...and see it in action in real life experiences. The experiences allow better integration of abstract concepts into reality, concreting what you know and leaving you with a desire to find out more. I attended college at Northwest Missouri State University and received a B.S. in ACS-accredited Chemistry in 2008. I have therefore had a lot of chemistry, including organic and p-chem as well as algebra, trig, geometry and multi-variate calculus. While I was a...

...Sciences and Emergency Medicine. Throughout my educational career, I have always loved teaching (both formally and informally), because it helps me learn, all while helping others learn, too. I am most passionate about math and English/grammar, and I think those are very foundational subjects for higher education and potentially your career! I have experience tutoring ages ranging from preschool all the way through college. I am very familiar with both the content and the application...

...and so I enjoy tutoring students to achieve a breakthrough in understanding and accomplishment. As I learn best in a visual and hands-on format this is my teaching style as well. Prior to becoming a teacher I was a business owner and licensed contractor producing rock and gravel and building roads. I am an enthusiastic proponent of Education – my own and others – Education improves our own skills and also increases what we offer...

...dear son went to a charter school that used classical education curriculum. I came to see exactly why 'prep school' is preparation for college academics. Once a person really comes to understand how to write a thesis statement, they'll find there is no end to its usefulness! A big part of my educational philosophy was formed as we homeschooled through fifth grade and our homeschool Latin teacher explained that "ludus"meaning playing games was the ancient...

...beyond simply imparting knowledge; it's about nurturing curiosity, encouraging critical thinking, and instilling a passion for learning. What I find most fulfilling about tutoring is the ability to positively impact a student's life. There's nothing more rewarding than seeing a student grasp a new concept or achieve a long-sought-after goal. Tutoring provides the unique opportunity to form significant bonds with students, supporting them on their academic path, and sharing in the joy of their growing...

...work with Markov chains, random walks, and combinatorial optimization. I tutored briefly in my freshman year of college, in addition to being a homework grader for calculus classes. For the past two summers, I have worked at Epsilon Camp, which is a summer camp for students who are profoundly gifted in mathematics. My experience there inspired me to start tutoring again. I believe that all students learn a little differently, and though schools try their...

One thing I've learned in my years as a student is that very few people learn material in the same way or at the same pace. This is why I love tutoring! A student must be given the tools they need to learn in whichever way is most beneficial for them.

...and using educational techniques that work for this student in particular. I want my relationship with my students to feel like a friendship, and ideally, I want us both to have some fun. I'm a huge arts fanatic, particularly for music; ask me about my favorite albums of last year and I could probably give you a top 200. I've also been a guitarist and lyricist in several rock bands, and I'm currently working on...

...student. Because of this drive to give back, I've already amassed a number of prior experiences in teaching and tutoring. These experiences roughly fall into two major areas- the sciences, and the humanities. In the sciences, I've worked with both peers and younger students in a number of biomedical fields, and I also have experience preparing students for standardized tests like the MCAT. At Rice University, I also worked as a teaching assistant in Cell...

It is a small, private college, so I was able to participate in too many activities to list. I received my undergraduate degree in music education, graduating Magna Cum Laude.

I would love to share my enthusiasm for these courses with the students I tutor, helping them realize their skills and increasing their confidence in the material.

...tutoring biological subjects, but I also really enjoy helping students improve their writing and standardized testing skills. Every student is different, and so I firmly believe that studying and learning habits should be tailored to each person. I make it a goal to help students discover how they learn best!
