Ever since I was a child, I've loved education. Learning has always been a strong passion of mine. Math, English and science were subjects that I naturally excelled in and fell in love with. I began tutoring fellow classmates in high school. Algebra was most definitely my strong suit, and I loved to help everyone out in any way that I could. During my undergraduate years, I began to tutor my peers in organic chemistry, cell biology, algebra, English, statistics and pre-calculus. They all began to pass tests that they had prior doubts about and raising their grade. I love to share my knowledge with people. I love to see them succeed. Learning is a good thing and it can be quite enjoyable as well. I am a very analytical and visual person. I break things down for students. I help to make things simpler. Some students need to understand both how and why they reached a particular answer. Ot

I am driven to help others especially through education. I have a BS in Biology and Chemistry from Duke University which allowed me to have in depth understanding of both subjects. Furthermore I have experience tutoring a college bound student with Biology and Pre-calculus, furthermore I have additional tutoring experience in math, reading, language and all areas of the sciences. I believe that education is the key to success and I hope to encourage my students to see the fun and excitement in learning rather than treating it as a task they have to do. I am very creative and patient when it comes to teaching my students. I think all children have natural curiosity and it just needs to be sparked by a patient and fun person. I hope to be that person for my students.

In 2002 I graduated with a degree in biotechnology. During the last semester of school, I was a substitute teacher, where I learned a lot about children and different teaching styles. After graduation, I pursued a career as a chemist, but I always maintained a second part-time job teaching, in some fashion. Usually, that teaching involved a pool. I have been a swimming lesson instructor for 10 years and have been a YMCA swim coach for 3 seasons, coaching over 200 children per year. In these opportunities, I've learned a lot about interacting with children. I am also a trainer for my coworkers and new employees who join our team. Throughout High School and College, I excelled in Math and Science, and use many of the concepts that I learned each day in the laboratory. I believe that each child learns in a different way, and as a teacher it is my challenge and duty to teach in such a

In my own studies I have learned the importance of gaining a firm grasp of fundamental knowledge in order to apply it to situations that one has never encountered. This style of learning is at the forefront of science and mathematics. During tutoring, I make sure that the students have properly attained the fundamental knowledge and avoid teaching only how to solve specific problems or answer specific homework/test questions. By tutoring in this manner, students have had great success in solving problems or answering questions on midterms and final exams. Assisting students achieve mastery in applying basic concepts to unfamiliar situations is crucial in unlocking their potential as they do not have to "memorize" their way through college, especially when it comes to science and math courses. Having graduated as a Phi Beta Kappa Scholar from UNC-Chapel Hill, I have always achieved a leve

I personally enjoy when teachers draw pictures or diagram examples to clarify complicated topics so I have adapted an active tutoring form. It involves the student to explain and participate in my session to properly get the hands on one to one experience and confidence to correct their mistakes. I like to teach in a relaxed, but complete manner that insures the lesion has been ingrained into the students mind. My goals is to aid the students so that they can strive for excellence in their own lives. As a senior at Winston-Salem State University, I have strived for high academics in the Biological sciences. I will be graduating with my Bachelors of Science in Biology/Chemistry in June 2012. Throughout my journey through college I’ve learned successful strategies in science and mathematics that could help others. I have gained eight months experience tutoring other students in basic s

I believe that first key step to successful teaching is to allows the student convey his/her needs or problem areas. While much can be gained from looking at previous evaluations and test scores, I think that it is crucial to let the student express their needs to make them feel comfortable and build a commitment to the teaching program. In individual sessions, I feel that allowing the student to discuss concepts out loud in addition to completing written exercises and preparing questions facilitates the learning process. I also find that real world analogies are useful ways of linking academic information to previously learned concepts and facilitate the student's understanding. Walking students through diagrams or schematics is also helpful, especially when teaching scientific information. Since high school, I have tutored friends, peers, and my younger siblings in several subjects

My teaching style has been to make learning fun and easy to remember. When I have taught I've been very interactive with the students and have gotten many compliments from students and patients as well, on my ability to communicate on almost any level. In Medical School, Residency and practice I have always been expected to be in the simultaneous role of student, teacher, mentor and tutor. I can say I have a vast amount of training and expereience in science, physics, chemistry, mathematics, as well as the liberal arts. I score as an ITSP on the Myers-Briggs evaluation which means I am not only concrete in speech and utilitarian in getting things done, I am also directive and attentive in teaching settings. I have done a small amount of teaching at the junior college level and am comfortable giving oral presentations to groups of people.

My graduate teaching assistant experience gave me a unique opportunity to understand what it takes to be a great teacher.I Taught general chemistry 1&2 and physical chemistry at the Univesity of Virginia. I have also worked in the industry for three years which which a practical understanding of Chemistry. To become a great teacher one has to love the job, willing to give his best and most importantely be creative. I first beleive that all children can learn if they have the right instructor. To me,a student does not fail, but the teacher does. Failure of one student out of hundreed is a failure of the teacher. I listen to students and I do my best to help the students anyway I can. To conclude, my style is simple: listen to students,be creative and be there to help the students.

My method of teaching varies with the subject. A spanish tutor and a chemistry tutor can go about things quite differently. I like leading students to find answers on their own so that they understand the paths they are taking. That method is especially helpful in hard sciences and math. In the liberal arts (poli-sci, literature, religion, philosophy, etc.) I like to work in the Socratic method. I'll challenge the students on topics and concepts with questions that need some thought. I want them to discuss issues with me, and that allows me to help expand their understanding and discover weak points in their knowledge. Since high school I've been working with my peers to help clarify subject matter, as that was my favorite method of study. In college I tutored under-classmen in Spanish, chemistry, and political science. Since graduating, I've worked with college freshmen as a writing tu

Attending and graduating from Davidson College, a small liberal arts college in NC, with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Chemistry was an extremely rewarding experience. I found that the college groomed their students by emphasizing analytical skills--both scientific and literary--and giving back to the community through both service and volunteerism. As a college student, I tutored students in mathematics courses up to Multivariable Calculus and chemistry students up to Organic Chemistry. I have also taught beginning Math, Reading, and SAT Preparation at a local learning center in Atlanta as well, in addition to my experience teaching and tutoring AP Chemistry as a high school teacher. I find nothing more exciting and rewarding than teaching a topic or subject to an individual and seeing the expression and excitement on their face when they truly begin to understand the material.
