Award-Winning Chemistry Tutors in Nashville, TN

...prep for English ACT exams. I can tutor in math (pre calculus, trigonometry, algebra, geometry) sciences (biological sciences, chemistry, physics) and English. My favorite subject to tutor is algebra because it is like a puzzle, and who does not like a good puzzle? My teaching philosophy consists of learning about the students' interests and providing a way to relate their interests into the work they are doing so it can be more meaningful to them....

...to learn and am fulfilled by guiding students to reach their maximum potential. My areas of expertise are ACT Prep, English, Literature, and Math. I love to work on essays as well. I'm often blown away by how lucky we are as human beings to have the capacity to consciously pursue interests and develop skills. We have the ability to see something, conceptualize it, and say "hmm... I want to do that," and then go...

...have tutored in just about all academic areas but my favorite is math and just about anything to do with numbers. My teaching philosophy is that the teacher serves as a guide while learning is primarily the work of the student. I take the tutoring approach of starting with the students strengths and building on them in order to apply them to their weaknesses. Outside of academia, I enjoy music, sports and pop culture.

...school/algebra in particular) and writing! I believe having a strong foundation in middle school math/algebra is so important because the basics learned from these classes help establish success in higher level math courses; I want to help make sure students grasp the content to the fullest extent. I also enjoy teaching writing as writing skills carry with us our whole lives, whether it be in an English class, college application essay, or a letter! I...

...graduate school. I earned a Master of Science in environmental science with a focus on energy systems and climate change, as well as a Master of Secondary Science Education. I currently teach high school chemistry and honors biology at another independent school. I love working with high school students and am most passionate about fostering an interest in science and an understanding of the science that is all around us. I am currently tutoring life...

...hope to use my studies to help those in the 3rd world with the necessities we take for granted. As a tutor, I believe the most important thing I can do for you is to push you to think on your own. I've tutored students before who simply wanted me to do their work for them, but that will not help you to learn at all. If you want to become self-sufficient, I will help...

Hello, my name is David and graduated from West Virginia University. My majors are chemistry and biology and have a lot of background in math subjects as I do go to an engineering school. I look forward to working with you!

...my alley. Ever since I took step one with MTeach (which let me teach in a real classroom three different lesson plans that I made) I knew that teaching is a passion and I've been working towards that goal ever since. Outside of School I enjoy hiking, rock climbing, golf, Frisbee, tennis, a few video games, reading, writing, playing the ukulele, and simply exploring the world around me. When I'm not working in the lumber...

...and Spanish. In Nashville, I am a member of Vanderbilt Student Volunteers for Science, through which I teach hands-on science lessons in local middle school classrooms. I am knowledgeable and can tutor in a variety of subjects, but my strengths are in math and science. I am passionate about tutoring because education is extremely important to me. I want convey my love of learning to others and help them appreciate its importance as well.

...hope to share my passion for science with students. I have experience mentoring undergraduate students during my graduate school education to help them gain research experience. I am a very patient teacher and have the ability to see problems from the students perspective; my tutoring style adapts to each student's individual needs, but centers on getting each student to come to their solutions rather than following any one formula for success. I have a lot...

...of work. Sometimes it's hard for some teachers to break down a complex topic for burgeoning learners because they themselves approach it from a higher level and can't think at a low enough level. After a year of science outreach in high-need Nashville public schools, I've found that I have a knack for breaking down complex concepts to an easy-to-digest format that incorporates math and literature comprehension into real scientific problems. Fortunately, the more I...

...Why do we not know everything about genetics when this field is integral to the process of every living thing? The answers are quite complicated. My aim as a tutor is to incite a curiosity in students as well as to sharpen critical thinking skills when examining basic and complex science subjects. It isn't easy navigating the biological and genetic processes behind living structures, in fact, even scientists admit that we are far from "having...

...of pharmacy, Pharm.D.) I am a board-certified psychiatric pharmacist (BCPP) I have taught/mentored pharmacy students; written chapters in psychiatry for the predecessor for Rx Prep (PharmPrep); and written test questions for BCPP recertification materials.

...also on the pre-medicine track. After tutoring Science Olympiad students in high school, I have learned to understand the material from a students' perspective. I try to anticipate the types of questions a student might have, and answer them to the best of my abilities. I also try to teach the same material using different learning styles to make sure my students fully understand the concepts. I like to play Tennis and Ultimate Frisbee during...

...distill them into more easily understood discrete steps. The method that was taught at Tennessee State University's College of Engineering reinforces a structured approach to problem solving by having the student list the problem statement, identify the known and unknown quantities, list relevant theories/equations, and provide assumptions. I have always believed that getting the right answer is secondary to understanding the material and feeling confident in the ability to apply it correctly.

I'm a recent chemistry graduate from the University of Kentucky, and I'll be starting my PhD in materials science at Rensselaer in the fall. I've worked as a tutor for two years helping students in both individual and group settings. My goal as a tutor is to help break down material step-by-step to make it more understandable. I'm committed to working with students at all skill levels to help them succeed.
