Marine Biology is one of my top subjects! A concentrated survey of how biological/living organisms work within a dynamic marine environment. Subjects Include: Taxonomy, Behavior, Nutrition, Reproduction, and Environment/Ecology.

My teaching style is a combination of teaching by example and using the Socratic method inorder to challenge the student to think beyond the surface. I think that allowing the student to think through the process and analyze the problem it allows them to better internalize what they are learning.
I have professional background as a field biologist and a GIS analyst. I have applied my knowledge of both scientific disciplines to support my survey findings and convey them in report form. In addition to my professional background, I have 20 years experience in teaching karate and 10 years teaching SCUBA diving.

Marine Biology is one of my top subjects! We live in one of the greatest places on earth and amazing technology in hand to study Marine Biology. Allow me to take you through my class on Marine Biology using videos and interactive technology through local aquariums and research projects. I also have stories of my personal research experiences that will illustrate essential concepts in a way you will never forget!

I have been teaching/tutoring students in life science for over 20 years, but it all started with my BA from UC Berkeley in Integrative Biology. At Berkeley I tutored/taught part-time as a Lab Teacher at Berkeley Community College, a study group leader at UC Berkeley student learning center, and a Kaplan MCAT tutor. I then earned my MA in Zoology (with a thesis in molecular evolution from University of South Florida) and mentored/taught College Freshmen Biology and worked in immunology at the Cancer Research Center. I moved back to the Bay Area and worked at Biotech companies including Genentech, and Amgen. In 2013 I earned my Biology and Chemistry California Teacher Credential from CSUEB, and now have been a full-time life-science teacher for 5 years for grades 7-12 in public, private, and specialized education schools. I have taught middle-school life-science, Biology, Marine Biol ... read more

Obtaining my Bachelors and Masters from a prestigious university has provided me with not only a pertinent educational background but also a great appreciation for the importance of education. The courses I taught at Rutgers University and my current teaching position at IADT have provided me with invaluable experience in being able to work with a diverse group of students with different learning styles. My area of expertise lies in Math and Economics, however, I am also proficient in Science, English and effectively knowledgeable in all other subjects. I am very driven to not only educate, but also instill the value of education and a proper attitude and study habits towards learning that will last a lifetime.
Seeing the light bulb go off in my students’ head is a constant reminder of my passion for teaching. I believe that all students are capable of learning and succeeding h ... read more

I believe in "Assertive Discipline". This style uses lots of verbal praise, rewards and incentives. It keeps learning on a positive, moving forward track. This style of teaching is never negative. It encourages learning through engaging, age-appropriate, research-based, fun activities. It starts by assessing each child to determine the student's strengths and weaknesses. Then the appropriate materials are gathered to address each area of need. Tests, charts, diagrams, folders, manipulatives, and many other electronic learning tools are used to track progress and build confidence in each student. All children can learn if they are properly motivated, diagnosed, and given the appropriate learning materials.
I have over twenty years of experience teaching reading. I completed all of the Houghton/Mifflin Language Arts training sessions that taught California teachers how to be expert L ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I believe anyone can teach a subject, having enough knowledge of a subject allows one to pass it on. However, I feel what many teachers do not do is teach students how to learn. It is in my belief that teaching students to learn enables them to think independently allowing them to become more creative rather than repetitive. So not only do I teach students the subject, I teach them how to learn and apply it to every other subject.
As a accomplished student, I realized I always had help along the help with achieving academic success. From teachers and counselors to my peers and older students. I began to help other with academics as early as the third grade, however I began to commit to tutoring in High School and continue it through-out college, in hopes to eventually becoming a teacher in the future.

After earning my BS in Biological Sciences from UC Santa Barbara, I decided to live abroad in South America as a Peace Corps Volunteer to help others and put what I learned to practical use. I was stationed in Bolivia where I taught natural resource management, ecology, basic science, and nutrition to children as well as adults. I am fluent in both English and Spanish. In high school, I also tutored elementary school children and enjoyed it greatly.
I believe that positive reinforcement, patience, and a genuine desire to see one’s students excel is the best way to success. I feel that the only way to get through to a child is to be his or her friend first and foremost, and to treat him or her as an equal. I love being both a tutor and a friend. My approach to teaching is more hands-on, rather than lecture based, because I feel that if the child is actively participating the lesson ... read more

I am a parent to a four year old and a twenty year old stepson, so my teaching and parenting is one filled with patience, toughness but fairness, and lots of humor. I believe that children should talk respectfully, grammatically correct [Student: “Can I go to the bathroom?” Myself: “Well, I don’t know. Do you know how to?’ Student: “I mean, may I go to the bathroom?” Myself: “Yes, of course you may go the bathroom”], and should treat each other with respect too. It’s not easy, and it’s more of a battle some days than others. I have students who feel that they can do whatever they want to, on their own time. I teach that with the privileges comes the work, there is no easy way around it [I work with high 6th graders and 7th graders].
I have worked for over five years with elementary and middle school-aged students; I have also worked with People with Disabilities. I love working wit ... read more

Easy going, supportive, hard working, direct, open, and encouraging. My style is to find real world experiences to provide examples for learning. This approach stimulates students to actually enjoy chemistry instead of thinking of it as something difficult or uninteresting. I've also found that the carrot approach works much better than the stick. Everyone can make the grade or higher by being encouraged and helped.
Teaching 5-10 years of college level organic chemistry, physical chemistry, inorganic chemistry, biology, biochemistry, and intro chemistry. Also, I've served as a full time lab assistant. I've had extensive experience in both designing exams, lecturing, tutoring, and providing special assistance to students.

I enjoy working with students of all ages. I like to get to know the student I am tutoring and what their individual learning style is like. I adapt to how they learn best and go from there. I am patient, and willing to do what it takes to encourage learning and success.
I have always been eager to learn and help others learn as well. I especially love the sciences, but have always loved and excelled in school. I have previous tutoring experience, and love when new opportunities arise. I recently obtained a BS in Biology from Simpson University. This provided me with a significant background in both the sciences and in math. I have tutored high school student math courses, history courses, and science courses.
