves. then you think of whats going on in the tree, right down to the point of the tree taking in carbon dioxide and giving off oxygen and water. Why is the tree giving off water. most people do not know that the tree is making water because it is attaching hydrogen to the oxygen to get rid of the hydrogen, acid. I can apply this same visualization to almost anything. Hey there. I am a medical school drop out. I have my bachelors in biology, with minors in botany, chemistry and economics. I wandered through many subjects and interest in school. I have tutored fellow students in my und

My description of teaching involves directly explaining the material to the student and then have the student to teach me the subject or concept that was just learned. This insures that the student fully understands the concept, thus the concept can be applied to problem solving. In addition, I like to actually sit down with the student and go over the assigned or completed work to make sure that the student is understanding and applying the material correctly. As a Magna Cum Laude graduate from Claflin University, I have just completed a bachelor's degree in Biology with a minor in Chemistry. I have experience with tutoring my peers in mathematics, biology, and chemistry. In addition, I have served as an English tutor for two years at the Claflin University Writing Center.

I use a combined demonstration and discussion style for lecture and introduction of topics to be studied. Labs are a demonstration followed by a monitored hands-on work experience. I integrate reading and computational skills into my subject matter and use contemporary internet sources to supplement all content items. Practice assignments are designed as reinforcers for the most important skills and topics of the lesson. Homework is for quality, not for quantity. Testing is always followed by analysis and reinforced correctives. Good tests become learning tools. Upon receiving my BA, I began a 26-year journey in high school and college education. My primary teaching duties were in biology, chemistry, and earth sciences. I was appointed department chair for three schools and served as district coordinator for sciences at one of those schools. I have worked to develop science curric

Having worked with students while earning my education degree, I believe that all students learn differently. After determining how students learn, it is easier to design a learning plan for your student. I do believe that total mastery of many science concepts comes from discovery and experiential learning. Hands-on activities and experiments help students internalize knowledge of processes much more quickly than memorization. As a child, my dream was to become a veterinarian. I took accelerated, Honors, and AP science classes throughout High School, and earned my Bachelor's Degree in Biology in only three years. I later decided that my passion for science would be better utilized in the classroom as an educator. I returned to school at Old Dominion University to pursue my MS and subsequent teaching license. Throughout the program, I maintained a 4.0 GPA and sought to master teac

Although I have taught at the college level for the most part, I feel comfortable tutoring younger students and feel that my teaching style can be adjusted so it is applicable to all students. I believe in a one on one teaching approach in which the crowded classroom lecture style can be narrowed down, studied, and rethought to allow for individual approach and understanding in order to allow the student's level of comprehension to dictate the learning pace. I recently graduated from Indiana University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology and Chemistry Minor. During my junior and senior college years, I worked as a Undergraduate Teaching Intern for several undergraduate biology courses. My responsibilities involved leading discussions, holding office hours for individual tutoring, and preparing and grading exams. I also tutored organic chemistry and calculus informally and fo

I am a recent graduate of Alabama State University, where I earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology with a minor in Chemistry. Graduating magna cum laude at the top of my class with a 3.65/4.0 grade point average, I was always sought after for help in those tough curriculum classes like physics, chemistry, genetics and molecular biology. In the spring of 2006 I began formally tutoring general and organic chemistry to college juniors and seniors for the physical science/chemistry professor at my university. In the summer of 2006 I picked up another work study job tutoring college juniors and seniors in Physics. I continued both of these jobs until my graduation in May of 2007. I also voluntarily and independently tutored younger, grade-school aged, children in a host of subjects. I have a very strong understanding of math and writing as well. As an educator, I strive to improve the

I will be graduating from Clemson University with honors a B.S. in Microbiology. I have been an academic mentor in my sorority for the past year and I have also helped many of my classmates in their studies. I have a very good science background and could also assist in writing skills due to writing an extensive amount of lab reports while in school. I believe myself to be a very patient person and am willing to try different teaching styles with different students since students learn in different ways. I am extremely passionate about the sciences and hope to be able to share that with other students.

I am an advocate of self-discovery and prefer to ask questions of my students rather than answer them. I believe that if a student can discover the answer for themselves, rather than being told the answer, they will have a deeper and longer-lasting understanding of the material. I believe each student learns differently and I try to learn what works best for each student and adapt my style accordingly. I also have a passion for teaching effective study skills so that students can continue to learn on their own. I prefer to provide the tools to learn rather than the answers, and in this way leave a lasting impact on my students. The majority of my formal teaching experience has come in the past four years during my graduate career, during which I taught 3 semesters of college-level introductory and cellular biology labs. Additionally, I have worked extensively with incoming graduate
