"My goal is to find that way, and through understanding why my student is having difficulties, convey the lessons in simple and satisfying means.
I am not an impersonal tutor. I want to become friends with every person I teach. Through experience I've found that this significantly enhances the success of teaching anything. Also who wouldn't mind having another friend?
Though I am well versed in all areas of math, I specialize in teaching various levels of algebra, trigonometry, pre-calculus, and calculus.."

" My tutoring experience began in middle school as a reading helper to children for whom English was a second language (ages 5-10). I continued to tutor throughout middle and high school as a ‘homework helper’ for kids with behavioral and developmental challenges, which required that I teach a range of subjects at various levels with personalized approaches for each student (ages 9-13). While in high school, I completed a challenging AP curriculum and tutored my peers in Biology, Psychology, English, Spanish, and Government at the AP level. As a junior/senior, I also helped prepare students for PSAT/SAT & SAT subject tests as a ...

"Tutoring students can be very simple and sometimes very complicated, but I always look for ways to make analogies to things students feel more comfortable with, so it doesn't seem like I'm speaking a foreign language to them. I get a personal sense of satisfaction when someone stops and goes, "oh, I've never thought of it that way before - now it all makes sense." In addition, often times I feel the education system here is misunderstood and students spend too much time memorizing "steps" to a subject rather than learning it, and inevitably end up failing when they are required to utilize the knowledge in future more advanced work. In my ...

"Likewise, I tailor how I teach to each of my students. Through paying careful attention to how they execute problems and which explanations they prefer, I explore their individual learning style and develop teaching methods that cater to them. This customization has served my students well in my various teaching jobs, from being a Sunday school teaching assistant in middle school to a General Chemistry tutor in high school, and then in college as an Organic Chemistry tutor, teaching assistant, and study group leader. While my formal experience is predominately in chemistry, I have accumulated an equal amount of experience in ...

"While at Williams I was a peer tutor for various subjects including writing and political science. I have also tutored per-calculus, biology, geometry, and SAT Math, reading, and writing. My strengths as a tutor are quickly analyzing student's learning habits and tailoring my approach to best suit their needs and skills. I set reachable goals for every session and clear expectations about my responsibilities and the students responsibilities in preparing for our work together in order to maximize the time we have. I pride myself on being able to explain abstract concepts in practical terms and on being approachable and ...

" I believe building a solid foundation of the basics allows the sciences to become fun and exciting to learn at many levels. Since high school, I've been personally tutoring my friends and peers. In my senior year of high school, I was granted early acceptance to the VCU School of Medicine. The best part of tutoring for me is helping students and adults realize their potential in significantly boosting their standardized testing scores and admission to competitive programs and colleges."

"I hope to spend a few years working before I head to graduate school to pursue a PhD in History of Art. With this advanced degree, I hope to start a career as a curator at a museum.

I would like to spend more time with Europe, after a very fulfilling study abroad experience in college, perhaps for scholarly research on French or Dutch art, and to continue perfecting my French.."
