A Little Bit About Me...

I am a recent graduate of St. Bonaventure University. I hold a Bachelor's of Science in Biology. Although I do not have formal experience in teaching I have greatly enjoyed helping others with science in my undergraduate years. I have assisted non-science majors with various science topics, especially biology, when they asked for help and have found that many have had a much better understanding of the topics at hand after I've helped them.
I do my best to adapt to how the student learns most efficiently. I also greatly encourage for the student to speak during tutoring sessions; rather than I do all the talking, I believe it is greatly beneficial for the student to partake in discussions and ask questions. I also do my best to incorporate hands-on activities with students. Unfortunately, I've found that many people find science to be intimidating and difficult. It is my goal t ... read more

I have a bachelor's degree in chemistry. I spent one year in an Americorps program called City Year in which I tutored/mentored at risk youth in an Algebra 1 intensive class in Miami, FL. I am currently in school to get by masters in education so I may teach chemistry.

Here to Help Your Student Succeed

It definitely is important to combine styles. I use direct instruction, as well as guided instruction, and groupwork. It is also important to get to know your students and their specific learning styles. It is helpful to tap into their multiple intelligences and to present information in multiple ways.

I have a bachelor's degree in Elementary and Early Childhood Education, but my experience has reached beyond that to help children with behavioral and mental health issues. I love working with individuals and meeting their individual needs. My job experience includes teaching Pre-Kindergarten, substitute teaching in public schools, working as a Wrap Around Counselor in the school system and in the home and community,and providing Case Management services for Early Intervention and foster care.
When working with children of all ages I believe instruction should be non intimidating, exciting and rewarding! That often means using non traditional methods and materials for learning. I will create lessons based on the child's needs, ability, and interest. It is important to incorporate the educational requirements and teach the child ways of coping with the many demands of the ... read more

Everyone learns differently. I think by involving as many of your senses you are able to learn and retain information better. Teaching information and giving examples that are relavent to the student's life and experiences help teach the student that learning is important.The advances in technology and utilizing these resources are very important. Computer animation and pictures are amazing tools for any student, especially students that learn visually. The education system is going in the right direction by thinking outside the box. They are using every resource available to enpower students.
I would like to use my education and talents to tutor students. I earned two degrees, one in biology and the other in health science. I am very knowledgable in biology, general sciences, anatomy and physiology, as well as chemistry and math. Irecently substitute taught all grade levels ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Teaching is my passion. I strongly believe that every moment is a teaching moment, whether or not it is intended to be. I feel that my job as a tutor and as a teacher is to bring out the knowledge within. I understand that every learner is different and for this reason I begin with an assessment of each student. I then try to use their learning habits as a start for future lessons. I believe in learning through experience as opposed to memorization and so every opportunity I try to create a hands-on environment. I also am intentional in personalizing lessons so that they make sense and are fun to the learner. I also stress retention of information through constant review and skill-building. I am a very patient, encouraging, and enthusiastic tutor.
I am an upcoming May 2006 graduate from Allegheny College, majoring in English. Given my background at a small, liberal arts col ... read more

I earned my Bachelor degree in Elementary Education with a minor in Mathematics. I was a substitute teacher for three years. I recently earned nine credit hours of additional education in order to renew my teaching license with the State of Ohio. Currently a stay-at-home mother, I give piano lessons to students at various levels of ability. I took piano lessons for eight years and am considered to be an advanced player.
I love the experience of teaching children and seeing the light in their eyes when they understand what they are learning. I believe each child learns in their own way and in their own time. As such, I believe in going along with the student's ability. I do not believe in high pressure teaching. I am patient and easy going. If a student is struggling, I back up and try another approach. I strive for my students to enjoy what they are learning as much as po ... read more

I am experienced in teaching. I have worked within the public school systems as a substitute teacher and as a permanent employee. In addition, I have taught GED classes to adults; and tutored elementary and high school students. I am nearly completed with my Master of Science degree, and I have an earned Bachelor of Science degree from Bellevue University.
I am passionate when it comes to teaching. I conduct my lessons with the understanding that every child is an individual. Therefore, they each have their own learning pace and preferences. The first tutoring session, I set aside, to learn more about the child and to conduct an assessment which will help me in determining that child's learning patterns. In addition, I believe in meeting with the parents weekly to discuss their child's progress and to offer advice on how they can help aid their child in their academic succes ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I work with each student in the way that is best for their particular learning styles. I prefer a laid-back approach to learning, allowing students to understand at their own pace and make connection on their own. This does not mean, however, that I do not have high expectations for my students.
I hold two bachelor degrees, a BA in French Language and Literature and a BS in Microbiology. I also have a certificate in African Studies and a minor in Chemistry. Therefore, I have a very well-rounded background in both the sciences and the liberal arts. I am also certified to teach English as a foreign language. I have worked with many non-native English speakers to improve or perfect various aspects of the English languages, including speaking, reading, writing, and listening comprehension.

More About This Tutor...

I am the product of two trained teachers and I have always had the desire to share the knowledge that I have gained. I believe that we are all unique individuals and as such grow, learn and process things at different rates. It is therefore very important as a tutor to first access the needs of the pupil. I am a firm believer in teaching through interactive learning. Students learn best from being able to identify things that they have learnt with real life situations. I also believe that patience is one of the qualities of a good educator and with patience mountains can be moved. I strive to make the experience of learning science a meaningful and fun filled one.
I have earned both a BS and Ph.D. in Chemistry. I have experience in all areas of chemistry from my extensive research background at several institutions. After completing my doctorate, I spent 4 years at the National Ins ... read more
