Genetics Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Groton, NY

I have helped tutor since I was a freshman in high school. I began working with kindergarteners through third grade students on reading and writing. Throughout my sophomore year of high school I tutored middle school math students (ages 11-14) and helped to train our "Mathalon" team. My junior and senior years of high school I mostly helped biology students prepare for the regents exams, as well as continued in the after school reading program for kindergarteners and preschoolers. In college I began tutoring many students for the spanish regents exam and continued helping others prepare for their biology and chemistry regents exams. Although I have not had the opportunity to officially tutor many college students, I was a Teaching Assistant for BIOL101 and CHEM101 (freshman level chemistry and biology) for SUNY Cortland. Everyone absorbs knowledge differently so it is important to cater

I have just completed a PhD in genetics (specifically plant genetics) and I was a TA for Cornell's Introduction to Genetics class for 8 semesters Though my experience is mostly in molecular biology, it can be expanded to general life sciences. I have just completed a PhD in Genetics at Cornell University with a minor in biochemistry and during my graduate experience, I lectured as a Teaching Assistant for the Introduction to Genetics class for 8 semesters. My teaching style consists of asking leading questions to enable the student to learn how to think through problems on their own.

As a graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Biology, I have to say Genetics was one of my favorite sub-topics. It's incredibly fun to teach and the complexities break down easily into a handful of mechanisms. If you need help understanding genetics in high school or college, then I am glad to offer my services! Hello everyone! I am available for tutoring as well as teaching music lessons. I have experience tutoring students who may need more time to process information than is provided in a classroom setting in all subjects, and I'm great when it comes to communicating with kids who are weary from having lessons drilled into them at school. Not to brag, but I was in the top 8% of my high school class and am now a double degree college graduate in Neurobiology and South Asian Languages/Culture. I can teach everything from elementary curriculum to high school and beyond! In addi

I am a recent graduate from SUNY ESF with a passion for education. I am proficient in many fields of science, ranging from earth science to limnology. Although I've never professionally tutored, I have experience teaching middle school groups about aquatic entomology and forest ecology at Clark's Reservation. I have taken several classes where I learned to design lesson plans and how to properly communicate with varying age groups. My teaching style reflects the way I learn best. I find that hands on learning is by far the most effective, a fun educational memory is much easier to recall than a set of hard facts.

4 years of professional and peer tutoring experience through SUNY system schools including University at Buffalo and SUNY Morrisville, and occasional private students from schools SUNY Albany, Cortland, and Lemoyne College. Mostly upper level science classes. Also experienced in preparing for health related graduate and undergraduate exams including the GRE, MCAT and the NLN entrance exam. My track record with students speaks for itself and I've been happy to help students improve in pursuit of their academic goals. Based on students learning style, an overview of the material is presented, followed by hands on activities to reinforce concepts.

Effective teaching comes by teaching the student to learn how to learn. All people are generally intelligent, but in different aspects of intelligence. All people can learn, but at varying speeds. Learning how to learn is increasing the speed of learning in those aspects of intelligence in which one is inept. Chemistry is a very abstract science, and many people find it confusing. Chemistry requires all the faculties of teaching, like 3D visual aids, memory tricks, and most importantly, analogies. I often consider chemistry a science of analogies. Concepts in chemistry are also like bricks to the over all edifice of its understanding. Often times students don't understand one concept because they don't thoroughly understand another. My teaching style varies from individual to individual because everybody learns differently. Sometimes just re-phrasing the same concept differentl

For the past five years I have provided personal tutoring to both the Ithaca Community and the Ithaca College Community. I have also spent the past three years working and volunteering at the Ithaca Youth Bureau with children of various ages in both a tutoring and non-tutoring. As a recent graduate from Ithaca College with a BA in Biology and concentrations in Mathematics and Anthropology, I feel highly qualified and enthusiastic to assist your student. While math and biology were my most prominent subjects in college, I also enjoyed and excelled at writing for both the sciences and the humanities. With a diverse set of skills, I am eager to work with your student. My teaching style is sensitive, enthusiastic, and patient. In both tutoring and non-tutoring settings I believe it is imperative that students feel comfortable. It is always my goal that students feel able to volunteer w

I was fortunate to be able to enter college full-time at the age of fourteen. This gave a great opportunity to pursue a wide variety of interests and still graduate slightly ahead of my peers. As a result I had almost completed the requirements for majors in several subjects, including chemistry, German, music and the subject I received my degree in, biology. In addition to taking courses in these subjects, I was able to work as a German tutor for over a year and as a teaching assistant for two sections of first semester organic chemistry. I have always enjoyed teaching people in a one-on-one or small group environment. It allows me to tailor my teaching style to fit the individual student or group I’m working with. I enjoy using creative methods to teach a topic, including creating multiple ways to explain a term or concept and providing analogies to concepts that are familiar to t

I have earned my bachelors degree in Biotechnology. I will be finishing my masters in education May 16, 2010. I am pending a teaching certification in Chemistry and Biology which should be granted September 1, 2010. I have worked with all different age groups. Recently I worked in an environmental laboratory where I performed what is taught in the biology and chemistry classroom on a daily basis. I have had a great deal of experience working with youth in many different situations and despite my enjoyment for laboratory work I found myself excited to enter into the teaching profession. My previous experiences provide a unique benefit in the classroom. I do not only have the science knowledge but I bring real world practicality of the material being taught. Students will relate with the realism of how science affects their daily life. During my student teaching placements I h
