My comments on tutoring Elementary Science : If you need someone to develop a Science curriculum, I would love to help you! I believe in hands on projects for Science! My method is great for homeschoolers or even virtual learners or need more excitement in Science.

I have an MBA in Marketing. I have a BA degree in Science Business Communications. I have helped children and adults with their assignments. I work mainly with Kinder through 10th grade. I help with writing, Reading, Touch Typing, Math and Science. I have helped with Marketing papers and other college assignments as needed.
Every student learns differently. I have explored the many ways to teach so that children can learn. From previous teaching experience I am aware that some children are visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learners. I teach based on the individual learning style.

A Little Bit About Me...

I find that talking and reasoning through a problem or situation is the best way to commit information to long term memory. I do this by drawing pictures/maps/diagrams, posing related questions, and drawing on current knowledge to create more connections to what is being studied.
While working on my Bachelor's Degree at A&M I tutored students in various fields such as Immunology, Medical Microbiology, Bacterial Physiology and Genetics, Ancient Greek, and Clarinet. I also have teaching experience from my time as an assistant instructor at a martial arts school where I aided and held classes in Youth and Adult Brazilian JiuJitsu, Karate and Krav Maga.

Vastly experienced, encouraging and patient tutor.

I taught grades kindergarten, first grade and second grade for a total of twenty-six years. Since then, I have tutored pre-k through 5th grade. My last assignment was tutoring a fifth grader in writing composition. I have worked as a tutor with several children on their reading, spelling and math skills. I worked as a UIL coach for creative writers in second grade.
To teach reading, I teach the children to use all the reading strategies used by good readers.Examples of those strategies would be sight words, visual and context clues, and phonics. Then, I prefer to use leveled readers to improve their fluency and comprehension. For writing, after assessing their composition, I work with them to improve where needed skills such as organization, elaboration, complex sentences and transitions. I use hands on materials and lots of practice to teach math.

I have experience tutoring students at an elementary and middle school level in reading, Spanish and science and math. I have earned a Bachelor's degree in Biology with a minor in Nutrition and Spanish. I am currently in graduate school studying integrative medicine. I do have experience with tutoring students with special needs including students with autism.
I like to have organization and structure while tutoring but I also am flexible and can change my approach on how I am helping the student based on his/her body language. If a student is bored and loves sports, after reading I love to go outside and play basketball with them while asking them questions about what we've just learned. Incorporating their interests in learning the subjects is important to me.

A Little Bit About Me...

My goal when working with students is to fully describe the steps necessary to solving various classes of problems, often in an outline form, for it is in learning these steps that a student becomes an independent learner. I like to work through as many examples as the student needs, gradually working them into the problem-solving process, until they are able to work a few completely on their own, or, in some way, demonstrate understanding of the material. Of course, this method is a little easier to employ in one on one tutoring sessions, but even with my work in the classroom, I feel student participation is crucial to the learning environment.
While in college (1988-1994), I worked as a grader in the math department, with a goal of providing useful feedback to the students. I also began working as a tutor at Austin Community College (ACC) in their free learning labs at this ... read more

As a graduate of Southwestern University with a Bachelor in English and Communications, I was drawn to the field of education. I come from a family of teachers.

A Little Bit About Me...

As an undergraduate student at Southwestern University, I received a comprehensive education that can only be obtained at a small liberal arts university. I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and am currently working on my Master of Arts in Counseling. Prior to majoring in psychology, I was an elementary education major. I volunteered with children of all ages in numerous libraries and classrooms throughout high school and college in an effort to gain experience as a future teacher. I was also a mentor and tutor for elementary and middle school students for five years in high school and college. I have tutored students in math, psychology, English, and sciences, and I have given both individual and group viola lessons.
My educational background and volunteer experiences have led me to develop an extremely high respect for and understanding of educational achievement. Every stu ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have been teaching and tutoring students since the 1980's, both in Israel (where I completed my B.A.) and in the United States, first as a graduate student and then as an Assistant Professor of English. My background of studies includes many humanities and social sciences (English Literature, Philosophy, Psychology, Sociology, Political Science, History, English Composition), and I have extensive knowledge of science and math subjects at the high school level. I have worked with students from many backgrounds and cultures.
I am a born teacher, and I love the challenge of bringing students who are less than engaged in the learning process to becoming eager and confident learners. I am patient, though I also believe in setting goals and reaching benchmarks and deadlines. My basic philosophy is that all young people are not only able to learn but also capable of much more than th ... read more

Biology and the life sciences are as interesting to me now as when I was in the fifth grade. My education is in microbiology which I have applied in the agrigricultural industry, diabetes research, and pharmaceutical diagnostics. I have been teaching biology and biotechnology classes for the past seven years in communty college and high school. My best asset as a teacher is finding a way to make the material interesting and relevant to my students.
As a teacher, I strive to motivate students and to encourage their desire to learn so they may ascertain their strengths and abilities. Encouraging and promoting the desire to learn – a natural gift of our childhood – is the keystone to achieving academic excellence, confidence, and creative problem-solving skills. I provide a stimulating learning environment that encourages students to trust their own opinions and foster confidenc ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

From my experience, I have learned that every child has the ability to succeed when given the proper tools and taught at the appropriate skill level. Often in the school system, a child struggles because they are given general class work that is too difficult or above their current level, not because they are unable to learn. I believe that a child must first have a solid foundation and the belief that he/she is capable. I work patiently with my students, employing different approaches to find the best technique for that student in order to build this foundation. I gently challenge students to continually push themselves, while celebrating in the small successes of learning. I fundamentally believe that each child is capable of learning.

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy working with children of all ages, but particularly excel with more mature students trying to tackle more difficult subject matter. One of my greatest strengths is helping people understand abstract, technical material by simplifying the concepts and using analogies that the student can relate to. Often times we create a barrier because something seems like it should be hard. I make it my goal to break through that barrier by reducing the subject matter to ideas to which the student can relate. There is nothing quite like witnessing an “A-ha!” moment as someone conquers a fearful concept.
I have always had an interest in math and science, and I got my start tutoring in high school by helping fellow classmates and friends in these subjects. I went on to earn my BS in Mechanical Engineering from U.T. Austin. I have also spent much of my life in the world of music and be ... read more
