...technical writing. I pride myself on adapting to students’ needs and thinking of creative ways to teach biological concepts. Additionally, I love helping students develop standardized test taking strategies for AP exams and the ACT to build confidence and complement their knowledge. Years applying to various programs and funding agencies have also helped me develop sound strategies for focusing on individual strengths and exuding confidence when writing personal statements or funding proposals. I would love...

...were previously challenging, gave me a sense of satisfaction that was hard to equal. While I tutor Spanish and math, I prefer Spanish, due the travel opportunities learning Spanish affords. With respect to my tutoring style, I like to let the student guide the session, with me acting as a moderator and teacher, rather than a disciplinarian. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy weight lifting and being physically active, traveling, spending time with family, reading.... I like to make sure students are actively engaged in the learning process and not passive participants.

...Health Sciences. I have successfully completed my first professional year and will return this fall to complete the second year of the program. In May of 2015 I graduated from Sacred Heart University with a bachelors degree in Biology and a minor in Chemistry. During my four years at Sacred Heart University I also had the great honor of being a D1 athlete on the Track and Field Team. I have always had a love...

...I spend a great deal of time with my dogs. I love to cook and have large family meals, which makes Thanksgiving my favorite holiday! I have accomplished writing an article for Ducks Unlimited and it is published on their website. I feel accomplishments should be celebrated and I hope to bestow this upon my students. I have an approach to teaching that focuses on “HOW” I am able to present, encourage and get results...

...am a medical student at Texas A&M College of Medicine. I have knowledge in a broad field of areas and subjects and I am always excited to teach willing students. My philosophy is that there are no hard subjects. Any difficult concept can be broken down into easier, more digestible content, based on how well a tutor can understand their students. And that is what I believe I can help achieve with any student of...

...Science in Biology. I love teaching the sciences for all levels, especially biology, chemistry (including organic chemistry which is my favorite!). I am currently applying to medical school and recently took the MCAT which has further strengthened my knowledge in these subject areas. At Boston College, I tutored numerous students in the sciences and lab sections while developing personalized tutoring sessions to meet each students' needs. I was a Teaching Assistant for an introductory biology...

...sponsor of a group called American History Enthusiasts. A teacher must also be a student. As a former practicing plastic and reconstructive surgeon I have gained a practical knowledge of anatomy, physiology, patient care and the art of dealing with patients and their families. I taught surgery residents and nurses about operative techniques and patient care. This background nicely translates into my ability to teach and relate to students and their families. I am patient,...

I am a scientist with 30 years in the drug development industry, but I have a passion for teaching. I currently teach Biology and Anatomy part-time at the community college level. I think I bring a unique perspective to teaching and tutoring because I live what I teach, I use Biology concepts every day at work. I relate well to students one-on-one and love teaching!... I try to tailor my teaching style to fit the individual student, but my default is to teach using multiple examples that relate to everyday life, to help the student understand and remember key concepts.

...minor in Anthropology from the University of Notre Dame. After graduation, I entered a M.S. graduate program in Biology at Arizona State University. When I'm not teaching biology to undergraduate majors at ASU, I research topics in aquatic ecology. Understanding the connectedness and patterns of environmental processes in aquatic ecosystems drives my passion to become an ecologist! My goal is to help students view learning as a positive experience! When students learn with me, they...

...most improvement. I have benefited from various tutoring interventions myself, and know the value of having an efficient tutor. My strength as a tutor comes from the fact that I go above and beyond to make sure that not only do my students understand the material being taught, but that they are also able to study efficiently and learn time management skills--skills that can help them improve on their own, even in the absence of...
