Award-Winning Biochemistry Tutors serving Yonkers, NY

...to New York City to begin my Master's Degree in Genetic Counseling at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. While at Connecticut College I served as a peer tutor in the Biological Sciences department in both group and one-on-one settings. In my senior year, I served as the Teaching Assistant for our Genetics course. My roles as a TA included attending class meetings and facilitating discussion and problem solving sessions. I also hosted...

...Pre-Calculus, Calculus, Algebra, Trigonometry, Statics, Dynamics and Physics (since I work in the advanced physics lab my knowledge and experience is on the graduate level). I spent my teenage years flying airplanes and gliders, which showed me that I have a huge passion for STEM courses. I proudly maintain 4.0 GPA while working in the research lab, flying airplanes on the weekend, and still making time for my morning yoga and meditation. When tutoring, I...

...Lauren! I am a 4th year medical student at NYITCOM and will be graduating this May. I have a passion for teaching/tutoring with 10 years experience! I have tutored one-on-one and taught classes up to 30 students. I love helping students understand the basics and watch them develop the skills to conquer complex topics independently. By teaching students how to think critically, I have seen how tutoring helps expand horizons. I look forward to working...

...chemistry minor. I have plans on attending medical school in the upcoming years but currently I am taking a gap year to explore other interests. As a student I was never the most talented student, but I achieved high success through relentless effort and developing unique strategies for success in academics. I understand how foreign complex concepts may seem in classes because I have been the confused student in the class before. At the University...

...I was young, she simply decided that she was 'bad at technology' and it stuck. Eventually, my sister and I sat her down and gave her instructions on how to access the internet. The next day, we taught her how to use Microsoft word. We made sure that she focused on each skill alone and ignored everything else that seemed confusing. Two weeks later, she got the hang of it. I tutor by presenting the...

...need to get to the answer, which sometimes involves responding to questions with questions. That way, they will understand what they need to think about as they make their way to the answer. A good teacher is a facilitator: a guide, not a dictator. When someone 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...

I graduated college Summa Cum Laude with a double major in Anthropology and Neuroscience. My favorite subject is actually a combination of the two, studying how evolution has shaped human culture, brain, and behavior. I've been a tutor for various subjects and age groups with a particular interest in mathematics. I really enjoy the sciences, but I also find math to be incredibly relaxing and rewarding once you get the grasp of the concept.

...and chemistry. Apart from Environmental Engineering, I am interested in Aerospace Engineering and Architecture, and I plan to pursue a minor in both of these fields. Outside of school, I hike and play golf for fun, but I also tutor several students. In high school, I worked at Kumon Learning Center and assisted students with their math and reading coursework. I am also currently a tutor for the STEP program at Cornell, where I teach...

I believe that anyone can learn anything they set their mind to. Like Eisenstein said, "genius is 99 percent hard work". As long someone is motivated, they can figure something out, and I'm here to help them along the way!

...is exposing students to new fields and instilling the confidence in them to explore subjects areas that they may not have considered to be their strength. Patience is one of my key attributes as an individual, and this translates perfectly to my role as a tutor. I will not give my students the answers to their questions right away. Instead, I will guide them along the right path so they can arrive at the correct...

...to inspire all of my students to continue their pursuit of knowledge, regardless of grade level. The process of learning is fun, but also the multitude of things out there to learn are incredible. I love looking at things like bridges and airplanes and thinking about the brilliant minds who came up with a way to cross expansive rivers and oceans. I also am constantly amazed by the human body and what it accomplishes every...

...tutoring junior high and high school students in math and science as a freshman in high school, and have continued refining these skills throughout my time in college. I completed the MCAT in March 2017, and still vividly remember the study strategies that resulted in a successful score. My high school students have had great success on the SAT Subject Test in Biology, often scoring in the high 700s on their first attempt. I am...

My name is Ri and I want to help you learn! I am passionate about tutoring because it is a way for me to teach the subjects I love, and understand, to other people.

I recently graduated from college with a degree in engineering. Although it was taxing at times, an education in engineering allows students to draw connections between the theoretical realm of math or science with the physical world. I hope to create this context for the students that I tutor. Also, while I love learning and teaching subjects in math and science, I have a passion for language as well. ... I want learning to be fun!...

I was introduced to tutoring through a love of helping my friends succeed, and finding wonderful friends that helped me succeed. The feeling of understanding something is amazing, and the feeling of helping someone understand something is rewarding. Above all, I encourage critical thinking in everything I teach. Memorizing formulas and facts is good for short-term learning, but to truly understand a concept it is necessary to stimulate our minds to see patterns and connections.

...exam, which requires me to master all of the information covered in the above listed classes. Working with so many students from different backgrounds and learning styles was challenging but rewarding. I have garnered an arsenal of teaching techniques which allows me to individualize the way I present course material to each of my students. I find that life science classes are my favorite to teach because their applicability to the real world makes for...

I am a young professional currently en route to medical school. I graduated from college in the spring of 2016 and have since been doing research in New York and NYU Langone Medical Center, where I work in conjuction with both the Department of Pathology and the Cancer Center. I will be starting medical school in the fall of 2018 and plan to continue tutoring throughout the next four years.

...where I developed analytical and interpersonal skills that could prepare me for a wide range of career pursuits. After nearly 2 years in consulting I continued my studies at New York University, pursuing pre-medical courses for entry into medical school. I have completed coursework in General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Biology, and Physics. I bring patience, diligence, enthusiasm, and a strong attention to detail to each and every tutoring experience. In addition to excelling at my...

...rewarded. Subjects that I am comfortable tutoring include biology, chemistry, biochemistry, earth science, physics, anatomy and physiology, cell biology and zoology. My favorite subjects are biology and physics. I feel that physics should be the foundation subject in science because it explains the abstract concept of energy best and physics labs remarkably illustrate how mathematics is applied in science. Thus, the traditional course sequence in high school of biology–chemistry-physics should be reversed to physics-chemistry-biology. In...
