I know the great benefits that one on one instruction provides to a student. It is exciting to play such a role in a young person's education. I believe strongly in the power of education. Ideally, tutoring does not just help a student with the academic material in front of...

I am a recent graduate of Smith College with degrees in Engineering Science and Mathematics. This fall, I will be starting a PhD in Electrical Engineering at UC Berkeley.

Outside of school I enjoy hiking and cooking.

...of something for me so clearly before then. All of the sudden Richard Eberhart’s poem about what I previously deemed road kill was not just accessible to me, but it was something I could use to access meaning and history in a whole new way. All simply because of the way it was taught to me. As an undergraduate at Syracuse University I became a tutor with the SU Literacy Corps. I wanted a job...

...and science. From algebra and geometry to chemistry and physics, I loved making sense of the natural world using mathematical expressions and scientific principles. I studied Chemical Engineering at Virginia Tech and also completed minors in Green Engineering and Chemistry, giving me a further insight into the beauty of science as well as the need for new scholars to engineer a better future for the planet. My passion for math and science has continued to...

...Bachelor's degree, I am planning on attending medical school. Outside of academics, I am involved in some on-campus organizations like Camp Kesem and the American Medical Students Association.

Biomedical research is also a passion of mine; I have worked in a handful of labs since high school, from a critical care surgical lab studying treatments for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome to a study on managing diabetes. In my free time, I enjoy reading (especially nonfiction scientific or political books), playing tennis, listening to and playing music (I play piano), and the occasional Netflix marathon.

...have helped several college students through challenging chemistry, physics, and biology courses. After graduating from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor two years early, I have been spending most of my time doing research. My research projects have ranged from molecular biology, biochemistry, and computational biology to applied chemistry, nanomaterials, and algorithm development. I think that I have received enough experience not only to be an expert in these fields, but also confidently share my...

...am a Curriculum Consultant who designs and implements professional development and delivers AIS instruction in reading in elementary grades. Prior to that, I taught middle and high school English for 18 years.

...the ???light bulb??? moment where a challenging topic suddenly makes sense. We can work toward this "lightbulb" moment together by finding out where the student has difficulties, and trying different learning materials to overcome these obstacles. In my spare time, I enjoy hiking in the Adirondacks, walking my dog around Rotterdam, and teaching myself evolutionary biology. I???ve recently learned that I also love to travel, thanks to my long-term relationship with a French exchange student....

I love working with every type of student to help them reach their goals. As an English Ph.D. student, literature remains at the center of my educational journey. Reading and the skills that come with it--comprehension, analysis, critical thinking, empathy--are of utmost importance. I work hard to balance between challenging and encouraging my students. My excitable disposition and energy help to motivate learning and reinforce confidence in their own minds.

I am a dedicated student with a year's worth of tutoring experience in biology. I am passionate about the subject matter and truly enjoy sharing my knowledge with others.

I love the humanities because, with careful study, they build a person from the inside out. Languages, writing and the arts require you to engage fully with their subjects - to produce something unique, something that only you can offer. This, to me, is true learning. It translates into clearer thinking, better grades and greater satisfaction in life.
