Nikkia G. - Suffolk, VA 23435 (37.9 mi) - Life Science Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I double-majored in biology in chemistry in undergrad, so the field of science and medicine is my first love and my strength. I have also received a Masters of Public Health Degree in Epidemiology, and have since completed my 2nd year of medical school. I have always had a strong affinity for math and english as well. I have a published thesis paper that was constructed and presented as required for my masters curriculum. I have been tutoring since I was in high school, and have tutored elementary to college level courses. I have a relaxed, stress-free teaching style, while staying on task and topic. I make sure the pupils really understand the material by breaking things down to the basics, and reviewing the foundations. After reviewing and application of the concepts, I have my students switch roles and "teach" me the material. I believe if you can explain the material to someone else,

Susan B - va beach, VA 23457 (31.6 mi) - Life Science Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I love teaching all children and I am very passionate about science. Teachers must become aware of student’s prior knowledge, as well as how to tap into that knowledge and build on it. Students learn in different ways, and therefore instruction should include a mixture of different activities. I believe that all students are capable of learning and have something to contribute. Teachers must strive to make education as enjoyable and beneficial as possible for all students. I believe that most students will learn enthusiastically if they are taught enthusiastically. During my years at the University of New Haven, I earned a BS in Biology and a MS in secondary education. During my undergraduate work, I worked with other biology students to form a laboratory class for students from a private school which had no laboratory facilities. I possess excellent communication skills both written an

Amy B - Chesapeake, VA 23322 (31.7 mi) - Life Science Tutor - $40.50/hr.
While at Virginia Tech, I dedicated much of my time to volunteering. Here I fell in love with serving others. During this time, one of the programs I volunteered for was an after-school teaching program. Here, I tutored elementary-aged children in english, science, and math. I enjoy helping others learn! I have two younger sisters myself, and I am currently coaching the eight year old's softball team. From this experience, I have learned to have patience and creativity when it comes to teaching. I break things down so they become fun and informative.

Anthony T - Chesapeke, VA 23320 (33.7 mi) - Life Science Tutor - $36.50/hr.
Over the past five years I have worked as a Teacher/Instructor both the the legal field and in the public school setting with students diagnosed as ED and LD as well as being displaced from the normal public school setting. Even though my academic degrees are in the legal field I have stayed current in areas of Reading and Math from Basic Algebra to Geometry. I believe that a student who lacks the basic fundamental skills in reading and mathematics will struggle to stay focused in class and continually be disruptive and ultimately stop attending school. My teaching style is consistently accommodating especially to these types of students. I like to show students that I am there for them and there isn't anything through my patience and sincerity they cannot learn.

Walter J - Chesapeake, VA 23320 (33.7 mi) - Life Science Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I am a very motivating person and tend to use humor as a method of teaching. I teach to and with the child and never down to him/her. I break large components into their simplest forms so that a child learns to take things one step at a time and not feel overwhelmed. I make the learning relevant to what the child is interested in or knows about so that he/she can be more engaged in the learning process. We set the goal-a reasonable one yet with high expectations and together we achieve it. For the past ten years, I have been teaching High School English.
I have taught grades 9-12 in Literature, Composition and Standards of Learning in preparation for the state exams. I have taught inclusion classes involving students with numerous learning styles and have always met and exceeded the expectations of their parents.

Paul A - Chesapeake, VA 23320 (35.7 mi) - Life Science Tutor - $42.50/hr.
I use a variety of teaching styles, i.e cooperative learning, learning centers, interactive learning, sight and tactile learning. The school system I am in emphasizes Differentiated Instruction. I believe I make a difference in student's lives both educationally and as a role model. My experience as a teacher began when I was in the U.S. Navy, I was an Financial and Department Training instructor. After retiring from the Navy I went to work in the school system as a security assistant. After one year I resigned and went to Norfolk State University and earned a Bachelor's Degree in Interdisciplinary Studies with a major concentration in Learning Disabled and a minor in Emotionally Disturbed.

Mridula P - Chesapeake, VA 23320 (35.8 mi) - Life Science Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I am a Masters Degree holder in Bioinformatics and our curriculum encompasses Biochemistry, Biotechnology, Cell Biology, Computer science, Immunology, Mathematics, Molecular Biology & Genetics, Proteomics, Statistics, Sequence Analysis and Structural Biology. In addition to this, my Bachelors Degree Course work also includes many of the above mentioned topics. I taught these subjects to Masters’ students for two and a half years while working as a full time Bioinformatics faculty from January 2006 to June 2008. Besides I have given home tuition in Mathematics and Science to many high school and college students. This academic background along with exposure to premier scientific institutions enabled me to improve my knowledge and skills. A good teacher encourages students to think and analyze and not to accept the information passively. With this objective in mind, I combine class room te

Larry R - Chesapeake, VA 23320 (35.8 mi) - Life Science Tutor - $52.50/hr.
My teaching style consists of incorporating all learning styles of most people in order to achieve the highest level of comprehension in course subjects. I believe that most students gain the best understanding when they are required to use their auditory skills, while visualizing the information, and writing the information for the practice of kinesthetic learning. It is imperative that the learning environment is entertaining yet informative so that the students view the learning process as fun. Any additional learning techniques or styles may be applied to accommodate all children in need. I have worked for Norfolk City Public Schools and Virginia Beach City Public Schools as a substitute teacher for approximately six years. During that period I performed a multitude of jobs including long term substitute positions, teaching high school physics, and performed tasks far beyond the para

Karen K - PORTSMOUTH, VA 23702 (36.2 mi) - Life Science Tutor - $34.50/hr.
I began my experience teaching at a small school. I taught 7/8 grade general science, ninth grade earth and space science, and tenth grade biology. I worked at this school for two years, before relocating. I then worked with a tutoring service. I tutored elementary students in a private setting (in homes) in reading and math. I also taught seventh grade science at another small school. Teaching is more than a job for me, I really enjoy helping my students. I believe that all children have the ability and the desire to learn. Some students need a little more attention and enouragement. I enjoy getting to know my students so that I can find their strengths and weaknesses and build on them.

Faith S - Virginia Beach, VA 23462 (39.8 mi) - Life Science Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I graduated from Union College in June of 2008 with a BS in Biology. Due to hard work and dedication, I received my BS in three years instead of four. I have been substitute teaching for almost a year for many different grade levels. As of recently, I have been tutoring students in mathematics. I am a very patient person that believes in sticking with something until the student fully understands it. It may take a variety of techniques, rephrasing or working through examples, but I believe if you are dedicated there is nothing you cannot learn as a student.
