I have taught for over 25 years in settings as varied as inner city schools in NYC to a small public school in Arlington Vermont, and an elite private school at Stratton Vermont. I have taught remedial, basic, bilingual and honors level classes in Biology, Chemistry, and Environmental Science in class room settings. I have tutored various sciences and math, including Pre-algebra, Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2 on basic and honors levels. I have also tutored students for SAT prep in English and Chemistry. My undergraduate degree as an English major has enabled me to excell at writing research papers during my medical science career, as well as help my students with research projects and papers. I base my teaching on the pholosophy of Eli Siegal: "Aesthetic Realism". It states that "All beauty is a making one of opposites, and a making one of opposites is what we are going after in our

I have a passion for teaching but waited until I gained some "real world" experience. I found that this has helped me relate to my students since I am able to make meaningful connections to their learning. I like to discover what my students already know about the topic and to expose any misconceptions. Brainstorming activities work well for me. I like to help define the topic in common terms, not the classic dictionary method. I use presentation, discussion, videos and hands on activities. Most of what I do is inquiry based.

Inorganic Chemistry was my favorite class of my academic career. I had fantastic teachers and decided when I had the opportunity to give back to academia, I would teach inorganic chemistry. After I finished my Ph.D I became an adjunct professor at a local community college. I have been teaching chemistry for five years. The most important aspect of my teaching style is my ability to relax my students. I believe if you are in a relaxed environment, learning becomes easy. Chemistry is a difficult subject for many students and I am successful in giving my students the confidence that they can indeed understand the subject matter.

I earned two bachelors' degrees from Norwich University in 2011. I graduated with a BS in Sports Medicine Athletic Training and a BS in Sports Medicine Health Sciences with minors in Biology, Chemistry, and Physical Education Health. I excelled and enjoyed the information that was taught to me, particularly in the fields of chemistry and math. Although I have no formal tutoring or teaching experience in the typical classroom setting, I have done plenty of informal teaching. I helped classmates who were struggling in subjects that I understood such as Organic Chemistry, Anatomy and Physiology, Calculus, Kinesiology, etc. I have also taught people of all ages in more physical activities such as skiing and gymnastics. I believe in teaching through examples. Everyone can learn the material if it is presented to them in a way that makes sense. The trick is finding that method. I believe that

While obtaining my biology degree from LeMoyne college I worked with underpriviledged children in an afterschool program. This program was aimed at keeping these children off the street while their parents were at work along with helping them improve their grades. My duties included helping them with their homework and tutoring them in problem subjects as expressed by their teachers. This was a volunteer job that I found very rewarding. While my experience is with elementary aged children I would love tutor subjects more specific to my degree as well. I find working with children and students to be a very rewarding area of work. I love to learn and therefore love to help others learn. I am a strong believer in that with the right encouragement and hard work all children are able to learn. I believe it is important to make education interesting for children and provide "real wor

My initial concern at Union College was about the relationship I would have with students. The students and I quickly came to know and respect each other. Their success became my only focus. I worked long hours preparing lectures and problems. In return I expected them to work hard to learn the material. The concepts in organic chemistry are not that difficult, but students are easily intimidated by them, so I use a lot of non-chemistry analogies and real stories from research to help them gain a basic understanding. I learned to study their faces during lectures and would try a new approach when they were puzzled. I also emphasized the importance of doing problems so that they would apply what they had learned. My attitude was that the students and I were in this together and our success was measured by their level of achievement. I received my PhD degree in 1983, and then worke

I am a Ph. D. Organic Chemist with experience in synthesis of organic compounds from laboratory to commercial plant. During my entire career, a considerable part of my work included training of personnel at all education levels (from HS to Ph. D. level) and involved the presentation of scientific work to the academic and business community at all levels. This kind of training is related with organic chemistry, safety and quality. During my Ph. D. studies, I worked as a Teaching Assistant for 2 semesters. My teaching style involves the introduction and application of the concepts to people in such way that they can apply, not by memorization. The presentation of additional problem sets, examples related to the school level they are working are fundamental to transmit efficiently the concepts. At the end of each training or class, I normally summarize and double-check with the trainee or s
