...life, I have been a witness to the learning capacity of young people: as a high school student in Florida, I volunteered at my Math Club's "Math Lab", an academic peer-tutoring session held every Monday for four years; as a college freshmen I was a tutor for Champion Learning, a company funded by No-Child-Left-Behind in order to aid struggling middle school students with the Common Core; as a full-time instructor, I managed classes for SHSAT...

...student as well as that of a tutor. I tutor Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Geometry, Algebra, Biochemistry, Math, and Nutrition. My favorite subjects to tutor are Biology, Math, and Physics. Biology because I am very interested in the way that life functions, and math and physics because I am interested in the principles of physics--and physics is essentially math. As a relatively recent graduate, I have recently undergone what students are currently going through, and I...

...Economics. Before I switched majors halfway thru my sophomore year, I was a pre-med student. I love still being a college student because all these classes are still fresh in my mind! I've also been tutoring for 3+ years in everything from high school math and science to standardized tests and because of that, I'm confident that you'll experience fast improvement (not to mention a relaxed atmosphere). Outside of tutoring, I'm usually recording music or...

...Dermatology and I look forward to serve my community and help others who may be on the same path I was. I enjoy teaching others and as a student and now a physician, helping other obtain knowledge is very rewarding and it is something I truly enjoy.

Outside of tutoring, I like Notre Dame football, dogs (especially my family's German Shepherd!), yoga, cooking, and reading.

Hi I'm Kara! I graduated from Grinnell College in Iowa in May 2017 where I majored in biological chemistry. During college, I worked as a class mentor for 1st and 2nd-year biology classes. As a mentor, I helped during class time and lab, but I also held sessions twice weekly outside of class to review and teach the material. I really enjoy working with my peers on biology concepts.

I was a tutor in high school when I tutored fellow high school students who were falling behind. Being a great tutor is about listening to and understanding the tutee. Beyond a thorough understanding of the concepts being taught, a great tutor must be able to connect with the person they are teaching in order to best convey the concepts in a way the student will understand.

...each different question type. In addition, I teach pacing and guessing strategies, so that the student will never again leave easier questions unanswered at the end of a section. If there are any gaps in a student's background (general chemistry, physical chemistry, organic chemistry, I help to fill them in. Going forward, each session will include a review of homework and techniques from the previous session, introduction of new content and new strategies, Once all...

...that I find exciting is that you have a great deal of flexibility in solving problems in organic synthesis. The only limitation is your imagination. I have experience in tutoring, as I was a teaching assistant for several years while at graduate school. I found that one of my skills was explaining this exciting field to students in a way that made it less intimidating. This is the reason I decided to become a tutor....

...comes to me for help, I want to make them feel empowered, not stifled or enslaved. I do not believe in leading with a "because I say so" mentality because that doesn't help people find their own way. It doesn't foster independence. It does not teach. My best teachers were those that challenged me to think critically instead of just spoon-feeding the answers to me, and that is what inspires me to be a tutor....

I have spent multiple semesters during and after my undergraduate studies in learning assistant and teaching assistant positions for freshman and sophomore level college lectures and labs. I...

...Chemistry, with experience spanning six years. For the last year and a half, I have been tutoring the MCAT. I scored a 520 - there have been issues adding it to my VT account but I can provide documentation for those who are interested! I love breaking down content and watching students synthesize it in a way that makes sense to them. There's no better feeling than watching that "aha" moment. Together, we can establish...

...I believe this experience with a diverse mix of students has sharpened my skills as a tutor, particularly in the arena of creating interesting and clear examples through which different students can understand complex material. Although I tutor a wide variety of subjects, I most enjoy tutoring elementary and high school level math because I can be creative in designing examples. I truly enjoy teaching; there is a great satisfaction in helping students comprehend new...

I was born and raised in Nigeria. I moved to the United States in 2003. I have BS degree in Biochemistry, that I received in 2002 while in Nigeria and a BA in Economics / Pre-Med from Lehman College. I graduated from Ross University School of Medicine in June 2014. I hope to be an Internist in future. I have tutored extensively for years and volunteered for various non-profit organizations.

I have struggled through different levels of education and have ultimately come through with success. I understand the frustration being unable to grasp concept, not understanding a lecture and feeling lost afterword. I would never want students to feel the same level of frustration.
