I am currently a 5th year environmental biology major at Cal Poly Pomona. I enjoy learning about all subjects, however I especially enjoy learning about and teaching science and math. I feel that my strengths lie in biology and algebra, but I am also pretty confident with organic chemistry, as well as chemistry labs and biology labs.

Besides helping my friends out when prepare for quizzes and tests, I began tutoring through WyzAnt over the past year and have greatly enjoyed helping my students to learn and find a better understanding of the concepts they are taught about in school. Seeing their grades and their appreciation for their schoolwork improve is greatly rewarding for myself as well as my students. I have always enjoyed learning and I try to make learning a positive experience, especially for those who are discouraged and frustrated.

One of the best parts about learning is understanding concepts and how or why things work the way they do. That being said, I try my best to help my students understand concepts and guide them through their work rather than simply being an answer book.

Nicole's Subjects

Math:
Science:
Elementary Education:
Homeschool:

Algebra 1

I have always greatly enjoyed algebra and always did well in my algebra classes. Even though I did not need to take algebra during college, I still enjoy helping people with algebra or solving basic problems using skills I learned in algebra.

Algebra 2

I have always greatly enjoyed algebra and always did well in my algebra classes. Even though I did not need to take algebra during college, I still enjoy helping people with algebra or solving basic problems using skills I learned in algebra.

Biology

I am a biology major and have been taking biology classes for the past 5 years. I really enjoy the subject, especially mitosis and meiosis, transcription and translation, and cellular and molecular biology, but I do know quite a bit about biological systems and the basics of biology as well.

Geometry

I feel that I understand geometry relatively well, just like most other math subjects, and would be able to help any student that did not understand the subject and teach them how to approach problems in geometrry.

Prealgebra

I have always greatly enjoyed algebra and always did well in my algebra classes. Even though I did not need to take algebra during college, I still enjoy helping people with algebra or solving basic problems using skills I learned in algebra.

Trigonometry

I enjoy trigonometry, however I understand why the subject can frustrate and confuse many people. I would take students in a step by step approach through the subject to help them gain a better understanding of the subject, especially when it comes to using the trigonometric equations to solve problems.

Physical Science

I have a passion for sciences, especially environmental and physical sciences. I am learning more and more about these subjects every day and use the basics of physical sciences to study other subjects, such as ecology, biology, botany, zoology, and environmental sciences.

Ecology

As an environmental biology major, I am very interested in ecology, especially abiotic (environment) and biotic (organisms) live together in a system that is constantly being recycled. This subject fascinates me and I hope to find a career relating to ecology in the future.

Elementary Math

Math has always been one of my favorite subjects and I feel that I enjoy it enough to be able to demonstrate it in a way that helps others understand it, especially if those people get easily frustrated by math or have a hard time understanding how to solve problems.

Elementary Science

As a science major, I feel that I understand the basics of science enough to teach it in an elementary level. I have always enjoyed science and working with children, and I feel that I would do a good job at helping students appreciate and understand science.

Botany

I have taken general botany, evolution of plants, and plant physiology at my college campus. In these courses, I have covered numerous subjects including the cellular structure of plants, photosynthesis (the process as well as C3, C4, and CAM plants), evolution of plants from cyanobacteria up to today, water potentials, osmosis, soil science, the movement of ions into and out of a plant, and plant chemistry and hormones. I have hands-on experience from participating in hikes around Southern California... Read More
