Award-Winning Chemistry Tutors in Maryland

I recently graduated from Johns Hopkins University, majoring in Environmental Engineering and Economics. Since coming to the east coast, I have tutored local Baltimore elementary students in elementary/middle school math and reading and writing. However, I also have experience teaching high school students for Science Olympiad, a common high school science competition. I am a super flexible tutor and believe that teaching styles should and can be adapted to every student's needs.

I believe that any student can achieve anything they want with the right guidance. I have successfully taught students from middle school to undergrad in wide ranging subjects from biology to chemistry to databases to US history. I believe in holistic learning - by which I mean you should UNDERSTAND the material, not just memorize the material and if that means going back to basics to ensure a good foundation, I'll get you there.

...learning, I also love being able to teach others the things that I have learned. I have taught high school biology, chemistry and physical science and have tutored in SAT Math prep there as well.

In helping students grasp very abstract concepts,...

...love helping people succeed in difficult areas of study, like math or science. I firmly believe anyone can do well in these courses! Not just the "smart" kids. When it comes to math, I think that it can be difficult to succeed in a school system that only favors certain types of learning. This puts some students at an unfair disadvantage. Everyone can be good at math! It simply depends on how they're being taught...

...the United States I began a rigorous one-year post baccalaureate premedical program at Bennington College in Vermont. This was an incredibly challenging experience, in which I not only learned physics, chemistry and biology, but I also learned to be strategic with my time, and get the most out of my classes and homework.
