Life Science Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Strathmere, NJ

As an educator, my understanding and approach to learning comes from placing myself in the perspective of the student. Therefore, student's opinion on coursework needs to be heard in order to create effective learning goals. I believe this will increase a student's motivation and connection to the material. Connections, which are endless and create concrete understanding for students. I am very passionate, easy going and understanding of students. Although, I set the highest expectations because I believe the student can achieve them. Each student can succeed and they will. The University of Delaware has integrated me into the education field with a variety of experiences. I will earn my degree in May of 2011, becoming certified in Elementary Teacher Education and Middle School Social Studies. Over the past few years, I have strengthened in my ability to work with students of diverse nee

LOUD & LIVELY! I like to make the lessons I teach interesting and involvement is key. If I can educate and entertain (a tool I use), I command participation, respect and learning. Due to my style, students, once in a while, think it's all fun and games. I am also an enforcer of rules. If you want to continue to have learn and have fun, you better act right. As an educator, I have tutored students in mathematics and English from grades 4 through college level. I have taught songwriting in summer camps, 4th grade language arts and ESL to high school kids fresh from Korea. Also, as a Youth Advocate, part of my job description was helping my kids with school work and homework.

I am a determined, enthusiastic, and highly motivated teacher. I want students to grow academically, socially, and emotionally in an atmosphere that is stimulating and adaptive to their diverse needs. I have focused on instilling in my students a love of learning. I believe it takes more than a single individual to make a difference in the lives of a student. Therefore, I have learned the value of being a team player and the importance of communicating with colleagues, parents, and administrators. I have my BS in Psychology and BA in Art. In May 2003, I received my Masters of Education (M.Ed.) from the University of Maryland in College Park. My work towards this degree provided me with an extensive understanding of scientifically based research, lesson plan development, and teacher training skills. I have worked as an educational researcher on three large-scale government grants studyi

I have found that any student can learn. The key to a student's success is that education must be approached in the correct manner for that individual student. Not all students learn in the same fashion, and that must be considered in planning and implementing lessons. I believe that education needs to be approached in a fun way that coincides with the student's individual interests and learning styles. If the student loves sports, I would find innovative ways to include that in my tutoring so that he/she would stay focused and retain information. Furthermore, I firmly believe that education needs to be approached in a constructivist manner. A foundation needs to be established, upon which new skills can be built. I have always been a very hardworking student. In high school, I graduated 15th in a class of 301 and took college level courses in Calculus, Chemistry, and English my j

Throughout college, I have tutored in English, Writing, Science, Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Government. I love teaching! Nothing makes me happier than teaching a student a difficult problem. I am extremely patient, easy going, considerate and honest. My goal is to provide the best education at the adequate pace for the student. I love reinforcing concepts so that my students are able to conceptually understand what they are learning.

Through my experience with Big Brothers Big Sisters and MAXIM Healthcare Services, I have tutored many children with different educational backgrounds that required different concentrated attention. I gauge how I tutor a child by their personal needs. I take the time needed to understand the child’s personality and listen to which is their preferred style of learning. I choose to gain their trust and build their confidence immediately. Used techniques are: verbal (lecture), visual (flashcards, diagrams, etc.), repetition (both verbal and visual), games, question and answer sessions, and more. It is most important to use the method that is the most effective to the child’s educational and emotional needs. During my journey to complete my B.S. of Biology at The Richard Stockton College of New Jersey I was inspired to help others educate themselves. I informally tutored my peers in biology

I am a firm believer of a very structured classroom. I want my students to have a place where they can feel safe. I let the students know what I expect of them and how the classroom will be run. My students understand that there will be consequences for inappropriate behavior. I allow the students to be themselves and I strongly encourage creativity. I understand that I have to adjust my lessons in order to reach various types of learning styles. I want my classroom to be a warm, caring, and structured environment for the optimal learning. It is very rewarding to work with the students and see them blossom. I feel that no student is a "lost cause" and that everyone has the right to learn. I am DE, NJ and PA certified K-6 as well as 7-9 Middle Level Science and English. I have experience teaching Integrated Language Arts to eighth grade students using a study skills and novel base

My teaching style is focused on student achievement. Many parents complain that their child does poorly on tests. This is often a result of inadequate teaching practices which fail to recognize individual learning differences in students. My goal in teaching is to individualize the learning process for each student, so that the student understands and retains knowledge and is able to explain what they learned. This process increases their test scores and confidence. Students often require that educational materials be modified or accommodated to meet their particular needs. My experience in special education has shown that all students can achieve if knowledge is properly presented and goals well defined. I have over twenty years teaching in the public and private schools in New Jersey. I have taught English, Math, Social Studies, and Business. I am a NJ state certified teacher in

I became a teacher because I enjoy working with children. I enjoy helping them in their learning process. When they do well in achieving their goal it's rewarding to me. I know I have accomplished something. All my students achieved a grade level or more whether I tutored on my own or with Club Z Tutoring Service. I believe every child is entitled to an education regardless of any circumstance. They should strive to achieve all they can become. I try to be a teacher with patience, a good listener, and to encourage all my students with a positive attitude. My students needs come first and I try to always have extra time for them if they require it.

It enjoy working with children. Learning has always been important to me, and it made a real difference in my life, giving me sophistication and great knowledge of different subjects. I am always available to tutor students if they are struggling, so they could reach their potential and gain academic success. I'm trustworthy, reliable, and have great patience. I'm the kind of person who wants to help students gain knowledge and make a difference in their lives, since my educational experience was inspiring. All children learn in different ways, but I believe they could be taught well in any subject if they are given the proper surroundings. After graduating from Arcadia University, I started my education career as a preschool assistant. After that, I landed a position as a one-to-one aide for a special needs student for my school district. It gave my experience in working in the special

As a college graduate, I value the importance of education. I've earned a bachelor degree- a Bs in Biology where I've gained knowledge of science and math. In addition, I also have a Teacher's Certification for Elementary Education in a Hebrew school setting from Midrashah Junior College. Over the past 12 years, I've tutored students in basic Hebrew, Bar and Bat Mitzvah practice, elementary, and middle school math and science. I have a passion for helping children! Each child learns in a different way, and as teachers it is our job to meet the student where they are. I am patient, and helpful, while still pushing the student to do their best. My goal is to help students develop a love for learning.

My teaching style is really quite simple . I take my cue from the student and at what pace they may be best helped. Some students need the extra "push" and some move along quite well. My goal is to make learning fun and memorable ! Anyone can learn , but patience and perserverance must be present . If I can make a difference in just one session then I know I can help that child achieve their goal. I know I do make a difference in my students lives and that is something to feel good about ... I have been a substitute teacher for grades K through 6th. for the past 20 years and have loved the diversification it has offered . Working with different levels of children has helped me gain insight into helping all ages and subjects . It is a tremendous asset in being able to tutor those students in need.

I don't just teach, I inspire and motivate. I try to help all of my students finish my classes with a high level of enthusiasm. I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science in May 2005, from Richard Stockton College of New Jersey. I have excellent communications skills, and a very strong teaching /and/ Computer background. I have a remarkable ability to inspire and work with others. Many of my students are from different countries, and struggle with the English language. I presently teach Poker dealers. I do not let this hinder them, or me. I simply teach them enough English to increase their confidence to complete my class. In return, most will send their relatives to my class, because they found that I communicate well with others, no matter what their background.

I enjoy sharing knowledge with others and believe that teaching is beyond memorizing facts. As an educator I attempt to teach students skills to become lifelong learners through fostering an appreciation of knowledge. My teaching style is adaptable to a particular student's needs, but often incorporates the strategy of relating content material to the individual's existing knowledge. As an informal educator I have experience utilizing hands on learning activities to engage my students. I believe these strategies are what allow individuals to actually gain knowledge. I have recently completed a Master of Arts in Teaching, where I concentrated on secondary biology. I have a Bachelor of Arts in biological anthropology with a minor in biology. My educational background enabled me to have a strong background in biology, but also in mathematics and all sciences including chemistry. I have

I am a Returned Peace Corps Volunteer. I served in The Gambia West Africa as a health and community development volunteer. As a volunteer I worked in a local hospital on a daily basis, performing a variety of roles. I am a graduate of Roger Williams University. I have a BS in biology. RWU's science courses are intensive in both lecture and laboratory proficiency. As a result I’m able to tutor both lecture and laboratory portions of a course. I am a very patient teacher, and I'm willing to take the time to explain any concepts a student is having trouble with. I have tutored several courses while I was attending college including several biology courses, organic chemistry, and physics. My experience in the Peace Corps has taught me to approach subjects in an “out of the box” way, which I can translate into a unique and effective teaching style.
