My comments on tutoring Life Science : 20 Years teaching experience, taught 7/8 science for many years

20 years experience in mostly urban school settings. Experience with students with disabilities. Written curriculum for living environment, earth science and chemistry. Proficient in computer technology and excellent track record in passing regents exams. Attended CIBT summer July 2014 where I learned cutting edge lab techniques and worked with Cornell equipment. Using this equipment allows me to borrow equipment, labs or bringing professors to the school I teach. I use STEM lessons along with cross curriculum lessons in my teaching.
I believe all students can succeed. I use a multi sensory approach to my teaching to allow all students to learn. I also believe in hands on learning in science. I commend respect from my students and have excellent classroom management.

With extensive (and recent) training in education, especially with regard to providing for the needs of diverse learners, I am prepared to work with each student and his or her family to develop an individualized learning plan that will help the student to become confident and proficient in whatever subject area he or she wishes to strengthen. My teaching style is flexible; I will use a variety of techniques and approaches based on what will work best with the student's individual learning style. My leanings are towards comprehensive, hands-on, discovery-based teaching; creating opportunities for my student to make real-world and personal connections with the information.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love to be around students who are eager to learn new things. I typically take a very hands on approach to learning, especially with science, as I believe it makes it more fun and easier to understand. I am a very patient person, easy going and a good listener. I always hope to leave my students with the same love for science that I have.

More About This Tutor...

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 teaching to their needs. I want all of my students to experience that moment when everything just "clicks" and they have the confidence to go on learning and reach their high potentials. I also strive to create a stress-free environment so that students are comfortable asking many questions.
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.

A Little Bit About Me...

Throughout my academic career, I have been motivated to achieve at a high level, regardless of the discipline I was studying. This motivation has allowed me to obtain two bachelor degrees, a BS in Business Administration and a BA in Psychology. My specialization in two distinct areas has allowed me to adapt to a variety of research and writing methods. Starting at an early age, I was able to gain experience teaching skills to others as a member of the Boy Scouts of America and eventually achieved the rank of Eagle Scout. I have also mentored adolescents in a variety of areas while working as a youth counselor.
I have always aspired to adapt my teaching techniques to each student on an individual basis. I have been successful in doing so by utilizing a vast array of methodologies to instruct and provide examples which are relevant to each unique student. I believe there is no ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching children and young adults. I feel that children are like sponges and can only learn what is presented to them in a way that they can relate to. Many children learn through hands-on experiences and personal references, therefore I try to incorporate those whenever possible. I really try to enhance the lives of the children I come in contact with.
My father always told me that whatever I chose to do, it had to be working with children. I didn't listen at first and went on to obtain a degree in Hotel Management and after six years of managing a hotel, I chose to listen and go back to school. I now hold a bachelor's degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders. I have been a preschool itinerant speech therapist for 4 years as well as a preschool teacher for two. I not only have experience with preschoolers, I also supplement my own daughter and her friend's publ ... read more

My teaching style depends on the student. Some students need more visual and audio while others depend on memorization. I like to modify my style that suits their needs as a learner. I beleive in comprehension skills, memorization and learning key concepts to help them link connections.
I am currently a substitute teacher and work everyday in one of four school districts in the Rochester area. I enjoy helping and tutoring kids. I teach ESL to adults on Monday and Wednesday nights and that is very similar to tutoring. I believe tutoring is very rewarding as a teacher and for the student.

I enjoy tutoring high school and college students. It is great to see a student who is struggling in school begin to excel in their classes and begin to enjoy science and math. I would like to help to others to understand the scientific field using my knowledge and experience to spark their interest. My hope is that my students would be encouraged to further their education in science or to apply the skills they learn to their field of study.

I received my Bachelor's Degree from Houghton College and my Master's Degree from SUNY Brockport. I have taught in an Elementary School for 9 years. I taught second grade for four years and kindergarten for the last five. I have also tutored on and off for the past four years. I also attend 30 hours of professional development every year.
From my experience I know that students learn in many different ways. As a teacher and a tutor I find out how each child learns. I then develop interesting lessons that meet each child's specific needs. It is important that the children are actively involved in their own learning process. I like to make lessons hands on and thought provoking.

Teaching is my passion. No matter the situation, I will work with students until they have performed to the best of their ability.
