Marine Biology Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Red Oak, GA

My passion for teaching comes from a desire to learn and teach about new experiences. As a graduate from Strayer University, I am a living testimony that hard work and dedication to learn pays off. For six years working as a tutor and teaching have been the most rewarding jobs I had. I feel I am making a difference in the lives of the students I teach, as I observe them gaining more knowledge and watching their grades increase. The subjects I specialize tutoring in are English, ESL/ESOL, Reading, Writing, and Marine Biology. While attending Clayton State University, I was known for having great writing and reading skills by students who were in my study groups at the beginning of the term. Many times, they would ask me to review their paper and correct errors found in their paper, so I decided to work in the learning support center in my junior year of college. I provided academic assi

My objective as a teacher is for my students to learn the fundamental contents of the course I teach. My drive is to foster critical thinking in my students,encourage the acquisition of life long skills, prepare the students to effectively seek information and to develop problem-solving skills.I encourage both individual and collaborative projects to get feedback from students. I prefer student-centered learning principles for large lectures and active-learning principles for small groups or one on one coaching. I have thirteen years of teaching experience in Tertiary institution teaching Biology, zoology, Anatomy , Physiology, Pharmacology, Medicine, Poultry science among other subjects.I have a DVM degree and have extensive experience in related subjects to the profession coupled with more than adequate practical and life experience.

As a graduate student in Biomechanics with a B.S. in Biomedical Engineering I have gained an extensive knowledge of mathematics and the physical sciences, which I have been able to combine with my laboratory research experience and personal endeavors to develop a complete understanding of a well-rounded education. In conjunction with this education I have been a laboratory instructor for three years, which has allowed me to develop and implement course curriculum, including lectures, assignments, and final projects, while cultivating a great understanding of the teacher- student relationship. Allotting me the requisite skills to change students live, my experience in higher education has truly shown me how important it is to aid someone in their quest for a higher education. The greatest gift that one can give is that of an education and the greatest gifts that the provider must have

Reflective of my disposition, immediately in order to establish a conducive learning environment in which the student feels comfortable, I try to employ a mellow, patient, open-minded and light-hearted atmosphere. I very much enjoy teaching, and try to make it so my student(s) enjoys learning. I was once asked by a student, "Are you a Biology teacher?" I replied, "No, just a student." She replied, "You should be." Generally I review and outline the material before-hand. During the session I welcome questions, and offer explanations relating direct facts, my own take on the subject/idea, diagrams, and even relevant fun stories to help them remember the fact/idea. As a University of West Georgia Biology Workshop Leader I was responsible for checking pre-workshop practice problems, working through workshop problems with the students, administering tests, grading the said tests, keeping or

I enjoy teaching and tutoring others. I am from a family of four, and as the eldest child I tutored all my siblings in science subject areas were they had difficulties. I like to help kids that have an interest in science. I try to instill the enjoyment I have for the subject. I have earned a Doctoral degree in Medicine and a Masters degree in Public Health concentrating in Epidemiology and Bioststatistics. As a research scientist, some of the subjects that I had to do well in were math, biology, chemistry and physics. I supervise various levels of our staff and have been told by my peers that I am a good teacher.

I believe that science has a undeserved reputation for difficulty as a subject that is directly related to the inability of many teachers to "break it down". Science can seem to be like a foreign language to the uninitiated, but at its essence science is simply a way of thinking about the world and asking questions. Several themes appear again and again in concepts that on the surface may seem unrelated and it is recognizing these themes that is the key to success in building knowledge and confidence. My teaching philosophy is to point out these common threads binding various topics in science and relate it to the real world as quickly as possible, always with the goal of breaking it down to its simplest explanation. I hold a bachelor of science in Biology (cum laude) from Morehouse College in Atlanta, GA and attended graduate school at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine

As an undergraduate student I was always in the top ten percentile of my math, chemistry and biology classes, and as a result, I tutored fellow college students in those respective subjects. After earning my bachelor degree in biology, I worked as an educator at the South Carolina Aquarium where I taught interactive classes to kindergarten, middle school and high school students. I also worked for the Leadership Development Program at the College of Charleston where I co-facilitated student leadership classes. And most recently, while in graduate school I held a teaching assistant position and tutored freshman and sophomore college students in topics related to international development. My teaching style is based on the student’s learning style. Each child is different and may require different teaching methods to facilitate learning. Some children are more visual and may require more i

I am currently teaching anatomy and physiology courses to students training to become licensed Registered Nurses. The courses focus on basic science principles and the relationship of these concepts to human function and structure, clinically. I have experience teaching at a university as a Teacher's Assistant in chemistry. The classes would meet before a test and discuss the analytical techniques of the course. I am currently teaching an Anatomy and Physiology course for nurses looking to pass the RN liscensing exam. My approach to teaching is centered around the particular goals of the student or students. Clearly, a course centered around a liscensing test will focus on the material that will be on that test. Otherwise, teaching has to be catered to the student's ability to learn the material and focus on the weakness in understanding the concepts involved in the material.

I have teaching experience in Anatomy and Physiology (honors), Biology (honors and on-level), and Life Science (honors and on-level). I have served as an AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination) and America Reads tutor in math and science for the past two years. I have had an outstanding success rate with previously poor performing students at local schools and at after school programs in the community. Science, and in particular, Biology, has always been a passion of mine. It is my professional goal to increase the science literacy level for my community by sharing my experiences and knowledge with students at the high school level. In addition to completing the course work required to obtain a Biology Education degree, I have taught in a pilot school for a standard based curriculum in which units were presented in nine-week segments, allowing for quarterly benchmark assessment o

I love children of all ages, including Middle School and Highschool. I do not alweats go by the book. I do what I feel is best for that particular child's learning style. I teach outside the box and encourage learning rather than straight memorization. I help children love learning. I taught in public school and private. While doing so and during summers, I tutored on my own. I got married in 1986, had three children and stayed out of the classroom for a while. I homeschooled my own children and began an ACCREDITED highschool for home schoolers. I taught and tutored all subjects. I have also worked with several learning disabled children. I can teach/tutor pretty much any subject ages K-college. I have also worked in the Writing Lab at Clayton State College. I feeel very qualified for this job.

My teaching style is very goal oriented. I do love to teach and am very patient on teach subject matter. I don't believe in pushing through subject matter when a student does not have the basic knowledge needed for success in the future. I am passionate about my ability to teach others and take the fact very seriously that what I am teaching today will brighten the lives of many in the future. I am a Georgia State University Graduate of 2008. I got my masters of science from there and am now looking to disperse my knowledge to others. I excel in biology and other science related fields. I have most recently taught labs for Georgia State University in the field of microbiology.

My current teaching style is adaptable to the learning styles of the students that I am teaching. In general, if I am teaching a certain topic, I will first ask students a few questions on the topic in order to identify the level of their familiarity. This enable the student(s) to build on transferable skills as well as recover knowledge stored in memory. After that,I will give an overview of the topic. For example, if my topic is atom, students will be told the word "atom" is associated with elements along with other facts. Next, I would give the students oral/written questions to ascertain their principal learning styles in order to modify my teaching style for optimum learning. I am a Georgia Certified Science Teacher with approximately fourteen years teaching experience in Georgia. I have taught Physical Science, Environmental Science, Genetics, Chemistry, Biology and Oceanograp

After teaching for 25 years, the first and most important element of interaction between a student and a teacher is one of mutual respect. The student wants the teacher to listen to their needs and concerns, and the teacher wants to be respected for his/her wealth of knowledge through experience. This is built through patience and understanding. A personal relationship is also helpful in tutoring, more on the level of a parent or adult friend. As a member of the Golden Key Honor Society in Education at Queens College in Flushing, NY I excelled at all the subjects I took pertaining to Elementary Education. I have a full awareness of the importance for structure and flow within an essay. Voice is sometimes overlooked, but is equally essential in representing the author's conviction to the subject matter of their work.
