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.

...College. 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,...

...in order to help students succeed even if they were not directly receiving my instruction. Being an experienced teacher and tutor has 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...

...like GEAR UP and Summer Institute for the Gifted and did private tutoring. I started teaching Business Math, Statistics and Calculus, but quickly realized that foundational mathematics was what a 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...

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...

...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 the most improvement in prepping for the Math and Science portions of the exams. I am a firm supporter of learning, believing that it is absolutely important for a better quality of life, and I strive to give all of my students this...

...SAT/ACT and am comfortable tutoring the Math/Science sections of standardized tests. After earning my Bachelor's degree, I plan on becoming a math teacher or full-time tutor to provide extra support for those that may need it, and will eventually go back for my Master's degree. I have slightly different approaches and methods to tutor depending on the age group/grade-level. Although I love making sure the student feels more confident with their subject knowledge, I also...

...does. Throughout my years tutoring all levels of mathematics, I have developed the ability to readily explore several different viewpoints and methods to help students fully grasp the subject matter. 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"...

...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. I try to bring this way of thinking to my students because there are so many different ways to get to the same answer. In my spare time, I like to sew, read and...

...tutor students at different levels in the complexities of German grammar, while supporting their learning efforts through language immersion. I have taken over a dozen college-level German courses, and I am very familiar with AP curriculum exercises and activities. I have excellent research skills, and because of that I have learned how to write and read academic German. Because I have taken German classes with both non-native and heritage speakers, I have an understanding of...

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 economic-based) courses for the past 3 years. Prior to deciding on engineering, I had always wanted to be a math teacher. I have great respect for math and science 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...

...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 an invaluable skill, and I love to teach people how to build persuasive arguments. Outside of academics, I like to play sports field hockey, ice hockey, and lacrosse are my favorites. I also love...

...Math courses. I tutored mainly Calculus, but I also had the opportunity to train and mentor other new tutors. I helped them learn the importance of study skills, learning styles, and communication so they could more effectively help the students they tutored. Math has always been my favorite subject to tutor because I love helping students build their foundation in whatever course they are taking to help them be successful. I have always been fascinated...

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 recently moved to Philadelphia from Boulder Colorado. In my free time I enjoy rock climbing, trail running and playing guitar. I have a degree in mathematics from Oberlin College, in Ohio.... 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...

...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 thorough; I...

...success tutoring in individual sessions, small group formats, and with students of all ages. I now tutor elementary to undergraduate math, and introductory Spanish. I love getting to share what 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. A love of learning has really enriched...

...freshman year of high school, I had officially stepped into the role of a tutor, both in classroom settings and as an individual instructor. Recently, I had the privilege of tutoring a diverse group of students, ages 9 to 16, in subjects such as math, science, English, and SAT preparation. Additionally, I taught Physical Education to K-8 students at an inner-city school in Philadelphia last year. I specialize in tutoring Algebra, SAT preparation, and spoken...
