More About This Tutor...

Progressing through graduate school and working as a undergraduate student demonstrator allowed me to define learning as a personal process of growth. Being able to ask questions and actually attempt to answer those questions was extremely motivating. Involving and motivating students presents its challenges, but my goal of individualizing learning creates an open and comfortable environment where students can feel free to ask questions, make mistakes, and challenge themselves. It is by breaking down the barriers to learning that students can face their own misconceptions.
My teaching philosophy is to get students to think about science as a process, and to individualize their learning experiences. I prompt them to “why” and “how” questions at every stage.

A Little Bit About Me...

A University of Notre Dame graduate, education has always been a top priority. I have earned two bachelor degrees, on in pre-medicine and the other in psychology. In the pursuit of these degrees, I have developed an understanding of math and science. Over the past three years, I have had the opportunity to mentor a South Bend, IN middle school student. During this time, we worked together on her reading and comprehension skills, as well as improved her math abilities.
I love working with elementary and middle school aged children. I believe that each student is unique and requires their own approach to learning. I also believe that understanding how to set goals and achieve success is essential to learning. Growing up in a community of dedicated educators, I find joy in helping others learn in the same caring and understanding environment.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have earned a bachelor degree in Chemistry and am currently in a PhD program in Pharmaceutical Science. As an undergraduate I had the opportunity to tutor my peers in both science and writing courses. As a general chemistry tutor, I was expected to communicate lecture materials in a new or different way, as well as to assist in problem-solving efforts for students who were struggling. I was also the teaching assistant for a freshman writing course. As a graduate student I have been put in charge of a teaching laboratory. In this current role, I am expected to develop and deliver pre-laboratory presentations, field questions and grade writing and practical assignments.
When tutoring a child or young adult, my goal is to conduct the session in a manner that is student-active. This strategy includes posing leading questions so that the student has the chance to discover the an ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that learning is best achieved in a comfortable, nothreatening enviroment. People learn best when they understand the importance of the material being taught, something I strive to convey to my students. While I can easily teach a didactic lecturing style, I feel that an interactive approach often better meets the needs of the students. Ultimately, education is a reflection of the students success and the teacher is merely a means to that end.
My experience in teaching is broad and varied. I have taught medical students, other physicians, technologists, as well as teaching at military facilities. In additiom, I have two school age children myself and I believe that I am their primary teacher. This varied teaching experience allows me to tailor my teaching methods to the students and has allowed me to gain a great fund of knowledge.

My teaching style would focus on making sure that all children understand the basics of what they are doing before they can proceed to a more difficult level of study. A strong foundation is the best way to achieve excellence whether studying basic Algebra or Advanced Inorganic Chemistry. I believe in teaching through all different means from lectures, to hands on projects, to outings that are focused on the field being studied. I feel that the best way for a student to learn is to immerse the student with all of the different learning techniques there are. One good role model in a student’s life can really motivate a student and help them succeed in their dreams. This is why I strive to make a difference in student’s lives.
I graduated with an AB in Chemistry, from a top college in the country, which has helped me gain a better understanding of mathematics and the physical ... read more

I have always been interested in tutoring and helping students learn. In high school I tutored elementary students and high school students who were struggling with a variety of subjects. I was an advanced academic student throughout high school. In college I spent time tutoring other college students in my classes to help them understand the new material. I currently am tutoring students (Range: middle school through college) in math, science and other subjects. I have a vast knowledge of different subjects which I have studied throughout my education along with the skills I have achieved in my career.
I believe that every student can successfully learn different subjects if the material is presented to them in a way they can understand. Students vary in how they learn; some learn from reading and others from visuals. I will help to identify which style works best for the s ... read more

Every class is different, so your approach has to match that class. So, how you teach in one class is nothing as you would teach in another. I try to get the students involved. I try to get them to see the whole picture.
I have been teaching for over 20 years. During those teaching years, I had the opportunity to expand my knowledge in the sciences by attending various fellowships and workshops during the summers. I also had the opportunity to work in industry for 2 years, so I got the experience of that to bring back into the classroom.
