...important because it is very hard for a visual learner to learn from just listening. I also engage the student in learning. For example, having them label a diagram that I have just talked about. Most important -I encourage my students to ask questions, make comments, even disagree with me. I like making math and science come alive for students. I have successfully worked with elementary, middle school, and high school students. I am also...

...to make. While not everything can be taught purely in this fashion, I try to make my lessons focus on principles and processes, creating a deeper understanding of the facts presented in class or in the textbook. I find that this technique works very well with math and physics, where understanding the theory is often the key to being able to see a problem and find the right path to a solution. I also try...

...the NIH. I have experience tutoring college, high school, and middle school students. During tutoring sessions I like to pinpoint where the problem areas are and begin by working with students on the fundamentals. Once the basics are covered I like to work through problems together as a way to learn material, but ask that students spend some time studying topics at home/doing practice problems that we can go over during the tutoring sessions.

...that does not mean it has to be a boring and tedious task. We tend to retain fun, useless information that interests us the most, but most fail to realize how much power those known memories have on our potential to make new ones. One of the techniques that I teach my students is how to use that everyday “useless" trivia, and apply it to what they NEED to remember. I have a wealth of...

...a student while working through a problem and developing a stronger understanding for the subject matter at hand. Teaching runs in my family and my parents and older sister have instilled in me a desire to work in education and share my enthusiasm for learning with others. In my experience, each student has a slightly different learning style, so I always try to patiently employ any number of different tutoring strategies to create a personalized...

I understand their goals and what they aim to get out of the tutoring sessions.... Engage in more active learning. Go through problems and focus on the process of coming to a correct...

...NIH to summer students and thoroughly enjoyed it. My students loved the way I explained things to them in detail and also the fact that I pushed them to being independent but being there for them when needed. I obviously do not have a strong tutoring experience, but I know I have a penchant for the biological sciences and skills in reading and writing, which would allow me to impart this knowledge to a student who...

...experience tutoring undergraduate students in Science, mostly Biology and Chemistry. I love bringing a student out of their shell and having a conversation about the material. I think the best way for anyone to learn is to explain the new information in different ways that relate back to their own life and having a conversation about the material is the easiest way to do that. In my spare time, I love trying new food, cheering...

...I joined The Johns Hopkins School of Medicine directly after undergraduate, and I am currently taking a research year between my third and fourth years. I love science and enjoy teaching people about the things that I am passionate about. I have a strong background in biochemistry, but I feel comfortable with most sciences. Work hard, play hard is how I try to approach life, so when I am not busy with medical school I...

...my other favorite pastimes are reading, watching movies, and spending time with my friends. I have tutored high school students in the past, and have focused on the sciences. However, I find that I can relate to and communicate with students of all ages, and am capable of teaching more than just the sciences. In the past, I have taught students effective homework and test-taking skills. I also understand how to simplify complex ideas that...
