...always enjoyed working with children of all ages. It was my own youthful fascination with the natural world which led me to study science - the kid in me is what helps me connect with children. I place an emphasis on giving each child the tools they need to figure things out for themselves, especially for math and hard sciences such as chemistry. When students learn the correct way to approach problems, they...

...the opportunity to utilize my knowledge and experience in microbiology and the biological sciences. I tutor the subjects of Microbiology, Genetics, and General Biology. My favorite subject to tutor is Microbiology as I have 25 years experience as a research scientist studying the genetics and molecular mechanisms of microbial pathogens at Medical Research Institutions and Universities around the world. I have lived in three countries, have numerous friends from different cultures, and have traveled extensively...

...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 Peru. I hope to help others reach their educational dreams, as I continue to do so through my work and continuing...

I am a current 3rd Year Medical student from Iowa who is currently living in Baltimore. I am a visual learner who excels at visual teaching but is flexible enough to teach in whichever way is best for my students. I am experienced in working with students who have ADHD.

...the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, a M.A. in Russian Language and Linguistics from The University of Maryland at College Park and a M.A. in Molecular Biotechnology from the George Washington University. During the course of my formal education I served as a Teaching Assistant in a First Year Russian Course and a teaching assistant in a General Biology course. After my graduation from the George Washington University, I worked as a faculty member at...

...my mission is to help students have fun and genuine learning experiences, while also supporting them to be successful in classes, tests, admissions, and life. This means that in addition to tutoring students for specific subjects and exams, I also enjoy helping students (especially at the beginning of high school and college) plan out their future goals and careers. Talk to me about your classes, but also feel free to ask about exploring new interests...

...apportioning and distributing breakfast for them, preparing their lunch, and teaching them English. These 20 children ranged in ages from 3 to 16 years old, and none of them had any English in their vocabulary before we arrived. Thus, the challenge to communicate with them was great, but the rewards were even greater when I was able to do so. Although I only had three weeks to share with these children, I believe that the...

...my dissertation work in the lab of Dr. Joel Schildbach. I was a 2012-2013 Dean's Teaching Fellow in the Biology Department at Johns Hopkins University. Last fall, I was a lecturer at Johns Hopkins University, teaching the freshman only seminar "The Human Microbiome". This course was a modified version of the course I taught as a Dean's Teaching Fellow. I have also been a teaching assistant for various other courses, including Biochemistry, the freshman only...

...and detail. I received an IB diploma upon high school completion and BS in Biology from Colorado State University in 2011. I am currently enrolled in a paramedic certification program in the DC area. I volunteered as a tutor in college working with students from kindergarten to high school seniors. I am excited to help students understand confusing ideas and subjects. Knowledge is power and learning can be fun, so let's get to work.... Anyone can...

...explain it better to my patients. My tutoring style is similar to the doctor-patient relationship: being patient, explaining concepts in basic terms that are easy to understand, being constantly available for assistance at anytime, and helping my students WANT to make progress in their studies (similar to making my patients WANT to improve their health). Aside from my medical work, I play both the violin and the piano, and find music to be very therapeutic...

...exam, a class, or take a standardized test. My favorite subjects are Biology and Chemistry (not surprisingly), but I have also tutored Math and Physics successfully to my fellow undergraduates at Boston College as well as high school and middle school students. I found that it is not the content but how you learn it that really is important on test day. Among the skills I hope to pass along include how to memorize loads...

...unpack an abstract concept (such as mRNA translation, for example) into both cartoon and word pictures so that we all "see" the big picture, then add the vocabulary to the concept once all are ready to move on. Not surprisingly, I am a bit of a story teller and have more than a few book ideas floating around in my brain. I am an active participant in several educator groups and conferences so that I...

...imaginative and creative thinking, growth, independence, exploration, problem-solving skills, science, etc. I hold a PhD and postodoctoral experience in Biochemistry with Master's in Microbiology.

...about tutoring science and more specifically biology and chemistry. I am constantly fascinated by science in everyday life which explains my favoritism towards biology! I am a strong believer in inquiry-based education where teacher and students constantly question and investigate problems rather than seek a single answer. I believe this not only increases a student's understanding of the problem, but also increases their understanding of the entire topic. In addition to tutoring and horseback riding,...

Microbiology is a fantastic discipline. After I graduated from faculty of Medicine, I specialized in it. After I proceeded with my master degree from UK and then finished the PhD in Egypt; my home country. I like tutoring because I enjoy making people happy getting catch of the knowledge I already acquired during my journey. I have been teaching university students for about 6 years.

...in SAT writing and reading, with special techniques of my own for upping the score for the SAT writing section. I was a chemistry lab teaching assistant for two years for the Chemistry Department at Johns Hopkins University. The selection process for teaching assistants included mastery of chemistry concepts, ability to demonstrate teaching, clarity in communication and listening skills, and high level of responsibility. I supervised one group of 20-24 Johns Hopkins freshman students per...

...and build their foundational skills to make them a more well-rounded student and a better learner. My Bachelor's of Science in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology is from Stockton University. I became passionate about tutoring in my undergraduate studies at Stockton. While it originally started so I could help myself review for the MCAT and my senior classes, I genuinely enjoyed helping others learn. I now live for the lightbulb moment of understanding. Right now, I...

...instructed an undergraduate general biology lab, and I offered tutoring assistance to my students outside of class. I enjoyed my teaching experience, and I received favorable reviews from my students. I feel very fortunate to have been offered some outstanding educational opportunities throughout my career, and I am eager to help students succeed in attaining their own opportunities. In my free time, I enjoy playing with my 5-year old son, grilling, and softball.
