...with my students, they're more than just my students. I like to get to know you and what your goals are for your current class and academic career in general.

I worked as a volunteer tutor throughout high school and started to tutor professionally during my senior year. Ever since, I have been working as a private tutor, either in tutoring centers or for personal contacts. I have tutored privately and professionally...

...learning than they believe, and that we all have unique styles of learning because we all come from different backgrounds with distinct experiences and values. With that, my goal is to learn as much about my students as possible and tailor curricula to each student's preferred style of learning.

Each of us is born curious about the world around us. Science explains this curiosity, but sometimes the explanations become confusing. I love science and I enjoy making difficult concepts clear and meaningful. When concepts make sense, it is easy to recall them on tests and quizzes! My background includes 24 years of public school science teaching and three years at a private high school. Currently, I teach biology and chemistry as an adjunct professor.

...of Science! I earned a BA in History at Gettysburg College - yes, that Gettysburg, the one in PA - and have since worked or volunteered in several historic museums. My short list would be the USS Constitution Museum, the Eisenhower National Historic Site, and the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum in DC. My longest museum stint, though, was at the Maryland Science Center in Baltimore MD - almost eight years as an educator there,...

...well as writing; thus, these are my favorite to teach. I find that students find algebra and chemistry particularly difficult, and I enjoy utilizing my unique method of teaching to make the subjects more enjoyable, tangible, and meaningful to the student so they can excel in the subject. My teaching philosophy is that not one person is the same, everyone learns differently, and everyone is capable to learn, they just need to be pushed in...

I truly enjoy working closely with students on homework assignments and preparing for exams. I build close relationships with students and encourage them to learn and...

...earn my place in this world as a doctor. In my time in academia, I've come to love the STEM subjects, as you can probably infer from my aspirations. Feel free to come to me with any of the topics that I offer, however especially I love tutoring in psychology, statistics, biology, and I'm pretty dandy with algebra. I am patient yet I expect a lot out of my students because I believe that my...

I tutor a variety of subjects, but I especially love helping students students achieve their artistic goals. Regardless of the subject, I like to make learning fun, so that my students really feel like their education is their own.

Hi, I'm Navina. I am a hard-working, enthusiastic pre-medical undergraduate studying Behavioral Neuroscience. I am interested in working with children and adolescents, helping them to fulfill their potential.

I believe that every student is capable of learning any subject as long as they have the right teacher. I was fortunate enough to grow up in an environment that constantly challenged me and helped me achieve a better education. I hope to be able to pass my knowledge to any child who has the fervor to learn more.

I'm a recent PhD graduate in Bioengineering in the Boston area. My thesis involved nanoparticles and bacterial infections, but as a biomedical engineer I've had training in circuits, mechanics, some programming, chemistry and biology. Tutoring for me is a collaborative effort, following a problem-based learning with questions that will lead the student towards the answer they're looking for while providing a well-rounded understanding of why and how that answer works.

...passionate about helping others. I also got my undergraduate degree at Texas A&M in public health. This is where I discovered my love for tutoring when I was a tutor for the athletics department.

I have been on both sides of being a tutor and tutoring, so I feel I can help students achieve their goals and tap into their fullest potential. I...

For example, I worked with many first-year students as they...

...better grades. Knowing that every student studies in different ways, I am flexible and also take the time to get to know your needs or your child's needs to ensure a personalized tutoring experience that will maximize learning and mastery of the subjects of interest. In my experience, helping students and seeing them succeed after their hard work is very rewarding for both myself, the student and the family. Not only do I seek to...
