Award-Winning Chemistry Tutors in Hampton, VA

...Math Honor Society and now tutor physics daily at VCU. I really enjoy working with students to help them understand the material as well as develop the processes necessary to solve a problem. I get the frustrations of school work, having gone/currently going through it. And I also get where a lot of gaps in learning may be coming from, having recently taken the same classes I offer tutoring assistance for. My goal is to...

I have not only a passion for learning, but I have a passion for teaching others as well. I am especially interested in science and math as they are the main two subjects that drive the world forward and give us new technologies that may some day change the world.

...Wiley University. I received my bachelor's degree in biology. I competed both cross county & Track and Field. During my junior and senior year, I was a full-time volunteer science tutor for my teammates from both cross country and Track & Field. Also, I was a volunteer part time research assistant for my Environmental biology Professor. My love and passion for science has led me to Varsity Tutors. I am here and ready to help...

...University of Michigan. All throughout school, as well as my medical training I enjoyed studying and tutoring other students, and formed many study groups. I have won a medical student teaching award, as well as a resident teaching award.

I am also interested in helping students excel in the MCAT, USMLE, and even medical board exams. I found...

...Diego, I moved to Seattle, Washington when my husband was transferred. Here I worked as a food molecular biologist. Working in this industry further expanded my knowledge of the field of biology and gave me a sense of gratitude for the people who test all of our raw foods before they arrive on the shelves at the grocery store. Three years after arriving in Seattle, I moved once again to Virginia. This time I applied...

...see how it relates to other topics, other courses, and, importantly, to real world situations, the material tends to become more concrete and easier to learn. So, my style of tutoring allows me to cater to someone who may be looking to pass their final science or math class as well as to someone who wants to take an in-depth look at the material and connect it to other subjects and to real-life situations, possibly...

...others to understand the world through math and science. I think it's vitally important to remove the intimidation factor associated with mathematics in particular. In my current position as a network administrator I spend a lot of my time explaining complex systems and applications so that all users have a working understanding. The majority of this work is one-on-one instruction. I look forward to the opportunity to give students that extra insight they need to...

...college-level writing and French. I have also tutored friends and family in Algebra and developmental math. When tutoring, my goal is to support students as they complete assignments, helping them accurately assess if they've met the assignment's criteria and enabling them to submit their best possible work.

...of how to succeed in the desired subject area. I tend to apply alternative methods that encourage open communication, and interactive engagement (versus "top down" teaching strategies). I believe strongly in self-assessment and giving the student the ability not only to find their strengths, but also their weaknesses and give them the skills to overcome those challenges through attainable milestones. I have fostered and tutored three nieces into advanced programs and honor rolls in their...

...a Project Manager in various fields. While I am happy with the switch, I miss working with students and helping them develop the skills and knowledge they need to succeed. I have discovered that my experience as an instructor has helped with my project management; and many skills I now have as a PM, I wish I had as a teacher. My strength is understanding that students learn differently, and often need things explained in...

...obtain a career that doesn't feel like work. My name is Malik Laidlaw and from my beginning stages of school I vowed to pursue the life of an educator because I knew from an early age that a student can only become as good as the teacher motivates them to be. I stand for understanding, simply because you wouldn't leave an artist to paint if the artist didn't understand the purpose of a brush.... A student...

...lot of experience with most sciences and I understand that the concepts can be very difficult at times if they are not explained properly. Science is an absolutely incredible field of study and is a critical foundation for several fields of further study like engineering or medicine. It is important to build a strong foundation. I believe I can be a great asset to my tuttees future by helping them achieve their goals and providing...

In my spare time, I enjoy reading mysterious novels, yoga,...

...and especially to things the student already knows they care about. Second, getting to know the student- everyone has unique talents, tendencies, and goals. There is an area of overlap between each school subject (even standardized tests, which require critical thinking!) and a student's goals, and it's usually bigger than it first appears. A star athlete doesn't just need to pass English to graduate; she needs to be able to write a well organized and...
