...school. Throughout my undergraduate and graduate education, I have had the privilege of tutoring students of various grade levels. My tutoring strength lies in being able to adjust my tutoring style to a student's learning style. Some students may require written notes, while others may prefer conceptual teaching. Certain students require additional homework and assignments while others might be self-motivated. As someone who has tutored for about 3 years, I am proficient in teaching Math...

...in education. I firmly believe that every student has the potential for "math literacy"; with a little help, anyone can be a math-confident person. I am most comfortable teaching math subjects (from preschool to BC Calculus), but I do have some background in reading/writing tutoring. I currently work as a sous chef four nights a week, but otherwise my schedule is open. I prefer online but am willing to travel up to 20-25 miles if...

...to teach the material, but guide the students into figuring out and understanding the material through discussion with their peers. Through this experience, I have learned that each student learns at a different pace and grasps concepts differently, and my biggest responsibility as a tutor is to convey the information in a manner that students will understand best. As a student myself, I am a firm believer that the best way to understand and retain...

...school student in 11th grade and started working with local students. Soon after, I joined Varsity. The most important part of tutoring students is working on their level.

...that he already knows the answer to his question. I do this by directed questioning, leading the student from beginning to middle to end in a logical progression. The result is a student who learns to have confidence in himself and in applying the information he has already mastered. 5. I receive back from teaching students more than I put in. I am constantly overwhelmed and gratified by the feeling I get from seeing the...

...I was fortunate enough to have a paradigm shift in the way I perceived myself and the world around me and love getting to share the good news with others: people who prefer reading and making music and art can also do great in their other classes, especially when the math and science is presented the right way. In my free time I like to spin, knit, sew and translate Latin and Old English. I...

Hi, I have a strong background in chemistry, organic chemistry, paleontology, and meteorology. I have a life-long fascination with the natural world, and I learn new things everyday. I enjoy sharing what I've learned, and hope that it will spark an interest in the amazing world in which we live.... In my experience, many of the students that have problems in chemistry are at least in part a result of merely memorizing the equations. This leads to easily being frustrated, which leads to a mental block. Then, the panic and time wasted blanking out on this question leads to a mental block on the next question on the test. I emphasize understanding the physical/chemical basis of the problem that they are trying to solve, so they are not relying completely on memorization. I also break up the problem into the following questions: Do I understand what am I being asked to solve? What are my knowns and unknowns? Based on this, what equation do I use? How do I solve the equation without a lot of calculator entries/re-entries/missed entries? There is always some memorization, but I put a greater emphasis on analysis and understanding the problem.
