A Little Bit About Me...

I have a BA in Microbiology and an MA in Zoology. I have 7-8 years experience teaching biology, ecology, microbiology and environmental science at the college level. In addition I have many years experience in software engineering, technical writing, software quality assurance, and technical editing.
In the classroom I rely on traditional lecture, supplemented by Powerpoint presentations, animations, and lists and diagrams on the white board. I usually assign a research paper. In the last few semesters I've implemented through Blackboard some online testing, as well as tutorial "homework" quizzes, where the students get feedback directing them to coverage of particular sections of the text. I always try to make students aware of how the detailed, technical concepts of the moment fit into the "big picture," making references both to material previously covered and to material y ... read more

I am a very well organized person who can multitask and prioritize extremely well, however to me this important but yet secondary aspect of teaching is next to assisting children develop their social, communication, developmental and learning skills. Creativity in this job is a must and I feel you need to be on the same level as your students to engage them in what you want to teach them. Not all students learn in the same fashion so I feel teaching the same facts but in different ways to target your audience is very key in education. From reading, to visual arts and verbal communication, I feel that they are all just as important as the next one and I would encompass them all into my style of teaching.
My tutoring experience consists of friends over the years, however it has always been something I was very good at. I decided to make a career change after working at Fidelity ... read more

I will be graduating from the University of New Hampshire with a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology in May 2010. I also have a minor in teaching and will continue in the teaching field through a Masters Degree program at UNH this coming fall. I have some experience tutoring students. In the spring of 2008 I was involved in a program called Seacoast Reads through the University of New Hampshire. In the program I tutored a second grade student in reading. Additionally I have been a teaching assistant in Environmental Chemistry at Dartmouth College and a teaching assistant in Plant Systematics at the University of New Hampshire.
I am very enthusiastic about teaching and about science. I believe that all students can learn if they are supported and if they are shown how the information they are learning is relevant to their lives. With high expectations and a strong support syst ... read more

In addition to five years of experience teaching high school biology, I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Biology and Secondary Education and a Master’s Degree in Education; Moderate Special Needs. I am licensed in Massachusetts in Biology grades 8-12 and Moderate Disabilities grades 5-12. My experience working at a private school for students diagnosed with Language-Based Learning Disability has given me the necessary tools to incorporate study skills, as well as reading and writing skills, into the science curriculum. My experience includes teaching biology, chemistry, marine science, daily one-on-one language arts tutorials, and private tutoring in organic chemistry and anatomy and physiology.
I believe that that goal of education is to understand the world around us, not to merely memorize facts. I tell my students all the time that I do not want them to memorize anything, but I w ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have tutored students with a wide range of abilities and realize that they have different and unique learning styles. As such, I use a wide variety of teaching methods to reach as many students as possible. By the time students are in their 3rd and 4th year, my teaching style is based more on discovery learning. I provide a framework and act as a guide as my students search out solutions for themselves. I try to encourage my students to be critical thinkers and not passive consumers of information. I draw a connection from the material discussed to current events in the news, and place the material in a historical and cultural context so the students have a broader understanding. I often reflect back on the teachers I have had - the ones who made a positive impression - and what I liked about them. They had a sense of humour, presented material in an interesting way, neve ... read more
