Highly-skilled career nursing professional

I have been in the health care profession for almost 20 years. I began my nursing career as a nursing assistant, worked as a LPN for 6 years before I became a RN in 2004. I received my Bachelors of Science in Nursing in 2013 and am currently studying for a Masters of Nursing as an Educator. I have practiced mainly in the acute care arena with a focus on medical-surgical an progressive care nursing. I also have extensive experience in infusion therapy, abdominal transplant, diabetes education, and in home health and long-term care. I recently became Board Certified in medical-surgical nursing through the American Nurses Credentialing Center.
My teaching style provides a strong emphasis on realistic experiences which bring theory and practice together harmoniously.

Biology is one of my top subjects!

I am a recent graduate of Virginia Commonwealth University with a PhD in Microbiology and Immunology. I have dedicated my life to the study of microorganisms and have been a contributor to the field since 2003. I graduated from Virginia Tech in 2005, where I obtained a wealth of experience and knowledge of biology, with an emphasis on biochemistry, genetics, and molecular biology. I carried on my studies at VCU in the Fall of 2005, where I mastered the knowledge and skills needed to succeed in the field of microbial research and development.
I have tutoring experience in the field of virology and viral/cell genetics (at the graduate level). My teaching philosophy was to have the student come in very prepared with questions/comments about the areas that were troubling them. I then went through area of study by area of study, and explained in the simplest terms the background, r ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Bachelors in Mechanical Engineering - VMI 2007 Currently a Biomedical Engineering Graduate Student at VCU I am very proficient in most maths, sciences, and especially tissue engineering concepts. I can help with virtually any science or math problem, if it's a higher-level issue I would just ask that you give me a day or so to review your particular problem.

My comments on tutoring Biology : I took Bio 101 & 102 in college, which is general biology. I received high A's in the class both semester.

What I try to do first is get the student to work out the problem, and as they are doing that I will work the problem as well. We will go over our answers together so I have a chance to explain the problem to the student. I believe that repitition and practice makes perfect as long as you have someone to explain it along the way. I will thoroughly explain the problem to the student if they don't understand it. By the end I would hope that the student could then explain how to do the problem to me.
I am now a sophomore at Germanna Community College. I have taken Algebra, Biology, English, Contemporary Mathematics, and various psychology courses. I am continuing to take more math and science classes. As a high school student I took Algebra I and II, Biology, Duel Enrollment English, and various other courses.

A Little Bit About Me...

I earned my BS in Chemistry with a GPA 3.57. I then took the GRE and ACS entrance exams for graduate school, I passed all four division with 20-60 percentile of the national avg. During my undergraduate education I was a tutor and earned level one training certification. In graduate school I instructed lab courses and tutored in a learning center several days a week. I am well experienced and qualified for tutoring any undergraduate and lower level chemistry courses; I have earned several A's and B's at the graduate level.
I do not know what my teaching style is. I have instructed large groups and had one on one learning sessions as well. I have dominated the communication time and I have been a listener. I have out right provided examples and I have merely provided encouragement for a student to continue their thought process. I believe everyone learns differently and therefore it ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have an undergraduate degree (BS) in Biology and a graduate degree (PhD) in Physiology. I have experience as a Professor of Anatomy in Graduate Physical Therapy curriculum. I have taught Anatomy and Physiology and to students from elementary school to graduate medical studies. I have most of my teaching years teaching Allied Health Students at the community college level.
I believe that much of the difficulty in learning Science is that people try to learn a series of facts rather than a story. It is difficult to do well when a student is dependent on his/her ability to recall from extensive facts where no understanding of the interrelationship is appreciated. I believe scientific conversation regarding seemingly complex subjects can serve to demystify the material. Humor often helps in this. I have worked extensively with students who know the material yet can’t test well fo ... read more

I have been a volunteer for various literacy programs for the past several years, focusing primarily on phonics rather than sight reading. I have worked in two group homes for dually diagnosed adults, meaning both physically and mentally challenged. I went to school online at Ashford University, for 2 years in an accelerated Bachelor's Degree program with a focus on education. With an inborn gift of language art skills and being a tutor for about the past 20 years, I have learned how to relate easily to any age group or functioning level.
I am a creative teacher, meaning that I assess the individual and do not have an agenda that I adhere to. Normally, I am able to advance a child a grade level in reading with three months of tutoring and reinforcing homework, during the summer. However, I will go the extra mile to help a student be able to totally understand what I am trying t ... read more
