My classes are by no means easy, I prepare my students for life, even if that means having students leave my class with “their head hurting” because they had to think too much. I believe my ultimate philosophy has been that learning should hurt a little bit. If the classroom environment is not provocative, controversial, and challenging, I think the teacher has fallen short of his or her task. On the other hand, I am not afraid of being down-to-earth, funny, or look unusual if I have to do so. I have extensive work experience and knowledge in the areas of Adult Education and Literacy, teaching English as a Second Language, Math and Science. I would like to share my enthusiasm for these subjects, and education in general. My teaching experiences in Adult Education and Literacy at Northside ISD, San Antonio Texas have allowed me to work with students from diverse backgrounds. During my te

I hold a Masters in Mathematics and a Bachelors in Molecular Biology. My teaching certification is EC-6 and just added ESL certified. I believe all children learn at there own style and pace and that we as teachers need to find what works for the child and help them build on their strengths in a positive way. I am a certified teacher and have been teaching for 8 years in elementary school. I began my teaching career by accident leaving the law enforcement field to work initially part-time as a teacher. However I really enjoyed working with children and found that I was good at it. Over the years it has been nice to hear both parents, teachers, and children comment that I have made a difference in their lives and that I have helped make them the young people that they are shaping to be. Many children and parents have said that while I was tough I have helped them stay in school and bec

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. Let me know what doesn't work for you, and I will definitely adapt to what might work.

I tend to be really flexible and try to adapt my teaching style to the learning style of the student. For students who tend to be more tactile, I might have them handle apples if a math problem references apples. If a student is working on a writing assignment, I will offer suggestions (such as marking spelling/grammar/punction mistakes) and help them learn how to correct the errors so they won't continue to make the same errors in the future.

I am certified by the State of Texas to teach all sciences at the high school level. I have worked in a wide variety of socioeconomic school settings, which makes me quite versatile when it comes to my approach to teaching. I start from the ground-up, first forming a cognitive scaffold for a subject by teaching the very basics. From there we branch off into more and more complex tasks. I have experience with graphic design and animation programs and love to use technology aids whenever possible. When all else fails I draw upon knowledge the student already possesses and attempt to form analogous models that are easier to understand. 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.

I have tutored in biology at St. Mary's University.I have 2 years overall of tutoring experience. I want to be a tutor to help students better understand the material they are having difficulties with. In turn by helping them I am also helping myself retain the information. I have studied Biology, Microbiology, Histology, Physics, Math,and other various biology subjects. I presently study cancer research at the University of Texas Health Science Center. I like to teach students visually with videos and models so that they can retain the information through visual memory.

Results Guaranteed!!! I usually assessed where my students' weaknesses are and work from there. I make sure that the students are comfortable with the level that I am teaching and not feeling pressured by any difficulty but to make sure their interest in the subject is incited,having explained to them clearly and very thoroughly in an enjoyable way and yet learning to grasp the gist of the topic, overcoming any fear instilled by the areas of where the students' weaknesses lie, working on those, building up the students' confidence and skill in the subject, developing their potential to the utmost, and thus, naturally following it, with results guaranteed:)! I have been tutoring science subjects since i was in high school until now, which makes it about 30 years tutoring experience:)!I was representing the Science Department of one of the top schools in Singapore, Anglo Chinese Singapore
