Genetics Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Port Salerno, FL

In the future, I want to work with kids, helping them to become successful and self expressive. I believe this is a good experience for both the children and I in helping us further on with our goals. I love working with kids and only want to help! Math comes extremely easy to me and I can teach anyone with patience and persistence. I am also good with writing and reading. I can really relate to children who struggle with comprehension because as a young child, I struggled very much with it. I believe that I can help even more by viewing their struggles from their perspectives. I have little experience in tutoring. However, I have always helped my younger sister as well as some children I have babysat in the past. Even thought I have little experience, that is exactly why I am on this site. I crave the experience of working with children and helping them succeed! They have so much power

Have taught all levels of biology, human anatomy and physiology, numerous biology electives such as environmental science, introductory physical science, introductory earth science, and geology courses including physical geology. Have experience as a writing tutor both at the college and high school level. My teaching style is conversational-I talk to the student, rather than at or over him/her. I try to keep the student engaged by consistently posing thinking questions that help reinforce skills in scientific deduction.

My educational philosophy is based on the Socratic approach that uses questions instead of answers to foster deeper learning in students. In order to pose relevant and meaningful questions, I make use of engaged lecture and active learning. Since students have a variety of learning styles, I incorporate visual, auditory, and tactile techniques into lessons. I enjoy exploring effective techniques to increase students’ understanding and excitement of biology, including using my students to interactively represent protein folding. I hope to motivate my students through my own enthusiasm. Additionally, I find that addressing the big picture of each lesson is of utmost importance to facilitate a deep understanding of the material. As an undergraduate, I served as service chair of a biology honor fraternity. In this role, I shifted our service focus from general service projects to science-spe

Of the essence in tutoring is to make the subject pertinent and fun, as well as applicable to everyday life. For small children, we have phonetics to help the child master sounds and words. I do use Ipod teaching games to involve the child actively. Obviously for older children, who may have trouble expressing themselves, increasing vocabulary usage is of the utmost importance, otherwise compositions are redundant and lacking depth/style. Here is a feed for one of my blogs http://hubpages.com/author/vrajavala/latest/?rss As I indicated, I have a B.A.in Philosophy and later studies in Art. Later, in 1975, I decided to return to obtain a DMD at BU. After that I joined the Army and served as an Army dentist. Due to events in my life following my brief sojourn in the Army, I traveled abroad to India and Asia. Upon returning, I continued to study, but this time in more spiritual matters.

After graduating 12th in my high school class, I decided that I wanted to continue on with my formal education. With one year of college under my belt, I continued to finish my AA degree and will be receiving my BS degree in Education in Secondary Biology in December of 2010. During college, I worked in the office of the Vice President of the college where I gained office and technology skills. I spent two semesters tutoring in the tutoring lab at Indian River State College in which I tutored students ranging from grades 7-12 in reading, math and science. I have always loved education. I believe that education should consist of not only textbooks and facts, but should be about understanding life and how we fit into society. I believe the most important parts of teaching are being a guide for students, teaching them how to flourish in the world around them, inspiring inquiry and creativit

As a Graduate Student/Researcher at TSRI-Scripps Florida, I Trained high school students in laboratory safety, experimental design, scientific principles, college course selection, and data presentation. I believe that everyone can greatly benefit from an understanding of chemistry and biology, and I feel that all students are capable of learning the basic principles of both fields by using a combination of interactive learning and the careful use of analogies to convey phenomena that are not visible to the human eye.

As a student pursuing a doctorate degree in pharmacy, I have had exposure to a wide variety of subjects, with emphasis in the math and science areas. I have completed mathematics to the calculus level, and have taken several years of various biology, chemistry, and other more specific science courses. I feel that through my six years in college, I am very well trained to tutor students, and often helped my peers t

I enjoy sharing what I know and have learned with others. I have a 7 year old son and believe patience is a valuable characteristic of mine. I'm also very easing going and get along well with most people. When tutoring, I first attempt to help someone understand a subject especially chemistry as structured in the text book but whenever possible, if the situation requires, I will try to simplify the subject in any way possible until the student makes it over the hump and then the text version usually becomes more clear. I've worked as an environmental scientist for the past 15 years. I have a B.S. Biology/Limnology and completed General Chemistry I and II, Organic Chemistry I and II, Biochemistry. I have many years of experience related to preparing scientific reports. I enjoy tutoring.

I have learned that teaching is more of an art form than a job. During my two years teaching, I have learned from the students as much as they have learned from me. I believe that each child has a unique and intricate way of learning. For success in academics, it is crucial for each student to understand what their specific style is. I am prepared to work with children and their different styles to help them excel not only in the classroom, but beyond the classroom as well. I very much work by the motto that states: "I am going to be more of a coach in the classroom, and a teacher on the field." Almost immediately after graduating from the University of Miami with a Bachelors in Science degree, I was given the opportunity to teach at Carrollton School of the Sacred Heart in Coconut Grove, FL. During the two years that I spent at Carrollton, I taught science disciplines including: Ch

At University of Florida, I earned a BS in Biology with a minor in Secondary Education. Following graduation, I began teaching at Gainesville High School. I taught within the magnet program, Academy of Health Professions, as well as the rest of the High School population. The subjects I taught were Honors Anatomy and Physiology and Integrated Science. I am a person that likes to set goals for myself. I never like to leave any loose ends. This reflects my teaching style because I ncourage my students to set goals for themselves no matter how big or small. I do not put time limits on myself and allow flexibility in my lesson plans to ensure my students are ready to progress to the next lesson. I always make myself available for extra help.
