My name is Lisa and I am a certified Biology teacher who is very interested in being your tutor. I have my MS in Biological Sciences from Mississippi College and my BS in Biology from Tuskegee University. While attending these institutions, I completed a variety of biology courses, such as, General Biology, Biodiversity, Environmental Biology, Microbiology, Human Gross Anatomy, Physiology, and Genetics. In these courses I also learned a variety of laboratory techniques including, SDS-PAGE, Cell Culturing, and Protein Labeling. All of which will provide a great foundation for becoming a successful biology teacher while introducing and exposing the students to a wide range of biological studies.
While in college I was a biology tutor to various high school students as a part of my work study, which taught me how to break down information to various skill levels and abilities. During my time as a Research Technician I gained various experience performing laboratory techniques such as, Western Blots, Transformations, Transfections, Restriction Digests, and Cell Culturing.
As a first year Introduction to Biology teacher I played an integral part in collaborating with the other Biology teachers to help create new and different ways of teaching. For example, we taught the process of mitosis by letting the students draw it out with string and draw on paper what they made with the sting. I also believe in utilizing technology to help the students grasp the information. For example, before our chapter tests the students played Jeopardy on the smart board. They enjoyed getting in teams and working together, especially when they knew it meant extra points on their test grades!
