My main goal is to provide students with tools that will advance them personally and professionally. To achieve this, students need to understand how they learn effectively. As a tutor I will help students determine their learning style(s) and focus my efforts through this style(s). A second component of successful learning is subject relevance. I will find the connection to the bigger picture to help motivate student learning. Lastly, I believe students need to think independently. I will encourage critical and independent thinking by fostering an approach where students have to apply what they have been taught. As such, I believe that answers should not always be readily given so as to challenge students to reach conclusions on their own. From my doctoral training at UCLA I became an expert within the biological sciences, and have been trained to teach complex concepts to people of div

I strive to make connections to real life by using real specimens when possible, familiar situations, manipulatives, current events, and such to facilitate comprehension. I found from tutoring college students having difficulties with complex concepts such as protein synthesis, DNA replication, photosynthesis, and meiosis, that for all students, “hands on” can be a very helpful, and ultimately a more efficacious and expedient, way to teach. It can not only be a welcome and refreshing change/respite from the ‘usual textbook and ditto’ drill, but also helps by illustrating complex processes and concepts in a basic comprehensible manner first; I then add the more difficult material to the ‘firmer’ foundation. In 2009, I was a professional tutor(as opposed to a peer-tutor) for the Biology Department of Ulster County Community College, NY, for students struggling with: Bio 100 for non-scie

I think that it is important to make sure that the student understands the concepts being learned in each subject rather than learning how to do one particular problem. Too often students forget the basics that they learned before because they thought that they were finished only to find that it comes up again in a more advanced subject. My goal is to get students to understand and apply the concepts to different situations other than the ones that are directly in front of them at the moment. I tend to push students to work hard and challenge them to think about the process instead of just giving answers. During High School I taught at a science camp for 3 years. After college I went and lived in China and taught university level ESL for 3 years. I have worked for a few local tutoring organizations in the last 2 years as well as doing private tutoring. I have worked with ages 8-24
