10 years experience teaching chemistry!

Lots of different ways to approach the problem. If you don't understand it one way, I can usually help you attack the problem from a "different direction."
I have 10 years of experience teaching chemistry labs: general chemistry and organic chemistry. I also have 10 years of experience tutoring chemistry, organic chemistry, and biochemistry at the college level. I enjoy helping people learn. I've often had students say something like, "Oh! I finally understand. My lecture professor taught me this, but I didn't understand it until now!"

My comments on tutoring Science : Through 2nd year High School

I have taught internship classes and tutored statistics at the University level. I have tutored mathematics from elementary to calculus at a junior college. I have been a GRE instructor for the Stanley Kaplan company I founded, owned and operated the Idaho School of Professional Hypnosis for 10 years, teaching hypnosis and hypnotherapy at a professional level. I co-developed the curriculum, designed the teaching strategy, and was the lead instructor.
I use the Socratic method, meeting the students where they are, and using gentle questioning to build on that base. I start with the assumption that all children are gifted learners, and communicate that belief to them. It is essential to create a base of success upon which to build future success. I also spend time finding something to like deeply about each child; and discovering what the child is interested in. When an adult ta ... read more

Fun outgoing student teacher here to make learning easier.

Non professional student teacher willing to help any young adult or child in learning fun and exciting new ways to learn new materials. I don't just take charge and try and make them learn I let them tell me how they can retain the information the way it suits them. I am a non professional student teacher but love to help make learning fun. I am currently enrolled at Brown Mackie College and know how difficult it can be to understand what is being taught. That's why I am here.

I am a strong believer in the Socratic style of teaching which, as you know, helps students themselves to think through issues and problems and discover the answer as we move along. I have always enjoyed leading students to that 'eureka' moment where they have grasped a difficult idea or concept, put it in their own words, and communicated it back to me, the teacher. I do believe that most children are capable of this kind of learning, at an appropriate level with their development, and do remember the information better than if they have learned something by rote, but not really understood it.
The past ten years for me have been spent teaching English and theology in a third-world setting in Africa, Nigeria to be specific. I have been responsible for organizing and overseeing the curriculum as well as classroom teaching since 1998. I was also a teacher at a Community College i ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I like working with children and young people very much. I believe that teaching should always be student-centered. It is my goal to find what helps a person to learn and really work with that student's natural talent and personality. I am very patient and persistent. If necessary, I think it is okay to repeat information until the student is comfortable and confident that they have learned it. I am a good communicator, and I appreciate feedback from others as well. I am always willing to adjust my style to accommodate a student's learning style.
I was formerly a high school English Teacher and an ESL teacher. I taught one year overseas teaching English as a second language. For two years, I was an education supervisor at the Hawaii Job Corps, and it was my job to ensure that the students' academic needs were being met. I excelled at that job, but had to leave as I moved b ... read more

I am a concrete random learner who was successful in an abstract linear system. The way my brain processes information give me a unique viewpoint that can find a way to help others learn and grow. Confidence seems to be a cornerstone for learning. Accepting each student where they are at and for their individual strength, gives us a fantastic foundation on which to learn. Laughing helps us learn.
I have been translating complicated ideas into a language/format that others can understand since kindergarten. I have always enjoyed the process. As a college student at Carnegie Mellon University, I started working at Sylvan Learning Center as a math tutor specializing in Algebra and Calculus. I also found quite a bit of success working with behavior problem students in middle school and higher math. Over the years, I have both returned to Sylvan periodically as well as did priva ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I enjoy tutoring children one on one. Many children have difficulties in school because of low confidence levels, which are reinforced in the classroom by very little individual attention. I believe the more comfortable a child feels in her/his learning environment, the easier she/he will learn. As a tutor, I try to ease academic pressure by developing a relaxed, supportive relationship with the student. I emphasize the positive, stronger aspects of their work, and attempt to highlight instances in which the child teaches me. In this way the child confidently confronts learning obstacles without fear of criticism. It is amazing how quickly children advance when they have an exceptional relationship with their teacher. I love to see children discover the breadth of their own potential.

I take a calm and respectful approach to teaching and tutoring students. I view the exercise as an opportunity to provide guidance rather than instruction. I encourage students to arrive at an understanding of problems and solutions in the context of how they relate to the fundamental principles underlying the question at hand, be it a mathematics or scientific specific challenge. Rather than providing solutions, I demonstrate how to ask the correct questions, how to approach a problem with the mindset of understanding how it relates to fundamental principles and thus draw the logical line of reasoning to arrive at a workable conclusion or solution. I’ve always been of the mindset that the “pencil remains in the student’s hand” meaning they do the work, I am simply there to help encourage them towards the correct line of reasoning.

I have always had a love for math and science. I was able to challenge and develop my problem solving skills in achieving a Masters Degree in Architecture. I have a also received a Minor in Business. My ability to quickly understand and apply math and sciences led me to help my peers in study groups to understand materials and pass tests. I was able to tutor in physics and accounting. Over the last year I have also had the opportunity to help my little sister, who is literature oriented, to pass sophomore algebra. I have always pushed myself towards excellence. I was one of the top students in my class and I made the Dean's list my five years of college.
I love being creative and finding ways to help others learn. I am great with children, and believe that patience and encouragement can give them confidence to excel at anything they choose. I am very easy to get along with. ... read more

I once had a Chemistry professor whose encouragement and unique enjoyment of Chemistry inspired and allowed me to understand Chemistry like I never had before. When tutoring I strive to emulate this professor. Tutoring is wonderful because you get to know how an individual learns best and can help them accordingly. Allowing the student the opportunity to analyze a problem and determine their own strategy is very important. I am there to provide the students with guidance and suggestions that will help direct them to the correct answer and allow them to figure out their own problem solving methods. I am also there to provide the student with structured, specific guidance and to help them learn and understand the materials any way I can.
I have earned an AA in Liberal arts, AS in Allied Health, and a BS in Biology which have enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of math, ... read more

More About This Tutor...

For the last five years, I have been helping children and adolescents with disabilities and, more recently, tutoring students at BSU. After five and a half years at BSU, I graduated with an elementary education degree. I have a background in mathematics and science, as both were previous majors I chose to pursue. During my last year of college, I was in the public schools where I taught and apprenticed under master teachers in both the 1st and 4th grades. Because of my experiences, I have taught a full spectrum of students, finding ways to engage them as well as help them learn.
Due to my background, I have learned patience and passion are essential for a student’s success. Further, not everyone learns the same way. Therefore, over the last five years, I have discovered multiple ways to explain something differently to help develop understanding. Further, I feel that your st ... read more
