...physics. I've been working as a math and physics tutor for four years in undergrad as well as grad school, so I know exactly where students struggle and am very eager to help. I also worked as a teaching assistant for Fluid Mechanics. I watch football, soccer, and LOL in my spare time.... Instead of telling you the answer, I would guide you and show you the method in a general way.

...fall. I can offer assistance in mathematics, up to the differential equations level, as well as in microeconomics, macroeconomics, biology, chemistry and physics.

...science classes and students like crazy! I'm particularly strong in biology but also totally comfortable with chemistry, English and writing, social studies/history, and test prep. As a teacher my style is to help students discover the answers on their own, and become more confident in their ability to use critical thinking. When I'm not tutoring...

...the ages of 7 to 18. By far, my favorite subject to tutor is Math because once a student understands a mathematical concept, the problems that he/she struggled with before become astonishingly easy. I believe that tutoring is a very underestimated supplemental tool that should be more seriously considered if a student is having trouble...

...challenges and applications. I also enjoy tutoring with younger students because I get to use manipulatives and pictures to help students understand the math. I believe students learn best when I meet them at their level and determine their learning style. Everyone learns in different ways and my first goal would be to find out...

...in various basic science subjects. Ever since I was in grade school myself, I enjoyed doing math problems and always found a fun way to work through them. Though I have not been certified to teach in an education system, I have plenty of experience teaching. When I don't have my head stuck in a...

...can be devastating. I watch a student solve problems and take note of how they deal with being stuck. This is crucial in physics and math because at some point everyone "hits a wall" so to speak. I find the solution to this is having the student work through lots of problems with careful prompting...
