Science Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Lannon, WI

I developed my passion for teaching others from a a pre-college program I was in called Upward Bound. I learned study skills, time management and other skills that helped me excel in college. After college graduation,i obtained a tutoring position with the University of Wisconsin-Parkside.I served as a mentor as well guiding them through the difficulties of high school and applying for college and financial aid. My next position was for Admission Possible. Admission Possible is a non profit organization whose main purpose is to get low income students into college. I held after school workshops where I taught them how to apply for scholarships, write high quality essays and how to put together a good resume. I believe the best way for students to learn is by doing and discovering the material hands on as oppose to being lectured to. I like to instruct demonstrate the learning material to

Teaching is an art that requires two things: Passion and Preparation. A teacher, regardless of his/her subject of interest, should be passionate about his/her profession as well as organized and skilled in the art of teaching. I intend to nurture both of these characteristics before I set foot in a classroom for the first time and for all of my remaining years as a teacher. Teaching, in my mind, is about making a difference in the lives of others. My goal as a science teacher is not to make biologists, astronauts, or doctors out of each and every one of my students, or to create them in my image, rather, it is to help them realize their own potential through the learning and modeling that will go on inside and outside my classroom. I hope to nurture the critical, imaginative thinking and working skills that will serve them for the rest of their lives. In my classroom, students will le

If you were to ask my students and co-workers to describe me and my work, you would hear things like: “extremely fast worker, high standards for quality, dependable and always meets deadlines, very easy to work with, eager to help you succeed, a positive, entertaining and enjoyable person to be around.” I am consistently inspired to learn new skills related to creativity. The breath of my skill set makes me a valuable tutor as I can perform many different duties. I would be grateful for the opportunity to speak with you further about the ways that I could create valuable learning experiences for this position and your child. As a newly retired educator, I am looking to continue sharing my love of learning with students in a small group setting. With many years of tutoring experience within the homes of students, I am an ideal candidate for this position. My name is Faith Goldberg and I

I believe my patience and creativity allows children to feel comfortable with their own learning needs. I work with them and help them find their unique learning style. We then build on that style to build their confidence and ability. All children can learn once we find their unique learning "channel". I have been a Special Education Teacher for 15 years and an administrator for 5 years. I have taught at both the elementary, intermediate and high school levels. I have worked with students who have been severely cognitively disabled and those that have had multiple attention and behavioral concerns. I am very patient and have been able to create systems to provide structure to keep kids on track. I always want children to know what to expect and have a structure in which to be successful.

I believe a good teacher will be able to convey the information in way best-suited to the student. A teacher can be extremely knowledgable, but the student must be enabled to learn through motivation and having the material accessible/understandable. I want to make sure the student is on the same page as me, and understands concepts/approaches to learning rather than just memorizing the material. During my research-based M.Sc. study in Microbiology, I TA'ed three undergraduate courses (General Biology & Introduction to Microbiology). Over the years, I have become more aware of myself so that I can learn more efficiently. I scored well on my ACT (33) and my GRE (the grad school equivalent of the SAT - 690 for verbal, 740 for quantitative), and was able to attend well-regarded schools for my scientific training. I have many people to thank for my writing and analytical abilities, especiall

I enjoy sharing my knowledge and experience with the young and old alike. It is my belief that learning is a life experience that never ends. Every day, we all learn something new from our parents, teachers, neighbors, friends, co-workers and even sometimes strangers. I consider myself a patient and understanding person who is easy to communicate with. Students possess various levels of comprehension, attention span and learning methods. While some may prefer examples and analogies others maybe resort to memorization and relating to experiences. Being fully aware of this, I am able to adapt to each and every student's individual learning style and accommodate them in whatever aspect necessary. I hold a B.Sc. degree in Electrical Engineering and a Minor in Business Administration. Upon completion of my college education in the USA, I returned to Sri Lanka to manage my family business

As an undergrad student at the University of Wisconsin, I worked as a writing assistant in the Academic Resource Center assisting students with reading, writing and grammar. I have home schooled my two children for over 10 years using an original curriculum as well as purchased curricula. In addition, I have volunteered for the past three years at the local public library, tutoring writing, reading and math to adults. I have thus worked with children and adults of all ages and skill levels. Knowledge is not something to be horded. I think we each have a responsibility to share what we know. I love to help people understand. I prefer to teach by lecturing,but I realize that individuals learn subjects individual ways, and thus as a tutor my task is to be clear and patient. From working with different people at different levels, I also know that to be successful I have to be flexible and

Free and unconstrained autobiographical writing is one of the best ways to coax a student insecure about his or her writing skills into putting into words intense experiences from their own life. I tell my students to just tell me in their own words what they are trying to say. When they speak aloud, the words flow, and then I say, "There is your opening sentence right there. Quick! Write it down." At other times, I ask them to pretend that they are really someone else, an actor in a television show, for example, and I have them imagine that the character, not they themselves, are speaking. This releases the student to let go of inhibitions and let the film roll "for the character" and then they stop focusing on themselves. As a lifelong lover of literature and writing, I have taught students from fifth grade through junior level college literature and writing courses. My MA and PhD degr

I graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay in May 2004, and then I taught long-term for a 5th grade teacher, and then taught 5th grade from 2005-2007 in Hartland. The past two years I substitute taught in grades K-12 in Waukesha, Muskego-Norway, Elmbrook, and Franklin school districts. I teach summer school Monday-Thursday in Merton from 8 to noon. I also tutored students one-on-one in math and reading skills. I am a very student-centered teacher. I get to know my students goals and dreams and aim to help them meet and exceed them. I love to learn and want students to develop their strengths, so they can have successful lives.

I find that demonstration though example is the first step to understanding. This allows for an initial exposure to the material and plants seeds of knowledge. Adjuvant to demonstration, motivation and enthusiasm to learn the material must be taught. All the homework in the world cannot replace this! Regrettably, students often struggle due to poor instruction or vague textbooks which erode a student’s motivation. Fortunately this can be overcome with a little outside assistance. My long term goal of teaching is to foster a mature understanding of the subject matter. To master a subject it must be learned from multiple angles before the bigger picture is illuminated. Once a subject is illuminated it must be continually revisited for long-term retention. To me education is a way of life. My academic career has been driven by a thirst for knowledge.

For someone who had difficulties learning growing up, I find that good work and determination just does not always cut it. At the heart of the matter it is the day to day interactions of the people in your life that sparks the sense of success one only feels if they have experience failure themselves. I think creating a positive and constructive environment under which one can be given the tools necessary for success along with someone who is more than just a mentor and teacher, but who can truly inspire, will develop ones learning capabilities. As a Chemist I have had many exposures to the wonders of science and social interaction. From working in production to doing analytical instrumentation, which as enabled me not only to develop my analytical skills, but my people skills as well. I have moved from just someone with a BS in Chemistry and Mathematics to someone developing and molding

I have found the best way to learn material is to relate it to real life. Material that is abstract doesn't last long and is poorly retained. Organic chemistry is my specialty but I can teach general chemistry also. Patience is also a virtue! I have 12 years of experience in the Chemistry world and currently work for an international chemical company here in Milwaukee. I am looking to get back into teaching/tutoring. I have my PhD from Northwestern (Nanotechnology / Organic chemistry), Masters from UCLA, and Bachelors Degree from Mercer University in Macon, GA. I have tutored students at all the schools I have attended and have won many awards. I have a full CV if required.
