Natasha: Nashville MCAT course instructor
...learn best and what motivates them. I want my students to feel a passion for learning, even if they do not feel it for every subject. I have been told that I bring energy, enthusiasm, and creativity to the learning environment, and that these qualities are contagious. I hope to pass this enthusiasm for learning on to my students and that my students will, in turn, pass it on to those around them.... My teaching philosophy is very much about empowering the student to learn independently. If a student can identify how they learn best, then all studies and disciplines open up to them. In addition, if students can hone their analytic, reading, communication, and study skills, while at the same time opening themselves up to many different disciplines in order to discover what they are most passionate about, they become endowed with an unmistakable confidence in their own ability. This confidence, together with the curiosity that is conceived from such habits of study, is what engenders the greatness of mind that has so often brought about positive change in the world.

...knowledge in Health Assessment, Fundamentals of Nursing, Critical Care/Emergency Nursing and Mental Health Nursing. I've been a clinical instructor for the past 4 years. My teaching style is extremely laid back, there's too much going on in this world to stress you out- I absolutely refuse to aid in making education a stressful, anxious experience. I use real world examples while teaching, I find this works best to bridge the (large) gap between knowledge and...

If I can show the parallel between a student's extracurricular interest or hobby, I can figure out how to teach them absolutely anything. I always say, "If the analogy fits, use it!".

Elizabeth: Nashville MCAT course instructor
...students achieve their potential. My previous tutoring experiences include teaching high school biology, SAT prep, math tutoring, and tutoring medical students at risk for failing a course. I focus on individualizing my teaching style to meet each students needs by first trying to identify the underlying factors that are keeping each student from excelling. I have a B.S. in Biology and a PhD in Immunology and Virology and enjoy tutoring both math and science.... Learning is more fun when you can understand why the information is important. What keeps each person from excelling is different. Before going over the material the same old way, I like to try and identify the specific barrier to understanding for each student. I try to focus on the big picture, answering the question "Why does this matter?"
