Recently Retired Female Engineer

I am a recently retired engineer. I spent last summer working in a City of Detroit grade school as a tutor. About ten years ago I taught Environmental Science classes at Wayne State as an adjunct faculty. This is the only official experience I have had teaching/tutoring; however during my academic career I frequently explained course material to fellow students and to study partners. During the 30 years I worked as a Chemist and as an Engineer I was frequently asked to explain technical information to a lay audience since I seemed to have a knack for doing just that.
I would classify my tutoring style as "old school." Ladies and gentlemen, the best way to learn a problem-based subject such as math or chemistry is to solve problems; there are no short cuts.

I have a bachelor degree in chemistry and a master degree in environmental chemistry. I have more than 25 years of teaching experience. I taught general chemistry at the Faculty of Engineering of Universidad Catolica Andres Bello (Andres Bello Catholic University) and physical chemistry at the Instituto Pedagogico de Caracas (Caracas Pedagogical Institute). I have also been a translator (English/Spanish and Spanish/English) since 1999, so I know the weak points for those that have English as a source language and Spanish as a target language. In Michigan, I have been a Spanish tutor with a lot of students.
I like teaching. I enjoy watching the learning process to see how a student becomes better and better, improving his/her knowledge with time. I am flexible about teaching methods. Some students need a lot of theoretical aspects, then exercises. Other students need only exercises ... read more

I am currently a senior earning my bachelors degree in biochemistry at the University of Michigan. I have enjoyed tutoring friends and classmates in many of my courses here in college. I was encouraged to apply to be an undergraduate instructor for biology. I was also offered a position to facilitate a university-sponsored discussion group for physics. Additionally I did some tutoring in high school. I enjoy helping students to understand and enjoy the material they are learning.

Share your knowledge to someone else.

I have been a tutor for 23 years and I have taught Adult Basic Education for 12 years. I am still continuing my education to receive a Masters degree and plan to get my PhD. I work for a community college and have done advising, enrollment, testing, phone directory, and student sevices. I have attended many professional development workshops on education.
Critical thinking skills and untraditional ways are what I focus on. However the way someone learns, I will try to set the individual up to show how they learn and work with them. I will implement practices and materials I think will fit the student's profile. I feel a teacher wears many hats and you must be prepared to wear a different one any day.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have nearly 2 years of teaching experience at the college level at two separate institutions. At Monroe County Community College, I taught both lecture and lab courses in basic chemistry. At Owens Community College, I taught only lab courses, but I also tutored students in chemistry. My education is diverse: my undergraduate degree is a double major in chemistry and environmental science with a minor in biology, and I have earned a Master’s degree in chemical engineering.
I prefer tutoring over lecturing, as it allows one-on-one interaction with students and a focus on areas they do not understand. I try to teach by example, and then have the student apply what they have learned to new problems and situations. Since my experience is at the community college level, I have worked comfortably with both recent high school graduates and those returning to school to further their e ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and finding ways to communicate new ideas with different students. I like to use real life examples that students can understand to help them grasp and visualize concepts that are difficult to comprehend in upper level sciences.
As an undergraduate at Oral Roberts University, I volunteered through our American Chemical Society student affiliates as a tutor for college freshman and sophomore level chemistry classes. I also worked a work-study job as a teacher's assistant for organic chemistry labs. I also worked privately for a local family in tutoring their high school student in algebra and science. Since then I've been teaching General Chemistry Recitations for the last 3 years as a graduate student in Chemistry at the University of Toledo.

More About This Tutor...

I have earned a Bachelor’s degree in chemistry with a minor concentration in German. During my undergraduate studies, I was a teaching assistant for both general and organic chemistry laboratories. During my graduate studies, I taught general chemistry laboratory and lecture for four years. I am presently teaching general chemistry laboratory part-time at a local university. In addition, I am also employed as a chemist in industrial research and development, which has allowed me to use and enhance my chemical expertise.
I enjoy teaching chemistry and believe that everyone can learn and understand chemistry. Everyone learns differently and I try to diversify my explanation of material using examples to which the student can relate. I try to help the student overcome the preconception that chemistry is an impossible subject to learn and show how chemistry is applicable in every ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe very strongly in science education. One way of ensuring that today’s children become tomorrows scientists is to get them excited about learning science in their classrooms. I have had experience with children of all ages and I believe that it is important to make the learning experience both educational and enjoyable. I pride myself on providing the best experience possible all the while making sure that the individual, whether it is a child or an adult, is learning.
I graduated in 2003 with a Bachelors degree in Biology and immediately started graduate school at the University of Toledo in the Molecular and Cellular Biology Masters program. I attended UT in this program from 2003 to 2006 and am currently working on finishing my degree. Throughout my graduate experience I was a teachers assistant for various biology courses. I taught Introductory Biology I, Introductory B ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have graduated with dual B.S. degrees in Education and Political Science in 1972 in Odessa, Ukraine. My teaching experience includes 28 years of teaching chemistry, physics, Russian and Ukrainian languages in my native country of Ukraine. During these years I’ve taught many students varying in age from 13 to 18 years old. I’ve taught classes of Continuing Education for certified teachers in Ukraine. As a reward I received a special qualification of: “Excellent teacher of Ukraine #28807."
Teaching is my passion. I strive to make my students feel the enthusiasm I have towards the subject. My teaching philosophy is to engage students in the study by making an abstract idea turn into something real that students might be truly interested in. I believe that students can overcome obstacles with positive reinforcement. I’d be there to help my students help themselves to become su ... read more

My teaching style is participatory. I like to ask questions of the student and have them verbalize what they know. This gives me the opportunity to identify possible gaps in their knowledge and to fill in those gaps. I also try to relate covered material to historical events. For instance, when talking about the importance of analytical chemistry, I like to talk about the Marsh test which was developed in the 1830’s as a definitive reaction for arsenic poisoning. In like manner, I like to relate covered material to the personal experiences of the student. Illustrative examples that I have used are the importance of distillation to the alcoholic beverage and petroleum industries, along with how companies like McDonald’s would employ chemists skilled in flavors and fragrances (i.e., flavorists). All in all, I try to make science and mathematics fun and stimulating, as well as informati ... read more
