My style is dependent on the student. While the end result is having a student understand the material, the way of achieving this varies with each person. Some students require a lot of hand holding while some require a more hands off approach. To achieve understanding I will cater to the students needs.
I have tutored high school students who are college bound during my undergraduate years at William Paterson University of New Jersey. I also tutored my fellow undergraduates. I then pursued a doctorate and was active in many peer study groups where were tutored each other in neuroscience and organic chemistry. I have a love for science which shows through my enthusiasm in imparting scientific knowledge to others.

My comments on tutoring Life Science : I hold a Ph.D in a Life Science discipline.

I believe that stimulating conversation and allowing people to arrive at answers on their own and through experience is the best way to form lasting connections.
I took a variety of Biology classes and Labs at WPI mostly focused on Cell Biology and Molecular Genetics. I recently finished my PH.D. where I studied control of viral gene expression. This work encompassed a variety of biological disciplines including virology, cell biology, molecular biology, biochemistry, and molecular genetics, all of which I am quite experienced in. I also have experience teaching in a seminar format as well as in small groups. As a senior graduate student I was responsible for leading discussions prior to invited speaker seminars.

Become a star, through dedication and desire to succeed!!

I have taught in both suburban schools at the high school level and urban schools at the elementary/middle school level. While teaching I previously have tutored students. My main experience teaching has been various science courses but I have also taught math and reading. I began my education thinking I would be an elementary school teacher but then discovered my love of science so I took additional classes while completing my Master's so I could be certified to teach science. When I began teaching I realized many special education students were not receiving the appropriate accommodations to ensure their success so I decided to specialize in Special Education as I pursue my PhD so I can offer the best education to my students and help them become successful and feel confident with their new skills.
I love interacting with my students and finding out what drives them and what ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate of an intense Honors Program with proficiency in multiple subjects, I have lent a helping hand towards other students as well as those who are younger than myself. From high school on, I served my community as a mentor, and tutor available during my senior year as a PAL (Peer Academic Leader). During college I accumulated many volunteer hours in elementary classrooms and from 2005-2009 worked annually as a summer camp counselor for the City of Milford. Additionally, on top of graduating at the top of my program, I worked at various restaurants full time in college, and worked abroad for five weeks.
The most important characteristic in helping a child learn is to not only demonstrate a profound knowledge of material, but channel one's charisma into helping motivate the learner. Making it interesting, teaching in several different planes, and understanding ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am of the opinion that children should be given clues and lead on to discover answers to questions. In some areas I like them to memorize certain facts which will help them solve problems better. A combination of memorizing and deriving from basic known concepts will help a child solve any problem without having to sweat over it.
I am a Chartered Accountant and have passed the CPA exam. I have been working in the Finance sector for over 15 years. I have also had a stint in teaching while doing my certfication as a HighSchool Math teacher.I have also substitute taught for 3 years in various subject areas.

After having volunteered for several years at different schools in town, I am extremely interested in getting back into the education field. Prior to raising a family I worked in the Norwalk Public School System as an instructional aide. I have several years exposure of working with students at all age levels and have also worked with special needs students. My background in Economics is beneficial for tutoring Math which is a subject that I really enjoy.
Having raised 3 children with different learning styles, I feel I can help students in many different ways. Whether they learn through sight or more adapt to tactile learning, I have several years exposure in all areas. The use of different math manipulatives is essential in the learning process. Once you know how a child learns, anything is possible. Patience and understanding are 2 qualities that I have acquired working wi ... read more

I'm a SCSU graduate with a GPA of 3.6. I recently went back to college to pursue a career in Anesthesia. I have a Bachelor Degree in Biology, an Associates Degree in Chemistry. Experience as a 7th and 8th Grades Science Teacher and also as a Tutor. The children needed serious help! - the Magnet School they attended told their parents they would have to work really hard in order to continue attending the school. After a couple of months under my tutoring and motivating skills they became #1 in their classrooms! I have a great gift of not only teaching a specific subject but also developing in the student a desire to succeed! My early recollection as a teacher is as a fifteen-year-old teaching ESL classes to adults.
I'm a very motivated person with a great sense of humor! I have attended seminars and read many books about motivation, people skills and children learning/developmen ... read more

I have earned a BS in Biology with a Chemistry minor and an MS in Science Education. I also possess my Initial Educator Certificate in 7-12 Biology. I have experience with middle school, high school and college level students in classroom settings, but prefer the one-on-one setting where I can concentrate on helping students.
In order to be a successful teacher, one must create interactive yet stimulating lessons. I always try to relate my lessons to my students’ daily lives and show them that science is not only about learning theories and laws, but it can also be fun and exciting. I believe that as a teacher/tutor, my role is to guide my students towards information that they can use in everyday life. I also believe that establishing a rapport between myself and my students is key to my gaining their trust and helping them to succeed in school as well as in life.

I believe that every child deserves and has the right to a good education. Therefore, each child's specific needs and learning style must be taken into consideration when delivering a lesson or new material. As an educator, it is my pleasure and responsibility to foster a safe, non-threatening learning environment for each child where patience and respect are coupled with learning strategies and tools for effective learning to take place. I also believe in making learning relevant and real-world for each child by making connections between the subject matter and experiences the student can relate to.

A Little Bit About Me...

I would say that all people are capable of learning and improving their abilities, knowledge, and skill. My experience has been that if a child, youth, or adult is given the space in which to learn, and introduced to material in a patient manner, in the style that works for them (be that through explanation or visual learning, etc) they will take the initiative to learn and grow at the pace and direction which works for them. People are naturally inclined to learn and grow, and my experience is that when given the opportunity and supportive role of a teacher, they will become interested in learning and continue to do so.
