About Me

I am an American, 65, who has spent 15 years working in various scientific and biotechnology fields in the USA. My background is in microbiology, but I have done cell culture, various chemical analyses, animal experiments, tissue staining, and assays such as ELISA and RIA. My work history has involved being on interdisciplinary teams, so I have acquired a lot of knowledge of molecular biology, assay development, purification, and regulatory affairs.

I also trained sales and technical staff from 10 countries on the operations of cell culture instrumentation. Part of that work was done in Tokyo, but most was in the USA. I have published scientific papers, posters, manuals, abstracts, lab application reports for marketing, and laboratory protocols. In my university position in Japan, I proofread many papers and posters from science professors and graduate students in many fields.

Education

Master of Science degree, microbiology. University of Wisconsin - LaCrosse (1982)
Bachelor of Science degree, biology. University of Minnesota - Minneapolis (1978)

Experience / Qualifications

Over 20 years of proofreading scientific materials for Japanese science researchers and graduate students.
Published papers, posters, abstracts, manuals, lab protocols, and marketing application reports.

As a dedicated tutor with extensive experience in preparing students for standardized exams such as the SAT, GMAT, and SSAT, I understand the unique challenges that each of these tests presents. My approach is comprehensive and focuses on building a strong foundation in critical areas such as Mathematics, Quantitative Reasoning, Verbal Skills, and Analytical Writing. Each program I develop is tailored to the specific requirements of the exam, ensuring that students are well-prepared and confident on test day.

Having a deep understanding of the test formats and question types allows me to provide personalized strategies that target each student's individual strengths and weaknesses. I believe that every student has a unique learning style, and my goal is to enhance their test-taking skills while improving their time management. By fostering a supportive learning environment, I aim to boost students' confidence and empower them to achieve top scores.

My tutoring sessions incorporate a variety of effective methods, including real exam questions and timed practice tests. This hands-on approach allows students to familiarize themselves with the types of questions they will encounter, making the actual exam feel less daunting. I teach proven techniques for tackling even the most challenging problems, ensuring that students feel equipped to handle any question that comes their way.

One of the key components of my tutoring is helping students develop effective study habits. I provide guidance on creating a structured study plan that maximizes their preparation time and aligns with their personal goals. This structured approach not only keeps students on track but also helps them build a sense of accountability, which is crucial for success.

In addition to academic preparation, I also focus on the psychological aspects of test-taking. Many students experience anxiety leading up to exams, which can affect their performance. I teach relaxation techniques and mental strategies to help manage stress, allowing students to approach their exams with a calm and focused mindset. By addressing both the academic and emotional challenges of test preparation, I equip students with a well-rounded toolkit for success.

Feedback is an essential part of the learning process, and I make it a priority to provide constructive and actionable insights during our sessions. After each practice test, I conduct a thorough review of the results, highlighting areas for improvement while also acknowledging progress. This continuous feedback loop helps students understand their growth and keeps them motivated throughout their preparation.

My commitment to student success goes beyond just teaching content. I aim to inspire a love for learning and self-improvement in each of my students. Many of my former students have gone on to achieve their academic goals, securing places at prestigious universities and programs. Their success stories are a testament to the effectiveness of my tailored approach and the dedication I bring to each tutoring session.

If you're looking to master the SAT, GMAT, or SSAT with confidence, I invite you to book a session now. Together, we will develop a customized learning plan that suits your individual needs, ensuring that you are not only prepared to face the test but also equipped to excel and reach your highest potential. With my guidance and your commitment, we can achieve outstanding results. Let’s embark on this journey to success together!

Je propose un accompagnement personnalisé en mathématiques, sciences et travail scolaire pour les élèves de 7 à 17 ans. Les cours sont adaptés à l’âge de chaque élève, à son niveau scolaire, à son programme, à son rythme d’apprentissage et à ses besoins individuels.

Cet accompagnement peut servir de soutien scolaire régulier, d’aide aux devoirs, de renforcement des notions fondamentales, d’aide pour surmonter des difficultés spécifiques, de préparation aux contrôles et examens, ou simplement permettre à l’élève de gagner en confiance et en autonomie dans son travail.

Selon l’âge et le niveau scolaire de l’élève, les cours peuvent inclure :

¤ Mathématiques — calcul, fractions, pourcentages, géométrie, algèbre, équations, fonctions, trigonométrie, probabilités, statistiques et résolution de problèmes

¤ Sciences — sciences générales, matière et énergie, notions de base en physique et chimie, biologie, corps humain, environnement, ainsi que d’autres thèmes selon le programme scolaire de l’élève

¤ Aide aux devoirs et soutien scolaire — compréhension des cours, réalisation des exercices, révision des notions difficiles, préparation aux contrôles et développement de méthodes de travail efficaces

Mon approche pédagogique évolue avec l’âge de l’élève. Pour les plus jeunes, je cherche à rendre les mathématiques et les sciences intuitives et intéressantes grâce à des explications claires, des exemples concrets et une approche qui stimule la curiosité. À mesure que l’élève progresse, j’introduis progressivement un raisonnement plus structuré, des méthodes de résolution de problèmes et davantage d’autonomie.

L’objectif n’est pas simplement de terminer les devoirs ou de mémoriser des informations, mais d’aider l’élève à comprendre ce qu’il apprend, à développer son raisonnement, à gagner en confiance et à devenir progressivement plus autonome.

Je suis titulaire d’un doctorat en physique et possède une solide formation académique en mathématiques, physique et sciences expérimentales. J’adapte chaque cours au programme scolaire réel de l’élève plutôt que de suivre un programme fixe.

Les cours peuvent être dispensés en français ou en anglais, avec des explications en arabe lorsque cela peut faciliter la compréhension.
