Organic Chemistry Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Westminster, CO

During my time at Colorado College, I worked as a chemistry tutor helping my younger peers traverse the challenging General Chemistry and Organic Chemistry course loads. But because of CC's rigorous alternative schedule--where you take one class at a time, for one month each class--it's necessary to learn to pick up new concepts very quickly, I often found myself being asked for help in classes I myself was taking. I never minded this, because being forced to explain something is the best way to ensure your own understanding of the concept. That is why I try to avoid directly answering questions my students ask me, instead dropping hints and asking questions of my own that guide the student to their own answer, in their own words. My favorite part about teaching is the moment of sudden understanding that you can see in a student's eyes when they've got it. The challenge, of course, is ge

I find out what exactly the student is lacking in the subject by asking a few basic questions on the topic and make a judgement of the student's understanding on the topic and then proceed forward. I normally explain the concepts in diagrams so that it makes it easier for the student to visualize the problem and give the student plenty of practice problems for him/her to work on to make their understanding better I have taught over 20 students during my undergraduate and graduate study. Most of the students that I have taught are engineering students who need help with the basic understanding of concepts and visualizing problems. The subjects that I normally teach are Chemical Engineering subjects, Engineering Physics, Chemistry and Basic Math classes.

I possess a deep understanding of the principles of Organic Chemistry and have 6 months experience of tutoring Organic Chemistry to undergraduates at the University of Colorado Boulder. As a straight-A student, learning has been my passion and for the last year and a half I have been culminating my tutoring skills at the University of Colorado Boulder. At CU Boulder, I have been working with the Herbst Academic Center to tutor student-athletes. During this time, I have gained over 6 months of experience tutoring Organic Chemistry I & II as well as Physics I & II. I also posses over 6 months of experience working with PhD candidates Caelyn Hirschman and Zane Colvin in Dr. Grabowski's Applied Biomechanics Lab at the CU Boulder. Hybrid/Blended

I am a practicing Organic Chemist. I have terminal knowledge in the subject and have been consultant for corporations (publishing and pharmaceutical) and worked as full-time university faculty (CU, Mines, Princeton). Chemistry is work for me, however teaching chemistry is what I enjoy most. I think you will find it fun too, once the rules are actually explained to you. (Surprise! No one has or will explain it to you, not even your professor--see for yourself). I primarily tutor Organic and General so you can rest assured 100% accuracy and depth of understanding from a chemist, not just any science major. Don't risk your time and money on someone with barely a semester of experience more than you. It takes years of graduate organic education not experience tutoring or assistant teaching. To communicate the subject precisely at the level you need to ace your class and even your profes

I have always enjoyed teaching others sharing my love of learning. I find it most effective to use a variety of methods to successfully teach information. Material is best learned when it can be easily understood by the student and has practical applications for everyday life. I am not the type of tutor to just hand out answers to problems. I guide my students down a path of critical thinking, all the while leading them to the answer by asking a series of questions designed to stimulate their thought process. I will find a different way to explain the material if the student does not comprehend it. I will always work at the pace of the student. I believe in encouraging each student to stimulate confidence and foster their potential. As a tutor of student athletes at Indiana University, I tutored students from all walks of life. I began by tutoring Biology and Spanish but the need for tu

I have found through my 6 years of teaching students, that flexibility is a key component. Explaining a difficult concept to a student should be customized to each individual students' needs. I encourage students to always ask questions even if they think they are stupid. Everyone has to ask those questions at some point in their career! One of the most important goals of my teaching is to help the student grasp the concept of the subject, to help them apply that knowledge throughout their course. I often find that students blankly learn concepts without truly understanding them and as a result struggle to apply them later. I love to teach, and genuinely want to use my knowledge to help others. I am a logical, thoughtful person, who is happy to explain the same concept to students as many times as necessary. I know this subject can be difficult for some, so please contact me and I ca

Some years ago a friend told me that volunteer help was really needed for the adult GED program in our local area. I decided to give up time for two hours a week. When I begin the program it was really sad to see someone struggling over simple arithmetic problems, I was glad to help then. I also get a feeling of accomplishment when students show understanding and that understanding is reflected by an increase in homework scores and test scores. I have earned two bachelor degrees, BA in Organic Chemistry and BA in Electronics. I have tutored students in mathematics, chemistry, electronics, basic computer programming and physics. I believe that if I can understand something, then everyone else can. I help students by convincing them that they can understand to build up confidence. Students and I work at what needs to be memorized such as formulas and basic concepts, learning to apply and

I enjoy working with children, and in one-on-one settings, I find it the most effective. I do demand alot from my students, especially considering the distractions and challenges children face these days. Emphasis on studying and school work remains my focus. I achieve that by a slow, deliberate teaching of methods that I hope the children find useful in the learning process. I focus on core fundamentals and critical thinking skills, applied to whatever subject I am helping with. Ultimately, the fundamental necessity is dedication, effort, and discipline on behalf of the student and myself to make this endeavor a success. My undergraduate degree in biochemistry provides a solid foudation in the sciences such as Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, and Biology. The reading and writing skills I learned during my course studies further supplemented my overall skill sets, and make me a well r

I have a B.S. in Biology with an emphasis in microbiology and zoology with a minor in chemistry. For the past 10 years I have worked in the science industry in many facets. Many facets only because I was trying to decide what I wanted to go graduate school for only to decide not to go once I was accepted. I have gained experience in the biotech industry working with RNA, in the newborn screening laboratory for the state health department working with recessive diseases. I am now a clinical reagent application specialist for Waters Corporation. Depending on the age of child but especially thinking of biology and chemistry classes I think it is valuable to teach the person how to create different activities with the subject matter to learn the material. It is important to know that people learn different ways and have different needs when it comes to learning.

A good teacher is able to recognize strengths and weaknesses in his students and create an approach that utilizes the strengths to improve the weaknesses. For instance, if somebody is having trouble grasping qualitative concepts but has a strong mathematical background, employing a quantitative approach to demonstrate the concept would be useful. Passionate yet easy-going, I understand the need for balance between challenging my students and exercising patience. My students will gain an appreciation of the learning process and acquire the knowledge necessary to be successful in academia and the real world. As a Neuroscience and Behavioral Biology major at Emory University, a heavy science course load was complemented with a liberal arts education. This well-rounded education equipped me with the tools to tutor students in everything from organic chemistry to proofreading papers.

During my undergraduate career, I was privileged to enroll into the Physiology department in the College of Medicine at the University of Arizona. The University of Arizona is one of 10 schools throughout the country that offer the physiology major to undergraduates. My BS degree is unique, and allowed me to continue to purse a part of medicine I have a strong passion for. I was able to complete a course in Muscle Biology, where we discussed everything from current muscle research to advancements in muscle technology. Along with my bachelor's degree, I received my personal training certification just last year. With this certification I have been able to put into practice what I have learned. Teaching has become a big passion of mine, and I have taught people of all ages. Everyone learns in a different way--some visually, others verbally. I like to incorporate both into my teach

I have been a substitute teacher in all academic subjects. I have managed a classroom of 5-12th graders as well as presented the lesson prepared by the teacher for that day. This experience has increased my knowledge of the behavior of middle and high school students. In addition to my substitute teaching duties, I have accumulated over 600 hours in the classroom through internships and student teaching. I participated in the “Summer in the City” internship given by the New York City Board of Education in the summer of 2003. This gave me invaluable experience with a diverse learning population in an urban learning environment. Furthermore, I have performed over sixty hours of one-on-one tutoring in all subjects. I graduated from the State University of New York College at Geneseo in December, 2003 with a Bachelor of Science in Biology and a provisional teaching certificate in B
