Award-Winning Microbiology Tutors serving Maryland

...strategies to enhance learning. Since graduation, I have worked on several research projects in biomedical science, including an international public health project in India. I am passionate about learning and education and enjoy helping others discover the joy in educational exploration. I use my enthusiasm for learning and intense attention to my students to find individualized ways to inspire them to find their own passion for education. I am currently working as a veterinary technician...

...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...

...but I go by TJ. I am currently working as a bioinformatics scientist for the National Institute on Aging. I have tutored before during my undergraduate years at the University of Michigan as well as while I was a Peace Corps Volunteer in Peru. I have to say that tutoring in my native language of English was significantly easier! I really enjoy science and math courses, as well as Spanish due to my time in...

...of the more "fun" parts of my application. It was great to see how my students could eventually come around to seeing standardized tests as a puzzle, rather than a chore. I've since spent several semesters as an Introductory Chemistry TA during my undergrad at Amherst College, where I majored in Biochemistry and Biophysics, magna cum laude. I'm also pre-med; I'm applying to medical schools now, for matriculation in the fall of 2014. I'm very...

...equation for the problem at hand, how to do a problem from start to finish using logical steps and tapping into the knowledge you already know, how to eliminate wrong answers on tricky multiple choice questions, and how to efficiently study so that you still have time to relax and have a life (very important for success). Contrary to popular belief, most PhD students do not live in the lab. I like to get out...

I am a Maryland transplant. My undergraduate was in Biology and my masters was in Health Administration. I work in healthcare IT now and help build software for doctors/nurses. I started tutoring in high school in math and science. I've tutored middle school students all the way to middle-aged prison inmates trying to get their GED. I have since branched out to test prep and college preparedness.

...My teaching style demonstrates dedication to fostering a positive learning environment to all students and maximizing individual student performance.

...cycle. My private tutoring services include, among other things, proofreading college admissions essays, making sure the final product is leaves a positive lasting impression. With my assistance, one could not be more prepared to help land the college of his/her dreams! My services also include science and math tutoring ranging from elementary school level to college aged students. My two years of being an undergraduate teaching assistant at the University of Maryland, College Park have...

...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...

Hi, I'm Claudia! I love using the outdoors as a classroom and an opportunity for exploration and expression. I've spent the last several years working with all age groups, from toddlers to college freshmen, to make learning as fun as it is important. Ask me about mollusks or the American South (or anything really)!

...two Bachelor's Degrees in Cellular Biology and Chemistry (Universite Paul Sabatier - Toulouse France and University of Houston - Houston TX). Fluent in English, French, and Spanish. Literate in Dutch and German. Having life and school experience in Latin America, Caribbean, Europe, and the United States has allowed me to emphasize the importance of a solid foundation and a positive experience to allow me to be the person I have always hoped to be. My...

...took the test. Her score was competitive and it enabled her to get into nursing school from which she graduated 2 years later. She was so pleased with my lessons that she hired me to help her prepare for her next exam, the NCLEX-RN. It's a tough test that is required to become licensed to practice as a Registered Nurse. The best way to approach it is with test-taking strategies, so I taught her several...

...and I love to tutor it as well. I have been doing it since I was very young and my favorite topics are science related, like microbiology, biology, chemistry and others. However, I have tutored many other subjects too. Additionally, I can speak both English and Spanish languages. In my free time I enjoy reading and writing about science and I also dabble in music by playing my guitar. Feel free to contact me if...

I aim to increase student confidence by teaching the thought processes that allow for successful problem solving in their hard subjects. Armed with this knowledge and a few study tips along the way I aim to build self sufficient and competent learners who find success in all academic endeavors....

...I strive to achieve as an educator. Objective 1: Students should understand the relevance of biology to their lives. I emphasize relevance by discussing current research studies and findings pertinent to the topic at hand by asking students to share their knowledge on the subject and by discussing how I have found the knowledge useful. Objective 2: Students should know where to find information, how to critically evaluate that information, and how to make an...

...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 knowledge that I would love to share with my students, especially about the sciences. But, at the end of the day, I want to see my students succeed and be...

I have a large range of tutoring experience from very young to adult. I enjoy teaching and am considered to have a youthful/ caring approach as I try to make sure that learning takes place in a relaxed but studious situation.

Currently, I teach health science at the high school level. I am well versed in sciences at many levels and have experience tutoring in sciences up to the undergraduate level. I am now open to schedule remote tutoring sessions in the evenings...

...school. I have found that the best way to tutor a student is to address each students needs and gain an understanding of their unique thought process; nobody solves a problem the exact same way. With many educational institutions adapting a philosophy of "teaching to the test" rather than an understanding, I feel an individualistic approach is the best way to complement this paradigm. When I am not working, I enjoy working on my project...

I'm a medical school graduate and about to begin residency this July. I'm hoping to be able to encourage students in all aspects of their education. I'm patient, flexible and will do my best to enrich your academic experience.
