...in Materials Science & Engineering and a minor in Psychology. I believe that in math and science you need to understand what problem you are trying to solve and why you are trying to solve it, and once you can grasp the big picture, you can then focus on solving problems by focusing on the more technical aspects of it. In college we had science outreach days where we presented and explained demonstrations to students...

...the University of Illinois at Champaign-Urbana, I naturally have a passion for learning and teaching. As a Junior and Senior student I was the Head Teaching Assistant for the Accelerated General Chemistry courses for the undergraduate freshman and am continuing my passion for teaching by tutoring! Also, as an engineer I like to teach the practicality of the subjects that the student is learning and show them how it would apply in the real world.

...in physics. I am a passionate learner, especially when it comes to math and physics. I love to share my knowledge and experience with others. I hope I can help with a difficult class, exam, or learning for the sake of learning. After overcoming many academic challenges I have accumulated a lot of knowledge to share and have learned how to communicate difficult concepts very effectively. I hope I can be of service.

...also teach dance to children from elementary to high school and occasionally adults. I am proficient in the subjects and areas I have studied. The reason I think I can be an effective teacher is that I had to work hard to understand and execute materials both in engineering and dance. Nothing was easy for me so I had to find more effective ways to study and understand the subject matter. I will be able...

...at Chicago. I have enjoyed teaching at the college level as a TA in many chemistry courses and have privately tutored high school chemistry, algebra, geometry, physics, financial literacy, and test prep (ACT, SAT, SAT Chemistry Subject Test). When I am not conducting research or tutoring, you can find me being a mentor for Science Club at the Boys and Girls Club, enjoying the outdoors, or spending time with friends or my mom.

...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 part of Broadreach Family and Community Services, aimed at serving underprivileged kids in the area. This program, and it's connection to us, allowed children who otherwise would have never have had a chance to step foot on a boat, the opportunity to learn how to sail and have...

...Engineering at Illinois Institute of Technology. I thoroughly enjoy studying and teaching all things STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) and music, and find that I am especially good at guiding students through some of the tougher conceptual work that goes into understanding topics in these fields. If you feel like you don't understand what the point of studying a certain subject is, why it matters, or just can't seem to grasp the concepts, then...

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.

...to underprivileged youth by mentoring them using lectures and hands-on activities including neurophysiology, microbiology, and aerospace engineering. In addition to this, I have assisted with teaching elementary students basic science related subjects such as physics, chemistry, ecology and biology through small learning groups. I also have experience tutoring children with Autism, intellectual disabilities, ADHD and OCD. My goal is to understand the individualistic learning strategies associated with those I tutor. It's important to figure out...

...eventually rose to manage the program. Although I am comfortable tutoring a variety of subjects, I am most passionate about writing and language, and I truly believe that strong writing skills are an asset in every area of life.
