Genetics Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Summitville, NY

Experienced and New York State Certified teacher. I have over 10 years experience teaching students in grades 1-12 and 5 years experience teaching adults. I also have extensive tutoring experience. I have an MA from Marist College as well as a BA from NYU. I have designed and taught SAT prep classes (verbal/writing portion) as well as developing curriculum integrating diverse domains of knowledge to create a broad, deep and flexible learning experience for students. I believe that competence and confidence are BOTH important in learning. Students bring their own knowledge and learning styles to the process. It is the teachers job not only to adapt instructional style to best support the learner, but also to help the student understand his or her own learning style and needs.

Very skilled in teaching a variety of learning styles across the different areas of the multiple levels of intelligences. I have taught in the education field since 1999. I am very fortunate to have had the privilege of working with a multitude of learners in a variety of environments. Early in my career I worked with adults that were mentally and physically challenged. I found this very rewarding and decided to pursue a degree in education, which lead me on my journey into the world of Special Education. I began working with children and young adolescents who had a variety of special needs and learning styles; I went on to specialized Autism and Special Education for K-12. After working with young children for many years I decided to branch out to work with young adolescents and adults pursuing their high school equivalency. Working with young adolescents and adults proved to be just as

Private Science Tutor from 2006-2009 I graduated with Masters in Biotechnology from Georgetown University in May 2013. I achieved a Bachelor’s of Technology in Biotechnology from Padmashree Dr. D. Y. Patil University, Mumbai, India in 2012. This course of study has given me deep insight into the realm of biological sciences and laid a strong academic foundation. I am motivated, task-oriented, and efficient, and my knowledge of the Biotechnology industry is comprehensive and current. During my time as Research Intern at Georgetown Lombardi Cancer Center, I worked directly under my Principal Investigator, Dr. Jan Blancato and carried out various cytogenetic techniques such as Tissue FISH and Metaphase Chromosome Preparation. I also trained in the operation of Fluorescence Microscopy, Confocal Microscopy and standard laboratory equipment. My enthusiasm and commitment to excellence have

I believe in teaching the concept from the bottom up. I explain and make sure the student understands the basic concepts first before advancing forward. I also like to bring in real world applications to the concept to help the student better absorb the material. Deep foundation in the Biological Sciences. Graduated Magna Cum Laude from New Jersey Institute of Technology with a Bachelors in Biology (3.84 GPA). Will be attending medical school at Albert Einstein College of Medicine this upcoming fall. I have tutored many children in secondary schools and my peers in college for over three years.

I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Biology from the State University of New York at SUNY New Paltz and I have matriculated into the Master of Arts in Biology program at the same university. As a result of my many research and laboratory reports I have excellent writing and typing skills and have completed many writing assignments including numerous essays in various fields as a requirement of completing my Bachelor of Science degree. Because I have coursework at the graduate level in the field of biology, I have taught at the college level and will continue to do so next semester, so I have roughly 1 year of experience teaching students. I have several years experience working with children and adults in the education field. The students I have taught at the college level ranged from late teens to early 30s. As I have worked with such a wide range of ages I am familiar with

Teaching is a skill that I have mastered and I have been successful at finding a fun way of getting students to learn. I like to introduce activities that are practical to the subject so the student understands the concept and therefore have a better understanding of the topic being covered. I am available to help anyone who needs help in finding academic success. I am patient, considerate and will use all available resources to get the student empowered and confident in achieving success in the learning process. I am a trained Science Teacher specializing in Biology, Chemistry and Physics. I have over twelve years of High School teaching experience where I prepared students for external exams in Chemistry, Physics and Biology in my native country of Jamaica. The success rate was over 90%. I have tutored both adults (preparing for their GED and LPN exams in Math and English) and yo

As a current undergraduate chemistry and honors student at Arcadia University, I was recommended to become a tutor from several of my teachers my first year in college. I became a certified CRLA tutor and started tutoring my sophomore year of college; I've been tutoring ever since. I tutor chemistry, biology, math (beginner algebra, statistics, calculus I and II), and calculus based physics. I love working with students and teaching them something new. The best feeling is when someone understands a concept that they didn't before; when something "clicks" for a student, I feel as if my job as a tutor was done. I'm a very determined, persistent, caring, and patient person; all of these characteristics have helped me become a great tutor.

My undergraduate coursework in chemistry began under an “education track” to qualify me to teach post-secondary education. During that time, I was exposed to many theories on learning and was required to communicate complex situations to new learners. As my focus in science grew towards a career in science, I was employed by both the chemistry department and the university to tutor in the areas of math and science. Upon entering graduate school, I continued to serve as a tutor as well as teaching two sections of undergraduate general chemistry laboratories. I was successful in making the chemistry both fun and approachable, despite the apprehension new students feel towards the subject. My teaching style can be described as realistic. I try to be reasonable when setting expectations for students to grasp new material. Additionally, especially in the areas of math and science, I try

I earned my MA degree in Biology from Villanova University in December 1997. For the next two years I earned my living by tutoring students in biology and math as a side business until I landed a research position at Princeton University in 1999. Since then I have been doing laboratory research in the pharmaceutical industry. My extensive background in Biology has allowed me to learn several aspects in the field that I would not have learned in the classroom. Although my tutoring was not through official channels, I feel that my experience taught me that each student is different and responds to different types of approaches of learning. For example, some people learn best by remembering acronyms, while others are better at visualization. The job of a good tutor is to figure out which way works best for their student and proceed from there. My approach to tutoring is to first ma
