A Little Bit About Me...

Throughout my undergraduate years, I was recognized as an outstanding student and held the maximum number of teaching assistant positions every semester. I often met students in the library to hold tutoring groups, and I handed out my phone number in case someone needed my help anytime. I am currently working on my teachers certification, and my long term goal is to teach high school science. I have a passion for education and science, and I believe that my purpose for benefiting humankind is to train the future men and women of our country.
My preferred method of teaching is hands-on, through real experiments. Unfortunately, experiments cannot always be done, so I use lots of illustrations and age-appropriate analogies that are easy to relate to. Many times students are convinced that science is a subject too difficult to conquer, that they must just survive it, but science i ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style depends on the student and subject I'm dealing with. For the non-reading adults I started by teaching them letter recognition and basic sounds; moved on to simple words; then sentances. During my college class I would review the evening's lesson and goals, then have the students perform the exercise in the textbooks. During the practical exercise I made myself available to all the students and gave one-on-one instruction to those that needed it.
I taught all subjects for adult learners preparing for the GED tests through Region IX Education Services Center's Adult Education program for 4 years in the evenings. I also taught English as a Second Language to adults. I am an Adult reading tutor for adults who could not read. I taught mathematics, vocabulary and biology to high school graduates preparing to take the nursing entrance exam at Vernon College. ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I enjoy the satisfaction tutoring brings me, but the satisfaction comes when I am successful in conveying knowledge. I feel I am a successful tutor because I take the time to get to know the student and I immediately get work on the weaknesses and amplify their strengths. I believe every student has the ability to succeed, so I explain the important principles over and over through different media and methods, until the student understands. Over the years I have learnt that patience is a very important trait needed for a successful tutoring experience. Therefore, This has made me a better tutor.
I recently graduated University of Texas with a BA in biology. Becasuse of this I have a strong background in science. I have also been involved in biochemistry research, specifically trying to create immunocontraceptives for rodents. In order to be effective researcher it was necessary for ... read more
