My teaching style varies according to the needs of the student. My teaching experience includes over twenty years in Texas public schools. I have taught science to grades six through twelve that include AP Biology, PreAP Biology, Biology, AP Chemistry, PreAP Chemistry, Chemistry, GMO, and Environmental Science. My mathematics experience includes seven years of teaching seventh and eighth grade mathematics, as well as Algebra I. I have also had success STAAR and Algebra I EOC exams.

I have had experience in the classroom teaching the three major sciences (physics, chemistry, and biology) at the high school level and also did an apprenticeship as part of a graduate program for UT Health Science Center at San Antonio. My combined experience allows me to construct learning models based on analysis of individual students. The information I obtain through working with students allows me to better choose an appropriate teaching approach. I have worked as a math and science interventionist for an elementary school and have been a substitute teacher in every field of education including special education. I am able to quickly adapt to any education setting and deliver focused instruction based on either prescribed methods or a pedagogy derived from years of experience. I have worked in a wide variety of socioeconomic school settings, which makes me quite versatile when i

Let me know what doesn't work for you, and I will definitely adapt to what might work. I am very knowledgable in most biological sciences, and have loved doing the work that it takes to make good grades in each of them. I have had the pleasure of helping many students reach the same success, and look forward to doing so for others. Professionally, I have worked with children with and without disabilities to give them the skills needed to become better learners-and have tutored both high school aged children and college students.

Since attending college, I have been infatuated with teaching. To learn the best strategies for teaching chemistry to students, I took a course entitled, “Instructional Techniques in Chemistry,” and served as the sole laboratory instructor for two sections of general chemistry during my undergraduate studies. I have taught non-science major undergraduates, continuing education high school teachers, undergraduate chemistry majors, and graduate students in biochemistry and cell biology. I also served as a discussion leader for two years in general chemistry, which required me to hold weekly sessions that allowed students to ask questions pertaining to chemistry. I use a wide variety of approaches to teach since different students grasp concepts in differ ways. This variety has helped me to adapt as the skill levels and backgrounds of my students changed. Some of the methods I have u

My wife and I home-schooled our three children from 1993 until 2004. In addition, I was active in Scouts from 1994 until 2007 as Assistant Scoutmaster, Scoutmaster and Merit Badge Counselor. These positions are supervisory in nature and involve both formal and informal teaching, mentoring and guiding. This experience also entailed several summer camps. My strengths are in the natural sciences, which formed the bulk of my work at UT, and English composition and grammar, as I gained extensive experience proofreading and writing essays for publication. I typically employ the Socratic method: asking questions to discover what the student knows (or thinks he knows) and guiding his thinking toward discovering the knowledge himself. Both my three children and my Scouts have declared that they enjoy my teaching because it engages their interest and because it is frequently humorous (when t

I have always had an interest in math and science, and I got my start tutoring in high school by helping fellow classmates and friends in these subjects. I went on to earn my BS in Mechanical Engineering from U.T. Austin. I have also spent much of my life in the world of music and began teaching beginner piano lessons several months ago. If the subject matter is analytical and involves numbers, I can certainly help you figure it out. I enjoy working with children of all ages, but particularly excel with more mature students trying to tackle more difficult subject matter. One of my greatest strengths is helping people understand abstract, technical material by simplifying the concepts and using analogies that the student can relate to. Often times we create a barrier because something seems like it should be hard. I make it my goal to break through that barrier by reducing the subje

As a teacher, I strive to motivate students and to encourage their desire to learn so they may ascertain their strengths and abilities. Encouraging and promoting the desire to learn – a natural gift of our childhood – is the keystone to achieving academic excellence, confidence, and creative problem-solving skills. I provide a stimulating learning environment that encourages students to trust their own opinions and foster confidence. My work experience combined with my instructional ability allows me to bring a broader perspective to the classroom, emphasizing the applicability of material learned. Biology and the life sciences are as interesting to me now as when I was in the fifth grade. My education is in microbiology which I have applied in the agrigricultural industry, diabetes research, and pharmaceutical diagnostics. I have been teaching biology and biotechnology classes for

I firmly believe that you learn best when you're having fun. Once a topic fascinates you, your mind automatically engages more, which helps you remember better. So I work to draw students in by keeping things interesting, using fun examples, humor, and applying things to areas they will actually care about. I want to make you actually WANT to learn. I have a very adaptable teaching style. If one explanation isn't helpful, I'll try to approach from a different perspective, until we get something that works. I also prefer to encourage children to figure things out themselves, using only a light hand to guide them in the right direction. It builds problem-solving skills, gives you a sense of achievement, and keeps you actively involved. I've always had a love of learning, and have naturally slipped into an informal tutor role with friends. During high school I took several AP tests and a

I approach teaching as something that takes very much patience and willingness to listen to the students problems. I believe in letting the student self discover his or her ablitiies by steering them in the right direction. I act as a guide and help further explain the ideas that are trying to be learned. I believe in a combination of teaching methods including but not limted to books, the web, models, videos, an flash cards. By practicing a little every day the skills can become second nature. There comes a point when the information clicks and the child will be able to carry this method into other areas of life. As a graduate of sciences I have an in depth knowledge of the basic skills that are needed to continue a higher education. I have completed 140 hours in college that includes plenty of hours in biology, physics, math (thru calculus III) , and chemistry. I have also been tutorin

Working with children is my passion! The individual differences of my students is what drives my teaching style. As a general rule, I believe in everyone having the chance to succeed based on success for them personally. Being an educator has helped me to understand the need for teamwork between teachers and their students, parents, colleagues & administration. I find that I am most comfortable when I have the opportunity to be in front of a class of students who are eager to learn and willing to work hard. Children learn by doing, so it has always been my intent to create a hands-on classroom environment. This ensures that students will have experiences to help them expand their skills in all subjects. I have been a teacher at the elementary level for 6 years. I earned my bachelor's degree from UT-Austin and my teacher certification from LeTourneau University. I completed my stude
