Life Science Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Boca Raton, FL

I believe that the learning process in the sciences requires a combination of individual study time, instructor guidance, hands-on experiences, and reflection time. I try to incorporate models and activities/games into my lesson plans as much as possible to help my students make connections with concrete examples that they won't forget. I am currently teaching the Marine Biology Field Studies and Lab course (OCB 4043L) at Florida Atlantic University. I take my students into the field on snorkeling trips to teach them field sampling techniques, and then how to analyze samples back at the lab. In the past, I have been a Teaching Assistant for Life Science Lab at FAU; a first mate on a snorkel boat in the FL keys; and a science instructor at the Newfound Harbor Marine Institute in Big Pine Key, FL.

All learning problems stem from a lack of motivation. I use coaching skills to uncover the motivation triggers and then use them to tailor the learning style and pace to each individual student. I help students measure their progress after each lesson and focus on their goals. I have worked as an airplane electronics engineer, statistical analysis software developer, data base programmer, researcher in the field of synthetic diamonds production and assistant researcher in biotechnology laboratory. In every profession I had the opportunity to tutor, train and educate staff, clients and students and I also have tutored elementary and high school students in my free time.
