Marine Biology Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Mehama, OR

I have a Masters degree in anthropology (with minors in zoology and philosophy) and a Bachelors degree in zoology (with a chemistry minor) from Oregon State University. I have tutored high school students in math, science, reading, and writing for the Upward Bound program, was a teaching assistant in college biology laboratory and biological anthropology courses at OSU, and later a teacher of bioanthropology at Klamath Community College, OSU (online and on campus) and Western Oregon University. I was laid off in December 2009 due to budget cuts, but continue to present lectures and write scientific literature. I also home school my daughter in reading, writing, mathematics, and natural science. I am very passionate about teaching at every age level (e.g. my daughter is 7). I am patient and kind and believe that instilling self esteem is one of the most important aspects of learning.

As a student of the College of Science, I excel both at detail in quantifiable information , and the ability to translate professional speak into everyday language. I excel in English, Science, and Psychology. I have been tutoring for five years and homeschool my 8-year-old stepdaughter. I take the time to assess each students learning style and tailor the material to their individuality. This makes learning fun and memorable. I am patient, easy-going, and able to quickly adjust to changing moods of students. Hands-on learning is my favorite way to teach.

I enjoy teaching. There is something about the educational process, transfer of knowledge to students, that I have always found satisfying. It has been my experience that learning is an active process rather than a passive one. Thus I have seldom “taught” students anything. Rather I have enabled the students to learn. My teaching and curriculum development experience provides me with an understanding of the needs of community colleges students. I therefore have tailored my teaching techniques to ensure the success of those students. By and large my teaching evaluations over the years show that students have appreciated my ability to explain difficult concepts and the interest I take in the progress of the students. I have a PhD in Zoology from The Ohio State University and over the past 25 years I have taught at Columbus Technical Institute and Portland State University. I hav

I spent two years teaching and tutoring Autistic children. I aided in routine skills, verbal skills and dealing with change. I have worked with two different children on these skills. I also have extensive skills in writing and researching for my research papers. I also have great knowledge of APA format and can write an essay in no time flat. I love working with children. I have helped with pre-K and grade school children with an emphasis on working with Autistic children. All children can succeed in school given the right tools; just because they do not get the idea from one method does not mean that they won't get it from a different method. I think that all children can learn regardless of age, learning ability or other status, if given a chance.
