I like for students to tell me what they do understand...

...to learn some important things about tutoring; that: * Effective tutoring is usually as much about mentoring as it is about teaching. * There should be no limits to the creativity that the tutor is prepared to bring to the table in helping a student (going beyond the presentation of black letters or numbers on a white page). * In addition to solidifying basic skills, it's critically important to build up a student's creativity, confidence,...

...Arizona University and in Baylor College of medicine: the Biophysics Laboratory, the Microbial and Genomic Laboratory and the Cell Biology Laboratory. I enjoyed designing experiments and working on different instruments. The link between theory and practice, the methodical laboratory preparations, and the tangible results of successful experiments, all seemed to strengthen and solidify my tutoring skills in science. I believe “The purpose of education is to replace an empty mind with an open one” (Malcolm...

...said, ???Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn.??? This quote sums up my teaching philosophy. Students need to be involved and allowed the time to struggle and learn. I can provide support, motivation and patience to the student, and not only an answer. I believe this is more important as it gives them confidence and study techniques instead of just the answer to the specific problem...

I also want to make sure there is an open line...

...teacher and contribute to the blooming of the students lives, can exceed a mere sense of satisfaction, and be very inspiring. Ever since the age of eighteen, teaching has always been a career for me; at times full-time, and at times simply because I enjoyed it. It was also at this age that I decided that in order to be the best educator I could possibly be, I would need knowledge, as well as qualifications,...

Throughout my teaching experience, especially through Academic Decathlon, I have kept my skills sharp across these subject areas. I...

...visiting my old school teachers on career days. In science, there are no stupid questions, nor are there unqualified pupils. You don't have to have an interest in science to appreciate its achievements or to contribute to its progress, you simply need to be human - that is, to be curious. I know that modern science can seem a wholly complicated and vast subject matter that seems insurmountable. While that reputation is not unwarranted, I...
