...advanced college-level chemistry and biology. As a science major and experienced tutor, I understand that the sciences pose unique and varied challenges to students. One of my primary goals is to meet students where they are, understand their specific needs, and develop an individualized plan that challenges them and helps them succeed. To this end, I do not follow a specific formula during sessions with my students. Instead, I work with my students to build...

...than having the student adjust to my teaching style as is so unfortunately demanded by teachers. After my third year at Temple University, I have come to love helping others build the foundations for a strong education and enhance their problem solving abilities. I recently was able to have a position as an undergraduate TA in a high level organic chemistry class which developed my skills both as an educator and a student, because the...

Hello! My name is Sagar and I'm a 3rd year chemical engineering major at Texas A&M University. I'm completing a premed track as well. I have a great grasp of basic concepts in different sciences and maths. I hope I'm able to cater to your needs and help you in any subject I can.

...recently been accepted to work as a lecture assistant for the Principles of Biology class at SLU next fall. In that position, I will be expected to help ease the freshman transition into this rigorous college science course by answering questions and helping facilitate discussions in class.

Her personal goal is to help students build a foundation of solid study skills that they can rely on throughout their education so that they have the confidence to perform...

...at supernova shock fronts in the Princeton University Department of Astrophysics, simulating how the turbulent plasmas push protons and ions. I have also worked at the Norfolk State University Department of Engineering, designing, simulating, optimizing, and building light filters for wavelength-division optical-electronic multiplexers. Another field I study is the mathematics of quasicrystals and aperiodic tilings, such as the Penrose tiling of rhombuses. Outside of school I play the trombone and piano, and enjoy hiking and...

...Working together with students and having a good time while seeing steady improvements has proven to provide me great joy. I believe that communication and relationship building is crucial for students to open up about their struggles and also for me to identify problems they don't realize they can improve on, so this is a key aspect of all of my lessons. During my free time, I enjoy playing sports or snacking on desserts while...

...only ask that you know and explain to me what topics you do not know or get so far. I know that every student can learn a subject with a combination of practice and patience, but I insist upon consistent effort and sessions. As an educator I do not support last minute cramming as the primary learning method of content for students as it does not lead to retention of material, mastery of larger themes,...

...growing up, I found myself desperate for tutors and outside mentors to help satiate my desire to learn amidst a host of unmotivated and unqualified teachers. Ever since coming to St. Louis, where I have been fortunate enough to receive a first rate education, I have been committed to tutoring students of all ages because of the significant role tutors have played in my life. They helped me appreciate the importance of education, and for...

...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 the most basic atoms (don't trust them, they make up everything!) to...

My name is Aaron Jackson. I am a student at Columbia University in the City of New York studying biochemistry on the pre-medicine track. I also enjoy meeting new people, exploring world cultures, and developing my sense of self.

...Master's in Education. I absolutely love working with children and have had four years of experience tutoring in multiple subjects including chemistry, geometry, algebra, and English. I worked as a cadet teacher and a tutor during my high school years and was involved in local tutoring programs as well. I am going to be home during the summer months and I am available to tutor almost any time during the week. I can handle anything...

...help any student find their passion in math and science! I especially enjoy teaching cellular biology and botany, as those are my academic specialties. I love working with visual learners especially to help create diagrams and charts that can take information to a new level. Outside of the classroom, I like to hike and tend to my plants in my garden. Let me know if I can be of any service, either online or in...

...outside of my normal hours because I love working with students who want to improve and succeed. Additionally, I have tutored in mathematics in multiple capacities. I was a volunteer in the math help center at UNC and aided students in introductory college algebra and trigonometry. My experiences tutoring and teaching make me a good candidate for this tutoring position, but it's my commitment to the success of my students that make me a great...

...working as a tutor for the past three years in math and science subjects. I believe that its important to make sure my students are learning the information and I'm not completing their homework for them, so when I tutor I generally work step by step through practice problems and then have them try it on their own. I have experience with students off all age levels from 3rd grade to college level. In my...

I'm a medical student currently living in Nebraska. I have always been passionate about science, medicine, and teaching. Tutoring is a great way for me to utilize all three of those passions.

...major in computer science and biology. Early on in high school (Maggie L. Walker Governor's School graduate), I discovered a passion for helping others and I now have had hundreds of hours of tutoring experience in a wide range of subjects including chess, computer programming, math, and SAT prep. In addition to the subjects previously listed, I would also tutor Spanish and chemistry as they are subjects I am comfortable with. Outside of academics, I...

...logical sub-units. First, the underlying equations (or axioms, or vocabulary, or processes) must be understood, preferably on an instinctual level, as it is easier to remember ideas when they make sense at a core level. Then these ideas are applied to the problem, in order to unlock the solution. Generally, when students are having trouble with a problem (or type of problem) there is a non-sequitur somewhere in that process. My job, which is quite...

...sessions. An important question to ask students became "What do you want to get out of the class and our time together?" this way I could align my expectations of students with their goals. After Tulane, I went back home to finish my undergraduate degree at the University of Texas at Dallas. More of my teaching philosophy was developed here with positions as Teaching Assistant in Biochemistry and Supplemental Instruction Leader in Physics at the...
