A Little Bit About Me...

I mentored elementary kids when i was in middle school for a year. It was an amazing feling knowing that I was helping younger kids learn to read and do math. My relationship with them was excllent because it5 waswnt just a job to me it was an oppertunity that changed my life. Since I love working with kids so much I thought that tutoring would be a great oppertunity to do what I love AND continue going to school to be a pediatrician.

Extremely Experienced Biology Tutor

26 Years of teaching experience, ranging from middle school to graduate school. 13 years of high school teaching experience. Have taught all levels of biology, human anatomy and physiology, numerous biology electives such as environmental science, introductory physical science, introductory earth science, and geology courses including physical geology. Have experience as a writing tutor both at the college and high school level.
My teaching style is conversational-I talk to the student, rather than at or over him/her. I try to keep the student engaged by consistently posing thinking questions that help reinforce skills in scientific deduction. I am fond of using humor as a teaching tool, and will use funny or analogies as necessary to make a point understandable or memorable.

My comments on tutoring Science : I have a strong background in all of the sciences, physical and biological. I have taught college level survey courses where either the whole of science (physical science-biology), or the physical sciences (physics, chemistry, earth, and space science) were covered.

My philosophy of teaching is guided mainly by one over-riding principle, respect for the student with focus on the individual. I have taken courses with large lecture sections where out of necessity the professor talked at, or worse over, the student audience, and in this situation I have noticed a tendency for students to disconnect from both the professor and the class material, which certainly hindered material comprehension. Based upon this experience, I have come to prefer various forms of Socratic dialog as an instructor. I believe this teaching style has a number of advantages. First, it keeps the student mentally involved in the lecture, so that class does not degrade into simple mechanical note-taking. Secondly, it shows respect on my part for the students' intellect, which I believe inspires confidence and thus enhances learning and intellectual growth. Finally, it gives studen ... read more

Spanish, Biology, Chemistry and sciences tutor

First, I analyze my students to determine their learning style. Based on that, I customize my lessons to fit each individual student's needs. I commonly use visual tools such as colorful drawings and try to connect the material to real world situations.
I majored in Biochemistry and Pharmacology at the UNAM in Mexico City. Along with extensive coursework in Biology, Micro Biology, Chemistry, and related subjects, I also worked extensively in the lab conducting experiments connected with these subject areas. I can also tutor Spanish since it is my native language. I have great references from students I am currently working with.
