Gain a Better Understanding of our Earth and Its’ Systems with Earth Science, Geology, and Physical Geography Tutoring

It’s not just about rocks!

As human beings, planet Earth is our home. Studying and understanding earth systems can help us take better care of our planet, and plan and prepare for its’ future.

Through the study of earth science we gain knowledge and understanding of the water, sky, and land of our everyday world.

As part of the Westside Tutoring & Test Services  Earth Science Tutoring Program, students learn about:

  • The Earth’s Atmosphere
  • Oceans and the Earth’s Fresh Water
  • The Earth’s Surface – and yes, this includes rocks and soil
  • How human actions affect the Earth
  • Weather and different Climates
  • Earthquakes and Volcanoes
  • The Solar System
  • The relationship between the Earth, Sun, and Moon
  • Stars, Galaxies, and the Universe

Geology is an important environmental science that also studies the Earth and its’ processes, including the Earth’s surfaces. This too, encompasses the study of minerals, rocks, earthquakes, and volcanoes.

As part of the Westside Tutoring & Test Services  Geology Tutoring Program, students can learn how the study of geology can be an integral part of the study of:

  • Oceanography
  • Climatology
  • Meteorology
  • Ecology
  • Hydrology
  • Environmental Chemistry

Physical Geography studies the Earth’s climate, landscapes, and surface processes, and so much more.

As part of the Westside Tutoring & Test Services  Physical Geography Tutoring Program, students learn about the many diverse elements including:

  • The composition of the Earth’s Atmosphere
  • Wind and Atmospheric Pressure
  • The Seasons
  • Storms and Climatic Disturbances
  • Soils and Erosion
  • Rivers and Streams
  • Different Ecosystems

I hear stories like this every day. I’ve actually had parents tell me stories that brought me to tears: never during the phone call or the in-person meeting with the student and his or her parents but afterwards, when I am alone.While this video is overly dramatic, it’s barely so.I can see what a student is capable of if he or she is allowed to believe in what is possible. I have worked with scores of students with Asperger’s syndrome, ADD/ADHD (ADD is now subsumed within the ADHD “label”), dyslexia, auditory & visual processing disorders, traumatic brain injury (TBI), and more.NOTHING is impossible!And NO ONE should be allowed to define what a child is capable of. I have worked with hundreds of students who have believed the kind of “crap” (sorry) the “teacher/educator” in this video is shoveling, and it is heartrending. Far too many children are made to believe they are “less than!”If you’ve followed my posts here, then you know how I feel about those “merchants of failure.” Please, don’t take this the wrong way: there are many incredibly dedicated and loving educators out there, but it only takes one to destroy a child’s self-esteem. It only takes one “educator” who is more interested in winning a personality conflict with a child than convincing the very same child of what is possible to destroy that young person’s self-image and, quite possibly, his or her future.I love my students—“my kids.” I’ve worked with children who had never earned an A or a B in their lives before working with me. I’ve watched the very same students graduate from high school with honors, graduate from college, and more than a few enter graduate school and move on from there: now living wonderful lives. I’ve worked with students who fought their way back from catastrophic brain injury (TBI) more than once. I’ve worked with an incredible young student who was suffering from a debilitating depression after watching that student’s best friend perish right in front of him. That young man has since graduated from college and is now working as a successful consultant.I could go on for pages, sharing stories about children who’ve overcome obstacles that most teachers thought were impossible to surmount.It doesn’t happen overnight, but it does happen—and it happens time and time again. Young people are willing to do just anything for someone who believes in them, demonstrates love, respect, and kindness for them, and shows them that—no matter what—you won’t quit on them along the way.Children are our most precious resource. We are all human, but if we show “our kids” that we will do everything in our power to help them achieve what they want to achieve, there’s nothing they won’t do to get there!This video is difficult to watch, but it’s well worth the few minutes it takes to do-so.Published on Apr 18, 2021“Based on inspiring true events, this cruel teacher humiliates Logan, an ambitious student with ADHD. When he threatens the boy’s future, Logan’s mother breaks down and pleads with her son… Until an unexpected stranger steps in and does the impossible.”Professor Z440-821-7018 (mobile)PS, please forgive the choppy phrasing & the grammar. I’m still feeling the effects of the second Moderna #COVID19 injection. The proofreading may have suffered. ... See MoreSee Less

Happy Easter to the Westside Tutoring & Testing Services Family!I wrote this blog post several years ago (2015). Six years later and it is still the most popular post on the Westside Tutoring & Testing Services' website. I have had the privilege of working with hundreds of students over the years, and behind every student is an incredible Mom and an equally incredible Dad (caps are intentional).I will share the post about Moms on Mother's Day, complete with an essay I wrote while in the fourth grade at the Roeper School, Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. As you already know, Moms are awesome.Professor Z440-821-7018 (mobile) ... See MoreSee Less

She remained full time taking Physics, and other science and medical classes in hopes of making herself more competitive. She also was so excited to be accepted into a research program which she just loves. She works along side her Professor and a few other Grad school students and OT’s. “With all this being said, I am so very proud to say that her hard work and determination has finally paid off; she has been accepted into the following Occupational Therapy Grad School Programs for this Fall 2021.“Accepted:Kettering, DaytonSt .
