Middle School Life Science Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Austin, TX

I try to help students overcome their mental block about chemistry. Before a session begins, I like to determine a student's level of competency in the subject. Short quiz or maybe I'll ask you a few questions on the basics and then go from there.I help students learn concepts and don't really stress on memorization at first (but in organic chem memorization is important). Learning concepts helps one memorize equations and reactions better! Then, I show students how to "APPLY" those concepts to solve problems on their tests. With practice, this training helps them to get over their fear; focus on questions and solve problems like you would solve puzzles!! Tutored friends and classmates for general chem, genetics, biochemistry, organic chemistry for tests and finals. Most students I taught were B and C grade students trying to get into med school. They received A grades on their tests

I am responsible for professional development of teachers seeking ESL certification, train principals on bilingual/ESL requirements and work as an instructional coach to teachers. In addition, I provide English classes for adults in my district. In order to aid my teachers and help them keep up with the changing needs of our students, I am always researching for the most updated information in order for them to be knowledgeable on what is going on outside the school. It is important to me that I provide teachers, students and partners the best education possible. My style is hands on and practical. I feel it is important for my students to understand how they can apply what they learn to real life and teach them how to problem solve when they are in difficult situations. In addition, I am very personable and I work hard to help my student achieve their goals.

Statement of Teaching Philosophy Learning is based upon trust. Students trust me to tell the truth, to empower them with the ability to ask questions, to find and more importantly, evaluate something as truth for themselves; I consider this to be the core of my teaching philosophy. A complete science curriculum will enable an understanding about how and how often science goes wrong, and how history can shadow great accomplishments due to social limitations of the day; Rosalind Franklin comes to mind for her well-documented (yet virtually unknown to the public) role in the discovery of DNA’s helical structure. Illustrating the process of science as self-correcting in the methodology, and the necessity for corroboration and collaboration, is the core of my curriculum. Apart from traditional prepared lectures, students work together to accomplish projects, both as a supportive te

PhD molecular biology, major medical biological research It is my task to make learning easier for you. Relying on my knowledge and experience I will guide you through the subject, point out the key concepts, models and ideas and show how a specific piece of information relates to something you already know. This approach ensures that new information is no scary and huge pile technical details but a sum of ideas that make sense and are easy to understand. I have a total of 10 years active research experience in medical biological and basic biological research. I earned my PhD at the Institute for Pathology in Basel for medical biological research. Then I had postdoctoral appointments at Tulane University and Baylor College of Medicine. Also I taught introductory courses to biology students at the University of Basel, for which I received excellent student feed back.

I focus on showing students why a correct answer is correct and guide them with questions so that they can cultivate the correct answer on their own. I learned the importance of building rapport and tailoring my tutoring approach to match students’ learning styles. I am a patient, supportive tutor, and I make sure the student actually knows what is going on before moving on to a new problem or topic. I am easy going and I like to make the learning as interesting and fun as possible. I feel that all students are different and learn in different ways, so I tailor my questions and teaching style to make sure I communicate information as effectively as possible. As a graduating senior in Microbiology My comprehensive coursework in the hard sciences, including Biology and Chemistry, provides me with substantial knowledge in several domains. I began my work as a college tutor in 2007 and im
