I graduate from UNLV with a degree in Biology-Ecology. I took classes up to Calculus II, Biochemistry II, Organic Chemistry II, Microbiology and Physics II for example. I have been teaching Spanish at elementary schools for the past 6 years. Classes are an hour, before and after school. There are usually between 15-30 students in each class. I have also tutored at Landero Learning Center for 3 years. I tutor elementary and middle school students in Science, Math, Social Studies and Spanish. I also go to an 8th grade student's home for private tutoring classes, 2 hours a day.

My comments on tutoring Organic Chemistry : B.S. in Science (Life Science Option) from Penn State University, graduating with Distinction; Extensive education in Anatomy, Physiology, Biology, and Chemistry; Tutor for Penn State University in Biology, Anatomy, Physiology, and Math; Currently attending Touro University Nevada - College of Osteopathic Medicine, working toward my Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine.

I enjoy incorporating visual representations of the subject matter as well as using real world examples to solidify the information. As a college graduate and aspiring physician I am also fond of mnemonics as tools helpful tools to store information.
I graduated from Penn State University in the Fall of 2010, earning my B.S. in Science (Life Science Option). My degree very closely related to the typical Biology degree; however, mine afforded me the ability to specifically tailor my upper level courses to focus more heavily on Anatomy, Physiology, Psychology, and medically related Biology courses. While in college I worked as a tutor for Penn State and I also earned my paramedic certification and have nearly three years experience working in the field as a paramedic, allowing me to bring real world (medical) applications to many of the basic sciences. I moved to Henderson, NV recent ... read more

Having many years of teching experience, I have always used a child centered approach. I normaly use a teaching style which is specific for a child. I normally take some time to identify the student's learing style and then use it to teach them.Since I work in an interest based charter school, I have valuable experience in assisting students apply themselves in ways they like.
I have taught for many years both in Kenya and in US. This has afforded me the opportunity to work with students of diverse cultures. I have tutored in mostly in Math and Sciences. I have tutored students for AtoZ tutoring where I assisted in reading comprehension and grammar. I currently work in a project based Charter school in Las Vegas.

A Little Bit About Me...

As an education student, I saw many opportunities in that field. I also saw the diversity of learners, and the need for a diversity in the way education is approached. I began to challenge myself by removing limitations like language, and searching for alternative techniques to teaching students of different cultural, socioeconomic, religious and behavioral backgrounds. Through my efforts, I found that to teach is to learn twice over, and that teaching can be beneficial for the student as well as the educator. I fell in love with education, and will never look back!
Throughout my career as a student, I have always prided myself on the ability to help others learn. When I was a high school student, I was the one other students would come to with questions, and I always gave an answer with confidence. Then I got to college and began to study Biology. I was so amazed at the broad spec ... read more

I get a thrill from experiencing a student achieving the Ah-ha! moment of learning. I employ multiple modalities of teaching, since most students have multiple modalities of learning. My goal is to facilitate my students to become independent learners. I employ Socratic teaching methods. I don't give answers. That's too easy. I have found that students retain learning when they work through the solution. I offer students skills to ask questions about their world.
I am fortunate to have multiple intelligence. Since an early age, I have been motivated to increase my knowledge base and skill levels. My desires have motivated me to earn a double majored BS in agriculture, an applied science, and a MS in biology. I taught laboratory classes while I was a student. I began working as a tutor in 1999. This motivated me to become teacher trained. I am an AVID certified tutor. I have tutore ... read more

I love tutoring teens. I have been an independent tutor for five years now and have tutored in many subjects. I have the most experience tutoring algebra, English, biology, chemistry, and composition. I am in my final year at UNLV and I will be graduating with a Bachelor's degree in biology emphasis pre-professional studies and will be graduating in spring 2009 due to class availability. I will also have a minor in chemistry as well as a minor in English. I have tutored several teens in the Las Vegas Valley. I am currently tutoring a teen to understand basic math skills in order to pass the Nevada math proficiency test. For example, in math algebra is crucial to understanding all math subjects after it. Within algebra there are concepts that are repeated in geometry, trigonometry, and even calculus. I am dedicated to all the students that I tutor.

While in graduate school at the University of Connecticut, I was a teaching assistant for a chemical engineering course on polymers as well as freshman chemistry. Both teaching assignments included: grading homework/test papers and providing office hours for students to visit me and go over problem solving. The chemistry class required me to actually be the teacher for 30 students each semester. Also, as a graduate student teaching assistant for freshman chemistry, I provided help sessions for students going over past test problems to prepare them for upcoming tests. My senior year as an undergraduate at Purdue University. I was selected as a tutor to assist sophomore students with their homework.
My approach to tutoring is not simply to regurgitate what the teacher has already said in the classroom. Students need to have tried to solve the problems on their own before I help them ... read more

Excellence in education and curiosity in the natural world, instilled in me since elementary school, has driven me to be an “A” student through my college education. The curriculums in premedical studies, zoology, and biological sciences, provided me the knowledge to comfortably teach and discuss math and science to all levels of pre-secondary students, while working as a temporary/substitute science/math teacher, and to college undergraduate students, during assignment as a graduate teaching assistant. A summer job as an instructor of nutrition, introduced me to teaching older adults. Tenure as a Chemist for 30 years permitted me to train and mentor new employees, coworkers, and student interns.
I enjoy sharing my knowledge with others, especially children to whom I provide exposure and enthusiasm of learning and understanding, so that they not only understand what they need to ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have tutored and helped children from high school and young adults in college. I like to be friendly to those I tutor and am very easy going. I am very patient with people and do not become easily frustrated. I believe everyone can learn in their own time. I'll try my best to make sure everyone has a pleasant and effective learning environment.
I have graduated from UCSD with a major in Human Biology and a minor in Theatre. Through my schooling, I have learned a wide array of science from biology, chemistry, and physics. From lab reports and 2 years of intensive writing courses, I have a developed a strong foundation ins writing essays, papers, and research reports. I have been a Teaching Assistant for a semester in General Biology. I am able to help people learn to the best of their abilities if they need it.

After obtained my MA degree,I employed as researcher /Lecturer in Ethiopian Civil Service College.This opportunity gave me the best exposure to develop my skills in data collection and analysis in the practical world. As first joining researcher, I was given several chances to participate in training, seminars and workshops regarding data collection, analysis and reporting. This increased my natural ability in understanding mathmatics.
I usually enjoy teaching.I believe in sharing knowledge especially techniques of making long and cumbersome mathmatical equations simple and short. Making the contents of the things more transparent and understandable- making the logic behind the subject matter more clear and precise. This is my way of tutoring.
