Genetics Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Elgin, TX

I always liked playing up my quirky personality. My favorite teachers and professors were the goofy ones, the ones who can relate to the students' fun side. These teachers also challenged me the most, and I ended up getting so much more out of the course. I figure that, if a student likes the teacher, he or she will pay more attention and have a deeper respect for the teacher. The teacher then can use this trust to push the student a little more, intellectually. I find that is what works best for me. I don't any paid, professional tutoring experience. However, I have volunteered my services to family members and friends. During my sophomore year, I took Organic Chemistry and excelled. However, my friends were struggling. They hated me a bit for how easy it came to me. I decided to tutor them and help them with homework assignments and studying. They ended up doing very well on the exams

Im a 4th year Human Biology major with a concentration in Pathology and Immunology. Biology is the major subject I am specialized in and the subject I will be able to help with the most. Any Biology classes from high school biology to AP biology to Intro Biology at the college level I will be able to help with. My teaching style is very laid back. I like to meet at bookstores or coffee shops if possible.

I had a double major at the University of Texas at Austin with two different biology degrees- BS Biology- Human Biology: Genetics and Biotechnology BS Biology- Ecology, Evolution and Behavior. I also have tutoring experience and I know the subject very well. I can tutor many fields in biology, but I am particularly good at genetics and evolution.

I try to help students overcome their mental block about chemistry. Before a session begins, I like to determine a student's level of competency in the subject. Short quiz or maybe I'll ask you a few questions on the basics and then go from there.I help students learn concepts and don't really stress on memorization at first (but in organic chem memorization is important). Learning concepts helps one memorize equations and reactions better! Then, I show students how to "APPLY" those concepts to solve problems on their tests. With practice, this training helps them to get over their fear; focus on questions and solve problems like you would solve puzzles!! Tutored friends and classmates for general chem, genetics, biochemistry, organic chemistry for tests and finals. Most students I taught were B and C grade students trying to get into med school. They received A grades on their tests

While working on my Bachelor's Degree at A&M I tutored students in various fields such as Immunology, Medical Microbiology, Bacterial Physiology and Genetics, Ancient Greek, and Clarinet. I also have teaching experience from my time as an assistant instructor at a martial arts school where I aided and held classes in Youth and Adult Brazilian JiuJitsu, Karate and Krav Maga. I find that talking and reasoning through a problem or situation is the best way to commit information to long term memory. I do this by drawing pictures/maps/diagrams, posing related questions, and drawing on current knowledge to create more connections to what is being studied.

PhD molecular biology, major medical biological research I have a total of 10 years active research experience in medical biological and basic biological research. I earned my PhD at the Institute for Pathology in Basel for medical biological research. Then I had postdoctoral appointments at Tulane University and Baylor College of Medicine. Also I taught introductory courses to biology students at the University of Basel, for which I received excellent student feed back. It is my task to make learning easier for you. Relying on my knowledge and experience I will guide you through the subject, point out the key concepts, models and ideas and show how a specific piece of information relates to something you already know. This approach ensures that new information is no scary and huge pile technical details but a sum of ideas that make sense and are easy to understand.

My preferred method of teaching is hands-on, through real experiments. Unfortunately, experiments cannot always be done, so I use lots of illustrations and age-appropriate analogies that are easy to relate to. Many times students are convinced that science is a subject too difficult to conquer, that they must just survive it, but science is all around us. I strive for that "a-ha" moment when a student realizes that all biological and physiological processes are interrelated and that the trick to understanding science is to build on previously learned concepts. I believe that teaching solid fundamentals and relating more difficult topics to already learned information is key to helping students thoroughly understand the subject. Throughout my undergraduate years, I was recognized as an outstanding student and held the maximum number of teaching assistant positions every semester. I o

I recently graduated University of Texas with a BA in biology. Becasuse of this I have a strong background in science. I have also been involved in biochemistry research, specifically trying to create immunocontraceptives for rodents. In order to be effective researcher it was necessary for me to fully understand important chemistry, biology and biochemistry principles. In the past I have tutored college chemistry. In a more informal setting I have tutored subjects such as genetics. I enjoy the satisfaction tutoring brings me, but the satisfaction comes when I am successful in conveying knowledge. I feel I am a successful tutor because I take the time to get to know the student and I immediately get work on the weaknesses and amplify their strengths. I believe every student has the ability to succeed, so I explain the important principles over and over through different media and methods

Attitude is the biggest obstacle when trying to learn something new. I try to make the learning process as fun and interesting as possible. When a student is struggling, I believe it is vital to build their confidence towards success. It is important to not make them feel overwhelmed, but to show them how to conquer a problem step by step. I can help provide the tools that your child needs to realize his/her ability. While earning my BA in economics from The University of Texas, I also completed all my pre-med courses. This has provided me with a strong background in mathematics, social sciences, and natural sciences. I have always had a strong aptitude for integrating concepts from different disciplines and exploring how they relate to one another. This skill is useful when explaining new ideas to other students in terms that they can relate to.

I approach teaching as something that takes very much patience and willingness to listen to the students problems. I believe in letting the student self discover his or her ablitiies by steering them in the right direction. I act as a guide and help further explain the ideas that are trying to be learned. I believe in a combination of teaching methods including but not limted to books, the web, models, videos, an flash cards. By practicing a little every day the skills can become second nature. There comes a point when the information clicks and the child will be able to carry this method into other areas of life. As a graduate of sciences I have an in depth knowledge of the basic skills that are needed to continue a higher education. I have completed 140 hours in college that includes plenty of hours in biology, physics, math (thru calculus III) , and chemistry. I have also been tutorin

Biology and the life sciences are as interesting to me now as when I was in the fifth grade. My education is in microbiology which I have applied in the agrigricultural industry, diabetes research, and pharmaceutical diagnostics. I have been teaching biology and biotechnology classes for the past seven years in communty college and high school. My best asset as a teacher is finding a way to make the material interesting and relevant to my students. As a teacher, I strive to motivate students and to encourage their desire to learn so they may ascertain their strengths and abilities. Encouraging and promoting the desire to learn – a natural gift of our childhood – is the keystone to achieving academic excellence, confidence, and creative problem-solving skills. I provide a stimulating learning environment that encourages students to trust their own opinions and foster confidence. M
