Percussion Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Rockmart, GA

I hold a bachelor of science in Biology (cum laude) from Morehouse College in Atlanta, GA and attended graduate school at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine where I studied Molecular and Cell Biology and completed all coursework required of the Ph.D. Since graduate school, I have over 10 years of biology research experience in both academic and biotech settings. My research, teaching and training experience covers the entirety of essential topics in biology and chemistry. In addition, my solid oral and written communication skills, and excellent computer fluency are just a few of my relevant assets. I believe that science has a undeserved reputation for difficulty as a subject that is directly related to the inability of many teachers to "break it down". Science can seem to be like a foreign language to the uninitiated, but at its essence science is simply a way of think

I was introduced to teaching as a guitar teacher and loved the field of education ever since. My first school experience was teaching 7th and 8th grade social studies in Queens, N.Y.in 1979. Finally, I found my niche in high school teaching various subjects such as Physical Science, Biology, Social Studies and tutoring after school programs for the passing of the high school graduation tests. In 1993 I moved to Georgia and became fully certified in the fields of Physical Science, Health and P.E.and ESOL. I successfully tutored high school students to pass the graduation tests with a >95% rate. My years of experience have taught me that no two students are alike, especially in the 'tutoring' arena. I find the students strengths and create a positive learning environment that students actually enjoy! My students tell me they can't believe how fast the time goes; and look forward to the nex

I am a recent graduate of kennesaw State University, with a Bachelor's Degree in Biology. I believe that I am competent in various areas of biology and chemistry, and will be able to convey that competence. I have taught and tutored at my church and in other volunteer programs since high school. I also currently give drum lessons at a Stephen's Music Company. I always find myself trying to lead others to figure out material on their own as a I set guidelines for them as they do so. I believe this is the best way for them to learn the material. I do not like to tell my students the answers, inhibiting them from thinking things through. I try to find different ways of teaching material in order to keep them motivated, as well.

I am graduating from Rice University with a B.S. in Biochemistry and Cell Biology and a B.A. in Asian Studies this year. I have achieved a cumulative GPA of 3.67 while attaining leadership positions in three separate school organizations. One of the biggest achievements during my college career was planning a six week-long medical mission to Kenya where I taught HIV/AIDS education to rural communities and set up mobile clinics in remote locations. I have gained extensive experience as a tutor for elementary, middle, and high school children in math and science, among other subjects. During high school, I volunteered every week to tutor elementary school-aged refugee children from Rwanda, Uganda, Serbia, and a range of other countries. I believe that teaching is most effective when you give students a chance to show you what they already know. Half of teaching is simply encouraging chi

As a member of a musical family, I grew up w/ a profound passion for creating & understanding music. My first instrument of choice was playing the drums, I started playing when I was 12 years old. Taking lessons from the famed Wilco drummer, Glen Kotche & getting involved with the school Jazz program were highlights from my high school days. I went on to attend the University of Tennessee graduating in 2001 with a bachelor of science degree, majoring in Horticulture Science with a minor in Business. Though I did not scholastically pursue a music degree, I continued playing & taking music lessons in college. During this time, I found my ‘voice’ on the guitar & it has been my primary instrument ever since. I find every student is different & so it is up to me to be able to acclimate to a style that works best for that particular student. Learning music is not easy for someone who has

I have always enjoyed teaching at any level. One of my strengths is to recognize the personality of the student and contour my style to that particular personality. In a class room setting, I would focus on a student that I feel is shy and afraid to speak. I would gently get them involved with simple questions to build their confidence so that others in the same realm would understand and overcome the fear associated with participation and become involved with the existing interaction. As a Facilitator for Western/Delta Air Lines, I was sent to a Training Mapping class in Los Angeles, Ca. to master writing training materials based on the Fogg Index of the trainees. I have also been a Substitute Teacher in the Fayette County School system from 2003-2008 in various grade levels (kindergarden to High School. The subject levels that I have taught range from art, mathematics, English, Histor
