Marine Biology Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Tyrone, GA

I have worked in the aquarium industry for 19years. I have indepth knowledge, practical skills related to the marine science field. I grew up in a VA suburb of Washington, DC and spent my summers and holidays from college as a page, intern, and tour guide in the US Capitol. I have a passion for learning that I would love to share with students in need. My most recent job as Associate Curator at the Georgia Aquarium required that I have indepth knowledge of a wide variety of marine and freshwater habitats, ecology, fish ID, water chemistry, and management of a team of biologist. I think science is fun and exciting. I like to teach with a hands on approach.

As a University of West Georgia Biology Workshop Leader I was responsible for checking pre-workshop practice problems, working through workshop problems with the students, administering tests, grading the said tests, keeping organized attendance records, and reporting to my superviors. Not mandated by my outlined responsibilities as a workshop leader but in addition to, I formulated lecture notes, lectured on the said notes, created study aids/diagrams, and offered additional assistance in the tutor room outside of the designated workshop hours. Reflective of my disposition, immediately in order to establish a conducive learning environment in which the student feels comfortable, I try to employ a mellow, patient, open-minded and light-hearted atmosphere. I very much enjoy teaching, and try to make it so my student(s) enjoys learning. I was once asked by a student, "Are you a Biology t

My teaching style is based on the student’s learning style. Each child is different and may require different teaching methods to facilitate learning. Some children are more visual and may require more interactive exercises to learn. I do not believe in spoon-feeding information to children but taking the time to ensure that they fully grasped the concept of a problem and are able to think through a solution on their own. I will work to develop their critical thinking skills and will challenge them, so that they are not just passive learners but active participants in the cognitive process. I am patient and will work at the student’s pace encouraging him/her to give his/her best effort to the given task. As an undergraduate student I was always in the top ten percentile of my math, chemistry and biology classes, and as a result, I tutored fellow college students in those respective subj

My objective as a teacher is for my students to learn the fundamental contents of the course I teach. My drive is to foster critical thinking in my students,encourage the acquisition of life long skills, prepare the students to effectively seek information and to develop problem-solving skills.I encourage both individual and collaborative projects to get feedback from students. I prefer student-centered learning principles for large lectures and active-learning principles for small groups or one on one coaching. I have thirteen years of teaching experience in Tertiary institution teaching Biology, zoology, Anatomy , Physiology, Pharmacology, Medicine, Poultry science among other subjects.I have a DVM degree and have extensive experience in related subjects to the profession coupled with more than adequate practical and life experience. I have a passion for teaching and always measure t

The greatest gift that one can give is that of an education and the greatest gifts that the provider must have is that of patience and consideration. All students absorb and learn information differently and therefore each student must be taken as an individual. While some learn through iteration, others learn through hands-on experience, consequently it is important to pinpoint each student’s learning abilities and work to supply them with the best experiences possible so that they are able to learn how important and wonderful an education is. Anyone can pass an exam if they want to but it is more important for them to realize that the knowledge they are gaining far exceeds any grade they can achieve. As a graduate student in Biomechanics with a B.S. in Biomedical Engineering I have gained an extensive knowledge of mathematics and the physical sciences, which I have been able to com

I love children of all ages, including Middle School and Highschool. I do not alweats go by the book. I do what I feel is best for that particular child's learning style. I teach outside the box and encourage learning rather than straight memorization. I help children love learning. I taught in public school and private. While doing so and during summers, I tutored on my own. I got married in 1986, had three children and stayed out of the classroom for a while. I homeschooled my own children and began an ACCREDITED highschool for home schoolers. I taught and tutored all subjects. I have also worked with several learning disabled children. I can teach/tutor pretty much any subject ages K-college. I have also worked in the Writing Lab at Clayton State College. I feeel very qualified for this job.

I believe that science has a undeserved reputation for difficulty as a subject that is directly related to the inability of many teachers to "break it down". Science can seem to be like a foreign language to the uninitiated, but at its essence science is simply a way of thinking about the world and asking questions. Several themes appear again and again in concepts that on the surface may seem unrelated and it is recognizing these themes that is the key to success in building knowledge and confidence. My teaching philosophy is to point out these common threads binding various topics in science and relate it to the real world as quickly as possible, always with the goal of breaking it down to its simplest explanation. I hold a bachelor of science in Biology (cum laude) from Morehouse College in Atlanta, GA and attended graduate school at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine

With so many years teaching middle school students in classrooms, I specialize in crafting just the right learning environment for students, emotionally safe but a little push outside their intellectual comfort zone. This is achieved through patience, clarity of thought, and modeling a sense of wonder about the world. I have worked with students who receive special education services as well as gifted students, and am adept at differentiating content and delivery to best promote comprehension and retention. Finally, everyone learns best when they feel like they are having fun and making their own discoveries--it's my job to ensure this sense of adventure is part of students' educational experience, offering ever more motivation to learn. With 7 years of international and U.S-based teaching, tutoring, and training experience, I am at ease teaching multiple subjects to individuals and enti

I have earned a Doctoral degree in Medicine and a Masters degree in Public Health concentrating in Epidemiology and Bioststatistics. As a research scientist, some of the subjects that I had to do well in were math, biology, chemistry and physics. I supervise various levels of our staff and have been told by my peers that I am a good teacher. I enjoy teaching and tutoring others. I am from a family of four, and as the eldest child I tutored all my siblings in science subject areas were they had difficulties. I like to help kids that have an interest in science. I try to instill the enjoyment I have for the subject.

I have teaching experience in Anatomy and Physiology (honors), Biology (honors and on-level), and Life Science (honors and on-level). I have served as an AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination) and America Reads tutor in math and science for the past two years. I have had an outstanding success rate with previously poor performing students at local schools and at after school programs in the community. Science, and in particular, Biology, has always been a passion of mine. It is my professional goal to increase the science literacy level for my community by sharing my experiences and knowledge with students at the high school level. In addition to completing the course work required to obtain a Biology Education degree, I have taught in a pilot school for a standard based curriculum in which units were presented in nine-week segments, allowing for quarterly benchmark assessment o

I am currently teaching anatomy and physiology courses to students training to become licensed Registered Nurses. The courses focus on basic science principles and the relationship of these concepts to human function and structure, clinically. I have experience teaching at a university as a Teacher's Assistant in chemistry. The classes would meet before a test and discuss the analytical techniques of the course. I am currently teaching an Anatomy and Physiology course for nurses looking to pass the RN liscensing exam. My approach to teaching is centered around the particular goals of the student or students. Clearly, a course centered around a liscensing test will focus on the material that will be on that test. Otherwise, teaching has to be catered to the student's ability to learn the material and focus on the weakness in understanding the concepts involved in the material.

My teaching style is very goal oriented. I do love to teach and am very patient on teach subject matter. I don't believe in pushing through subject matter when a student does not have the basic knowledge needed for success in the future. I am passionate about my ability to teach others and take the fact very seriously that what I am teaching today will brighten the lives of many in the future. I am a Georgia State University Graduate of 2008. I got my masters of science from there and am now looking to disperse my knowledge to others. I excel in biology and other science related fields. I have most recently taught labs for Georgia State University in the field of microbiology.

Inquiry- I want the kids to learn through inquiry. Figuring out a problem through experimentation and critical thought of outcomes. I like to start with the basics and go from there. For older students, college and adults, I teach them study skills and notetaking and then go over the subject matter that they learned in class, I have tutored my own children and have taught them to think cr itically and I tutored for 2 years as a Grad Assitant. I have worked in the Biological Science field for many years and I really enjoy teaching kids about science and it's impact on society

I love teaching all age groups. My teaching/tutoring experience has exposed me to kids from Pre-K-Grade 12. I am very patient, creative and outgoing. From my experience I know that education is valuable but it also needs determination and focus from each individual. Therefore i know that half of the job of a teacher is to teach a child, the other half is let the child enjoy learning, with this teaching style there are no limits. I graduated from one of the top business schools in Georgia. I am very driven and enjoy learning and teaching. Currently I have a BA degree in Finance and Accounting and now working towards a BS and MS program for Columbia University in NYC. I also have a extended 5 years experience in both fields working with Fortune 500 Companies. During the last 7 years I have tutored several students in Math, Finance and Accounting. I also have excellent grammatical skills du
