Become a star, through dedication and desire to succeed!!

I have taught in both suburban schools at the high school level and urban schools at the elementary/middle school level. While teaching I previously have tutored students. My main experience teaching has been various science courses but I have also taught math and reading. I began my education thinking I would be an elementary school teacher but then discovered my love of science so I took additional classes while completing my Master's so I could be certified to teach science. When I began teaching I realized many special education students were not receiving the appropriate accommodations to ensure their success so I decided to specialize in Special Education as I pursue my PhD so I can offer the best education to my students and help them become successful and feel confident with their new skills.
I love interacting with my students and finding out what drives them and what ... read more

My comments on tutoring Life Science : I hold a Ph.D in a Life Science discipline.

I believe that stimulating conversation and allowing people to arrive at answers on their own and through experience is the best way to form lasting connections.
I took a variety of Biology classes and Labs at WPI mostly focused on Cell Biology and Molecular Genetics. I recently finished my PH.D. where I studied control of viral gene expression. This work encompassed a variety of biological disciplines including virology, cell biology, molecular biology, biochemistry, and molecular genetics, all of which I am quite experienced in. I also have experience teaching in a seminar format as well as in small groups. As a senior graduate student I was responsible for leading discussions prior to invited speaker seminars.

As a recent graduate from the University of Hartford, I have excelled in my studies. With majors in Elementary Education, Special Education, and Rhetoric and Professional Writing, I stand with Magna Cum Laude and University Honors. The integregation of my majors has made me realize the importance of reading and writing in the classroom. I am experienced in reading and writing recovery as well as working with students with exceptionalities. My students have been identified as LD, ID, ED, Tramatic Brain Injured, Autistic, Cri Du Chat Syndrome, and Cerebral Palsy. For the past four years I used to tutor with Club Z tutoring. I've tutored students in elementary studies, students with LD, AP English, AP History, Math, and Spanish.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have had a successful career as a medical scientist in hospital, government, and reference laboratories in the northeast and southern U.S., holding bench, supervisory, and leadership positions. I have two college degrees with published articles, and two national certifications, all in the sciences. For the past eight years I have been a substitute teacher and tutor in thirteen urban, suburban, and rural public school systems in Connecticut. I enjoy helping elementary school children improve their reading, writing, and math skills in a one-on-one setting the most. I also like to work with enthusiastic students (any level) who are science-oriented, and enjoy introducing them to scientific methods, experimental data, and microscopy.
My goal is to help your child achieve success. I explain real-life applications of the subject (i.e., metric system--repair of foreign cars.) I enco ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Both my Education and work experiences have thoroughly enhanced both my knowledge, as well as my communications skills. Having a degree in Biology with a minor in Chemistry, I have attained knowledge in various fields of science. I have been gifted with a natural ability to communicate, and my experiences in both work and study have enhanced both my verbal and my written communication skill. Both in college as well in camps, I have had the privilege of tutoring people, primarily in the sciences.
I enjoy helping people acquire knowledge. I have experienced the full spectrum of both poor and excellent instructors myself, so I am aware of what needs to be done in order to facilitate learning. I assess the abilities of each person I work with and develop an approach accordingly. I think that a combination of patience and humor can provide for an outstanding learning environment, and I ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I began tutoring as an undergrad student working for the college's academic support office tutoring math and science courses. After graduating cum laude with a BA in Mathematics, BS in Meteorology, Physics minor, and Secondary Education certification, I went straight into teaching. For the next 8 years I was a jr high and high school math and science teacher. I taught Physics, earth Science, Physical Science, General Science, and math classes ranging from 7th grade basic math up through trigonometry. Last year I returned to school to earn a masters degree in Applied Statistics from Cornell University. During that year I tutored 4 Cornell students in Statistics, Calculus, and Finite Math, and 3 high school students in Earth Science, Algebra, and Geometry.
It is my belief that most students that seek out the extra help of a tutor have a much greater capacity to learn than they r ... read more

As a Trinity College graduate, I had the chance to experience a liberal arts education which gave me the opportunity to learn about and excel in a broad range of subject areas. Moreover throughout my college years I have been able to gain extensive writing skills in all my courses. Regarding my teaching experience, I worked as a teacher assistant for a year as well as have tutored ESOL and elementary school students. With the experience I have had as well as the knowledge I have gained about education in my college courses I know I’d be capable of tutoring various subjects, levels and age groups. I have the skill to quickly learn and recall course material, gain a complete understanding of it and then teach this material successfully.

My educational career was full of challenges that have given me a broad basis of knowledge for tutoring. In high school, I earned the International Baccalaureate (IB) diploma. I subsequently earned a BS in Ceramic Engineering and an MBA in Operations Management. I started tutoring in high school when I managed a literacy program that paired high school students with students at a local elementary school. In college, I tutored math and physics through a formal program at the high school. After graduation, I continued to tutor, and in the past six years, I have tutored many students in all levels of mathematics (elemenatary, high school, and college). I also tutor students in college test preparation (SAT and ACT), spanish,science, English, and reading.
I enjoy working closely with students and their families to achieve the student's goals. I know that the definition of "succe ... read more

I knew that I wanted to share what I was passionate about with others before I completed my undergraduate program in biology with certification cum laude.  Once I earned my bachelors of science degree, I pursued my masters program slowly having the opportunity to incorporate my love for the ocean and earning an Eisenhower Fellow at the same time.  My masters of science degree is in the natural sciences.  Although I have taught science and math to both public and private classes, grades 7-12, today, I am the vocational/educational specialist for a group home for young mothers as well as a town tutor.
If provided the opportunity to succeed, students will follow.  According to the movies, "If you build it, they will come."  I am a firm believer in modeling.  I lead by example.  I am patient, easily reachable, approachable, and a firm believer in every child's success.  I realize there ... read more

More About This Tutor...

During the past four years of my undergraduate study, I have been given many opportunities to work and explore outside of my degree in piano performance. I was able to take a class about working with exceptional learners. Outside of the classroom, I have had the opportunity to counsel children with special needs during summer programs and a winter ski program. I have also had the opportunity to work as a one-on-one aide for a child in a public school summer program. Recently, I have had the opportunity to tutor a junior high student in both math and English. I have worked with children with a variety of disabilities and needs. Here are some examples: autism (from severe to high functioning), cerebral palsy, down syndrome, ADD/ADHD, hearing impaired, and deaf.
I love working and communicating with children. Every child that I have worked with is very different, and each child presen ... read more
