About Duane

The school year is kicking off!

Does anyone need help?

My name is Duane and I am currently a PhD student in biological engineering at ASU and I am looking to take on a few new students at the high school and college levels in order to earn a little extra money. I have worked in the laboratory sciences for 10+ years and have industry experience as well (humanitarian aid, wastewater treatment, potable water recovery, agriculture, waste recycling, etc.).

I work part-time as a private tutor and executive functioning skills coach, and have been doing so for 5+ years.

I have worked previously at OnTrack Tutoring (Non-competes have expired) and worked with neurotypical and neurodivergent students.

My tutoring style is 1-on-1 and if the student is in High School, then a parent must be present at all times during sessions. Considering the pandemic, I am primarily working virtually at the moment and can work with students via Google Teams/Hangouts, Zoom, and Skype - however, in-person is possible with safety precautions. My style focuses on helping the student develop their own skills in order to be successful. My goal is to make myself obsolete - I want to work with the student until they have learned to be successful on their own.

I have experience working with people who are ADHD (all 3 types), autism spectrum, & other developmental delays.

I am vaccinated, practice social distancing, wear masks, & sanitize everything.

If you would like to reach out, please send an email and we can set-up a 15-30 minute video chat to discuss needs and goals and determine if I can help you or your child succeed.

My CV (or resume) is available to review when you email me, so that you can have a list of my qualifications.

The subjects and skills that I tutor consist of the following:

Math:

Algebra I and II

Geometry

Trigonometry

Pre-Calculus

Statistics

Science:

General Biology

Microbiology

Ecology

Biophysics

Bacteriology

Synthetic Biology

General Chemistry

Environmental Chemistry

Organic Chemistry

Introductory Biochemistry

Introductory Physics

Experimental Design

and more

Executive Functioning Skills and Techniques:

Organization

Planning and Prioritization

Task Initiation and Self-Monitoring

Metacognitive Consideration and Control

and more

Please feel free to reach out!

I enjoy helping students like myself find success in methods and protocols that work for them. I am a PhD student with ADHD & Autism and I use my experiences as I am helping students determine learning methods that work for them and take their ADHD/Autism into account. This involves executive function techniques & practice, along with planning, follow-up, and plan-editing. My techniques are interdisciplinary and pull from a multitude of teaching styles to better help students learn concepts and applications. Right before COVID hit I was able to help bring a student from a failing grade to an high-passing grade, which allowed him to get into his university of choice. I still keep in touchwith this student and he still utilizes what I worked with him on in order to be successful in college.

I began teaching in a microbiology laboratory, managing & monitoring approximately 20 students, in 2012. I worked with students on conceptual understanding, applied mathematics, applied techniques, and safety. Students learned the basics about microorganisms. From that point, I worked in teaching and private tutoring on the side and as a part of my graduate degree progress. I have taken a multitude of courses in scientific education and mathe education, specifically geared towards applications in order to foster understanding. I have mentored undergraduates and graduates in my laboratory and continue to do so.

About the lesson

My work with students is built about rendering my role obsolete - if I am doing my job right, then I should not be needed by the end of the semester. Please note, that all students are different and "by the end of the semester" is not a guarantee, some students may require more or less help. I work with individuals on a multitude of levels to develop & implement good study skills. We set goals & discusss how to best teach them & keep them on track.

High School Students - STEM Coursework

Undergraduate Students - Chemistry, Biology, & Math

Graduate Students - High Level Complex Concepts

Marginalized Students - LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, Disabled, & Low-Income.

Vocational School Students - Agriculture & Laboratory

Disabled & Special-Needs Students - ADHD, Autism, & Bipolar Disorder

Your instructor needs to be multidisciplinary - science doesn't exist in a vacuum.

Math is the basis of physics, physics is the basis of chemistry, chemistry is the basis of biology, and biology is how we exist in the world & environment.

A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
What am I struggling with?
Is it a topic or concept? Or is it the application of said topic?
Is my struggle with executive function?
