Organic Chemistry Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Woodbourne, NY

Extensive tutoring of calculus and other areas of math over more than ten years. Tutoring in general physics and chemistry. I will patiently work with students to improve the skills they need and I will help students overcome anxiety with the subjects and help them gain proper mastery of the concepts involved. I am patient and help students to understand how easier concepts connect to more complex ones so they can use both to solve problems.

I am a trained Science Teacher specializing in Biology, Chemistry and Physics. I have over twelve years of High School teaching experience where I prepared students for external exams in Chemistry, Physics and Biology in my native country of Jamaica. The success rate was over 90%. I have tutored both adults (preparing for their GED and LPN exams in Math and English) and young adults (preparing for college exams) during the last four years. Teaching is a skill that I have mastered and I have been successful at finding a fun way of getting students to learn. I like to introduce activities that are practical to the subject so the student understands the concept and therefore have a better understanding of the topic being covered. I am available to help anyone who needs help in finding academic success. I am patient, considerate and will use all available resources to get the student e

I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Biology from the State University of New York at SUNY New Paltz and I have matriculated into the Master of Arts in Biology program at the same university. As a result of my many research and laboratory reports I have excellent writing and typing skills and have completed many writing assignments including numerous essays in various fields as a requirement of completing my Bachelor of Science degree. Because I have coursework at the graduate level in the field of biology, I have taught at the college level and will continue to do so next semester, so I have roughly 1 year of experience teaching students. I have several years experience working with children and adults in the education field. The students I have taught at the college level ranged from late teens to early 30s. As I have worked with such a wide range of ages I am familiar with

I have 25 years as a science teacher and science administrator. I am well skilled in a variety of instructional techniques and have successfully taughtstudents at all levels and of all abilities including students with learning disabilities. I have taught all four science specialties and am certified in NY to teach Biology, Chemistry and Physics as well as General Science. My students have gone on to learn and work in the sciences and have scored well in national competitions The teaching style I choose depends on the student, the situation and the material to be mastered. I prefer hands-on activities when they are applicable but will use whatever method will produce the needed result for the student.

The philosophy I’ve told my students and young interns I’ve trained is “there is no such thing as a stupid question”. This encourages inquiry and excitement knowing they will not be judged. Learning chemistry can also be enhanced by relating examples to real life or by using visual aids. Students who have an actual desire to understand the material even at the most basic level are those who have the best chance to succeed. I embrace that type of student. My expertise is in the field of organic chemistry. For the past 14 years, I have worked as a Research Scientist in Medicinal chemistry at a major pharmaceutical company. Prior to that, I held adjunct faculty positions teaching both General and Organic chemistry at two colleges located in northern New York. My background in chemistry and teaching are a perfect combination for helping your student unveil and really understan

Through college I worked with many students in Organic Chemistry. The first thing I teach students is preparation. Many students have a tendency to put off studying until the night before an exam. Organic Chemistry is one of the first classes where student needs to develop a study schedule. Second I emphasize the fundamental concepts. The content is too much to memorize and students become overwhelmed. Third I teach attitude. There is a point when students realize their potential. The point where "this class is too hard" turns into not being afraid of a challenge. As an undergraduate student I was preparing for a career in Forensic Science. I have 14 years laboratory experience including 3 years at IBM's Material Analysis Lab. Besides coursework I have experience in writing lab reports and designing experiments. I have made a career out of science.

I believe it is the responsibility of a teacher is not only to present the material in a clear and organized way but also to show excitement and love for the subject. Enthusiasm is contagious; students will be excited about learning a particular subject if their teacher is eager and excited about teaching it. Part of teaching is to convince the students that the material is not only knowable, but also worth knowing. I believe all students can succeed under the right circumstances. The responsibility of a good educator is to find what motivates his students. No single method of teaching works for every student, so it is very important that the teacher knows each student well and is able to use the approach which works for that student. After graduating with my BS in chemistry, I went into industry and worked as an analytical chemist. After a short time in industry, I returned to sc

While completing my teaching degree I taught for three years with troubled youth. Subjects were regents level and the subject was earth science and algebra or course I as it is called in NY. I have also taught Summer school at the Allen Center in South Kortright which can be a tough crowd to work with. During my undergraduate studies I tutored chemistry and biology. I also taught 8th grade physical science in Prince George Virgina. In science and math the learner has to practice much like learning to play a musical instrument. It helps if you can bring real world applications into the classroom so it is meaningful to the students otherwise they feel like they are learning something just for the cause of learning.

I always try to teach students according to their understanding level. That's why I am a very popular teacher. And I know how to teach students to make them proper understanding. I always give them the surrounding example from the nature or from the society to make them easy understanding though it is hard. I always try to find the easiest way to teach students. I love to make them understand whatever it is.I believe if anybody really wants to try he or she will learn. No matter what. I have achieved PhD degree which was possible for my sincere patience.
