Chemistry Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Middleport, PA

Have TAed General Chemistry for over 8 years I have more than 8 years of tutoring experience in chemistry/basic science at the college level. I can help with methods to study for test, work on course material, and develop a deeper understanding of the course material. I currently work in the chemical industry which helps me apply the material the student is learning to real-life research and development of products. I recieved my PhD in physical chemistry from Penn State University and tutored my entire time there. I try to use real world applications related to the student's area of interest to make the material stick in the student's head rather than the ineffective method of brute memorization.

First we get to know each other. Often I can create examples to illustrate problems based on the student's interests and experience. If you had any trouble on a recent test or homework assignment, we can begin by reviewing any problems you might have had on those. I will show you why the correct answers are right, and why the wrong answers are wrong. I am an excellent listener, and I always find a way to make the lessons fun. I am a former high school math teacher, and a semi-retired Certified Public Accountant and a Certified professional tutor qualified to teach all math and science subjects through the high school, SAT, ACT, and advanced placement levels. I can also tutor college freshman levels in Calculus, Chemistry, Astronomy, and Physics. In addition, I also tutor all college level accounting, economics, taxation, auditing, etc. subjects.

I love teaching and planning every day activities. I had many field placements and I really liked working with children- especially one- on -one. During my field placements, I've had the opportunity to communicate with children and teachers as well. My name is Nicole Koerner and I'm a native speaker of Germany. I was born and raised in Germany. I received a B.A in German Studies/ Communication & Culture from Kutztown University,PA in May 2009. During the past few years,I've been tutoring German to children in High School. Some of my honors include the National Dean's List,Honor's List Who's Who Among American High School Students and I belong to the German National Honor Society. I have experience in the German language, since that is the country where I was born. I am very good in the German language, such as writing essays, research papers and grammatical skills.

I have always had a love of learning that led me to a career in teaching. I have earned two bachelor degrees, a BS in Chemistry (a subject which I have always loved and understood) and a BS in Physics (a subject which gave me great difficulties in high school but a subject which I have come to enjoy). I also have earned an MA in Education that has given me a large number of tools to teach many different types of students. In the past twelve years, I have also spent time as a mentor to inner city middle school students, a tutor at a Sylvan Learning Center, and a tutor for a private children's home. I have always loved learning and in turn, I love sharing my knowledge with others. I believe everyone can be successful in time if he/she is willing to work for his/her success and has a support system in place for encouragement. As a teacher, I practice extreme patience and positive suppo

My fascination for math and science started right before high school level, which drove me to have the Ph.D. degree in chemistry. As an Organic Chemist, I know the subject very well and had gained extensive teaching and research experiences at undergrad and graduate levels. Each student is different and hence my teaching approach is more on student specific. Teaching and learning are two major components of education; I would say it is a mutual effort. An effective teaching can generate interest in students and can make learning fun. It is very important to get feedback from the students about his/her understanding of the subject. I find pleasure to make a difference in all of my student’s life.

I learn visually and like to teach that way. I believe there is a great deal of concepts and memorization in Chemistry. I am not able to memorize all of the subject and would not ask a student to. Instead, explanation and demonstration of the concept, followed by memorization of the rule grants a greater understanding. The rule can then be applied to other areas and is worth much more than a large volume of memorized information. This is possibly more true in the fields of Math and Physics, learning rules and concepts goes a long way. I prefer to patiently explain, draw, or demonstrate the concept at hand then work on problems that further illustrate that concept. I Studied chemistry at the University of Wyoming. During my years there I helped tutor many friends and friends of friends in the subjects of Chemistry, Math and Physics. Also, I worked as a lifeguard and used my skills

As a Mathematics major, I have the drive to solve problems. I have been tutoring for seven years and when I'm not doing it, I miss it. I enjoy helping students 'solve their problems' by teaching them how to approach each problem or equation and reach the end solution. While in College, I was recommended by numerous professors for the tutoring program and was able to continue my tutoring career. Throughout the past seven years, I have tutored Pre-Algebra, Bio-Calculus, Pre-Calculus, and Calculus. Teaching is a difficult task. Everyone learns at a different pace and on their own level. Some students are quick learners and their teacher only needs to go over the lesson once; other students need to hear the subject content in a different form to understand it. Having said that, I can't explain my teaching style as a cut and dry formula. The skill level of each student and the way they proces

Over the twelve years I attended college I acquired six degrees while maintaining high academic standards. I received a Master’s of Science Degree in Forensic Science, a Bachelors of Science in Biochemistry, a Bachelors of Arts in English, an Associates Degree in Liberal Arts, General Studies and Education. I have a strong and eclectic background in a variety of subjects including a strong background math and science. I have the experience of both teaching and tutoring students. As an education major I was required to complete student teaching and creating lesson plans. I taught classes in chemistry, which included topics ranging from basic chemistry concept, biochemistry, and organic chemistry. When teaching or tutoring a student I have found that there are several factors in how it should be approached. The most important of the factors are the subject matter and the students learn

My goal as an educator is to help children learn and reach their full potential. It’s my job to help children achieve excellence through a variety of teaching styles, since everyone learns in different ways. My patience, expertise in chemistry, and variety of teaching methods will provide the best education possible. I am a believer in providing not only the knowledge of chemistry, but also how to apply it in practical ways. By providing a positive learning environment with a good education, each student will be able to achieve success while learning. I strive to not only help students achieve in the classroom, but also to feel positive about learning. After obtaining my Ph.D in August 2010, I accepted a Visiting Professor of Chemistry position at East Stroudsburg University. At East Stroudsburg, I was an instructor for several courses including General Chemistry and General Chemistry La
