My comments on tutoring Biology : I was a biology major in university.

In my teaching, I make every effort to engage the attention of my students. While covering the subject at hand, I bring into my lessons references to a spectrum of other subjects when relevant such as historical context, cultural elements, literary allusions, modern and historical implications and facts and trivia relating to the subject which I believe will not only be of interest to the student but will also provide a more rounded appreciation of the benefits of a wide ranging education.
For the greater part of my life I have been involved in various facets of education. I have acted as substitute teacher at the middle and high school levels for a total of 10 years, 8 of which were spent at 12 schools in Vermont and 2 at 10 schools in Hernando County FL. I held the position of Senior ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages) with a highly reputed language school in Vienna ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I prefer to teach in a hands on fashion, but the most important aspect of my style is to adjust my methods to meet the needs of the student. I incorporate study and test taking skills into most tutoring sessions and specialize in tips and tricks for areas of difficulty.
I have taught elementary school in private and public settings, in both New York City and Florida. I taught high school English and Global Studies in New York city. I have worked as a tutor in general subjects for elementary students, as well as for Reading, Language, and Biology for high school anc dollege students. I have also helped prepare adult students for the TABE, GED, and similar tests.

Everyone has always told me that I was born to be a teacher, that I have an innate gift to decipher what a student needs and to promote success and accomplish goals. I am patient, considerate and flexible. Learning occurs through teachable moments every day, and it is how we respond to these moments that determines our future. Student needs and learning styles vary and educational structure should be adapted to the individual needs of the student. I enjoy all of my students and learn something new from every one. After all, it only takes one idea, one lesson to change a life.
It seems I have always been involved in education, whether through planning/implementing lesson plans, creating assessments or one-on-one work with a student. I have experience in all areas of education with all ranges of students and have learned from each one of them. All lesson plans and standards are ... read more

I honestly did not start out to be a teacher. Teaching was a profession that my family was involved in but I never saw it as something I would be good at. I became a teacher at first out of economic necessity and then realized I was actually very good at it. I was hired the day before classes started and stayed at the school for 24 years. I taught science, mathematics and social studies. For 5 years I was involved with an innovative ‘Student at Risk’ program and was even a media specialist for one year. This past year I has hired by the Census Bureau to test applicants for enumerator jobs.
Teaching is what I do. I have found that I have a skill for transferring information to children without them at times even realizing it is happening. I am not a strict disciplinarian but never allowed my classroom to get out of hand even when it was filled with 40+ students. I ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As an undergraduate at UCLA, I volunteered for tutoring inner city fifth and sixth graders. I found it natural to sense their insecurity, frustration, or lack of self-esteem. I then chose an appropriate starting point in a particular subject, expressed enthusiasm as they demonstrated mastery, and proceeded at a challenging but not intimidating pace. After earning degrees in journalism and later microbiology, I entered the technical writing field. In this endeavor I combined my writing and scientific skills to produce clear and organized text. My subject matter areas in technical writing include biotechnology and engineering.
First I assess exactly what material the child needs to learn and then develop a timeline for reaching the goal. In the initial meeting, I seek to establish interpersonal comfort. If comfortable with his tutor, the child will not hesitate to ask questio ... read more

I want to first stress that I am only an assistant on their learning journey, not the protagonist. I will not do your child's work for them, but I will make sure that they complete their assignment, and we, as a team, complete it to the best extent possible. I know that a lot of children and adults fail as students because teachers often choose their prized pupils and disregard the rest. I think this is grossly unjust, and believe everyone has the potential for greatness.
I am a graduate of North Georgia with a passion for language and literature. I have worked on projects that have been, or will soon be, published. I am a talented writer, and love helping others with their writing endeavors. I am able to read, understand, and transcribe French, however, I am not a very good "speaker". I have worked with different educational levels, from elementary to college, in assistance of w ... read more

I have been working as a private tutor from my home or student's home for 3 years. I have tutored elementary through college level students. I am able to teach a variety of subjects, however my forte is English and Composition. I have the honor of being a published author. I am an expert in MLA or APA style writing. I have also tutored in College Algebra, elementary math, Biology, and Reading. I speak conversational French, and am able to teach up to the secondary level.
It is my belief that everyone is able to learn, and what produces that ability is having support. So many instructors give up on those not favored as "prized" students, and in turn, these students just slide through. I know it takes time and effort to get some students enthused about education, and I make it my goal to help them with this.

I am a recently retired school teacher/administrator. My career has included serving as an elementary teacher of 4th and 5th grades as well as Special educator in grades pre-school to high school aged students. For five years, I served as a principal of elementary and middle schools. I am certified to teach all subjects in these areas and am certified in NY and FL.
My teaching style could best be described as democratic and socratic. I believe all teachers need to be well prepared for the classroom and ready to shift gears when a question might demand it. I believe that teaching and learning are one in the same. Teacher and student should be ready to teach and learn together. I am patient and willing to go as quickly or as slowly as needed. Students determine the pace, and delivery of instruction is based on the needs of the students.

A Little Bit About Me...

Not only do I love to teach and help students learn, I also enjoy helping students develop an appreciation for learning in general. The most gratifying experience while teaching is the look on a student's face, after hours of confusion, after they reach an understanding of the concept. The environment that I believe works the best is one that allows the student to have fun while learning; which creates a more positive environment for future learning. I remember my experiences with teachers that not only instructed lessons, but also brought fun and enjoyment to the experience. I try to follow in their footsteps, and lead other students to a similar appreciation.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a passion for systems and teaching others how to not be intimidated when learning new things. I feel that I can teach anything that I know. From teaching my grandmother how to write at the time that I was learning how to write, I have taught many people throughout my life. I am naturally a good teacher in that I can quickly assess where the student is at then I can also quickly assess how much I believe they can learn in one session. Also I am skilled in knowing how to approach a student depending on his age and background.
When it comes to learning I have always been a very curious person and that is what helps me to learn. I took a logic test at a college job fair and was recruited to work for one of the largest insurance companies in the nation with one of the largest legacy systems, written in COBOL. I learned to read code and to test code and became more proficient and ... read more

With a degree in Special Education and a Masters in Education I have learned about how children learn best. I have a Florida Teacher's License for teaching ESE (Exceptional Students Education), Spanish, Elementary Education, and other subjects. I taught in the Ocala public school system. I have terrific math skills and have taught all core courses to ESE students. I have helped older students prepare for their GED exam as well. Currently I teach Spanish online.
I believe with the right supports all children can learn. I have tutored students with special needs. My goal is to help the child build on their strengths and believe they can improve on their weaknesses. My teaching style is to set objectives that challenge students and support them by building on what they already know. I am extremely patient and professional and well liked by my students.
