Experience
Teaching is one of my passions, so I'm glad that I am able to apply my Master of Education in Science to tutoring. I received both my master's degree and my undergraduate degree in biology from East Carolina University. I have spent a lot of time working in classrooms as an assistant teacher, or as a tutor, and I love to pass along my love of biology and science to my students. I can teach many course levels, from Advanced Placement to college prep. My tutoring specialties are biology, chemistry, and algebra I and II. However, biology is definitely my all-time favorite subject to teach, because we are all biological organisms, and the study helps us understand what life is, where it came from, and how our body systems work. Science helps students learn critical thinking skills through using the scientific method, and once they learn these skills, they will feel much more confident and successful. As a tutor, I work with my students to understand the basic concepts of the subject they struggle with, so they can build on that foundation. Rote memorization doesn't work for most people, and it especially doesn't work if the student doesn't understand the basic parts of the academic subject to begin with.
