Biology Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Wixom, MI

As a teacher, I aim to perpetuate knowledge and inspire learning. More specifically, as a biologist I present the material with enthusiasm and point to its relevance in everyday life. Students respond better to learning something that impacts their lives rather than random facts. While teaching general biology, I noticed that several students would come into class assuming that they were unable to learn anything scientific. Students get overwhelmed with scientific jargon and spend too much time trying to memorize facts rather than learning processes. To alleviate this issue, I introduce terminology as it relates to the issue rather than simply expounding on definitions. I have devoted my energies towards learning the basic sciences and then using them for developmental purposes In August 2010, I received my Master of Science degree in Biology at the University of Houston. Also I have

My teaching philosophy centers around encouraging student learning instead of straightforward lecturing. While training students during these years my approach has reflected the discovery that the process of leading students to the correct answer is more effective than lecturing them the answer. I employ various exercises, continuously look for examples outside the discipline, and generally avoid over-reliance on scientific jargon. For example, I once compared the rise of white blood cells fighting an invading pathogen to the way a governor may activate city guards upon suspecting infiltration by spies – a metaphor that may tap into student knowledge of video game scenarios. One student told me that the comparison was more helpful than pages of detailed description of the mechanism of the pathogen invasion and human response. Originally I am from Albania.

I hope you can bring your textbook and study materials with your homework and exam papers while tutoring. I can help you find out the answers of your questions and improve your study. I have recently graduated from Wayne State University as a Ph.D. in Biochemistry. During my Ph.D. study, I have some experience to help undergraduate students on their homework. Also, I have mentored several summer students on their research and daily lab work. I am pretty happy to help students succeed in their courses. Since my major is Biochemistry, I think I have abilities to help students in general science classes, such as mathematics, chemistry and any life science courses. Besides these science courses, my native language is chinese and I think I can help your chinese too, if you like chinese and chinese culture.

I was also the volunteer of Mandarin/Chinese Immersion Program in Martin Luther King’s Elementary School in Cambridge MA (2011). I was involved in preparation of teaching materials in Mandarin and search for suitable Mandarin reading materials for kids aged from pre-elementary to elementary. I am a patient and responsible person; I love to interact with students and kids. I understand that learning language is a process requiring practice and encouragement; therefore I talk to my students in Mandarin as much as possible in classes and give them confidence of using Mandarin anytime in

I have been a tutor for 23 years and I have taught Adult Basic Education for 12 years. I am still continuing my education to receive a Masters degree and plan to get my PhD. I work for a community college and have done advising, enrollment, testing, phone directory, and student sevices. I have attended many professional development workshops on education. Critical thinking skills and untraditional ways are what I focus on. However the way someone learns, I will try to set the individual up to show how they learn and work with them. I will implement practices and materials I think will fit the student's profile. I feel a teacher wears many hats and you must be prepared to wear a different one any day.

I received my M.S. in Biology from Eastern Michigan University in 2014. I taught introductory biology courses there for two years, with subjects ranging from population ecology to genetics. I received acclaim from my students and colleagues for my dedication and commitment to the material and student understanding, as well as my teaching style. I find a discussion format with questions to be the most effective, as it not only allows student participation, but also provides information on where students are confused.
