Today is a great day to learn something new!

I foster development of the whole student by encouraging critical thinking. My methods are adjusted to meet the students needs with an individualized approach. My goal is to promote self learning and help students develop necessary critical thinking skills.
I am a full-time high school teacher with over 12 years of experience in education. I specialize in Science, but have experience teaching and tutoring most levels and subjects. Throughout my 12 years in public education I have developed many skills to accommodate various student needs. I have a love for learning and inspiring my students to be life-long learners by making content meaningful. Teaching and learning is successful when students not only "know content" but are able to create connections and demonstrate real-world applications.

My love for reading and writing from a young age followed me through high school and college. By excelling in various courses, I had the opportunity to tutor a myriad of subjects in high school (particularly Science and Writing), and serve as a Writing Consultant at Bryant University since Freshman year. Outside of school, I have also assisted my friends and peers who have asked for my help in their individual writing assignments or projects. Having a diverse background in fields such as Finance, Accounting, and Cultural courses, as well as in languages such as Gujarati and Hindi, has given me the opportunity to share my knowledge and skills with others.
I have always felt the need and want to help others, whether educationally or socially. As an immigrant who had to learn a new educational system, language, and lifestyle, I know first-hand how difficult a true and successful lear ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My experiences have taught me that a cookie-cutter teaching style is not suitable for every individual. My responsibility is to quickly identify the students weaknesses and turn them into their STRENGTH! I am a every interactive teacher. It is my strong belief that anyone can succeed with the proper motivation, reinforcement and tools. My tutoring style emphasizes the student as an active participant in the learning process. With an approach that is clear, reliable, friendly, and personal, I look forward to helping a student succeed in their academic career. I do not have one specific teaching style, but rather have several styles that I implement based on each students specific needs.
I understand that finding the right tutor can be confusing and time consuming. My specialty is to offer a customized experience to each student. I recently graduated 'Summa Cum Laude' fro ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Being a mother of three adult children and a new grandmother, I adore children. Teaching Sunday School over many years has also brought me great joy. I also personally relate to a child's individual method of learning because I truly believe we all learn differently. There are no stupid or dumb children, only unique minds. Being patient, kind, and encouraging are only a few of my strengths, and I believe I can help any child reach their potential, even when they do not.
I have two adult children who have had learning disabilities while growing up, and fully understand a parent's frustration in encouraging their child over these particular hurdles. I have a BS in Business Administration and achieved my degree over the period of nine years while working and raising my family. In addition, I have volunteered as a Sunday School teacher over a thirty year period, teaching ages 2-12 ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have recently graduated from Roger Williams University in Bristol, Rhode Island. While attending university, I studied various courses- natural science, social science, criminal justice, biology- but my true passion lies in foreign language. French and Portuguese were my primary languages studied. I am pleased to say that I was lucky enough to have studied abroad for a semester in Paris, France. Throughout my life, I have tutored colleagues (though in a non-professional setting) in foreign language.
My philosophy is that education should be as individualized as possible because people do not learn in the same manner. For instance, some people are visual learners while others, like myself, are auditory learners. I strongly believe that educators should expose their students to as many fields and ideas as possible. For instance, when I am teaching, I prefer to instruct students on ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am honing my teaching skills and leveraging my scientific expertise as an Intern for a special education department in a HS. I provide one-on-one instruction in math, science and technology. I will earn a teaching certificate and MAT with honors by years end. I also tutor Algebra 1a. and 1b., respectively, outside my Internship responsibilities. Prior to teaching I was a successful research scientist. I have spearheaded multiple research projects with expertise in cell biology, electrophysiology, biochemistry and human biology. During this scientific career, I have generated multiple publications, presented research at scientific meetings and earned work place awards.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a Bachelors Degree in Geology anda Masters Degree in organic chemistry. I was a teaching assistant in graduate school for both general and organic chemistry. After graduate schooI I worked at Pfizer for 18 years as a chemist. In this position I was responsible for the design and synthesis of many novel compounds and read the chemistry literature extensively. As I gained experience I mentored and advised younger colleagues. I’ve been told by many people that I explain things in an understandable manner.
My ultimate aim would be to teach the student how to successfully learn on his own. I would first determine the set of circumstances unique to each student. For example, are they far behind their class or just having problems grasping some concepts? I would modify my teaching style depending on the situation, but in general I identify facts that need to be memorized and con ... read more

Teaching can be an instantly rewarding experience as one is able to watch the moment of a student's realization of a concept. All students can learn, but the job of an educator is to understand how they learn most effectively and what they want to learn. I believe the integration of technology and computing is essential to increasing the performance of students in science. Students are able to rise to their potential when they participate, ask questions, give full effort, pay close attention, interact respectfully with others, and challenge ideas. Providing a learning environment that encourages all the preceding characteristics is my ultimate objective as an educator.
Throughout my academic career, I have worked as a mentor and tutor in the subjects of chemistry, biology, and mathematics. Over the past eight years, I have tutored undergraduate students and taught chemistry labora ... read more

As a wildlife biologist for 15 years, I spent a good portion of my career giving presentations to a wide variety of audiences and educating people one-on-one about environmental issues. I have both Bachelor of Science and Master of Science degrees. I recently underwent a program through the Department of Higher Education to become certified to teach 7-12th grade science. I student taught 9th and 10th grade and have been substitute teaching at all grade levels. Because of my education and career, I am knowledgeable in many math subjects, biology, physical science, grammar, reading, and botany.
Every child has his/her own learning style. I think it is important to first determine how each child best learns – either visual, auditory, or tactile. I can then tailor my instruction to the needs of each student. In general, I believe that people learn best by ‘doing’. I believe th ... read more

Upon graduating from Johnson and Wales with a A.S. in Hotel and Restaurant Management and a B.S. in Sales and Meeting management I enyoyed my field. But Then A time came where I wanted to feel Like I was helping the community so I dedided to take a career change and I got a job in child care.

A Little Bit About Me...

In the nine years of my graduate and undergraduate education, I have been a teacher, tutor and mentor. As an undergraduate, I was the math and science tutor for student athletes; I helped students to successfully complete Algebra I & II, Geometry, Chemistry, Biology and Physics. As a graduate student, I taught in both lecture and one-on-one settings, and was a mentor for 9 students. I have volunteered my time at science camps for middle school and high school students where I developed and led hands-on activities. In recognition of my passion for science and my teaching skills, I have been an invited lecturer in both high school and college courses. Outside of an academic setting, I worked as a private piano teacher for four years.
Education is invaluable and needs to be made accessible to all students. My goal as a teacher is to create an excellent environment for learning, ... read more
