My comments on tutoring Marine Biology : Marine biology is one of my passions, I not only like reading about it, but I also maintain my own marine environment at home, filled from your average rock encrusted algae, to very complex coral morphology studies. if you want to understand Marine biology, without all the coplex terms that professors use to sound bright, I can teach you.

In my years of education, I found that some of the methods used for teaching these subjects were inadequately explained, therefore causing students not to truly understand how to apply mathematics and science in school and their every day life. I have learned how to tutor in these subjects from raising my own children, all of whom found these subjects to be hard until I showed them how to avoid the pitfalls of our educations system. All of my kids were A students and are now in college, none of them now have a hard time understanding the subjects and are excelling in their own lives.
I am a hands on type of a tutor, I start from the basics and work my way up to their current subjects, so that they can build on a good foundation, understanding the basics is the most critical step to understanding the complexities of Algebra and above, and how the sciences start to get more complex ... read more

I have over 135 college credits in Science courses. I have presented research to a room of hundreds of biologist in professional scientific conventions to share and relate research techniques and findings. I have also presented to public audiences (taught) and do very well teaching one on one. Science is very easy to learn if you are able to relate to the student a mechanism or process that they can understand.
It depends on the student's learning ability and style.

A Little Bit About Me...

I aspire to be a tutor who is engaging with the student. Teaching AT the student is something I will not do. I will require my students to utilize their own critical thinking and writing to keep them actively engaged. Second, I will facilitate a stimulating, safe learning environment that will keep the students eager and comfortable about their participation. I view myself as being very personable and will encourage students to ask questions, because I know it can be difficult to ask sometimes. Lastly, I want to help students understand how education will prepare them for the future and assist them in planning their careers. I have been around the sciences want to inspire these kids with my love of the sciences!
I just graduated from Arizona State University with a BS in Biochemistry (Medicinal Chemistry) and received a minor in Biology. I have logged over 100 credit hours in ASU’ ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My teaching experience may be quite underdeveloped but is no way a reflection of my teaching ability. I have been a substitute instructional aide for 3 months and volunteer coaching track & field; These two endeavors have shown me the importance of versatility in teaching methods and the different learning faculty that children possess. I feel confident that I will be able to apply what I have learned to tutoring children or adolescents in basic math or English.
I have an amazing ability to create a strong rapport with children or young adults. I think even those reluctant to strive find it difficult to resist enjoying the act of learning when they have an affable tutor alongside them. I try and approach concepts from different perspectives to see which one the student responds to the most and then try and tailor my methods to their learning style. I try my hardest to try and help ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy tutoring because I am able to pass on the knowledge that I have learned over the years. This knowledge can help academic and self confidence problems linked the certain subjects. The key to successful tutoring is to link the "trouble course" to feelings of enjoyment. The path to linking the course depends on student personality and interests. The student will experience more motivation and interest once the subject is properly associated to enjoyment. This starts the foundation for increased learning and a way to bypass the “learning block”. Other keys involve patients and proper explanation of the subject, which are also very important.
Through the process of entering and attending dental school I attained a great knowledge of the sciences and chemistry subjects. I have also learned vast organizational skills, which I would like to pass on. I have also written many researc ... read more
