More About This Tutor...

My teaching style consists of asking leading questions to enable the student to learn how to think through problems on their own.
Though my experience is mostly in molecular biology, it can be expanded to general life sciences. I have just completed a PhD in Genetics at Cornell University with a minor in biochemistry and during my graduate experience, I lectured as a Teaching Assistant for the Introduction to Genetics class for 8 semesters.

LESSONS SHOULD ACCOMMODATE STUDENT LEARNING STYLES

I have 15 years of teaching experience with special needs students in a rural school district. During this time i provided private tutoring sessions for Elementary, Middle, High School and College students. At the college level my tutoring experience is with reading, writing, study skills and organization. Currently I develop educational programming for incarcerated youth.
My belief is that all students have different learning styles. Therefore lessons need to be individualized to meet student needs. In order to be successful students need to be engaged by creative teachers. My teaching experience has taught me to accommodate these needs when developing lesson plans.

A Little Bit About Me...

If I am tutoring a young person I contact the teacher so that I can find out what areas the student needs review in. Many times the teacher will give me the resources and materials to use. Also, I like to use the guide books for each grade that are sold in stationary areas of most stores. For tutoring in reading I've found the Leapfrog Reading Program is very helpful. I like to meet my students at the library so that I can use the resources found in the library, including the computer. Many times I use educational games because are very useful tools in learning, and they are fun.
I graduated from Finger Lakes Community College with an AA in Elementary Education. I passed the NYS Teacher's Assistant Skills Test in 2006. I worked at BOCES as a tutor. I tutored high school, middle school and elementary school students. I also worked in the BOCES classrooms as a tea ... read more

I have taught high school science for nine years at Penn Yan Academy including: The Living Environment, Chemistry, Environmental Chemistry, and Access Science for Special Education students. I have permanent teaching certificates in Chemistry 7-12, and Biology - General Science 7-12.
I believe that students must be able to perform through practice problems to fully demonstrate understanding of information. Therefore, I will check to see what a student understands about a particular topic, give some instruction, and then test their knowledge with appropritae questions.

I feel as though every student will have their own niche. They will have a special subject that they enjoy the most and one that they despise. I think that figuring out how the child studies for the subject they enjoy will lead to an understanding of how to motivate that student to learn the subjects that are more difficult for them. Also, if the student's teacher stays positive and pushes him or her towards success by means of positive reinforcement they will succeed.
While studying at SUNY ESF I held a position as a teaching assistant for Western Civilization. This involved grading exams and papers, preparing and giving lectures, and holding office hours to assist students with any questions or concerns they may have had. I also spent time volunteering to teach and after school science club through ESF Outreach for elementary / middle school aged children.

As a Cornell graduate of Biomedical Engineering, I was able to learn about a variety of subjects and gain a better understanding of multiple types of math and science. As an instructor for the Cornell ballroom dance team, I have taught classes for two years in addition to my tutoring in math and science for another two years. I have written up multiple laboratory reports and research papers as well as a final Master's project. My students enjoy my teaching style and I would be happy to be your instructor.
I really enjoy working with all people, I understand that everyone has a learning style, but above all you have to work hard to get to the next level. I am patient, thoughtful and willing to offer my support. I think it's important to summarize the important parts of the subject and then have the student remember them and focus on how to manipulate those parts into useful pro ... read more

Throughout college, I was a substitute teacher at the local elementary and middle school where I worked with the children in the classroom environment. I also worked one on one with children that were having a difficult time in their classwork. I was also a tutor to the middle school and lower high school students during my Junior and Senior year of high school. I earned a BA degree in Biochemistry and am very comfortable in tutoring middle and high school students in the sciences.
I have always been a patient teacher and have learned that each child has there own learning style. To better tutor a child, they need to be able to learn in their own style. I understand this and will do my best to target their style to allow them to learn in a way that is easy and fun for them. I try to apply what is being learned into every day life to keep the interest in the subject, I feel th ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

One of the advantages of my background is the variety of people I have worked with. Regardless of different cultures, races, socioeconomic backgrounds and ages, I have the unique ability to connect with people in a language they understand. I utilize this ability to teach by analogy, as many of the things I teach and tutor others on involve complex subjects that the student usually has no direct experience in. When not applicable (such as instructing a student in grammar usage), the other method is to encourage students to learn by doing while I coach, encourage, and draw out thoughtful answers along the way.
As a lifelong student of the humanities and English, I believe that the best way to learn is by teaching and helping others. As a result, whenever and wherever I have been, whether in academia, work environments, or with friends and family, I have sought to apply what I kn ... read more

During my undergraduate career I discovered my passion for teaching. I also discovered that being an educator in the sciences is particularly tricky because it deals with some of the most abstract information with seemingly little real world application. Most people struggle with the sciences and, in their frustration, often give up. My philosophy for teaching has always been to do whatever it takes to keep my students interested and engaged. This usually involves a lot of class participation as well as being creative with my lessons. People learn in a multitude of ways and I am always trying new methods of teaching in order to get through to my students.
Throughout my education I've had a drive to teach. While earning my BS in chemistry with minor in biology I assisted many fellow students by acting as both a laboratory assistant and as a tutor in general chemistry and organic che ... read more

I am a recent graduate of the State University of New York School of Environmental Science and Forestry (SUNY-ESF). This institution offer rigorous studies in all its degree programs. Students are also expected to maintain a prismatic academic spectrum outside of their specialization. In 2005, I enrolled in SUNY-ESF's unique chemistry program. I took notable classes other colleges don't offer, such as Organic Chemistry III, and Spec ID. Classes were taught by PhD researches with years of experience in their fields of chemistry ranging from physical to polymer chemistry. I used technical scientific instruments such as GC/MS, and NMR. Experiencing SUNY-ESF left me with a specialized degree in Natural Products Chemistry, a concentration that focuses on biosynthetic pathways, advanced organic chemistry, synthesis, and technical reading and writing skills. I also studied biology, focusi ... read more

I worked for the Princeton Review as well as various non-profit organizations such as Let's Get Ready! and The Door!, tutoring SAT math and verbal skills. Through these experiences, I've worked with underprivileged youth, and bilingual and ESL speakers. Most recently, I've worked as a teaching assistant for students struggling with college-level writing assignments, met with students one-on-one, and created individualized lesson plans for each student.
I am a magna cum laude graduate from an Ivy League university with several awards for scholarship, leadership, and research. Thus, I believe strongly in working hard not only for myself but for any of the children I teach. I am patient and pride myself on taking on students that require extra effort. I am kind, hardworking, and reliable - I believe that good SAT prep should be available to everyone and I try to live through that phil ... read more
