Biology Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Livermore, CO

I prefer working one-on-one or in small groups with students. I am patient and caring, and these qualities are especially brought out when I am working with children and young adults. I recently graduated from Allegheny College in Meadville, Pennsylvania. During my four years there I became involved in various activities and volunteer opportunities working with children. I was a reading tutor for America Reads, a volunteer in a Head Start program, and completed numerous community art projects, including murals, with local children.

Took in high school. I believe in success. There is no guarantee someone will learn on the first try. It's all about enjoying the learning experience and positive reinforcement. I also believe in humor and think that it can help a lot in peoples difficult situations. I have helped tutor AVID high school students when I was a senior at Cherry Creek High School. I enjoy helping the kids learn and believe that being a tutor would pay it forward since I had so much help from tutors. I always helped my friends out because I was in higher level classes than them some of the times. I also worked with tutors and know how much of a difference they can make. I'm currently studying at CSU and still work with friends on homework if they need help.

Would prefer to work on individual basis to determine strengths and weaknesses. Will provide better explanation of most concepts. I've studied both engineering and biochemistry in pursuing my degree (biochemistry). My experience and knowledge in chemistry, organic chemistry, biochemistry, and molecular genetics was adequate enough for A's in all of these classes. I am experienced in tutoring friends in these subjects and will provide clear and generalized descriptions to every topic for better comprehension.

I am new to tutoring, but not to teaching. In college, whether I was studying differential equations or the intricacies of cellular processes, I took the time to support my classmates and explain difficult concepts. When I was called to service, I spent four years in the Air Force, lecturing, mentoring, and teaching my fellow servicemembers, breaking down highly technical information and helping them succeed. While I find Math and Science fields fascinating, I love the English language and I'm looking forward to helping students improve their writing skills as well. My goal is to help my students truly understand the material and how it connects to both other fields of study and their own life. This comprehensive approach reduces test-taking anxiety and improves confidence, giving the student the tools he or she needs to move forward in their education. I tend to ask the student que

I utilize several different teaching strategies and attempt to pull strengths from the youth and work with positives. I give examples and direct youth in the direction of the correct answers. I utilize reading and instructing out loud to the class, writing on the board for further and clearer instructions and information, using real life ideas and situations to help explain the lesson (ex. of using microwave and cooking to help explain temperature and gave reminders at the end of class for work completion, assignments and expectations. I am firm with some basic expectations and allow for some freedoms that seem to benefit the flow of the class and avoid power struggles and the potential for additional problems. For the last 3 years I have been working as a special education teacher at a non-proft treatment facility. I enjoy working with children. I conduct myself in a very positive mann

I feel very fortunate having had the opportunity to educate myself without any regard on obstacles that so many other children may face. Therefore I also feel obligated to share my knowledge with those who might be interested or in need of a hand. Learning is very individual; tutoring should follow the learning style that best suites the student. Yet the bottom line, I believe, is understanding the concept, creation of so called "ahaa"-moment when all the pieces fall in place. I emphasize repetition for memory building, discussion sessions to estimate the degree of understanding, and finally an independent piece of work to demonstrate the depth of understanding, as well as to build up the student's self esteem. I received my education K through high school in Finland, and continued with university- and graduate-level studies in Sweden. The emphasis was on life sciences with molecular ne

Tutoring is fundamentally different than lecturing because one interacts with one students. Therefore a tutor must adopt a style that most effectively communicates with the student. It is important to understand why the student is having difficulty mastering the subject. Most often I use an interlocution with the student. Ask a lot of challenging questions at the student’s level of understanding. Be sure not to let them frustrate themselves trying to find an answer. Manage time well. Finally provide an answer in several different perspectives. I impress every student that they must come willing to learn and work and to try to have a little fun.

As a teacher’s assistant for photography in high school, I realized that I had a natural aptitude for teaching and breaking subjects down into manageable parts. In college, I was the person that other students came to for guidance with difficult topics, from mathematical equations to evolutionary theory. Since I earned my BS in wildlife biology, I have taught in many capacities, including as a substitute teacher and as a trainer for new employees. I have taught discouraged children to read and fostered latent talents. As a tutor for the Interfaith Refugee Ministry, I worked with children and adults from all over the world, including a woman from Zimbabwe who was studying to earn her GED, but struggled just to create a complete sentence in English. After meeting with her for a few short months she had become a capable essayist and passed the test on her first attempt. My teaching sty

I am a Colorado State University graduate with my major in Natural Sciences as well as a completed Initial Teacher License. I have not only an extensive understanding of science but I also know how to specifically teach science. I greatly enjoy helping others learn and I had a tutoring position last spring at a local high school (Fossil Ridge). I love to work with children and adults. I feel that the best way for my students learn is for them to get hands on experience whether that be guided problem solving or actual lab work. I think that through this way my students reach their greatest potential.

I possess both a B.S. degree in zoology/ biology and a M.S. degree in environmental health. I have a secondary science professional teaching license. I am adept at teaching science and math topics and I have had successful teaching experiences within all academic areas. One of my greatest strengths as a teacher is my ability to discern whether or not a student has understood a concept. I recognize that students learn through different methods and I know how to present complex information in a variety of ways so that a student grasps the topic. In some ways, tutoring is teaching at its purest because the teacher and the student can be focused on the material in such a way as to maximize the student’s potential and success. I have come to recognize that being a teacher is both my vocation and my avocation through which I contribute to society. One of my greatest strengths as a teach

I believe the most effective way to learn is through self discovery of the concepts. This should be done in a very positive environment in which the student is encouraged and motivated to fully understand the material. I don't believe in memorization, but understanding. I have always loved helping others. In college I tutored 2 seperate high school students in chemistry and one in algebra, for a total of about 2 yrs experience. In college I also participated in "Students teaching AIDS to Students". I volunteered at a preschool in Costa Rica where I taught sanitation and health. I have traveled to Africa multiple times to volunteer and conduct research. I am very experienced in the fields of science and math and love passing this knowledge on to others. I plan on using my PhD to educate students in Africa about health and science

My teaching style varies depending on the problem material and the student involved. I believe it is important to show the student how they can solve their problem, not for me to solve it for them. This often involves backing up to make sure that they have the basics firmly understood before trying to conquer more advanced principles. I also believe that students learn better if shown how the problem realtes to real life rather than just theory. With twenty years of accounting experience in a variety of industries, I have hands on experience to help students understand the realities of accounting along with the theory. I have taught at Aims Community College for one semester, and two sessions at IBMC. I have also mentored staff in most of my position; encouraging their growth and success, even when it meant losing a good employee to go back to school. While in school I also did sig
