Biology is one of my top subjects! I have a Biology minor from MIT.

I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Chemical Engineering and Bioengineering from MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology). I also have a minor in Biology and Psychology. I have tutored several students during my studies, specifically in the sciences and math. I also have excelled in my English and writing classes throughout high school and college.
I love helping students understand concepts that might be confusing at first. I try to help them understand the big picture and then help them work through more detailed questions.

Biology is one of my top subjects!

I began tutoring privately,as well as,for my school's learning center during the early 1990's. I have continued tutoring privately on and off for the past twenty years. I was a substitute teacher in California and Michigan during the 2000's. I also had my own high school level classroom in California for two school years. I was hired on an "Emergency Credential" because I had my BS but no teaching credential. I was laid off due to budget cuts in June of 2003. I also taught "at-risk" elementary age children during the summer for the Glendora Unifed School District in Glendora, CA. I tutored privately for three years from 2005-2008 in south Los Angeles County and north Orange County, CA. I can provide recommendations from these clients if you are interested. My youngest students were in first grade with my oldest students attending college.

Chinese tutor

Currently working as a chinese tutor. My family moved to Michigan 1 month ago from Massachusetts. In MA, I worked as a private Mandarin/Chinese tutor in Cambridge MA (2011); I taught two American student aged 11 and 13 years old. I taught them not only communication but also writing and reading in Mandarin. I was also the volunteer of Mandarin/Chinese Immersion Program in Martin Luther King’s Elementary School in Cambridge MA (2011). I was involved in preparation of teaching materials in Mandarin and search for suitable Mandarin reading materials for kids aged from pre-elementary to elementary.
I am a patient and responsible person; I love to interact with students and kids. I understand that learning language is a process requiring practice and encouragement; therefore I talk to my students in Mandarin as much as possible in classes and give them confidence of using Mandarin anyti ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy working with children. I have volunteered my time as a football, baseball and basketball coach for several years. I believe in following the classroom curriculum of the student and using that as a starting point for learning. Communication is a key ingredient in the formula for success. It is essential to have a positive feedback mechanism in place to encourage education. Every child has his/her own strengths and it is my goal to discover, nurture, and maximize these areas.
I graduated from Lawrence Technological University with a bachelor's degree in Business / Computer Information Systems. I completed numerous courses in Mathematics, Science, Statistics, English Composition, and computers. I have 20 years experience working in the Computer and Health field for Chrysler Corporation and St. John Health. Also, I returned to college to pursue an associate degree in Nursing a ... read more

I was a tutor at Lawrence Tech. University as a member of the Tau Beta Pi engineering honor society. We provided tutoring help to fellow students at LTU. I was also a tutor at Macomb Community College (Center Campus) during the years 1997 and 1998. I was a math and physics tutor in the Center Campus learning center. The tutoring was mainly for community college students and occasionally high school students attending Macomb. Additionally, I would help a friend who was teaching at Wayne State or LTU by teaching one or 2 days of a course for him when he was on vacation.
I really enjoy teaching at the college level or high school level to students. I make a real effort to help them better understand math and physics. These are my favorite subjects to teach so it is an enjoyable experience.

The first time I knew I wanted to be a teacher was in 2nd grade. My teacher truly inspired me and I knew from that day on that that was my calling in life. I strive everyday to be the best teacher I can be to my students. Using manipulatives, games, examples, and many other teaching aids, I know that at least one will spark a light in each child and help them in their understanding of the educational material at hand. As a teacher and a parent, I strive to help all students with patience, care, and understanding. Teachers can have a huge impact on their students, and I always want mine to be a truly positive and helpful one.
I have earned a Bachelors degree in Elementary Education for All Subjects, K-8th grades. I have over 20 years of experience as a teacher. I always put 110% in everything I do, especially when it comes to teaching my students. Furthermore, I have 20 cr ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have recently graduated from Lawrence Technological University with a BA in graphic design, although all of my work experience has been with children. I started this experience in high school, as a teacher aide to a third grade class, creating lesson plans and working one-on-one. I have tutored in a professional tutoring center and privately for over 7 years working with children of all ages. The subjects I tutor include pre-calculus, advanced algebra, geometry, chemistry, biology, reading and English which I taught to kindergarten through college-level students. In the past year I have started substitute teaching at a private school for gifted children. I have gained valuable experience from this position, learning new teaching styles gaining a new perspective in my approach to teaching.
I have been tutoring for many years and enjoy the experience. While working at a tutor ... read more

Thomas Edison said, "Genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration. I am extremely persistant. Whatever it takes to get someone to understand a concept I will strive to discover it. Most of all the process of learning should be kept exciting so that the pupil is left yearning for the next lesson.
I went to public schools in East Detroit, Michigan. In eighth grade I set a personal goal to attend the University of Michigan. I never had private tutors. My strongest subject is math. Mr Learmont, my junior high school history teacher would frequently say, "Take care of these books and these books will take care of you." It was that inspiration that raised me to love learning and in turn teaching others.

One of the most important things in teaching science is to make it relevant. I have seen that teaching students why something is relevant to them makes it come to life and makes it easier for them to learn. During my time as a supplemental instructor I learned to utilize a variety of sources and review techniques that maximize the potential of students to learn. I recognize that students all have different learning styles and I know that it is extremely important to adapt to the individual student. The best thing any teacher can do is to be flexible and I pride myself on my flexibility and ability to interact in a productive manner with students and people from different backgrounds and at different levels.
I first gained tutoring experience as a member of my high school's National Honor Society where I tutored math and science for middle school students. When I entered colleg ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My personality lends itself nicely to the art of teaching, both adults and children. Thankfully, my educational and professional background supports my ability to tutor in all areas of elementary education, particularly Language Arts. As a young student, I was terrified of mathematics. I carry with me the humility I felt at that time, being frustrated and falling behind, when I approach each individual child and their challenge. From my experience I know how helpful tutoring can be and I take great pride in being able to help a child overcome an educational obstacle. Lastly, I always make sure the child I’m helping knows I believe in them. They CAN do it, and I’m here to help.

I believe that the style and approach of teaching varies with each individual student and that it is the tutor’s responsibility to recognize and find the appropriate methods to work with each student. The only teaching style that I believe should be the same across the board for all students is a positive learning environment. I am very patient, energetic, disciplined and compassionate. I believe that every child has the ability to do well and they just need the proper resources and support to get there. Beyond a positive support system, I will make every effort to work with each student on a case by case basis to help them achieve their academic goal.

My teaching style is very unique because I tend to simplify the understanding process of mathematical analysis. I feel that I can teach anyone from 1st grade up to the college level. But I never do the problems for the student. Instead, I guide them through the problem so the student will learn first hand how to solve calculations step by step.
While I was going to school I became a student tutor in the areas of calculus, physics and chemistry. Most were just help with the basic calculations and the understanding of simple fundamentals.

The one thing that I observed about the learning process, is that a person quickly grasps a concept if he/she is interested, or the topic is thoughtful and challenges the wit of a person and lastly, a person is very comfortable in learning through his/her friends. Nobody is stupid not to grasp a concept. It is the methodology, technique and feeling of comfort and interest, that is required. Hence I try to be affable and was more involved. A picturization or a real life example is more likely to fit in a person's mind. I used this technique and was very successful. With this regard, about 70% of my class scored 90% and above in their respective examinations.
I have about 3 years of extensive hands-on and successful teaching experience, I am confident in my ability and passion to teach mathematics. Being a versatile individual I have taught below, on and above average grade level. ... read more
