TAKING A SCIENCE WITH LAB COURSE THIS SUMMER?
YOU WILL WANT TO MEET THE NEW TEACHING SCIENCE FELLOWS FOR 2018-19!

The Nathan Smith Society is pleased to partner with the highly successful Dartmouth’s Teaching Science Fellows Program in promoting the enjoyment and learning of science.  See message from the Fellows below!

-Nathan Smith Society Executive Committee

******
We are Scott Grubman (Biology) and Julie Becher (Chemistry), both members of the Class of 2018 and this year's Teaching Science Fellows.

We partner with the faculty of introductory biology and chemistry classes to make them more accessible to all students, regardless of science background. We encourage and provide interactive learning opportunities in the context of traditionally lecture-based courses. As recent Dartmouth graduates, we are familiar not only with the most challenging aspects of these courses, but also with student experiences and the college’s support systems.

Our work includes:
-One-on-one teaching
-Research-based study strategies
-Class material
-Exam/assignment feedback
-Facilitating evening and end-of-term review sessions
-Offering student-centered support
-Navigating Dartmouth/new situations
-Pre-health academics
-Holistic approach to student success
-Gathering student feedback
-Integrating academics into the housing communities

This summer we are working with Professor Tom Jack in Biology 13 (Genetics) and Professor Wendy Epps in Chemistry 52 (Organic Chemistry). However, working with specific classes is only one aspect of our job. We meet with all students who are interested in the sciences or currently taking any science class.

If you would like to discuss study strategies, course selection, or just want to stop by to meet us (please do!; our office is 123 Life Sciences Center), OR e-mail one or both of us:

We look forward to meeting you!
Scott & Julie
