At Norfolk State University, I began tutoring entry level science courses as a Dozoretz National Institute of Mathematics and Applied Sciences scholar and enjoyed participating in the Minority Association of Pre-Health Students and the Caribbean Student Association. I also tutored undergraduate level courses to ranging from English to Calculus in our Student Support Services. Off campus, I worked with middle school and high school adolescents in the Advancement Via Individual Determination program.I enjoy helping students cultivate the desire to learn and understand the material. My primary goal is to assist in the the question development process and build students' confidence in themselves. My method of coaching students' to ask the "right" questions, he or she is not overwhelmed by the material or feel inadequate due to their disconnect between topcs in a particular subject matter.

I graduated Washington University in St. Louis with a bachelors in Biology. During my time there I tutored many students, aged middle school to college, in subjects including SAT and ACT prep, Algebra, Calculus, Biology, and Chemistry. I then worked in a neuro-psychiatry laboratory before starting medical school in Kansas City. Throughout my lengthy education I have taken several courses on each of the subject that I tutor and have taken quite a few standardized exams. This has allowed me not only to master the information, but also to experience a variety of teaching styles. I know first hand how important it is to tailor teaching towards an individual and always work to make the most of my time spent with those I tutor. In my spare time I enjoy playing and listening to music, singing karaoke, playing tennis, and traveling.

Although formally trained in the biological sciences and in the art of medicine, I have amassed a strong base to be a successful educator. My prior experiences include over 10 years of teaching, tutoring, and educating over a wide range of both community and academic settings ranging from the collegiate to post-graduate level. I have highlighted some of these experiences in the following paragraph.During my undergraduate years, I worked as a TA in both the "Introduction to Biology" and "Biochemistry" courses, where I was responsible for both private and group tutoring. While earning my doctorate in Medical School, I employed myself as an MCAT tutor, providing educational tutoring as well as test-taking and time-management skills coaching. As a medical intern, one responsibility consisted of simultaneously directing the teaching of medical school students and outpatients coming to the various subspecialty clinics for educational workshops. During my post-graduate residency training, I was responsible for providing intraoperative education and scheduled lectures appropriate to the training level and interests of medical students and visiting residents.

I'm a 2013 Truman State University graduate with a Bachelors of Science in biology. I spent the two years following my graduation teaching introductory biology to freshman in Harlingen, Texas. I recently moved back to St. Louis to eventually pursue a doctorate in Physical Therapy.My interests include anything biology related, nutrition, food of all kinds, and reading. Additionally, I am a certified Les Mills BodyCombat instructor and enjoy instructing and working out in general whenever possible.

The University of Kansas is my alma mater. I hold an undergraduate degree in Genetics from KU Lawrence, and I am earning a medical doctorate from KU Medical School. During my undergraduate studies, I was a teaching assistant for basic biology (BIOL 100) as well as the accompanying lab (BIOL 102) for two years. Teaching biology to students who were non-majors in biology was a rewarding learning experience (pun intended). Every student is different, and we all learn in different ways. I understand that different learning styles require different teaching styles, yet the most common approach leading to the road of success is identifying any weak areas and addressing them. I have had wonderful instructors who have done exactly that and have left a lasting impression on me; I know what it's like to have amazing learning experiences, and I am passionate about leaving similar lasting impressions on my own students.

The natural world has been a lifelong fascination for me. As a child, I spent countless hours walking through the woods near my home learning to identify plants as animals. Currently I am finishing writing the publications for a three-year study examining population dynamics in an invaded plant community. I have taught at the collegiate level for four and a half years, including introductory biology for majors and non majors, as well as human anatomy and physiology. I have also taught a summer research course on climate change for high school students, and done presentations on plants and insects for many youth groups.I am a firm believer that communication is the key to learning. The way that I understand material may not be the way that makes the most sense to others, so I strive to work with students to connect the concepts and facts in a way that they can master them. I took a graduate course on Science Instruction that was not required for my degree to further enhance my strategies and skills as a teacher. My experience has taught me that one of the most important attributes a teacher can have is adaptability.Outside of research and teaching, I enjoy spending time outdoors with my dogs and sports.

I attended the University of Detroit Mercy where I gained a Bachelor of Science in Biology. I have also recently graduated with a Masters of Basic Medical Sciences from Wayne State University. As you may be able to tell, I have had a passion for science, especially biology, for many years. My academic journey has given me an immense amount of experience with a wide range of subjects and tests. I know very intimately what it is like to be under pressure to perform well in school and on tests and therefore can relate to students under similar circumstances. I have had the opportunity to tutor many people in a wide range of ages and academic abilities in the past.I tutor a wide range of subjects but am most passionate about Math, Science, Reading, Writing, and Test Preparation. I believe the first and most vital step in working with a student is to identify specifically where he or she is struggling. Every student is different and deserves a teaching method that is tailored to them. I believe students learn best when they are guided along through discussion and hands-on methods as opposed to when they are lectured to; I also believe learning can and should be fun! When it comes to preparing for tests, I believe that what you know is only a small part of the puzzle; perfecting test-taking skills is equally important. I have taken many standardized tests throughout my life, and have been able to do well by understanding the tests and utilizing these skills.When I have spare time, I enjoy staying active by playing basketball and exercising. I also enjoy reading, sports, music and traveling. I look forward to helping you find your full potential on the road to success.

"Love of learning is the guide of life."I am an experienced tutor in a variety of subjects, ranging from the elementary to the college and medical school levels. I am a graduate of Cornell University with a wide range of educational experiences. By combining this knowledge with hard work, I motivate and empower students to learn. I can work with your child on reading, writing, math and SAT prep. I also have the unique ability to work with him or her on social skills and organizational skills. I will work with you and your child to develop the best plan of action. Thank you for your consideration.

I am currently in Graduate School completing a dual degree MD/PhD program in Neuroscience at SUNY Downstate Medical Center. I am a graduate of the Brooklyn College BA-MD program, a program that guides students directly into medical school at SUNY Downstate. I have taught Biology, Chemistry, and Physics at various levels ranging from high school to college and graduate levels, and currently teach numerous classes in my medical school. I have succeeded academically due to my personal philosophy on education: I value complete understanding of material above all else. I am a continuous learner and I strive to teach that to my students. Once a subject is truly understood, tests will be easy, and great grades will follow. With this mindset, I have become talented at understanding where a student's problems with subject matter lie, mainly because I have probably experienced the same issues when I started learning these subjects. Now, I feel confident in passing on my knowledge to other people, and I feel that my last seven years of teaching demonstrate my ability to do so.

I received a Bachelor of Science from the University of Michigan with a concentration in Movement Science through the School of Kinesiology. Following graduation, I moved back to my hometown, where I gained experience as a K-12 substitute teacher and personal tutor. Though I became experienced in a broad range of different subject areas, I am most passionate about math and science. Because of my awareness that these subjects can be extremely monotonous and confusing, especially to a struggling student, I strive to make the subject material fun and interesting through a variety of modes - catered to each individual. My interest in sports, movies, and various card/board games typically allow me to create a humorous and alternative way to learn. I firmly believe that each individual has their own particular way to learn and in order to be most effective, a collaborative effort with the individual and tutor is key for future success.
