Organic Chemistry Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Versailles, OH

For a period of five years, I offered tutoring services to students at the University of Chapel Hill, Duke University, and North Carolina State University. My ability comes from experience...I was not entirely prepared for college when I started, and had to work much harder to successfully complete my degrees. I believe that this has given me a great insight into what students really need, especially as schools continue to do a less than perfect job of preparing students for the future. The goal of my approach is to enable students to have a level of ownership in learning concepts and ideas. Merely teaching the idea is not enough, and that "Oh, I see" moment must occur to embed the idea for long-term growth. I enjoy relating the ideas and facts to real world examples that almost anyone can grasp.

I take the necessary time to learn the behavior and learning ability of the child in order to customize a teaching style that will be most beneficial. I believe that the most effective type of relationship between a teacher and a student is friendship to reduce any anxieties that may otherwise hinder the child’s progress. I am calm, well mannered, kind and devoted to the success of others. Teachers should be firm but not intimidating to the child. The learning environment should be safe, stress free and comfortable and above all positive. I have a strong belief that since children will be leading future generations then they need the proper skills to be able to solve tomorrow’s problems. Throughout my high school career I have been devoted to academic success of my fellow classmates as well as my self. I continued this attitude in the accomplishment of achieving a BS degree in biology. A

In my 6 years of teaching experience I’ve come to find out that there is no such thing as a “stupid question.” Each child or adult has a specific way of learning according to their own character. That’s the reason some are faster to learn mathematical concepts while others are faster in literary concepts. I believe in going slow and asking my students to explain what they’ve learned in their own words. If they can do this easily it means they have mastered the concepts. I usually encourage pre-reading before tutoring sessions. A student who has read the chapter ahead will absorb information more easily than one who has not read ahead. I obtained a high honors degree (Magna Cum Laude) in Biology, with a minor in Chemistry in 2005. Due to an outstanding GPA (3.74/4.00), I began to teach even as an undergraduate student. I was hired by the Athletics Department to help my fellow students obt

I believe that all students have the right to a quality education and deserve opportunities to reach their maximum academic potential before graduating high school. While some students may reach their potential in a school environment alone, other students need extra support to meet their individual needs. Throughout my teaching and tutoring experiences I have made it a priority to customize learning plans in order to fit the individual needs of students. As a tutor, I look forward to working one-on-one with a student to encourage the student, build upon their knowledge level and academic skills, and to heighten his/her confidence as a learner. During the past four years, I have tutored students in all subjects. During my collegiate years at Bucknell University, I majored in Biology and minored in Education and Philosophy. I also spent a few hours a week tutoring students of all grade

I have always felt that tutoring should offer a much more laid-back approach at getting concepts across to students. This is a chance to learn material in an environment that doesn't bear the pressures and stresses of the classroom and achieving a certain grade. Also as opposed to a classroom, I feel that the student should have the floor. This is their time to ask questions and talk through problems. When doing problems, I usually like to ask questions that gradually lead up to the answer and establish the concepts to get to the solution. Finally, I like tutoring experiences to be fun and am not afraid to lighten the mood with occasional jokes, as it seems that this atomosphere makes students more open and excited to learn the given material. Throughout my undergraduate studies at the University of Illinois, I developed a passion for teaching and helping others achieve the academic

I am currently a graduating senior at Wilberforce University. When that day comes, I will have a BS in Biology. This degree has allowed me to gain hands on experience within different fields of study along with enhancing my kowledge of the biological sciences and all that it embodies. Also with Spanish, I have not had the experience of teaching but I have been learning the Spanish language for the last ten years (since the sixth grade). I can read as well as write the language and hold a descent conversation. I have previously worked as a tutor/mentor in this field of study for high school graduates. This particular job was to help fulfill a semester worth of requirements in 8 weeks. I enjoy teaching children of all ages, but I prefer to teach children within the middle school and high school ages. I feel that those times are critical to their learning and retention of information. I ap

My degree in physics has equipped me with mathematical, scientific and analytical knowledge. This enables me to comfortably tutor students in many topics within math and science fields. My first teaching experience took place at Camp Powhatan, a summer camp for Boy Scouts, where I was an instructor for two summers. There I taught young Boy Scouts (ages 11 to 18) the fundamentals of swimming, lifesaving, canoeing, pioneering, cooking, and orienteering. I believe students learn better when the instructor makes it clear where a topic falls within the over-arching themes of the class. Students are then better able place new techniques and knowledge in the context of whatever discipline or field is being taught. Classroom lectures and discussion should always be complemented by homework, tests, and quizzes. In fact it is in homework that the bulk of learning occurs. Just as professional athle

I have more than 15 years of first-rate, proven, high-quality teaching experience at the college level, as well as a very successful history of helping students out in one-on-one tutoring experience (including online homework help). I have taught courses ranging from Chemistry, Math, French, etc. to students of various backgrounds, and I have always managed, without fail, to meet them where they are and help them until they 'get it' and are more than satisfied with my help. As a rule, I just don't give out answers; I will, however, patiently and warmly work with the student until s/he "gets it", until s/he ends up with a smile of satisfaction on his/her face. To this end I will: a. try to understand what the student knows already b. try to understand what s/he is struggling with c. take him/her from there and work with him/her until s/he gets it.

In my time as a student, I have experienced both extremely poor teaching styles and teaching styles that caused the learning process to be a literal joy to undertake. Upon consideration, I realized that, although some students like some teachers better than others, the truly magnificent teachers had several key features. These teachers were amicable and approachable, they made learning fun, and their classrooms were run with discipline and order. I incorporate all these aspects into my teaching style, striving to make my help a pleasure to receive. With this pleasure, comes the desire to learn; and with this desire to learn, the education process is made a little smoother for my students. Ever since I can remember I have enjoyed helping others to learn. There is something indescribably fulfilling in imparting knowledge to others. During my time in college I earned a BS in Biology with

I love teaching and working with others, especially children. I first like to start with finding out where the child is confused by going over and re-teaching past assignments that were misunderstood. I like to go over past tests and make sure they understand what they missed and teach them the correct answer. I believe that this is very important so they can grasp future material. I will then try many different teaching styles to either find what works best for the particular child or to keep things interesting and keep the child wanting to learn. Nothing is too hard for any child it is just how the material is presented and the fact that someone is taking one on one time with your child to make sure they understand before moving to the next topic. In high school I tutored middle school and elemetary school aged children in reading, math, and chemistry. In college I tutored other peers
