High School Genetics Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Atlanta, GA

I am able to curb my teaching style around the learner's learning style. I have experience in all forms of teaching. I am a certified genetic counselor and received my Masters in Medical Genetics/Genetic Counseling from the University of Cincinnati. I worked as a Clinical Research Coordinator in Cincinnati for two years while taking courses towards a Masters in Secondary Education in Biology. I have taught students of all ages including freshman in high school and undergraduate college students in genetics. I specialize in anything medical genetics related including molecular genetics, cytogenetics, risk assessment, psychosocial counseling, ethics in medicine, cancer genetics, prenatal genetics, adult onset genetic disorders, and pediatrics (which includes metabolic disorders, cardiovascular genetics, chromosomal conditions, etc.).

I have high expectations for my tutoring students. I also strive to discover how a student learns, whether it be seeing it, hearing it, feeling it, or a combination of the three. I am a proponent of hands-on learning, and believe that a tutor’s role is to be a facilitator of a student’s curiosity and achievements. Through implementing a learning plan with attainable goals based on the student’s background and

I have not only taken several courses in genetics (including independent study of the genetics of development), but I have taught a basic genetics course. I have also tutored many students in various areas of genetics. As a teacher and tutor, I focus on developing conceptual knowledge (rather than memorization), and structured study methods, problem-solving techniques, and test-taking skills,including post-test analyses of mistakes as a learning tool. I encourage the student to develop skills appropriate not only to the discipline, but to his or her own personal learning style. I like to use on-line interactive tutorials, especially with students who are highly visual or hands-on learners. At the same time, as a tutor,I like to interact with the student's instructor (and, where appropriate, the parents) to best serve his or her needs. I have taught at three universities (The Universi

Expert in Molecular biology, cytogenetics, Recombinant DNA technology and Biotechnology Teaching one to one following the black board method supported by power point slides to make summaries easy. Each class begins with a lesson plan and proceeds checking each heading covered and ends with summary of that day's topic. Teaching is my passion. I have vast teaching experience in all basic branches of Botany and in specialized ares of Molecular biology, cytogenetics, recombinant DNA technology, biotechnology, bioinformatics, microbial ecology and algology. I taught all these subjects at post graduate level and guided students for their academic projects, M.Phil and ph.D theses. Expert in preparation of study materials as per the need at any level. Clarity of expression, fluency in communication and patience are my assets.

I believe that teaching is most effective when you give students a chance to show you what they already know. Half of teaching is simply encouraging children to be interested in their own progress and to persevere through the adversity that always follows real learning. I gage the progress of my students by asking them a lot of questions, and I give positive reinforcement whenever possible. I want to be a positive role model for every child I come across, and to participate in the process of discovery with them in a personal way. Most rewarding is the way that my students have taught me more things than I would have ever expected. I love to see my students' progress as they find their own paths, and to celebrate each students' uniqueness. I am graduating from Rice University with a B.S. in Biochemistry and Cell Biology and a B.A. in Asian Studies this year. I have achieved a cumulative G

I earned a BS in Computer Science from Berry College with a minor in Animal Science and one class short of a second minor in English. During my senior year I worked as a teaching assistant, helping the freshman programming class complete their assignments as well as grading their work and running study sessions. I just finished a master's in computer science at Rice University (degree to be awarded December 2010) and during my time at Rice I was a TA both for their freshman class as well as for the advanced Operating Systems class. Before I graduated I spent summers teaching horseback riding to children. Currently, I am independently tutoring a sixth grader in math twice a week. I have spent many years working with students of all ages, from my summer jobs running horse camps for children to my time in college as a teaching assistant for introductory classes.

I have been involved with tutoring at a very young age. I remember being in elementary school reading to the younger children that could not read. I am an advocate of every child receiving a fair chance at success in education. I have earned a Bachelor of Science in Biology and a Master of Science in Cellular Biology, enabling me to gain a thorough appreciation of math and science at all levels. In addition I have tutored students in several different aspects of these subjects including physical science, biology and algebra. Former students of mine have successfully passed both the CRCT and Georgia High School Standards tests in math and science. As a trained research scientist I consider myself a liaison between the scientific genre and the student.

I have experience teaching at a university as a Teacher's Assistant in chemistry. The classes would meet before a test and discuss the analytical techniques of the course. I am currently teaching an Anatomy and Physiology course for nurses looking to pass the RN liscensing exam. My approach to teaching is centered around the particular goals of the student or students. Clearly, a course centered around a liscensing test will focus on the material that will be on that test. Otherwise, teaching has to be catered to the student's ability to learn the material and focus on the weakness in understanding the concepts involved in the material. I am currently teaching anatomy and physiology courses to students training to become licensed Registered Nurses. The courses focus on basic science principles and the relationship of these concepts to human function and structure, clinically.

I enjoy teaching and tutoring others. I am from a family of four, and as the eldest child I tutored all my siblings in science subject areas were they had difficulties. I like to help kids that have an interest in science. I try to instill the enjoyment I have for the subject. I have earned a Doctoral degree in Medicine and a Masters degree in Public Health concentrating in Epidemiology and Bioststatistics. As a research scientist, some of the subjects that I had to do well in were math, biology, chemistry and physics. I supervise various levels of our staff and have been told by my peers that I am a good teacher.
