Award-Winning AP Chemistry Tutors in St. Louis, MO

I first began tutoring in high school as a cadet teacher for my AP Chemistry class. I only taught the whole class a few times, but I quickly realized that being on the teacher side of education gives a whole new perspective on the subject matter, and I find it very interesting. I then got my start individually tutoring students in the class, and was able to help them learn the material and succeed. I'm...

...that membership in our program did not require a community service component. I believe it is important to serve other people as an organization, so I helped to reinitiate a tutoring program between our team and a local nearby elementary school. In this program, athletes from our team go to the school for an hour a week to offer help in reading or math. The teachers and athletes all responded positively to the experience and...

...my academic career and I have found it is often an integral part of truly mastering a topic. My tutoring approach takes a hands-on style that lets students work through problems with assistance first, and then on their own. This style allows the student to become confident in his/her knowledge of the material and face new problems with that same confidence. Each student is different and I do my best to quickly learn what works...

...I could understand, I'm unsure that I would have succeeded in any of my introductory science classes. I want to help students who have difficulty learning in a traditional lecture setting by creating problems, critical-thinking strategies, and hands-on learning experiences that are relevant to the student and the material at hand. While both science and math-based classes are my specialty, I also have a strong handle on the ACT. The ACT can be a deciding...

When I work with students, either in groups or...

...recommended to the student seeking the tutoring. My tutoring style is one where I try to make the student become the teacher, for I make sure that the student can explain back to me how to solve a problem and think critically before advancing on to the next problem.

Because of this, I have learned that it is best to teach a given topic by engaging as many senses as possible so that I can cater to the diverse learning styles of my students. I couple this strategy with frequently asking questions as well as...
