Genetics Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Severance, CO

Would prefer to work on individual basis to determine strengths and weaknesses. Will provide better explanation of most concepts. I've studied both engineering and biochemistry in pursuing my degree (biochemistry). My experience and knowledge in chemistry, organic chemistry, biochemistry, and molecular genetics was adequate enough for A's in all of these classes. I am experienced in tutoring friends in these subjects and will provide clear and generalized descriptions to every topic for better comprehension.

My style of teaching includes visual explanation (white board or chalk board), oral discussion, and hands-on manipulation when ever possible. I try to use as many teaching styles as possible as not all students learn via the same means. My style is also fexible based on the student I am instructing (age or handicaps). I believe the best way to teach science is to make it a fun and inquisitive experience. I hold a BS and MS in Biology. I started to tutor college student while an undergraduate at Mesa State College.I was awarded the GK-12 Fellowship for two years while at the University of Northern Colorado. This fellowship placed me in k-12 classrooms to aid in teaching sciene. During that time I taught kindergarten, second grade, 8th grade, and 9th - 12th grades.Later I was awarded the GAANN Fellowship and continued to teach colleged level Biology. I have experience in classroom setting,

I have taught straight skills based lessons, created thematic units that take you across the globe and brought students out into the world to explore problems and challenges like professionals. You tell me how you learn best and I will adapt to fit your needs. From a specialized curriculum to simply walking you through some challenging problems on a homework assignment. I am what you need. After graduating with a degree in Chemistry Education I went off to teach. Six years of professional teaching experience later there are few teaching challenges that I have come up against and not found a working solution to. Native tribes learning math and science, migrant children studying Earth Science, an adult looking for help with some chemistry problems, or an Expeditionary Learning student looking to tackle real world problems; whatever your background or needs I can help.

I love helping others learn and get through tough subjects. I loved homework all throughout school and would love a chance to be able to help others with theirs. I am very patient and want them to figure things out for themselves with my help. I will not simply tell them the answers. I graduated high school in the International Baccalaureate program with a 4.5 gpa and 30 college credits. I then went on to the University of Colorado starting out as a sophomore. I graduated 3 years later with a degree in Integrative Physiology. I have an extensive background in science and math. While at CU I was able to tutor children through a program called Reading Buddies where I would meet every week with them every week and read to them in English. Most of the children were mostly Spanish speaking and I would teach them English. Also throughout college I would meet and help others through various sci

Teaching children takes patience and creativity. Each child is different in their attention span and interests. Making each subject important and interesting is one place to start. It is crucial to never let a child give up, and not to give up on them yourself. My goal in teaching is to determine which way the child learns, for example a visual learning may need to draw out spelling words, where an audible learner needs to recite them. I love to find new ways to relate what they are learning with life outside of school and in this way show them how important the subject is. I do believe that each child can learn, but sometimes not understanding a subject is like building a wall on a road. A tutor's job is to break down the wall and make sure that the child knows how to keep the roads clear. My degrees have taken me places that I never thought they would. I was excited to teach Engl

I am passionate about helping students reach their academic goals. Through my own development of study skills through my education, I believe my methods will give students the confidence and grades they want and need to bring their academic and career aspirations to fruition. I know how overwhelming school and studies can be when one does not know how to properly prepare themselves for examinations, presentations, and standardized tests, and I will work with students to overcome the stress of these studies in order to really understand the material and be confident in pursuing their goals. Through the completion of my Biological Sciences major, I became well-versed in a variety of subjects, ranging from biology and chemistry to calculus, statistics, and public speaking. I was able to hone in on a range of study skills that have proven to be successful for all age groups. I have led s

I have always loved helping others. In college I tutored 2 seperate high school students in chemistry and one in algebra, for a total of about 2 yrs experience. In college I also participated in "Students teaching AIDS to Students". I volunteered at a preschool in Costa Rica where I taught sanitation and health. I have traveled to Africa multiple times to volunteer and conduct research. I am very experienced in the fields of science and math and love passing this knowledge on to others. I plan on using my PhD to educate students in Africa about health and science I believe the most effective way to learn is through self discovery of the concepts. This should be done in a very positive environment in which the student is encouraged and motivated to fully understand the material. I don't believe in memorization, but understanding.

I think that learning is subjective. Every person will have the opportunity to learn if they have an instructor that can meet their needs. I work well with children, young adults, and adults. I am patient and attentive. I believe that asking questions is the best way to find and address gaps in understanding and facilitate teaching the appropriate material. As the graduate of a difficult field of science, I spent a great deal of time studying and developing better methods for studying. I have become very knowledgeable in science and applied science through my degree field. I have also spent much time reading and writing scientific articles, which has made me proficient in English, general literacy, and writing. Throughout my college career, I have been tutoring and leading study sessions in science.

I am a Colorado State University graduate with my major in Natural Sciences as well as a completed Initial Teacher License. I have not only an extensive understanding of science but I also know how to specifically teach science. I greatly enjoy helping others learn and I had a tutoring position last spring at a local high school (Fossil Ridge). I love to work with children and adults. I feel that the best way for my students learn is for them to get hands on experience whether that be guided problem solving or actual lab work. I think that through this way my students reach their greatest potential.

My teaching style is a mixture of many elements. The first thing I do is to make students enthusiastic about their studies. To give subtle motivation and build interest, I make the topic applicable to a person’s life. The next step is to work on confidence. You have to help students see that it is possible to overcome personal difficulties with specific subjects. To do this, I focus on each learner’s strengths and break topics down into manageable parts. I ask the questions that will direct each student to make connections on their own. As frustration is an inevitable part of learning for struggling students, I always remain flexible and ready to try a new tactic when necessary. As a teacher’s assistant for photography in high school, I realized that I had a natural aptitude for teaching and breaking subjects down into manageable parts. In college, I was the person that other stud

I feel very fortunate having had the opportunity to educate myself without any regard on obstacles that so many other children may face. Therefore I also feel obligated to share my knowledge with those who might be interested or in need of a hand. Learning is very individual; tutoring should follow the learning style that best suites the student. Yet the bottom line, I believe, is understanding the concept, creation of so called "ahaa"-moment when all the pieces fall in place. I emphasize repetition for memory building, discussion sessions to estimate the degree of understanding, and finally an independent piece of work to demonstrate the depth of understanding, as well as to build up the student's self esteem. I received my education K through high school in Finland, and continued with university- and graduate-level studies in Sweden. The emphasis was on life sciences with molecular ne

In addition to being a substitute teacher for the Thompson School District, I homeschooled my own eight children for over nine years. During that time, I taught numerous homeschool group classes, including biology, cooking and english. I work well with children. As the mother of eight, I have experience with all ages, and a variety of learning styles. I try to discover each childs strengths and play to those, encouraging individual learning styles.

I am new to tutoring, but not to teaching. In college, whether I was studying differential equations or the intricacies of cellular processes, I took the time to support my classmates and explain difficult concepts. When I was called to service, I spent four years in the Air Force, lecturing, mentoring, and teaching my fellow servicemembers, breaking down highly technical information and helping them succeed. While I find Math and Science fields fascinating, I love the English language and I'm looking forward to helping students improve their writing skills as well. My goal is to help my students truly understand the material and how it connects to both other fields of study and their own life. This comprehensive approach reduces test-taking anxiety and improves confidence, giving the student the tools he or she needs to move forward in their education. I tend to ask the student que
