A Little Bit About Me...

I have worked tutoring since I was in College. I used to help students in different subjects, specially english, spanish, math and chemistry. As a native spanish speaker I enjoyed assisting international students improve thier fluency and proficiency in the language. I completed a Food Science degree at San Francisco University in Quito, Ecuador, where I'm from. After graduating from University, I started working at a Confectionery Company in Quito. Working for the Research and Development Department, helped me gain important experience in the Food Industry. Among the main responsabilities at work, I had to run lab trials to come up with a desired formulation for new products in many categories such as chocolates, candies and chewing gum. In addition, I designed their manufacture process and carried out shelf life studies. During my time there I also trained and tutored workers in the p ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My education comes from both a local teaching-oriented college and a nationally ranked research university. I have taught in settings ranging from one-on-one tutoring to lecturing a class of over 200 students. Recently I was involved in generating on-line content for a textbook publisher. Most of my career has been in industry starting with co-op employment while earning my undergraduate degree and continuing after post-doctoral training. This broad prospective has given me a deep understanding of what it takes to succeed in today’s fast paced environment.
I believe learning is a two-way process. It needs to start with a student who has a true desire to learn and then, of course, the teacher needs to have a true desire to bring about the learning. A successful combination will result in mastering of concepts and development of skills as opposed to simply reciting facts. I believe ... read more

Based on my experiences in training and instructing on the job, I consider myself very patient and capable of conveying technical information to my audience. I especially enjoyed the one-on-one and small group contacts that were primarily involved. I feel I can contribute many relevant and 'real' Laboratory and Chemical experiences to any basic chemistry education. I feel I can be considerate to the needs of students at any level, and look forward to the challenges of improving their learning skills and chemical education. I will always strive to do my best with every student contact I might make.

As a freshman forensic chemistry undergraduate student I was tested out of the general chemsirty courses offered at York College. This being the case I needed to find a way to keep chemistry fresh in my mind till the higher level courses were available to me. A professor suggested that I become a lab assistant for the general chemistry classes. This job included preparing all necessary chemicals as well as working closely with the students and faculty. I helped tutor students in both the lab and classroom. I remained a lab assistant for all four years of my college career and helped train many new lab assistants who were also students.
Most my experience with teaching has been on the peer level therefore it has always been easy for me to relate to the students I was helping. Having recently gone through a difficult degree I feel my experience with learning good greatly help other s ... read more

The word student comes from the Latin to be eager, and I love to instill the love of learning, n eagerness to learn, in children. The education or drawing out of a child's mind is the ultimate goal, and doing so in a disciplined yet exciting way has proven the best method for engaging students of all ages.
As a Research Scientist in Corporate America, I took the opportunity to focus on enhancing the math and science education of high, middle, and elementary school students. In addition to hands-on classroom activities, I was involved in the Program In Rochester to Interest Students in Science and Math (PRISSM), judged Science Fairs and Science Competitions. Because of my goal of enhancing student achievement, I have taught Chemistry at the Junior College level for the past eight years. I love the appreciation of English Literature and English Grammar as well and so, upon retire ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Between my studies at Roberts Wesleyan College in the liberal arts field, where I earned a bachelors degree, and my studies in math and computational science I have an exceptionally broad knowledge base. My work experience further illustrates this having worked briefly as an English teacher in Prague as well as the various sales and customer service jobs I have had including Verizon Wireless, Wegmans, and Radio Shack.
I love working with people and teaching them about the things that I am passionate about. I am very patient and throughout and I have learned a lot of valuable techniques such as asking the right questions to confirm that the student has learned the lesson as well as planning out what the important points are that I need to cover. I also try to illustrate points using a variety of learning styles that over time I can customize to individual students.

My philosophy of teaching is based on three principles: Helping students learn, love of my subject matter, and love of life long learning. In graduate school, I was fortunate to have a teaching assistantship in the undergraduate chemistry laboratories. During and after those hectic three hour labs I discovered the joy of seeing the veil of confusion lifted from my undergraduates’ faces. I’ve been gifted with the patience and creativity to discern where the confusion originates and to explain topics in many ways so that any student, who wanted to learn, could learn from me. I saw that I too, would continue to learn from teaching the students—it came full circle.
I leveraged my flexibility, creativity, and training to establish a reputation as a productive research professional in a Rochester, NY industry. I am the co-author of 22 US Patents, the recipient of numerous awards f ... read more

I like working with children. They are so appreciative and excited when they learn and figure out a new word or anything. I am easy going and very supportive. GIven a good learning atmosphere, good support, encouragement and enthusiasm and children can learn. Everyone learns in different ways; in a one-on-one situation that can be discovered and lessons designed to best help the child.
I finished my degree by going to summer and night school; I graduated in 1979. I was the first in my family to go to college and I am very proud of that. I have become a much better writer and am much more aware of grammar through writing reports, technical papers and SOPs. For a couple of years I volunteered for Literacy Volunteers because of my love of reading.

A Little Bit About Me...

At the University at Buffalo I worked as a tutor for university students in subjects ranging from English and Spanish to biology and calculus. My BS is in biomedical sciences but I am also a proficient writer and have taken many English courses. I received an award for Outstanding English Student in high school. In addition, I worked for the WHIZard Academy for Mathematics and English in Penfield, NY as a chemistry tutor for a high school student in preparation for the regents exam. I created lesson plans and compiled practice test questions because the company did not possess the materials to properly prepare the student for the exam.
In my experience, most students learn best by practicing the material and get bored listening to long lectures. However, as I learned from students and from a college tutoring course, all students have different styles of learning and I tailor my tea ... read more

My high school Chemistry instructor had a profound impact on me. Although the subject was a difficult one, his passion for it was so infectious that, by the end of my junior year, I WANTED to be a chemist. I went on to attain Chemistry degrees from Long Island University (BS) and the University of Maine (MS with thesis). I subsequently enjoyed a 28-year career at Kodak in such diverse Chemistry-related fields as lithium batteries, pharmaceuticals, and diagnostic imaging. My teaching experience includes a Graduate Teaching Assistantship at the University of Maine, participation in the High School Educators Conference at the Rochester Museum and Science Center in the early nineties and tutoring my step-daughter in high school chemistry.
In my final semester as a TA at Maine, I was assigned instructing Chemistry lab to a class that was regarded by some as "difficult" and "slow". The s ... read more
