I feel that anyone can learn anything as long as it is explained in a way that is conducive to them, and I aim to achieve that in my teaching. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy ultimate frisbee, television, reading, and games of all sorts.

...freshmen chemistry and surely enough, the fear of being wrong still persists in these students as well.I told them what I told my younger students about how being wrong helps us to learn and find the right. Once students started to incorporate this into their mentality, tutoring sessions would suddenly become just casual conversations because my students were basically teaching and motivating themselves. If given the opportunity, I will motivate my students as a tutor...

After college, I worked at a pathology company preparing and screening cytology specimens for the presence of cancer. While I found the work rewarding, it was largely unfulfilling. Tutoring and teaching are my passion, but in my free time I also enjoy backpacking, kayaking, and tennis. Whatever your chemistry challenge, I am...

...of Washington, I was fortunate to be exposed to very different learning and teaching styles. I also learned to appreciate that very smart people can think in very different ways from each other and that people who are outstanding at some subjects inevitably need help with others. I always bring this insight to bear on tutoring, where I work together with the student to find a method or style that works best for them!

...SAT, a number of AP tests as well as the MCAT. From my experience, half of acing these subjects is understanding the material and the other half is understanding the test. These tests can seem overwhelming at first but I can offer advice on efficient ways to tackle problems so that you too can come out with your grade, and sanity, intact. I have personal experience in taking numerous AP classes including but not limited...

...am a recent graduate of the University of Oregon's Environmental Science program, and have minors in Biology and Latin American studies. In the fall I will be starting a program in Speech and Hearing Sciences, and plan to follow up with a masters in Speech Language Pathology.

...studying, then you know that you got it! I have been teaching for five years not only because it is helpful in giving back to the community, but also because I need to in order to master my craft. Because of this, it is in my best interest to optimize my teaching style and habits whenever I organize a session. I dabble in epistemology, which is the study of knowledge, and am very intent on streamlining...

...material, which is crucial for its absorption. I also admit mistakes, which eases students' fear of asking questions or making mistakes themselves. I take these approaches to foster a sense of collaboration by communicating that I, the teacher, am not on a different level than the students. Instead, we work together. I learn about my students' interests outside of science, their motivations, their backgrounds, and their plans for the future. Building these relationships and inspiring...
