...gist of biological processes, which occur daily, you can't help but to marvel at its precision. My teaching philosophy is practice makes near-perfect. I believe that with practice and repetition with the right strategies, anybody can master the subjects I will be teaching. Some may need more practice than others.

I believe that the biggest obstacles to learning Math are 1. judgmental social environments and 2. inexperience with the multidimensional nature of math. As such, I foster...

My entire educational background was spent in science and math classes, often it wasn't easy for me, so I understand what it's like to struggle with something and feel like you will never understand. But if you work the problems enough times and never quit you'll get through it. And asking for help is never a bad thing, no one has ever gotten through all of this without help.... Understanding what it is you're doing is...

...is too insignificant to ask while simultaneously encouraging them to be active participants in the sessions so that they can better retain the material we cover and better analyze problems or questions for improved success!

My strengths as a tutor are threefold. I like to focus on exam skills. I also like to build special study methods to help students improve study efficiency. Finally, I like...

My favorite word is "why." And why is that, you may ask? Well, I am subject to a never-ending flow of knowledge because I perpetually wonder why. The search for answers to any question beginning with "why" has taught me everything I know -- and put me in a position to disseminate my knowledge to other people. Tutoring is the best possible way for me to do that.

...my degree at Boston College. I am majoring in Political Science and Philosophy with a minor in Leadership and Management. During my freshman year, I spent 10-12 hours a week tutoring students in public housing in a wide range of subjects. While I can tutor many different subjects, I am best with Math and English because of the amount of experience I have tutoring in these areas. I also have a particular interest in standardized...

...in high school, and Multivariable Calculus at UCR. I understand the concepts, but I can also explain them using applicable examples. Really, math is like a language; you need to know the basics before you get speaking fluently. Math can be difficult, but it can be even more fun once you get it. To me, chemistry is the perfect blend of science and math, which is great since I enjoy both! You can learn from...

Hello! I have over 10 years of experience tutoring and teaching math. I've taught everyone from elementary school students to adults, in subjects ranging from arithmetic to graduate level mathematics.

Whenever helping a student, I make sure to show them every step of the process, working them not only through the technical details but also my thought...

...a whole lot!I have been tutoring chemistry and physics for almost 10 years now (especially chemistry). I have spent a good part of the last 10 years thinking about these subject but also interacting with confused students (and even confused teachers!) and I have developed a good sense of where confusion arises from. I have an undergraduate degree in chemistry and a physics minor to boot. I am especially well versed in physical chemistry. We...

Hi! My name is Andrew; I'm currently studying Biomedical Engineering at Duke University. In my free time, I'm an avid debater, frisbee player, and nap-taker.
