Award-Winning Chemistry Tutors in Syracuse, NY

...their personal strengths/weaknesses. I approach tutoring as a team effort as we work together to achieve success. My teaching philosophy is that every student has the potential to succeed, and the key to achieving your goal is a matter of hard work and dedication rather than intelligence. I work with all students of varying levels. For those that do not do well under the pressure of standardized tests, I strive to make test-taking less anxiety-inducing...

...am a recent graduate of Northeastern University with my Bachelor's of Science degree in Chemical Engineering. I am currently working in the lab of Professor Robert Langer at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology working on novel drug delivery systems for the gastrointestinal tract. I am hoping to attend medical school in pursuit of becoming a physician. I am currently interested in pediatrics and psychiatry but I am looking forward to exploring a range of available...

...serving as a private tutor, teaching assistance and small group instructor. I have taught students from elementary to graduate levels, helping them to excel in mathematics, science and standardized tests. Having taken many standardized test myself and taught at all levels I am able to not only assist with subject matter but also test taking strategies. Like any good tutor I take pride in the achievements of my student and want them to succeed. I...

...I helped to complete a problem set. For economics, I held 3 hours of office hours per week where students in the course would come in with questions on weekly homework assignments or exams. I have learned chemistry and computer science from different perspectives having taken AP Chemistry and AP Computer Science in high school and taking comparable classes again in my freshman year of college. In the workshop sessions I conducted as a chemistry...

...prior education includes two years at Colgate University as a biology major, where I then transferred to Buffalo to pursue Exercise Science and go on to PT school. I am passionate about science and math! I have a lot of experience with biology, anatomy, physiology along with various math subjects. I have numerous lab practical experiences teaching students hands on in the lab. In high school I participated in an after school tutoring program.

I studied biomedical engineering at the University at Buffalo. I am interested in patent law and will be attending the University of New Hampshire School of Law this Fall. I've taught a middle school summer course for the Buffalo Engineering Awareness for Minorities.

...degree, I am planning on attending medical school. Outside of academics, I am involved in some on-campus organizations like Camp Kesem and the American Medical Students Association. I also played soccer and lacrosse in high school, and I would love to pick those back up someday! It wasn't too long ago that I was in middle and high school. I've taken subjects that weren't my strong suit, and I've asked for help more times than...

...degrees I acquired over four years of organic synthetic research. While pursuing my M.S. I was awarded a Teaching Assistantship. This involved instructing two laboratory classes each semester as well as providing tutoring services for students. The first year I was an instructor and tutor for General Chemistry and Organic Chemistry for the second year. During this time I discovered my desire to educate. I am currently working as a substitute teacher for the Syracuse...

...love to share facts that I think are neat with anybody who will listen. Since I think physics and astronomy are amazing, I love sharing my knowledge and passion for those subjects especially, and that's why I became a teacher. My passion for the subject shows when I'm teaching, and I love watching students eyes light up as they begin to understand the subject better under my tutelage. Students will be able to develop self...

...you through subject material is a factor that can prove to be a difference maker in achieving at the highest level. From my experience in undergrad at Cornell University to the many test-prep classes I have taken, I feel that I am knowledgeable in science subjects and mathematics and have developed strategies to best apply these techniques to standardized tests. I look forward to working with Varsity Tutors to help others the same way I...

..."Aha! Moment" when my class-mates, and later trainees, understood a concept. I was able to see the improvements first-hand and it elated me to see them succeed. I have been a 'trainer' in every career I've had. This has increased my skill in demonstrating procedural activities as well as offering multiple alternatives to obtain the same result, and establishing a more efficient way to deliver training information. My passion is mainly Biology and Chemistry, but...

...out of ten students improved their scores by more than 200 points. Through these teaching experiences, I have learned not only to become a teacher from the students' perspective, but also what it takes to be an effective educational provider and a mentor. While taking six medical school courses throughout my graduate school program, I have been able to practice and enhance teaching methods by organizing study groups that regularly conducted review sessions before exams,...

...helped several college students through challenging chemistry, physics, and biology courses. After graduating from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor two years early, I have been spending most of my time doing research. My research projects have ranged from molecular biology, biochemistry, and computational biology to applied chemistry, nanomaterials, and algorithm development. I think that I have received enough experience not only to be an expert in these fields, but also confidently share my knowledge...

I am a Master's student in Biomedical Science and Pharmacology. I have much experience mentoring college level biology and chemistry courses, particularly Biochemistry.

I am a junior at Syracuse university right now. I am a currently pursuing a BS in Biology, BS in Neuroscience, and a Minor in Psychology. I am an aspiring neurosurgeon. I also play on the ice hockey team here on campus, but I can always find time to help anyone who needs it!

...had a strong affinity for math and science. From algebra and geometry to chemistry and physics, I loved making sense of the natural world using mathematical expressions and scientific principles. I studied Chemical Engineering at Virginia Tech and also completed minors in Green Engineering and Chemistry, giving me a further insight into the beauty of science as well as the need for new scholars to engineer a better future for the planet. My passion for...

I am a dedicated student with a year's worth of tutoring experience in biology. I am passionate about the subject matter and truly enjoy sharing my knowledge with others.

...way of looking at it than most tutors. Remember. English is rough. It can be understood through tough thorough thought though. My teaching style differs depending on the student I am teaching, the age group they are in and the subject I am teaching. I believe that each person is different and so their learning styles are all different as well. I try to adapt to each of my students. As a baseline, I use...

...to play out. We have a small farm and we are planning a guitar shop. My 20-year old son (my youngest) is a certified Luthier and makes beautiful guitars. We have a steer named Mr. Speckles (who will become an ox because I just can't see eating him at this point) and chickens, ducks, and geese, and a garden. My daughters are off on their own adventures. I have a BS degree in Biotechnology from...
