...and taking comparable classes again in my freshman year of college. In the workshop sessions I conducted as a chemistry TA, I would work through simple representative examples to help my students grasp general concepts, and then guide then through specific problems. My ability to illustrate the underlying concepts behind problems using different examples is very effective in garnering deeper understanding in those I tutor. I'm also good at asking questions geared to test whether...

...in a student's eyes. It's a rare moment when suddenly, the contents of one's mind are shuffled and reorganized in such a way that new insight emerges, and I love helping make that happen. My favorite subjects to teach are the life sciences: most any Biology, and some Environmental Science and Chemistry too. I also have a lot of experience with standardized tests and enjoy helping others become more comfortable and capable in tackling them....

...anyone's education. Having a personal, one-on-one mentor to guide 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...

My goal is your comprehension. My philosophy towards education is to first understand a student. A good tutor, in my view, does more listening than lecturing. I believe in a system where the tutor continually asks questions to get the student talking and thinking. Eventually, the student will find the answer and gain confidence to know that he or she can know and master any problem on their own.... First understand what a student knows, and then work from there.

...their dream schools. I tailor my tutoring to each individual student, addressing 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...

...at Cortland and M.S. from Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT). During my 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...

I am a qualified and experienced chemistry, mathematics and French tutor. I look forward to working with you and helping you achieve your goals!... The introductions, though brief, will be very important, as I use them to talk about my professional experience since this will increase the client's confidence in me. Then, I will request the student to tell the last topic covered. A number of oral questions on the topic covered will provide a clear picture of students problems.

...seeing my students grasp the subject material they once struggled with in areas like chemistry, math, and the SATs. Having been a student myself, I understand the anxiety and frustration of tackling a seemingly insurmountable, difficult subject material, and so, as a teacher, I believe it is absolutely necessary to start with the right learning environment. I always begin with topics the students feel comfortable with and then integrate new concepts into the students' existing...

...York City as a analytical chemist before starting my graduate studies at Tufts University. I tutor a broad range of subjects; I am most passionate about chemistry, mathematics and history (predominantly world history). I don’t just wish to impart not just knowledge and understanding but also a passion for the sciences. In my spare time, I enjoy reading classics, experimenting in cooking and of course the occasional pick-up game of rugby or football/soccer.
