Marine Biology Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Riverdale, 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

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.

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 organized attendance records, and reporting to my superviors. Not mandated by my outlined responsibilities as a workshop leader but in addition to, I formulated lecture notes, lectured on the said notes, created study aids/diagrams, and offered additional assistance in the tutor room outside of the designated workshop hours. 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 t

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. 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 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.

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 interactive exercises to learn. I do not believe in spoon-feeding information to children but taking the time to ensure that they fully grasped the concept of a problem and are able to think through a solution on their own. I will work to develop their critical thinking skills and will challenge them, so that they are not just passive learners but active participants in the cognitive process. I am patient and will work at the student’s pace encouraging him/her to give his/her best effort to the given task. 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 subj

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.

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

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.
