My comments on tutoring Life Science : I have taught Kindergarten, 2nd Grade, 3rd Grade, and 5th Grade. I am certified K-6th grade. I also taught advanced and Intermediate math and language arts in a GED/HiSet program. I currently teach ESOL/CIVICS for an Adult School.

My teaching philosophy starts out with essentialism which believes in a strong core curriculum and high academic standards. I believe it is important to have a strong foundation on which to build upon. After ensuring a strong foundation I tend to lean more towards progressivism. I believe students should be taught what is relevant today while becoming more independent learners, by utilizing problem solving skills and critical thinking. I teach the foundation and build upon that based upon what is relevant in a particular field today. I also include student-centered teaching strategies. I believe in order to learn a student must have base knowledge of a subject that leads into hands on assignments which require mastery of a subject. Students must have both of these in order to truly master what they are learning. I also believe that team based learning is essential today. It is i ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I like to be interactive- when I'm teaching I prefer to work through a problem with a student together the first time, letting the student more or less watch me. The second time through, we approach the problem with a little more weight placed on the student. The third time I ask the student to attempt the problem on his/her own, and I'm available for questions.
I have tutored classmates and friends throughout college and after in science and math disciplines. My younger sister struggled in school and I assisted her with all disciplines from grades K-12. I studied Chemical Engineering at West Virginia University and got my degree in four years. Classes I took included four semesters of calculus, including multivariable and differential equations, two semesters of physics, inorganic and organic chemistry, and several chemical engineering specific classes. I feel comfortable with mo ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As the second oldest of six kids I have a lot of at-home experience in tutoring. With a BA in Biology I feel very equipped to teach children in sciences. I have taken Anatomy, Physiology, Genetics, Biology, Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physics and every other major science. I intend on taking one year off before attending medical school. If your child needs help in any basic math or any level of science then I'd love to see if I could be a good tutoring fit for him/her. God bless!

For the past four years, I have taught first grade students who are struggling with reading, utilizing the Reading Recovery framework. Working one-on-one with each student, I am able to observe their reading behaviors and plan lessons to address reading and writing confusions. During this same time period, I have worked in the Early Intervention Program with first, third, and fourth grade students. This program enables students who are not on grade level to receive small group instruction in the areas of reading and math. I have also been a classroom teacher for third and fifth grade students, as well as a computer teacher for students in grades PreK-6.
All students can learn. It is important for the teacher to begin with what the student knows and build on his/her strengths to accelerate learning. Acute observation and data collected through assessments should be used by the ... read more

I have been involved with elementary students through the Hamilton County Schools System where I have substituted with long term substitution positions for grade levels K and 5th Grades. Through these positions, I have been involved in the balance literacy program where I worked with children in guiding reading formats/small groups to teach literacy. I have been involved for the last two years with these programs. I have also involved in TCAP testing and dibels assessments.
I love teaching children. I left working in a commerical insurance job to pursue my passion to work with students. I love to see children glow when they finally get a concept. You can see the light go off when they understand. This is exciting to me as well as the students. I see students, who have given up hope to learn, and become a behaviorial problem because of their inablitilites to read; which is fundam ... read more

During the past two years, I have taught Medical Terminology at the college level. Previously, I wrote and presented workshops for early childhood education teachers. Not only did this allow me to teach, it required me to continue my education in all academic areas. With a bachelor degree in Human Services Management and an associate degree in Medical Technology, I have gained much experience in Math, Science, Management and Public Speaking.
My goal is to help each child reach his or her potential. The best way to do this, is to first identify the child's learning style. When this is defined, projects should be tailored to fit that style. I prefer to use a hands-on approach to any subject and present each idea being studied in numerous ways.

A Little Bit About Me...

While everyone has a passion in life, my passion is to teach and to help shape a child’s academic future. One of the best ways to have an impact on a child’s life is through tutoring. My favorite aspect of tutoring is the opportunity to work one on one with a child and learn his or her individual learning style. Some of my teaching attributes are a good listener, easy going, patient, and most importantly an inspiring teacher. Every child has the ability to learn any subject; they just need the tools and the encouragement in order to do so.
Throughout my entire life, I have always been driven to do the best of my ability. This is especially the case when it comes to academics. While I was a college student, I learned the importance of teaching other colleagues the skill and technique to master a course. At college, I earned a BS in Biology with a concentration in Chemistry, giving ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Teaching has been a passion for me since I was in middle school. I was blessed with good teachers who could very well explain me the basic concepts of science. It was here that I realized how important it was to have a good tutor, those who could captivate your interest. There have been times when I helped friends and class mates with Physics, chemistry, geography and biology during middle and high schools. I believe learning is accomplished when students are able to visualize what they are taught and when they start questioning all the whys and whats. A good teacher is very patient with her students and will always make sure that her students understand everything. A teacher with never ending enthusiasm.
I have earned two masters degrees, Ms in environmental Science and MS in Environmental biology. my course was interdisciplinary to much an extent during my bachelors and has thus ... read more
