I would welcome the opportunity to help you or your child reach their academic goals.

...and watching them become more confident in themselves and their ability to learn. I found that often times when students don't understand the material they are being taught, it is because they either have a weak foundation of prior knowledge, which is necessary to build more complicated concepts from, or it is due to an incompatibility between teaching and learning styles. Thus in my tutoring sessions, I focus on adapting my teaching style to be...

...currently struggling with, 2) Help students understand why they are struggling with a topic and how to identify any other study problems they may be having and 3)give the student the pre-requisite knowledge and resources to fix their current problem and develop learning strategies that can help them for years to come. Even if a student leaves my sessions believing that math is useless, they will still develop a value of discipline and learn to...

Hey all! My name is Anmol and I'm currently a junior studying Computer Science at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. I have been tutoring for the last 6 years and enjoy it very much :)

I am a current Senior at the University of Michigan studying Financial Mathematics. I have tutored professionally for 2 years as well as independently for 3 years. I am tutoring math as well as basic C++. My teaching philosophy is to teach you how to learn rather than give you the answer. Outside of tutoring I love snowboarding, traveling, photography, and reading.

I am passionate about teaching maths, physics and computer science. I have extensive experiences in web development work (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, .NET, PHP, and SQL). Language-wise, I am fluent in English, Cantonese and Mandarin Chinese as I was originally from Hong Kong but came to America when I was 15...

My name is Allison, I am 22 years old and a recent graduate from Georgia Tech. I majored in Industrial and Systems Engineering and graduated with a 3.5. I specialize in Math, Computer Science, Languages, and Standardized Testing.

...further my love for mentoring and teaching. Throughout the school year, I am a mentee for a Chicago Public school child which has definitely benefited my teaching skills. As a military kid, I understand that every child grasps concepts in diverse ways and has a unique set of skills. That is why I am willing to tackle a problem in various ways, whichever is best fit for the child to understand and truly know. I...

...in engineering. I spent two and a half years there completing my Masters of Science. To pay tuition, I worked as a Teaching Assistant and later a Teaching Associate for the University. Additionally, during High School and college, I spent many summers working as a Sailing Instructor. My last year I was Head Instructor at Rockland Community Sailing. This was especially rewarding for me, because this particular community sail program welcomed children of Youthlinks, a...

I recently finished graduate school in Classics, which is the study of Latin and ancient Greek. Prior to that point, I taught high school Latin for two years. I have also tutored college students in writing. I am available to tutor most subjects, though my specialties are foreign language (German, Spanish, and Latin) and test prep. I teach by asking students the right questions so that they learn the method of finding the right answers.

...tools available online. I like to think I bring this versatility to every aspect of life, including tutoring. Another example of this is my affinity for realistic drawing; by using proportions and geometry to analyze a scene as well as incorporating different techniques, I am able to achieve the desired result. When I teach, I try to determine the best way that you learn and what you enjoy so that my approach will be best...

...addition, I have been an organic chemistry class liaison in which I taught a group of 10-15 students working on different chemistry problems as a group and answering their questions for 1 year. I have also odd private tutoring on the side and have done online tutoring with BrainFuse, which includes tutoring students from K-12 the grade in various subjects such as math and sciences and have enjoyed it. On my free time, I enjoy...

...hour each day for 3 years as a volunteer high school math and science tutor in our school's academic resource center. I also tutored professionally outside of school for multiple high school students. I'm an active user on the online Stack Exchange network, answering math and computer science questions for free. When I'm not tutoring or learning new concepts myself, you can find me playing fetch with my dog (a huge, fluffy, Golden Retriever), playing...

...ago. I will teach any math classes that fall below Calculus 3. I also teach Python and C++. When I am not busy studying or going to school, I like doing all sorts of sports and activities. I naturally found my passion for tutoring when my friends would ask me questions about the HS subjects we were studying together. After some time, people started coming home to me to be taught and prepared for exams.

As a student who is truly passionate about Math and Science, I seek to help others understand Calculus, Physics, Chemistry, etc, so that their foundation in the sciences is strong enough to take on more complex topics. I believe in letting my teaching style be dynamic in order to teach different students successfully.... My philosophy is that I should teach my students how to reason, not how to use a formula. Truly understanding a concept better...

I'm a recent CS grad, having tutored high school- and college-aged students over the complete gamut of computer science topics from the basics of programming language constructs to computational analysis and finite automata. I find that CS is best taught by example, so my teaching methods will involve going through scaled-down examples by hand, and for programming problems, stepping through code line by line to understand how everything works.

...I believe that in order to build a solid base of knowledge, an intuitive feel for analytical thinking is a must, and I hope to share this with my students, mainly through Physics and Mathematics. In my teaching style, I prefer to use a firm but gentle approach to learning, starting with a general principle before working step-by-step through its practical applications so that the student can properly understand and internalize the material. In my...
