Genetics Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Lorida, FL

I believe all children are capable of learning. We need to adjust to help everyone learn. Student- centered learning and constructivism are key components in student learning. Once again, my personal belief of education is "You only get out what you put in". I have taught for a total of 11 years. I taught in Prince George's Public schools for 5 years, Hyde Leadership Public Charter School in DC for 1 year, Avon Park High School for 2 years, Hardee Junior High for 1 year, and Bill Duncan Opportunity Center (alternative school) for 2 years. I have a Bachelor's in Biology and certifications in Math (5-9), Biology (6-12), and Middle Grades Integrated Curriculum (5-9). I plan to also attain a certification in ESOL and Reading by the end of the year.I am also interested in getting two Master's, in Counseling and Nursing.

I've worked as an environmental scientist for the past 15 years. I have a B.S. Biology/Limnology and completed General Chemistry I and II, Organic Chemistry I and II, Biochemistry. I have many years of experience related to preparing scientific reports. I enjoy tutoring. I enjoy sharing what I know and have learned with others. I have a 7 year old son and believe patience is a valuable characteristic of mine. I'm also very easing going and get along well with most people. When tutoring, I first attempt to help someone understand a subject especially chemistry as structured in the text book but whenever possible, if the situation requires, I will try to simplify the subject in any way possible until the student makes it over the hump and then the text version usually becomes more clear.

As a teacher, I realize many students need exra help to comprehend their course material. I enjoy giving that extra help and working with the student to determine which style of learning best suites them. It is possible for every student to succeed. It is my goal not only to have the student understand the material but to enjoy the process. I explain and show the concepts to the student in a clear easy to understand way. I encourage my students to participate in the learning process. My greatest joy is to see the light in a student's eyes when they "Get it". As a private school teacher I hav taught all the math,science, and history courses at the middle and high school level. I have also tutored college Algebra and Trigonometry.

My philiosphy is to motivate through praise. I believe in speaking words of encouragement to the students. I have seen positive words manifest into good results for the students.

I have always loved education. I believe that education should consist of not only textbooks and facts, but should be about understanding life and how we fit into society. I believe the most important parts of teaching are being a guide for students, teaching them how to flourish in the world around them, inspiring inquiry and creativity, and working collaboratively with other teachers, students, parents, and the community. After graduating 12th in my high school class, I decided that I wanted to continue on with my formal education. With one year of college under my belt, I continued to finish my AA degree and will be receiving my BS degree in Education in Secondary Biology in December of 2010. During college, I worked in the office of the Vice President of the college where I gained office and technology skills. I spent two semesters tutoring in the tutoring lab at Indian River State C

Throughout my educational career, I have gained a strong foundation of knowledge in various disciplines. I hold a BA in Psychology and have also completed pre-medical requirements during my time as an undergraduate. My liberal arts background has led me to develop extensive reading, writing, and analytical skills. These skills are complemented by a solid understanding of mathematics and science. Over the past year, I have tutored students in reading, math, and science. I believe in the potential of every child and am committed to their academic achievement. Through my work with children and adults with disabilities, I have learned patience and understanding; qualities that I believe make me a strong educator. I believe in modeling a learning curriculum to meet the specific needs of a child and pride myself on finding novel ways to make education fun and interesting. The best part o

I received my Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Penn State in 2007. Since then, I spent the next two years as a child and adolescent counselor. I taught clients in a group setting about social and interpersonal skills, as well as aiding teachers in various school subjects. In high school, I took part in an extracurricular program which tutored local middle school children with homeworks and projects after school. I was also a teacher's assistant at my Chinese school, and often conducted lessons by myself. With a psychology background and as a behavioral-modification counselor, I believing in applying operant conditioning to set and reach goals. It is NOT corporal punishment. Rather, it's a system of rewards that are age-appropriate and motivational to help the learner achieve the desire result at a reasonable pace, which will get rid of the fear and overwhelming feelings of learning

There is no greater joy than imparting knowledge to our future generations. I believe children’s minds are like sponges and readily accept a great amount of knowledge. It is my goal to assist them in soaking up information and forming a solid foundation for their future. I approach learning in several different ways as every child’s needs are unique. I hope to encourage children to truly understand information and relate it to everyday life. Once a child can relate what they are learning it reinforces the importance of a good education. I look forward to seeing a student's face when they finally understand something they previously had trouble with. At the University of Central Florida I attended the Burnett School of Biomedical Sciences. There, I earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Molecular and Microbiology. My focus was primarily science based classes therefore, I have gre

I have had several creative and scholarly works published. If you are able to publish a scholarly work, it will look great on a resume or a scholarship application. I am also able to provide assistance for students preparing for GRE, LSAT, SAT, or ACT. I scored in the 93% on the GRE verbal after studying for only two weeks.

At college I worked as a tutor for two years in the areas of chemistry and mathematics. I earned BA's in chemistry and biochemistry and have some laboratory experience. Having been educated at a liberal arts school has also given me the opportunity to study philosophy and sociology. I also write well, as writing is emphasized in all disciplines of study at Knox. Previous to my college education, I was also active in my tutoring program in high school. The most important part of teaching is to teach students the principle or concept behind a subject. I do not believe in making students memorize absurdly large lists of facts in order to pass a test. Learning should be more fundamental than that. When a student has been successfully taught something, the student should be able to solve an array of problems with a common theme.

For three years I taught college students here in Florida Humanities and Anthropology. I have also privately tutored middle/high school and college level students in mathematics. We educate students into the discipline of their choice in order to facilitate the achievement of their goals. The students in my classroom have a dream and that is the reason they are there, to pursue that dream. As an educator, my mission is to act as the facilitator of that dream.

I have worked as a tutor in a program called Tutoring Tables, where students attended to obtain help in various subjects. My responsibilities consisted of helping students with questions and homework, organizing study sessions, and providing guidance to improve study skills. The subjects under my expertise are Biology and Chemistry; however, my academic background has provided me with strong knowledge in math and other sciences. Also, I am a Spanish native speaker and half of my college credits were awarded in a Spanish-speaking University, thus I have extensive grammar skills and vocabulary knowledge. The main purpose of tutoring is the development of strong study skills. When students are unable to solve a particular problem, they usually have not been able to understand the basic concepts needed to find the solution. By learning strategies to analyze the information given, students ar
