My comments on tutoring Life Science : My main focus in Biology was life sciences, including ecology, but also plants and animals.

I received my B.S. degree in Biology, and am knowledgeable about many sub-disciplines, including life sciences (plants/animals), genetics, evolution, and anatomy. I am generally able to explain difficult biological concepts in a more conversational way. I've worked with high school youth in the past (approx. 2 years experience) in a crew structure teaching job skills (resume writing, interviewing, etc.) and basic biological/ecological principles. I have worked with family and friends to teach basic personal finance and resume-writing tips to help them achieve great results. I am primarily an environmental consultant, and I routinely use MS Office programs to analyze, organize, and present data in easy-to-understand ways. I've taught several co-workers, family members, and friends how to use these programs effectively, and shown them helpful tips to make it easier.

My comments on tutoring Life Science : As a tutor in the college-prep after-school program Upward Bound,I helped students understand Chemistry concepts for 7 years, and know where the basic pitfalls are. I have also taught Plant Science at the college level

I taught college-level Plant Science for 14 years. I spent 7 years as a tutor of Math and Science at the college-prep after-school program Upward bound, helping students with homework and preparing them for the ACT and the SAT. I am currently employed as a Math tutor at a local technical college where I help students with Basic Math, Intro Algebra,Intermediate Algebra, College Algebra, Trig and Elementary Statistics.
I start by giving a diagnostic test to assess each student's proficiency in the basics of Arithmetic and Algebra: fractions, decimals, percentages and the interconversion between them,and the rules of working with signed numbers. This approach stems from the notion that without these basics, Math is an uphill climb for most students. I place more emphasis on full work than answers.

A Little Bit About Me...

Experience with taking the MCAT (40Q, taken in September 2011) and general knowledge of college level sciences, including biochemistry, biology, chemistry, physics etc. No formal experience in tutoring except helping my little brother out in high school level subjects, but I am very eager to gain some and I am more than happy to help out to the best of my ability!

While attending and completing four years of Education courses at a well respected institution I was focused and driven to complete the curriculum and focus on creative lesson planning. Maintaining a GPA of 3.6 in Education courses while participating in four years of collegiate sports really polished my ability to multi-task. The preparation and focus applied in college paired with an immense interest in History has molded me into a life learner as well as teacher. Most of my experience is related to the Social Sciences, however I have substitute taught several math and science classes. I have also completed multiple college courses in math and science.
I have a very modifiable style of teaching, meaning I cater to the student or students. I quickly learn the curriculum and can find multiple ways to teach it. This allows me to utilize the students major styles of learning and d ... read more

I develop most of my lesson plans using GLAD principles. I like to use multiple senses, student interaction and various resources to keep the student active. When teaching a language, it is important to know the basic grammar structure first, and then speaking and listening follow. I work with people with disabilities, teaching them how to canoe with a company called Wilderness Inquiry. The company's motto is: Anyone, anywhere, anytime, any place. We strive to make this possible, because it is possible! It is possible to have a quadriplegic go on a canoe trip or a blind person to kayak through caves. I have learned that anything is possible with adaptation. While teaching, a successful teacher can allow everyone to learn, with adaptation.
During my undergraduate career, there were multiple influences that contributed to my passion for teaching. First, I tutored college students fr ... read more

I have a natural talent for being a leader/teacher and have been complimented on my ability to reach out to youth. I like to teach through “hands on” approach, practice and problem solving.

I have always enjoyed teaching. I love it when students have that moment when they finally get what you have been teaching them. I have taught a wide range of students, from Kindergarten thru 60 year-olds returning to college. I believe that the hands-on approach works best for most students, learning by applying their knowledge. I feel I have made a difference in the lives of students. I am patient and will continue going over information until the student has grasped it.
I am currently teaching part time at Globe University, I teach Business Math and Accounting. I enjoy helping my students learn new skills and strive to do their best as they achieve their educational goals. In addition, I have worked in the elementary school as a special education paraprofessional. I worked with four special needs children in the 4th grade.

I am a life-long learner and have two master's degrees, one from Harvard. Because of my deep interest in how children learn, I also have a degree in child development. As a teacher's aide in a public school kindergarten, I spent five years tutoring children in reading, writing, math, science, and art. I also enjoy working with English language learners. I spent one year teaching early literacy skills to refugee children, and three years teaching English to Japanese children. Both as a student and as a financial analyst I have learned how to conduct research and write concise, informative reports and essays.
I enjoy teaching, working with, and learning with children. Children have different learning styles and temperaments and I try to adapt my teaching to these differences. I am creative, patient, and enthusiastic. I firmly believe that children can learn more when there is s ... read more
