My comments on tutoring Chemistry : I received my BS in Biological Sciences with a minor in Chemistry with honors in 2010. I have taken and received A's in 2 inorganic classes, 2 organic classes. I have taken and received high marks in biochemistry.

I have tutored one-on-one as well as to large groups. My focus is on college level science classes. I feel that bringing creative and unique methods to learning helps student overcome their dispassion or fear. My sessions aim to be positive and motivating. Although I have won numerous awards for my creativity, and presentation methods, the greatest reward have been the smiling faces of my students after the course when they brag about their final grades. Let me show you that you can succeed in science.

I have worked tutoring since I was in College. I used to help students in different subjects, specially english, spanish, math and chemistry. As a native spanish speaker I enjoyed assisting international students improve thier fluency and proficiency in the language. I completed a Food Science degree at San Francisco University in Quito, Ecuador, where I'm from. After graduating from University, I started working at a Confectionery Company in Quito. Working for the Research and Development Department, helped me gain important experience in the Food Industry. Among the main responsabilities at work, I had to run lab trials to come up with a desired formulation for new products in many categories such as chocolates, candies and chewing gum. In addition, I designed their manufacture process and carried out shelf life studies. During my time there I also trained and tutored workers in the p ... read more

I have worked really hard in my life to acheive the success I am enjoying now. I am originally from India and as many of us are aware India is churning out advanced degree individuals at a lightening pace. The educational system I grew up in was a very hard and intense system compared to the US standards, I personally feel for America to be competetive the education system should improve to competetive levels with countries like India and China. I have an extensive background in sciences (physics, chemistry and biology)and math, and since I never used a calculator till I was in college most of my approaches are tricks and tips which are very easy to undertsand and apply.
I am patient and understanding, if students have questions, I will go out of my way to help them grasp the concept. I love teaching, because I think there is always a hard way to learn things and an easy way, i ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have always been a patient teacher and have learned that each child has there own learning style. To better tutor a child, they need to be able to learn in their own style. I understand this and will do my best to target their style to allow them to learn in a way that is easy and fun for them. I try to apply what is being learned into every day life to keep the interest in the subject, I feel that to learn the student needs to understand that the subject really is important in everyday life.
Throughout college, I was a substitute teacher at the local elementary and middle school where I worked with the children in the classroom environment. I also worked one on one with children that were having a difficult time in their classwork. I was also a tutor to the middle school and lower high school students during my Junior and Senior year of high school. I earned a BA degree in ... read more

I recently earned a BS in studio art and my interests extend into math, sciences, and reading. This desire for knowledge spurred me to begin a second major in chemistry, enabling me to continue my math and science courses. Additionally I have an associates degree in graphic design. I tutored chemistry at the college level, and have helped my younger siblings with their middle school and high school homework. I have also assisted with elementary age students for years.
I enjoy working with students of all ages. I believe that every student has amazing potential that can be reached with the right help. I am easy going and patient, understanding that we all learn a little differently.

I believe that students must be able to perform through practice problems to fully demonstrate understanding of information. Therefore, I will check to see what a student understands about a particular topic, give some instruction, and then test their knowledge with appropritae questions.
I have taught high school science for nine years at Penn Yan Academy including: The Living Environment, Chemistry, Environmental Chemistry, and Access Science for Special Education students. I have permanent teaching certificates in Chemistry 7-12, and Biology - General Science 7-12.

I enjoy teaching, especially on a one-to-one basis. I firmly believe that the more interactive teaching is, the more effective it is, and therefore, there is greater retention.
I spent five semesters tutoring students at the Study Center at Southampton College. In my professional life I have a great deal of experience in manufacturing, including positions as a Plant Chemist and a R&D Chemist.

Teaching is really what I take pride in and consider myself proficient at. As a co-founder of Read for the Stars, I helped developed a program for at risk, elementary level, inner city students which involved traditional, sit-down tutoring as well as active learning in order to serve the greatest amount of students possible. As a resident assistant for freshmen males, I have learned how to handle crisis situations and tailor my teaching style to all types of personalities. My favorite part of teaching is seeing the finished product and the gratification students feel when their hard work has allowed them to succeed, because that is when I know I have done everything I needed to do and set out to do.
As a graduate of a small, liberal arts college, I feel that I have a unique perspective on learning. With over 50 credits for my BS in Biochemistry as well as my “core” (including En ... read more

After my first year teaching in Micronesia, I developed a true passion for teaching. I loved being in the classroom and working with children. I have developed patience and leadership qualities through teaching experience and coaching youth soccer. I am a practical teacher and like to use real life problems to help students understand the material. I like to relate the material to students interests.
I have a deep understanding of mathematics and physics developed through a rigorous biomedical engineering curriculum. I also minored in optics which enhanced my skills in math and physics. After university I volunteer taught with the non-profit WorldTeach. I spent one year in Micronesia teaching high school mathematics. The following year I continued to volunteer with WorldTeach in Colombia.

My high school Chemistry instructor had a profound impact on me. Although the subject was a difficult one, his passion for it was so infectious that, by the end of my junior year, I WANTED to be a chemist. I went on to attain Chemistry degrees from Long Island University (BS) and the University of Maine (MS with thesis). I subsequently enjoyed a 28-year career at Kodak in such diverse Chemistry-related fields as lithium batteries, pharmaceuticals, and diagnostic imaging. My teaching experience includes a Graduate Teaching Assistantship at the University of Maine, participation in the High School Educators Conference at the Rochester Museum and Science Center in the early nineties and tutoring my step-daughter in high school chemistry.
In my final semester as a TA at Maine, I was assigned instructing Chemistry lab to a class that was regarded by some as "difficult" and "slow". The s ... read more

While studying at SUNY ESF I held a position as a teaching assistant for Western Civilization. This involved grading exams and papers, preparing and giving lectures, and holding office hours to assist students with any questions or concerns they may have had. I also spent time volunteering to teach and after school science club through ESF Outreach for elementary / middle school aged children.
I feel as though every student will have their own niche. They will have a special subject that they enjoy the most and one that they despise. I think that figuring out how the child studies for the subject they enjoy will lead to an understanding of how to motivate that student to learn the subjects that are more difficult for them. Also, if the student's teacher stays positive and pushes him or her towards success by means of positive reinforcement they will succeed.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have taught high school math for over twelve years. I tutor math and chemistry students. I hold degrees in engineering (BS Civil Engineering, MS Environmental Engineering) and education (MA Educational Administration). My engineering training has taught me the level of hands-on mathematics required to succeed in college degree programs. I strive to prepare all my students for success at this level. Good mathematical mechanics must be augmented by a thorough conceptual understanding. I excel at identifying and correcting student deficiencies.
To serve students in a tutorial setting, I first determine a student's current level of understanding. As specific gaps in understanding are identified, targeted instruction is used to fill in those gaps. Many times work on fundamental concepts or mechanics is required to achieve true and lasting success in the content area. Students ... read more

During my time at the Rochester Institute of Technology, I was a student grader while working towards my B.S. in Computational Mathematics. I obtained my degree with Highest Honors, and an overall GPA of 3.88. I graded mostly college algebra and early calculus. I was required to do the same homework and quizzes the students did, and create answer keys. Then, I would go through each problem and either give full credit for a correct answer and work, or partial credit if needed. By following their work, I was able to see where they made mistakes, and write in notes on what they needed to do. I will be returning to RIT for a second bachelor’s degree, in Industrial Engineering, which also requires a strong math background.
As a tutor, I will examine the student’s work process and correct them where they start to go wrong. One of the reasons I did so well in school was because I a ... read more
