Organic Chemistry Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Elkins, AR

I earned a comprehensive biology, chemistry, science degree in secondary edu. I taught 7-12 grade life, earth, physics, ap chemistry, and biology in Alpena, Ar. for almost a year. I was the director of the EncorePlus non-profit breast cancer organization for 3+ years in Little Rock, Ar. I have experience in grant writing and reporting. I taught elderly women how to use the internet. I try to show students the fun side of learning. In the science field there are so many exciting things to learn and do. I think if children are taught that learning is fun at an early age it makes them more apt to do well throughout their academic career. I have patience and the willingness to decide the correct approach for each individual student.

I believe in experiential learning, which means demonstrating a subject matter that is tailored to a students needs, and then applying it to real life situations. I am dedicated to covering and recovering material until a student feels comfortable and confident. I think all students should be able to understand basic chemical concepts and should not be intimidated be information of conversation that is scientifically inclined. Your student will benefit from my experience in chemistry as well as learn the necessary steps to becoming a well-rounded individual with the skills, habits, and attitudes needed to succeed in most courses. My education in a liberal arts college has allowed me to not only master an extensive range of subject matter from mathematics to science to humanities; but it has also allowed me to apply my knowledge in everyday situations. I have a BA in Chemistry and a BA in

Trust between the student and teacher is a foremost priority. I provide an encouraging environment and work to establish a relationship with each child. Each individual is unique and requires a set of modifications to engage them in the subject. Finding a commonality with each student and striving to understand life from their perspective is key to being a successful teacher. Children are naturally curious about the world around them. I strive to see the world as they do in order to better understand how to communicate with them. I believe that education is essential to discovering self purpose. I love to celebrate the small victories that come from accomplishing each task. During and after earning my degree, I spent almost nine years working in healthcare as a medical assistant, teaching patients in a one on one environment. Most recently I was an Environmental Health and Safety Superv

Education is the key to our future and little is more rewarding than being able to have a guiding influence on a young person. I became a scientist because a single college professor ignited my interests in math and science. Everyone is different... we all learn in different ways. My teaching style is to connect with that key way a student likes to learn. I like to make the learning process enjoyable for the student by making the lessons relevant to the student's interests. I like to make learning fun, taking away the mysterious part that inhibits understanding. Music, mathematics and science are the loves of my life... and they're all three related. I played reed instruments (clarinet and saxophones) professionally in New Orleans in the late 1970s before returning to graduate school to study chemical physics. I am personal friends with well-known professional musicians and scientist

While in college thought CCD classes to 4th grade students Held and directed literacy classes to English-Speaking adults. I speak and write English and Spanish fluently. Tutored Biology and Chemistry during college After obtaining a list of objectives, I like to offer a pop quiz to set a baseline. Thereafter, topics are divided in number of days available for preparation. Most important topics and topics not well understood get time and individualized priority. Offer a challenge test at the end. Harder than the test students will face but no so hard as to lower self steem.
