Award Winning Academic Tutoring & Test Prep

I've worked with children of all ages, from elementary school to high school through jobs and volunteering. I'm very responsible and always try to connect with my students. I like to teach by asking questions so that the process is more interactive and students understand the material better.

I currently work as a general chemistry laboratory mentor. My duties include office hours where students who just finished lab come to complete their lab reports and ask questions. I take my tutoring/mentoring job very seriously. Because there is a new lab every week, I attend the lab lecture that students attend, read through the lab, finish the pre-lab, lab report and additional exercises ahead of time, check the answers, and go to weekly mentor meetings to discuss potential questions students may have. Thus, I put in a lot of time outside office hours to make sure that I understand the material completely so that I can explain it in the clearest way possible. In addition to being a chemistry lab mentor, I have volunteered at Lydia's House, an abused women and children shelter for the past two years as a tutor for elementary to high school kids. I would help them with homework, test preparation, read with them or play games with them. Through this experience, I've learned how to interact with and teach kids from a variety of backgrounds.
