Here's a site for people interested in improving science literacy and education, including but not limited to: Parents, science educators, home school teachers, science industries, botanical gardens, museums, and, zoological garden staff. Please feel free to post a comment with ideas or links. Use the search bar at the top left of the blog to find subjects (If you don't find something, please leave a comment.). The left hand column has reference links and the bottom has a survey.
Hi. I have extensive experience in science education and tutoring, a doctorate in a biological field, research that requires advanced knowledge in engineering and biochemistry. My teaching includes courses and laboratories in biology, chemistry, Earth science, genetics, botany, anatomy and physiology and many other subjects on a college level, and also in pre-K-12 science classes, will help you to succeed. At Harvard University, I honed my algebra teaching skills, after getting my doctorate at UNH. That math expertise facilitates math, engineering and advanced science subject learning for my students. I am certified to teach middle school and high school and have taught for (10+ years at those levels. I am willing to tutor in NH, MA, NY, and elsewhere via Skype including students in Africa and Europe. For example, a Hungarian student via Skype got the top score on his exit exam from university.) I present workshops in higher order thinking skills, too, for colleges, schools, parents, families, libraries and home schools.
I have taught from pre-Kindergarten through University, and have been successful in industry, so, I can help you fill in gaps in your education. If you need to close the gap because your high school didn't prepare you for college, I can help you do that. I am great with STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) topics. I do not do the work for you. I help you know how to learn what you need to know to succeed.
The students I've had for biology passed their nursing board exams the first time. (Congratulations to you!)
I also help students develop career direction so they can focus their studies better. If you are serious about wanting to learn, I can help you.

Word of the Day: Words are added to this blog each day, but, they change on archived posts. Today's word is a science word, so I've added it here, in the posts, so that we can look at it again in the archived versions and still see what the word is. I've also added questions for a discussion and writing exercise about the word. You might like to keep a notebook or a spreadsheet or data base file about your words. I do this for new vocabulary I want to remember and for words I like to use. I then use the file in many way to enhance my own vocabulary development.
It is said, "Eh-see-ses" and rhymes with , "yes," and the "c" sounds like and "s.""Ecesis," means, "The successful establishment of a plant or animal species in a habitat." A synonym is, "establishment. "A sample sentence is: "The ecologists were especially interested in ensuring the ecesis of the endangered species in the wildlife refuge."
Did you know this word, "ecesis," before?
Will you remember it now?
How does building your vocabulary help you learn more science?
