...a fantastic math tutor because my career is in science, when people say "but who is going to use math in real life?" I always say ME! I DO! because working in science means understanding data, statistics, mathematical models, and calculus. Why do you need to know what slope intercept form of a linear equation is? Because it lets to do regression models to find out the relationship between variables under different conditions! Tutoring for...

I'm a grad student at DePaul University, finishing my Masters in Physics. I did my undergrad at Loyola University Chicago where I received a degree in biophysics. I'm working towards applying to medical school. I love science and math, and have been tutoring for the past 7 years in math, science and English writing. I'm always excited to help and pass along the knowledge I've gained throughout my schooling to those in need of tutoring.

To foster a positive learning environment conducive to promoting conceptual understanding and strengthening problem solving skills across all levels of mathematics. I graduated from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign with Bachelors of Science in Electrical Engineering. I was on the College of Engineering dean's list twice (top 20% of students) and was an active member of Illini Solar Car, Women In Electrical and Computer Engineering, and IEEE

...real world. Academic skills are imperative for students as they transition from high school to college, so in addition to an understanding of the material, I teach students soft skills such as time management, self-teaching, and discipline. I first became interested in tutoring during study sessions with my fellow peers. The coursework of a premedical student can be very challenging and I found I had a particular aptitude for breaking down complex subjects into smaller understandable...

...students at Brandeis, as well as providing services to underserved countries internationally. In addition, I am also a part of General Tutoring in which I voluntarily tutor a high school sophomore every week in mathematics. Although I am comfortable in tutoring a variety of subjects, I am most interested in Mathematics and Science. From my experience in teaching, I have found that the most successful method for a student's success is additional practice. I believe...

...still attending school, my passion to help others has only grown as I've been in college. I'm currently a double major working towards a B.S. in Healthcare Management and Legal Studies.
