ACT Science

This exam will test your aptitude for taking college courses and will give schools an idea of your educational development. Science questions on this test can be tricky. I can help with the content of the test, i.e. the actual science as well as the way a student answers a question by teaching test-taking strategies.

algebra 1

Algebra is one of my favorite subjects in school. It was useful to me in college and in my chemistry classes. Algebra can be fun and entertaining. I can help you with your homework.

biochemistry

biology

Biology covers many areas of knowledge. I am especially knowledgeable with anatomy/physiology, cell biology, microbiology, and genetics. My background in biochemistry helps tremendously because it is looking at biology from the molecular standpoint, increasing my understanding of how to teach biology and how to help someone with that subject.

ESL/ESOL

ESL stands for "English as a Second Language". ESOL stands for "English for Speakers of Other Languages". Language learners often make mistakes of syntax and pronunciation. It is believed that these errors are the result of their mother tongue. For example, a non-native speaker might inappropriately map sentence structure from his first language onto the second. Pronouncing certain "foreign sounds" might be harder for the student. Confusing items of vocabulary known as false friends may be a challenge as well. Idiomatic expressions are also a formidable obstacle for most non-native speakers. Idioms are expressions of ideas made in a unique way in a particular tongue. Translating an idiom into a speaker's first language would mean nothing or perhaps even be non-sense. These expressions must be learned. Their meanings are mostly understood by a student when he or she thinks in the second language like his or her first language. My first language is French and my second language is English, but I am bilingual so I think in both languages. I can help anyone with problems learning English as I worked out my own difficulties in English before I became bilingual.

French

French is widely spoken throughout the world: in France (of course), in Canada, Polynesia, certain countries in Africa, Haiti, and a few other islands near the Caribbeans. You need help for traveling or guidance for school work? I can help with speaking, writing, reading, and comprehension.

GED

I have passed a French high school diploma and I also passed a GED test in the US so that I could easily attend college in the US. I am knowledgeable in all areas of the GED test as I have a very broad educational background. My favorites are science, writing, reading, and algebra. I would be glad to help anyone attain the worthy goal of passing the GED test.

organic chemistry

prealgebra

Pre-algebra teaches necessary concepts and reasoning preparing the student for algebra. I can show clearly how to solve basic problems that will lead the student to be more confident for taking algebra.

TOEFL

The TOEFL test is the most widely known English proficiency test in the world. It prepares you to demonstrate to higher education institutions, learning programs, scholarship institutions and others that you are capable of handling university work given in English. You can take the internet-based test or the paper-based test. Most test takers take the internet-based tests. Keep in mind that the strategy used to take the internet test versus the paper-based test is different. Help is given on the test-taking strategy and on the English language difficulties you are facing.
