My reason for wanting to teach is purely to help change lives of students who are willing to learn and excel. I feel I can be in the best position to help students out by being a tutor for Varsity Tutors. My education from attaining a Masters in Biomedical Sciences and currently studying in a doctoral program to attain my Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) degree qualifies me to have the ability to help these students excel in their subjects. Working in the past with students on their dental admissions test (DAT) and other teaching assistant jobs, I feel I can make a difference. My strengths are in the biomedical sciences field. I am confident to teach basic math and also mentor and teach students who want to attain a better score on the DAT.I have worked with children since high school. I have volunteered at multiple clinics and camps where I was exposed to children and taught how to mentor them.I feel I can be a great tutor and role model for these future students who are willing to learn and work towards their goals.

Hello!My name is Alec and I am from Marblehead, Massachusetts. I am a graduate of Lafayette College with a Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry and Minor in Health and Life Science. I have tutored students in various subjects, particularly in Math and the Sciences, for over 9 years.I have completed my applications for Dental School for the Fall of 2014, and am working in the Boston area for the time being. My knowledge in Science, Mathematics, Organization, Communication and other skills provide a comprehensive tutoring package for a variety of clients. I am a capable and committed tutor, and I look forward to meeting new clients and helping in any way I can!

I am interested in bettering your educational experience in the Life Sciences, Chemistry, and Math! If you or your child is struggling with math or science courses or, perhaps, is preparing for a standardized test that requires application knowledge in these areas then I may be the guy for you! I am also interested in tutoring individuals who are working towards acceptance into a professional school that might have been out of school for a while.I have experience in private tutoring to elementary/middle school through college level students in math and the sciences and have helped many achieve goals that seemed unattainable. I have done this by establishing what areas of the subject are most troubling to students and focusing on them by using a variety of different sources. I have many textbooks and class notes, manuals, etc. that the students can use to have multiple viewpoints on the same subject.I also believe that a person learns best when they are able to recap and teach the subject to another individual. Therefore, I provide not only the details in a subject, but also a bigger picture motif that enables the student to make real-life connections with what they are learning and gives them enough understanding to be able to "teach" the topic.As someone who recently graduated Arizona State University with a B.S. in Microbiology, I understand the hardships that many students must face in large classroom learning environments and so I can relate to younger or more mature adult students. I have much experience in working in a lab setting where application and science work in tandem so I realize the necessity in flexibility and the importance in explaining the exceptions to the rules that we learn in science.My studies have led me to pursue a career in dentistry and I will be beginning dental school at UCLA in the fall so I am also an ideal candidate for more specialized test prep. such as for the DAT, OAT, PCAT, and MCAT. I am also available for ACT test prep. and I am flexible and open to new endeavors and experiences!

I am a graduate of Indiana University - Bloomington. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with a minor in Biology. I am currently a graduate student Washington University in St. Louis en route to obtaining a Master in Arts in Biology and planning to attend dental school next fall. I am available to tutor multiple types of Biology courses in addition to organic chemistry. I am also available for DAT tutoring as I did well enough on my test to warrant 6 dental school interviews for the current cycle. I personally believe I can help any student can reach his/her academic goals through effective communication and thorough preparation. In my spare time, I like to spend time with friends and family, play a wide variety of sports, exercise and read.

I am a graduate of the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA). I received my Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry. During the course of my studies, I was a tutor and peer leader at UTSA and have continued tutoring privately after graduation. Since graduation, I have also gained experience in healthcare settings and am pursuing a pathway to pharmacy school. I tutor chemistry at both the high school level (regular and AP) and the college level (general inorganic chemistry, organic chemistry, & biochemistry). I used to be a struggling high school chemistry student until I got to college and changed my mindset on what chemistry is at its core from a seemingly daunting, complicated, and boring subject to the very link between physics and biology. Since then, I have been an A student in college and passed all my chemistry classes with flying colors. The secret: the beauty of chemistry (or any other science) is not how complex it is but how incredibly simple it can be with the right mindset. I strongly believe that liking a subject is the first step to performing well in it. Why should you like or care about chemistry? The same elements of the periodic table that form all of the cosmos are the exact building blocks that make up you! Through simple physical arguments, you can explain all of the chemical world, including stars, planets, and life itself! My job as a tutor, thus, is more than just helping you plug numbers into an equation. It is to instill in you a love of the subject so that you can appreciate what you are investing your time and effort into and also so that you can become a lifelong learner! In my free time, I enjoy watching and playing sports, especially soccer, football, and basketball!

I have been a private tutor for about 2 years. I have worked with a wide range of students, from elementary students as well as tutoring at the college level for upper level science courses. Being a recent college graduate, I believe I am able to connect with students more easily and understand their perspective when approaching difficult topics. I am patient with my students and always do my preparation before a lesson so that my time with the student is efficient. I strive to not only teaching the material in an effective manner, but instill the confidence needed so that the student can flourish in the classroom setting. I believe it is my combination of subject mastery, diligence and desire to teach that makes me a successful tutor.

At times, studying can be a challenge. With the proper techniques, strong dedication and a desire to learn and do well, I can help you succeed at your goals.Prior to attending and graduating from dental school, I tutored elementary, middle school and high school students. I have experience in tutoring subjects including, but not limited to, algebra and arithmetic, history, science, and English. I've also helped tutor students studying for the DAT. I strive for my students to succeed--and with a little effort, they do!People like subjects that they do well in. A little bit of time each day goes a long way in the path to success. In the past 8 years of studying, I have taken many exams and have learned a few tricks. If you put in the time and really understand the materials, success is inevitable! I look forward to meeting you!

I'm a senior in college and I am currently studying biomedical sciences on the pre-dental track. I am great at explaining things to all age groups and would love to help anyone with questions to help them succeed in their careers. I look forward to meeting many new people and helping out as many as I can.

I am a graduate of The George Washington University with a Bachelors of Science in Biology and I am a current Dental Student at the University of Maryland! I have always loved Bio and Chem and have enjoyed sharing that passion with my students over 5 years of tutoring. From teaching as a STEM mentor at Ivy League Universities to hosting pre-exam crash courses for undergrad Bio/Chem, I have always enjoyed using my expertise to help students succeed. I'm dependable, hardworking, and committed to helping you not only understand the content but enjoy it! I also have hundreds of hours of 1-on-1 tutoring and I'm proud to say my students often tell me my easy-going demeanor and simple approach to topics make understanding complex subjects that much easier. So, if you need some help with your Biology or Chemistry classes, whether it be middle school, high school, University, or even preparing to take the SAT or DAT, I am excited and ready to help you!

I attended the University of Detroit Mercy where I gained a Bachelor of Science in Biology. I have also recently graduated with a Masters of Basic Medical Sciences from Wayne State University. As you may be able to tell, I have had a passion for science, especially biology, for many years. My academic journey has given me an immense amount of experience with a wide range of subjects and tests. I know very intimately what it is like to be under pressure to perform well in school and on tests and therefore can relate to students under similar circumstances. I have had the opportunity to tutor many people in a wide range of ages and academic abilities in the past.I tutor a wide range of subjects but am most passionate about Math, Science, Reading, Writing, and Test Preparation. I believe the first and most vital step in working with a student is to identify specifically where he or she is struggling. Every student is different and deserves a teaching method that is tailored to them. I believe students learn best when they are guided along through discussion and hands-on methods as opposed to when they are lectured to; I also believe learning can and should be fun! When it comes to preparing for tests, I believe that what you know is only a small part of the puzzle; perfecting test-taking skills is equally important. I have taken many standardized tests throughout my life, and have been able to do well by understanding the tests and utilizing these skills.When I have spare time, I enjoy staying active by playing basketball and exercising. I also enjoy reading, sports, music and traveling. I look forward to helping you find your full potential on the road to success.
