I have over 10 years of experience tutoring. I have tutored elementary to college students and even taught basic reading through Sylvan's Ace-It tutoring. I have extensive experience working one-on-one and also in groups. I was a Supplemental Instruction Leader all through my college years which allowed me to work with groups and instructors, creating sample tests and quizzes, and helping individuals with different learning styles. I have assisted others with learning Spanish, even when English was not the first language, and helped high school up to college students. My teaching style is adaptable to the student.

I have always enjoyed studying science, especially Biology. I obtained my Bachelors of Science in Molecular and Cellular Biology in 2001. During my undergraduate studies, I tutored many colleagues in various subjects. I also precepted an upper division Plant Genetics course during my junior year. I assisted the Teaching Assistant with experimental set-ups and held office hours so I could meet with students to go over course material in preparation for exams. I obtained my PhD in Pharmacology and Cancer Biology in 2008. During my graduate studies, I mentored four graduate students and two undergraduates during their tenure in our laboratory. During my postdoctoral fellowship, I mentored a community college biotechnology student. She had decided to pursue her BS in Molecular and Celllular Biology at the University of Arizona. I would like to continue tutoring students as I enjoy t

My teaching style is dependent on the student. With some students I find that they just need initial guidance from me before I let them be independent with their assignments. With other students I have found that they need me to hold their hand, so to speak, during the whole process. When that is the case I make sure that the student does not feel inadequate by having me walk them through each assignment. Since I am a graduate student I also implement various ways I learn with the students I teach. I will use auditory and visual modalities of teaching in order to help them develop various senses while they learn. Currently I am in two graduate programs in the medical field, naturopathic medicine and acupuncture. I feel very confident in my math and sciences. I have had past experience tutoring students at a local Learning Centering in Scottsdale where I worked with children from ear

I aspire to be a tutor who is engaging with the student. Teaching AT the student is something I will not do. I will require my students to utilize their own critical thinking and writing to keep them actively engaged. Second, I will facilitate a stimulating, safe learning environment that will keep the students eager and comfortable about their participation. I view myself as being very personable and will encourage students to ask questions, because I know it can be difficult to ask sometimes. Lastly, I want to help students understand how education will prepare them for the future and assist them in planning their careers. I have been around the sciences want to inspire these kids with my love of the sciences! I just graduated from Arizona State University with a BS in Biochemistry (Medicinal Chemistry) and received a minor in Biology. I have logged over 100 credit hours in ASU’s scie

I have had experience teaching that is inquiry-based but have also taught in a more factual style with lecture. I believe that each student has a different style of learning, and I am more than willing to adapt to the child. It is crucial for students to understand all the fundamentals of education, so that higher levels (college) of education will be obtained. I always make sure the student understands the material every step of the way so that they will not fall behind. I also believe that the student must take what they learn and apply it. I also believe that by excelling in certain areas of school and improving, this will give a higher confidence to the students that will be apparent in all areas of school. I graduated with a BS in Biology and a minor in Chemistry. During my college experience at the University of Arizona, I have participated in two programs that allowed me to teach

An understanding of the student and his/her background, strengths and weaknesses, and motivation is key to successful learning. This student-centered approach has gained favor in recent years, and using this approach in an interactive way allows the student to develop critical-thinking skills at an optimal pace. As a graduate student at the University of Chicago, I was responsible for leading introductory core Biology labs, which covered an array of concepts in biology, statistics, computer usage, and experimental design. Because lab reports were frequent requirements, I also was able to improve skills as a writing tutor I had already developed as a writing tutor (paid student position) in the Writing Lab at Towson University. I also have taught a remedial study- and life-skills course for students on Academic Probation at the University of Arizona. Finally, in my capacity as Academic Ad

When it comes to helping other students I like to bring to the table a constructive and collaborative approach to solve the problem. In implementing this philosophy, it allows me to engage the students in the discussion and at the same time it challenges them to think critically. I believe this interactive method is very effective and encouraging. Not only does it challenge the students to "think out-side the box", but it also allows me to see where they are stuck in the problem and provide them with feedback. I see teaching as an avenue to share my knowledge and passion for helping others. I consider myself a very patient, confident and understanding person. Having graduated from the University of Arizona with a BS in Microbiology and minors in chemistry and Spanish has enabled me to expand my knowledge in areas such as science in particular biology and math.

Every student can learn with motivation. Most of my classes were self-paced, and I had great success in motivating students of all types. My most recent position was teaching science to at-risk high school students who averaged 4th grade levels in reading and math. Every participating student earned credits in science, a first for most of them. My interest in them as individuals and willingness to give each one of them my attention, then let them take charge of their own learning, paid off in results of which I'm very proud. I encourage an environment conducive to learning; I am open to any approach that works for my students; and I believe patience trumps time-tables. After many years as a Wyoming rancher and three years as an ESL volunteer, I returned to school to become an ESL professional. With my Master of Education degree in hand, I taught a year of ESL classes at Cochise College,
