Award-Winning Chemistry Tutors in Bergen County, NJ

...that the tutee understands the material. I am patient when it comes to teaching, as every student has their own pace of study, and will alter my methods in order to meet their pace. I would then create problems that would test their knowledge on the subject before moving onto the next. The success of my student is very important to me, and I will do my best to help them achieve their best.

...minoring in Healthcare Economics and Policy. My favorite subjects in school are Chemistry, Biology, and Math, but I also enjoy the process of writing and editing thought provoking essays. During high school, I spent time tutoring for the National Honor Society. My approach to tutoring is to teach the concepts in a simplistic manner and reinforcing the concepts while adding difficulty through effective practice problems. In my free time, I have recently found myself reading,...

...of a subject, the more complicated features can never be truly internalized. I have always enjoyed explaining concepts to other people, and I find it works best when I relate the subject to a personal interest of the student. The most rewarding aspect of teaching is watching a student attack a problem in a step-by-step manner and explain the significance of each step. Starting from the bottom-up is an approach I have applied through my...

...1 & 2, Geometry, Pre-Calculus and Calculus. However, chemistry was my first love and it remains my favorite subject to teach. I have always loved science. But what I enjoy most is helping young people learn. I believe what I do best is to help students understand the physical world that surrounds them. When I teach I focus on short lessons followed by "hands-on" student activities to reinforce the lesson. When I'm not teaching I...

I have taught intellectual property law for the past two years and SAT preparation for the past 10 years. I am a great tutor because not only are my fundamental verbal and quantitative skills strong, but I am able to communicate my reasoning and problem solving skills quickly and clearly.... My teaching philosophy is to help empower students to stay calm and use what information they know to arrive at the correct answers on tests through...

...senior year of high school and have always found it to be fun, engaging and rewarding. I have extensive experience with test prep (primarily SAT and LSAT), but have tutored all ages in a variety of subjects including chemistry, physics, trig, history, English, Spanish, and many others. Looking forward to meeting new students and helping as much as I can! In the rest of my life, I love to hike, I listen to a ton...

...biology, I've worked as an educator at an aquarium and also at a Pre-K. I hope to spread the wonders of science and the natural world to those I encounter in the future, whether that be as a teacher, outdoor educator, or writer. I'm passionate about writing stories, creating and listening to music, and finding the beauty in everyday interactions. I hope to inspire students about the course material, which I believe will lead to...

...at Hamline University, I discovered a passion for one-on-one tutoring. Now, I am thrilled to be working with Varsity Tutors as a tutor of virtually all K-12 level mathematics (and several other subjects!), in order to bring high-quality, caring, and dedicated tutoring to students in need. I am here to help! Whether a student needs to prepare for a test, expand their knowledge for personal enrichment, or gain some extra practice with the basics, I...

...I graduated from Boston College in 2009 and have worked at the neuroscience and psychiatry labs at Yale and Cornell. I enjoy working with people and wish to one day specialize in geriatrics. I have taught chess and English to young children and tutored children from foster care for two years to improve their literacy skills. I plan to work as a Teacher's Assistant for Physics at SUNY Purchase this upcoming Fall, but I am...

...but with intentions of one day going to medical school. I am currently doing research at the Hospital for Special Surgeries to gain valuable experience before heading off to medical school. While at Yale, I played soccer for 4 years and tutored other students in organic chemistry. I am very committed to helping my students improve and enjoy working in the sciences most specifically those on the MCAT - chemistry, organic chemistry, physics and biology.

...excitement in what they are learning - a "cool" factor. Showing students how cool (even fun!) learning certain subjects can be because of how it relates to them is an irreplaceable tool to get them interested in actually learning something, instead of simply "getting by" by cramming the night before. I do my absolute best to provide a positive, fun, engaging experience for students which focuses on their potential to succeed by showing them how...

...the intricacies of a test can improve a student's score just as much as knowing the subject material can. Different students learn in different ways but that kind of personal attention is difficult to provide in a classroom. With one on one tutoring sessions, any student can excel, even in the subjects he or she has the most trouble in. When I tutor a student, my first goal is to figure out the best way...

...knowledge I'd acquired as a high school student and undergraduate, but I also broadened my repertoire to cover new topics. I've since tutored most high school, college, and graduate school entrance exams. I've worked with students of all ages on grade-level studies in math, science, the humanities and foreign languages. Students at top high schools like Stuyvesant and Brooklyn Tech are especially engaging to work with due to the challenging nature of the material and...

...New York at New Paltz in their B.S./D.O. seven-year dual degree program affiliated with the New York Institute of Technology - College of Osteopathic Medicine. I am going into my second year of the program at New Paltz, and I have had experience tutoring many of my fellow classmates in difficult subjects especially math and science. I’ve also taken many AP classes that have helped me shine through my first year of college, in which...

...work with a wide variety of students, from special needs to the gifted and talented. This experience, more than anything, has helped me understand each student learns differently, and that the key to education is adapting to each student's learning style. I was recently awarded my MD, and have a dual masters in education and chemistry. My extensive science background combined with my experience and training as an educator has given me a unique set...

...tests, and the MCAT. I sincerely believe that while some of the concepts presented in these subjects and tests seem initially very difficult, they become much less intimidating if you have the confidence and perspective to look at the problems from the right angle. They don't have to be so challenging! I like to connect on students' levels and help them to find that confidence. In my free time I enjoy playing guitar and collecting...

...boost in school or in studying for an upcoming test. I am an incoming freshmen at Rutgers University Honors College, intending to major in Math and Philosophy on a pre-law track. In my free time I love to read, play chess, soccer, and basketball, and volunteer. I am also very involved with several types of debate and speech competitions. Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions!

...hilarious study mnemonics for upcoming tests. This past fall, I lived in Padua, Italy as an au pair for a family with a 6 year-old and an 8 year-old. I got to improve my Italian, drink delicious cappuccino with the other au pairs in the mornings while looking out over the beautiful piazzas, and travel all around Italy. I even went to the largest chocolate festival in all of Europe! Now that I’m back in...

...with a second major in classical guitar performance, taking a year off after my sophomore year to study flamenco guitar at the University of Seville in Spain.

After graduating, I worked in ophthalmology research at Washington University Medical before moving to New York City, where I am currently conducting breast cancer research as the lab manager in an immunology lab at...

...and a minor in writing and rhetoric. I love helping other students enjoy what they are learning by providing support as a tutor! Students who struggle in their academics often just need a role model who can focus on their individual learning style and encourage them to utilize it -- which is who I try to be each day. My goal for my students is for them to see past the challenges and enjoy the...
