About Dr Scott

TEACHING/TUTORING PHILOSOPHY
I am a passionate, engaging educator with over three decades of expertise in university teaching, research and data analysis. My pedagogical approach originates from select exceptional teachers and my own style of working with students. Teaching demands a cogent grasp of course material, as well as the "art" of explaining course content enthusiastically and clearly. I serve students and encourage receptivity to inquiry-driven, proactive learning by providing clear instruction and support.

Teaching and research provide a complementary synergism for illustrating analytical concepts, while exposing students to the challenges and successes of research. I have presented at 22 international academic conferences and one mining industry trade show, and have been awarded 34 research grants and academic scholarships totaling over $560,000 (1994-2018). I use Jamovi (free, open source) in my statistics tutoring for its friendly graphical user interface, analytical power and teaching-centric layout.

My teaching style involves:
- A positive, personalized learning environment;

- Proactive thinking and participation to engage students, while being sensitive to the diverse ways in which students learn (metacognition);

- Discussions and problem solving to emphasize integrative higher learning;

- Contemporary research to inspire students; and,

- Emphasis of hypothesis testing, data analysis, results presentation and interpretation, and critical evaluation of conclusions.

BACKGROUND AND DEMONSTRATED TEACHING/TUTORING EXCELLENCE
- Taught 23 different undergraduate university/college courses for biology and environmental science majors and non-majors (First to Fourth Year) and tutored in high school and college-level biology

- Lectured in graduate statistics courses

- Tutored students in four courses

- Received three university teaching awards

- 19 peer-reviewed publications in scientific journals, including Science

- 94% mean teaching rating from students at six universities in the US and one in Canada. In 2004, my teaching evaluations from students ranked above institutional and US national averages for comparable private universities

Details

RATES RATIONALE
- My rates consider the depth of my teaching/tutoring experience at the university/college and high school levels. Rates may be higher for graduate level tutoring.

- I develop a personalized teaching methodology and learning experience, provide content (supplementing student course material, as needed), curate personalized lesson plans and schedule our weekly tutoring sessions to best meet your learning outcomes.

- Hourly rates also apply to time required for preparation, reviewing/editing student work (upon request), creating lesson plans and communications. I maintain a tutoring log to track hours and payments.

- Tutoring may be provided remotely (Superprof’s “Pencil Spaces” or Google Meet/Classroom ecosystem) or in-person.

- An additional $5 travel fee per session applies to students outside City of Barrie limits.

TUTORING SCHEDULE AND PAYMENT
-A tutoring budget and payment schedule are discussed on an individual basis as part of the FREE first one hour lesson.

- I provide each student with a weekly email invoice summarizing the time invested to prepare for and deliver a given week’s tutoring session(s).

- Payment is required within 24 hours of completing a given week’s tutoring session(s) and before the following week’s preparation.

CANCELLATION POLICY
- If I cancel a tutoring session within 24 hours of when it is scheduled to begin and we are unable to reschedule, your next tutoring session will be free (family emergency or illness excepted). I have never had to cancel a tutoring session for any reason other than illness.

- If a student cancels a tutoring session within 24 hours of when the session is scheduled to begin (and we are unable to reschedule), or does not attend a session, payment for the cancelled/unattended session is still required that week (family emergency or illness excepted).
