...in Chemical Engineering and graduated Magna Cum Laude. Over the past several years, I have worked with students from diverse backgrounds and experiences tutoring thermodynamics (my personal favorite), chemistry, and math.

I tend to push my students to understand conceptual topics, as opposed to rote or algorithmic learning. In my free...

...is in Technology and Engineering Education. My programs well prepared me in the sciences and mathematics with many classes, labs, and tutoring opportunities. My Master's program is a rare field and has drastically reshaped the way I teach. For my thesis, I was able to study the effects of the engineering design process on students abilities to problem solve. Since then, I have focused my instruction not only on the content, but also on teaching...

I am a sophomore at Rice University and intending to major in Bioengineering with a minor in Global Health Technologies. I am also planning on going to med school. My favorite subject to teach is math and editing essays is forte of mine as well. I do my very best to help all of my students. ... I'd start off by asking what the student is interested in, in both subject and extracurricular. Then, I'd ask...

Inspiring young minds today, getting great leaders tomorrow. My style of teaching depends on how the student learns. From my experiences teaching at CSU, most people learn from concrete explanations and examples. But, there are a few who learn verbally and/or by consistently writing. I try to find that learning style and counter it with the proper teaching style.... Get to know my student and their learning style.... By showing them resources to use if no...

...one interactions with students. Whether it is on the field or in the classroom, I love the feeling when students have that "Ah ha!" moment, and finally get a difficult concept. I have experience with teaching all different types of learners, and students with various learning disabilities. I love to differentiate instruction in order to fit each student's unique learning style. I love tutoring science, particularly biology and chemistry because these subjects require a unique...

I graduated from the University of Maryland, College Park with a PhD in Physical Chemistry. In tutoring I focus mostly on chemistry and math, the two subjects I am most passionate about. Helping students realize that these subjects are fun is what motivates me. In my spare time I enjoy running, working out, and watching any sports.

...teachers, and education is very important to me as a person. Communication and understanding, especially in the sciences is as important as it is sometimes difficult. Ultimately, I think that all students have their lives enriched by truly understanding the materials in all subjects, even ones that don't at first appear to be the ones that attract them. I hope that, by tutoring, I can help bring this joy to a few people who might...

I recently graduated from Kent State University with a Bachelor of Science in Biology Pre-Medicine.

I look forward to working with students of all ages and expanding my subject areas to topics outside the sciences, such as mathematics and test preparation (ACT, MCAT, et al). I firmly believe education is the key to success and am fortunate to have the opportunity to help students achieve their academic goals. Beyond tutoring, I enjoy running, going...

...been a motivated and committed student for the past 15+ years and I'm excited to bring my knowledge, enthusiasm, and passion for learning and teaching to all of my tutoring sessions. Although I majored in Biology at Duke, I got a minor in Classical Studies - or ancient Greece and Rome - so I have a pretty diverse educational background. In addition to my studies in college, I was DUMB (a proud member of the...

...in engineering provides a strong base in mathematics (from algebra through calculus), while my interest in medicine creates plenty of knowledge in science courses. I have experience in nearly every science course at the collegiate level, including labs. Outside of the classroom, I enjoy working out in a local CrossFit gym and cycling outdoors. I have recently (pre-COVID) travelled to Italy and I can speak Hungarian fluently. I look forward to being able to assist...

...favorite subjects to tutor are biology and math. My teaching philosophy is one of guided practice. I find that the most effective way to teach is to give a step by step explanation, and have the student answer conceptual questions, with the ultimate intent of the student replicating the process on their own. To me, the most fulfilling moment of tutoring is reaching the "light bulb moment" that moment when everything clicks for the student,...

I thoroughly enjoy helping students and being a part of their success. I have 3 years of experience tutoring various math and science subjects and connect well with students.

I'm a hands-on tutor who loves helping students really "get" the concepts, but I know there's no better way to learn than by diving into real-world examples. I like to keep things fun and practical, making sure we connect the dots between the lessons and how they actually work in everyday life!

...interests, I live for soccer! Last winter, I went to London and saw my favorite team Arsenal play in their beautiful Emirates stadium. I'm starting to get back into my running and completed a marathon in Charleston in 2015 - I think this shows my perseverance and commitment to goals I set for myself.
