I teach with passion and enjoyment, which has always proved conducive to the learning process. I, myself, have always enjoyed being a student, and realized what qualities in teachers I found most effective. Patience, competency, articulation and good-natured humor go a very long way in education and I believe I possess those traits. I have worked with mainstream students, Special Education students, and Deaf students in a variety of educator roles from straight tutoring to camp counseling. Through these experiences, I have realized that a teacher must have flexibility and creativity in how they present information, as everyone has a different learning style. The responsibility lies with the educator to find that style and help the student reach his/her highest potential, and I feel confident in my ability to do so. In all my endeavors I strive for variety. My collegiate career at U

I love meeting and interacting with new people, children and adults alike. I have extreme patience. I believe that it is imperative to make the student feel comfortable in the learning environment. I would never embarrass a student for asking a question. So many times in the past, I have witnessed teachers ridiculing students for asking a question because they genuinely did not understand the subject matter, which prevented the students from asking any more questions in class. It is also important to know why the student, or his or her parents, believes that he or she needs a tutor. Science, especially biology and chemistry, has always intrigued me. Since I was a child, I had always known that I wanted to study biology. I received a BA in Biology in May 2006 from CU. During my studies there, I focused on chemistry and received a minor in French. My coursework is quite varied, an

My teaching experience includes traditional classroom single-discipline settings, as well as non-traditional field work, with students Pre-K to Secondary. I have lead (wildlife and water) research projects with students and teachers, and have participated on research projects with university professors, through Earthwatch and Keystone Science School. I was a museum educator at Boston Museum of Science and awarded "Rookie of the Year," teaching the concepts of air and flight to Elementary School Students. Using household objects to perform hands-on experiments is one of my strong-suits. My professional work also includes working for the National Marine Fisheries Service as a biologist in the U.S. Fishing Conservation Zone. My educational philosophy is strongly influenced by Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences. I approach teaching from that perspective, incorporating a v

I love teaching. I have been working with children of all ages. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am available to help your child find academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providing a constructivist approach to learning. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. A few good educators can make a world of difference to a child's education. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives. As college graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a level of excellence in education. I have earned a bachelor degree, BA (hons) in Biology and Chemistry, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of math and science.

I have been educating learners in the content of science for the past three years. I gather information from my experiences in my education to help learners get the best knowledge they can get. I am always looking for new information to not only increase learners knowledge but also my own. This drive for knowledge has gotten me into the AVID tutoring program which uses content learning to help learners gather information. I am a firm believer in the ability to learn, and that everyone can it just may take few tries to find the correct technique to gather information. I am a patient and caring person when it comes to education. I will take my time and make sure learners understand everything I am teaching.

After graduating from college with a BS degree in Zoology, I chose to serve for two years in the AmeriCorps. A large portion of my responsibilites were teaching in and out of the classroom on the importance of environmental stewardship. I recognized early on the amazing dynamics of teaching and the lives that were changed because of it. After AmeriCorps I spent a majority of my time substitute teaching in three different states - California, Colorado and Idaho. During my time in Colorado, I tutored for a private boarding school. I tutored in math, science, English and even grammar for both local and international students. Part of my tutoring responsibilities were to keep weekly contact through email with the students' teachers and their parents. It has been written about for centuries where one teacher made all the difference in the decisions that a student made for the rest of his

I have been a substitute teacher in all academic subjects. I have managed a classroom of 5-12th graders as well as presented the lesson prepared by the teacher for that day. This experience has increased my knowledge of the behavior of middle and high school students. In addition to my substitute teaching duties, I have accumulated over 600 hours in the classroom through internships and student teaching. I participated in the “Summer in the City” internship given by the New York City Board of Education in the summer of 2003. This gave me invaluable experience with a diverse learning population in an urban learning environment. Furthermore, I have performed over sixty hours of one-on-one tutoring in all subjects. I graduated from the State University of New York College at Geneseo in December, 2003 with a Bachelor of Science in Biology and a provisional teaching certificate in B

It is my job as a tutor to approach each child as an individual. I use my own creativity and experiences to find different ways of teaching the same material in order to find the way that works best for that particular child. It is a very rewarding experience and one that the child should find positive also. I've had very good results from my methods and am very pleased with my students' progress. My objective, as a graduate of Pacific Lutheran University (May, 2007) with a B.S. degree in Biology and Chemistry, is to pursue a life of action in social justice and environmental protection. I want to use my life for something tangible and productive. I am articulate, responsible, dependable, reliable and well-educated.

Depending on the age of child but especially thinking of biology and chemistry classes I think it is valuable to teach the person how to create different activities with the subject matter to learn the material. It is important to know that people learn different ways and have different needs when it comes to learning. I have a B.S. in Biology with an emphasis in microbiology and zoology with a minor in chemistry. For the past 10 years I have worked in the science industry in many facets. Many facets only because I was trying to decide what I wanted to go graduate school for only to decide not to go once I was accepted. I have gained experience in the biotech industry working with RNA, in the newborn screening laboratory for the state health department working with recessive diseases. I am now a clinical reagent application specialist for Waters Corporation.

Perhaps stemming from my time as the owner of a successful construction company, I've found that I learn best when I'm provided mental imagery, which often means the employment of analogies and metaphors. Cell biology became simplified when viewed as the textile manufacture and the subsequent distribution and utilization of the products. Due to being a non-traditional student I've also realized that patience is imperative. I've felt like instructors have given up on me in the past, only to keep forging ahead either by myself or with the aid of a tutor and eventually master whatever material was at hand. Also, my experience in the past few years in the E.R. has allowed me to become adept in dealing with and defusing difficult situations. My experience as a non-traditional student has payed huge dividends not only for me, but for those I've helped during my time as a T.A. and tutor. Ten ye

I am a well experienced teacher, with extensive roles in tutoring and other areas. I communicate well with people and especially enjoy working with growing young minds in encouraging and furthering their studies and, ultimately, their personal goals. I am a patient teacher, who believes in a variety of learning styles and abilities. Because of my extensive experience, I will help your child find their best learning strategies and teach them to harness their strengths and improve their weaknesses. I am easy-going, enthu

As a college graduate and aspiring medical school applicant, I greatly value education and recognize the importance of not only educating yourself, but also sharing knowledge with those around you. I earned a Bachelor of Science in Biology from Union College(NY) in 2009. I have significant experience writing and editing research and lab reports. Additionally, I minored in History while at Union and have an understanding of both US and African history. Applying education to real life situations and problems is something I feel makes learning more enjoyable and efficient. Everyone learns differently and it is important for each student to discover what method is best for them. My goal as a tutor is to provide students with the best education possible. I am a hardworking and motivated individual who had the patience and consideration to deal with children.
