Chemistry/Science Tutor in Lehigh Valley Area

I have more than 8 years of tutoring experience in chemistry/basic science at the college level. I can help with methods to study for test, work on course material, and develop a deeper understanding of the course material. I currently work in the chemical industry which helps me apply the material the student is learning to real-life research and development of products. I recieved my PhD in physical chemistry from Penn State University and tutored my entire time there.
I try to use real world applications related to the student's area of interest to make the material stick in the student's head rather than the ineffective method of brute memorization.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and working with students. My teaching style most closely aligns with the demonstrator style. I show my students how to properly do a task or work through a problem and then I'll help them master the task or problem solution. It's important that my students can independently solve similar problems by using and adapting demonstrated methods. My teaching is performed with patience, persistence, and compassion. I am very easy going.
As a Lehigh University graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I earned a BS degree in Computer Science and have worked as a software engineer and tutor. Some of my mathematical skills include algebra, geometry, trigonometry, calculus, probability & statics, discreet math, and differential equations. I am an excellent computer programmer, have a good understanding of physics, and I learned to wri ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Since each child learns differently and has a unique way of understanding information, I have used many modalities in the course of my teaching. Most recently, teaching young children with specified learning disabilities has taught me to try a variety of activities to facilitate learning. I have learned to be more patient, to take a greater amount of time in explaination and teaching, and to use more hands-on materials to aid in understanding of what is being taught.
As a Graduate in the field of Education, I have worked with a variety of students from daycare up to grade 8. I have also had the opportunity to teach children with specified learning disabilities, most common being Autism and ADHD. I have taught in a self-contained 1st grade classroom for 7 years then moved up to teaching 6th and 7th grade students in Reading, Math, and Language Arts who experienced difficulty learn ... read more

I love teaching and working with children. I love the joy that children get on their faces when they finally understand the concepts that they are trying to learn. I try to make learning fun by incorporating games into the educational process. The children have a better time focusing when learning is enjoyable.

A Little Bit About Me...

Having been in the sales field for over 17 years I understand that everyone learns differently. In order to be a successful teacher/tutor I believe you must first understand how someone processes information. After understanding that you can then move onto to teach that individual in the most appropriate way to maximize their learning. I also believe patience and perseverance are key to learning.
I started my undergraduate studies in medical technology and biology and later changed my major and graduated with a BS in business management. I further my education and have completed half of the requirements toward an MBA in pharmaceutical chemical studies. During the last 17 years I have been involved in pharmaceutical sales and sales management. In these roles I have had to mentor and teach representatives daily. I have also had to teach medical professionals technical informa ... read more

I believe that children learn best through continual interaction, repetition and positive re-enforcement. I enjoy teaching across all subject matter and believe that practice and hard work produces the best results. Every child is a unique individual with a history of different influences that developed their specific learning abilities. I believe an effective teacher will strive to discover those keys to unlock each students potential to exceed. All students can excel when provided with the correct learning tools and positive interactive secessions. I strive to always project a can-do attitude in order to bring out the best qualities and knowledge in each of my students.
Although I have just received my teaching certification in Elementary and Special Education, I have had experience in teaching a variety of elementary age students, including some with disabilities. I truly beli ... read more

Over the twelve years I attended college I acquired six degrees while maintaining high academic standards. I received a Master’s of Science Degree in Forensic Science, a Bachelors of Science in Biochemistry, a Bachelors of Arts in English, an Associates Degree in Liberal Arts, General Studies and Education. I have a strong and eclectic background in a variety of subjects including a strong background math and science. I have the experience of both teaching and tutoring students.

More About This Tutor...

At the start of my college career, I began tutoring for Calculus. I received an offer from a Professor at Lafayette who had heard about me. She and her husband had two children who were accellerated two years above their classmates. I tutored both children once or twice a week in both of their respective mathematics courses as well.
I love working with people, especially children. I have been a Crew Trainer at each job I've had because of my ability to relate, connect and teach others. I am very patient and easy-going. One thing I like to identify is my learner's personality so that way I may cater my teaching style to that of his/her needs. Connecting with the individual and making them feel as thought they can do, and keeping this attitude, is key to helping the student grow. Having a positive academic effect on the students' lives is what I strive to achieve.

I always begin a class with in upbeat, fun atmosphere. I sometimes have powerful, familiar music playing when my students walk into the classroom. (Other students walking by in the hall frequently stop by to see what's going on!) I have a collection of toys and noisemakers that I use in the classroom. My classroom is visually dynamic and inviting. My goal is for my students to enter to learn with smiles on their faces, and anticipation for learning something fascinating. I love to lead them to daily "Aha" moments of discovery. My sense of humor and use of cartoons maintains an involvement high. I strategize with my kids to examine the many different ways to learn, in appreciation of their various learning styles. My students are empowered to question and learn more than required. By building their trust in me, and knowing that I sincerely love being with them, true learning hap ... read more

I Studied chemistry at the University of Wyoming. During my years there I helped tutor many friends and friends of friends in the subjects of Chemistry, Math and Physics. Also, I worked as a lifeguard and used my skills to become a head lifeguard for a summer at a girl scout camp. In charge of the lake shore, I instructed paddling and canoeing. I want to pursue a career in teaching chemistry because I believe in making a positive impact on young adults through education in science that can be applied to their lives.
I learn visually and like to teach that way. I believe there is a great deal of concepts and memorization in Chemistry. I am not able to memorize all of the subject and would not ask a student to. Instead, explanation and demonstration of the concept, followed by memorization of the rule grants a greater understanding. The rule can then be applied to other areas ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I earned my BS in physics and spent over a year working on medical device research. As an undergraduate at the University of Pittsburgh I spent some time in the Physics Undergraduate Lab helping students in the introductory courses. I also spent time as a Team Leader for Mission Acceptance, a program that pairs successful college students with local high school students and provides mentoring in the college selection and admissions process. These experiences allowed me to learn my audience and assess their needs and also understand the mentality of high school students.
I loved working with the students in the Mission Acceptance program. I worked as a team leader, so I had the opportunity to work with a group of fellow mentors as well as students, which provided me experience with a variety of different students. I learned that each student has his or her own path to understanding ... read more
