More About This Tutor...

I believe in a more visual aspect in learning and teaching. "Hands on" as much as possible. For example, it's easier to learn looking at a mesquite tree than reading about it or looking at a picture of the tree. I try to make learning fun and thrill to the discovery of knowledge. A lot of biology however, is more of a "rote memorization" type of learning. This tends to bore some so I try to make it more real and exciting.
Most of my experience is working as a Wildlife Biologist for the US Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management and the Bureau of Reclamation (1973-2006). I worked as a teaching Assistant for Dr. Bender at ASU (1972). I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree in Biological Science from Northwest Nazarene College (University)and a Master of Science in Zoology from Arizona State University.

Each individual is different. Therefore, you have to know the person first in order to apply a teaching style. Age, gender, and subject matter are some elements that influence how a person learns. Some people learn visually, some people learn by practicing, some people don't want to learn. ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I truly and honestly enjoy working with children of all ages to help them achieve their highest potential. I am highly efficient at helping students with homework, understanding lessons, and prepping for examinations. When working with young children (grades k-6), I try and make learning as fun and relaxing as possible. Young children also need a lot of attention to ensure they remain focused on the task at hand. When working with young adults (grades 7-12), I try to do my very best to explain subjects as thorough as possible. I also like to take subjects one step further by using analogies to bring concepts into a form that is easier to understand and more relevant to their lifestyle.
My tutoring began in when I was employed with Nazareth Colleges' Partners for Learning program. This program worked with several schools in the Rochester, NY area to provide in school and after schoo ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I feel that my style of teaching is student centered. I am a facilitator to the learning process. Any student who chooses to learn can and will, however some students need more motivation than others. Thus, I take the time to hear about and understand what my students know and more importantly do not know and want or need to know. I also want to know how my students learn best before I start teaching them. In a general classroom setting, I try to ensure I do something for all learners. However, in a one-on-one setting, I am able to tailor my explanations to that student's learning style. Therefore not only helping the learning process, but also encouraging the best that they can do.
I became interested in tutoring and teaching as an undergraduate. I began as a basic chemistry tutor, but quickly worked my way up to a lead tutor position. I then took on the responsibility of ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Having graduated from the University of Arizona with a BS in Microbiology and minors in chemistry and Spanish has enabled me to expand my knowledge in areas such as science in particular biology and math. Being bilingual permits me to help those students who currently have difficulties mastering the English language. During my undergraduate career at the UofA, I was a tutor for genetics. I received upper-division credit for it. My tutoring experience lasted the whole Spring semester. In addition to offering office (tutoring) hours, I had the responsibility to oversee one laboratory section as part of the class's curriculum. The lab session was once a week for 3 hours. I also tutored Pueblo High School students in algebra as a volunteer.
When it comes to helping other students I like to bring to the table a constructive and collaborative approach to solve the problem. In implementin ... read more
