A Little Bit About Me...

Science is similar to math where it is important to practice problems. I mostly tutor Organic Chemistry, in which I prefer to help individuals work out extra practice problems (or those assigned by the teacher) to practice concepts. I have a similar approach in the other subjects I tutor. It is best in science to work out hard problems outside of class because then it reviews all concepts needed to answer these problems on a test. My students always do much better after a tutor session with me because of this. It is also a little more exciting than simply summarizing a teacher's lecture.
I am studying Cellular and Molecular Biology at University of Cincinnati. I will graduate in May 2015. I have taken and excelled at Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Cell Structure and Function, Genetics, Biology, Ecology/Evolution. I have also taken math through Applied Calculus I. I was awarded Unive ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have earned a BS in Mathematics with Actuary Emphasis. This allowed me to become very well-rounded as I studied Finance, Accounting, Business, and Computer Science along with my Math core. I have presented two individual research projects at Mathematics Association of America Conferences and learned great presenting techniques and communication skills. Before becoming a math major, I studied pharmacy for two years and also have an extensive background in the sciences. I've tutored college level Biology, Genetics, Calculus, Statistics, Linear Algebra, and English.
I love helping others learn and achieve higher levels of academic success. Working with College students is always neat since the material is challenging and engaging. But, I also love children and enjoy working with them in mathematics, spelling, and science. I'm an easy-going and patient person who feels honored to hel ... read more

I believe in allowing students the room to direct their own learning. Students who believe that they play an important role in their own education find a deeper level of satisfaction and pride both in their abilities and in their studies. Learning should be fun and exciting and offer students the ability to challenge themselves, explore their world, and see the value of knowledge and academics. Individual instruction is an ideal learning environment and offers the opportunity to tailor a student's program of study to their own unique learning style and interest.

My teaching style revolves around the idea of mastering important aspects of a subject area before moving to a more difficult subject area. In our current education system, students are allowed to move to more difficult courses without having the necessary building blocks. Through one-on-one tutoring, it is possible to take a couple steps back, assess a student's current capabilities and tailor lessons to the individual student (i.e. one student may need to back track and practice fractions before moving on to more difficult algebra). I also enjoy working with students are looking to excel beyond their grade level by challenging their problem-solving capabilities with new ideas and techniques in a variety of subject areas.

My compassionate teaching style will be tailored specifically to the student at the level he or she is at. It is essential to make this experience fun, challenging, rewarding and a feeling of accomplishment. A child’s musical development may require a bit more attention span, overcoming the frustration of failures of early technique abilities, mood swings and other areas. Adult learners may wish to learn specific songs, or special techniques. In either example I would customize the appropriate teaching skills for the specific student. A good teacher can make the student’s learning experience enjoyable with a sense of accomplishment. My role is to allow these feelings to emerge, and the instruction to reach these goals.

I like to determine my teaching style by first evaluating a child's current progress and learning style. Learning is a very individualized process, therefore, teaching must also be individual. I am a relaxed person, and I like to find a way to relate material to a child in a way that he/she will not only understand, but retain. Flash cards are great for some children, and other children will learn better with a pneumonic device, while still other learners will make up a song to remember the material.
As an English major, I spent all 4 years at my private instutition tutoring my fellow students, not only in English and writing courses, but in all academic classes in which I had received a grade of "A" or "B". 3 of my 4 years at Lindsey Wilson were spent in the Education department, as I originally wanted to be a high school English teacher. I also spent several summers as a Camp ... read more

I am not overbearing. I am laid back, but at the same time, I make sure that the student learns what he/she needs to learn. I am very patient. I try to respect the student and not make learning seem like a chore. Building a foundation of learning skills, even during a short tudoring session can really change a student's approach in all of their classes.
I have taken education classes at Northern Kentucky University. At one point, I was considering on being a Art Teacher. I didn't finish with that path, but I did gain much experience with children and knowledge during that time in working with students. I have worked and studied special needs children as well. I still consider going back for a Master's at some point in education. I think this job would be beneficial in my goals, and for my students, and a great learning experience for us both.
