I kept their schedules, interacted with parents, supervised activities, and aided the instructors. Last semester, I also tutored an introductory biology course for non-majors at Kenyon College. I sat in on lectures...

...individuals. It is my feeling, that one must offer a student choices, versus dictates or commandments, in terms of what they must or must not do, within the context of the learning environment. The student will thereby become more motivated to learn, his or her own, respective subject matter at hand. An instructor should anticipate great things from all of his students, irrespective of a student's talents and abilities. Each student should be treated as...

...such amazing thoughts and ideas that often go unnoticed in their writing because they struggle with how to put words on paper. To learn to write well requires ongoing, detailed feedback from teachers who often have a student load of over 100 kids and simply don't have the time to provide such feedback. That is where I can help. I can work with you on an ongoing basis, giving you constructive feedback and useful suggestions...

I spent time in Dresden, attended a Realgymnasium for a year in Vienna, Austria and most recently worked on fellowship for five months in the German Bundestag.

...issues (such as those related to ADHD), and other mental or health concerns. One of my greatest strengths as a tutor and a teacher is helping students develop the skills to support inner well-being.

...enabled me to learn a broad spectrum of topics that span from history to geochemistry, genetics, and biology. I am however a huge animal lover (hence the 'zoo' in zooarchaeology! Have you been brushing up on your Greek?). Although I spend a significant amount of time in a trench or in the laboratory, one of my favorite aspects of academia is teaching, passing down the tomes of human knowledge to those who come after you. This...

I am a MD PhD from Germany who has been living and working in the US now for more than 2.5 yrs. I love teaching students, seeing them improve themselves while learning. Nothing makes teaching more worth it than creating that spark in a students eye, because he/she either really understood something or is just fascinated with the topic and wants to know more.

...in the social sciences, especially political science. Oftentimes, a lack of confidence in their own ability will hold a student back from achieving their goals. I believe that supplementing a student's academic self-esteem leads to their continued and independent success.

As an ME student at MIT, I've learned a lot about math and science, and I'd love to share that knowledge with students here. I've taught over thirty students in standardized test preparation, English, German, and various kinds of math and science.

...tutor. I took the test in April 2016 and scored a 740 out of 800. That's a 97th percentile score, one that I'm very proud of -- but I only got there by studying diligently. My aim in tutoring the GMAT is to give back to others and give some advice along the way that I wish I'd had. Working with me, we'll work not just on the core concepts and test-taking strategies, but also...
