A Little Bit About Me...

My true passion in life is for teaching. Since I was a teen, I have gravitated toward teaching, and have been blessed to be continually drawn back to my gift – teaching! My multiple years of experience and education in teaching methods and learning styles have lent themselves well to my success in helping students grasp very complex scientific concepts. Students find my unique life-related “stories” that parallel biological processes extremely useful in remembering the intricacies of each process for exam time and beyond.
My objective in attaining a Ph.D, was to create the opportunity for myself to teach Biology related courses at any level. My graduate school experience was a fantastic springboard for gaining experience in teaching an array of biology courses. As tutor for an academic excellence program, I worked with students, in small group settings. We explored complex ma ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love to be hands-on in my tutoring. I feel that problem solving is the key to understanding a topic. If you can work through a question and understand the steps involved, then the knowledge of the subject is definate. I would love to help your child obtain a high degree of success in their studies. I have obtained very high marks in my college career and hope that the passion for science that I possess can be felt and passed on to your child.
As a college graduate I was motivated to find a job and begin my career. I have decided that after three and a half years of hard work through school and a gratifying 3 years of labratory experience (including 6 months of post-graduate full time work) that I am not ready for a career in chemistry. I have decided to slow the pace down and enjoy life for a while. I have lived in Aspen since December and worked for the SkiCo for that tim ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I bring a lot of energy to the classroom and ensure that I am over-prepared for each lesson. I enjoy involving every student in a classroom setting and encourage an active, open learning environment. I also believe it is a very valuable experience to be able to work with students one-on-one. I like to work with each student to figure out his or her individual learning style and needs. Though it may not be applicable for this position, I try to plan group activities when possible, so that students can learn from one another and help each other work through problems.
Before deciding to return to graduate school in 2006, my relevant professional experience included teaching LSAT courses through Kaplan in the Washington, DC area during 2005. Previously, I had tutored high school students in languages and math with University Instructors from 2003-2004 in Williamsburg, VA. I also t ... read more
