...they will love to learn The second quality is my ability to adapt to any situation given to me. I have had the pleasure of being part of a relief trips to India, and leading two medical relief trips to Ecuador and Peru. During these trips, things can change in a blink of an eye and one must adapt in order to help the people in need. These skills can be translated to tutoring as...

I'm a sophomore at Harvard studying Applied Math, Economics, and Computer Science. I've tutored in a variety of subjects throughout high school and currently work part-time as a Course Assistant for an Introductory Calculus course at Harvard. I especially love tutoring math and making it a more accessible subject for students to learn. Aside from academics, I'm passionate about community service (I'm a director for a student-run homeless shelter!), music, digital design, and baking!

There are so many resources available online that one could get lost in the breadth of information. I'm here to hone in on what makes you want to learn so that we can work together to help accomplish your goals.

Nathan...One of the things I find most rewarding is explaining math. My career goal is to become a college professor, teach math, and do research. I am currently a Senior with a math major at Loyola University Chicago and have been accepted to their masters program. I also like playing tennis, whiffle ball, and writing poetry.

Academics and academia are my passions and it is a goal of mine to extend this passion to as many people as possible.

...help students with courses they are unsure about or need help with to further develop their critical thinking skills and broaden their horizons. Education is crucial for an improved quality of life, and I firmly believe in its significance in making one well-rounded and prosperous. I am excited to tutor and share my knowledge and experience with you. Please let me know if you have any questions or need further information about my teaching philosophy.

...explain it to others. Tutoring has allowed me to better understand my own topics and has given me the ability to teach them in several ways. Beyond tutoring, I also enjoy video games, Ultimate Frisbee, Soccer, Martial Arts, playing piano, and riding my bike around town and through trails. Having many interests is very helpful in college because it allows you to escape when you need to and come back to a problem or assignment...

When I was in high school I did not focus in school as much as I do now. After attending my first class in chemistry as a pre requisite for my major at the time, I fell in love with chemistry and ended switching my major to Biochemistry. I want to be able to help students that are struggling with their academics in order to help the student excel in their future endeavors.

...goal in working with students who are having problems with a particular subject matter is to simplify the material as much as needed so that a student will get to the root of their difficulties and work from there to obtain a strong foundation of the subject material. I am not rigid in my approach. If a particular manner of subject presentation is not helping a student, I will use a different method to facilitate...

...critical for the student to bridge the gap between hearing the language in their head and speaking it out loud. Outside of academia, my interests revolve around making all kinds of things: composing music, cooking Chinese dishes, building sculptures, or anything at all! I find it is extremely therapeutic and important to put under-utilized creative energy to use. I also really enjoy graphic novels and science fiction literature. They are great sources of inspiration for...

...finally, I ask the tutee to solve problems on their own as I supervise. This approach typically works for most students, however, I have learned to tweak my methods as necessary. I believe no student deserves to be given up on, and everyone can break through that initial barrier and excel in the subject. Outside of school and tutoring, I cook, read, hang out with friends, and watch/play basketball, soccer, and football.

Teaching has always been a passion of mine and has continued to be part of my life. From being a tutor to 60+ students at The Broad College of Business at Michigan State University to volunteer work for Tutoring Chicago, where i tutor every week. Varsity Tutors is now my newest platform to continue this interest and I look forward to helping more students reach their goals.
