I believe that first key step to successful teaching is to allows the student convey his/her needs or problem areas. While much can be gained from looking at previous evaluations and test scores, I think that it is crucial to let the student express their needs to make them feel comfortable and build a commitment to the teaching program. In individual sessions, I feel that allowing the student to discuss concepts out loud in addition to completing written exercises and preparing questions facilitates the learning process. I also find that real world analogies are useful ways of linking academic information to previously learned concepts and facilitate the student's understanding. Walking students through diagrams or schematics is also helpful, especially when teaching scientific information. Since high school, I have tutored friends, peers, and my younger siblings in several subjects

In Medical School, Residency and practice I have always been expected to be in the simultaneous role of student, teacher, mentor and tutor. I can say I have a vast amount of training and expereience in science, physics, chemistry, mathematics, as well as the liberal arts. I score as an ITSP on the Myers-Briggs evaluation which means I am not only concrete in speech and utilitarian in getting things done, I am also directive and attentive in teaching settings. I have done a small amount of teaching at the junior college level and am comfortable giving oral presentations to groups of people. My teaching style has been to make learning fun and easy to remember. When I have taught I've been very interactive with the students and have gotten many compliments from students and patients as well, on my ability to communicate on almost any level.

AS a pharmacy graduate, I gain a strong background of different science materials. I earned a bachelor degree in pharmacy, which enables me to have a strong understanding of many subjects, namely, Biology, chemistry, and environmental science. In addition, I gained the experience of tutoring the science subjects while I was in the University. I work with adult and children, and I enjoy teaching all of ages. I worked for three years in a private language school tutoring adults, children, and professionals. I employed my understanding of methodology of education in my career. That is why I strongly believe that I made a difference in the student’s lives. As a teacher of foreign language in a private language school.

Having graduated as a Phi Beta Kappa Scholar from UNC-Chapel Hill, I have always achieved a level of excellence in education. I have earned two bachelor of science (B.S.) degrees in Biology and Chemistry. As a result of achieving mastery in these areas, I have tutored students in subjects such as Genetics, Biochemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physics and Calculus. Through tutoring, I have learned that it helps me enrich my own knowledge about the subject matter thus, allowing me to approach concepts/problems in different ways. In my own studies I have learned the importance of gaining a firm grasp of fundamental knowledge in order to apply it to situations that one has never encountered. This style of learning is at the forefront of science and mathematics. During tutoring, I make sure that the students have properly attained the fundamental knowledge and avoid teaching only how to solve spe

To become a great teacher one has to love the job, willing to give his best and most importantely be creative. I first beleive that all children can learn if they have the right instructor. To me,a student does not fail, but the teacher does. Failure of one student out of hundreed is a failure of the teacher. I listen to students and I do my best to help the students anyway I can. To conclude, my style is simple: listen to students,be creative and be there to help the students. My graduate teaching assistant experience gave me a unique opportunity to understand what it takes to be a great teacher.I Taught general chemistry 1&2 and physical chemistry at the Univesity of Virginia. I have also worked in the industry for three years which which a practical understanding of Chemistry.

Ever since I was a child, I've loved education. Learning has always been a strong passion of mine. Math, English and science were subjects that I naturally excelled in and fell in love with. I began tutoring fellow classmates in high school. Algebra was most definitely my strong suit, and I loved to help everyone out in any way that I could. During my undergraduate years, I began to tutor my peers in organic chemistry, cell biology, algebra, English, statistics and pre-calculus. They all began to pass tests that they had prior doubts about and raising their grade. I love to share my knowledge with people. I love to see them succeed. Learning is a good thing and it can be quite enjoyable as well. I am a very analytical and visual person. I break things down for students. I help to make things simpler. Some students need to understand both how and why they reached a particular answer. Ot

After receiving my BS in Chemistry I obtained an analytical position with Pfizer Global Research & Development. For six years I worked in many different aspects of synthetic chemistry whether it was purification, IT infrastructure, or bench top wet chemistry. I also worked in the area of peptide chemistry performing automated synthesis. Over the last year I have tutored both adults and high school students in the areas of mathematics and science. My teaching is simple, every person can learn math and science. I believe that with hands-on learning to support the lessons taught each student can achieve success. I like using my experience in industry to give real world examples of how math and science is applied to everyday life. To often children are intimidated by math and science because of past perceptions, but I believe that if you teach a child how to learn and study anything can

Since high school I've been working with my peers to help clarify subject matter, as that was my favorite method of study. In college I tutored under-classmen in Spanish, chemistry, and political science. Since graduating, I've worked with college freshmen as a writing tutor and with middle school students to teach algebra and pre-algebra. I'm a very strong writer, and I've got a broad background allowing me to tutor in any subject through freshmen year to college. My method of teaching varies with the subject. A spanish tutor and a chemistry tutor can go about things quite differently. I like leading students to find answers on their own so that they understand the paths they are taking. That method is especially helpful in hard sciences and math. In the liberal arts (poli-sci, literature, religion, philosophy, etc.) I like to work in the Socratic method. I'll challenge the students on

I believe that education is the key to success and I hope to encourage my students to see the fun and excitement in learning rather than treating it as a task they have to do. I am very creative and patient when it comes to teaching my students. I think all children have natural curiosity and it just needs to be sparked by a patient and fun person. I hope to be that person for my students. I am driven to help others especially through education. I have a BS in Biology and Chemistry from Duke University which allowed me to have in depth understanding of both subjects. Furthermore I have experience tutoring a college bound student with Biology and Pre-calculus, furthermore I have additional tutoring experience in math, reading, language and all areas of the sciences.

In high school, I tutored mathematics at Alexander Children's Center. Many of the children were abused at home, creating difficult challenges initially. However, I was able to work through some of these challenges by creating a calm and understanding environment, but also by establishing a routine. Today, I continue to volunteer at the Center as a basketball coach and can honestly say that I love working with children. I realize that tutoring for children without emotional problems will be entirely different, but I believe the fundamentals of my approach will improve the performance of my students. As a high school student, I excelled in math and science. I received a 5 on BC Calculus, AP Statistics and AP Environmental Science, and 4 in AP Chemistry and AP American History. At Duke University, I majored in environmental science and policy, with a minor in economics. After working for th

I am a current teacher for the Princeton Review for the SAT (soon also for the GRE and GMAT), as well as a former tutor for Huntington Learning Center (SAT). A score of 1400 on the SAT allows me the credibility to teach, while a self-awareness allows me to understand the mechanisms and strategies that have allowed me this success. As a recipient of two bachelor degrees, in Biochemistry and Psychology, I am uniquely positioned to help students on a variety of subjects. My curriculum included Biology, Biochemistry, Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physics, Math, and a litany of Psychology courses, including the Psychology of Learning. I am a huge proponent of the dialectic and Socratic methods of teaching, while recognizing the need for the didactic to learn the basic methods of academics. My own experience, as well as my background in Psychology, helps me recognize that learning mu

I have an adaptive teaching style that I can customize to the individual student or group of students. I heavily leverage visuals and models, especially in organic chemistry. For me, the key is to relate a concept to something a student is already familiar with. I love analogies, and I use them to drive students to think about chemistry. As a graduate from one of the top PhD programs in the country, I have a breadth of experience in chemistry. At Texas A&M I specialized in organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry and polymer chemistry. My teaching experience includes polymer chemistry, organic chemistry and freshman chemistry classes. My tutoring experience includes 4 years of tutoring both freshman chemistry and organic chemistry. I have highly developed communication skills and can explain even the most complex concepts to any student.

I believe that each child learns in a different way, and as a teacher it is my challenge and duty to teach in such a way, to approach the problem from enough different angles, that each student would understand the concept at hand. I love that challenge. I am easy going, patient, and I relate well to children. I look forward to learning with and from each student I encounter. In 2002 I graduated with a degree in biotechnology. During the last semester of school, I was a substitute teacher, where I learned a lot about children and different teaching styles. After graduation, I pursued a career as a chemist, but I always maintained a second part-time job teaching, in some fashion. Usually, that teaching involved a pool. I have been a swimming lesson instructor for 10 years and have been a YMCA swim coach for 3 seasons, coaching over 200 children per year. In these opportunities, I
