My comments on tutoring Study Skills : Tutor Certification. Research project for certification included study of developmental learning strategies.

My style is age-appropriate: I modify my approach to accommodate age, learning level, personality and a combination of abilities and interests. My philosophy is that it is the instructor that should make adjustments on behalf of the student, not the other was around. Any good teacher can accommodate any student with the ability to understand people.
Experience includes teaching in public and private schools prior to and following tutor certification. Research for Tutor Certification focused on the study and analysis of adult learning problems stemming from poor learning and education experienced of youth. The study included exchanging past negative experiences for positive ones which substantially increases current abilities and progress. College Algebra students were in the study. While my credentials include college level learning, my experience is not exclusive to that level. ... read more

I'm looking forward to working with you to achieve goals!

My experience is mainly with writing and reading comprehension, but I do have a Bachelor's in Economics. I was a tutor for Macro and Microeconomic principles for 1 year and was a Teacher's Assistant for an advanced Rhetoric and Composition class for 3 years. I have completed my Bachelor's with a 3.7 GPA while keeping a job. Additionally, I recently got into UCLA's MFA film program.
I tend to talk casually with the student and try to understand goals before delving into the material. The relationship is important to me.

Lets conquer chemistry together!

I have tutored students in general and organic chemistry materials. I have worked with students on how to solve math problems, understand key concepts, prepare reaction mechanisms, solve spectroscopy problems and understand organic and general chemistry reactions. I have also worked with students as a teaching assistant to help them understand how to perform laboratory reactions, operate equipment such as distillations, IR, NMR and other type of lab work.
Back and forth with the student. Ask questions, but also work with the student to understand how and why a reaction takes place. Discuss multiple pathways to solve a problem.

More About This Tutor...

In having a science background, I have not only learned laboratory skills and reasoning skills, but I have learned how to increase efficiency, communicate in a clear manner, and write in a way that is direct and clear. I enjoy learning, and I instill that passion into my students as best I can. I grew up with a mom who is an English teacher, so I have developed good communication skills and writing skills from her. I have taught Biology for two years at the college level and I very much enjoy the experience of knowing that what you have been trying to convey to your students just hit home. That is a great feeling.
I think it takes a lot for one teacher to reach all of types of students who are all at different levels of interest in the subject being taught as well as at different levels of understanding. However, I feel it is the teacher's responsibility to give them all equal ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

After many years as a student, I recognize what a difference a knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and caring teacher can make in a child's educational experience. I strive to fulfill this role, emphasizing interactive and hands-on learning at deeper levels of processing. I have worked with students struggling with motivation, learning disabilities, psychological, and physical issues; I firmly believe that all children can learn, and learn best if their needs, barriers, and learning type (e.g., auditory) are considered individually. I am patient, flexible, non-judgmental, creative, and caring. I am passionate about working with and for others.
I recently graduated Summa Cum Laude with a BA in Psychology and a minor in French. During my college experience, I worked with students of various ages, from elementary school through college, in different capacities, including tutor, mentor, ... read more

As an honors graduate of a selective liberal arts college, I have had the opportunity to develop my critical thinking and writing skills in an environment that allowed students to take an active role in their learning. During my undergraduate career, I was selected to serve as a Peer Tutor at the Vassar Writing Center, working one-on-one with students at every stage of the writing process. In college, I also had the opportunity to tutor 2nd graders at local elementary schools.

Read More About Melanie W...

I currently work as a professional science/health writer, and I have a keen grasp of literature comprehension, grammar, and composition. I have tutored students in English, math, and science. Additionally, I have volunteered as a soccer coach, Sunday school teacher, and "Hands-On Science" instructor in the classroom. I previously taught private swimming lessons and piano lessons for children.
I believe the key to academic success is ensuring the student feels a sense of accomplishment and pride in self. My method of teaching focuses on determining the best learning style and beginning with lessons that will bring about success, and then challenging the student gradually. I try to make learning fun, while encouraging questions and an "out-of-the-box" approach to problem solving. The ultimate goal is to develop an independent and motivated learner.
