I myself have add and dyslexia, so I know both ways to teach to kids with mental disabilities and ways to reach without. My teaching style varies from student to student based on how I see they respond.I like to meet with the student before we start scheduling lessons to understand who they are as a person and a student.

In having a science background, I have not only learned laboratory skills and reasoning skills, but I have learned how to increase efficiency, communicate in a clear manner, and write in a way that is direct and clear. I enjoy learning, and I instill that passion into my students as best I can. I grew up with a mom who is an English teacher, so I have developed good communication skills and writing skills from her. I have taught Biology for two years at the college level and I very much enjoy the experience of knowing that what you have been trying to convey to your students just hit home. That is a great feeling. I think it takes a lot for one teacher to reach all of types of students who are all at different levels of interest in the subject being taught as well as at different levels of understanding. However, I feel it is the teacher's responsibility to give them all equal oppor

I believe that positive reinforcement is the most effective way to motivate a student to learn. Each child must learn to identify his or her strengths and use those strengths to solve problems. I believe guided practice is necessary to establish support for students as they are learning until they ultimately can perform tasks independently. I am very clear and thorough with my students and I have high expectations that each child will succeed. As an elementary school teacher, I have experience teaching children to read. For 3 years I worked in schools as a reading professional with children whose reading skills were below grade level. I have also worked as a private tutor in math and reading. I have extensive knowledge of teaching phonics, using appropriate reading material to establish reading fluency, and helping children achieve mastery of critical reading skills.

I enjoy teaching people of all ages. I understand that some people take longer to comprehend certain subjects, particularly complex subjects like sciences and mathematics. I believe that it is necessary to be patient with people when they don't understand something, even if it takes more time than it usually would. Teaching is one of the most important parts of a person's growth, and I want to be a part of that for someone. I graduated Cum Laude from the University of Houston with a BS in physics and a minor in mathematics, so I have great experience in physics and mathematics. I pride myself on my grammar skills from writing lab reports and essays. I have tutored many individuals in the subjects of mathematics and sciences.

I enjoy helping people to learn. Aside from knowledge base expertise, certain qualities exemplify a good tutor: patience and being a good listener. Understanding a student’s learning strategies is foundational and incorporates good listening qualities. A desirable outcome will then be more achievable for the student. I try to let my student, regardless of age/grade, not feel intimidated or unintelligent regarding a certain subject or problem. This subsequently allows him or her to open up and feel comfortable as we work together to solve the problem. I encourage students to focus and have a positive attitude. Hopefully, developing good, solid study habits will result, not only while being tutored, but thereafter at home and school. I have a BS in Biological Sciences and an MS in Biology. I have also worked in the science research environment for many years, including providing input for

To prepare for college, I took advanced math courses in high school where I excelled and subsequently became a tutor in Algebra I, Algebra II, and Geometry. As an engineering student, I was required to take upper level courses in math and science. In addition to my experience as a math tutor, I also have experience tutoring ESL to children and adults. I enjoy math and science and believe any student can excel in these subjects with the right instruction. I believe the best way to teach a student is through good communication and patience. Tutors need to be able to effectively communicate to their students in order to help them identify and overcome learning challenges. I believe each student learns at their own pace and deserves the guidance and opportunity to reach their full
