    Integrated/Elementary Science, Basic Science, Basic Technology

    Hello! My name is Ikechukwu, a First-Class graduate of the Department of Microbiology, University of Abuja, Nigeria. During my undergraduate studies, I assisted several undergraduate students in some topics that they struggled with, such as Recombinant DNA Technology, Glycolytic cycle, Kreb Cycle, etc. I also assisted my professors during class hours, especially with online classes. I graduated as the Best Male graduating student, winning lots of awards, such as the Scholarship for the Most Outstanding Student, Anglican Students' Fellowship, University of Abuja, Nigeria. Upon graduation, I got a Graduate Teaching and Research Assistant Position at the Department of Microbiology, University of Nigeria, Nsukka, Enugu, Nigeria. For the past 3 years, I have been working as a Science tutor with Ikekams Venture, a learning hub for primary, Secondary and Undergraduate students. I teach Integrated Science topics, such as Animal and Plant Nutrition, Respiratory and Digestive system, Heat, to Grades 7-12 students. I believe that every child has great potentials locked-up within them, and through effective communication, flexibility, patience, love, care, and diligence, these potentials could be unlocked. I possess these, and they have enabled me over the years, to effectively simplify difficult concepts within a short time, for my students.

    About Me

    Hello! I am an experienced Biostatistician and Microbiologist that obtained First Class Honors in both degrees.

    For over 6 years, I have been working with several individuals; students and their parents inclusive, in order to bring out the best in them. I am not only equipped with theoretical skills; I have excellent hands-on practical experiences in several fields of Mathematics (Basic Counting, Arithmetics, Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, Algebra 2, etc), and Science, including, Physics, Chemistry, Basic/integrated Science, Cell Biology, Molecular Biology, Genetics, Genomics, Microbiology, Immunology and Immunochemistry, etc.

    I have the rare ability to simplify complex concepts within a short time. I leave no stone unturn in my quest to see that my students quickly grasp each lesson. I try to relate the topics to real-life events, for quick assimilation. I also assess my students’ level of knowledge before and after every lesson, to make sure there are tremendous improvements.

    I have used numerous learning tools to make my lessons engaging and funful. These tools make each class seem as a physical one. I use digital whiteboards such as Microsoft whiteboard; I also use web conferencing platforms such as Zoom, Google meet, and Skype. I use content-creation tools such as Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, and PowerPoint. Lastly, I use Canva for creating all types of graphics, including infographics.

    In addition to working in the academic setting, I have worked in the Hospital setting as a Medical Laboratory technician; hence, I understand a whole lot about the biological structure and functionality of the human body and those of other organisms. And, these experiences have enabled me to effectively teach for these years. I believe you have great potentials; hence, your success is my priority!

    Viswambher
    Physics / Science / Mathematics tutor - IGCSE / IB MYP and DP
    I am an interactive teacher with 5 years of experience. My teaching style is friendly and open, yet clear and direct. I incorporate a variety of materials, interactive simulations, and conceptual learning whenever possible. My abilities in education are exceptionally strong and continually improving with each tutoring session. Due to the previous situation with Covid, online teaching has become second nature to me, and I am delighted to assist you in your online learning journey. Teaching Methodology: To effectively teach a student, it is not sufficient to merely take notes or review the same material repeatedly. Students need time to connect concepts by approaching subjects from various angles. Making learning interesting in a classroom setting requires practice and skill, and I have been honing these abilities over the years, constantly seeking improvement as both a teacher and a learner myself!
