I graduated from Presbyterian College with a double degree in biology and psychology and a minor in chemistry. Many of the courses I completed in biology were in the natural sciences such as paleontology, biogeography, and botany, which I flourished in. I also took organic chemistry I and II, biochemistry, and genetics, which I am good at as well. I've taken a vast array of psychology classes such as cognition, drugs and behavior, counseling, and abnormal psychology

I find nothing more exciting and rewarding than teaching a topic or subject to an individual and seeing the expression and excitement on their face when they truly begin to understand the material. I was motivated by several gifted teachers while I was in high school and I believe that patience during the process of teaching, coupled with conveying your belief to the student that they in fact can master the material is incredibly important and crucial to the success of the student-teacher bond. You are not just teaching a particular subject, but a 'process' that will prime the student for further academic growth in the future. Attending and graduating from Davidson College, a small liberal arts college in NC, with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Chemistry was an extremely rewarding experience. I found that the college groomed their students by emphasizing analytical skills--both scien

In 2002 I graduated with a degree in biotechnology. During the last semester of school, I was a substitute teacher, where I learned a lot about children and different teaching styles. After graduation, I pursued a career as a chemist, but I always maintained a second part-time job teaching, in some fashion. Usually, that teaching involved a pool. I have been a swimming lesson instructor for 10 years and have been a YMCA swim coach for 3 seasons, coaching over 200 children per year. In these opportunities, I've learned a lot about interacting with children. I am also a trainer for my coworkers and new employees who join our team. Throughout High School and College, I excelled in Math and Science, and use many of the concepts that I learned each day in the laboratory. I believe that each child learns in a different way, and as a teacher it is my challenge and duty to teach in such a

I am a very analytical and visual person. I break things down for students. I help to make things simpler. Some students need to understand both how and why they reached a particular answer. Otherwise, it becomes nothing more than words or numbers on a page. That is why I use a thorough hands-on approach. Examples and repetition are of the utmost importance when learning. At the end of a lesson, a student should be able to tell you exactly what it is that they have learned. I strive to make learning easy and enjoyable. I strive to make sure that students learn subjects and not just memorize them. Memorization may help you out on next week’s test, but understanding something will carry you a great deal farther. Ever since I was a child, I've loved education. Learning has always been a strong passion of mine. Math, English and science were subjects that I naturally excelled in and fell in

My teaching is simple, every person can learn math and science. I believe that with hands-on learning to support the lessons taught each student can achieve success. I like using my experience in industry to give real world examples of how math and science is applied to everyday life. To often children are intimidated by math and science because of past perceptions, but I believe that if you teach a child how to learn and study anything can be accomplished. After receiving my BS in Chemistry I obtained an analytical position with Pfizer Global Research & Development. For six years I worked in many different aspects of synthetic chemistry whether it was purification, IT infrastructure, or bench top wet chemistry. I also worked in the area of peptide chemistry performing automated synthesis. Over the last year I have tutored both adults and high school students in the areas of mathemat

As a graduate from one of the top PhD programs in the country, I have a breadth of experience in chemistry. At Texas A&M I specialized in organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry and polymer chemistry. My teaching experience includes polymer chemistry, organic chemistry and freshman chemistry classes. My tutoring experience includes 4 years of tutoring both freshman chemistry and organic chemistry. I have highly developed communication skills and can explain even the most complex concepts to any student. I have an adaptive teaching style that I can customize to the individual student or group of students. I heavily leverage visuals and models, especially in organic chemistry. For me, the key is to relate a concept to something a student is already familiar with. I love analogies, and I use them to drive students to think about chemistry.

I have a bachelor's degree in biochemistry from West Virginia University. I also played football in college and was active in tutoring fellow players. My course load was heavy in chemistry, physics, biology, and biochemistry. I have also taken the MCATs in preparation for medical school and scored a 36 (98th percentile), so I am also qualified to assist students in MCAT preparation. I have a laid back style of teaching. I like to simplify difficult concepts and explain in different terms in order to help the student understand it. I am very good at presenting information in a different way in order to make difficult concepts easier.

I personally enjoy when teachers draw pictures or diagram examples to clarify complicated topics so I have adapted an active tutoring form. It involves the student to explain and participate in my session to properly get the hands on one to one experience and confidence to correct their mistakes. I like to teach in a relaxed, but complete manner that insures the lesion has been ingrained into the students mind. My goals is to aid the students so that they can strive for excellence in their own lives. As a senior at Winston-Salem State University, I have strived for high academics in the Biological sciences. I will be graduating with my Bachelors of Science in Biology/Chemistry in June 2012. Throughout my journey through college I’ve learned successful strategies in science and mathematics that could help others. I have gained eight months experience tutoring other students in basic s

Since high school, I have tutored friends, peers, and my younger siblings in several subjects, including biology, chemistry, French, and algebra. As a future medical student with a background in anthropology and French, I am comfortable teaching many subjects as I have had to become competent in the sciences and have developed skills as a writer through my anthropology concentration and interest in clinical research and manuscript writing. Working as a teacher’s assistant in Human Physiology, I developed particular strengths in tutoring biology and learned how to review a wealth of information with a large classroom of students as well as how to focus on the needs of various individuals in the class. I have always enjoyed working with other people and felt that as a student I gained a lot from teaching others. I believe that first key step to successful teaching is to allows the studen

My teaching style has been to make learning fun and easy to remember. When I have taught I've been very interactive with the students and have gotten many compliments from students and patients as well, on my ability to communicate on almost any level. In Medical School, Residency and practice I have always been expected to be in the simultaneous role of student, teacher, mentor and tutor. I can say I have a vast amount of training and expereience in science, physics, chemistry, mathematics, as well as the liberal arts. I score as an ITSP on the Myers-Briggs evaluation which means I am not only concrete in speech and utilitarian in getting things done, I am also directive and attentive in teaching settings. I have done a small amount of teaching at the junior college level and am comfortable giving oral presentations to groups of people.

I am a current teacher for the Princeton Review for the SAT (soon also for the GRE and GMAT), as well as a former tutor for Huntington Learning Center (SAT). A score of 1400 on the SAT allows me the credibility to teach, while a self-awareness allows me to understand the mechanisms and strategies that have allowed me this success. As a recipient of two bachelor degrees, in Biochemistry and Psychology, I am uniquely positioned to help students on a variety of subjects. My curriculum included Biology, Biochemistry, Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physics, Math, and a litany of Psychology courses, including the Psychology of Learning. I am a huge proponent of the dialectic and Socratic methods of teaching, while recognizing the need for the didactic to learn the basic methods of academics. My own experience, as well as my background in Psychology, helps me recognize that learning mu
