More About This Tutor...

I have always enjoyed teaching. When i was in college I used to teach my juniors in subjects that they needed help in. My notes in college became very popular and are still being used today. I have taught at University of DC to a group of students for which I received very positive feedback. I have a done quite a few seminars in and out of college. I love to teach and enjoy the opportunity to pass on the information to others.
I make sure that every topic that i go over is clearly understood. A clear sense of understanding can make any "boring" subject more interesting and fun to learn. I like to start with the basics of a subject and move into detail as required. If more time is needed on any one topic I am willing to go over it as many times as the student wants.

More About This Tutor...

I am an evolutionary biologist and paleontologist who has been active in the field for over a decade. I have been a professor of college-level biology, paleontology, and anatomy for 8 years on top of 5 years assistant teaching geology courses during my graduate education. I have a broad, interdisciplinary background, which is a result of my broad curiosity about the scientific exploration of all aspects of the natural world. I have experience teaching classes as large as 400 students and as small as 4, though most of my experience has been in the 12-24 student range. I have had the opportunity to teach at several different types of schools, including Ivy League and small liberal arts colleges, where I have had a lot of exposure to pedagogical methods that encourage permanent understanding and maintain interest.

A Little Bit About Me...

Throughout many years of tutoring my peers and underclassmen, I have obtained several techniques to help students study effectively. Depend on each individual student and their study habit; I can adjust a specific agenda and curriculum to help strengthen their weakness and excel their strength. I am very patient and fun to be around. For me learning is a combination of fun and hard work. I tend to make the material easier to understand and to captivate their interest in the subject.
I’ve graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Biology in 2009. My Biology coursework has centered on theory, problem solving and critical thinking. I have taken multiple Biology, Chemistry, Physic, Math and Psychology classes which have enabled me to improve my knowledge and understanding of the subject. I have also taken various computer skills, writing, and test taking classes that can prepare s ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a visual and hands on teaching style. I do believe that students learn better by doing labs and seeing demonstrations, not by just hearing lectures. My students thoroughly enjoy my demonstrations and labs. My goal is to do whatever it takes to ensure that my students are working to their maximum potential.
I have 5 years experience as a Biology, Chemistry, and now, a Physical Science teacher on the high school and middle school levels. I have gained a valuable understanding about the needs of our young people. I believe that all students are capable of learning anything, some just have different learning styles. I have met with different students and tried (quite successfully) to gear my lessons to the needs of all students. In my classes, it is my goal to make sure that every student understands the lessons.

My academic experience has shaped me into a hardworking and ambitious student. As a pre-medical student, I double majored in Psychology and Middle Eastern Studies which has allowed me to establish a diverse background in the sciences and humanities. Moreover, I have gained valuable writing and analytical skills. As a native Arabic speaker, I am able to read, write, and speak the Arabic language fluently. In the past, I have tutored students in Arabic, Biology, Psychology, Mathematics, and English.
As a tutor, I believe that one needs to be patient, understanding, and persistent. In addition, it is important that a tutor caters to the student's style of learning. I am creative and willing to try different teaching methods with students. I believe that each student has an individual and unique way of learning and it is up to the tutor to invest time in learning students' strengths an ... read more

More About This Tutor...

From second semester freshman year I have tutored mathematics and chemistry. First it was at the campus learning center at Westminster College, then I went on to pursue a graduate degree in chemistry at Penn State University where I found that I like to teach more than I wanted to be a PhD Chemist, I was a teaching assistant for both Physical Chemistry Lab and General Chemistry for non-majors. It was this teaching experience that led me to tutor for the PSU Ag Science department in both chemistry and mathematics. I have also volunteer tutored at State College High School.
I try to put the difficult concepts of mathematics and chemistry into words and experiences that the student can understand. In the words of one of my tutees I teach "Barney-Style". In other words I talk in words they can understand whether I'm tutoring a 4th grader or a college student. It is my goal to mak ... read more

I believe educators, teachers, counselors, principals are the providers, directors, and managers of complex systems of care. In other words, they are the backbone of the educational industry. While working as an Assistant Director of Education, I have learned to be more effective as a teacher. I have been teaching for past seven years and I have taught all age groups and subjects like, English, Math, Sciences, test preps, etc. My degree in Biology has helped me in my analytical skills and communication ability.

My primary strengths as a tutor and teacher lie in my complete understanding of the science material giving me an ability to simplify it in different ways to help others to understand. I have always learned best by working to fully grasp the logic and ideas behind each concept or topic, which I carry on to my students. When one understands the material there is less need for memorization, especially in the sciences where concepts build upon one another. Additionally, this is important to test taking conditions, enabling the student to competently tackle a broader range of potential questions and exam formats. I also use many different methods in my own learning and in teaching others, enabling flexibility in tutoring to best fit each individual’s learning style.
I began tutoring in high school, mostly focusing in math subjects including algebra, geometry and calculus. I continu ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Teaching is probably my favorite part of my job! I am passionate about science and love to share this interest with others. I am extremely patient and very hard working. One of my strengths is that I can tell whether or not somebody understands the information and can explain things as many different ways as needed until it "clicks." I am upbeat, friendly, and get along with virtually everyone I meet.
I hold a BS in Cell Biology and Molecular Genetics from the University of Maryland, College Park and a MS in Genetics from the University of Maryland School of Medicine. I work in a large University Hospital seeing patients with genetic issues. My work involves taking complex scientific information and breaking it down so that it is easy to understand. I also spend time lecturing to medical students and residents. So basically, I am a science person with excellent people skills ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have been teaching Anatomy and Physiology at Washington Adventist University, Takoma Park, MD for the past year after graduating with a masters degree from Andrews University, MI. I have a bachelors degree in Biology with a minor in mathematics. I have been teaching and tutoring since my freshman year in college. My strength is science/math which is also my passion.
Even though I've taught college students all my life, I actually love working with children as well. I am a very patient person, and I am also compassionate and easy to get along with. I believe as a teacher I am responsible to train my students in their fields to make them competitive and knowledgeable. I do not give up when I have difficult students, I try to learn their behavior instead and work with them. The world needs good educators to make a difference in the life of the student and others around.
