As a graduate of Amherst College, I have been fortunate to have a great education. I majored in Political Science and consider myself a great writer. I also completed all the premedical requirements, and have taken 10 lab science courses in college from Physics to Biology. I would be comfortable teaching Writing and Reading Comprehension up through the college level. I would also excel at teaching science through intro college level and Math up to Calculus and Statistics. I have a pretty high energy style of teaching. I like to get students actively involved in asking questions because this can allow them to learn at a much faster rate. I'm very much into teaching the 'larger picture' when it comes to academics. My philosophy is that if a student can get engaged in understanding the theories behind details then the details become easy. I can bring this philosophy to your children

My teaching style is a combination of serious, in-depth theory and practical examples to demonstrate such theories, all with a hint of humor, followed by significant practice of the newly learned skills. I've been "teaching" people all of my business career. I always start with the underlying theory and immediately segue into a practical example of how the principles work. I think students want to learn, but need the information presented in a way that makes learning interesting, not boring. I have that ability. I'm able to integrate relevant practical examples because I have a very broad range of experience, having been an entrepreneur and turnaround management consultant for over 40 years. I taught a computer "cap-stone" class to graduating seniors part-time at the Katherine Gibbs school for 1 semester. There were approximately 14 Seniors in the class and we utilized all of th

Both my Education and work experiences have thoroughly enhanced both my knowledge, as well as my communications skills. Having a degree in Biology with a minor in Chemistry, I have attained knowledge in various fields of science. I have been gifted with a natural ability to communicate, and my experiences in both work and study have enhanced both my verbal and my written communication skill. Both in college as well in camps, I have had the privilege of tutoring people, primarily in the sciences. I enjoy helping people acquire knowledge. I have experienced the full spectrum of both poor and excellent instructors myself, so I am aware of what needs to be done in order to facilitate learning. I assess the abilities of each person I work with and develop an approach accordingly. I think that a combination of patience and humor can provide for an outstanding learning environment, and I employ

As you will note, my teaching style is direct and decisive, yet flexible in responding to constantly changing demands. Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to teach Math to a diverse group of students in high school and also tutor to different level of students like K-12 and college. I foster an exciting and engaging learning environment by utilizing hands-on activities, fun experiment and real life connections One of my greatest strengths is evaluating and meetings students’ diverse needs. I assist students by researching and incorporating effective methods and materials, as well as providing individualized one on one support. From my School days I was very much interested in Math and also used to score good grades in Math, So most of the students from my class apart from my best friends used to come and get tutoring. Due to the interest in Math Teaching and Computers, I

I have a PhD in Organic Chemistry, a subject that is a major hurdle for pre-medical students. During my time at Tufts University, I have mentored many undergraduate students. Additionally, I won an award for Most Outstanding Teaching Assistant in the Fall of 2000. I believe organic chemistry can be very simple if you work hard enough at it. I can work with as many as four students at a time, and keep repeating a topic with a student until he or she understands the subject completely.

I have experience teaching Chemistry, Biology and Earth Science. I am a native Italian and French speaker, having been born to Franco-Italian parents in Montreal, Quebec, the second largest French speaking city in the world. I have years of teaching experience at the college and high school levels. I am NY State Certified to teach Science at the high school level. I have taught General Chemistry at Dartmouth College (part-time) and at the University of West Georgia (UWG-full-time). I have also taught (LIU, Yeshiva University (YU)) the one-year General Chemistry sequence using a more traditional lecture and lab approach. At YU, this involved using an inquiry-based laboratory with modules on a certain theme requiring increased independent thought and critical thinking. At LIU, I have taught undergraduate General Chemistry and Analytical Chemistry (Quantitative-with lab) and graduate Analy

I have been tutoring Chemistry, Mathematics, Physics since an undergraduate student. I also tutored English in Europe for several years and prepared my students for the TOEFL. I have been also teaching economics and finance because in 1995 I took the series 7&63 stockbroker licence and in 2000 I passed the LIFA, licensed international financial analyst exam. My teaching style concentrates on the task I ought to solve. If I teach a group of people, I give a brief exam first. Tutoring individuals allows me to concentrate on one person and develop a winning strategy to motivate and teach the student for the given subject. Repetition, breaking down complex problems to simple ones and enthusiastic explanation is mainly my style. I am always adjusting to the individual who has to learn.

I love imparting knowledge and observing a lot of "aha" moments when a person understands the material. I would describe my teaching style as engaging, relaxed but focused on learning the pertinent material. I present to the pupil/student 2-3 different approaches to a problem and have them pick one approach he/she is most comfortable with. As a recent graduate of a rigorous medical school program, I have been able to succinctly summarize and whittle down an extraordinary amount of information into actionable parts. As a result of my experience, I am able to teach friends, college and medical school colleagues need-to-know knowledge(English,biochemistry,physics, statistics, mathematics) in an time-constrained environment.
