Marine Biology Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Oakland, FL

During my year as an AmeriCorps VISTA at the Earth Ethics Institute, a non-profit organization at Miami Dade College, I was responsible for the successful execution of five high-profile programs. I strengthened my ability to multitask and was able to effectively implement each program’s components at their full potential and capabilities. I became accustomed to working independently under strict deadlines and overseeing many service-learning college students who assisted with events. As many of these service-learners regarded me as a role-model, I committed myself to bringing out their full potentials while mentoring them through their college experiences. I was considered the unofficial technological assistant of my workplace due to my proficiency at Microsoft Office and my ability to work at an exceedingly fast pace. In addition to this, my co-workers often request that I overview

Was a Marine Biology minor in college. I also worked for over a year and half as a Marine Mammal Biologist. I have always approached a teaching lesson as a learning opportunity. Learning is a fundamental skill. If you don't have your basic fundamentals, your student will have difficulty advancing. So, I always start with basic fundamentals such as; note taking, study skills, and comprehension! All sciences demand the ability to link concepts together. Ex. cells make up tissues, tissues make up organs, organs make up organ systems,etc.....! By understanding the make-up of cellular structures and relating that to tissue functions the students can fully understand a subject. This proves true with all subjects. By impowering the student with good base fundamentals, my students find it easier to link concepts together. I obtained a B.S. in Biology, with a concentration in aquatic science

I have been tutoring for over 15 years both in students homes or at public locations such as coffee shops or the public library. My education and experience are broad. I was educated at "Ivy League" level schools and purposefully educated myself in a large variety of the humanities, which in essence all tie together. Basic courses up through most High School material outside of the Humanities are not difficult. Actually, while my education has been primarily in the Humanities, the material I see the most in tutoring is Algebra and Geometry! I have a way of perceiving the difficulty the student has, and am able to explain the material in a simple way that makes it easy for students to grasp. I have a good rapport with my student and have had several that have told me that I am the best teacher they have ever had(which didn't hurt my ego!!) I also have a good sense of humor which puts

I am an Elementary Education Major at the University of Florida and have helped many students succeed in all subject areas, with a strong focus on Elementary Education. Some subjects that I particularly tutor in include: math, science, english, social studies, and language arts. I also supply a student with supplemental material I feel will help them learn better and at their own, individual pace. For instance, I believe that some students may learn better through visual exercises, and them others may learn through auditory (hearing) exercises. Either way, I try to figure out what a students learning style is and work on that with a student.

As an educator, I truly believe that all students can be successful in science. Furthermore, I strive to instill an appreciation for both science and learning by creating tasks that challenge students' thinking while providing appropriate support for each student. I teach Anatomy and Physiology Honors as well as Biology Honors in County Schools. I graduated from University of South Florida with a Bachelor’s of Science in Secondary Science Education. My coursework included upper level Biology/Math courses such as Cell Biology, Genetics, and Calculus as well as education classes where I studied topics like educational philosophy. Additionally as an undergraduate I had the opportunity to work as a tutor in several high-need Middle and High schools in the County.

My undergraduate degree is in biology with a focus in marine biology. I've taught multiple science classes including biology, biostatistics, microbiology, and ecology to both those majoring in the sciences as well as non-science majors. I've also taught kids in middle school up through college level. My teaching style is to find out what makes my student tick and how (s)he learns so that I can tailor my lessons to him or her.

I have recently graduated from the University of Tampa in May 2012 with a Bachelor of Science in Marine Science and Biology. I have completed an internship with the Clearwater Marine Aquarium in Clearwater, FL in 2011 where I worked with the hospitality department and sea turtle department. Through this internship I have given multiple presentations on various aspects of marine biology to teach the public about conservation methods. At the aquarium, I have also been involved in and watched various surgeries performed on marine organism and gained insight on the medical attention of marine animals. I have also completed an internship with Hammocks Beach State Park in Swansboro, NC in 2012 while working on sea turtle nesting and research on sea turtle mig

Assisting students with their study has been the most rewarding experience, which I hope to continue. I first teach the students how to study so that they are able to fully understand the material, grasp it, and be able to apply it, and not have to memorize purely for that purpose. I have been able to apply a few simple steps with the students which have proven effective and help in any subject. I love working with children and see that every child has the potential to be successful when they are instructed properly. I have earned a bachelors degree in Business Administration as well as a masters in Finance. This education not only allowed me to gain the knowledge but learn to apply it. I am able to tutor not only in the sciences but also the arts. Throughout my volunteer experience in helping students of all ages with their study, I have learned to instruct students how to study s

In May of 2005, I graduated with a BA in Music from California Baptist University. Through my extensive studies and focus, I have gained a broad range of knowledge in each core subject. Over the past year I have tutored students in various subjects including Algebra, Geometry, US History, English, Writing Skills, Study Skills, and basic Elementary skills. My students have ranged from the ages of 6 to 16 years of age. I have also been working as a substitute teacher for the past year. As a teacher and tutor, my goal is to give children the one-on-one attention they need, while increasing their level of understanding. I believe that it is important to incorporate creativity and excitement into learning. Many children have the ability to learn difficult subjects, but lack focus. It is important to find methods that work for each student as an individual. I have a great deal of patience and

I learned quickly in my career that all children learn in unique ways...what works for one does not necessarily work for another. I use diagrams, pictures, examples, stories, and labs to teach students in a way that excites and engages them. I generally have a good relationship with my students and strive to make learning fun and rewarding. My philosophy is that every child is capable of achieving success if given the right tools and taught how to use them effectively. As a graduate witha focus on science, I have learned to develop unique ways to enrich, engage, and excite students about science. I not only have a Bachelors of Science in Natural Resource Sciences, but I have many years of experience educating youth about all aspects of the sciences. I have learned what srategies work with youth so they can feel comfortable int he learning process, as well. Over the past three years I hav

I love teaching. I believe that teachers make the most impact in a child's life and often change the course of their lives. I find that students learn differently and like to incorporate audio/visual teaching with hands-on projects. I believe that children learn best when they enjoy what they are experiencing, so I try to make my lessons enjoyable and informative. I am an experienced teacher, having taught in both the private and public sectors. I have taught Social Studies and English as well as three years as a head debate coach. I have extensive skills in literature and grammar as well as history. I have tutored in all elementary subjects as well as grammar, literature and history.
