About Me
I am a credentialed teacher certified to teach in both CA
and TX (over 8 years of teaching experience). I have taught in the classroom (public
schools and college) as well as on a one on one basis for tutorials. I have a
Masters in Microbiology and Bachelors in Microbiology and Biochemistry.
I am looking
forward to tutoring becauseI love learning and sharing. I like teaching science
to Middle/High school students because they are capable of enjoying life's
mysteries and explanations that science has to offer! Having studied and taught
for several years, I have an excellent understanding of concepts in genetics, evolution,
ecology, molecular biology, animal and plant biology. I am familiar with the biology curriculum and (AP/SAT/ACT
) exam format.
My job is to help
students do their best. I can design my lessons to help a student who is
struggling or help a student who is doing well but wants to excel.
- discussing and analyzing
his/her understanding and background of the topic/ concept
- presenting
complex concepts in a manner which is easy to understand by using diagrams,
giving examples and solving problems
- reviewing concepts by summarizing and discussing
questions and problems related to the concepts
- evaluating understanding using pop quizzes and problems
I look forward to
tutoring and raising student's interest in science / confidence in his/her
ability to excel. Lessons can be arranged in the library or home.
