Description: Our tutoring services are structured as follows:

• Homework Help –Our students are not just given the answers to their homework questions – we show them how to work out the problems and re-teach the concepts if necessary. Our teaching style is personalized, friendly but firm.
• Enrichment – Students who are already proficient in the material for their current grade level are given advanced lessons that could be at least a grade level ahead. The academic enrichment component of the program ensures that learning is always taking place.
• Remedial – Students who have difficulty learning their concepts in the classroom for whatever reason get the intervention they need to catch up on their lessons.

I provide progress reports (ThinkWave), have been background checked and invite you to interview me online. Check out my website!

Students may need help understanding a variety of concepts in biology such as dihybrid crosses, gene expression or evolutionary theory just to name a few. Maybe you need help with lab reports, science fair projects, science homework or preparing for an exam. Do you require assistance in other areas such as earth science, environmental science, or science K-8? I can help! I hold a degree in biology and have been teaching for 15 years.

Description: Hi! My name is Tricia. I have a about 5 years of experience tutoring over 80 students from elementary to college age. I'm currently a practicing engineer at a medical device company and tutor in my free time. It's something I truly love to do, there's nothing better than witnessing the "light bulb" moment.

Through participating in a biomedical engineering curriculum, I learned to critically think about different subjects and how they relate to each other, which I use to tutor and help students understand. I also aim to instill critical thinking techniques when teaching, allowing students to move away from memorization and towards logical thinking and problem solving, which in turn helps them retain the information and score better on exams.

When tutoring I try to incorporate a comfortable and fun environment to promote learning. I feel that the more comfortable one is when learning, the more beneficial the lesson will be. I try to build my students' confidence in order for them to feel comfortable asking questions and communicating their weaknesses. In this way I try to direct my teaching to each student's learning style and learning rate. I also try to promote good organization and study techniques, which I feel are important in order to focus one's attention and provide for clearer thinking.

I am confident that my experience will be well suited for your goals. Please feel free to contact me with any questions. I hope to hear from you soon and help you in your success!      << View Less
