Science class overview

My teaching approach as a tutor is centered on creating an engaging and effective learning environment for college-level students. I emphasize visual models, real-world contexts, and hands-on learning to make complex subjects like Physical Science, Astronomy, Health Science, and others more accessible. By incorporating the scientific method and data analysis into my personalized tutoring, I help students grasp concepts thoroughly. I leverage a variety of tech tools such as digital whiteboards, interactive quizzes, and game-based learning platforms to make online learning interactive and dynamic. Following curricula like A-Levels (UK) and Advanced Placement (AP) Program (USA) ensures alignment with academic standards. My methodology strengths lie in fostering a deep understanding of subjects through interactive lessons and tailored support, ultimately empowering students to excel in their college courses.
