My comments on tutoring Physics : Physics I and Physics II at Penn State University

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 recently to begin medical school.
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 ... read more

I taught college composition to college students as a teaching assistant while I was in grad school. I completed a teaching practicum as part of my training. I tutored calculus and algebra to college students while I was an undergraduate. I earned the College Reading and Learning Association (CRLA) certification.
I believe in a personal, individual attention approach to tutoring as this is how I myself was taught by my parents and siblings. I am also result oriented as far as grades are concerned.

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

Only four years after immigrating from Belgium to the US, self motivated success and ambition allowed me to graduate Valedictorian of my high school class. I was offered a full ride scholarship to UC Berkeley, the #1 public university in the nation. I was pleased with my accomplishments and proceeded to keep following my dream of becoming a pharmacist. I was an Honors college graduate with a BA in Economics and a minor in Spanish but, because I was still interested in health care, my courses ranged from macroeconomics and Spanish American literature to biology, physics and organic chemistry. Extracurricular activities as a volunteer tutor and mentor have allowed me to develop the skills and patience to be an effective and compassionate teacher.

A Little Bit About Me...

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 to get the most value from their experience with me. It does little good to the student for me to guide them entirely through each problem with out them first trying to figure it out on their own. First, this helps one to develop problem solving skills which is different from knowing the subject matter. Second, it allows me to adjust the problem solving techniques to that particular student.
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 ... read more

As a retired Osteopath I realize the value of education and the problems that we all have in learning,. I have a B.A. in Chemistry and recall some of the problems I had learning some of the principles of the discipline and I would hope that I could help someone understand the problems in learning the subject. It can be difficult. I am a patient person and I have taught medical students when I lived in Ohio from the Ohio University College of Osteopathic Medicine as a clinical professor. I hope I can make learning Chemistry fun and not a bore and difficult like some of my teachers did.
My teaching style is one of non-confrontational teaching. I have had professors who did that, and it only serves to put the student on edge and not lend itself to learning. I prefer to find out what the pupil is having trouble with and then see if I can find an interest in the concept for the student ... read more
