Award-Winning Calculus Tutors serving Chester County, PA

I studied physics, neuroscience, and mathematics at a top 5 liberal arts college and I am currently studying and conducting medical research at the University of Pennsylvania. I have over 8 years of experience tutoring both kids and adults in math and science.

...While completing my degree, I worked at the local elementary school's after school program. The program was aimed at helping the students improve their math, reading, and social skills. During the fall semester of my Junior year I studied abroad in Vienna, Austria. My four months there were absolutely incredible! It was a phenomenal opportunity for me to improve my skills in German and explore the beautiful continent of Europe. In my spare time, I...

...allowed me to see a wide range of student ability and to develop tools to help each student wherever they may be. My approach to tutoring is to instill confidence in the students I work with. Much like life, confidence in Mathematics is essential. By allowing them to have small victories in our sessions that they can build off of, I give them the tools necessary to be more confident as they move on in...

...lot of my students needed. Some were told that math was hard, others had elementary teachers that were scared of math themselves, and still others did not have good experiences with the content. But, together, we can overcome all that! I believe, and know, that each child is able to learn and be good at math! We need to build their skills and confidence. A patient teacher is needed, as well as a creative approach...

I am looking to help students understand and learn whatever materials they are having trouble with. I have tutored for roughly 2 years while I was in high school. I'm currently in my third year of studying Biomedical Engineering at Drexel University. I would like to aid students in any way possible.... I teach students through examples and problem solving.... I would ask the student to go over what topics he/she needs help on. I would...

...I will receive my Bachelor of Arts in Biological Sciences and Psychology with a minor in French. Since graduation from high school, I have tutored children from various education systems as a part of REACH and college students by being an Undergraduate Teaching Assistant. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Biology, Chemistry, Math, and Physics. In my experience helping struggling students prepare for Standardized Tests, I always see...

...AP Calculus 1, Honors Chemistry and graduated with a 4.0 GPA. So far in college, I have completed General Chemistry 1, 2, both Lab courses, Calculus 1-3, Linear Algebra, Differential Equations, and Numerical Analysis and have kept a 3.5 GPA so far. Although I haven't taken certain math/science courses since high school, all of the upper-level math courses I am currently enrolled in consistently incorporate the basics, so I haven't lost touch. I am always...

...I can present the material in many different ways until we find an approach that works and makes the material easy to understand. Nothing gives me a greater thrill than the look of relief on a student's face when they actually start to "get it" and realize that it is not as difficult as was previously believed. I have a Master of Science degree in Math, over three years' experience as an actuary, and am...

...in communications concentrating in science and technical writing. I enjoy activities that allow me to grow as well as help others, which is why I love tutoring math and French. Having family in France, tutoring French helps me practice for when I visit as well as create a foundation and better understanding for my students. I like to approach everything in life with multiple perspectives because it is the best way to grow and understand....

...In these topic areas I am capable of giving clear explanations of complex concepts in simple language. Regardless of the topic, my guiding goal is to help students identify and attain their academic aspirations. In my free time, I love to hike and travel and enjoy being outdoors in nature, taking in the beautiful scenery of parks and woods. I enjoy reading German and English books. I like classical music and enjoy both listening to...

I am a current sophomore at Cornell University pursuing a B.S. in Biomedical Engineering. I have done extensive coursework in biology, physics, chemistry, math, and lab sciences. I love applying engineering problem-solving skills to the biological sciences. For the past year, I have been a teaching assistant for introductory biology classes. In my free time, I participate in cancer immunotherapy research which focuses on melanoma.

...and I have always wanted to spread that to my peers and those around me. As a student, learning material can often seem overwhelming, I understand that problem greatly, but that should not stop anyone from learning new things when sometimes all it might take is a new perspective. It is my goal, to show students the better sides of math and engineering courses as opposed to the one-sided view of the classroom. My philosophy...

...tutor a broad range of subjects, including math, sciences, writing, and SAT prep. I especially enjoy teaching chemistry and math, because there are so many ways to approach each problem. As a tutor, I try to understand each student's thought process and help them find the approach that works best for them. I believe education is empowering, and I want to help every student feel informed and confident. I also think that clear communication is...

I have always been fascinated by the way different topics in Math are intertwined. In my spare time, I love to do all types of crafts, especially knitting. I also enjoy baking decorative cakes and...

I am dedicated to helping both struggling and thriving students excel in the subject in question. While I will work closely with my tutees, I will never just tell them how to answer a problem. Making sure the student is able to solve the problem on his own and understand why this method of solution works is how the subjects can be mastered.

Currently, I am a Bioengineering graduate student. I have a passion and talent for teaching complex concepts to students with different learning styles and needs. Throughout my undergraduate university experience, where I graduated with a 4.0, I tutored peers in subjects ranging from Multivariable Calculus, Python, Organic Chemistry, Biology, and Statistics. I am available Monday - Saturday during the summer to tutor both K-12 students and college in STEM subjects, English, and writing.

I believe in using real-life applications and hands-on learning tools to increase the student's intuitive mastery of concepts.... I would assess the student's strong points and their weak links. I would try to get a good idea of what they knew, and then what...

...in St. Louis (WashU) studying Biomedical Engineering on a Pre-Medical track. I tutor mostly math-related subjects, such as Calculus and Linear Algebra. I push hard in my personal work to gain a strong, conceptual backing for almost all subjects, and am able to help others efficiently with this. Understanding material conceptually, rather than analytically, is vital to being able to think and apply knowledge. This is my learning and teaching philosophy. I am patient and...

...I know about the subjects I tutor. I think people learn best when they feel positively about their relationship with education, so I focus heavily on adapting how I teach to fit each student's academic and personal needs.
