Earth Science Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Searchlight, NV

I have been teaching environmental science for 18 years. I have a passion for this subject and keep current on new findings and research. My teaching style is very practical. What do we need to do to get the job done and how can we relate this to real world examples. I believe everyone is capable and learns in different ways. The key to success is finding what clicks with each student. I have a Master's Degree in Applied (Environmental) Microbiology and have been an adjunct faculty member at a local community college for 18 years in the physical science department. I began teaching as an undergraduate. I am also a research scientist and have been working in the environmental field for two decades.

I have a completely hands on approach to teaching. I work with the student to see what it is they understand and what they do not. From there we work through the different areas until the student fully understands what they are missing. This allows for the student to feel as though they have a sense of accomplishment. I have tutored for many years. I first started tutoring in High School, then while I was in College and lately for the neighborhood children. I have brought younger children up to speed in reading (k-5). I have worked with children in Middle School and High School with their math work. I have tutored pre-algebra and algebra.

My teaching style is progressive. I believe education should be entertaining, however not entertainment. I enjoy challenging my students, however to do this effectively it is important that they remain engaged. One of the ways in which I do this is to encourage students to think creatively. Creativity is the key to success with education. Not only does it foster confidence and positive self-esteem, creativity keeps the brain on its toes, so to speak, by continually challenging students’ abilities and forcing students to expand beyond their academic comfort zone. Teaching students to develop new ways to solve problems generates the confidence needed to succeed not only in school but also in life. My interest in becoming a tutor stems from my life long passion for teaching and learning. Throughout the past eight years, I have focused my efforts on soaking up my education and research exper

I have always greatly enjoyed my own educational experience. That has always helped fuel my passion for assisting others in their educations. Though I enjoy working with children, much of my tutoring experiences has been at the college level. I also learned how to present almost any subject in several different ways, in order to be most effective in my tutoring. I have a very broad education. Before entering UCI, I attended Cerritos College in Norwalk, CA. There I took many hours of classes in the humanities as well as two years of calculus and differential equations. Thus I have wide ranging experience in writing/critiquing and preparing lab reports, grant proposals, and scientific journal articles. I have also helped pre-med students prepare various letters and documents for applying to medical schools.

My professional experience and educational experience have been intertwined for many years. As a laboratory technician, I not only learned how important accuracy and precision are when performing analyses, but I also learned how truly interesting science could be. That intrigue led me to supplementing my chemistry education with biological courses and changing my professional path to pharmaceutical research. Inherent in research, are aspects of imagination and novelty. Although oral and written communication skills are important in science, I am increasingly improving my communication skills as a substitute teacher and as a law school student. I love children and I love being able to share my love of learning with them. Children want to learn and there is nothing better than seeing a child’s face light up when they “get it.” Even though I have science degrees, I have never found m
