Biology is one of my top subjects!

I believe that all children should have the opportunity to learn in a way that is best for them. Every person is different, and that includes the methods they use to learn. I know that the best way to really gain knowledge of something is to have it presented in a manner that is best suited to the individual. Because of that, I am committed to teaching with the individual in mind.
After college graduation, I taught Algebra, Algebra II, Geometry, Earth Science, Biology and Chemistry for one year at a private school in Fresno, CA. I then moved to San Jose, CA and taught at Valley Christian High School. I taught Algebra and Algebra II for one year and then taught Biology and Honors Biology for two years. I also taught Algebra in summer school to students that required more of a smaller, one on one environment to learn. During this time, I earned my California teaching certifica ... read more

Highly Qualified Certified Master Teacher

As mentioned in my earlier description, I have eighteen years experience as an educator. I have taught students of all ages from early childhood through college and non-traditional adult education. I believe in making learning fun and engaging by relating concepts to points of interest for the individual student.
Tutoring differs from teaching in that "style" is replaced by method. Some of the methods I have used in the past are rhythm and music, neumonic devices, and of course, drill and practice. I have been told that I am gifted with presenting material in novel ways.

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy being with children, watching them progress and develop as they learn. There is nothing more satisfying than watching the joy of a child who masters a new task. Adolescents are my favorite people in the world. I connect easily with them. I honor every youth's abilities and strengths and help them work on their deficits with patience and respect. I believe firmly that each child can be engaged.
I have more than 15 years experience in the public schools at both the elementary and high school levels. My experience entails working with students who have a variety of needs including learning differences, emotional needs, mental health issues and behavioral needs.

More About This Tutor...

Since graduating with my Chemistry degree in 1997, I have volunteered off and on within the classroom, mentoring and tutoring children of all ages. I have several younger siblings and children of my own, so I have taken the many opportunities to go in and out of the classroom as a classroom parent, after school program teacher, guest speaker, and mentor and judge for the Future City competition (an annual engineering competition for middle school children). My industry is nuclear. I have taken many opportunities to speak with students about considering the nuclear field and sharing my own experiences in the industry.
My teaching style is adaptive. I believe everyone has the capacity to learn. The approach to learning is what makes the difference. Being a mother, I love children and am very patient. I also know that kids have their own distinct personalities and I address each chi ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have always enjoyed transferring knowledge to either a single student or an audience. It is a wonderful feeling knowing that you were able to provide information that was perceived as valuable. With respect to teaching/tutoring, I am patient, probing, and respectful. I see my goal as a tutor as (1) to identify the specific needs of the student, (2) to ensure that these needs have been addressed for that subject, and (3) to ensure the student gained confidence in their ability to be tested in all areas of that subject. I have found that I am most effective when working 1 on 1 or with small groups.
As a retired research scientist from major pharmaceutical company, I have enjoyed teaching coworkers about the technology and scientific skills needed to excel in performing their job. I have given lectures to a variety of audiences, from medical students to college students. My ... read more

I love everything about working with children. I believe that everyone can learn if taught in the manner in which they can understand. I believe a teacher/tutor should try to adapt and change their methods to assist and engage the child in a productive learning enviornment. I believe that everyone has a role in the growth and success of a child's education. My goal is to provide the child with adequate resources and guidence needed to gain academic greatness. I am a hands on teacher because I believe individuals learn better when they are engaging in that which they are learning.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate of three university programs, I have a strong drive and desire for fostering learning in myself and in others. I have a doctorate degree in biology and two master’s degrees in biology and business administration respectively. The experience I have gained from my tenure as a graduate student and postdoctoral researcher has allotted me with a broad understanding of science, math and critical thinking. During the past ten years I have served as a mentor, advisor and educator to students in biology and science in general. I have taught a wide range of students whose interests were not necessarily science based and have helped them appreciate the intricacies and importance of having a basic knowledge of science and technology.
I enjoy teaching and working with students of all ages and education levels. I believe that all students are able to learn if given the right tools ... read more

I have found a great place in teaching, especially tutoring, due to my desire to help other people. I enjoy walking students through new information and giving them a firm understanding of the concepts and facts. I believe that there is nothing outside of a students grasp. I present the information straight forward, then use analogies and metaphors to relate the information to the students on a different level, giving them a more solid comprehension of the material. Seeing the student not only succeed, but retain the information and a confidence over the knowledge is the most rewarding experience.
I finished high school with a high aptitude for Math and Science. I enjoyed AP Calculus, Ap Biology, Anatomy and Physiology, and Advanced Chemistry. After a year as an Engineering Major, I decided to switch to Music Education. I have a degree in Music Education. In Arizona I recei ... read more
