...information to non-technical personnel. My position gave me the opportunity to solve the problems always on behalf of our clients. When I was a student I always summarized my learning process and faults I made so that when people asked me about homework questions I could reflect on myself and used my experience and methods to discuss with them. I always put myself in others' shoes so that to solve the problems effectively. What's more,...

...courses, including: general chemistry, organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry, and high school chemistry. I absolutely love teaching students. I most enjoyed when students understood the concepts and could apply them to new problems. I believe it is most important for students to understand the concepts, rather than memorize specific formulas, reactions, or mechanisms. By learning the concepts, you can apply the concepts to problems to more challenging problems. I hope to get the chance to work...

...tutors and teachers who were engaging and made me excited about the material. Those two attributes are something I strive for while tutoring. Attending college has allowed me to gain a lot of experience tutoring various math and physics classes. When I work with my students, I focus on the logical steps to understanding the material. Then applying that knowledge to problem solving techniques. In math I tutor classes ranging from Pre-Algebra through Differential Equations....

I love to learn and to teach. Studied physics and electrical engineering in college. Lifelong music nerd.

...I'm either hiking or camping in the mountains with my puppy, Skiing in winter and playing Nintendo on those slow rainy days. Math is tough... we all understand that. But the enthusiasm a teacher/tutor has for the subject can make all the difference. I've had plenty of teachers that lack the enthusiasm to inspire their students and it shows on test performance. This is something I am very conscious NOT to follow. I want my...

...physics and chemistry of the atmospheres of planets outside our solar system, but my work also significantly overlaps with the work of biologists, chemists, geophysicists, and even philosophers in my field. As a scientist, I am dedicated to honing an expertise in exoplanet astronomy while also developing a working knowledge of biology, chemistry, and geophysics in order to better contextualize my work. As an aspiring scientist, I am also devoted to effective scientific communication. Throughout...

I enjoy understanding and learning from my students on top of showing them mathematics in a way tailored to them.

Hello! I am an engineer by training, who is looking to help young people cultivate love and interest for math and science!

...the STEM (science technology engineering math) team at my workplace as I am very passionate about STEM. I enjoy competing in triathlons, reading, hiking, and traveling to difference countries. I love tutoring math, science, and physics. I enjoy getting to know students and their strengths and areas of opportunities regarding learning. I believe that all students should have the confidence in their ability to succeed in the classroom. I am a tutor because I am...

...graduated from the University of Catania, PhD candidate in biophysics at the University of Dundee, and space pirate currently based on planet earth. I was part of the PHOQUS project, working with optical tweezers for biological applications. After having failed to evolve my optical tweezers into light-sabres, I devolved my spare time to science communication. Sometime along the way, I have lived in Belgium, studying photovoltaics, and in Germany, doing a bit of chemistry. I...

I am a professional scientist with multiple years of experience in the biopharmaceutical field. I have spent time in the classroom with elementary aged students and am comfortable with this age group. I am also familiar with AP classes and ACT/SAT preparation. I look forward to sharing my love of learning with students and helping them achieve academic goals!

...in French with them as we played, rather than sitting them down for lessons. I try to be as flexible and creative as possible while teaching languages so that students understand how exciting it is to be able to communicate in more than one tongue. I want to be as helpful to my students as possible, so I welcome a collaborative relationship with students and parents such that the learning is best tailored to each...

...am a recent graduate from the University of Washington's interdisciplinary Bioengineering program. This is a highly competitive program that requires proficiency in nearly all areas of high school and college level science and mathematics subjects, which is why I chose to teach these subjects on the Varsity Tutors platform in 2018 (my freshman year of college). When I'm not tutoring, I like to spend my time running, hiking, reading, coding, and doing research. If there's...

...goal is to help students reach the point where they won't just be able to ace exams, but will in fact be able to teach material back to me, since that is the sign of true understanding. When I see someone's face light up when a complicated set of ideas is distilled into a viscerally understandable (and exciting!) bite-sized concept, I get a sense of fulfillment like nothing else. Learning math or science is all...

...for STEM while attending Montessori school. As I continued with my education from a catholic high school to the University of Washington, I found my enthusiasm for problem solving became more and more engrained into my everyday life. I believe that success within any field of knowledge comes from continual curiosity and questioning of the models and methods presented before an individual. My favorite physicist David Hilbert famously spoke "Wir mssen wissen wir werden wissen!"...

I am currently a Master's mechanical engineering student at the University of Washington. I have a BS in ME as well as a minor in math from the UW. Throughout my undergrad and graduate studies, I have taken many math and science courses and built a strong foundation in the field. I am especially comfortable in algebra, calculus, and physics. My other interests include basketball, badminton, and making music.
