Experienced Ivy League Engineer & Premedical Tutor & Mentor

As a teacher, I aim to develop out-of-the-box independent thinkers, future professionals and researchers, who have strong sense of real world application of knowledge. My methods include: flexible presentation of the material (audio, visual, kinesthetic), real world examples to ground the material, the Socratic method of questioning to encourage critical thinking, data analysis and organization to encourage ownership of the material, self-aware student learning to develop efficient study skills, as well as career oriented planning to help students develop foresight and maintain a competitive edge. Most importantly, I believe in positive teaching methods to develop confidence with a "can do" attitude.
I am an Ivy-league engineer with experience in pre-medical work. I have been tutoring formally and informally since high school. I have a passion for education and love to share that p ... read more

My main goal as an Educator is to expose students to the most current knowledge in biology while at the same time assisting them in the process of developing critical thinking skills. I like to promote a productive learning environment where students feel comfortable and confident to exchange ideas and eager to apply scientific inquiry in individual and group projects.
I have an extensive teaching career in the field of Biology that includes different educational levels. I am currently teaching Biology courses at college level. As a complement of my experience, and since all my education was gotten in a Spanish-speaking country, I am perfectly fluent in Spanish language. I authored and coauthored scientific publications and books written in Spanish language as well.

A Little Bit About Me...

I use a white board when teach people because I find people get less stressed out when working with a problem if there is less scribbles on the paper. I also have a strong belief that it only takes one good example to understand the problem so I give the people I tutor one really good generic example of the topic and tell them to copy it down and refer to that example often and I find that it helps a lot.
I have a variety of degrees and specialties but math is my strong suite. I have tutored friends with great results. I have helped people in math classes ranging from simple math to statistics and even college level math. I love math and English and I also love working with people of all ages and teaching them to love math as well. I feel that teachers make things more complicated than they need to be and I am great at simplifying explanations for people.

A Little Bit About Me...

Recently I was asked to give a Guest Lecture on Neuroanatomy at Everest College. I wanted to take students on a ride through the nervous system, into subcortical structures, down the spinal cord to synapse onto muscles and organs. I had to cover everything I learned in the past year, in four hours. I was able to compile a set of animations, which played in tandem with my lecture. Rather than simply name structures, I discussed symptoms that would manifest given a lesion to that area, resulting in effortless comprehension by the students. The idea was simple: present the marvels of anatomy in a way that the digital age can embrace—a philosophy, which I will bring into your institution if granted the opportunity.
As a Pre-medical student, studying Neuroscience, I aspire to one day become a neurosurgeon. In my quest, I’ve decided first—to become a surgical technologist. I’ve served as ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy tutoring, and my students consider me as their good friend as I always try to maintain an informal environment and encourage an interactive session. I prefer a visual style of teaching as I believe that only images get imprinted in your memory! I prefer to function as a chaperone assisting the students to think on their own and arriving at a solution to the problem at hand. I think it is a very noble profession as I get a chance to build up an intelligent and well-informed future generation.
Presently, I am assisting college and high school students with their biological sciences and physical/organic chemistry course work in the SF valley. I have been helping students with organic Chemistry, AP Chemistry, Honors Chemistry as well as college Chemistry coursework. Also, I have been assisting students with Honors Biology, College Biology (premed students) coursework. Also, I ... read more

My teaching style is derived mainly from the students. Some students do better with visual aids and others like repetitions. In any case the goal is to make sure they understand the material. And i always make sure that they learned the concept not just the problem.
I graduated CSUN in 2008 with honors. I earned BA in Biology and minor in Chemistry. Throughout my educational career I was actively involved in varies associations and research groups. I was always involved in tutoring for varies reasons, helping a friend, volunteering in the association and more often to finance my education.

I enjoy working with older children especially those in high school. I strongly believe that all students can suceed in the classroom as long as they have a good understanding of the materials being taught. And I make it my mission to make sure my students gain this understanding and will use any measure or teaching tool to ensure this. I am extremely patient and understanding with students and my ultimate goal is to see them suceed.
As a recent college graduate, I have a dedicated work ethic and a high performance level in the classroom which will translate onto the students I work with. I have earned a Bachlor of Arts in Biology from the George Washington University and plan to attend The George Washington University School of Medicine in the future. I have taken many courses in the field of biological sciences, chemistry, and mathematics. My past experience has been in tutoring ... read more
