Sciences Tutoring
Elementary School Sciences - elementary science programs are taught through a process or “hands on” approach. It emphasizes a laboratory method of instruction that focuses on ways of developing basic skills in the processes of science. The methodology includes skills, centering on observing, classifying, measuring and predicting, as well as others required for scientific investigations and ways of processing information.
Middle School Sciences - middle school science is organized into three primary courses: Earth/Space Science, Life Science, and Physical Science. Nature of Science can also be supplemented. The best middle school programs get students interested in investigating the world around them. As students learn facts and vocabulary, they develop the ability to ask scientific questions, plan experiments to answer these questions, and develop reasonable explanations based on their observations.
High School Sciences - the high school science curriculum is designed to help students prepare for college study as they pursue careers in technology, medicine, engineering, manufacturing, and other related science fields. Understanding science is necessary in the modern world. It is a key part of understanding breaking news, interacting with our planet, choosing and using technology, and even making healthcare decisions. Therefore, high school science prepares students for their adult life regardless of the career path they choose.
- Biology - introduces the concepts of life on Earth and its interactions with both living and nonliving matter. Students investigate living things through the scientific process. Many types of organisms will be considered, including animals, plants, viruses, bacteria, and protists. Students will also consider the interdependence of many different kinds of life within one ecosystem.
- Earth/Space Science - teaches students about the Earth, weather, oceans, the solar system, and space exploration. Students will gain an overall awareness of the Earth's structure, components, and how the different elements that make up our planet are interrelated with those found in the universe.
- Chemistry - students explore the composition of matter and the physical and chemical changes that can occur to matter. Students explore chemistry by studying the atom, the combination of atoms in compounds, and interactions between matter and energy.
- Physics - investigates matter and energy and how they interact. Students use mathematics to identify motion and its relation to force and momentum. Some other topics include energy, rotational mechanics, temperature and heat, thermodynamics, and vibrations and waves.
- Geology/Environmental Sciences - involves studying the materials that make up the Earth, the features and structures found on Earth as well as the processes that act upon them. Geology also deals with the study of the history of all life that's ever lived on or is living on the earth now. Studying how life and our planet have changed over time is an important part of geology.
- Anatomy & Physiology - explore the intricate and sophisticated relationship between structure and function in the human body. Topics include homeostasis, anatomical and physiological disorders, medical diagnosis and treatment, modern and past imaging techniques, biochemistry, cytology, histology, and survey of the remarkable array of body systems that comprise the human body.
University Level Sciences - specified fields of scientific focus often involves critical thinking, problem solving, quantitative and information literacy, communication and presentation skills, and the capacity to work in teams - and will develop knowledge and skills in these varied disciplines.
