www.logicstudies.com
We see education as a meeting of minds, where every participant is on the same level. While a tutor may well have more knowledge of a subject than the student, learning is a communicative and collaborative process; the transmission of ideas can only happen when we acknowledge we each have something to learn from one another. Part of what makes Logic Studies so successful and distinctive is that we refuse to fall into the prescribed teacher-student dynamic. Never condescending and demonstrating mutual respect, the tutors at Logic Studies treat their students as peers, or coequals .

I enjoy tutoring, especially with motivated people. I have much experience in translating difficult academic problems to meaningful skills. I still don't have my times tables memorized but can demonstrate difficult fractions and imaginary numbers to others. My experience in laboratory, design and classroom settings allows me to illustrate complex concepts meaningfully. I enjoy working one-on-one to help facilitate deeper understanding. I would consider working with special needs children or those with learning disabilities.
I have had experience in tutoring mathematics at local community colleges. I have also tutored chemistry, physics and many medical subjects informally. I have finished classwork in a medical program and have assisted with many classes, mostly in physiology related courses.

Currently, I am a part time chemistry instructor at Clark college and Portland Community College. During the past seven years, I have tutored chemistry to a diversified students ranging from high school chemistry to pre-med students. I recently obtained my MS degree in chemistry. Most of my students succeed in chemistry.
I love teaching chemistry. I have a unique way of teaching chemistry by explaining the basic concepts of chemistry. My first step is to make the student get fascinated in chemistry. I make students to do lot of problems. I strive to make a difference in all my students opinion about chemistry-it is a difficult topic. After few classes, most of my student think that chemistry is an easy fascinating subject.

I am very flexible in my teaching style, and delivery of information. Some students know exactly how they learn, while others are unsure. I will always adapt to an individuals learning style. Although it is sometimes difficult to determine how a student learns best, it is important to recognize these differences among individuals. It is my goal to make sure that each student leaves a tutor session feeling better than when they first arrived. This is often accomplished by personalizing the tutor sessions.
As a biochemistry undergraduate student, I was selected to be an organic chemistry workshop leader. As a workshop leader, I meet with students on a weekly basis to complete difficult organic chemistry problems and answer any questions that they may have. In addition to the workshops, I was also asked to be a teaching assistant. As a teaching assistant, I work closely with professor ... read more

I love teaching and relating to people. I know from personal experience that one good teacher can change the way a student views an entire subject. I am easy-going, friendly, and patient. I believe that all students have great potential and should be given every opportunity to fulfill it.
Having graduated from a liberal arts university, I know that being well-rounded is very important in life. I graduated from Whitworth with a BS in Math and minors in Spanish and Computer Science, so I know what it is like to learn complex subjects. I have tutored my peers along with students younger and older than myself, as a mathematician and a Spanish speaker. I led a Spanish Live Lab for two years and informally tutored math for four. Also, I have a great deal of grammatical knowledge from writing research papers in math and computer science and Spanish.

More About This Tutor...

While a graduate and undergraduate student, I've had the opportunity to teach at the University of Georgia. I've taught a wide spectrum of classes and labs ranging from Physical Oceanography to Cell Biology. My tutoring experience has been concurrent with my teaching experience and has largely been for my own students. In addition, I've been responsible for grading and aiding in the writing of numerous undergraduate research reports.
As an educator, my responsibility is to ensure that my students not only learn the required information but also feel positive and invested in their subject. I am patient with my students and enjoy facilitating the learning processes. Each student is unique and I feel fortunate to have the opportunity to help my students fulfill their potential.

Each student has different ways to learn. Some students require a more visual approach while ohers prefer repetion through listening and writing. I try to find the best way to help students learn and retain information. I believe that with the right help, every student has the potential to achieve academic success.
I have an extensive experience in the field of tutoring. For the past eight years, I have work with students from age kindergarten to highschool. From one-on-one tutoring, small groups, to helping a class of more than 60 students. Therefore, I can recognize each student's ability and devised a studying plan to help them improve their weaknesses. With a Bachelor degree in Biology and Chemistry, I have a strong background in science and mathematics. Furthermore, I have taken many courses in Writing, English, and grammar.

My teaching style is best described as observational and flexible; students have very different "windows' that allow them to learn, especially with abstract subjects. As a teacher I have to observe what works best for a student and then deliver the information in a variety of ways to accommodate these different styles. This is in direct response to the "sink or swim" curriculum I encountered throughout my own academic career. One of the best ways I have found to observe each students learning style is by using a "guided inquiry" approach. Careful initial observation lets me see how to proceed; some students respond best to verbal lectures, some group discussion and some require written, auditory or experiential approaches. Time constraints are minimized by a smaller student to teacher ratio and in my experience tutoring or small group settings see the greatest benefit from my style. ... read more

I changed from being a registered pharmacist to teaching because I so enjoy seeing students learn, especially when they "get it". I had to be especially aware that online students require a different learning paradigm than on-campus F2F students. I would give as much time as needed to an interested student. Teaching online also involved ESL students, which required cross-cultural awareness.

My teaching philosophy is to combine clear objectives and relevant content with a playful approach that encourages interest, exploration and successful learning. For focused tutoring or one-on-one help, I like to use and work through examples. I also like to ask general questions and questions *almost* like those that are assigned. For example: Where do you think this type of chemistry is important? Considering this problem in your book, what happens to the system if this quantity if doubled? The intent is to go beyond rote memorization and try to get students engaged.
In graduate school, my teaching work included leading discussion and lab sections in organic and general chemistry. Duties included preparing and delivering presentations, review of class concepts and homework problems, and office hour help sessions to ensure student understanding and success passing tests.

I enjoy teaching. There is something about the educational process, transfer of knowledge to students, that I have always found satisfying. It has been my experience that learning is an active process rather than a passive one. Thus I have seldom “taught” students anything. Rather I have enabled the students to learn. My teaching and curriculum development experience provides me with an understanding of the needs of community colleges students. I therefore have tailored my teaching techniques to ensure the success of those students. By and large my teaching evaluations over the years show that students have appreciated my ability to explain difficult concepts and the interest I take in the progress of the students.
I have a PhD in Zoology from The Ohio State University and over the past 25 years I have taught at Columbus Technical Institute and Portland State University. ... read more

A major drawback in current teaching methods at schools and institutions is the absence of efforts to educate students, why they should learn things they are being taught. I try to understand the students need level of interest and proficiency prior to designing multimedia and multi methodology course or delivery methods filled with real world application and references to fill the students need. My classes and presentations are interactive, fact filled and simplistic in nature with stress on reasoning rather than accumulation of facts and information. I am looking to utilize my creative teaching methods, vast experience and innovative techniques to change a student’s perspective about what they are learning and why they have to learn.
