Guide them through questions without telling them the answer, gradually removing supports with each practice until they are able to complete the task on their own.

...and presenting it to my students in a clear and understandable manner. Biology is more a story than memorizing a long list of facts, and as a Biology "story teller", my students retain more information than they ever did before. While at Stony Brook University, I worked as an assistant teaching new high school AP Biology teachers from the Tri-State area. Here I re-visited the high school curriculum, and soon after broadened my teaching experiences...

...I am taking a gap year to explore other interests. As a student I was never the most talented student, but I achieved high success through relentless effort and developing unique strategies for success in academics. I understand how foreign complex concepts may seem in classes because I have been the confused student in the class before. At the University of Miami I was a chemistry workshop leader, where I helped explain challenging premedical chemistry...
