Marine Biology is one of my top subjects! We live in one of the greatest places on earth and amazing technology in hand to study Marine Biology. Allow me to take you through my class on Marine Biology using videos and interactive technology through local aquariums and research projects. I also have stories of my personal research experiences that will illustrate essential concepts in a way you will never forget!

I have been teaching/tutoring students in life science for over 20 years, but it all started with my BA from UC Berkeley in Integrative Biology. At Berkeley I tutored/taught part-time as a Lab Teacher at Berkeley Community College, a study group leader at UC Berkeley student learning center, and a Kaplan MCAT tutor. I then earned my MA in Zoology (with a thesis in molecular evolution from University of South Florida) and mentored/taught College Freshmen Biology and worked in immunology at the Cancer Research Center. I moved back to the Bay Area and worked at Biotech companies including Genentech, and Amgen. In 2013 I earned my Biology and Chemistry California Teacher Credential from CSUEB, and now have been a full-time life-science teacher for 5 years for grades 7-12 in public, private, and specialized education schools. I have taught middle-school life-science, Biology, Marine Biol ... read more

Marine Biology is one of my top subjects! A concentrated survey of how biological/living organisms work within a dynamic marine environment. Subjects Include: Taxonomy, Behavior, Nutrition, Reproduction, and Environment/Ecology.

I have professional background as a field biologist and a GIS analyst. I have applied my knowledge of both scientific disciplines to support my survey findings and convey them in report form. In addition to my professional background, I have 20 years experience in teaching karate and 10 years teaching SCUBA diving.
My teaching style is a combination of teaching by example and using the Socratic method inorder to challenge the student to think beyond the surface. I think that allowing the student to think through the process and analyze the problem it allows them to better internalize what they are learning.

A Little Bit About Me...

When you meet me in person you will immediately feel that I am someone who relates well with children and teens. I get to know students on a personal level and find out their learning style and modes of learning. I also assess their current skill level and knowledge of the subject so that I know where from where to start. There are often "holes" of information that are missing from students that can cause increasing problems as lessons build upon knowledge previously learned. Tutoring helps to fill those holes and to help kids find success! I am exceedingly patient, flexible and am very professional. I truly care about each success and frustration in my students and I believe in kids when everyone else has given up on them.
I am an educator who has experience in a variety of teaching environments with a range of student ability, needs, ages and cultures. I hold a Clear California ... read more

I believe in "Assertive Discipline". This style uses lots of verbal praise, rewards and incentives. It keeps learning on a positive, moving forward track. This style of teaching is never negative. It encourages learning through engaging, age-appropriate, research-based, fun activities. It starts by assessing each child to determine the student's strengths and weaknesses. Then the appropriate materials are gathered to address each area of need. Tests, charts, diagrams, folders, manipulatives, and many other electronic learning tools are used to track progress and build confidence in each student. All children can learn if they are properly motivated, diagnosed, and given the appropriate learning materials.
I have over twenty years of experience teaching reading. I completed all of the Houghton/Mifflin Language Arts training sessions that taught California teachers how to be expert L ... read more

As a recent college graduate, I know how to work hard. I earned a bachelor degree, BS in Marine Biology from UC Santa Cruz, where I took many science and math classes. I do not have any experience in tutoring, but I have been a mentor to kids in other jobs I have had.
In the job I had where I mentored kids, it was a program called Lil Kickers. This program was for kids 3-10 years old where they were taught how to listen to instructions and communicate with one another. This was mixed in with games that helped their motor skills and ultimately helped them with their soccer skills. I have learned it is very important to be enthusiastic and passionate with the kids.

More About This Tutor...

I have worked for over five years with elementary and middle school-aged students; I have also worked with People with Disabilities. I love working with children, especially the Middle School-aged set, because I love being able to talk with them about current events, and its fun to broaden their horizons beyond their iPods [the gossip and daily drama is hilarious at times too]. I earned my Bachelor's in Biological Sciences and am now in the process of going back to school to earn my teaching credential.
I am a parent to a four year old and a twenty year old stepson, so my teaching and parenting is one filled with patience, toughness but fairness, and lots of humor. I believe that children should talk respectfully, grammatically correct [Student: “Can I go to the bathroom?” Myself: “Well, I don’t know. Do you know how to?’ Student: “I mean, may I go to the bathroom?” Myself: “Yes, o ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy working with students of all ages. I like to get to know the student I am tutoring and what their individual learning style is like. I adapt to how they learn best and go from there. I am patient, and willing to do what it takes to encourage learning and success.
I have always been eager to learn and help others learn as well. I especially love the sciences, but have always loved and excelled in school. I have previous tutoring experience, and love when new opportunities arise. I recently obtained a BS in Biology from Simpson University. This provided me with a significant background in both the sciences and in math. I have tutored high school student math courses, history courses, and science courses.
