...while tutoring. I began causally tutoring family friends in high school, and over the years I've worked with students of varied backgrounds -- from those re-taking failed classes to those applying to (and being accepted at) the best universities. I'm proud to say that I've helped all my students reach their goals, frequently pushing them to exceed their expectations. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time outdoors and exploring all that Arizona has to...

I graduated with a degree in biology (genetics, cell development) and Spanish linguistics and have taken the MCAT twice. I am certified to teach ESL students.

I make an active effort to incorporate this into my tutoring style.

...of my favorite subjects to tutor would have to be MCAT Biological sciences and Life Sciences. These subjects are near and dear to me as I recently (2011) took the MCAT exam for entrance into medical school and my undergraduate major was in Life Sciences. I enjoy engaging with students and helping to lead them to the correct answer and understanding of concepts through a question and answer process. Outside of school I love to...

...Instructional Assistant, a science teacher, and, most recently, a marine biologist. I have been tutoring since 2011 (before I graduated high school), and I honestly love it. I think that students see success with me because I can take complex ideas and break them down into more manageable chunks, and demonstrate that process for them to empower them in the future. I believe that all people have a right to a high-quality education, and I...

...SI leader helped me grow my leadership and tutoring skills, as well as my love of teaching. SI leaders use the challenges posed by high-risk/high-failure courses to guide undergraduates to discover, not just "what to learn," but also "how to learn." Knowing how to learn and how to obtain information is a skill demonstrated by multiple research studies to predict success in advanced classwork as well as in post-academic careers. I prepared the session plans...

...in peer tutoring programs, and provided one-on-one assistance to fellow students struggling with challenging subjects. These experiences have reinforced my belief that the best way to learn is by teaching others, and I have found immense satisfaction in seeing my peers succeed through our collaborative efforts. One of the key strengths I bring to a tutoring position is my ability to personalize my teaching approach to meet the unique needs of each student. I understand...

Specialized topics in environmental biotechnology and environmental engineering. My favorite topics to tutor are the ones that involve physical sciences and biological sciences. Environmental Engineering is an excellent area of example...

...the freshmen level. The second year I moved on to teach both Biology, and Anatomy & Physiology. I have a passion for helping students succeed and always want to know what learning style is best for each student so I can plan lessons that are beneficial. My favorite subject over all is anything Biology related. Within biology I am passionate about anything relating to the medical field. My current plan is to return to school...

...New Zealand, to the giant moose in Montana, they each play a role in their selected environment. Much like these animals, humans play a part in preserving them and education is a great starting point. I believe that with my near half-century of life experience, my passion for the environment, and my knowledge of Natural Resource I can enhance the view and perception on how others can play a role in protecting for years to...

...by far organic chemistry. When I was little, I loved playing chess and the puzzle that always came with it. In organic chemistry, I saw the whole subject as one giant puzzle. I used to love to solve all these puzzles that it had to offer, and it quickly became my favorite class. With math, I like it for the same reason. Math always came easy to me. This was the subject I tutored that...

...specialty. I am fascinated with the building blocks of matter and love learning and teaching about them. If you need help with biology, chemistry, physics, organic chemistry, physiology, or microbiology, I can be especially helpful. What about standardized tests? Taking the ACT, SAT, or AP tests soon?

While graduating summa cum laude with a degree in Biological Sciences, I've been fortunate to gain significant experience in tutoring ALL LEVELS of students from elementary school to undergraduate. Through these endeavors, I've grown incredibly passionate about mentoring aspiring college/medical students and teaching them the essentials of crafting a competitive application (personal statement/resume/extracurriculars). My favorite aspect of tutoring is fostering a 1-on-1 connection with my students and truly adapting to their specific needs, goals,...

...experience as a professional copy editor. My focus when tutoring is student understanding. I believe academic goals are more readily achievable when concepts are understood, rather than formulas memorized. When helping students prepare for standardized tests I focus on taking practice exams and working with students on the areas they need the most help. Outside of school I enjoy hiking, gardening, reading, and cooking. I like to explore new ways of doing things and being...

...of these subjects fascinating. I like to help students explore connections between different concepts in order to understand the bigger picture, but at the same time, I also like to provide students with problem-solving strategies and tips on how to make sense of smaller details. Additionally, understanding applications of concepts also helps me understand the material better, and this approach may also work for many students. As a current research assistant in an immunobiology lab,...
