I have 13 years experience both in the pharmaceutical and nuclear industry. I have earned a B.S in Chemistry and also a Masters degree (M.S.) in QA/RA for the heavily regulated industries. I have experience tutoring chemistry students shortly after graduating Temple University for a Non-Profit program called Philadelphia futures. My diverse background of knowledge will aid in any subject area of chemistry, including Radiochemistry, Organic Chemistry and Physical chemistry. I love teaching and working with children from various backgrounds. I am patient, considerate and flexible. I will go with the pace of the student. I am a firm believer in a constructive and organized based approach to learning and will work with your child to ensure success. When the students succeed, I succeed.

I have become very adept at determining what level each student is at and tailoring my teaching style to suit the students that I am working with. In a class of over 20, I was able to reach each student with modified lessons and assignments. In the case of individual tutoring, I move at a rate that challenges the student while giving them ample opportunities to feel successful. I enjoy encouraging students to work to their best ability and am excellent at finding ways to motivate students who are stuck, bored, or find the topic too challenging. I have tutored at the middle, high school, and college levels since my first year of college in 2004. Since then, I have worked as a paraeducator for the Special Education Dept. of an elementary school where I worked with first and second graders. For my student teaching experience, I was an intern for a full year at a city middle school, work

As a computer graduate, I worked for many organizations but I am interested in teaching Math, Physics and chemistry to students. I taught math, chemistry to students in susquehanna township high school as a volunteer and continuing it. I love children and teaching to all children. I believe children learn in many ways and have different talents. I like to teach students according to their talents and want to strive hard to for their acedamic exellence.

I am a graduate of York College of Pennsylvania. I obtained a BS in Chemistry and a minor in Math. I have always had a good understand of the sciences and mathematics. I have learned good written skills due to many research papers and laboratory reports. Throughout college I was a laboratory assistant for a physical chemistry lab and helped prepare the chemicals for the organic chemistry labs. I believe subjects need to be looked at in an interesting way and a way that the student can relate to. Everyone learns differently and it just takes finding that one way that each student learns best. I feel that everyone can do well in anything they put their mind to.

I have recently completed my masters program in computer science. Previously, I have worked on data migration projects in India for few US based clients, mainly involving Microsoft technology (VB.net, ASP.net and SQL Server). During my graduate work I have developed strong knowledge base around – Object Oriented Concepts, Operating Systems, Database and Scripting Language. As a graduate assistant, I did assist my professor in their research work related to “Virtual Reality”, which was subsequently published in IEEE. It (assistantship) also gave me an opportunity to tutor undergraduate students majoring in computer science (Set theory, OOPS Concepts, .Net framework etc.) and mathematics (Algebra, Calculus and Trigonometry). Developing a good practical understanding of the subject matter has been my main motivation for tutoring students. My approach to curriculum based or assignment based

I have tutored children ranging in ages from 7 years old to 22 years old, so I have learned that not all learn in the same manner. I believe I am versatile in my teaching methods so as to fit the needs of any student, and if need be, I'll use additional methods that may be useful. I believe all students have the capacity to learn, but it is the job of the teacher to ensure that he/she is learning the best way possible. I will be graduating from Towson University in May of 2010 with a degree in Secondary Chemistry Education. I am currently completing my student teaching, in which I am in charge of two Chemistry II classes and one upper level organic chemistry class. In addition to this experience, I have also tutored students in College Algebra, General Chemistry I, General Chemistry II, and Organic Chemistry. I have also spent seven weeks as an instructor of a Chemistry Enrichment cl

I learn visually and like to teach that way. I believe there is a great deal of concepts and memorization in Chemistry. I am not able to memorize all of the subject and would not ask a student to. Instead, explanation and demonstration of the concept, followed by memorization of the rule grants a greater understanding. The rule can then be applied to other areas and is worth much more than a large volume of memorized information. This is possibly more true in the fields of Math and Physics, learning rules and concepts goes a long way. I prefer to patiently explain, draw, or demonstrate the concept at hand then work on problems that further illustrate that concept. I Studied chemistry at the University of Wyoming. During my years there I helped tutor many friends and friends of friends in the subjects of Chemistry, Math and Physics. Also, I worked as a lifeguard and used my skills

After college I worked for three years.During that time I applied and received a scholarship to the Medical College of Pennsylvania, from which I graduated in 1994. I completed an Internal Medicine Residency at MCP in 1997. After residency I worked as an attending physician in Pittsburgh from 1997 to 2000, and in Berlin, Maryland, from 2001 to 2004. In January, 2004, my wife became severely ill, and I decided to take time off to raise my two young daughters. I taught at the Dawn Training Center in Wilmington, DE, from May to October, 2006. I also have extensive experience teaching junior housestaff and Nurse Practitioner trainees. I have a fairly informal teaching style, and I tend to use a lot of humor. I try to connect the information I am trying to convey to what the student already knows, rather than simply provide facts to be learned by rote and regurgitated on an exam.

Each student is different and hence my teaching approach is more on student specific. Teaching and learning are two major components of education; I would say it is a mutual effort. An effective teaching can generate interest in students and can make learning fun. It is very important to get feedback from the students about his/her understanding of the subject. I find pleasure to make a difference in all of my student’s life. My fascination for math and science started right before high school level, which drove me to have the Ph.D. degree in chemistry. As an Organic Chemist, I know the subject very well and had gained extensive teaching and research experiences at undergrad and graduate levels.

I am a candidate for a Ph.D. degree from the University of Delaware. I am majoring in Materials Science and Engineering and thus my education endows upon me a strong academic background for Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry all upto the college level. I have been a candidate with a high GPA all throughout my schooling and college. Teaching is my passion as I have demonstrated being a teaching assistant for undergraduate students in engineering and have a general sense of where students might need help. I also have strong communication skills. I have been a very patient teacher. Coming from a family of teachers and professors, I understand that teaching is an art and not just a process of talking to people. A mind when open can grasp and absorb everything it is exposed to and I strongly believe that a big part of a teacher's job is to open their students mind toward what needs to be lear

My teachers have had a significant impact on my life over the years, and because of this, I feel it has made me more aware of the importance of a student/teacher relationship. I believe every student needs personal attention, and each deserves the care of a teacher to understand their individual learning style. I absolutely love helping others understand the exciting world of science because it is something that I really appreciate and have a passion for. I believe in adapting to a child’s learning style in order to constructively approach a problem, and working together to obtain a full understanding of a topic. Personally, I am an incredibly patient person who is exceedingly caring and aware of different learning abilities and styles. As a chemistry major at a highly accredited college, I was very driven to achieve excellence in education. My motivation stemmed from sincere intere
