More About This Tutor...

In having a science background, I have not only learned laboratory skills and reasoning skills, but I have learned how to increase efficiency, communicate in a clear manner, and write in a way that is direct and clear. I enjoy learning, and I instill that passion into my students as best I can. I grew up with a mom who is an English teacher, so I have developed good communication skills and writing skills from her. I have taught Biology for two years at the college level and I very much enjoy the experience of knowing that what you have been trying to convey to your students just hit home. That is a great feeling.
I think it takes a lot for one teacher to reach all of types of students who are all at different levels of interest in the subject being taught as well as at different levels of understanding. However, I feel it is the teacher's responsibility to give them all equal ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that I can offer a motivational, technological, organized teacher with the goal of enriching young minds to be well educated and well rounded students. My focus will not only be on my students' educational needs but also on their self development fostering their individual growth. I am a firm believer that all children can learn when provided with the toolls necessary and an enriching environment. I pride myself in letting students learn through self discovery while teaching them independence and confidence.
At LSU and throughout my years of teaching, I was provided with numerous opportunities to work with children in many different educational settings.  Not only have I been exposed to different grade levels but I have also taught gifted as well as special education students.  Working with these children allowed me to understand the whole child and taught me the importan ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

After receiving a PhD in chemistry from Purdue University I worked over 20 years in discovery research areas. I then turned to my calling of education and became a certified science teachers for grades 8-12. I taught middle school science for five years. I have since retired but love to stay connected to science and math education by tutoring. I have the gift of being able to take complex subject matter, make it easy to undersand and connect it to the real world.
Students come with various background and motivation levels and ways of learning. A tutor needs to be able to discover within the student the best way for that student to learn. I believe students should be pressed not to memorize facts but to use critical thinking skills, tying things together and seeing relations so a multitude of similar problems can be solved. There are many ways science can be taught. Over the year ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As briefly stated above, I love teaching! I love working with children of all ages. I have been quite successful as an instructor because I have a fantastic rapport with students. Among my qualities: I am patient, flexible, knowledgable, easy going, and have a great sense of humor -- which really is important. I am a big believer in giving feedback to students. Yet, I always do this in a constructive format. I always try to create a successful learning environment so the student may succeed. My main objective in tutoring is to find out a child's strengths and weaknesses. From there, I can garner an idea on how best to tackle turning the weaknesses into strengths. I always give 110% at everything that I do. Helping a child learn is no different.
I have two degrees from college: A Master's Degree in Communications and a BA in Journalism. I have been teaching now for about eight years ... read more

Teaching and working with children I believe is a passion one must have it can't be acquired. All children can learn and can find a joy in the learning process if they are guided well. I am patient and easy going with all especially children of all ages. I believe all children have the right to the best education possible. My goal is to provide and serve the children in the quest for educational excellence.
As a graduate of Texas Southern University, where excellence is our motto, I was driven to acheive excellence in biology. I earned my BS in Biology in December of 2009, which has enabled me to gain understanding in science and math. I have also learned during my time at TSU to write and gain skills in writing due to writing lab reports and many essays along the way. During the last five years I have had a chance to tutor a few of my fellow biology majors in biology.

I have always valued a good education so I earned dual bachelor degrees in English and Psychology from H.B.U. while working and raising two girls. After graduation I worked in college admissions for several years before deciding that I wanted to educate students instead of recruiting them. During the last year, I worked with elementary, middle, and high school students in the areas of tutoring and substitute teaching, which helped me gain a deeper understanding of what motivates students to learn. I have experience teaching and tutoring English, Reading, Mathematics, Psychology, and Science.
I love working with and teaching children of all ages. I am an active educator engaged in tapping into a student's unique learning style so I can provide the best education possible. I believe all students have the potential to learn with the appropriate tools and teaching style. I believe lea ... read more
