Science Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Poolville, TX

When teaching I like to base the curriculum off of interests of the child so they can understand on a personal level, and also be excited to learn and relate what they learn to the things that they enjoy. I do not personally own any curriculum or books. I am 17 years old and I love working with and teaching kids. I have experience with teaching a bible group for second graders at my church, and I know how to get your child excited about the many things they can accomplish by learning. I am a senior in high school and have a GPA of 3.7. I have taken AP classes and 4 years of Spanish. My best academic subjects are math, science, and reading. I am skilled in music and am taking a college level music theory class, so if you're looking to learn or have your child learn either piano, guitar, or voice I can help in that as well.

I worked for Project Transformation through SMU. I tutored high risk and underprivileged children in Oakcliff with after school homework help. Their ages ranged from 5-12 years old. I along with my fellow tutors also provided extra intellectually stimulating activities when they finished their homework such as future planning and education regarding different cultures. I provide as much one on one attention as possible. I provide examples, write out explanations using the board, and try to help the child progress without giving them the answer.

I am that highly qualified professional who is prepared to take on the challenging and yet rewarding position as a teacher of English or Social Studies. I am a mature student, who has attained a Master’s of Art in teaching degree from TWU (Fall 2009), and have certification in Secondary English Language Arts & Reading and Secondary Social Studies. I have been substitute teaching multiple subjects nearly every day this past year in the Northwest Independent School District, since completing my student teaching English & Reading at Northwest High School. I am convinced that for students to succeed in their education and in life they must have a firm foundation in reading and writing. Without mastering these basics it is nearly impossible for them to move on to a higher learning level. It is my desire to not just improve test scores, but to inculcate a passion for literature, reading and h

My teaching style is best described as eclectic. While I am organized and focused, I vary my instructional methods to incorporate diverse activities and materials to engage and interest students. By understanding human behavior and acknowledging the many different learning styles of students, I easily establish and maintain an excellent rapport with students and parents alike. As a result, there is a strong level of trust that develops which also allows me to provide direction in working towards realizing shared goals and objectives. When faced with challenges, I succeed in utilizing a variety of strategies to motivate and encourage positive interactions. Over the past 20+ years, I have worked with students from Pre-K through the college level. The commonality that I have found is that reading is the one thing that students need to be able to do and do well in order to be successful.

I believe the true way to teach is to make a connection for each student: relate the material to something the student already knows. A more “hands-on” approach will allow the student to learn faster with greater retention. I feel that every student has the ability to learn, and that it is the teacher’s job to provide each student with the connection. In today’s age, classrooms have become over-crowded thus making it more difficult for the teacher to make that connection. It is the job of the tutor to fill in the gaps. With this theory, I try to use my experience in the work field to relate the subject matter to the student’s surroundings – hence math and science are my forte. I work well with children by making learning fun, but also have the knowledge of complex problems to provide the same environment for high school and college students.

I have a passion for language and rhetoric. Words, truth, knowledge, and exploration have marked my academic career. I studied with two colleges during my Associate years in order to obtain lessons in Japanese. I took my passion for language into history with pursuits in Latin and Greek while attending the College of Saint Thomas More. I have offered consistent and helpful tutoring to youth and classmates over the past four years. I have specific experience with Theology, Philosophy, Literature, Rhetoric, Latin, Greek, Japanese, and Anatomy. I enjoy the wonders of discovery and assisting others with master concepts and practical logic that helps them in every aspect of their lives. Tutoring is not so simply as to aid a child in finding the answer or getting a college student to pass the examine. It is truly the disciplined approach to knowledge and truth that allows one to branch into ne

I love Science and Mathematics, and sharing this knowledge and these ideas with others. I emphasize problem solving skills that start with defining the problem, then identifying the relevant data given and always keeping in mind the final goal. Reaching the goal may involve a number of steps, so organizing your work is a key skill in the process. Once a goal is identified, the definitions, ideas, and theories that will help you arrive at the solution must always be kept in mind and tested for relevance during the process. With proper organization the task becomes much simpler to accomplish. I graduated from Stephen F Austin State University in 2006 with a B.S. majoring in both Mathematics and Chemistry. I also have 20 college hours in Physics as well as 16 college hours in Biology. The educational goals of the departments is that it is not enough to do well on exams and homework, a succ

I have always had a passion for learning, and helping others learn. In middle school, High School and College, other students came to me for help with assignments. Knowing what it is like to be a student, I try to see from the students point of view. Each student teaches me their own way to learn. I enjoy learning and hope that I can share that joy with others. My degree in Engineering has given me plenty of experience in math and science. I have also had graduate courses in Physics and Engineering. As a graduate student at UNT, I instructed several physics and astronomy labs and learned first hand what teaching can be like. I have since felt that teaching math and science is a career I want to pursue.

My philosophy of my teaching style can be described as hands on, creative, child centered, yet with an emphasis on the traditional core subjects: reading, and math. My goal as an educator is to teach my students to develop a love for learning and a curiosity about the world around them. A child's character can besat be developed using a thematic, progressive approach. I received my undergraduate degree and proceeded to begin my career as in inner city kindergarten teacher. I took several years off to start my family, and returned for fourteen more years as an inner city ESL/kindergarten teacher. I worked with children from many diverse backgrounds and I am knowledgeable in the multicultural field. My experience is best summarized as focusing on a language rich, child centered environment that facilitated learning using phonics, hands-on mathematics, learning centers, and an integrati

I work with students individually to assess the best way to help them learn. I use techniques including demonstration, problem solving, projects, explanation, games and more. I believe firmly in helping students not only gain mastery with subject content but also to become better people, through building confidence and self-esteem.

My teaching style is to teach the whole child. I acknowledge that not all of my students will be the same academically; but I know I can help each child on an individual basis and with a different learning tool. Being very creative is a must to make sure to keep them interested in their learning. As a teacher I believe that students should learn to make those decisions that will be required of him or her as a mature adult. The student must learn not only the particular subject, but also find out how it relates to other subjects, and to the outside world. Over the past 4 years being an educational instructor, organization, leadership and initiative has been the key to success. I have earned two degrees, BS in Biology and MA in Finance, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in the areas of math and science. Also, I have attended medical school for two years.
