Experience
In my sixteen years of teaching, I've worked with learners from students to student teachers preparing to take on science classes professionally. I've grown with my students over the years. As a tutor, this helps because I've learned a lot about how students learn. I know the common roadblocks students faced with challenging topics. I often take abstract concepts and create cartoon and word pictures. With a concept such as mRNA translation, this helps to see the big picture. I then add vocabulary when students are ready to move forward.I've taught in pretty much every bio-sciences discipline from middle school up to college level students. My studies included work at Virginia Polytechnical and State University, the University of Cincinnati, North Carolina State University, and Vanderbilt University. Educational experiences in my post-bachelor's studies have prepared me to tutor students from all walks of life. Currently, I participate in various educator groups and conferences. These let me still learn from my peers. A story teller at heart, I've got some book ideas floating around my brain. When there is time, I transform into a video gamer, but I also like to cook, work in my garden, and am an amateur entomologist.
