My comments on tutoring Genetics : I have not only taken several courses in genetics (including independent study of the genetics of development), but I have taught a basic genetics course. I have also tutored many students in various areas of genetics.

I have taught at three universities (The University of Michigan, Henry Ford Community College, and Lawrence Technological University) and tutored formally at two (Henry Ford Community College and Georgia Perimeter College). I have also tutored as an independent tutor, giving me a career of 18 years as an educator. I have also maintained a career as a computer software developer, doing contract work in several cities in the United States, as well as Torino, Italy, and Durban, South Africa. In addition to the courses shown in my profile, I have taught various computer programming languages, including C, FORTRAN, C++, PL/I,and COBOL.
As a teacher and tutor, I focus on developing conceptual knowledge (rather than memorization), and structured study methods, problem-solving techniques, and test-taking skills,including post-test analyses of mistakes as a learning tool. I encourage th ... read more

I worked as a Clinical Research Coordinator in Cincinnati for two years while taking courses towards a Masters in Secondary Education in Biology. I have taught students of all ages including freshman in high school and undergraduate college students in genetics. I specialize in anything medical genetics related including molecular genetics, cytogenetics, risk assessment, psychosocial counseling, ethics in medicine, cancer genetics, prenatal genetics, adult onset genetic disorders, and pediatrics (which includes metabolic disorders, cardiovascular genetics, chromosomal conditions, etc.).
I am able to curb my teaching style around the learner's learning style. I have experience in all forms of teaching.

I never disappoint your expectations!

My tutoring style is calm, patient, and encouraging. I have high expectations for my tutoring students. I also strive to discover how a student learns, whether it be seeing it, hearing it, feeling it, or a combination of the three. I am a proponent of hands-on learning, and believe that a tutor’s role is to be a facilitator of a student’s curiosity and achievements. Through implementing a learning plan with attainable goals based on the student’s background and individual learning style, he or she can not only successfully learn the material, but enjoy exploring the depths of the subject matter. I desire that my students have fun with their learning (creativity is key!) by providing them with the tools to achieve success.

Genetics is one of my top subjects! Expert in Molecular biology, cytogenetics, Recombinant DNA technology and Biotechnology

Teaching one to one following the black board method supported by power point slides to make summaries easy. Each class begins with a lesson plan and proceeds checking each heading covered and ends with summary of that day's topic. Teaching is my passion.
I have vast teaching experience in all basic branches of Botany and in specialized ares of Molecular biology, cytogenetics, recombinant DNA technology, biotechnology, bioinformatics, microbial ecology and algology. I taught all these subjects at post graduate level and guided students for their academic projects, M.Phil and ph.D theses. Expert in preparation of study materials as per the need at any level. Clarity of expression, fluency in communication and patience are my assets.

More About This Tutor...

I taught in public school and private. While doing so and during summers, I tutored on my own. I got married in 1986, had three children and stayed out of the classroom for a while. I homeschooled my own children and began an ACCREDITED highschool for home schoolers. I taught and tutored all subjects. I have also worked with several learning disabled children. I can teach/tutor pretty much any subject ages K-college. I have also worked in the Writing Lab at Clayton State College. I feeel very qualified for this job.
I love children of all ages, including Middle School and Highschool. I do not alweats go by the book. I do what I feel is best for that particular child's learning style. I teach outside the box and encourage learning rather than straight memorization. I help children love learning.

More About This Tutor...

I find that most students just don't know how to study Biology. I like to assess the students' familiarity and background with the subject and then discuss study options. Some people resond to flash cards, others to practice tests, and still more to oral quizzing. Maybe it needas to be a combination, but we work until we find a system that works. Then we tackle the subject material.
As an undergraduate, I was selected to be a tutor in the on-campus tutoring center, where I tutored students in all the sciences. This was where I discovered my talent and passion for tutoring and teaching. After college, I worked part-time as a para-professional tutor for a local junior college. Once I married and started a family, I used my MS in Biology to its full advantage by working part-time as an adjunct professor in Biology for local colleges.

At the beginning of my junior high year, I began to seriously wonder what I would do as an adult. My tenth grade year gave me the answer. I instantly loved Biology and because of a generous and wonderful teacher who was patient and explained all the things I could do in the Biology field, I knew this was my nitch. I went on the graduate with a degree in Biology, and minor in Chemistry, a Master's degree in Biology, and am currently working towards my Ph.D in Pathology and Immunology. I have done extensive research in Biology and have 10 years experience in Chemical laboratories. I am also very strong with computers and writing skills.
I believe the keys to teaching and tutoring are patience and encouragement. Everyone has their strong areas and their weak areas. However, I do believe that each student can get through any subject with the right methods. I believe that if one method ... read more

As a trained research scientist I consider myself a liaison between the scientific genre and the student. My experience performing research as well as assisting with college courses such as an Introduction to Laboratory Techniques and Cell Biology provides me the ability to engage students in a hands-on, inquiry-based learning environment. Science and Math are the most difficult subjects and extra attention should be given when teaching these subjects. My creative and innovative teaching methods give students the opportunity to not only learn the various topics, but actually truly comprehend the idea and how it relates to the world.
I have been involved with tutoring at a very young age. I remember being in elementary school reading to the younger children that could not read. I am an advocate of every child receiving a fair chance at success in education. I have earned a Bac ... read more

With enthusiasm and a caring attitude I help students to engage in learning. I hope to see students' sense of confindece grow by encouraging them to achieve small goals, practice, and tackle progressively larger challenges. By providing models for good note-taking skills, organization of concepts, and tools to solve word problems, I help students learn skills that will help them in any circumstance. As a tutor, I can give individual attention as a student solves a problem. It helps a student to trust their style, ask a question in the moment, and learn to see new ways of problem solving. Some students learn by structure and repetition. Some students prefer discussing relevance to everyday life. I listen to the student and work with their learning style be it visual, auditory, or kinestetic. With an appropriate balance of encouragement and challenge, I help students to reach excellen ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a Georgia State University Graduate of 2008. I got my masters of science from there and am now looking to disperse my knowledge to others. I excel in biology and other science related fields. I have most recently taught labs for Georgia State University in the field of microbiology.
My teaching style is very goal oriented. I do love to teach and am very patient on teach subject matter. I don't believe in pushing through subject matter when a student does not have the basic knowledge needed for success in the future. I am passionate about my ability to teach others and take the fact very seriously that what I am teaching today will brighten the lives of many in the future.
