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

Internationally published scientist (USA, France, Denmark) in the fields of neurobiology, muscle gene expression, high altitude physiology, diabetes and developmental biology. Instructor in 3D Animation, Forensic Animation, Character Animation, Graphic Art. We strongly believe that 3D animation and interactive tutorials help convert complex subject matter into easy-to-understand visuals. We have produced educational content for over 14 years - both to secondary and professional individuals and organizations. Our educational work has appeared on PBS, CNN, Nat Geo and several other educational venues. I use animation and interactive application to help convey complex scientific and technical subject matter.

I have had a variety of experiences in education from middle school through high school. I primarily have taught high school biology and aquatic science; however, through all my years as an educator, I have been heavily involved in tutoring reading and math. I spent three years as a special education teacher's aide, working directly with all levels of mainstreamed special ed students in a variety of classroom settings. Recently, I worked in a Communities-In-Schools fifth grade after-school tutoring program in math, reading and science. I get along well with all types of students and feel that building a good rapport is the key to successful tutoring. As a high school drop-out, who later achieved a college degree, I have the ability to connect with students who often struggle in a mainstream classroom setting. I have experience dealing with students of all ages. I am a firm believer

Although each child has his or her own style of learning, I believe in bringing out their highest potential by feeding them with the kind of construcive criticism and positive reinforcement that motivates every young mind. I am patient, respectful and warm. My hope as a tutor is to help students learn more easily by providing them with essential tools they will be able to use for the rest of their lives. In my 20 + years as a student, I have become convinced that a great teacher is essential to bolstering confidence, passion and motivation to learn. I intend to inspire all three. Only four years after immigrating from Belgium to the US, self motivated success and ambition allowed me to graduate Valedictorian of my high school class. I was offered a full ride scholarship to UC Berkeley, the #1 public university in the nation. I was pleased with my accomplishments and proceeded to keep fol

I have a bachelor's degree in physics, chemistry, and mathematics, and a master's degree in physics from the topmost research institution of my country. I also have five years of research experience post-MS. This has given me a deep understanding of not only science and math that I studied as part of my curriculum, but also of interdisciplinary areas like biophysics. English being part of the curriculum right from kindergarten, I am very comfortable in communicating in that language. This along with extensive exposure to the English media has given me a feel for the language which is at par with a native speaker of English. All these have enabled me to successfully tutor innumerable students for the past eleven years in the fields of science and math. More than anything else teaching is something that I did as a hobby and a challenge. Having been a tutor since my undergrad days, I

I enjoy sharing my knowledge with others, especially children to whom I provide exposure and enthusiasm of learning and understanding, so that they not only understand what they need to know, but can discover that they want to know more and can find the information themselves. Because I continue to read books and search the internet to satisfy my own thirst for knowledge, I know where the resources are for my students. Each child wants to learn—it is a survival instinct; but each child is different and will learn in different ways. I have the patience and the creativity to find the most effective teaching method for the child’s academic success. And most of all, I believe learning is fun. Excellence in education and curiosity in the natural world, instilled in me since elementary school, has driven me to be an “A” student through my college education. The curriculums in premedical s

My teaching style is highly influenced by the type of student that I teach. As a teacher of deaf students, my teaching must be very visual and hands-on. I find this lends itself well to teaching students who might be struggling in a regular classroom environment as well. I always begin by activating any prior knowledge a student might have in a given area, then establishing the goals that need to be met, engaging the child with relevant activities, and going from guided instruction to independent practice. Since beginning college in 1994, I have been involved with teaching and/or tutoring students, hearing and deaf. My experience teaching ranges from preschool to high school, typically developing children to those with disabilities, from impoverished and affluent areas. My tutoring has been both with a nationwide tutoring chain, as well as with a privately owned company. I have tut
