Professional Biology Tutor/Teacher

My teaching philosophy has developed based, in part, on my experiences as an undergraduate Biology student. I routinely incorporate current scientific topics in my lectures. For example, I discuss the scientific and ethical dilemmas of stem cell research when I lecture about the development of different types of blood cells. I sometimes have students study figures and graphs and analyze what is happening in them. Essay questions are a great way to encourage students to enhance communication skills. I am a strong advocate of writing across the curriculum, and regardless of the type of course, student papers should be graded on quality of writing as well as content.
My teaching experience began when I entered graduate school, wherein during my first year, I began to tutor both undergraduate level chemistry and biology. Additionally, I have taught undergraduate Medical Terminology a ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a current undergraduate chemistry and honors student at Arcadia University, I was recommended to become a tutor from several of my teachers my first year in college. I became a certified CRLA tutor and started tutoring my sophomore year of college; I've been tutoring ever since. I tutor chemistry, biology, math (beginner algebra, statistics, calculus I and II), and calculus based physics.
I love working with students and teaching them something new. The best feeling is when someone understands a concept that they didn't before; when something "clicks" for a student, I feel as if my job as a tutor was done. I'm a very determined, persistent, caring, and patient person; all of these characteristics have helped me become a great tutor.

More About This Tutor...

I have always believed that the greatest mistake a student of science can make is to memorize the material; there is simply too much material to memorize. I tutor the way I learn: to work to make real connections between topics and avoid brute force meorization. The key to me is engage the student and attempt to make them like the material they are learning. I realize how competitive and difficult science coursework can be and I always look to help the student feel confident.
As a student at Rutgers, I have been helping others with science related coursework for many years. As a senior, I decided to officially begin tutoring. I created a website called Premedtutors.com, and worked in the Rutgers Learning Center as a tutor in Biology, Inorganic Chemistry, Organic Chemistry and Physics. I will be attending Drexel University College of Medicine this August. As a student who has ... read more

My approach to tutoring is to first make the student feel comfortable and to realize that they are not "stupid" or inferior because they need help. Then I find out specifically where they are having difficulties and concentrate on that area. If they still are having difficulties in that area, I will move on to the next topic so that they don't get frustrated. Once they have obtained some level of confidence, I will revisit the area where they were having difficulties. I believe in positive feedback, so I will motivate my students through encouraging words and praise, without being patronizing.
I earned my MA degree in Biology from Villanova University in December 1997. For the next two years I earned my living by tutoring students in biology and math as a side business until I landed a research position at Princeton University in 1999. Since then I have been doing laboratory ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

While my more formal degrees may be in the visual arts field, it is in the last year that I found my niche. Altho I had been a T.A. in graduate school, I truly found my niche while working as a tutor in the Science Resource Center at the County College of Morris, where I helped students excel in General Chemistry, General Physics, Cell Biology, Microbiology and Organic Chemistry. My T.A. experience, which only lasted for a year, involved teaching lab sections for a media class, as well as grading paper for the lecture component. In addition, I have completed a masters' thesis and written many laboratory reports, allowing my knowledge to broaden and be passed to others.
Teaching was not something that I sought out to do, but that happened due to paths that I took in life. My first experience came as a graduate student, where I was a TA for an undergraduate level intro media class, w ... read more

I enjoy teaching children of all grades, because I put myself in their shoes. I remembered when I was in High School I always seeking help in my weak subjects, and I still do seek help because I am still learning. It is very important to help these students so they can be encouraged, and see themselves not as a failure but as a winner who seeks help and want to reach for the highest stars. I see it as a blessing to be able to help those students in their weak subject, that way I could be part of their success, the same way someone is part of mine.
During my year earning the bachelor degree in Biochemistry, I have joined the national chemistry club which enables the students to meet other chemists throughout the United States, and also to learn more about elements in the environment.

I have a strong conviction that each student can learn. The teacher’s job is to find the right medium of communicating with the student. For Example, my own daughter is very abstract and logical. She likes to read and memorize. My son is very hands-on. He like to touch, sees and talks about the things. Each has to be taught in different way. And foremost, I teach because love to see students learn and succeed in there chosen endeavors
I have studied in some of the top Science institutions in US and abroad. I also finished my teaching certification for high School Biological sciences. I have very good grasp of Chemistry as well. I have been worked and volunteered in High School and Foreign language teaching. Currently, I am teaching microbiology to nursing students.
