My comments on tutoring Organic Chemistry : B.S. in Science (Life Science Option) from Penn State University, graduating with Distinction; Extensive education in Anatomy, Physiology, Biology, and Chemistry; Tutor for Penn State University in Biology, Anatomy, Physiology, and Math; Currently attending Touro University Nevada - College of Osteopathic Medicine, working toward my Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine.

I enjoy incorporating visual representations of the subject matter as well as using real world examples to solidify the information. As a college graduate and aspiring physician I am also fond of mnemonics as tools helpful tools to store information.
I graduated from Penn State University in the Fall of 2010, earning my B.S. in Science (Life Science Option). My degree very closely related to the typical Biology degree; however, mine afforded me the ability to specifically tailor my upper level courses to focus more heavily on Anatomy, Physiology, Psychology, and medically related Biology courses. While in college I worked as a tutor for Penn State and I also earned my paramedic certification and have nearly three years experience working in the field as a paramedic, allowing me to bring real world (medical) applications to many of the basic sciences. I moved to Henderson, NV recent ... read more

I have taught for many years both in Kenya and in US. This has afforded me the opportunity to work with students of diverse cultures. I have tutored in mostly in Math and Sciences. I have tutored students for AtoZ tutoring where I assisted in reading comprehension and grammar. I currently work in a project based Charter school in Las Vegas.
Having many years of teching experience, I have always used a child centered approach. I normaly use a teaching style which is specific for a child. I normally take some time to identify the student's learing style and then use it to teach them.Since I work in an interest based charter school, I have valuable experience in assisting students apply themselves in ways they like.

Throughout my career as a student, I have always prided myself on the ability to help others learn. When I was a high school student, I was the one other students would come to with questions, and I always gave an answer with confidence. Then I got to college and began to study Biology. I was so amazed at the broad spectrum of the sciences, that I decided to add a Chemistry component to my college degree. Through Chemistry I could better understand Biology. Then I realized that the whole time, I was increasing my ability to teach and learn, so I added an Education component to my college degree, and that has brought me to the point I am at now.
As an education student, I saw many opportunities in that field. I also saw the diversity of learners, and the need for a diversity in the way education is approached. I began to challenge myself by removing limitations like language, and se ... read more

I get a thrill from experiencing a student achieving the Ah-ha! moment of learning. I employ multiple modalities of teaching, since most students have multiple modalities of learning. My goal is to facilitate my students to become independent learners. I employ Socratic teaching methods. I don't give answers. That's too easy. I have found that students retain learning when they work through the solution. I offer students skills to ask questions about their world.
I am fortunate to have multiple intelligence. Since an early age, I have been motivated to increase my knowledge base and skill levels. My desires have motivated me to earn a double majored BS in agriculture, an applied science, and a MS in biology. I taught laboratory classes while I was a student. I began working as a tutor in 1999. This motivated me to become teacher trained. I am an AVID certified tutor. I have tutore ... read more

I graduated from The Honors College at the University of South Florida with a Bachelor of Science degree in chemical engineering (BSChE). The rigor of the engineering curriculum coupled with strong liberal arts and research experiences of The Honors College has provided me with both the technical skills and knowledge to effectively tutor, engage and inspire students. In addition, I have exercised my grammatical and writing skills as the news editor for the college newspaper during my freshman and sophomore years at Miami Dade College. I have been a student leader, and I place a high premium on a quality education.
It is my philosophy that an effective tutor not only tutors but also inspires. I am patient and very intuitive. If I sense that a student is trying to mask a weakness in a particular area, I will make every effort to reinforce the concept or idea. I make it a point to id ... read more

My approach to tutoring is not simply to regurgitate what the teacher has already said in the classroom. Students need to have tried to solve the problems on their own before I help them to get the most value from their experience with me. It does little good to the student for me to guide them entirely through each problem with out them first trying to figure it out on their own. First, this helps one to develop problem solving skills which is different from knowing the subject matter. Second, it allows me to adjust the problem solving techniques to that particular student.
While in graduate school at the University of Connecticut, I was a teaching assistant for a chemical engineering course on polymers as well as freshman chemistry. Both teaching assignments included: grading homework/test papers and providing office hours for students to visit me and go over problem solving. The ... read more

I usually enjoy teaching.I believe in sharing knowledge especially techniques of making long and cumbersome mathmatical equations simple and short. Making the contents of the things more transparent and understandable- making the logic behind the subject matter more clear and precise. This is my way of tutoring.
After obtained my MA degree,I employed as researcher /Lecturer in Ethiopian Civil Service College.This opportunity gave me the best exposure to develop my skills in data collection and analysis in the practical world. As first joining researcher, I was given several chances to participate in training, seminars and workshops regarding data collection, analysis and reporting. This increased my natural ability in understanding mathmatics.

Excellence in education and curiosity in the natural world, instilled in me since elementary school, has driven me to be an “A” student through my college education. The curriculums in premedical studies, zoology, and biological sciences, provided me the knowledge to comfortably teach and discuss math and science to all levels of pre-secondary students, while working as a temporary/substitute science/math teacher, and to college undergraduate students, during assignment as a graduate teaching assistant. A summer job as an instructor of nutrition, introduced me to teaching older adults. Tenure as a Chemist for 30 years permitted me to train and mentor new employees, coworkers, and student interns.
I enjoy sharing my knowledge with others, especially children to whom I provide exposure and enthusiasm of learning and understanding, so that they not only understand what they need to ... read more

As a retired Osteopath I realize the value of education and the problems that we all have in learning,. I have a B.A. in Chemistry and recall some of the problems I had learning some of the principles of the discipline and I would hope that I could help someone understand the problems in learning the subject. It can be difficult. I am a patient person and I have taught medical students when I lived in Ohio from the Ohio University College of Osteopathic Medicine as a clinical professor. I hope I can make learning Chemistry fun and not a bore and difficult like some of my teachers did.
My teaching style is one of non-confrontational teaching. I have had professors who did that, and it only serves to put the student on edge and not lend itself to learning. I prefer to find out what the pupil is having trouble with and then see if I can find an interest in the concept for the student ... read more
