I am able to understand subject matter deeply while being able to break down complex methods into small and easily understandable steps. I am very creative in coming up with unique ways for you to understand concepts that you are struggling with. I can work with you to come up with and execute a good...

...My teaching philosophy can be summed in three words: never sit still. I don't see learning as a static process, whereby a student studies for a test, passes it, then lets the information slip away. Rather, I believe the student should be truly hungry to absorb the material, to truly own it, then use that newfound knowledge as the jump-off point for even higher achievement. The student should never sit still in his/her academic achievements;...

...teach biology to younger college students. Working in these different experiences showed me how rewarding it is to help students understand material and become more successful in their educational paths. Having been both homeschooled and a student at school, I have a unique philosophy on education. I believe that learning material at your own pace skimming over the information you know well and spending more time on what you find difficult is crucial. I also...

I am extremely passionate and excited about helping other students reach their full academic potential, and look forward to working with you!

As a master's student and former medical student, I know how challenging academics can be. I also know how having a helping hand, a guidance through the confusion, can help one gain confidence in themselves to excel. From tutoring children to post-graduates, I have seen that all students (no matter their age, level of education, strengths, weaknesses, etc.) who are willing to learn can succeed. ... In a typical first session, the student and I usually...

...LSAT, it's 33% learning the test, 33% sustaining motivation, and 34% evaluation of one's approach/style. As a tutor, I see my job as supporting a student in all three ways, more like a personal trainer than a teacher. I've seen how to improve 10 deciles on standardized test--enough to change your options to the next tier of schools--in 3 months. I spent 3 months and 450 hours studying the LSAT. Some of it was very...

...of my favorite volunteer experiences was tutoring high school students from Dorchester and Roxbury. I taught my students English, Physics, Chemistry, Algebra, Trigonometry, Biology, and helped them with standardized test preparation. My personal tutoring style is to use a combination of relatable metaphors and real life examples to help my students genuinely understand whatever material we are covering. I scored in the 98th percentile on the SAT and the MCAT2015, so I feel confident with...

...One can often find me at Clark Park or Walnut Greens trying to shoot for par or die trying. I have been tutoring for the last one and a half years and I absolutely love it. I am a national-circuit debater who places a strong value on communication. I enjoy watching my students exceed their own expectations; it creates an undeniable feeling of simple elation for both my student and myself. I am dedicated to...

...levels. I've worked with students teaching basic principles of economics, and have worked on higher level theory classes, and feel comfortable teaching all levels of economics. I've worked teaching as debate coach at the Boston Latin School and as an instructor at the Harvard Summer Debate Camp Workshop, and have worked with high school students across the country, teaching them about current politics, economics, philosophy, and international relations. I think my most effective tutoring skill...

...I was a TA for Physics II: Electricity and Magnetism at MIT, and I tutored in math and science in high school. I scored a perfect score on the SAT Math section twice, and have taken 11 AP tests with an average score of 4.7. I believe the best way to learn math is through challenging problems, and gaining confidence in yourself when you find that you understand those problems. I am passionate about learning,...

...was a tutor for fpur years at Brigham Young University, and I love helping people learn! I tutor Economics, Math and all the basic sciences. I really enjoy tutoring these subjects because my students and I work together to understand the principles underlying the problems, which helps us remember everything better and makes studying more enjoyable. My tutoring theory is that students either know the answer or know how to find it, and together we...

I believe that every student is capable of learning any subject as long as they have the right teacher. I was fortunate enough to grow up in an environment that constantly challenged me and helped me achieve a better education. I hope to be able to pass my knowledge to any child who has the fervor to learn more.

...a story. Whether it's history or statistics, understanding information in context is important to scoring well on tests as well as how it relates to daily life. A thorough understanding of a topic can only be attained this way, and thus I believe my two goals compliment one another perfectly in this regard. Albert Einstein once said one doesn't fully understand a topic until one can explain it to a six year old; I'd like...
