My comments on tutoring Genetics : Currently Enrolled in Genetics at Utah Valley University.

I am a College Student working towards getting a Secondary Education Teaching degree in Biology and Chemistry. I want to eventually go on and teach at the University level. I am planning on going to the University of Utah and want to get a doctorates in Biology or Biochemistry. I have spent two years in the great land of Russia. I love the country and all the people. For the most part I am a smart cookie. I love life and try to learn as much as I can while I can.
Fun but serious.

Genetics is one of my top subjects!

I love to teach classes in chemistry . When I clarify a difficult concept, it is always rewarding to see a twinkle of understanding in my student's eyes. I firmly believe that what I am today is because of my teachers, who took time to patiently explain the basic scientific concepts to me. You can learn almost anything if you understand the basics. My doors are always open to curious minds!
I have a Masters degree in Chemistry from Portland State University. I have cumulative 10+ years of work experience in diverse academic and research positions in universities and pharmaceutical companies in India and United States. I find breaking down complex scientific ideas into bite-sized chunks to be extremely rewarding, especially when I see the smiles on the faces of my students when they make attain a new level of understanding. From my experience as a high-scoring chemistry student at U ... read more

I enjoy teaching and I have taught all grades and various subjects during my time as a substitute teacher. I think it is important for students to ask questions. This is important for them to be able to learn effectively. I think science is important for students to be able to learn how to think analytically and to develop a curiosity of the world around them.
I have a degree in Microbiology and a minor in Chemistry. I enjoy teaching and I have worked as a substitute teacher for two years. I am also fluent in portuguese and I have taught english to non-native people. I have several years of laboratory experience which I believe enables me to teach children real world examples of how science works. I believe this also can prepare them to think analytically.

More About This Tutor...

While a Biological Sciences major at Brigham Young University Idaho I took several different math courses that were above and beyond those required for my degree. I excelled at each of the classes that I took, and was actually recruited by my calculus teacher to become a statistics and calculus tutor at the university math lab. I worked for 4 consecutive semester there teaching everything up to, and including, Calculus 2 and statistics 2.
My teaching style is actually very fluid and relates specifically to the people that I am currently teaching. Every person learns differently, as such, a wide range of teaching styles is required to teach a wide range of people. As a tutor, I was able to develop my teaching skills in a wide range of areas (including: analogies, step/progression, fundamental-based teaching and increasingly narrowed focus) that have helped me teach many different pe ... read more

I have earned my BS in Biology from Westminster College. I am currently applying to veterinary schools to become an equine veterinarian. This path has led me to master the basic sciences, including biology, chemistry and physics, as well as to gain a solid background in mathematics through calculus and statistics. During the last four years I have tutored high school students in math and the sciences. I am an avid reader and excelled in my SAT and GRE Verbal and Reading Comprehension sections. I have a solid understanding of the test taking techniques that will help students excel at standardized tests. My extensive experience teaching horseback riding has also taught me how to work with children and young adults as an effective teacher.

My teaching style begins with understanding the level of each student's knowledge and learning approach. During my college years I participated in many tutorial sessions realizing that it could provide instructional help as well as social interaction with other motivated students. I believe that tutoring helps a student become more involved in his/her studies, creating a greater interest and a more enduring impact. I can teach very detailed, down to the fundamentals, or using simple examples. The best part about teaching is watching as the students "get it."
At the University of California, Irvine I completed my degree in Economics with a minor in Spanish. Additionally I took the necessary courses for medical school. I have completed Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physics, and several Biology courses. I also took the Medical College Admissions Test. I have tutored students i ... read more

I completed my bachelors of science in biology from Mesa State College, after which I went on to receive my masters degree in evolutionary biology from The University of Texas at Arlington. I then pursued a Ph.D from Brigham Young University. Although I completed all my coursework and my comprehensive exams and was approximately 80% done with my dissertation, I opted to leave the program to pursue my passion of teaching. I have been teaching general biology and anatomy and physiology, as well as zoology labs, at both UVSC and SLCC ever since. For the last two years I have also been working toward licensure to teach secondary school here in Utah.
My approach to teaching is an interactive one. Although I teach at the college level which tends to be more of a lecture environment, I try to bring in current events and real life examples of science in action and get a dialogue initi ... read more

I like to use an interactive teaching style in which there is lots of discussion between teacher and student. This provides immediate feedback on the student's understanding, enabling me to adapt the teaching session to provide the most benefit. I love biology and teach with enthusiasm. I believe all students can learn and perform well if they are given the opportunity to become interested, to ask questions without fear, and get clear explanations in multiple formats until they understand. I also feel poor grades are often due to poor testing skills rather than lack of knowledge. This is easily fixed with practice and opportunity to develop confidence in your abilities, at which point testing becomes fun rather than frightening.
I have degrees in a wide variety of scientific fields including a BS in zoology, a BA in chemistry, an MS in ethnobotany, and a PhD in physiology and devel ... read more

My rigorous education has given me substantial insight into the "total package" needed to learn and succeed at a high level. The ability to learn material is critical, and I excel at teaching difficult concepts and skills to a range of different learning "types". However, the ability to organize, prioritize, and focus is equally critical to academic success, and my experience with a wide range of subjects from art and literature to science, social sciences, and business as well as a range of different personalities allows me to teach virtually any subject with a sympathetic understanding of how each individual's personality learns best. Some people learn well step-by-step, others learn better through self-experimentation. My familiarity with a range of learning styles allows me to find the best way to teach each individual.

As a Biology student at Brigham Young University I was hired to be a tutor in the Life Sciences Learning Center. I tutored college students with a focus on introductory biology, molecular biology, and genetics. I developed a rapport with students and fostered a positive and welcoming learning environment. Last April I graduated from BYU with a BS in Biology, and regrettably had to leave my role as a tutor. I have six years of experience in teaching dance, including tap, jazz, ballet, and ballroom. Additionally, I have always been a strong student overall, and my previous coursework qualifies me to tutor chemistry, math, writing, Spanish, psychology, sociology, and several other subjects.
As a tutor I strive to focus on the needs of each individual student. I find great fulfillment in getting to know each student on a personal basis, which allows me to develop trust and mutual res ... read more

While pursuing my own studies in college, I realized that I not only love learning but that I love to increase learning in others as well. Because of this, I spent many hours throughout college volunteering to tutor calculus and chemistry students. During my last two years of college, I worked as a chemistry teaching assistant, a position that allowed me to teach chemistry to groups of 25 college students. As evidence of my effectiveness and clarity in teaching, I won four undergraduate teaching awards during this period. Currently, I work as a private tutor for high school students and tutor them in all levels of math, science, psychology, English, and ACT test preparation.
I love learning and feel that all types of learning and knowledge increase our ability to more fully appreciate the beauties of life. When tutoring, I do what I can to instill this love of learning in thos ... read more

I get to know the student first and see how best he/she learns. and go from there. I have worked with so many different personalities that I have been able to help each the best I can with understanding and patience. Tutoring a subject that I also had to learn will make it easier to teach them the tools that I needed to do the same. I hope that by showing how I did and that it was doable that they too can do it.
I was an American Read tutor at two elementary schools. I worked with kindergarteners and third graders to enhance their reading skills. In a one on one setting with approved books and kept them on track will goals that we set to meet each each. While I earned a bachelor's of science in Zoology where I took human anatomy. I have also tutored my younger four siblings through school.

My teaching style is flexible depending upon the needs of my student(s). Some students have disabilities that make drilling or repetition styles of teaching and tutoring difficult and tiresome, while other thrive on it. Others need hands on learning opportunities and problems to work through on their own. Regardless of the student’s need, I am a tenacious teacher. If one method does not seem to be working, I will keep trying until I find the right method for the student I am teaching or tutoring.
Throughout my undergraduate studies at BYU, I taught and tutored in Spanish for up 24 hours each week. I supervised 5 districts of students, 10 teachers and up to 65 students at one time, while still teaching in the classroom. Additionally, I graded papers for college-level business courses for several years. As part of this experience, I provided feedback on writing, grammar, and conte ... read more
