As an undergraduate in Biomedical Engineering, I spent four years immersed in the world of math, science, and technology. I have earned my bachelor's degree in BME, and will have completed my Master's degree in the same field in December of this year. In addition to classroom and textbook knowledge, I gained research experience working in a biomechanics lab during my senior year. I also spent three years in college tutoring underclassmen in math, science (chemistry, organic chem, physics, physiology, etc), as well as in Spanish and Hebrew. I enjoy teaching as well as learning from others. I know that each person is unique and has the ability to excel. Some simply might need to be shown how to approach learning in a different angle. That's what I offer different ways of learning the same material, regardless of the topic or subject. I want to show and teach the student how they can approa

In college I decided to major in Biology and minor in Psychology. This was ideal because the exposure to both of these disciplines would be critical to becoming a well-rounded individual. To further demonstrate my academic ability, this year I gained admissions to Georgetown University School of Medicine. As a medical student and a future physician I know that my leadership, academic, and interpersonal skills are key assets in educating children. Last year, I was a permanent substitute teacher at Miami Ferguson High School where I was able to interact with students of all grades. I substituted many different subjects, such as Math and English where I had to adapt to the many roles of a teacher. In January of 2007, they gave me the chance to work with the children affected with autism. This opportunity allowed me to learn about the mental challenges that these children go through on

My family life has always been centered around teaching as my father was an educator for 30 years. I received a BS in biology from Florida International University and also hold a national pharmacy technician certification. My work in pharmacy has given me a deeper understanding of material learned in the classroom through real world work experience. I have tutored fellow students as well as coworkers and have excellent command of my communication skills. I am very confident in my knowledge of the subject matter and ability to communicate it to students. I believe one of the most effective ways to communicate information is finding a way to relate it to something the student is already passionate about. Finding and creating that bridge provides the student necessary confidence for success and is also a very rewarding experience. Any student is capable of learning material given the corre

As a recent graduate from Florida International University's allied health program, I have the desire to tutor students in Organic Chemistry. I have earned a B.S. in Health Science and a minor in Biology. Furthermore, during my senior year in college, fellow peers requested help in Organic Chemistry and I realized after tutoring them that I was capable to help students understand this difficult but yet fun and unique subject. I enjoy tutoring students and I gain satisfaction out of seeing my students understand the material. I believe my teaching style is unique to most tutors. Through some of the struggles I had in college I was able to develop a teaching style that has proven to help students progress in Organic Chemistry. I use molecular models and examples to demonstrate the material. I divide my lecture in well explained concepts and follow each concept with an example and then chal

I love teaching and helping others gain as much knowledge as possible. I believe teaching style is adaptable and depends on the individual. What works best for one might not be the same for another. I try to mold my style to fit the needs of each student. I will provide a positive learning environment with constructive criticism. I strive to make a positive difference the lives of each student in order for them to achieve their goals. I have earned a BS in Biology and a MS in Nutrition Science, which has enabled me to gain a great understanding in many areas of biology and biochemistry. I have three years of teaching experience at the college level and am currently pursuing my PhD in the hopes to become a college professor. Teaching is my passion and I aim to encourage students to enjoy learning.

While teaching, I take individual learning styles into account, enabling me to explain concepts in ways students can comprehend. By developing real-life examples and scenarios based on the interests of each person, it shows the student the value of learning the material and offers an exciting way to remember new information. We engage in interactive conversations that open up the young minds, stimulate creativity and problem solving skills, identify areas of weakness, build self-confidence, and teach students to become self-learners. For young children, I enjoy coming up with games, songs, and other creative ways to make learning fun! Regardless of where they start, I strive to make a positive impact in all of my students’ lives. I studied biochemistry and worked in medicine before I received a BA in Business, where I graduated with Honors, a 4.0 GPA, and the Jan Walters Award in Economi

I believe that the key to working with children is making the learning experience both educational and entertaining. My teaching style is first assessing the student’s weakness and strengths and then developing a learning plan that strengthens their weakness. I have a fun, and creative style of teaching children that keeps them engaged and excited about learning. I am also very patience and belief that repetition in one of the best ways of making sure the child learns thoroughly what is being taught to them. I think that once a student understand that a problem is not as hard as they think it is learning the material becomes easy I currently hold an associate degree in Biology and a bachelor degree in Microbiology, and am working towards completing a master degree in Biomedical Science.

At this time I am elegible to teach Mathematic 6-12, and I am in the process to get my professional certification. I have passed the subject test (Math 6-12) for this certification. As Engineer I have a high level of knowledge in Math. Also with my Master on Education I have learned teaching skills and techniques to be effective in teaching. I have experience working with high schools students and with adult people. I helped these students on the basic subjects, especially in math. I worked one to one with ESOL students helping to understand their classes. In addition, I tought Intro to computers and MS Office applications to adult people. I believe that each person has different styles of learning, learning capacities, and cognitive development. For these reasons learners need a safe, care and stimulating environment in which they can achieve academic success. I think that teachers need

From my many years of teaching experience, I have adopted a few different teaching styles due to the fact that every student learns differently. For instance, some students are very slow learners and some aren't, obviously; and so I may use a different approach based on the student(s) or class I happen to be teaching at the time. I am very flexible when it comes to teaching, and I like to get feedback from my students from time to time, making sure that it's working and they are learning the material like they are supposed to. I am very passionate, very patient and very good when it comes to teaching. I also would like to think that I am a very good teacher, at least that's what I have been told in the past by many of my students. Although I have not taught in the last 2 years, I have been teaching since 1997; I love teaching and I have taught people from all walks of life and students

A recent graduate in biomedical engineering from the University of Miami, I have worked as a tutor for high school and college students for the past three years. I have experience teaching math through calculus II, chemistry, physics, English, and Spanish, and I have also helped many students prepare for the SAT and MCAT exams. I truly enjoy working with my students and helping them achieve their academic goals. I find that though some of my students quickly become discouraged and fall behind in a classroom environment, with regular one-on-one help focusing on their specific difficulties they become much more confident in their skills and begin to learn more independently in their classes. I am very patient with my students and am willing to spend the time it takes for them to gain a firm grasp of the material they are learning. My goal is to improve my students' academic performance
