Marine Biology is one of my top subjects! Also freshwater and aquatic biology.

I have work experience as a wildlife biologist and ecologist specializing in rare and endangered species research and conservation. I also have expertise in natural history collections curation and management having worked at three natural history museums over the course of my career. I am comfortable teaching in a traditional classroom, home, or in the field in an outdoor setting.
Emphasize understanding of concepts rather than test taking skills.

Marine Biology is one of my top subjects! Conducted five weeks of research focusing on the green crab in Edmunds, Maine. Presented Research at the Eastern New England Biology Conference.

I understand that everyone learns at different speeds and require different tequniches to fully grasp a subject. I feel it is important to identify a students unique learning style, and elaborate on it in order for him/her to reach their full potential. I focus mainly on repetition; practice makes perfect!
I am a recent graduate from Suffolk University with a degree in Biology and a focus in Marine Science. While obtaining my degree, I completed multiple relevant courses including General Biology, Marine Biology, Biology of Fishes, and Comparative Animal and Physiology, all of which I feel comfortable tutoring.

A Little Bit About Me...

I'm a recent graduate from Brown University, with experience tutoring at the middle school, high school, and college levels. Math and Biology are my favorite things to teach--I love the subject matter and I love to see it "click" with students. In math, I received an 800 score on the SAT, and a score of 5 on each the Calculus AB and BC exams. I also tutored algebra as a high school student. I'm currently studying up on everything from Trig to Calculus II so that I can take a Multivariable Calculus class, so the material is fresh! I'm happy to tutor any student at the middle-school or high-school level. Biology was my undergraduate major, and is one of my biggest passions. My last semester in college, I was a Teaching Assistant for the Introductory Ecology class at Brown, leading discussion groups of about 15 students, and meeting with students one-on-one to review material. I'm wel ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching philosophy and primary goal is to first understand and appreciate each child for their unique abilities, strengths and weaknesses, then to channel those abilities toward a better appreciation of the practical value of science and math knowledge. Learning comes easiest when students find benefits to knowledge. Each assignment represents a short term goals, building a student’s confidence with each successful completion. I find by encouraging students to avoid distractions, focus and manage their time effectively, it is much easier to make significant progress on difficult teaching concepts and retain knowledge .
I can offer a student a broad educational perspective with a Ph.D. in the medical sciences and 18 years experience in the Biotech industry. My teaching experience began on the faculty at the UMass Medical School (1993-1999), where I tutored high school, unde ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am currently studying to become a High School Biology Teacher and will be taking the Mass. Test for Education License in May 2011. In 2009 I joined AmeriCorps and worked for the Mountain Studies Institute in Durango Colorado. While I was there, I held educational workshops, presentations and forums. While in school I helped my classmates in two separate ways. One as a part-time peer tutor, the second as the co-president of the Reef Check Volunteer Club. As such I again got to train members to look for specific indicator species of biological importance. I also worked at a museum of natural science in Granville NY. While here I lead nature hikes and designed activities for elementary school classes and day camps.
I've have always enjoyed working with children of all ages, and find that each child is unique. Each one learns in their own way, and one of my greatest strengths is b ... read more

As a student who has achieved academic excellence at a tri-fecta of prestigious Boston schools, I am committed to promoting the value of education. In 2006, I earned a bachelor's degree in Communications and Hispanic Studies from Boston College, which enabled me to gain a thorough knowledge and understanding of language and communicative arts. I also developed excellent communication and writing skills through writing intensive seminars and public speaking courses, along with essays in many various areas of study. I am currently pursuing a law degree at Northeastern University School of Law and a master's in public health at Tufts University School of Medicine. Completing both degrees in 2009, I continue to develop a wide range of skills. I have tutored elementary and middle school students in reading, mathematics, science, English grammar, writing skills, and study skills.

As an MIT graduate, I was particularly driven to excel in science and mathematics courses so as to be able to apply these to engineering and technology problems. I subsequently obtained two doctorate degrees: one in medicine and the second in law. I am currently working on the development and patenting of medical devices to improve medical care for patients. I have always loved teaching and tutoring and have done it for many years to supplement my income. My students tell me that I can explain the material in a very understandable way.
I really love teaching and finding different ways of using analogies and similarities to explain difficult concepts. I have been very successful in teaching the sciences and mathematics courses in an understandable way. I believe that everyone is capable of learning the material, it simply needs to be presented in the correct way. ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have 9 years of experience in teaching chemistry and physics at the high school level. Additionally, extensive experience teaching/tutoring a myriad of other subjects, such as, earth science, algebra, trigonometry, biology, CPR/first aid, GED prep and various adult education classes. I also have 15 years of practical laboratory experience as a laboratory chemist with increasing levels of responsibility.
To teach is to "impart knowledge or skill to somebody by instruction or example" while education is defined as "to develop mentally, morally, or aesthetically especially by instruction". I aspire to be an educator, as defined above. While I believe in the content of the sciences, I am interested in evoking the thought process to utilize the scientific method as a problem solving technique applicable to all areas of life. Through life, didactic specifics of chemistry may wane, ... read more

My teachers have showed me how to succeed in school and strive for the best. I have been extremely interested in Music and the arts for many years now.

I enjoy working with kids of all ages very much. As my summer job, I teach children from ages 4 to 21 how to play tennis. This has helped make me the person I am today in many ways. I am very patient and easy going and I am considerate of others as well. I am confident in my abilities and I think I would be a great fit for you as a teacher, friend, or mentor.

I believe that that goal of education is to understand the world around us, not to merely memorize facts. I tell my students all the time that I do not want them to memorize anything, but I want them to understand the concepts so that they can logically figure out the answers and apply their knowledge to the world around them. To achieve comprehension, I use engaging activities and discussion, hands-on learning opportunities, and visual supplements to help my students learn. I also believe it is important to learn and apply study skills to each subject in order for students to meet their full potential. I am passionate about engaging and motivating students and love working with students for whom learning does not always come easy.
In addition to five years of experience teaching high school biology, I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Biology and Secondary Education and a Master’s ... read more

I'm patient and listen to the student to see what they get and don't get about the premise of the lesson. Then we get to it. Careful reinforcement of the Correct method will ensure Remembrance and Results. Also, Lessons must be approached within the context of the Big Picture. Students need to realize that there are no pointless or forgettable sections. Basically, communication is key followed by practice, reinforcement, more practice. Learning can be at pace, but laziness and whining will not be tolerated.
I have a Bachelor of Art in History, predominantly American. I also pursued Engineering for my first year and plan to go back to College. I have completed through Calculus II and am also experienced in hands-on mechanical. I have limited tutoring experience, but I know I can listen and respond. Any experience came from helping others in classes during College.
