My teaching style depends on the student. I am comfortable with trying different study methods in order to figure out why my student is having trouble with a particular subject. I have a Bachelor of Science in Biology and a minor in Chemistry. I love being able to help students feel comfortable with the material they are studying. I have tutored numerous times throughout college, and would like to get back into tutoring students because I find it to be rewarding. As a student who went from living in Germany and being taught that there are many ways of getting the right answer, to moving to America where everything is taught in one way, I have learned to incorporate my tutoring skills to the need of each individual student. I try to figure out what works best for every individual and help them focus on their strength and improve their weaknesses.

In tutoring any of the traditional subjects (Latin, Greek, formal/informal logic, rhetoric, critical thinking), I emphasize the objectives common to them all: (1) acquisition of context-specific vocabulary, (2) a feel for the flexibility and polysemy of a given word's lexical-semantic meaning, (3) a comprehension of the text's thematic, stylistic, and evaluative undertones and progression. The three, taken together, require us to formulate arguments by sifting through material, with an eye to analysis on how texts are crafted for presentation in terms of form and content. The result is an understanding on how these three are essential for reading, arguing, and, ultimately, thinking critically. Subjects Tutored: Besides the aforementioned subjects, I also tutor for calculus and chemistry. I earned my B.A. from Tulane University magna cum laude in classical languages and philosophy. I

As I entered college, I quickly was labeled a tutor by my friends. They would find me before exams so I could give them a crash course on what they needed to know before an exam. Little by little, I had a following of friends and acquaintances who were reliant on me to do well in their courses. Since my friends and classmates found me very helpful, a handful of them recommended me to a tutoring and peer mentoring program at the University, where I eventually worked. I was located in a center where any student could reach me if they needed help in their science courses. I tutored a large range of science courses, ranging from advanced biology and chemistry courses to basic sciences. I like to keep a student well organized. This allows me to pinpoint exactly where the problems are so I can concentrate the time on the problem areas. Organization also ensure the student keeps up with

My studies have covered a wide range of topics in the various scientific and math areas. My research has provided me with the opportunity to draw connections between different methods and to communicate difficult concepts. My education and experience have provided me with valuable knowledge in the area of biomedical and clinical science. I graduate from high school with a double major in math and science and I have a bachelor’s degree in electronic engineering and master’s degree in biomedical engineering. As a teaching assistant I have gained valuable experience leading undergraduate discussion sections in math, science and engineering. In addition, I train summer students on specific research topics . I am also the first and the co-author of some research papers. I am teaching for understanding.

With my rich experience of being a T.A. all the time in school, I have faith to make everything make sense for you and make sure you really understand it. You will never forget how to deal with a similar question when it comes to you one day. To be honest, i prefer to characterize myself as a math guy, not just because I’m an Asian and I got 770 on math in SAT, but also, I make math make sense.

I hold three college degrees in Biology (B.S.), Chemistry (B.S.), and Industrial Engineering (M.S.). I also have practical experience working with organic chemicals and polymers because I was employed in the manufacturing sector for over 30 years. This combination of education and work experience benefits the students that I tutor by applying learned scientific principles to practical everyday use. I will be ready to answer the age old question students have when they ask "why do we need to learn this stuff when we will probably never use it?" I can also teach a student how to study and effectively make use of their study time. Making efficent use of time is almost as important as mastering the subjects themselves. I look forward to hearing from you so we can improve on your success.

My style is open to discussion. I like to ask questions to the student about the knowledge they have and based on that, apply my knowledge to build a strong base to be used as a core to solve more problems. I live the one on one interaction but also love the group discussion. I used to tutor an entire classroom during summer for 6 hours straight. I started around 2005 tutoring for the departments of chemistry and math in Queensborough Community College, from the basic levels in organic chemistry 2 and calculus. I earned my Associate degree in science from Queensborough Community College and finished my Bachelor Degree in Stonybrook University. At Stonybrook University also tutor chemistry and math. During the summer 2006, I had the entire department of chemistry tutoring under my guide. My experience comes from teaching my own classes and from interacting with my students.

While earning my undergraduate degree in Physics, I took advantage of a work-study opportunity at Franklin and Marshall and became a Physics and Chemistry Tutor for the introductory classes. In addition to tutoring science students at college, I also was the TA for a class that explored the role of racism in America's history titled "America in Black and White". Since earning my M.S. from Georgetown University, I have been an adjunct lecturer of Physics and Astronomy at Queensborough Community College and an adjunct lecturer of Chemistry at Dowling College. At Queensborough, I taught and administered Astronomy and Physics Laboratory sessions. At Dowling, I taught a class called "Physical Chemistry II: Quantum Chemistry". Apart from teaching academic subjects, I also am a percussion instructor at Jimmy Osborne Music, a music school in Eastern Long Island. I love opening students' ey

I like to motivate my students to learn science. One way to do that is to trigger their curiosity and use that to guide them through the subject matter. I encourage them to practice problems repeatedly. This helps to embed the concepts in the brain. I am patient and easy to get along with. I have taught college level general and organic chemistry as a graduate student at the University of Southern California. I also have a background in Biochemistry which helps me venture into biological sciences. I am currently working at a biotechnology company as a Post Doctoral Fellow.

I elected to be a stay at home mom after a successful career. I wanted a flexible work schedule and thought about tutoring. I found that I loved tutoring students ranging from elementary to college level. I found much satisfaction in students' improved grades and the mastery of the subject that I was able to impart. I strongly believe that education is the doorway to a successful career and tough subjects such as math and science can be mastered with the right approach. I like to use the hands on approach. I find out what the weaknesses are of my students and address the topics by giving a general review. I present a problem for them to work out. After a few minutes, I ask them what they think is the best way to approach the problem. If they cannot come up with one, I then guide them through the appropriate thinking pattern in order for them to solve the problem. For me repetition of dif

My teaching style is to catch up mistakes and correct them but my priority is in teaching by showing examples or patterns, by practicing repetitions, by having learner write. For instance, when I took the initiative of teaching french to my newborn (now a teen), I used to flip and "read" small colorful one-large-drawing-per-page books with a noun written with its article. Afterwards, every so often and when the child is ready, to go up one level of difficulty, I did just that and my child spoke fluently with complete sentences at age 13 months. Today, her french is so clear that no one could guess she also speaks english. As a passionate of the french language, I am proud to say that I speak fluently the version used in France and that I can tell the difference among many other countries'. As a native speaker, I passed the CLEP examination with a score of 80/80 towards my degree. I speak
