Samuel S. - Albuquerque, NM 87123 (6.5 mi) - Science Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I am an experienced classroom teacher and have been involved in education since I was 18 years old. I have worked supervising general chemistry teaching labs as well as an organic chemistry TA. I followed this experience by gaining my general education certification through the STEM program at UNM. This involved a year of teaching as an intern at a local middle school. Following this I have spent the last two years teaching Integrated Science, Chemistry and Physics all at the high school level. I have also been occupying myself with obtaining Master's Degrees in Special and General Education. I believe that each student should be respected as an individual that is capable of intellectual endeavors. I utilize humor and have a relaxed attitude but I also expect hard work. I adapt delivery style to suit the learning needs of the student.

Greg C. - Albuquerque, NM 87112 (6.7 mi) - Science Tutor - $20.00/hr.
On-the-job math is almost always done using Microsoft Excel, so I can show you how to do almost anything on a spreadsheet. Ive been a TV broadcast engineer, and taught video production in a public high school. Ive been an avionics technician, a solar PV installer & designer, and a thermal analyst for solar buildings. In most jobs Ive ever held, I ended up being the one who trains new people...just because I love to help people learn things. I have two technical-college degrees, I worked my way through both of them being a math tutor, and have used math and science in some way in every job I've ever held. As for my "teaching style", as everyone knows, it helps enormously just to have another person to work with, ask questions of, and generally talk things through. And since Im not a professional teacher, Im mostly a working tech--maybe I can help you see the connections between the abstr

eric d m. - Albuquerque, NM 87102 (13 mi) - Science Tutor - $32.50/hr.
I have four or five years experience tutoring APS students in the NCLB program. I've been tutoring SAT/ACT students for three or four years. I've taught college composition. literature & philsophy. I've also tutored ASVAB & GED. I can help you get better test scores & prepare for college! Or I can help you improve your writing, reading & math skills for the job or for personal satisfaction! I prefer on-on-one but will also tutor small groups (2, 3, 4 etc.). I usually work with students on the UNM campus or ABQ libraries, but I also like in-home tutoring (your or mine!).

Denice J. - Los Lunas, NM 87031 (27.9 mi) - Science Tutor - $25.00/hr.
Science is the best thing I have ever experienced or taught. I have been the Science Olympiad Director for my state and have judged so many science fairs that I get scared of three fold backboards. I have a Pangaea-sized science background, and I really like to share it. Teaching middle school and high school science from 1983 to 2004, including every science subject listed in the TutorSelect list. I have worked as an educational consultant for national science laboratories, helping them train their scientists to work better in the school classrooms where they volunteer. I have worked for museums and for outdoor education programs, but have found the most satisfaction as a classroom teacher with all kinds of students. I have worked teaching teachers, but they were very difficult students. Multiple ways of presenting material; musically, visually, building models, finding answers by testi

Michele M - Albuquerque, NM 87111 (5.3 mi) - Science Tutor - $34.50/hr.
With Masters degrees in Education and Library/Information Science, I have experience as an educator at public and private institutions.. With a teaching focus that has featured writing, reading, basic/advanced research, information literacy and media, I have taught students at all levels—elementary education through graduate school. Since I have a M.Ed. in Literacy and Reading, I am knowledgeable about reading acquisition, phonics instruction, reading/writing interventions and remediation. As a GED tutor for adults and teens, I have systematically worked students through all the math, reading, literature and composition content embodied by the GED. My teaching style is very open and I am very attuned to students’ inherent aptitudes, learning needs and ways of processing information. I am very approachable, responsive, personable and believe in affirming a student’s self-concept as

John B - Albuquerque, NM 87111 (5.9 mi) - Science Tutor - $35.00/hr.
After completing my degree in 2007 at the University of New Mexico, I moved to Denver, CO and taught for one year at Morey Middle School. Since the school is only 5 blocks from the Capitol building and a multitude of museums and libraries, I was able to tutor a few students from the school in a real-world environment. I have a secondary endorsement in mathematics, and my 24+ credit hours in science allow me to teach general science in Colorado. I am moving to Albuquerque in a couple weeks, where I have accepted a position at Cottonwood Classical Preparatory School, a very exciting new liberal arts charter school in the heart of the city. I believe that children learn best when the material is most tangible to them. When teaching or tutoring, I make a huge effort to incorporate the students' names into math problems. I make it my goal to find out as much as I can about the students,

Richard F - Albuquerque, NM 87112 (6.6 mi) - Science Tutor - $38.00/hr.
Part of my sucess in life is because I place a high value on personal entergrity and represent both my employer and myself in an ethical respectable manner. Added to my diligence of focusing on the students education I will bring years of traveling and life experiences to my teaching assignments. I believe that before an educator is able to teach, you must first discover the needs of the students and then program the material to fit those needs. I like to teach to the senses and bring more than just a text book to my lesson plans and make them fun and exciting. After graduating from High School I attended the University of Utah for 1 year. After that year I was drafted into the US Marine Corps and my education was put on hold as I served my country and raised a family. After all of my children graduated from college I returned to finish my studies. This past year I have worked as a su

Christopher S - Albuquerque, NM 87123 (7.5 mi) - Science Tutor - $38.50/hr.
As an elementary school teacher that focuses on helping diverse populations, I have extensive experience. I have worked with English language learners, and have worked a great deal with students who have learning disabilities. I am a trained consultant with the Wright Group (in math), have TESA training, and currently exclusively teach math to four groups of fifth graders. My philosophy of education envisions learners that construct meaning by
engaging in various and authentic experiences that are provided within and outside of the classroom. In order to prepare them for future educational and vocational endeavors, students will explore a multidisciplinary elementary curriculum that utilizes their various learning styles. This exploration will occur within an educational environment that will be framed on high expectations for behavior as well as academic performance.

Joanna B - Albuquerque, NM 87109 (8.5 mi) - Science Tutor - $35.50/hr.
Students need to be equipped with the research skills and ability to fetter out information from a number of different sources. The information must be timely, accurate, credible, relevant, etc. The days of going to a library and pulling volumes of texts to research substantive information has changed. Now, most students understand what a Boolean search is. However, many don’t know much beyond the internet. This is both an imperative skill as a successful student, and as a potential graduate seeking employment. During the years I have been an instructor and tutor, I have contributed to my students’ confidence and motivation through my interactive and engaging lessons on becoming a successful student. I conduct my lessons with high energy, engaging students to participate and contribute to the discussion. I balance excellent student interaction with effective classroom management.

Harry S - Albuquerque, NM 87108 (8.9 mi) - Science Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I earned a BS in Business (CIS) with a cumulative 3.4 GPA and membership in two National Honor Societies. Courses included Chemistry, many Social Studies classes, and calculus-based Chem Physics. Briefly I taught Science and Math at a private high school in Albuquerque and did well, but quit because of a medical problem with my leg.
After active duty in the Navy, I earned 8 credit hours in English through the CLEP test, and didn't take Freshman English. I had always made straight 'A's in English, and had excellent grammar. My courses included Writing Poetry & Fiction, Shakespeare, Business Communications, and Technical Writing; also Latin, Spanish, and German (which increased my knowledge and awareness of grammatical structure) I have done much sales and customer service work, as well as teaching. I think listening is key, recognizing the humanity in each person, and relating t

Ojingwa Ginny G - Albuquerque, NM 87109 (9.3 mi) - Science Tutor - $39.00/hr.
My teaching style is encouraging, patient and enjoyable. Children and young adults are a pleasure to work with. The goal is to help them to understand processes and tools that are important for their education. The best part of it is when you have a student finally understand an interesting fact or important concept, that is the real joy of teaching! I provide my students with hands on, visual and examples of these concepts. I understand that all individuals learn differently and part of the process is finding out the best possible resources that will enable each child to learn to the best of their ability. I am also very enthusiastic about the material and topics, this attitude tends to wear off on the students! The combination of a Master's Degree in Molecular and Cell Biology and an undergraduate major in Psychology and minors in Biology and Chemistry along with many years of research

Grace S - Albuquerque, NM 87108 (10.4 mi) - Science Tutor - $38.00/hr.
Thanks to my education in psychology at Brown University, I have gleaned much wisdom about the workings of human behavior as well as the human psyche. I have been able to observe applications of what I've learned throughout my daily life. This is especially helpful in teaching; I can recognize the various personalities and the accompanying learning styles in the students, which enable me to be able to appropriately adjust how I present the material. Since I was 17, I've been tutoring and teaching a broad range of ages, from young tykes, to professionals, to retirees. Teaching is one of my great passions. I thoroughly enjoy overcoming the initial hurdles as the children are hesitant to receive me as a teacher, and to see them open up to me. It's also thrilling to see them blossom as they absorb new information and incorporate it. I'm certainly an advocate of fostering intelligence a

Kristina C - Albuquerque, NM 87110 (10.7 mi) - Science Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I have found that the best way to provoke this sort of revolutionary insight in students is through active, participatory learning, in which the student must take the initiative to grapple with, identify and resolve a problem. I helped teach three courses organized in this manner: “Earthquakes, Volcanoes & Other Hazards,” at Princeton, and “The Solid Earth,” and “Geological Excursion: Death Valley,” both at Columbia. At Princeton, we made primary data available to the non-majors in the form of hand specimens, seismograms, theme maps of hazards and real time series data. Similarly, the Columbia classes presented students with a variety of data sources and problems; it was up to the students to determine what was relevant, to interpret the data in time and space and make connections between datasets. Based on these successes, my skills will be best matched with high school students and und
