Award-Winning Physiology Tutors serving Bartlett, TN

...have extensive experience with teaching, having served as a teaching assistant during my time in Washington University in Organic Chemistry and as a tutor in Organic Chemistry and Biology. I have a strong background in the basic sciences and can provide a solid foundation in Biology, Chemistry and Physics. I believe strongly in a holistic approach to teaching because in my experience students are far more willing to learn when seemingly arcane subjects can be...

...have taught courses at the collegiate level, tutored privately in numerous settings, and have an advanced degree in a critical thinking field. I love teaching and building relationships with my students. I try to make my students feel comfortable around me and learn their study habits in order for me to tailor my lessons to help them learn in the most effective manner. I love to run, bike, ride horses, and mostly do things outdoors...

...on exactly where the difficulty lies. While working to use our time efficiently, I also believe that an intense, lecture-driven approach is rarely conducive to fostering an atmosphere of curiosity and willingness to try. Therefore, I will regularly solicit feedback, encourage questions, and assess what methods work best for you so that I can adjust my approach accordingly. Having tutored students since high school, I firmly believe that learning and education can be life-changing when...

...know them, and helping them to grasp new ideas and concepts. It was a joy to watch them learn and share the pride they exhibited in their newfound knowledge. One method I found to be particularly effective was to break complex concepts down into simpler parts and help the student to organize those parts in a way that made more sense to them. This helped them to see the big picture. In my free time,...

...American universities. During my undergraduate sophomore year, I tutored college-level chemistry and was a Teaching Assistant (TA) for a biology course. The summer after that I gained more experience tutoring middle/high school students in Math/English through community members. My duties often involved teaching novel concepts to students, assisting with homework, and breaking down difficult material into more understandable terms. I have a diverse and strong experience in mathematics, including algebra, geometry, calculus, and trigonometry. I...

...in some special cases, college sciences. During college, I tutored more than a dozen courses from start to finish. By using analogies, drawing diagrams, and asking the student questions, I was able to break through to students who were previously panicked about the possibility of failure. I believe in an "active" approach to tutoring which includes asking the student questions to not only get closer to a complicated answer, but to build the student's confidence....

...meaningless unless it is shared and applied. I now want to share the knowledge I have acquired over an education of 25 years to teach students and facilitate their learning. Teaching is an art as much as it is a skill; I love teaching; having been a student all my life, I know how to overcome obstacles that many students face every day. I'm a well-qualified tutor, who can provide not only first-class teaching, but...

...a great teacher while in medical school that told me that the best way to teach someone is to make it interesting and teach it in a way that makes sense. In my free time I like to read, listen to music, hike, snow-ski, ride my bicycle and cook as well as go to the movies, and play video games. I have taught merit badge classes to Boy Scouts and tutored math and science. Learning...

...medical training to offer that to my students. Im thankful for the opportunities Ive had in my medical practice to better my ability to break down and assimilate difficult concepts for myself as well as the opportunity to tutor some of my classmates. I'm also thankful to all the students I've tutored in the past who have given me the chance to grow in my ability to explain difficult concepts more creatively, and from whom...

...problems and relating their applications to the real world. With Science, there are many ways to explain processes, including through the use of analogies and metaphors. However, standardized exam preparation is my favorite subject to tutor because it requires the development of strategies as well as knowledge. It allows students to improve critical thinking skills that will not only be useful for exams, but in their future academic, professional, and personal ventures. As a tutor,...
