Learning is a journey. I have a map but you have the wheels

I believe the best way to learn is to ask questions. The best thought process begins with asking the right questions. As a student, I find that knowing the right question was often as important as right answer. Taking this lesson into teaching, I find that getting the student to ask the right question makes all the difference in their understanding. My perspective of teaching is to help the student to find and better understand their own question and which leads the correct answers.
As a lifelong learner I understand the importance of an effective teacher. I have been teaching and assisting college level classes for 2 years as a Graduate Teaching Assistant. During this time I have taught 6 classes consisting of introductory microbiology, microbial genetics and general biology. This experience has allowed me to develop my own teaching style and led to a greater understanding of both ... read more

Science is one of my top subjects! I have a degree in Bio-medical sciences with a emphasis in Veterinary studies.

I prefer to meet at Libraries or Coffee Shops and will tutor out of my house when it is convenient.I can also tutor over skype or chat. I must insist that you bring all of your materials for the class when we meet.
I have tutored consistently for the last 3 years focusing on Genetics and Biology. I have organized classroom discussions and one on one study sessions for both subjects. I am also proficient general science classes such as chemistry, physics and cell biology. I graduated with honors from Colorado State University focusing on Pre-veterinary studies and classes like Organic Chemistry, Microbiology, and Pathophysiology.

"I did not fail, I found many many ways not to do it."

Patient, Kind, Visual
I have had numerous years tutoring and helping my younger siblings, family members, family friends, children I have looked over, and fellow students.

My comments on tutoring Science : Physical science

I received a B.S. in Chemistry and an minor in Mathematics and eventually took enough hours to hold a teaching certificate to teach secondary Math and Science. I taught Chemistry for 16 of my 19 years and also Math, Physics, and Digital Electronics for a few years. I learned a great deal about various teaching modalities through my years of teaching and I believe I can be a successful tutor in Chemistry. Presently, I am enrolled in a Masters program in IT/Project Management and the knowledge I have gained in this program will help me in the area of tutoring. I find nothing better than seeing a student succeed.
I understand that everyone learns differently. I learn best through visual and hands on , yet I know a large number of people learn orally. I have developed through my 19 years of teaching experiences ways to teach to all the different types of learning styles. While I ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Since 2001, I have had the opportunity to work with students of all ages and abilities. In particular, I have gained significant experience working with students who benefit from alternative learning strategies due to diverse learning styles, developmental issues, or learning disabilities. I find it to be very rewarding to develop new strategies to help students with differing learning styles or abilities master a topic or improve upon their reading abilities. Most importantly, I enjoy the opportunity to help all students reach their potential in a variety of subjects to include: all levels of Biology; Geology; Earth Sciences; Statistics; Elementary Science, Math, and Reading; Collegiate Writing Skills; and Research Methodologies.

Knowledge has come from observation and describing it.

Taught English in private school in Paris, France, Honduras, geography at Lakeland College, Mattoon, Illinois, Houston International University, Houston Independent School District, Houston Junior College, Five universities in China, Fatih Kolegi, Istanbul Turkey. I have written four books on the inside of history, three books on English going back to the origin of English in 1374 from German, French, Latin, and Greek. In this way I present the complex phonics of English while its simpler grammar facilita thited its becoming the international language. Using this method, it is easier for students to learn other European languages. I attended 8 universities for a total of ten years for certification in various fields of education. I have live overseas for total of 24 years in Iran, China, Malaysia, Thailand, Turkey, Germany, England, Honduras, and Bosnia. I have traveled in 49 count ... read more

Love to watch students learn and succeed!

I have been a special education instructional paraprofessional for the past eight years. I worked for 2 years in elementary education and the past twelve years have been with high school students. I love helping struggling students learn and succeed in their education. Math is my specialty but I can also tutor in Reading, Social Studies, and Science. Over time I have figured out different teaching styles for my students who struggle with understanding. I love watching my students faces light up when they really get it!

More About This Tutor...

I earned a Bachelor of Science from The Ohio State University in 1984. My subjects of passion were math and science and I enjoy working with children who struggle in those areas. I have home schooled my son through the end of 12th grade and he was ready for college freshman classes at age 15. Starting in his second grade year, we were joined by a student who has learning disabilities. He also thrived in the tutorial teaching environment. My desire is to work with children who really desire to learn but need that extra time and encouragement to succeed.
I have experience working with both audio/visual learners and a kinesthetic/tactile learner. The kinesthetic/tactile learner had learning disabilities akin to ADD, but still did very well in the small group environment. I believe that children who want to learn will do so given the proper setting and sufficient time to succeed ... read more

I have helped children prepare for preschool through games and activities, and community college students brainstorm ideas for transfer essays. I am very organized, responsible and trustworthy. I have worked at a Montessori preschool and am comfortable using hands-on, creative methods for learning. Each student is different and learning approaches need to reflect that. I have worked with sensory-sensitive preschoolers, mentally challenged high school students, and ESL students ranging in age from 3 to 40. Whether they needed to learn how to tie their shoes, write an essay, the parts of an atom, how to use a conjunction, why the slope of a line is important, or how to write their name, I was there to help.

More About This Tutor...

One of my key strengths as a science and math teacher is that after receiving BS & MS chemistry degrees, I’ve spent over 20 years as an industrial scientist (Allied Signal Aerospace, Eastman Kodak, & Ford). A common thread throughout this time has been to recognize the value of a good work ethic, character, and thriving on being a problem solver. After becoming a teacher (4 years ago), I’ve developed a passion for motivating “at-risk” and advanced students to learn through adept usage of differentiation, rigorous content, and experiential teaching techniques. I especially enjoy doing so one-on-one with individuals! I leave with a favorite quote from Albert Einstein; “If you can’t explain it simply, you don’t understand it well enough.”
I tend towards a "supporting /coaching" style when teaching. Although there is no one best style for all situations, this style highlights the v ... read more

At the outset of the personal computer revolution I sold and supported Tandy computers. As part of the support function I instructed clients in the use of their computers. A whole new world blossomed for me. Teaching clients to use their computers turned out to be a long term and very rewarding experience. During my thirteen years as The Computer Tutor I encountered a multitude of student learning difficulties. By working with the individual students, creative solutions were structured and successfully executed. Tutoring the non-traditional students to achieve their goals was by far the greatest reward. Their resulting change in demeanor was very heart warming. What more can a teaching professional ask? Having a very positive impact on a student’s life and be paid for it.
Three teachers impacted my life not only as a result of the content of their classes but in their d ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

When I was in high school ,I had a passion for physics.I realized that I should know more about the subject,so I took my bachelor degree in physics .Along with physics I studied electronics and mathematics.I really believe that I enjoyed each and every moment of my science lessons and because of that I was honored as the First Rank holder in my university.While doing my masters degree in the same university ,my professors gave me opportunity to know my physics better by asking me to take classes for the undergraduate kids.That was really an honor to me. I had to take a break when I had my kids and its my dream to teach science ,which Iam sure I'll make it happen.So I started again my career by volunteering in cornado high school.

I love teaching and working with all children. 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 regard myself as an instructor who prefers to guide the student through the subject step by step and stimulate the student’s thought process rather than to dictate the answer. I feel that the student who only memorizes the answer and does not completely comprehend the idea being conveyed and will never really assimilate the material. I enjoy seeing children's eyes light up with comprehension and state "aha". I strive to provide a child with the tools they need to succeed.
I graduated with a BS in Physical therapy which required me to extensively study biology, physiology, anatomy, and chemistry. I have also re- ... read more
