...English & American Literature. I have worked as a tutor for over two years with English as a Second Language (ESL) students at the high school level. I tutor Science (Biology, Physics), Mathematics (Algebra, Algebra I), and English. I enjoy tutoring Math and Physics the most because I see it like a puzzle that needs to be solved.

...learning and helping others learn. As a former high school chemistry teacher, I always looking forward to helping students excel in their education, especially in science and writing. Growing up, I struggled to figure out I learned best and fought hard for grades, knowing one day I would want to attend medical school. Through being tutored myself, I was able to gain understanding of how I could tweak my learning styles, leading me to not...

I would do my best to get a feel for the student and what problems specifically the student has been having.... A student becomes an independent learner by developing problem solving skills, and not by being led to the answers.

...their studies. This can be brought about by giving constant and consistent reinforcement of his/her strengths and abilities to grow intellectually and to seek out a higher awareness of details that many mistake for obscure. Finer abilities of discrimination will be the reward of every developing mind with the heightened awarness of what lies beneath each new concept, and this awareness builds cummulatively to the delight of every growing and successful student. As a graduate...

...I might want to get a Masters in Public Health before medical school and was accepted to highly recommended schools such as Tulane in New Orleans, Drexel in Philadelphia, and Mount Sinai in New York City.
