Experience
Hi there, I believe teaching is a way to continue learning while increasing students knowledge. On the other hand, tutoring is a combination of teaching and guidance. As a tutor, I guide students to improve their grades and provide the motivation and eagerness to learn a subject. I have a bachelor's degree in Biology from and a master's degree in Biological and Physical Sciences. I took many courses in the Biomedical Sciences as part of a master's degree curriculum. More than 5 years of exposure to the Biomedical Sciences make me a great knowledgeable tutor who will work at your pace and will help you achieve the scores you want to become a successful student in the sciences. As a biologist, I know that the best way to learn the sciences is by understanding their concepts through graphics and figures rather than memorizing them. I can teach all levels of Biology, as well as Anatomy and Physiology. We will start by making a study plan on the concepts you have problems with and then, we will tackle them one by one with the help of color graphics, practicing questions and explanations. I also provide cheat sheets to help you memorize and understand the concepts. I am also a Spanish tutor. I am a native Spanish speaker with a superlative command of the Spanish language. Throughout my life, I have been exposed to the Spanish language and culture. I did primary school in Peru (elementary, middle and high school) and also did three years of college there. Based on this background, my Spanish proficiency is excellent since I have taken Spanish classes in different areas/subjects for about 20 years of my life. I took different Spanish grammar and advanced literature classes. I also took Spanish World Civilization, Iberian/Spanish History, and Latin Bilingualism. I have previously worked translating documents at work and as an oral translator between my coworkers and Spanish people. I will help you learn Spanish, the culture, literature, history and of course grammar explanations, conversation and intonation to high standards. I teach all levels of Spanish to students of all ages. We will work on a study plan suited to your needs, practice lots of questions and the use of Spanish words in a correct context. I will give you homework which is going to be evaluated and explained to you in the next session. Spanish language as any other language is learned by practice, practice and more practice! I tailor my tutoring sessions based on individual student needs and learning styles. My goal is to build confidence in your own capability through the support and encouragement I plan to provide you. I believe that making learning fun is an important part in helping my students to develop an ongoing passion for learning. I am happy to travel up to 10 miles from Harrison, NJ. For new students, I require a minimum of 1 1/2 hours for the first lesson because I need to set up a study plan for the material you have trouble with. No checks, payment is through Paypal or cash.
