Love to share my passion for All things science

I have worked in the aquarium industry for 19years. I have indepth knowledge, practical skills related to the marine science field. I grew up in a VA suburb of Washington, DC and spent my summers and holidays from college as a page, intern, and tour guide in the US Capitol. I have a passion for learning that I would love to share with students in need. My most recent job as Associate Curator at the Georgia Aquarium required that I have indepth knowledge of a wide variety of marine and freshwater habitats, ecology, fish ID, water chemistry, and management of a team of biologist.
I think science is fun and exciting. I like to teach with a hands on approach.

My teaching style is based on the student’s learning style. Each child is different and may require different teaching methods to facilitate learning. Some children are more visual and may require more interactive exercises to learn. I do not believe in spoon-feeding information to children but taking the time to ensure that they fully grasped the concept of a problem and are able to think through a solution on their own. I will work to develop their critical thinking skills and will challenge them, so that they are not just passive learners but active participants in the cognitive process. I am patient and will work at the student’s pace encouraging him/her to give his/her best effort to the given task.
As an undergraduate student I was always in the top ten percentile of my math, chemistry and biology classes, and as a result, I tutored fellow college students in those respectiv ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a Facilitator for Western/Delta Air Lines, I was sent to a Training Mapping class in Los Angeles, Ca. to master writing training materials based on the Fogg Index of the trainees. I have also been a Substitute Teacher in the Fayette County School system from 2003-2008 in various grade levels (kindergarden to High School. The subject levels that I have taught range from art, mathematics, English, History, and Science. My repore with the younger generation is my forte.
I have always enjoyed teaching at any level. One of my strengths is to recognize the personality of the student and contour my style to that particular personality. In a class room setting, I would focus on a student that I feel is shy and afraid to speak. I would gently get them involved with simple questions to build their confidence so that others in the same realm would understand and overcome the fear associat ... read more

I have always encouraged my own children to find something they love as a career. They could see from my example, that loving what you do makes all the difference in the world. I know that children are individuals and do not all learn in the same way. There are many paths to success. It just takes getting to know the student and finding what works for him/her. I think knowing the student and all that they bring to their learning experience, helps you to find what is effective in teaching them.
I began teaching in the Valdosta City School System also being a reading teacher for students with problems. Gwinnett County School System (1974-1990).

I have been working with children of and on all my life. My credentials are personal as well as professional. From a personal perspective, I have a child with autism for which I have spent many hours tutoring in the afternoons. I also have another daughter, who has struggled in school. I have spent many hours in the afternoons tutoring her. I also volunteered in a high school helping Special Eduacation kids in the Resource classrooms. This experience along with my education, I believe, qualifies me as a tutor.
I believe in one-on-one teaching and hands on. These to me are the best way to get through to some children. Online tutorals are a new way to reach kids and adults alike, since everything now is media based. I feel this is an effective way to reach students. I will give my best to demonstrate this way of teaching. Hands on and visually seeing also helps to accelerate t ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have always had a passion for students, Math and teaching. I have been tutoring since I was in high school. My tutoring skills range from elementary to college. During my student teaching experience, I had the opportunity to work on a team with special education students. I had a chance to use my creativity in creating lessons that would reach each student.
I believe the best approach to teaching a student is first learning what kind of learner they are. This discovery guides the type of instruction I use. I also always build on a student's prior knowledge, which enhances retainment. I am very patient and believe in positive reinforcements. My ultimate goal is to make my students successful. I want to teach my students how to fish, not just give them the fish.

I have come to understand that different people have different ways of learning. I try to utilize any method that I think may be helpful to the student. Whether the student is a visual, auditory, or kinesthetic learner, I have the patience and willingness to provide a way for them to embrace the concepts in the best way I can. I value and understand the benefit of an education, and I can only hope that I am able to instill that belief in other students.
I have always had a strong passion and natural inclination toward the fields of math and science. In high school, I was a member of our Varsity Math Team and was named the Outstanding Science Student for the Class of 2006. This love and knowledge of science was further developed in my college career as I worked toward earning my Bachelor of Science in Chemistry with a minor in Biology. Being a science major, I was also required to t ... read more

I attended private(Catholic) school from kindergarten to 12th grade and had a very structured academic lifestyle. I believe in being firm, but understanding. I believe in working until we can get it right. Though I may be the Tutor, I still believe any relationship will allow each individual to grow. Whatever the student goal is set for that is what we will attain and better if possible.
As a parent and grandparent, I have several years in tutoring grammar school level students. Having attained a Scientific Regents diploma in high school and taking several math courses in college, math is one of my stronger subjects. Spelling, reading are other course I have excelled in the past.

Having lived overseas on two occasions and having run several businesses in many environments, I have a diversified experience base to relate authentic examples to the educational setting.
