MCAT Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Ochopee, FL

My main goal in teaching is not to have the student simply memorize the necessary content in order to achieve an A in the course but it is rather to impart the student with an understanding of the underlying concepts so that they may build upon this knowledge. Understanding the coursework will allow the student to excel in other synthetic classes and enable them to manipulate, construct, and critically think regarding the subject. I have taught many students ranging from freshman to seniors at the college level and can be dynamic enough to cater to each of their learning styles whether they learn pictorially, verbally, with power point etc. As a recent graduate of Florida Gulf Coast University with a B.S. in Biology, I plan on using the degree in order to pursue a higher education but also to teach. I not only graduated with a 4.0 GPA but I also held multiple leadership positions such a

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

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

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.

After graduation I taught English for 28 years. During this time I became a Dept. Head. I also was trained to train teachers in learning styles and hemisphericity. I have adult AD/HD. I began working on teaching methods for AD/HD students. I have also trained over 200 teachers. I have tutored students for the GED, ACT, SAT, LSAT, and MCAT. I believe strongly in approaching each child with a variety of techniques. I let the child explore why, then give concept information. The student then needs to practice, and finally personalize the information. This must be done using both analysis (left brain) and synthesis(right brain).
