My teaching style varies, depending on what the individual student needs, but it is always driven by an enthusiasm and verve for education (particularly in science) that I have been told is infectious (not a great thing to say to a biologist, but it's the thought that counts). Learning is most effective when the learner understands the importance of the material to their interests and the world around them. As such, one of my priorities when teaching is finding the relevance of the subject to the student and examining the concepts in the student's context. I tend to shy away from rote memorization, preferring active learning techniques and exercises that develop critical thinking skills, but I am flexible, depending on the student's abilities and response.
I am an evolutionary biologist and paleontologist who has been active in the field for over a decade. I have been a profess ... read more

My comments on tutoring Earth Science : EXPERIENCED TEACHER

Customized to each individual students needs.
I've had several years experience in both teaching and practice in Fundamentals, Med-Surg, OB, Pedi & Psychiatric nursing and am currently teaching at a major universitity. I have a patented, internationally recognized tutoring and test prep program and specialize in all arease of test prep: All nursing courses, NCLEX, HESI, ATI, AND Kaplan. I review every single detail of the content so you can totally understand it. Most of all, though, I have a very successful track record of helping students raise their test scores. My students whom I've tutored for NCLEX and nursing subjects have given me a 5 out of 5 star rating.

Fun Loving, Motivated Elementary-High School Subjects Tutor

I am a junior in college, with a major in child education and a minor in general education. I have been tutoring for about 3 years now, all different age groups and all different subjects. I am highly motivated and determined no matter if the student learns differently or at a slower pace for the child to feel he or she fully understands the material with supportive encouragement and tools to help he or she remember what they have learned or been taught.

My comments on tutoring Earth Science : Taught this to my children

I follow a Socratic method of teaching. Leading the student into discovery by asking them questions, understanding what the student knows/understands and building on that. I am low key, but demand a good grasp on the subject before moving forward with new information.
I have been home schooling my two children for 13 years. My oldest is graduating this year and attending the college of her choice. My youngest is in 9th grade. Through these years of experience, I have discovered the best ways to motivate, to understand a student and to help a student understand themselves and the way they best learn. I have a broad understanding of many subjects as a result of teaching them myself for the past several years.

Dedicated to teach chemistry and believe in hard work!

I have taught with experience of 10 years of teaching chemistry at high school and elementary schools. In addition to chemistry, I have taught mathematics and then my students are successful in their national examinations and then they can join college easily. My unique style of teaching is that i will focus on basic chemical equations and stiochiometric calculations and I pay strong attention whether or not my students have understood the subject matter. Especially when I teach higher grades such as grade 11 and 12 , I will focus on thermodynamics and the electrochemistry topics, because this are unique topics that need much dedication and devotion of time to work and hence the students can grasp easily. When I used to teach for grade 7 and 8 , I focused on fundamental concepts such as periodic table , molecular formula, chemical symbols and other basic consepts so that the students ca ... read more

I am a biotech business owner who has worked in industry, academics and government. I have a lot of experience mentoring biology students form high school through graduate school. I am an adjunct professor of bioinformatics at George Washington University. My main areas of expertise is are computational and and molecular evolutionary biology.
I think the best way to teach is to immerse myself in the same thinking process that the student must use to solve each specific problem.

My comments on tutoring Earth Science : This is a subject I have worked with only a few students but find it a fascinating subject

Have tutored for five years with Wyzant, Tutoring Center of Herndon and on my own. My main concern is too make sure student is confortable in his/her understanding the subject material. The money part of the education of young people is really not a priority per se unless the individual student gets an understanding and hopefully confidence in taking on the subject at hand I tutor mainly in Math (Algebra, Geometry and Trig, but also Accounting,social studies, Finance, English , Reading Comp, Vocabulary
Laid back but serious as student learning subject matter is the most important factor in yuoring.
