Chemistry Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Fort Meade, SD

I have a PhD in chemistry, with many years of teaching at the college/university level, and significant tutoring experience. I am a fan of the Socratic method of teaching, where students are led to an understanding of the material through a series of questions designed to help them think their own way to the answer. I have significant experience teaching and tutoring over the past 15 years, from the time I began college and was a lab assistant during chemistry labs, through supporting myself through college by tutoring, and finally teaching numerous college and university courses over the last 10 years. I am able to express myself and the concepts being taught very well, and students seem to enjoy my style and enthusiasm. Science and mathematics are the most incredible subjects ever created by humans, and the scientific method is the means by which humans remove or greatly reduce their

In college I excelled in my education by helping other students learn the material from class that they did not understand. I have earned one bachelor degree in Biomedical Science. This education has helped me gain tremendous skills in math, biology, chemistry, and reading. I have wrote many laboratory reports, research papers, and english papers that have helped me improve my grammatical skills. During my last two years in college I have helped tutor students in math, biology, and a little bit of basic chemistry. I am open to helping any student, old or young, gain more knowledge. I am very open to teaching anybody who is willing to give the effort to learn the material. I am a very patient, outgoing, and reliable individual. I am a believer in finding anyway to help a student learn the material. Sometimes it takes a different approach with every student. Every student does not learn th

I try to teach things at a basic level first. If it seems that my student is understanding the information, then I would move on to more difficult ideas. Explaining complex theories using drawings and examples helps many students. I like to ask students questions so that I know that they are comprehending what I am teaching. Students all have different ways of learning and retaining information, so it is important to find which strategy will work for each student as an individual. I am excited about science and hope to convey that in my teaching. I have a BS degree in Biology with a minor in Chemistry. I also hold certification as a Medical Technologist/Clinical Laboratory Scientist. My career field has kept me current in many clinical science fields such as chemistry, hematology, microbiology, and immunohematology. Part of my jobs includes the instructing and training of 4th year

My education focuses on geology, the environmental sciences and includes the arts. One of my main interests is encouraging students to explore the wonderful possibilities available in the many existing scientific fields. My experience is diverse; I’ve held many technical field positions with the government, I spent two years in Panama with the Peace Corps encouraging and teaching poor coffee farmers in sustainable agricultural techniques, and I’ve worked as a volunteer for the National Park Service, The Nature Conservancy and others. I taught English in Panama, I was a tutor for the America Reads Program, and twice I tutored undergraduate women through MentorNet, an online forum encouraging women to pursue science degrees. I enjoy working one on one with students, and will adapt my teaching style to how the student learns and to what he/she finds interesting. My goal as a tutor is to as
