Chris L. - Virginia Beach, VA 23462 (7.5 mi) - Life Science Tutor - $35.00/hr.
BS in biology graduated Summa Cum Laude UT San Antonio. Graduated top honors medical school. 2 YEARS surgical/medical resident training. Have treated thousands of patients and had to utilize knowledge of life science on a day to day basis for years. Having fun is a requirement. Learning in an environment where stress is taken out of the equation is paramount to retention of knowledge and key to success. I utilize anecdotal methods to convey concepts so that a student can relate the knowledge to how it fits into their own life or past experience.I try to get around rote learning when possible. However, when pure memorization is unavoidable, I have methods to incorporate that are tried and true and still hinge on the foundation of using anecdot. See one, do one, teach one is also another way I like to use. The student sees/learns, then does/uses what they've learned, and finally teaches t

Nikkia G. - Suffolk, VA 23435 (22.3 mi) - Life Science Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I double-majored in biology in chemistry in undergrad, so the field of science and medicine is my first love and my strength. I have also received a Masters of Public Health Degree in Epidemiology, and have since completed my 2nd year of medical school. I have always had a strong affinity for math and english as well. I have a published thesis paper that was constructed and presented as required for my masters curriculum. I have been tutoring since I was in high school, and have tutored elementary to college level courses. I have a relaxed, stress-free teaching style, while staying on task and topic. I make sure the pupils really understand the material by breaking things down to the basics, and reviewing the foundations. After reviewing and application of the concepts, I have my students switch roles and "teach" me the material. I believe if you can explain the material to someone else,

Ayesha G - Virginia Beach, VA 23452 (3.1 mi) - Life Science Tutor - $48.00/hr.
As a recent MBA graduate, I would like to apply some of the things learned during my studies into helping others in their area of weakness. I understand that some students struggle in certain areas and I feel that I could be a great mentor. I tutored students in the past with the Big Brother Big Sister program. My area of expertise of editing and proofing essays and research papers. I'm also very proficient in Math. I am not a teacher however, I do have 3 children ages 10, 11 and 12.

Mikaela H - Virginia Beach, VA 23452 (3.2 mi) - Life Science Tutor - $39.50/hr.
Teaching is a joy to me and privilege I am grateful to have. I am a creative, patient, and caring person and I love to incorporate games and fun into learning while maintaining the seriousness of the subject. I seek to know each student’s personality in order that we may build a trusting environment where they feel safe to try their best. Each student has a different learning style and I tailor everything to fit the unique needs of each student. As a guide to their learning I believe in the constructivist approach where students do not just learn how to do something but understand why it works. With time and encouragement everyone can reach their educational goals and gain confidence. It is my honor to be a part of the success. While studying in college to become an elementary teacher I sought out many opportunities to practice my new skills and found them in all levels of academia from

Lisa H - Virginia Beach, VA 23454 (3.5 mi) - Life Science Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I have the unusual ability to teach in a way that each individual can relate to and on a level that they can each understand. I feel that all people can learn given the right circumstances and a teacher that understands the way that person is able to learn. Learning is a process and I approach teaching in a logical step by step fashion by which my students can relate. As a Sociology major and an accounting student at Longwood University, I was able to gain an understanding in a variety of areas from classes in business, sociology, anthropology, psychology, english, math and the sciences. I have excelled in writing financial as well as literary reports. I tutored many of my classmates while I was in college and was afforded the opportunity to substitute teach sociology when my professors were out due to illness or personal reasons. In my career I have trained many of my employees and

Jeffrey N - Virginia Beach, VA 23454 (4.1 mi) - Life Science Tutor - $41.00/hr.
With one on one tutoring, especially of a foreign language the key should be conversation, while face to face. Practicing conversation, inventing conversation and writing conversation. Writing and word memorization activities may be assigned for the time between tutoring sessions, and discussed in the following session. Of course every person has their own way of learning and the beauty of having a personal tutor instead of a class is that the instructor can focus on his one pupil's learning style in order to develop the most effective and proper teaching methods. As a Virginia Tech Honors Graduate I earned a bachelor degree in Civil/Environmental Engineering. Through this path I have gained an understanding of both math and physical sciences. While studying I also volunteered at a local middle school to tutor children in math. Also, having lived in Paraguay for three years I have

Katherine B - Virginia Beach, VA 23462 (5 mi) - Life Science Tutor - $42.00/hr.
I absoultely love teaching children, and I have alot of patience. Every person has their own way of learning, and I strive my hardest to figure out what way that is in each of my students. I am a very visual and hands on learner, but I have the ability to adapt my teaching method. I think it is extremely important to be very possitive and celebrate even the smallest acheivements. Every student can reach their potential if the appropriate approach to teaching is in place. I am a very patient person. I tutored special needs students in the summer in a variety of subjects. I also taught piano lessons to several students of my own while attending school. While I was in college I was the chemistry lab assistant and lab tutor. I set-up and conducted the labs the teacher had planned, and I helped the students with their homework. As a summa cum luade graduate with a B.A in nursing, I s

Faith S - Virginia Beach, VA 23462 (5 mi) - Life Science Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I graduated from Union College in June of 2008 with a BS in Biology. Due to hard work and dedication, I received my BS in three years instead of four. I have been substitute teaching for almost a year for many different grade levels. As of recently, I have been tutoring students in mathematics. I am a very patient person that believes in sticking with something until the student fully understands it. It may take a variety of techniques, rephrasing or working through examples, but I believe if you are dedicated there is nothing you cannot learn as a student.

Beth W - Virginia Beach, VA 23455 (7.5 mi) - Life Science Tutor - $53.50/hr.
I earned my BA in Elementary Education from the University of Iowa in 2004.I have a total of seven years working in the classroom. I spent my first year out of college substituting and covering a maternity leave. The next two years were spent in a 4th grade classroom in Illinois. I then moved to Florida and began teaching 3rd grade. When I moved to Virginia last fall, I spent the year substituting in grades 1-6. I have taught all basic subjects. I have also taught many inclusion classes and have worked with students of all abilities and many with specific learning disabilities. I believe in teaching the individual. Every student learns differently, therefore I have always presented the material in as many ways as possible. If you asked any of my former students what my favorite phrase was, they would say "you do what works best for you!" I have a passion for educating, I am flexible,and

Malikah M - Chesapeake, VA 23320 (10.1 mi) - Life Science Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I enjoy assisting others with their studies by improving their acadamic standards.I believe that the outcome of a student's achievments through hard work is most rewarding. I look forward to a difference in each student's life by providing a great learning experience. I look forward to targeting each student's specific weaknesses that may be a hindrance preventing them from performing at their maximum capacity. I will do my best to assist each student based on their own individual learning styles. I am a recent graduate from Old Dominion University with a degree in biology. In the past I have had experiences with assisting fellow students in biology and chemistry courses. In addition, I have also assisted as an undergraduate teaching assistant in a non biology majors laboratory. My previous experiences have been mostly in the fields of biology and chemistry, but I may also tutor students

Larry R - Chesapeake, VA 23320 (10.7 mi) - Life Science Tutor - $52.50/hr.
My teaching style consists of incorporating all learning styles of most people in order to achieve the highest level of comprehension in course subjects. I believe that most students gain the best understanding when they are required to use their auditory skills, while visualizing the information, and writing the information for the practice of kinesthetic learning. It is imperative that the learning environment is entertaining yet informative so that the students view the learning process as fun. Any additional learning techniques or styles may be applied to accommodate all children in need. I have worked for Norfolk City Public Schools and Virginia Beach City Public Schools as a substitute teacher for approximately six years. During that period I performed a multitude of jobs including long term substitute positions, teaching high school physics, and performed tasks far beyond the para
