Organic Chemistry is one of my top subjects! One of the best breaks from lab work in graduate school was teaching and tutoring! I have taught as a Graduate Teaching Assistant for three years in organic chemistry (6 semesters), teaching both in the lab and in the class. During this time, I also tutored for both Organic Chemistry I and II on the side (class or lab). I also have four years of actual organic chemistry research under my belt!

I am animated and like to use analogies and humor so the students can recall concepts we've covered. Having spent hours upon hours in the organic chemistry student help room at Ohio State, I know all the problems students normally run into. I firmly believe in a visual style of learning, which pairs well with the visual subject matter of organic chemistry.
While I initially went to graduate school to become a research scientist, my focus shifted to teaching after I found out I enjoyed it so much! I took on multiple students in one-on-one tutoring sessions every semester, and helped them to succeed in organic chemistry. College students fear organic chemistry more than most classes, but I assure you I can make it not only understandable, but pretty simple! There are a handful of basic principles (pKa, electronics, reactivity, etc.) that I use in concert with a student's homework, ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I started tutoring about two years ago. I have tutored chemistry high schools students within the last year in Murfreesboro, TN. I have tutored high school seniors at Cane Ridge High School, as well. My tutoring strengths are high in the sciences: Chemistry, Biology, and Physics. I have worked with high school girls to strengthen their math and science skills and learning abilities to prepare them for college.

More About This Tutor...

I am a believer in learning and understanding concepts and principles of the subject being studied. Asking why and how we come to a conclusion rather than memorizing or mindlessly going through steps generates long term success. I believe that this is the best way for a student to prepare for any question or scenario that may be asked or given as well as preparing for future expansion in the subject.
I am a pre-med student at MTSU, and I will be graduating with a second degree in Science this year. I have experience tutoring grade school students in math and reading subjects. I also have experience teaching college students in science subjects. Before attending MTSU, I was a professional ballroom dancer and instructor for five years. I have experience teaching ballroom dancing to children as young as five and adults as young as 70!

A Little Bit About Me...

The greatest benefit of teaching, to me, is seeing the look in a child's eyes when he or she finally reaches that understanding of what you are teaching them. The challenge of finding a new way to help a child reach this understanding is what drives me to teach. As each child learns differently, a teacher must be constantly brainstorming new teaching methods in order to reach every student and address each of their individual learning styles.
Growing up with more than five teachers in my family, I have always had a deep understanding of the importance of education and a drive to teach others. I recieved my Bachelor's in English from the University of Southern Indiana with the intention of completing a Masters and becomming an instructor at the college level. However, upon completion of my Bachelors, I immediately began teaching at Nashville State Community College as an adjunct ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

In college I was a Biochemistry lab assistant for 2 years, teaching labs, grading lab reports, and offering assistance to students in the completion of their lab reports and assignments. I also have a firm grasp of high school mathematics, especially geometry for which I earned a 104 average for the school year. Both of my parents are writers, hence I have always valued the use of proper grammar. In my professional work, I have found that using proper grammar is essential to communicating clearly and effectively.
I think learning happens best when the principle is related to a real life situation and the learner can understand the relevance and see the principle in action. When applicable, I like to use activities or examples from everyday life to highlight the prinicple being taught.

Upon graduating college, I decided to pursue a career in the banking industry. Within a few months as a personal banker, I was promoted to office manager, becoming responsible for the daily operations and profitability of the branch. My new position gave me the opportunity to instruct and lead a great team of employees and to help improve the lives of my customers—but beyond this the position was neither mentally nor emotionally stimulating. In 2006 I decided to go back to school and take the courses needed to take the MCAT and apply to medical school. I am currently working as a nurse assistant at the Vanderbilt University Medical Center and in the process of applying to medical school. I hope to matriculate in August of 2009.

I know that all students learn differently. I try to cater my teaching to fit the individual student. I know what may work with one student will not work with another student. I am patient, conciderate and caring. I want my students to gain some knowledge of the subject they are having trouble with. I think the main thing that I would want a student to gain is knowledge and understanding, also that there are people out there that can help them to accomplish their goals. I also hope that I can be one of the people to help them accomplish these goals.
I am a recent gradtuate of Middle Tennessee State University where I majored in Chemistry with a minor in secondary education. I have recently filed to obtain my license to teach chemistry.

Being a Chemistry major, I have exceptional knowledge in Science and Math. I have worked with children from Elementary to High School. I have tutored/taught highly intelligent children and some resource students. Working as a substitute teacher, I developed many techniques and strategies to get children to understand. While working at a Youth Development Center, I engaged with teenage girls whom were not interested in learning, but I was able to gain their attention and get them involved in the learning process. Many of these students, I helped prepare for the GED test, a test that I scored highly on myself.
All children grasp concepts in different ways and from different methods. I have gained experience on how to pin point a child's learning style and have learned how to become more effective by teaching at a child's pace and level of understanding. So, my teaching style is depe ... read more

My Master’s Degree in Environmental Management from Duke is the centerpiece of my career training as I was driven to achieve a high level of excellence in environmental analysis. While a student at Tennessee Tech I taught undergraduate classes in Biology. I also taught workshops for some of my employers. I have had a long practical career in environmental consulting which gave me many real life experiences that I can draw from for examples. I was required to have excellent writing and communication skills to report findings to clients and write technical reports.
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.

One of my greatest pleasures in life has been the opportunity to teach my children after school, help them with their home work, and teach them how to develop lifelong good study habits.

I have student teaching experience in physical science at the eighth grade level as well as biology at the high school level. I also have prior tutoring experience at a sylvan learning center where I tutored students in basic math, science homework support and ACT prep in science. I'm currently substitute teaching and tutoring a family of three children all in the sciences.
I believe that all children have the potential to become successful, lifelong learners. I also believe that I have the kindness and patience that's required to work one-on-one with students and help explain difficult concepts in a way that they can understand. It is very important to listen to the students and ask them where they are having trouble, and help explain the concepts slowly and clearly. I also understand how some students may feel because I, too, needed a tutor at one time in high school.

My interest for helping people emerges from the fact that I want to be a physician. I always wanted to become a physician so I can help people and that is the reason i love tutoring students to achieve what they want. I am a very patient with my students as I realize that every student has their own speed of grasping the new material. I work with my student to make them dream, dream higher than ever before and make them believe in themselves by achieving their set forth dreams.
