I'm here to help!

I double-majored in biology in chemistry in undergrad, so the field of science and medicine is my first love and my strength. I have also received a Masters of Public Health Degree in Epidemiology, and have since completed my 2nd year of medical school. I have always had a strong affinity for math and english as well. I have a published thesis paper that was constructed and presented as required for my masters curriculum. I have been tutoring since I was in high school, and have tutored elementary to college level courses.
I have a relaxed, stress-free teaching style, while staying on task and topic. I make sure the pupils really understand the material by breaking things down to the basics, and reviewing the foundations. After reviewing and application of the concepts, I have my students switch roles and "teach" me the material. I believe if you can explain the material to someone ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My approach to tutoring is to first find which specific area is causing each individual problems. Once we work on that area and master the concepts, I will then go back an work with each student to figure out a study strategy that will work for them long term. The goal is for them to be able to be successful on their own in their studies so they no longer need me! I am passionate about the sciences, and enjoy spreading this enthusiasm by making science and math exciting! Real world concepts, simplified explanations or complex material, and patience can make science enjoyable for people of all ages and skill levels!

I love teaching all children and I am very passionate about science. Teachers must become aware of student’s prior knowledge, as well as how to tap into that knowledge and build on it. Students learn in different ways, and therefore instruction should include a mixture of different activities. I believe that all students are capable of learning and have something to contribute. Teachers must strive to make education as enjoyable and beneficial as possible for all students. I believe that most students will learn enthusiastically if they are taught enthusiastically.
During my years at the University of New Haven, I earned a BS in Biology and a MS in secondary education. During my undergraduate work, I worked with other biology students to form a laboratory class for students from a private school which had no laboratory facilities. I possess excellent communication skills both writ ... read more

I have two younger sisters myself, and I am currently coaching the eight year old's softball team. From this experience, I have learned to have patience and creativity when it comes to teaching. I break things down so they become fun and informative.
While at Virginia Tech, I dedicated much of my time to volunteering. Here I fell in love with serving others. During this time, one of the programs I volunteered for was an after-school teaching program. Here, I tutored elementary-aged children in english, science, and math. I enjoy helping others learn!

Over the past five years I have worked as a Teacher/Instructor both the the legal field and in the public school setting with students diagnosed as ED and LD as well as being displaced from the normal public school setting. Even though my academic degrees are in the legal field I have stayed current in areas of Reading and Math from Basic Algebra to Geometry.
I believe that a student who lacks the basic fundamental skills in reading and mathematics will struggle to stay focused in class and continually be disruptive and ultimately stop attending school. My teaching style is consistently accommodating especially to these types of students. I like to show students that I am there for them and there isn't anything through my patience and sincerity they cannot learn.

For the past ten years, I have been teaching High School English. I have taught grades 9-12 in Literature, Composition and Standards of Learning in preparation for the state exams. I have taught inclusion classes involving students with numerous learning styles and have always met and exceeded the expectations of their parents.
I am a very motivating person and tend to use humor as a method of teaching. I teach to and with the child and never down to him/her. I break large components into their simplest forms so that a child learns to take things one step at a time and not feel overwhelmed. I make the learning relevant to what the child is interested in or knows about so that he/she can be more engaged in the learning process. We set the goal-a reasonable one yet with high expectations and together we achieve it.

I am a Masters Degree holder in Bioinformatics and our curriculum encompasses Biochemistry, Biotechnology, Cell Biology, Computer science, Immunology, Mathematics, Molecular Biology & Genetics, Proteomics, Statistics, Sequence Analysis and Structural Biology. In addition to this, my Bachelors Degree Course work also includes many of the above mentioned topics. I taught these subjects to Masters’ students for two and a half years while working as a full time Bioinformatics faculty from January 2006 to June 2008. Besides I have given home tuition in Mathematics and Science to many high school and college students. This academic background along with exposure to premier scientific institutions enabled me to improve my knowledge and skills.

My teaching style consists of incorporating all learning styles of most people in order to achieve the highest level of comprehension in course subjects. I believe that most students gain the best understanding when they are required to use their auditory skills, while visualizing the information, and writing the information for the practice of kinesthetic learning. It is imperative that the learning environment is entertaining yet informative so that the students view the learning process as fun. Any additional learning techniques or styles may be applied to accommodate all children in need.
I have worked for Norfolk City Public Schools and Virginia Beach City Public Schools as a substitute teacher for approximately six years. During that period I performed a multitude of jobs including long term substitute positions, teaching high school physics, and performed tasks far beyond th ... read more

I have the unusual ability to teach in a way that each individual can relate to and on a level that they can each understand. I feel that all people can learn given the right circumstances and a teacher that understands the way that person is able to learn. Learning is a process and I approach teaching in a logical step by step fashion by which my students can relate.
As a Sociology major and an accounting student at Longwood University, I was able to gain an understanding in a variety of areas from classes in business, sociology, anthropology, psychology, english, math and the sciences. I have excelled in writing financial as well as literary reports. I tutored many of my classmates while I was in college and was afforded the opportunity to substitute teach sociology when my professors were out due to illness or personal reasons.

I graduated from Union College in June of 2008 with a BS in Biology. Due to hard work and dedication, I received my BS in three years instead of four. I have been substitute teaching for almost a year for many different grade levels. As of recently, I have been tutoring students in mathematics.
I am a very patient person that believes in sticking with something until the student fully understands it. It may take a variety of techniques, rephrasing or working through examples, but I believe if you are dedicated there is nothing you cannot learn as a student.

I absoultely love teaching children, and I have alot of patience. Every person has their own way of learning, and I strive my hardest to figure out what way that is in each of my students. I am a very visual and hands on learner, but I have the ability to adapt my teaching method. I think it is extremely important to be very possitive and celebrate even the smallest acheivements. Every student can reach their potential if the appropriate approach to teaching is in place.
I am a very patient person. I tutored special needs students in the summer in a variety of subjects. I also taught piano lessons to several students of my own while attending school. While I was in college I was the chemistry lab assistant and lab tutor. I set-up and conducted the labs the teacher had planned, and I helped the students with their homework.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe in using multiple teaching strategies that encompass all the different learning curves. I believe in using many examples such as hands on activities, listening skill development, study skills techniques, think pair share, jig saw method, and the scientific approach. I also highly believe in positive reinforcement. Praising and encouraging a child for job well done, and supporting and scaffolding a child who needs encouragement, giving a child small successes can lead to bigger successes which will make a difference in a students academic life.
As an early childhood educator, I have a passion for the education of young children. I strive for success in creating a love and a desire for learning in every academic environment. I am certified in early childhood education and have seven years teaching experience in both the private and public sectors. I have great ref ... read more
