I have mentored and taught the MCAT to hundreds of pre-medical students who have went on to matriculate into medical school. Through my tenure of teaching this test, I have gained the expertise needed to help you master this predictable standardized test. Some of the things I will help you with are: develop a realistic and efficient study plan, help you with MCAT specific test strategies, and guide you through any of the science content that you need help understanding.

I believe in interactive teaching, where the student is as involved as the teacher. My satisfaction comes from watching students discover knowledge that they had previously thought unavailable. Every student can learn, and my purpose and goal is to help each student stretch as far as he or she is willing to go.
I have completed all requirements for a Master of Arts degree in Curriculum and Instruction. I have taught mathematics, computer applications, life skills, and other subjects at high school and community college levels in Colorado. I have tutored and homeschooled statistics, college algebra, trigonometry, and other mathematics topics, and homeschooled a complete spectrum of high school level topics.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate of The Ohio State University I was very driven to assist other individuals whenever I could to complete their education and help them in any way I possibly could.

I have a great understanding of English and a great comprehension for many other subjects, as well. I am very well versed and have excellent verbal and written communication skills which is also a great asset.
I love teaching others and would be a very positive model for those who have a defeatest attitude in the very beginning. It is my motto "a person can be set up for success or be set up for failure". I choose success for myself and others because even the most minimal achievement can mean a great de ... read more

A child perennial question of “Why?” sets in motion the intent of my teaching philosophy, in which I, as the instructor, facilitate the discovery of possibilities to most of their queries. I propose a teaching philosophy in which the student reverts to that infantile state of wanting to know more. Motivating my students to learn is one of my primary goals as an instructor. I cannot simply relay information without a specific sense of purpose because that only perpetuates a student’s aversion for knowledge. By setting in motion a dynamic classroom, we, the teacher and the students, begin a mentorship in which we meet each others’ academic expectations. As a foreign language instructor, I want the student to acquire practical knowledge in the target language, primarily by speaking the language and not about the language. It is also important that my students gain a sense of affec ... read more

I really like working with children from low income families. I think each child has a different interest and way of learning. I try to discover these learning styles before I begin the tutoring process. I try to allow them to be comfortable and having fun during our sessions. Most of the time I do a lot of question/conversation responses to allow them to find the answer for themselves. I like a problem based learning style, even for the youngest of children. I not only want to teach them how to properly concur their learning material but how to find the information they need if they do not know the answer. Additionally, I want them to have fun and enjoy quality time with a supportive mentor and gain an enthusiasm for school.
I have a B.S in Animal Biology. I have had to take extensive science and math courses. Additionally, I have extensive experience working with childre ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I know that I can motivate students to succeed academically. I have always been able to relate to students of all ages. My husband is also a tutor and teacher, and we have helped many students to realize the importance of a good education. We are book collectors and have used our collection to inspire students to love to read. After many years working with the public, I know how to relate to all kinds of people, including those who can be dificult. I am very good in helping students who have negative attitudes about doing their assignments properly and on time. I think students have responded to me so well because they know I care about them. When they do better, it is quite gratifying for both of us.
I am totally dedicated to my career as an educator. My background includes teaching grades 6-12 in public and private schools as well as tutoring high schools students at home a ... read more

I worked at Savanna Oaks Middle School in Verona, WI as an Educational Assistant specializing in Special Education for one year. I created lesson plans and designed educational tools for various students’ needs, helped students with proper social interactions and skills, and tracked students' progress. The following two years, I worked at Verona Area High School. I worked in Independent Study classes and one-on-one with students, such as a self-abusive Down's Syndrome/Autistic 19 year old. Currently, I work at Kanapaha Middle School as an Exceptional Student Education Paraprofessional.

In my doctoral program, I am specializing in working with students with special needs and disabilities. Therefore, I strongly believe that every child can learn, but I realize that different children learn in different ways. I have learned and have experience implementing strategies and techniques to enable children to learn. I am very patient, easy going, and considerate, and my goal is to always provide children with the best education possible.
I first began my love of teaching and tutoring children when I was a senior in high school. As the president of my school's National Honor Society, I began a tutoring program that enabled elementary and middle school students to be tutored by high school students. I continued to volunteer and tutor students while I earned my BS in Human and Organizational Development from Vanderbilt University. I am furthering my interest in education ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My experiences have given me opportunity to teach/tutor students of different ages, ethnicities, and socio-economic statuses. At all levels, however, I have realized that all students are capable of success. The key to being an effective teacher/tutor is finding a way to engage the student so that they are active in the learning process. This will most likely differ from student to student, however knowing the variety of methods to try is an advantage of those with experience. Whether discussions, writing, critical thinking questions, or modeling is used, students will respond differently. Being able to effectively evaluate which process works best for the student is what separates the good teachers from the great teaches.
As a recent Political Science honors graduate, I have a strong background in writing and critical thinking. At Flagler College in St. Augustine, FL I was part of ... read more

Teaching is important to every individual no matter what age. The learning experience is never-ending. Children are very important to me as they are the future. Also if it weren't for my wonderful teachers I would have hated the academic process. It is important to note that no matter how far a student is behind nor how hard it is to recognize concepts I am beyond patient when explaining ideas and concepts. The personal approach is the most formative for an individual. When teaching elementary students it is important to in a stress free quiet environment where a student can be open to asking questions. I would identify specific students needs and formulate a stimulating and constructive approach to ensure their capabilities as students.
Although my undergrad degree is not the most prevailing, I have strong abilities in math. I have tutored many individuals throughout my life. My e ... read more

As a former student and professional athlete, I am a very self-motivated person. From the University of Florida I earned a B.A. in History and a Minor in Education. Last year, I worked in the classroom as a substitute teacher on all three major levels of grade school education. In addition, I have been a supervisor and counselor at various camps which require long hours and spendig individual time with children.
I love teaching and working with children. I believe good communication is what makes life efficient. In my mind, good communication requires a positive, instructive, and detail manner. A better future requires a better education now, and how we pursue it is vital. Education empowers a mind, attitude empowers a lifestyle.

Because I learn best from application and hands-on problem solving, I incorporate games, diagrams, metaphors and stories into my teaching. I am patient, fun, and organized. I enjoy leading an individual to discover not only the answer, but also the method to solve similar problems. I believe study skills and time management are the keys to academic success and strive to help my students develop habits that will carry them through the future.
I will graduate from the University of Florida in April 2010 with a BA in Biology, which required me to take up to Calculus 1 as well as Analytical Chemistry and Physiology classes. I have excelled in courses requiring numerical analysis and have experience teaching and tutoring, both in academics and athletics. Over the past 7 years, I have tutored peers in College Algebra, Trigonometry, Biology, Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry, and have gi ... read more
